There has been a blurb in this
column about the ensign flown on
the flagstaff of the Pinafore be-
ing the wrong flag. Then came a
report that we were mistaken and
that it was the right flag. Upon
investigation, we find that the
Pinafore was supposed to be the
commandments ship, with the corn
mandant aboard. The proper flag
under those circumstances is the
Union Jack a flag with a blue
field, with the Cross of St. George
superimposed in red and white.
We didn't mean to be critical. The
presentation was a pronounced
success and we are all for it in
every way.
