MAY NOT
DANCE in
CHURCH HALL
Objection to ReCtOr'S Social
Program Causes Him to
Change Plan
WANTED YOUNG FOLK
TO ENJOY THEMSELVES

No definite action has been taken
by the Rev. Raymond L. wolven,
vicar of Old swedes Church, to or
ganize a dancing class for the benefit
of the younger members of the parish.
1t was the intention of Mr.. Wolven
to organize the class and have those
who cared to join it and be instructed
in dancing at a nominal cost The
class was to meet at the parih house
once a week and a social evening was
to be spent by its members the same
as on the many other occasions which
are held each month at the parish
house to bring out the social side of
the church work and to create inter-
est in the parish. There was no in
tention of starting crusade against
public dance halls by using the parish
house as a place where young people
could enjoy themselves away from the
influence Of places where the turkey
trot, the "houn dog trot" and dances
of like character are permitted.
Following the announcement that
the organization of a dancing class
at the parish house was under con-
sideration, some discussion was
dIpuotu anu lululSltIh ali ONIl tut
country took the matter up. some Of
them writing to Vicar Wolven that
they were opposed to the plan. They
did not understand what was intend
/ ed by Mr.. Wolven. Others wrote that
/ they were heartily in favor of 1t and
thought that it would be a good thing
to extend the scope of the class and
really run it as a competitor of the
/ public dance hall
Mr. Wolven, when seen by a report
J er for THE EVENING JOURNAL to-
/ day, declined TO make any statement
regarding the dancing class, except
to say that it had not been organ
4 lied and he did not known now wheth-
er it would be. and that his intention
in proposing it was simply to carry
out the social work of the parish and
make It as attractive as possible for
the younger members Of his parish TO
gather at the parish house and enjoy
themselves

UULE HALkS
BIG GAME MAY
NOT BE PLAYED

At meeting Of representatives of
the Fort DUPONT and Olympia football
teams last night, the statement made
by Manager Cole that Olympia would
play Fort DUPONT on any field and at
any time for a purse Of 500. was the
subject Of a heated discussion. and it
is believed that the teams may not
meet for the third game.
On explaining his statement as pub
lished IN THE EVENING JOURNAL,
Mr. Cole said.
I'm the excitement following last
Saturdays game in this city and fol-
lowing my being approached by
Fort DUPONT supporter and former
member Of the team ! did publish the
statement attributed to me- but in so
doing. failed to insert the words "on
any neutral grounds" still stand
ready TO make good this declaration
and will meet Fort DUPONT on any
neutral grounds for any purse named
by the supporters of the team. Out of
respect to the Fort DUPONT manage
ment, and out OF regard for the mom-
bers of my own team at the same
time, who by the way have to bear
the brunt of my actions I'm the game
do retract from the first statement"
William Ball manager and hacker
Of the soldier eleven. takes the stand
that the game, II played. should be
played at Fort DUPONT or Manager
Cole should retraot his statement
that he would play there. Mr.. Balls
statement of the controversy is as fol-
lows:
1--WE took Mr. Coles statement as Il
read and certainly could not read the
intmated word neutral" AT last
nights meeting we asked that nc
/ either play us or retract from his
published statement We offered an
! absolute square deal and protection ON
the government field and offered tc
supply three neutral officials. We
certainly regret that the football fol-
lowers of Delaware City win not have
an opportunity of seeing the soldier
team in action against the team that
twice defeated them In Wilmington
for we feel sure that a game on our
own battlefield would tell a different
story
Summing up the matter IL seems
that the break is over the financial
side OF the game. Olympia and the
Soldier have always been n drawing
card With the teams on neutral
grounds. they would undoubtedly draw
one of the largest crowds of the sea-
son. This Is what Manager Cole Is
really after, and has offered to let the
winning team take all gate receipts
and the 5000 purse
On the other hand the Soldiers
want to play the game i'm Delaware
City and have offered to give Olym'
pia a guard mount around the field II
desired, as the Delaware City fans
want to see the game.

MR. EpsrEIN AGAIN LECTuREs

The third of the series of lecture
recitals to be given a. the Misses
Hebbs' School by Herman Epstein,
was given yesterday afternoon. The
subject of the recital was an inter
probation of the story of Die Wal
kure, the second opera Of Wagner's
'Nibelunger Ring"
AS is Mr. Epstein's usual custom
when lecturing on the Wagner operas,
the story was told partly by word and
partly by reading from the libretto,
with instrumental selections through
out the story His rendering of "Sieg-
mund's Love Song" was greeted with
great enthusiasm. AS is Die Wal
kure' the most beautiful opera of the
Ring" so the Love Song" is
thought by many to be the loveliest
part of die Walkure."
The next lecture will be given on
Wednesday afternoon, December IL
at three fifteen o'clock. at which time
the third act of die Walkure" will be
interpreted by Mr.. Epstein.
