This is a prophecy of Arthur Murray, director of the southern division, National In- stitute of Social Dancing, who an- nounced that one of the big things that the institute proposes to do at the convention of the organization, which will meet at Asheville, N. C., the week of July 16, would be to check the Egyptian tendency in ball- room dancing and to accept only those features of Tutankhamen's terpischorean art that will be suit- able to modern social dancing. Another alm of the convention will be toward rullng out all unseemly dances. More sanely standardized dances with less steps, will be tiie watchword of the convention, which urges that the public co-operate by sending suggestions. The week of the convention will be designated as “Dance week.” BATHING PARTY HITS WATCHMAN IN HEAD Stones Used by Colored Men in Early Morning Attack.
