Henry's Four Million around @ %4-foot ring in tho grand ballroom of the Hotel Commodore. The sca- son's prettiest debutantes, and their sisters of last year’s coming out, matrons of the Avenue and the dic- tators. of Who's Who In the Swim and What's What in the Fashion, made guests of former gangnters, sunten, porch climbers, second story and stick-up men, The hand of fellowship was ex- tended to ex-convicts and members of the “gangs” caught up by the Marshall-Stilison “Movement. Al- pheus Geer, leader of the movement, told the audience how gangsters were developed, from the gangs at school to those of the street, the poolroom, the dance hall, the dives and “dope, and the easy fall into crime. His idea was tho development of gangs into’ clubs—athletic clubs, where red-blooded boys may be grad- uated Into red-blooded men, and where they can fight with gloves o: fists, maybe, and forget the resort to the knife and the gun. The “boya” themselves are the officers and di- rectors of the clubs, and his appeal to Society was for the means to help carry on the clubs and to spread the movement throughout the city. The programme for the entertainment of the Fifth Avenve and other fashion- ables was a boxing card, in which} pillow matches were mixed with| dandy bouts. PROMINENT SOCIETY THRONG BOXES, Mrs. Vincent Astor headed the list of patrons of the evening and the balroom and boxes were crowdea with notables of the upper-tendom. Among them were Mrs. Willard Straight, Miss Anne Morgan, Mrs. Henry Clarke Coe, Mra. Charles Dana Gibeon, Mrs. Winthrop CoWdin and about fifty pretty girls in the daint- jest of frocks, members of the Junior League, who acted as ushers and through whose hands contributions | flowed in. It was a scene which would have | delighted the heart of O. Henry. A regulation ring was pitched in the middle of the Commodore's grand | ballroom, with five great electric re- | flectors above it. Steps led up to) the elevated ring and there were seconds, with buckets, bottle holders and towel men, and gong which sounded like a fire warning. Every seat In the house commanded a view of the arena. Be it said that the biffe and drives, the ducks and swings of the gladiators didn't startle the ladies of the Four Hundred the least little bit. It was fun for them. They knew when a real punch was landed. Mr. Geer an- nounced that one of the debs told him that she was speaking for the rest when she said that if the boys were hitting “easy” because of their presence to “forget it.” Tt was a gathering of psychologists, sociologists and soakologists. It was a study to observe the women in thelr wonderful gowns, at different stages of the game.
