Excerpt from The Celebration of Nevada's Semicentennial of Statehood Jeanne Elizabeth Wieb On the last day of the month of October, 1864, the State of Nevada was admitted to the Union. The semicentennial of that event was celebrated in Reno under the auspices of the Nevada Historical Society by appropriate exercises on October 29, 30, 31, and November 1, 1914.In preparation for the event a self-constituted committee consisting of Mayor F.J. Shair, Mr. E.F. Lunsford, Mr. F.R. Pargellis, Mr. H.F. Alciatore, Prof.S. C.Feemster, Mr. and Mrs. W.M. Gottwaldt, Supt. B.D. Billinghurst, Dr. W.W. Hess, Mrs. M.L. Golden, Dr. R.Adams, Mr. R.L. Fulton, and Miss Jeanne Elizabeth Wier worked out the program and arranged for its rendition. The features selected for the celebration were a historical pageant, a pageant ball, a pioneer luncheon, public school exercises and a Sunday evening patriotic service. Later the University football game with the Barbarians, Saturday afternoon, and the Shriners entertainment at the Majestic Theater, Friday and Saturday evenings, were included in the celebration. Both of these events had been previously scheduled for those dates and hence occupied the best places on Admission Day, October 31, and Admission Day eve, October 30, to the exclusion of the truly patriotic part of the program. The historical pageant was thereby forced to take Thursday afternoon, the 29 th, for its date, Avhile the Pioneer luncheon fell on Friday.
