After the dance Is over, sii must file the following certificate with ihe dean of women: "As chap erune, this Is to certify that, during the dances Jusl finished, 1 snw no shimmy - shaking, cheek to-cheek dancing or other object loualile feat ures." It looks bud fur Ihe shimmy at Northwestern. An ordinary ctiap erone is bad enough, but a chuperone chaperoned by the faculty Is an in surmountable difficulty. Tills, how ever, Is as it should be.
