COUNCIL STUDIES i CHICAGO TRAFFIC ANO MUSSES Members to Determine Advisability of Doubledeck Vehicles Here, Members of the city council left early today for Chicago, where they are studying traffic conditions in an effort to determine the expense and advisability of permitting double-deck busses to operate in the streets of Indianapolis. Question as to the delay of the board of safety in appointing a smoke inspector was raised at the council meeting Monday night, when a motion to carry the appropriation ordinance for SSOO for a smoke inspector’s salary until Jan. 1 was defeated. Following a discussion, in which it was charged politics was plainng a part in the appointment of the inspector, John E. King, president, appointed Walter W. Wise head of a committee to investigate the delay on the part of the board. When roll was called after third reading of the ordinance Councilman Heydon W. Buchanan said, “I am voting ’no' on the motion to pass the 'ordinance over the mayor’s veto because both he and the press have ridiculed the council in its action in the matter.” “Politics” Is Alleged r .-uncilman Walter W. Wise also explained ais vote against the motion, saying, “I believe politics is being played in the appointment of the Inspector. I understand the two men who stood highest in the examination have been eliminated from consideration and a third man who I am told didn't even take the oral examination is to be appointed. I don't believe we should appropriate money Until the Inspector has been appointed-” Councilman Lloyd D. Claycombe upheld the board of safety declaring that he did not believe either the board or the council had played politics in the matter at any time. Following a lengthy discussion by representatives of Indianapolis taxi companies and trustees of the Volney T. Mallot estate, concerning passage of an amendment to the city parking ordir.ance prohibiting t&xies parking in front of Union Station, the amendment was stricken from the files. Zone Ordinance Amended Ordinances passed by the council were: An amendment to the zoning law bringing churches, schools, public libraries, public museums, community center buildings and private clubs under the jurisdiction of the city planning commission; an ordinance bringing the district in the ■f Brookvilie Rd. and Grand Ave., be j Tween Grand Ave. and Butler St., into the business zone; an ordinance granting the Vonnegut Hardware Company permission to install a railroad switch across Maryland St., on Missouri St., and an ordinance providing , for the paving of Fifteenth St., be- ; tween Boulevard Park and Northwest- I era Ave Attempts to pass an ordinance over | tbe veto of the mayor providing for u: increase of parking rental in front of business establishments from $lO to SSO failed.

Concerning Anna Pavlowa

Anna Pavlowa still remains the world a greatest classical dancer. There is no argument on that score as far as lam concerned. Yesterday Pavlowa and her many assistants appeared in two dance programs at the Murat. My remarks will be con fined to the night performance only, as I was unable to attend the matinee. Pavlowa is a greater and bigger artist than she was years ago. Oh. you will say that years will tell. Yes, that is very true, but the years have been kind to this wonder woman of dance-dreams. An audience which nearly taxed the capacity of the Murat greeted her last night. Judging by the applause, she pleased every one present. I was most anxious to see "The Oriental Impressions,” and we owe a debt of gratitude to Ona B. Talbot, who insisted that Indianapolis should see the new dances. Pavlowa agreed and changed her tour program to please Mrs. Talbot. The first number of the Oriental group was a series of Japanese dances done by Miles. Stuart, Fliede, Coles, Glynde, Bartlett, Rogers, Nlch-

ols, Crofton and M. Algeranoff. A quaint and lovely picture. The second dance of this group was the gloriously haunting "Hindu Wedding.” During this number the work of the Nautch Girls brought the “wicked” and intoxicating movements of the Orient to our very doorsteps. The costuming and colors In this number made It a gorgeous masterpiece. In the final number of this group wo had Pavlowa and M. F. Uday Shankar in another weird Oriental dream poem. Again a perfect picture. ‘‘Autumn Leaves" as arranged by Pavlowa and danced to Chopin music, opened the program. Here we saw the divine Pavlowa on her toes. Exquisite, wonderful. Why say more? It will linger in my memory for years. The worth of Laurent Novikoff was seen in his solo number as well as the “Baechanale” which he danced with Fine for Neuralgia Musterole Insures quick relief from neuralgia.
