"TT will be a knightly occasion on Thursday, June 10, when in honour of the official birthday of the Queen, one of London’s recurring displays of pageantry will take place," ‘says the BBC’s Overseas Press Bulletin. "The Brigade of. Guards will carry out the traditional Trooping the Colour on the Horse Guards Parade. The Queen herself, on horseback, will take the salute at this solemn and colourful ceremony, when the colour to be carried will be that of the 1st Battalion of the Coldstream Guards, And the Queen in tunic -of scarlet crossed with the blue riband of the Garter will wear in her black tricorn hat the red plume of this regiment. The Duke of Edinburgh will ride as Colonel of the Welsh’ Guards. Richard Dimbleby will describe the spectacle for listeners to the General Overseas Service of the BBC, at 10.30 p.m., N.Z. time."
