New Folk Dance
Club Is Planned
By Dance Leader

Gordon Ekvall Tracie, leader
and founder of the Scandia Folk
Dance club at the University of
Washington, plans to launch an
organization to be known as the
Nordic Folk Dance Club.
Instruction in Scandinavian folk
dances will be given weekly during
evening classes. Anyone interest
ed in joining the club is urged to
contact Tracie by calling Vermont
O988.
Tracie. who owns perhaps the
best record collection of Nordic
folk music in the Northwest, is
quite an authority on folk dancing,
having studied the Scandinavian
dances during a one-year visit in
Sweden.
The Scandal folk dance club,
comprised of university students,
is now practising for an extensive
fall and winter schedule. A Sc
lect group of the club will per-
form September 23 in the Civic
Auditorium, Seattle. It's members
appeared at the Evergreen State
Fair in Snohomish County Satur-
day, September 10. The group
included the following couples:
Gordon Tracie and Anne Bentley;
Phil Swenson, Betty Steinhart;
Dick Sacksteder, Jane Isakson;
Ralph Brown, Cords Dahl; Mike
Vickery, Barbara Steele; Roy Ny
lander, Margaret Johnston.
Judging from the names, not all
of the dancers are Scandinavians.
Actually, many students without a
Scandinavian background have
joined the club, which now has a
membership of about so.

Continental Connoisseur:

A few years ago. Jan Michel
van Gindertael, a Belgian from
Brussels, thought Scandinavians
were a dreadfully stiff, proud and
formal people, strutting around in
snow shoes on snow solidly packed
up to house tops.
Only a few days ago, Jan at
tended a French summer camp at
Shawnigan Lake, Vancouver, b.
c., roasting under a hot sun. And
there, believe it or not, he had
a class of eight persons, some Of
them from Minnesota, whom he
was teaching-Swedish.
How come? Wen. It's really
quite a dong and interesting story.
When he told the story in fluent
Swedish il was even more inter-
esting.
Jan served with the under
ground forces in Belgium and
France during the war Eventu-
ally he became stationed with the
Belgian airforce, then under Bri-
fish command, in Copenhagen. The
war was ended, Jan went back
home. But not for long. He soon
returned to Denmark, liked il. got

Coal

Mining by Electricity
The University of Missouri School
of Mines and Metallurgy is demon
strating that coal can be turned to
gas by sending an electric current
through it.
The process is known technically as
Observation-Disclosures" With it, re-
searchers say, it will be possible to
heat homes and cook meals by utiliz-
ing coal that is still underground.
The School of Mines is operating
the experiment at the Tiger Mine,
near Hume, Mo-, owned by the Sin
clair Coal Co.
DR.. J. D. Forester of the college
faculty says the methods employed,
when worked on a commercial scale
"will contribute to cheaper commod-
tiles for the public benefit, and also
make some large coal and oil deposits,
heretofore unrecovecable, available
for use"
The gas produced in the process
can be used as raw material for syn
thetic production of gasoline or can
be converted into heating fuel

First in the U. S.

Three cities-Chicago, Detroit and
Atlantic City-plan to hold interna-
tional trade fairs in 195O-the first
ever held in the United States.
International trade fairs are quite
unlike the world fairs" held in
America in the past. They are not
designed to appeal to the general pub
lie although the public may be ad-
mitted on specific days when crowds
will not interfere with business.
International trade fairs aim at in
creasing world trade by bringing to-
gether businessmen, buyers and SELL
ers from all over the world. The SELL
ers are equipped with samples and
are ready to take orders.

lean cities-all within a week.-Mrs.

Red Tactics
In Germany

PROCLAMATION Of the new
j German state with a capital
in Berlin has provided the Krem-
lin with a new soviet satellite re-
public. It is another step in the
Red drive for unified Germany
which can be brought under control
Of Moscow.
This is how the east German state,
claiming sovereignty over all Ger
many, was established.
A year ago, a Peoples Congress was
handpicked by Communists from
trade unions, youth and farm organ
izations. These 1000 delegates were
confirmed in a plepiscite held last
May in typical Soviet style. There was
only one list Of candidates but more
than 4,000, 900 Germans in the eastern
occupation zone dared vote against it.
Well Planned Program
A constitution, blueprinted in ad-
vance by the Communists, was adopt
ed by the Peoples Congress. An exc
ecutive committee Of 400. set up by
the Congress, transformed itself into
a parliament to form the government
Of the new German Democratic Re-
public.
One clause in the constitution called
for free popular elections and date
in October had even been set for the
voting, but this has been postponed
The first elections now are tentative

MiIitunt EpiseopoIions

triennial convention at San Francisco
last week with a Bishops pastoral
letter calling for a militant church.
The pastoral letter, representing
the thinking of all the bishops, urged
an aggressive campaign during the
next three years against "a world
wide attack on freedom"
It cited religious illiteracy as a
basic weakness Of the Church and
warned:
Like a pendulum between two ex-
tremes, we have moved from an ex-
aggerated individualism to demonic
collectivism, from an individuslistic
anarchy to a collectivist tyranny.
