some six miles south of Hedrick, has

SIOUX CITY CLUB
BARS THE TANGO

Sioux City, Sept. s.--The tango and
other Objectionable dances that are
immodest. silly and disgusting will be
barred from the dancing floor Of the
Riverside Boat club in the future, was
the decision reached at meeting Of
the board Of directors Of the club.
1--WE have been very lenient !, in the
past in regard to the dances that have
been demonstrated at the club Dances"
said Commodore E. A. Blood, because
at the time Of the introduction Of this
tango none Of them have been really
Objectionable. but this dance is abso-
lutely immoral and vulgar, and so we
are prohibiting it's appearance at the
club dances"
The trouble started Friday night
when several couples started to dance
the tango. Finally one couple became
so violent in their twists and glides
that they were asked to discontinue
dancing. Today several members
Of the board asserted that unless such
dances were barred from the dance
floor that they would not attend the
dances, as they could not expose their
wives and daughters to any such vul-
gar display as was paraded on the floor.
