Following a conference with man
ayers of moving picture theatres, the
members of the public building and
l,w committees of City Council, de.
eided last night to postpone action or
the proposed ordinance before Counol'
regulating the operation Of such places
Of amusement
The moving picture men partidiarly
objected to the clause in the aeasure
which prohibits patrons of theatres
standing in the approache BY ap-
nroaches is meant the bacfpart of the
heatre, in the rear of theseats where
space is marked off Usually by a
railing and where .peone stand when
he seats are filled ne picture men
say that to allow thisclause to remain
the ordinance weild work hard
hip on them, andnothing would be
gained by It, as tose standing in the
rear of a theatr, would be safer and
nearer the doorn case of panic, than
those seated
Some of tn COuncilmen also were
opposed TO ts ordinance in its present
shape. and,ts a result the proposed
ordinance viii not be presented for
it's finsreading at the REGULAR meet
ng ofcouncil.

of the dance. The Knickerbocker
Club is noted for effective settings
to it's dances. but the background last
evening surpassed previous novel and
pretty effects. Continental buff and
blue bunting strips, interlaced in bas-
ket-weave. ceilinged the room, allow
ing the incandescent lights to shine
through its woven mass with pretty
effect. One end of the hall was a
scenic effect, showing Mt Vernon.
with the grassy slope leading up to
the home Of Washington.
During the MT Vernon" waltz. the
only lights I'm the hall were those
shining through the windows of Mt.
Vernon, a novelty that was most ar
tistic. Another feature OF the dance
was the "Hatchet Promenade" as the
promenaders made the circuit Of the
hall to the melody OF Maryland" I"
they acquired favors Of Washington
hatchets and colonial blunderbusses,
so that the dancers made a rather
formidable array for the rest Of the
evening.
The dance program covers were
pictured with George Washington for
the young women, an Martha Wash
ington for the men. A substantial
collation. was served. The committee
included II. L. Whitford, chairman;
