The club owners OF the two ma
jor leagues are to gather again in
Chicago next Wednesday for their
annual meeting. The National
League SAYS the meeting will be a
dinger and the American League
predicts that it wilf-be Just a little
routine.
Most Of the business that was
transacted during the series OF meet
ings that closed late Thursday was
not made public There were a few
resolutions handed out in which Ban
johnson was panned indidectly for
saying things about Commissioner
Lands, John MCGraw and the Ma
tiOual League.
The Slap Indirect
And there was the indirect slap
by the American League at its presi-
dent In a resolution indorsing the
administration Of lands and ap-
pointing a committee to tell him 50.
The chief blow thrOwer OF the
National League at the meeting next
week, It is said. Will be John Nc
Graw. Johnson said that McGraw
and the Giants had been mixed up
in nearly every scandal that has
occurred in baseball and McGraw IS
planning to return the compliment.
American Promises
The American League IS trying TO
head of the attack of the National
League with the promise that John
son will get the gate II he ever goes
on a rampage again. The National
League has been told that Johnson
Is the president OF the league in
name only, and Johnson helped
along by saying after the informal
meeting Thursday "ss far as I'm
concerned. there will be no more
trouble with the American League"

Lavish Lighting
| Added Attraction
At Island Park

The clear, sheer joy of dancing is
a lot. these days. But couple that
with a feast for the eyes upon the
part of the indulger in the art of
terpsichore and what is left to be
desired? This is intended to be a
rhapsody. but having run out>of the
words that grow on the dusty high
shelf and cost a lot of money the
author will not take the gentle read
err with them on a trip to Island
Park, most any Monday, Wednes-
day, Friday or Saturday and de-
scribe, in simple words, thereof, the
beauties of the Island Park Dance
Pavilion, which is being conducted
under the direction of art" Spauld-
ing.
A last years visitor wouldn't
know the dance pavilion now. It's
different place. In the first place,
the entire interior of the pavilion
has been completely sheathed, hid
den, disguised, decorated, enhanced.
whichever you prefer, with yards
and yards of bunting in all sorts of
luscious shades. The ceiling and the
side walls, down to the screening,
have been hidden in these good look
ing adornments.
A decided Improvement is the
placing of the refreshment booth
under the same roof, with an inside
and an outside counter. Patrons
need not go outside of the hall to
visit this place. Adjacent to the new
refreshment place and under the
same roof is widened section,
which takes the place of a rest room.
But the stage is the center of in
terest. There sheathing of an ivory
tint lowers the dimensions Of the
ceiling and gives the impression of
the orchestra being seated in an al
cove. The main lighting of this sec
ton comes from the rear where
white and colored lights are con-
trolled by switches. The moonlight
waltzes are further enhanced by the
alternating subdued lights. The ef-
feet is beautiful. And the folks who
just come to sit in their automobiles
and watch the fun, perhaps enjoy
this part of the program as well as
any. The tout ensemble is unusually
lovely.
Then there are lightning effects,
keeping atune with the music, be-
ing especially associated with one
number of the Meyers orchestra
which is creepy and weird in its in
PRODUCTION. Yes, the lights have a
lot to do with the effectiveness.
Mr.. Spaulding promises a number
of novelties in this seasons fun and
he keeps his word in presenting the
goods. On Monday night George
Manson's orchestra was at the helm
as starter. While they have a
spAendid aggregation, nevertheless.
the average dancer favors Bert
Mayors and his orchestra from Bos-
ton. Anyway, they all go to make
the Island Park dance pavilion the
success that it is. There isn't q
doubt. but that Island Park pavilion
is now the States leading outdoor
attraction. Lake end lights. cooling
nights, music fine right in line--put
Island Park d. P. at the head of
the list.
