Will the Parent-Teacher asso ciations assist ua and arrange neighborhood dances? Is it feasible to establish mu nicipal dances? Can we eret groups of women to visit all existing dance halls and serve as chaperones to the girls? The committee to consider the dance hall question, which baa been work ing informally along- lines of investi gation during the past two months, was "organized yesterday at a meeting In room K, Library. Rev. Frederick K. Howard was elected chairman and Miss Klsie Gill secretary. After considerable discussion it was decided that the work should be carried on and Chap lain Howard will appoint committees to confer with the School Board, with the rarent-Teacher Association and with socjal workers and others inter ested. Miss Ida l.oewenbcr;r. of the Neigh borhood ilouse. offered the suggestion that if eaod women were really tn earnest and would serve as chaperones for the girls who attend the danceB. the problem In a large measure would be solved. A committee will be named to work along this line. , Women lavltrd to Introduce Girls. Chairman Howard said that it Is the rolicy of the general committee to work constructively and to avoid being busybodics. Mrs. J. A. Randall, whose husband conducts a public dance, urged the women who are interested to visit the dances and to become acquainted with ' the young siris. and, if they wished, to act as "introducers." "The paid in troducer is there Just to make the girls feel that the formalities are being ob served."' said Mrs. Randall, "and we Rre anxious to have everything right and are willing to co-operate." "I can say nothing against our public dances," said Mrs. Blumauer, who has investigated many of them, "but it is what happens after the dance, when the girls start out unprotected, that is the cause to worry. 1 think schools could be used to advantage so that neigh borhood dances could be held." - CHMnltj Dances Iralned. Commissioner Brewster reported that In l'eninrtula Park the community dances and entertainments had been asuccess, and that 300 persons had attended in one night, fie said that there should be other buildings of the same type, similarly conducted, but for this, he added, "there is no money." Rev. Father Matuszewski favored neighborhood festivities and the light kind of supervision. Miss Valentine Prichard. of the People's Institute, said that she had understood that in Cleve land the municipal dances were a suc cess, and in Chicago the community dances had been satisfactory, but that in Los Angeles some objections had been noted. The feasibility and the possibility of Inaugurating community or municipal dances were discussed from every angle. Among the speakers were W. 13. Frank lin, of Vancouver, ft. C.. who is travel ing through the Pacific Coast cities studying the problem: Mrs. W. J. Haw kins, ex-president of the Portland Parent - Teacher Association, who thought the so-called "interscholastic" dances worse than some public dances, and Mrs. K. Jehu, of the Louise Home, who said many of the girls' lives were spoiled by attending dances. Principals Fletcher, of Couch School, and Brown, of Irvlngton School, spoke briefly.
