CAROL IS OPPOSED
 TO RECONCILIATION
Rumanian Statesman Says King
 Feels Helen Deserted Him

Vienna. Aug, 21 P-A Rumanian statesman with the closest connec tons with the court at Bucharest but who, for political reasons, could not be quoted, today declared that the reason for postponenent Of the coronation of King Carol was the obstinate attitude of the king against reconciliation with Queen Helen.
 Carol, the statesman said, based his attitude against reconciliation upon The following argument:
 When I left Rumania and aban- doned all of my rights it was the duty of my wife to follow me. The whole world, including my parents, were perhaps justified in opposing me but my wife was not. Despite all, she left me and went over to my enemies camp and allowed her self to be used by them against me and she herself demanded divorce notwithstanding my lawyers pro- test.
 My sentimental wanderings had nothing to do with my departure from Rumania, which was of a purely political character. I opposed the dictatorship of NJ. Bratianu, which I regarded as injurious to both the nation and the dynasty.
 The Bratianus have avenged themselves severely on me and my own wife has played some part in this unworthy game.
 T can forgive all of my former opponents but can never become reconciled with my wife"

GOLF CHARGE HIGH,
 PLAYERS TELL BERG
50 Cents for IS Holes Enough,
 Former Commissioner Says

Dissatisfaction with certain fea- lures of the price to be charged by the park department at the new municipal golf course is reported by former Park Commissioner Arthur E. Berg, who said today many of the individuals from whom he received subscriptions during the drive for funds are complaining.
 The complaints, Mir. Berg said, are based on the charge to be made for playing the second nine holes. The park department has establish ed a definite ruling that 35 cents shall be charged for each nine holes. MT Berg says most of those who have spoken to him agree that this charge is reasonable for the first nine holes, but he says the fee should be so based that not more than 50 cents would be charged for IS holes.
 Although he did not mention names, other than to say the com- plaints echo his own personal sen- timents, MT. Berg said he has hearl some harsh criticism from individ- uals who feel that the park board intends to make a profit from the course.
 The city has no money invested in the course, except the s3,5OO re- gently appropriated for additional equipment" the former commis- sioner stated. The ground was do- mated and the course was built by public subscription. The park board should arrange to get a return suf- 1cient to take care of the upkesp, but that is all
 "On a municipal golf course, where the players are bound by all the usual restrictions of a municipal course, such as pairing up with others who may wish to play an1 other restrictions not found on q private course. 70 cents is too much for the average person to pay for IS holes
 Many ofshe persons from whom l received subscriptions gave amounts of from s2 up and these people tell me they think 35 cents for the first nine holes and 15 cents for the second nine holes is enough Personally l am very much opposed to the charge being more than 50 cents"
 Mr. Berg uSs one of the instiga- tors of the move to procure the course and has been one of the most active workers in the project.

BALL ROOM DANCE
 BECOMING SEDATE
Mrs. BaSSette Writes From Con-
 yention Of Changes in Style

Ballroom dancing is undergoing q change from the jazz of the past de- cade and this year, more than here tofore, marks a departure from the athletic figures of the dance floor toward the more sedate dances of the nineties according 10 Mrs. B. Bdssctte who is attending the con- Nentlon of dancing masters in pro- gress at the Hotel Commodore in New York city with her daughter, Miss Ruth. q member of the asso- ciation sponsoring it.
 Mrs. Bassette has written the fol- lowing article for the Herald:
 Ballroom dancing is one social pastime that can certainly stand a little refining. Seven hundred dance masters from every state in the L. s. and Canada are registered at the 37th annual convention now in ses- sion at the Hotel Commodore. Classes in every, known form of dancing are going on morning, noon and night in the east and west ball looms. The masters of America are cheerful over the fact that the iazz type dancing is gradually becoming less popular and being succeeded by the more polite and graceful form of ball terpsichore.
 Daddy kehl,' as they call him. IS one of the outstanding personali- ties of the convention and principal of the dancing masters of America Normal school and has just celebrat- ed the 50th anniversary of his enter ing into the profession of dancing teacher. He has taught 43 years in Madison, Wis, two years in Chicago and is now going strong in Miami. He claims old dances are more beau- tiful and enjoyable. He says young America avoids hard work even in dance. The popular step is the easiest, He speaks wisHully of the oays when he taught the polka, the waltz and the schottische and says we are going back to the waltz but doubts whether the old square dance will ever come back in spit of the efforts of Henry Ford and a few others to-popularize it.
 Thomas NJ, Sheehy. president of the association, has with him his pretty 16-year-old daughter, kath- crime. Daily they give exhibitions. The president says: The tendency in modern dancing will be more and more away from the jazz and increasingly toward the classic and conservative style
 Long skirts are bringing back the waltz, eliminating freak dances. Among the new dances may be mentioned slow rhythm fox trot. Spanish schottish. Ritz waltz. Latin tro, Slo-Tempo trot, glorifed polka, fascination waltz and even the Quaker V<ttz as we'll as valse TO- mantique. The most popular dance at present is the University Drag"
 Tonight there will be an enter teinment featuring Harriet Hector and ball afterwards. Friday night the banquet and awarding of di- plomas to the teachers successfully passing the course of study will be held.
