IMPROVISATION
DEMONSTRATION
GIVEN BY HANSEN
OrganiSt EntertGinS Musicale
Section With Talk and
Program.

The organ section OF the indianapolis
Matinee Musicale met Wednesday after
noon in the auditorium of the First Pres
byterian church, when Charles Hansen.
organist and teacher, gave program
which was devoted to imDrovisahons,
which is an art that Mr.. Hansen has
brought to a high degree of proficiency
and which is an important part Of an
organfsts musical education.
The program was preceded by a talk
by Mr.. Hansen in which he said there
were three important points for the I'M
proviser to bear in mind; that the i'm
provisatiOn should not violate any rule
of harmony with which the Organist
should be familiar: that the ORGANISE
should know the standard organ music
of the master composers, and that they
should have a def1Ate purpose in nina
which should control the improvisation
and make it coherent.
The musical illustrations which fol-
lowed included Meditation" a church
prelude; "Andantino," for an OffertOry;
Prayer" Dostlude; improvisation on
the hymn, Holy, Holy, Holy" and
grand chorus. Mr.. Hansen's mastery o.
the organ and organ composition was
much in evidence in these selections. The
program closed with Grleg's Last

ZEN POLICE
REDUCE MENACE
OFDANCE HALLS
Make Extensive Study of De.
linQuent Children, Says
Report.

Miss Clara Burnside supervisor OF the
women's bureau of the Indianapolis pO-
lice department, today declared that the
public dance hall menace as far as young
girls are concerned has, to a large ex-
tent been removed.
In a report just compiled Miss Burn
side declares that delinquent children
have been the subject of extensive study
and Investigation by the police women.
Lack of parental control, it was ofte Z
found, re usually tho causes OF delin-
quency among childrenN
''Thc result of the work at the public
dance halls has been gratifying" says
Miss Burnside. ''In the main the mem
bers of the department have had excel
lent cooperation with the mana cement
and as a result little serious trouble has
arisen. Although the suggestive nature
of some of the popular dances renders
constant supervision necessary, there has
been a big improvement in this respect
over conditions last year"
Police women assigned to the dance
halls have prohibited girls under the age
of 10 from attending the dances without
a cha on. Girls who appear without
chaperons are usually taken to their
homes and the inevitable results of such
practices are brought to the attention of
their parents or guardians.
With reference to the work of police
women in regard to theatefs, the re-
port says the women found it neces-
sary in some instances to request that
vulgar songs and acts be omitted from
the programs in some of the theaters.
This was done, 1t was said, without any
serious protest by the arrangements. Ex-
cellent co operation in this kind of work
was received from the board of indorsers
of motion pictures for Juveniles, the re-
port said.
Conditions that have arisen in some
Of the local restaurants have been most
Objectionable" the report reads. "These
places have become the meeting places
for men and girls and in this respect
have taken the places Of some of the old
wine rooms. Strict supervision has been
maintained over these places and in some
cases arrests have been made"
The report says that some excellent
results were accomplished in the summer
By the supervision of policewomen over
conditions at the amusement parks. Al
though the problems confronting the
women were many and serious, there was
a noticeable improvement over the condi-
tions of the former year, according to the
report.
with the end Of the war, many of
the problems involving soldiers have
been eliminated" the report continues
but there has followed a serious moral
condition with which we are constantly
confronted. The public attitude toward
the soldiers destroyed all reserve and
convention and created a familiarity and
lack Of restraint which still exists among
girls and some of the former service
men,
