nounced.
The Kid" has been transforming
around the pumpkin show circuit,
making daily aScensions and has
probably been the cause of thou
sands of sunburned tonsils as the
awe-stricken populace have gazed
Cpen-mouthed into the sky at the
"dern dude trying to break his
neck"
Shafer. in addition to being rated
one of the most daring jumpers in
the game, is undoubtedly the heaviest
aerial performer before the public,
weighing over 1870 pounds, the ex-
treme poundage adding an extra
hazard to his aerial stunts and put
tig a severe strain on the tiny para
chutes used in breaking his tumble
to earth. o. F. Ruth, the balloon
king. in whose stable of ozone ath-

advising, the performer to go on a
diet for safety's sake, or at least
take up skeeball or archery. both Of
which sports are available at River
side.
Shafer, however. has steadily dis
regarded this advice and meanwhile
his waistline has steadily expanded
until he has discarded the tight vest
that was a part Of his formal attire
on balloon trips.
The coming week will be a busy
one at Riverside, as all the games
of the Union Printers baseball tour
nament will be played on the River
side diamonds, and the local COM
mittee has selected the park as the
scene of the big entertainment fea-
lures for the players and visitors.

Opens Art
School
The Formal Opening of New
Structure to Be Held
Tuesday.

IMPOSING features Of the celebra-
4 ton of the opening of the new
art school of the Art Association of
indianapolis, which has been set
for the week beginning Sept 2, will
be pageantry developments by art
students and presented on five diff
ferent occasions during the progress
of the weeks program, it was an
nounced today by Edna Mann Sho-
yer, principal of the school.
Formal opening of the new $780,
900 art school building on Tuesday
night at $50 o'clock, will be the
center of the weeks program. An
address by Frederick P. Keppel,
president of the Carnegie Corpora
ton, will be the central feature of
meetings Thursday night at the art
school.
Pageantry will begin Wednesday
evening at $3.50 at the Art school,
and the senior pageant also will be
given Thursday night. A junior pa
geant will be given Saturday after
noon, and again Saturday evening.
Both pageants are to be shown in
the new lecture room on the first
floor of the new Art school building,
and elaborate costuming and scenery
effects have been constructed as part
of the regular school work Of the
students in the Art school.
Oakley Richey, instructor in dec
orative arts. including stage design
in the Art school, is director of both
pageants. Thirty-f1ve people take
part in each of the pageants.
Miss Dorothy Eisenbach, instruc-
tor in costume design in the Art
school, has had charge of the cos
tuning for both pageants. The
actual work on both costumes and
scenery was done last spring as the
Art school was closed, by the art
students. The scenery was painted
and constructed by the students.
The costumes were made by Miss
Eisenbach's pupils, and the scenery
was constructed by Mr.. Richeys
students.
The title for the senior pageant
is "Cinder." 1t is a symbolism of
the remarkable gift to the art school
of the Indianapolis Art Associat ton,
and was written by a committee
from the art school, acting on the
idea presented last year by Edna

school. The committee, which
thereafter prepared the pageant, in
