YALE AND NEW HAV (Continued from First Page.) “A tinsel pageant this, a puppct-mo- tion, Save as the cleansing fires devotion Reconsecrate our lives to Light Truth.” The prelude was from the ancient chronicles and told of the meeting of Margaret Apienkyn and Ellis Griffith on the occasion of their marriage in 1485, and the scene showed the pro- cession to the altar. Margaret brought with her as a part of her dowry the reversion of the manor of Plas in Yale from which her grandson, John Yale, took the family name for the first time. John Yale was the ancestor of Elihu Yale whose name the college toolk. This scene was put on by the col- lege with the panoply of the age of chivalry, the bride and bridegroom hzve large retinues of men-at-arms, banner-bearers, heralds, pages, maids and members of religious orders. The organizations aiding in the presentation were The School of Medi- cine, The College Choir and Glee club, Saint Mary’s (Catholic) church, The TUnited Church; The Colonial Dames, with the individual assistance of many women and men. The opening episode was of the col- onial period and the first scene showed the arrival of Governor Theo- philus Eaton an dhis party of set- tlers who founded Quinnipia Colony, now New Haven: The Bowl was the rcw-wow place of the Quinnipiac, a tribe which held the land. and the place was supposed to be Fresh Mea- dows, now Morris Cove. The figures of Sachem Momauguin, Gov. Eaton, Rev. John Davenport and Thomas Stanton were portrayed by citizens of prominence. As the scene closed the colonists joined Thomas Stanton in a Puritan hymn and then followed the Indians into the Great Forest. Scene in Branford. The second scene was in the home of Rev. Samuel Russell in Branford, in September, 1701 where a company of ministers from others towns met to talk over the plan of a collegiate school for the colony. Six of the clergymen brought parcels of books. The idea for such a school was ac- ceptable, those present believing that Mother Harvard would give her good will and the General Court would present the matter to London with favor. The parcels of books were presented and so the school was be- gun. The third scene carried the time forward to 1718 and the school having Leen established at Saybrook had been removed two years before (1716) In this revival the students appear in Saybrook to remove the books to New Haven. The sheriff and farm- ers resist this and obstruct movement of the ox-carts brought to carry the hooks. A bridge across a stream on the road to New Haven is cut down by the farmers and the carts have to ford the stream. The first commencement at New Haven was the subject of the fourth scene. The setting was that of the tome of Rev. Mr. Noyes, the rector, <hich was on Elm street near of self- and lege House erected on the site of the rectir’s house the name of “Yale” was first proposed.

The first interlude was undertaken by the Association of Collegiate New Haven. It was entitled Passing of the Arts and Sciences From the Old World to the New” and was allegorical. The school children gave many dances on the green turf, and there were special figures carried out by the older participants. The second episode was of the Revolutionary period of New Haven colony. It opened in the period after the Battles of Concord and Lexington. The local company of militia, per- petuated as the Second Company Gov- Sent direct to F. G.

This scene was a familiar one fo New Haven people as it is re-enacted in part each May when the company holds its annual field day. The scene was put on much more elaborately and with many more actors. Invasion of New Haven, The second scene was that of the invasion of New Haven by the Brit- ish in 1779. Former Governor Bald- win wrote the chapter for this scene. Tts chlef action was that in which Prof. Daggett of Yale took part. The professor had urged defence of New Haven but the volunteers were few. Daggett himself had used a gun and is captured by the British commander. Afterwards his pleas saved the town from being burned, Gen. Garth, the commander saying it was too beautiful a town to burn. Hanging of Nathan Hale. The third scene was the hanging of Nathun Hale, anqd the fourth, the visit of Gen. George Washington to New Haven. The character of Wash.. ington was taken by Dean Jones of the college. This closed the episode of the period. The organizations undertaking the scenes were: The class of 1917; Second Company Governor’s Foot Guards; details from militia companies; the Sons of Voter. ans; the Daughters of the American Fevolution of New Haven, Waterbur Meriden, Ansonia, Derby and - Sey- mour; the Young Women's Christian association; the New Haven Cale. donian club. _The third episode was of the early ninetecnth century. and the chapter Was writtsn around college incidents Of 1841, 1854 and 1855. The first scene ceproduced the famous town and gown riots, for many times the studenis clashed with the townspro- vle often with bloodshed. As: por- traved, the chief scene was that of & football game between sophomiores and freshmen on a corner of the vil- lage green. While it is at its helzt firemen from the town in their red shirts, and with hose, try to break ap the game. A free-for-all fight fol- lows. This was reaiistically carried out.
