1T was two years ago that Charles
Il A. Lindbergh made the front
page after flying from New York to
Paris Scant notice was taken of
his departure. When he returned,
the country went into Mysteries. New

telephone books, newspapers and
Bibles to show how it felt.
Now he is Colonel Lindbergh and
about to marry Miss Morrow.

Times and Indiana Roof
Ballroom Join to Give
Free Lessons.

'The Camel Glide" latest dance
which is sweeping the country like
Wildf1re, will be taught to Indian
apolis dancers through arrangement
of The Times with officials of the
Indiana Roof ballroom.
This dance, which has won instant
favor here, was created by a number
of dancers at the Indiana Roof
among them Frank Levay, Sylvia
Darcy, Marie Darcy, Enrol MuSh-
rush, Ernest GILBERT and Jacqueline
..Beal.
Arrangements have been made to
give free instruction for one week
every night except Sunday, between
7:30 and $50 beginning tonight
There will be no door charges for
admission to the ballroom for this
hour and sufficient instructors will
be on hand for the crowd.

as a ticket, but unless it is presented
at the door the regular charge will
be made.

enthusiasm of dancers here and is
likely to sweep the nation" said
Tom Devine, manager of the Roof
"Since its creation I have contracted
with operators of the largest ball
rooms in the country and all, with
out exception, declare that there is
a crying need for NV dance such
as the Camel Glide"
Devine has given as his reason
for this demand, the new talking
moving pictures. Almost all of these
he said have some slow, sweet tune
as the theme song and in many
cases it becomes one Of the popular
hits.
When this occurs, he explained, it
likewise becomes popular on the
dance floor, with the patrons asking
for it. Naturally, the fast, perky
dances which have beeen in vogue
just don't fit. Hence their demand
for something new.
