commended by the state game and
fish department, have been plant
ed in practically every lake and
slough within a radius of 10 miles

Do Our Dances
Mean War?
By The APP Feature Service

By The AP Feature Service
NOV we know: It's the pre-
l. Y war jitters that make the
jitterbugs that way. And if
they don't cut out the rug
cutting. it means war, just as it
did IS years ago.
A couple of fellows told us so.
One is Arthur Murray, headliner
in ballroom dance instruction.
Listen to VIII at Murray says
about it: 1.-THE present outburst of
dance crazes is exactly parallel to
rash of jitterbugging that oc-
Cured in America in 1918 and
1914. That was the period when
the Castles won prominence and
America was doing the Turkey
Trot. During my entire career.
I've never witnessed such tre-
mendous desire on the part of the
American people to get rid of
nervous tension and frayed nerves
by capering on the dance floor as
I'm witnessing today"
Then there's Frank Veloz, of
the top-ranking hardwood team,
Veloz and Yolanda. Frank once
wrote a whole essay to demon
strate that popular dancing is
simply the expression of a peo-
pies national temperament.
And SO, My Pet, you see where
dances like these are leading US.
