EXCEEDING THE SPEED LIMIT

Chicago papers of Saturday morn
fraternity dance given at the Con-
gress hotel ball room the night be-
fore. The accounts stated that even
ing dress was required of those in at
tendance.
The gorgeous ball room of the Con-
gress is patronized only by the very
wealthy. Surely, the high school fra
ternities of Chicago have reached a
high degree of snobbishness when
they stage social functions in such a
place. Many of the fraternity and
sorority members are of poor parents,
who find it hard task to keep their
offspring in school let alone having
them attend formal dances at the
Congress. Happily for them the
school board of Chicago is on the
