Reconstruction of the dance-regulating
ordinance was undertaken last
evening at a caucus held by the coun
cil and. when they had concluded. It
is said that the revised instrument
bore little resemblance to the orig
inal The clause prohibiting ragging
and other forms of Immoral or sug
gestive dancing was left and this will
be the principal feature of the ordi
nance when it p.tases.
Manv of the more drastic regula
tions are said to have been eliminat
ed. The age limit for unattended
young people was lowered from It
to It it is said, and the clause re
quiring de.nces to close at midnight
was si: i ken save where It applied to
Saturday night dances. The provis
ion for a permit to operate dance
halls is said to have been stricken

that ordinances already ln force give
ample authority for the enforcing oi
sanitary and safety requirements. No
dance inspector is provided for in
the revised ordinance, according to
report, and payment ror re-admission
to a dance hall is not required. Sev
eral other of the original provisions
were either stricken out or modified.
The prohibition ordinance was al
so discussed but It la said that the
