children's committee held in the Of
fee Of Superintendent D. H. Christen-
sen yesterday afternoon. A meeting
of ali the principals of the public
schools was called, and the entire pro-
gram was read and discussed Later
Captain Joseph +. Game, marshal in
charge of the display, met with his
corps of eighteen Heutenants and dis
cUssed the general scheme with them.
There will be a grand surprise for
the President when he hears the ring
ing college yell of old Eli from the
Threats of 500 High school students
and as many students of the Uniyer-
sity of Utah. Boys of both schools
have been drilled in Yale yells, and
viii respond to signal for the cheer
ing
Captain Game has arranged a sys-
tenn of flag signals which will be Civ
en- close attention by his lieutenants,
ana by the scores Of other leaders
along the line from Q to state streets.
Brigham street, and all the cross
streets from the north will be closed
to traffic at o'clock. The children
viii assemble along Brigham street at
3 o'clock, and from then until $50
o'clock the formation of the lines will
be in progress. Promptly at $50
O'Clock the lines will be closed to all,
and the review of the President will
come half an hour later. The children
viii be dispersed by signal
Thete now appears to be grave
doubt that the Living Flag will
be seen by the President. Supervisors
William A. Wetzell and John s. Welch
have gone over the ground thoroughly
and gave it out last night that unless
a stand is erected either I'm street
OF A street. the spectacle will lose its
force. The slope is not sufficient in
elther street, they say, to give a real
lstic view of the flag, and they declare
that an appropriation of about $500
must be made today or the Living
Flag" will probably not be seen, In
J,
the rest along Brigham street. This
was to have been one Of the big fea-
lures of the participation of the chill
dren, and an effort is being made to
allowed to pass by If it can possibly
be avoided
