Shrine Convention
Seattle Be Highly
Colorful & Unique
The uniformed units of the My
stic Shrine will be in the lime
light as the star features of the
three-night illuminated spectacle
to be staged at the University of
Washington stadium and the ad
joining Montlake canal, during
the Shrine Convention, Seattle,
July 13 to 16. said officials in
charge recently, for publication.
Stars of the radio and screen
will share topline honors with
the Shrine bands, serenaders,
chanters, oriental bands, merri
makers, drum and bugle corps,
and the drills and maneuvers of
the dramatic patrols.
Hundreds of historical vessels
and decorated floats will partici
pate in the water pageant. Bril
liant electrical effects will trans
form the campus into a mammoth
amphitheatre. Myriads of color
ed lights wiH gleam from be
neath the waters of the canal.
One of the most spectacular
units to take part in the conven
tion will be the White Horse pa
trol of Abu Bekr, Sioux City, Io
wa. Thirty-two snow white Ara
bian horses, mounted by expert
horsemen will perform marvelous
feats. The horses have been train
ed to kneel, bow, lie down, and
dance. Their stunts on a teeter
totter are clever comedy.
The camel-mounted patrol of
Zor, the Mandan Indian patrol,
the spearmen of Aloha, the veiled
sheiks of Damascus, the Mounties
or A1 Azhar, are a few of the
most colorful units that are plan
ning to take the Pacific North
west by storm.
Of the 159 Shrine temples of
North America which will be re
presented at the convention,
more than 50 are planning to
send units.
It is expected that more than
100,000 visitors will be in Seattle
during Shrine week, many of
whom are planning to go on to
Alaska.
