AStor loatheS the modern method of
conducting balls when certain cliques

when dance programs are filled IN

unexpected nature can happen. She
has found that certain lovely maids
were biighted in the first moment of
their blooming by these hard and fast
rules. SO she invited some hundred
odd of maids and SWANS. and made
each fill out a little card giving their
name and that of their parents,
whether they danced or liked to
dance. whether they played cards or
be good pals, etc. These cards the
versatile member of Parliament from
Plymouth insisted should be pinned
to the front of each gown and from
the lapel of each coat. These cards
served an Introduction and both
sexes were privileged to read and to
choose partners and the result was
the lowering Of all barriers and a
free untrammeled acquaintance and
what is called lots of fun. Lady AS

been retarded from dancing through
lack of the proper Introduction, or
any knowledge of the girls with
whom they are thrown. How many

MURPHY KILLED AS
 HE HITS 80 MILES
(Continued from Preceding Page)

NSOHtIIluSu lIOll IIptChlhS I u6S( point. O1dfeld himself was not fatally injured.
 Weeks Second Fatality
 The accident yesterday amarked the second fatality on the state fair tracks within week. The track is the same used for Grand Circuit racing, and it was at almost exactly the same place last Monday after noon that Tommy Hinds, 65 year old Grand Circuit veteran, was Killed when his sulky colIided with bone driven by Tommy Murphy. Five of the eleven entrants in yesterdays race finished and one of them. Earl Cooper, was Tagged off the track as he came down the final stretch. The others were Phil shafer, Bennett Hill, Harry Hartz and Peter De Paolo.
 Harry Hartz was forced from the race by engine trouble in the 25th lap.
 Tommy Milton was forced from the race in the ssrd lap when his car developed trouble with the steer ing gear, and lightly hit the fence near the grandstand. He was un- injured. Shafer Led From Start
 Throughout the race yesterday shafer held the lead. and by the tooth lap was more than two laps ahead of his nearest rival. Murphy hung on tenaciously up to the time he was hurt, and most of the dis tance alternated for second place with Tommy Milton and E. Anster- berg.
 One of Greatest Pilots Jimmy Murphy, regarded by thou sands of fans as one of the greatest pilots who ever sat in a racing car, began his speedway career as mechanician for the late Eddie ODonnell. After riding with Eddie Rickenbacher, who later became a famous ace in the world war: the late Hughie Hughes, Tommy Mil- ton and other noted drivers in a similar capacity, Murphy began rac- ing for himself and won his first big race at Uniontown, Pa., in 1919. Later in the same year. another vic- tory on the same track and one at Elgin, H., firmly established him as a farorite with the public.
 MQrphy began fhe 1aIn uaa.a, by winning the inaugural 250-mile sweepstakes at the Los Angeles Speedway, driving the two hundred flaps on the mile and a quarter track without a stop. In the same year he placed fourth inNthe Indiana polls sweepstakes on Decoration Day: third at Uniontown, three weeks later; fourth In the Elgin. H., road race, August 2S; second in ths uniontown event, Labor Day, and fourth at Los Angeles. Thanksgiv- ing Day.
 His Greatest victnry
 Probably Murphy's greatest Vic- tory and certainly that which brought him the most fame was achieved July 25, 1921, at Le Mans, a suburb of Paris, when he cap- tured first prize in the Grand Prix Of the American Automobile club of France.

Speeches Of Candidates and Final
Returns on Election Day Will
Be on the Air.
BY CARL H. BUTMAN.

Well--''it's all over, but the shout
that before the polls close November
4. and much of the shouting will be
over the radio broadcasting circuits
Of the country.
With the broadcasting Of the Do
1itical conventions this year, a new
slogan was born: 1t no longer holds
That he who runs may read" but
rather. "He,who listens in may hear"
Biase politicians. and oven those who
still believe something new Is possk
b!e. were astoundad At the interest
displayed in broadcasts which carried
TO every city and farm the very words
or the nominators and seconders, the
votes of delegations. and the sten-
torian tones Of the chairmen. The
radio listeners were on the inside for
the first time. Through them the pub
lie at large had it's ear to the air.
newspapers were aided in their
stories and editorials through radio.
Some carried a daily ringside, Or
round by round resume Of the ses-
sions. Many people read these. run
ning accounts which were not dis
similar to the inning g-by-inning base
ball stories found on the sport pages.
At the final session OF the Demo-
cratic convention in New York last
week resolution was passed thanE-
Ing the twenty broadcastinE stations
and the Bell system, together win
their associates. for service rendered
the convention and the public
throughout fifteen days and nights
OF broadcastinG.. The convention SO
phrased the resolution as to include
the thanks Of the fans themselves
knowing tho Interest and apprecfa-
tion in that quarter :
Before the campaigns are fully
launched we shall sec that campaign
managers have laid plans for broad
casting the speeches OF their candt-
dates and auxiliary speakers w1er-
ever arrangements can be made with
lbroadcastfng stations. ana again we
wffl~tune In to hear what we shall
hear. -. -.
Every fan in the country, will also
prepare to listen in when the polls
close November 4. The returns will
be gathered directly from precincts
in all states. 1t is foreseen that
| broadcasters will cooperate with
| local papers or precinct headquarters
and election boards so as to carry
| minute-b minute bulletins on re-
| turns. Those who do not possess sets
OF their own will join the crowds in
front OF newspaper offices, where loud
speakers will be active.
