SAD MICHIGAN DUTCH PLAN GAY FESTIVAL
HOLLAND, Mich, May 17 (U.P). The Dutch of Western Michigan open their 13th annual Tulip Time Festival tomorrow with a gaiety masking sadness over fate of their homeland Officials looked to the skies for sunshine to bring to full bloom the! 3.000 000 tulips of many colors that invariably a‘tract most attention .o the celebration They expected fewer than a third of the blossoms cut when the festival opens with & traditional street scrubbing ceremony, but anticipated that by mid-| week all tulip buds would bloom. Presence of Red Cross boxes for relief contributions and a planned protest meeting against Germany's invasion of the Netherlands constituted the only outward recognition of the homeland's fate.
