De EPAUW, BUTLER
ELEvENS CLASH

Tiger and Bulldog were to scrap it
out today at Irwin field
Once more intrastate football rival
ry was keyed up to IA high pitch, and
students, alumni and friends of De
Pauw and Butler swarlned to Irving
ton TO root for their favorite team.
The old gold colors Of De Pauw and
the blue and white colors Of Butler
were prominently displayed on the
downtown streets this morning as the
grid hosts milled around and worked
up enthusiasm for the conflict OF the
afternoon on the Irvington gridiron.
Statewide interest was being taken
in the Struggle and packed bleachers
greeted the padded warriors when
they trotted out on the field.
Butler was represented by its usual
large following OF students, alumni
and townspeople. but De Pauw was
not without its roofing hosts. Indian
apols alumni OF the GreencastIe insti-
tuition prepared several days FOR the
event nnd they were present in mum
bers
Students and townspeople from
Greencastle started reaching the city
at 10 a. IN. and they swarmed in by
motor, interurban and steam road.
Butler faced the task OF turning
back De Pauw in order to remain in
the State title running. Illinois
and Wabash are among the teams de-
feated by the Pagemen this fall, and
they will have the opportunity next
Saturday of battling Notre Dame for
the Indiana grid championship IL they

Out of this chaos, however, comes
Americas first constructive individual
style movement. For while American
Vomanhood isn't going to let Partisan
atellers foist ludicrous dresses on her,
neither, apparently, is she going to
let the youthful flapper be the arbiter
of the apparel question.
Seven inches from the ground-that
Is the skirt length the American de
facto style dictators have decreed.
That's a big come-down, but the re-
suit is skirt that not only modifles
the French styles, but retains the
freedom of movement that was one of
the greatest advantages Of the alb
brevlated dresses.
War Raging
The most active warfare over the
French skirt is raging in Los Angeles.
Its beaches are bringing flocks of the
fashionable and wealthy in for the
winter. They favor the shorter
skirts. Between these and the
movie stars-who must keep ahead of
the styles-the long-short skirt con
troversy Is bound to meet an acid
test this winter.
New York, however, sees a predom-
nance of long skirts in the smart

AMERICAN WOMEN REVOLT AGAINST PARIS DICTATION
Despite oFnch

Rebellion is rampant in America,
Americas women have revolted
against Paris fashion dictates.
And in casting off their bondage to
the whims of the French modiste,
American women are creating dis
tinctly American fashions.
These facts were obtained in ma
tional survey made today by NEA
Service.
Length Of skirts caused it all.
The long period Of freedom Of the
knees was decreed ended by Paris
some time ago.
Furthermore, this long skirt

the ukase.
The word was broadcasted through
out America. The modistes. began
designing them along "streamline"
specifications. The department stores
put the long skirt dresses and suits
on display everywhere and began to
stock up for the usual fall rush.
But the rush failed to nShteriaiize,

in open revolt. They do not want the

They insist that this is the era Of
dress according to individual ideas.
Kansas City, Helena, Mont. Port
land, Ore, Seattle, Wash, and San
Francisco, are other cities reporting a
revolt against the long, clingtng Pari-
sian skirts.
Down in Atlanta. Ga. the return of
the long skirt has been hailed with de-
light Many take it there as the end
of the jazz period in American his

The lowering of skirts to the seven
inch height also is declared by some
economic students to be a sign that
the American woman, having won her
long fight for the ballot, is now de-
termined, to do her own thinking re-
garding clothes.

The mayor said he told Rikhoff to
call in the head of theatrical book
ing agency which is said by Sourbier
to have furnished the dancers. He
said he had talked with this man him
self Friday and the agent told him
he knew nothing of the dance.
Il don't know what we could do
with the case ie we did get evidence
there was nude dancing" said Rik-
hoff. Il don't know what charge we
could prove
The only charge I can think Of
We could bring against them is one Of
public indecency," said the mayor.
1T would be hard job to prove that
because none of the men present
would be likely to testify about it
and even if they would we'd have to
prove their moral senses were shocked
and I don't believe they'd have stayed
for the dance If they were shocked
Several days ago Sourbier appeared
at police headquarters After he came
from an interview with Rikhoff he
said he had come to see what had
been done about a dance said to hav3
been staged by two nude women at a
night.
Seeks Reason why
There will be some arrests in this
case or I will know the reason why"
said Sourbier. Il gave the police de-
partment the information about this
disgraceful affair last Saturday, and,
as far as I have been able to learn.
there has not even been an investiga-
ton made. If Chief Rikhoff will not
make arrests in this case, will get
some person who will.
Just think Of It, A husband Of
one Of the women passed the hat for
a collection of quarters and half dol
lars while his wife danced nude BE-
fore the men at that banquet.
II understand that the Church
Federation knows about this and
there will be something heard from
that organization If the police depart
ment does not make arrests in this
case. know the names of the wom-
en-, the names Of many Of the men
who were present at the banquet
where the dance occurred, and also
the name of the booking agency which
obtained the dancers"
Rikhoff said Sourbier had been to
see him and he had an investigation
made, but found nothing to warrant
arrests.

do. In order to guarantee to herself
a lasting happiness she must tell her
friend the truth.
If the mans love is as true as she
would lead us to believe, the confess
sion by her would but be a cementing
link in a life of happiness.
1t is human to err. 1t is human to
love. 1t is human to forgive.
In this case it appears that a girl
was merely child led on by the man,
an experienced pervert. She was
barely at the age Of legal account
ability, to say nothing of lack Of
training which would lead to late
development of moral accountability.
II she is good now, truly loves the
man, as she says she does, and en-
deavors to make him loving wife and
a careful mother to his children, she
need have little to fear for the future.

he thought S1.OOO.OOO would be

q have not made up my mind, but
think a million will be enough to pro-
vide all the building we need" he said.

modern.
But I am not quite convinced ii is
necessary to make the new Tomnnson
Hall large enough to seat 10 900 peo-
pie. If that idea is cut down consid-
erably, I think the whole plan ought
to be carried through for a million
dollars"
c. of c. Wants Hall
Some OF the mayors advisers
argued that the city should not build
large public hall. Purchasing
Agent Jesse E. Miller said he did not
favor one seating much more than
$500, because Cadle Tabernacle, with
its 10000 seating capacity. would meet
any need a city auditorium of the
same size would.
At the meeting Thursday, when
the commission made it's report.
James a. Daugherty. representing the
Chamber of Commerce. said he
thought his body would be enthu-
siastic about the larger public hall
plan because it would be the best way
to meet the need for increased con-
vention and exposition facilities down
town. The chamber has been consid-
ering a plan for the erection Of an ex-
position building, but not much prog
ress has been made, It was said. be
