Again De Molays Skate! (They Frequently Do It) The Indianapolis chapter of the Order of DeMolay gives skating parties frequently through their drill corps. The stories of the parties have been carried each time for more than a year on the Fraternal Page of The Indianapolis Times. Each story has, of course, been the same with the facts of the time and place carried with the rest of the tale. But the headlines through a strange coincidence always have been “DeMolays to Skate.” The simple headline told the story in the conventional newspaper manner. It was sufficient. But the newspaper scrap book of the chapter drill corps carries a long list of stories headed “DeMolays to Skate,” and the chairman of the publicity committee registered a “complaint” against the headline writers of The Times. “Give us a different headline the next time,” he asked. “Even •DeMolays to Skate Again.’ Or anything. “We are staging a party at 8 p. m. Friday at the Riverside rink, and everybody is welcome.” The fraternal editor promised a different headline on the next story.
