the East Chicago Methodist church was

Organized Mems Glass and It's Bene-
fits" There were thirty-two present
last Sunday, and the class bids fair to
become quite a factor of the church
The class has been gradually assem-
bled until it reached proportions which
indicated it was ready to be organized
as a permanent feature of the church.

Although the close of the basket ball
season is but month away it Is evil
dent that the Whiting Owls will carry
off the championship honors in the
heavyweight division. Like other
years they have proven themselves in

tie for some time to come. The battle
for championship honors among the
various high schools of the region
seemingly rests between Gary and

CLASSY PIN ARTISTS.

II records stand for anything Ham
mond maple artists can lay claim to
the classiest five-man team in this neck
of the woods. They have journeyed
all over the region, but have yet to
find anything too good for them. Dur
ing some of the series on local alleys
and out-of-town games they have hung
up some scores that land far above the
average, and when the Hammond pin
men step on the alleys in the A. B. G.
tournament next month 1T is probable
that they will cop off some of the prize
money.

J. A. RATH DEN0UNCES
LOCAL DANCE HALLS

DcloIncing them as menace to
both health and morals. and laying
special stress upon the condition of
the Filipino resort at the corner of
Smith and Hotel streets. James A.
Rath, headworker of the Palama Set
Element, has just completed another
of his many Investigations of the IL
censed dance halls which are in evil
dence throughout the city.
On recent visit to the hall on the
corner of Smith and Hotel streets,
Mr. Rath says that, aside from find
ing that many of the dances were
lewd, that there were a number of
the dancers who were under the
legal age. Il understand" he said,
that there are supposed to be In
spectors for the, dance halls, but 1t
was very evident from what / saw
that no inspectors had visited the hall
in question recently" Another bad
feature of the dance halls is that
many of the women and girls who
dance there are employed by the man
agement and are paid weekly wage
for appearing there each night to
dance with the patrons of the resort.
This creates a class of professional
dance hall girls, something which Ho-
noiulu did not have until recently.
The hall in question is badly lighted,
and with little ventilation, and the
dancers stirring up the dust in the
crowded room makes it an ideal
breeding place for tuberculosis and
other diseases.
THE place is not dance hall, but
dance hell" said Mr.. Rath, land |
intend to take the matter of permit
ting its continuance up with the au-
thorities."
