Dancing Is not only pleasant amusement
 which has been popular from the earl jest periods in the worlds history, put Is beneficial exercise, and adds to ] the grace of carriage, the confidence
 of the person in public, and renders
 the dancer sure of himself in any so- ciety. And learning is simple mat ter. It is necessary only to take a few private lessons, six is usually sui ficient, and you have mastered all that is necessary for you to know to ap- pear at ease in any assembly.

TWO DEMOCRATIC MAYORS
 WERE ELECTED AND WHY?

Two tried and true champions of the public welfare have been elected mayors of two Connecticut cities this week.. willimantic for the fourth time chose Daniel Dunn her chief executive and Rockville honored i.- self by selecting Judge Lyman Tin gier. Each executive is a sturdy rep- lresentative- of militant democracy. Both have been tried in positions of official trust and neither have been found wanting. Each served in the last two sessions of the Connecticut house of representatives. Tingier as leader of the minority and Dunn as [ his alert and faithful lieutenant. Both i, were always on their jobs. Every measure that aimed for the we'll be- ing of the people as a whole, received their earnest support. They do not . belong to that class of professed Democrats who are found training i with the enemy. when the latter !needs votes.

While the reelection of Mayor Dunn was foregone conclusion because of his splendid record of public Service it was not thought that Judge Tin- gier would receive such a. handsome vote owing to the vigorous contest waged by the socialists. The Re- publicans hoped to drift into power. their assumption being that the Democratic vote would be divided be- tween Judge Tingier and the social ist. But in this. happily for Rock vile, they were mistaken. Incident ally the result in both places shows that when the people have an oppor- s-.nity to support honest men, with a good record of public performance, there need be little fear of the social
 ists.
 In Willimantic, where the social ists conducted an active campaign,

GYMNASTIC TOURNEY.
Georgetown Props and Business High
to Clash in Athletic Events.

1t was announced last night at the
Georgetown Prep School that gymnas-
tic tourney in all probability will take
place between the Blue and Gray props
and the representatives Of the Business
High School Of this city. in the Ryan
Gymnasium While 1t has not been
definitely settled to date. 1t is very prob
able that the affair will take place jan
uary 20.
The list OF events will be about the
same as those which have been witnessed
at the carnivals Of this kind held for the
Georgetown students during the past four
years. One Of the features Of the meet
will be boxing and wrestling bouts. in
which tho participants will be judged on
points only. Other probable events are
as follows: Shot put, high jump, running
jump from the flying rings, 20-yard dash,
o0-yard hurdle and a relay race.
DR.. Hudson and Prof. Joyce, who are
in charge OF teh affair, are most en-
thuHastic concerning its success and feel
confident that 1t will not only prove in
teresting to witness. but will further the
interest OF track athletics at both institu-
tions.
Beginning this morning the embryo coll
legians at Georgetown. will start regular
practice for the coming indoor season.
Before Christmas the candidates were
out for nearly three weeks and that the
material on hand Is OF exceptionally good
interscholastic caliber.

LEAGUE
WANTS CONCESSIONS
President Barrow Says Re-
quest Will Be Made to Ma
tionaI Commission.

NEW YORK, January 1.-THE Eastern
League, according to an ofncial state
ment made today by President Edward
Barrow. has no Intention OF making war
on tho major leagues and the National
Associations. President Barrow says
that the club owners Of his organization
desire certain concessions from the ma
tional commission and shortly will make
their requests to the governing body.
Although I intend to look after and
protect the interests Of the Eastern
League In every possible manner" said
President Barrow. IT do not plan to ad-
wise or try to lead its members into
warfare on organized ball. always
have been an advocate of organized ball.
and believe the great advance t.e game
has made in the past has been due to
alright organization.
1.-THE Eastern League and. I presume,
the American Association has q few rea-
sonable requests to make to the national
commission regarding classification and
drafting rules. We shall try to present
our case in q manner to command a re-
spectful hearing. and whatever the COM
missiOners may see fit to do for us we
shall try to be satisfied with. At any
rate, this talk Of war and withdrawal
from organized ball is silly and unauthor-
lied by any member Of the Eastern
League.

This comes to the base ball readers OF

''This whole furry arose out of the
Strengthening up of the Havenor real es-
tate deal in Chicago. That action was
not a sale by Havenor, as generally re-
ported. Mr.. Archambault, Mr.. Harmon

names in connection with it, and from
that sprung all the talk Of war and
claims and l don't know what.
1.-THE Chicago land purchase stands to-
day just where 1t has always stood, and
there has not been the slightest change
in ownership of the land in question.
1.-THE American Association has not
made any plans for asking for higher
classification: neither have we made any
move toward seeking the abolshing of
the draft Informally we have talked
over these affairs and feel that the asse-
citation is entitled to a better ranking
than some OF the lesser leagues who now
enjoy the same classification (class AZ,
but uD to date no one has been empow-
cred to treat with any one connected with
the national commission over them.
1.-THE subject will undoubtedly come up
at the annual meeting in Chicago jan

body has decided upon the proper course
to take under the circumstances there
will be nothing having any semblance of
official sanction or worth giving to the

HATcHETITES' MEET.
Penn and Indians Carded for Fea-
ture Relay Race.

With the slim chances for a federal
meet this year the prospects of the
George Washington gameA are brighter
than ever. A sufficient number OF teams
are already lined up to insure to the pub
lie q good return for their money. OF
course, none OF the races are definitely
arranged as yet, but 1t is very likely that
the Indians and Penn will struggle with
each other. Last year in the Hopkins
games the red men carried off the VIC
tory In two miles over their rivals, and
this year they are ready to defend their
laurels. At the same time 1t must be
remembered that Pennsylvania had a
crippled team last year. and will try to
wipe out the defeat in the coming event.
In any case such q race would not fail
to cause q great deal of excitement for
the people of Washington. The Indians
have always been popular IN Washington
and If Manager Keats can pull! on the
race the attendance should be materially
increased. Another race which should

NIELSEN TO STAY.
Chances Are He Will Again

NEBRASKA OFFER REFUSED
Would Not Consent to Become q

Prospects at present seem very good
for the return of Coach Nielsen to
Geor. ,town. It was thought at one
time that 1t would develop that he was

or that he would coach at Nebraska,
but subsequent developments have
proven that 1t is likely that neither will
be the case.
athletics at the University of Nebraska,
at the intercollegiate meeting few
days ago, and was told by him that he
would be offered the position. under the
condition that he would steach classes
in law. This Nielsen refused to do. and
there is where the situation hangs at
present.
/ The rules Of the conference forbid the
hiring OF a professional coach, unless
he is a member Of the faculty, and as
Nebraska cannot go against It, ana as
Nielsen refuses to coacn under tnaa
chances are mighty bright for him to
be seen again on the Hill Top next
season.
The Georgetown coach would undoubt.
eddy like to have charge Of the team at
his alma mater. but It Is hardly likely
that he will throw away some OF the
other chances he has to become q pro
lessor. anyway he has signifed his IN,
tention not to do SO. Several have urged
him to accept the proposition for year
or SO, but he seems reluctant about tax
ing up classroom duties.
The only conclusion to draw from the
fact that he probably will not be at Ne
braska is this: That he told Capt DALEY
some time ago that he could do nothing
until after the Nebraska AFFAIR was set
tied, but II that school failed to waive
on its ruling that none but q member
Of the faculty could coach. he would S'I give give
ices, and as il is hardly likely that the
western school will set itself against the
ruling OF the conference. the only con-
clusiOn to draw is that Nielsen Will be
back at Georgetown next year.
II he does go back to the Blue and Gray
school next fall, it is almost q certainty
that he will turn out another champion.

as he had this year and with his system
