Red-Fezzed Nobles
In Gala Display of
Pageantry in L.A.
Los Angeles, Jhne 21 (U.R)
A brilliant display of pageantry
by almost 15,000 marching red
fezzed nobles of the Ancient
Order of the Mystic Shrine left
Los Angeles agog today.
In a six - hour parade from
downtown to the huge Memorial
Coliseum. Shriners opened their
26th annual convention yester
day in a mass of color which
awed thousands lining city
streets six deep.
Masonic to Parade
A crowd of 80.000 was in the
coliseum when Imperial Poten
tate Harold Llovd convened the
nobles. More than 125,000 Shrin
ers are here for the conclave. The
Masonic Order plans to hold the
second of three scheduled pa
rades tonight.
Los Angeles citizens, who
watched a seemingly endless pa
rade of snorting camels, clowns,
horses and bands, wondered how
the Shriners could top that first
one.
Humor Undimmed
Despite grey, cloudy skies,
none of the traditional good-nature
and humor of the nobles
was dimmed. Shriners from 67
temples took turns poking fun
at the Los Angeles bus and strike
tieup which ended today. j
Among the conveyances in the I
parade were cable cars of the
San Francisco Shriners, camels
from the Madison. Wis., temple
and antiquated autos with signs
identifying them as units of the
Los Angeles transit lines.
