Nine Spectacula
Part of Easter Su
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.P.) Part of New
will be an indoor affair this
York's famous Easter parade
year.
Next Sunday, at least nine
style "spectaculars" in various
hotels will compete with the tra
ditional toe -bruising show on
Fifth Avenue.
Fveryone attending the new
style shows, with lunch includ
ed, is helping a cause from the
American Society for Prevention
of Cruelty to. Animals to the
Sister Elizabeth Kenny Founda
tion. Admission ranges from S5 to
S25 per person champagne is
included in the latter charge.
The benefit shows aren't new,
but each year their numbers in
crease as each year the Fifth
Avenue association and the New
York Police Department attempt
to curb the hi-jinks on the ave
nue. This year, for instance, is
the seventh for the Kenny lunch
and children's fashion show.
Expect 2 Million Paraderi
The association said it expect
ed about two million persons to
jam the avenue ... a contrast
to the few hundred strollers who
turned out when the parade had
its beginnings at the lower end
of Manhattan Island more than
a century ago.
As the city grew, the churches
and fashionable residences mov
ed uptown. Some sources say
fhat by the 1870's the parade
was pretty well established, but
it wasn't "until the 1880's that
the newspapers began to give it
much space.
The Easter parade had its un
usual attractions early in its
history. One account of the pa
rade in the 1920's told of a party
of "cigarette smoking girls'
Sorority Conducts
Memorial Service
A memorial service for Mrs.
Marjorie Butler was read at a
meeting of Delta Kappa Gam
ma, sorority for women in edu
cation, held April 6 in Grants
Pass. It was a breakfast session
at the Grants Pass Junior High
school cafeteria 'with Epsilon
chapter, Medford, O m" i c r o n
chapter, Roseburg and Alpha
chapter, Klamath Falls, as
guests of Omega chapter, Grants
Pass.
The memorial service was
read by Mrs. Ivah Dobbs Mur
ray of Medford. During the busi
ness meetings which followed
the breakfast. Epsilon chapter
voted a contribution to a schol
arship fund which has been
established in Mrs. Butler's
memory.
Miss Princess Egbert of Grants
Pass was in charge of the pro
gram for the breakfast, and
Founders' day was observed.
Delta Kappa Gamma was or
ganized in 1929, and candles
were lighted in honor of the 12
women founders.
An original devotional selec
tion written by Miss Egbert was
given by Mrs. Alyce Young,
Mrs. Helen Bell, Miss Fern
Trull and Miss Mildred Mateer.
Table decorations in the Eas
ter motif were the work of Mrs.
Esther Fox of the Grants Pass
Junior High school art depart
ment. Mrs. Melvin Lattie
Hostess for HEC

club of Phoenix Grange will
meet Wednesday, April 17, at

who strolled past St. Thomas
and St. Patrick's cathedral "puff
ing with assurance and invoking
the sensation for which they
had hoped."
Anti-Depression Colors Worn
The-parade survived the Wall
Street crash, and a United Press
dispatch on the 1931 event be
gan this way:
"Trying to forget the winter's
dark days of bread lines and
bad business, the women in to
day's Fifth Avenue Easter
parade wore anti-depressipn col-ors-vivid,
geranium reds, emer
ald greens and blue jades."
As the parade grew, commer
cialism and publicity stunts
crept in. Women tried to outdo
each other in zany hats, and
it wasn't unusual to see a woman
wearing a bird cage with a live
bird in it, or an Easter basket
with live bunny.
Four years ago, New York's
civic-conscious decided the pa
rade was losing its dignity com
pletely and something should be
done. The association, the Police
Department, the clergy and ra
dio and television executives
joined to curb the stunts and
commercialism.
Has the parade lost any of its
appeal as a result?
"We doubt it,", said William
Sloane, as'sociation secretary.
"The hi-jinks of a few years
ago prevented the true purpose
of the parade to be a prome
nade of fashions."

Basic School Fund Measure
Now in Education Committee
By FRANCES LITTRELL
Salem The legislature has
been 12 weeks in session; 28 bills
were passed and sent to Gov
ernor Holmes in this, the 12th
week.
The Senuate passed Senate
Joint Resolution 9 for the addi
tion of one member to the Sen
ate and one to the House, mak
ing 31 members in the Senate
and 61 in the House; however,
it's expected to die in the House
because of the Democratic ma
jority in the House, and the Dem
ocrats are against it. They want
a lieutenant governor which
they feel will do the same thing.
The Republicans don't think so.
The tax program was not pre
sented as promised last "week.
However, it is now promised
within a week to ten days, and
so it goes. The Republicans in
the House made another valiant
effort to get a separate surtax
repeal bill acted on and tried to
force it out of the committee
ond on to the floor. It was not
a success they could muster
only 21 votes and it required 40.
We lost one Republican's vote
and gained a Democrat's vote.
The calendars for the last
three days of this week have
been light, in fact we have had
just four third readings for each
day.
The Senate passed the Key
District bill to re-distribute the
basic school funds. It is now in
the House education committee.
There will be a public hearing
held, and it will be the big is
sue before the House this week.
The Littrells received one of
the most coveted of invitations
this last week, for Kosher lun
cheon at Rep. Sam Wilderman's
apartment. We were included
with members of the press from
the Statesman.

Thursday night of last week
the largest and perhaps the gay
est party of the session, the
"Timber Bust" party, was held
at the American Legion club.
A group of legislative wives,
with the assistance of the Forest
Service, spent Thursday A. M.
transforming the club into a
pretend forest. We used several
truck loads of fir, cedar, ferns
and other greens while doing it.
Guests came dressed in jeans,
plaid shirts, and cottons. Any
man who wore a tie had it
promptly cut off at the dooi-
and each and every guest was
sprayed with insecticide upon
arriving at the party. '
. This party had some criticism;
however, when you are here,
you realize it is a good thing.
It always comes at the time of
the session when political lines
are definitely drawn. Tempers
are strained to the breaking
point and then the Timber
Bust party. We all work togeth
er and for it, and we forget for
the time being whether we are
Republican or Democrat and we
all have fun together and so it
clears the air.
Tony Lausman was missed
this year; however, his son, Jer
ry, was here and the legislators
were pleased to meet the son
of the Timber Bust party's most
ardent supporter.
This Monday eve there will be
a public hearing on HB 616; we
refer to it as the "Big Bertha."
