played by Norwegians in the devel-

other point of attraction for those
who have never seen dirigible.
But to the thousands Of Morse
Americans born in Norway, or mem
bers of the early Norwegian colonies
in the northwest, the celebration has
its main attraction in the promise
of gigantic reunion, particularly
in the conventions of "Bygdelags" on
June 6.

reunions on that day. each constitu-
ting descendants of Norwegian
community or clan, distinguished by

sored by Morse American churches
