DETROIT, Aug. 9.-An art treas
ure was removed from a bicycle
handlebar and returned today to a
museum which had reported It's dis

inc, drilled a couple of holes in its

Business Councils
August Picnic to Be

programs show up later for the Sat-
urday night dances and then come
again the next Tuesday.
Swimming, fencing classes, week
end stays at the Y. VIC. A. camp
in Maryland and special week end
trips to New York and Atlantic City
are a few of the summer activities
which have a special appeal for
newcomers.
In addition to the Saturday night
dances there are also dances on Fri
day evening. held in cooperation
with the Young Mems Christian As
ISOLATION.
Contributing to the success OF
both these entertainments is the
fact they are held on the Y. w. g:
A. roof-a delightfully."- cool spot on
summer evening and one that is
made more attractive by colored
lights.
Panhellenic Association
Provides Chaperones.
For the Saturday night affairs
members of the washington Panhel-
lenic Association serve as chap
erones and girls from Strong Res
idence as hostesses. A good dance
band provides the music, and punch
and cookies are served throughout
the evening. The admission fee is
small enough to fit the purse OF
almost any selectee.
Listed activities at the Y. w. c. A.,
however, fail to take in account
the tete-a-tete conferences with
members of the staff during which
many a personal problem is aired
and solved. Nor do they indicate
the size of correspondence, which,
like every other job at the "Y," is
growing by leaps and bounds.

more men attend than glrls-tne

This may be due in part to the
fact that Mary Brown. the bank

''repeaters" each week.
Although the Saturday night
dances are an innovation on the "Y'
program this year, the associations
activities for the most part have
merely been expanded, and occa-
sionally altered, to meet increasing
needs.
The room registry, for instance
which has been in operation for
many years, has required the addi-
ton of about 80 volunteer workers
in the past six months to inspect
the rooms and talk to the appli-
cants.
The Registry Committee is always
able to find approved accommoda-
tions, although not always in the
requested locations, Miss Haney de-
clared.
The Y. w. c. AS own Strong
Residence is full to overflowing, SO
that few can hope for accommoda-

by this Fayetteville (Ga) local draft
board that he had been placed in

Chairman c. S. Graves informed
Travis he probably would be called

Travis, a batting star with the Ma

appeal the classification and is
ready to do his duty. He took the
physical examination two Weeks ago
when passing through Fayetteville,

The players father, 80. and his
mother, 10, both are dependent upon
Travis farm at Riverdale, Ga, for
a livelihood, but Travis says his
brother Raymond, IS, operates the

The notification was a severe blow
to the Washington baseball club.

board.
