American Challenges
French Dancers Claim
to Most Beautiful Legs

New York, Aug. 21.-Any one
want to serve on a jury to decide as
to the relative beauty of French
legs and American legs; feminine
legs, of course? Such jury may be
called upon to settle the question,
for Ann Pennington, whose filings
for pink silk tights have provoked
odes from poets, or near-poets, has
taken issue with the statement
made by Mile. Mistinguett, the
noted French dancer, that she pos
sessed the worlds most beautiful
pair of legs.
II never saw Mile. Mistinguett.
said Miss Pennington, but l think
my legs are just as beautiful as
hers; unless some one has been
spooting me. And, besides" she
added, naively, Il know how to use
mine. If Mile. Mistinguett would
like to enter little contest, l would
he more than willing to go in It.
too. l wonder if she would show
them to a jury to decide. l will"
Pearl Eaton, another American
dancer with undoubtedly beautiful
un6erpinning, also declared for an
international beauty contest for legs
and expressed Willingness TO let n
Jury gaze upon hers.

and 1,400 members. The policemen
of this city number approximately
1900.
The question involved at present
was said t. be their right to organize
union officers said, who added that
the purpose of the union is ito lend
such assistance as it best can within
legal lines in protecting the econom-
ic condition of the Boston policemen
and establishing the principle of col

fecting working conditions" The
announcement ADDS that the union lis
exerting its every effort to avoid
friction"
Union officials stated further that
the question of a strike had not been
considered. The Central Labor Union
however, has voted the policemen
support to the extent of a sympa.
thetic strike of $4,000 workers If nee
essary.
Governor Coolidge announced that
he would support the commissioner
in his conduct in the matter.
