Lacking any women on board an appropriate substitute must be found. To find a suitable maiden a contest is called for. All candidates must appear before the royal committee. Each one is judged on beauty, talent, and charm. There were sev- eral deserving candidates, but only one can wear the title of King Neptune’s Queen. WOG DOG The convening ot King Neptune's Koval Court would be incomplete without the selection of his faithful and trusty companion, affectionately known as Wog Dog. A search, just before the time hon- ored Crossing the Line Ceremonies, is held to determine this Dog of Distinction. Kach potential candidate for the top dog. must compete in the categories of loyalty and fierceness. Knowing a few tricks never hurt either. The competition was tough but one proved to be Dog of Distinction. RENDEZVOUS WITH DESTINY In the vast expanse of ocean lies a mysterious area that mariners know as the Realm of King Nep- tune ... the Equator. As HORNE approached her rendezvous with destiny, not once but twice, plans for this time honored ceremony began. The experienced Shellbacks those who had passed through similar waters in earlier days, prepared to initate the inexperi- enced Pollywogs in the proper respect King Nep- tune. his Queen, the Royal Baby and His Court. This ceremony, in which the Pollywogs endure hardship and humiliation to prove themselves worthy seamen, is carried out. not only by I'.S. Navy and Merchant ships, but by ships of several other nations as well. Its roots date back to viking times when hearty sailors were reported to have carried out severe initiations when crossing certain parallels. HORNE Pollywogs endured the ordeal with brav- ery and entered the ranks with Shellbacks of by-gone days as Brother of the Sea.
