YOUTH To FACE
IS CHARGES

The name "Chauncey Mcdaniel
Ashton" is written 16 consecutive
times on the bIotter at police head
quarters, and the chances are It
will be written as many more times,
detectives said today, as various
robberies were laid at Ashton's
door.
Ashton, a 22-year old colored man,
has been sought for some time as
the purse snatcher who has been
operating in downtown office build
ings. He was arrested in Police
Court when recognized by Detective
Sergeant Arthur T. FINELY. He
has confessed, detectives said, to
the charges already placed against
him.
More than 30 victims of the office
purse snatcher have been asked to
go to headquarters and look at the
suspect. 1t is probable, the detec-
tives say, that he will be identified
in many of the robberies. Detective
sergeants Larry O'Dea and Oscar
w. Mansfield have six and three ad-
ditional charges, respectively, to
place against Ashton. Ashton at the
time of his arrest, was at liberty on
probation after conviction on an
automobile theft charge.

BURNS TO MANAGE SAN ANTONIO NINE
 IN TEXAS LEAGUE

SAN ANTONIO, Dec. 9.-George Joseph Burns who once chased flies and did a pretty good job of batting for the New York Giants, has been named manager of the San Antonio team of the Texas League.
 He succeeds Pat Newman. Last season Burns managed the Spring field team of the Eastern League and prior to that he had manager ial experience at Williamsport in the N. Y. P. League and Hanover in the Blue Ridge League.
 Burns was recommended as San Antorio manager by John McGraw of the Giants, and there is reason to believe that. there will be a strong alliance between San An tonic and the Giants.
 The Giants will train in San Antonio next spring and McGraW is expected to help his former play CT with some of the talent he will be unable to use.

Woman S Day
BY ALLENE SUMMER

Shall you dance, or shall you
diet, to keep your figure-suppoS-
ing, of course, that you want to
keep it?
Dancers and dieters are seldom
the same person, according to Leo
Reisman. who conducts the orches-
ira at the Casino in New York
where the smart people are dancing
these days.
IF a doctor told you to walk
ten miles a day to keep down your
flesh, you wouldn't obey his in
struction," he said. But you
can dance ten miles in an evening
and many young couples do-and
consider that you are having enter
tainment, and exercise as well"
One evening, not entirely en-
crossed by his score, it occurred
to Reisman to wonder just how
much mileage the average couple
got out of themselves in an eve
ming of dancing, so he induced a
couple to take the dancing test.
They put speedometers on their
feet and at the end of the evening
it was found that in the hours
from to II, they had covered just
a fraction over ten miles.

are almost bound to be slim and
flapper-figured.
In the days when the more ample
woman reigned, with her full volurn-
inous clothes as well as her full
hips, she did not dance as she does
today. Dance forms were slow and
dangerous with rest periods between
and people sat out" dances occa-
Sionally.
Today dancing is swift, and it
takes muscular strength, and poise.
Girls dance in the afternoon, dance
at teas, dance through their dinners
in the evening, and dance after the
theater-sometimes until dawn.
Many social dancers today dance
as well as professionals, and can do
as many tricky, fancy steps. With
the present system of cutting in, "a
popular girl may dance for hours
without stoppipR
