Italy America
Society to Meet

Invitations are now being
issued by the Italy America So
society of Washington to cele-
brate George Washington
Evening on Thursday. Febru-
ary 25, at the Mayflower.
The society is taking this
means of making a contribu-
ton to the George Washington
Bicentennial celebration and Sc
lected this date, which is the
anniversary of the surrender of
Vincennes, Ind, to george
Rogers Clark. whose success
was due largely to the assist
ance given him by the Italian.
Francisco Vigo. This surrender
is considered by many to he
one of the most dramatic
events of the Revolutionary
War. without which the vast
territory northwest of the Ohio
would not have passed to the
Colonies under the treaty Of
peace with Great Britain.
Interesting Program
The program that evening
includes the dancing of two
minuets that are said to be
accurate reproductions of ones
danced for President and Mrs.
Washington, and also the rendi-
ton of Italian music for which
the First President had a
preference and other music OF
that period by Hopkinson and
other composers of that time,
including several marches that
were dedicated to George
Washington.
Even the orchestra will be in
strict accordance with ones of
the colonial days and will in
clude a harpsichord that was
in general use at, that time be-
fore the advent of the piano.
Appropriat> ceremonies that
evening will also attend the
presention of an American flag
and an Italian flag to the
society by Miss Alice briggs,
one of the members.
Dancing will follow the pro-
gram.
