TO OUR FRIENDS
PALMER GOLD STORAGE
i
r
Pasadena’s world famous Tourn
ament of Roses started out in 1886
as an informal procession of car
riages bedecked with the blossoms
at hand and driven over a pre
| arranged route.
The idea was the brain-child of
Charles Frederick Holder who, as
the new zoology teacher from the
east, was impressed by the abun
dance and beauty of flowers bloom
ing in mid-winter. Mr. Hunter’s
suggestion that the Valley Hunt
| club of Pasadena sponsor an in
formal display thereof was re
ceived enthusiastically and New
Year’s Day was selected as ap
propriate and convenient.
So, what developed into the
Tournament of Roses began as
; “an informal procession of car
riages’’ on January 1, 1886. It was
such a success that preparations
and formalities increased. Floral
floats made their debut and the
order of the day—the parade, com
petitive sports, climaxed by the
grand ball in the evening—was es
tablished.
Dedicated in 1923, the original
seating capacity of the Rose Bowl
Stadium (85,000) exceeded the to
tal permanent population of Pasa
dena and recent enlargement per
mitted a paid attendance of 100,234
for the football classic January 1,
1950.
Likewise, the Tournament of
Roses has attained world renown
as a floral festival, with literally
' millions of blossoms bedecking an
•ver-increasing number of floats,
annually thrilling hundreds of thou
sands of spectators along a parade
route seven miles long.

Unusual New Year's ;
Customs Are Still >
Observed by Scots
Neither gaiety nor giddiness
quite describe some of the odd and
ancient customs that color the
New Year season in Scotland.
On January 12 at Burghead, Mor
ayshire, they preserve the pagan
Yule-fires with “The Burning of !
the Clavie.” The “Clavie” is a tar
filled barrel, which is lit with a !
flaming brand and carried round
the town. It is then rolled down a
local hillside where villagers
scramble for the burning embers
as luek-bringers.
The men of Stonehaven, Kin
cardineshire, march through the
streets swinging Fireballs of tal
lowed rope and, all over Scotland,
bonfires blaze, burning the Old
Year out.
But you have to take the trip to
the remote Shetland Islands to see
what is perhaps the finest Fire Fes
tival of all. It’s called “Uphelly
a’ ’’ and takes place at the end of
January in Lerwick. Here a replica
! of a Norse galley is towed to the |
! pierhead complete with crew of
j Vikings in helmets and mail, carry
ing flaming torches. A gun is fired
from the fort, rockets soar from
the ships in harbor and at the sig
i nal of a bugle call, four- or five
| hundred spark-trails arc down the
night, as the torches are tossed in
I to the galley.
