Followers of the Indiana Artists’ Club are choosing their favorite characters in paintings whose costumes they are attemptCivic theater friends are recalling the last circus

What should we expert at a circus dance? Lots of clowns cavorting about with painted faces, dancers with flying tarlctan skirts, barkers in boots and checkered vests, animal trainers with snapping whips, trapeze artists in pink tights. This is going to be fun—dressing up in some absurd costume and painting our faces to achieve that "circus look.’’ Hour Show Promised Mrs. Fauvre promises a floor show with circus ideas. Damien J. Lyman with Miss Josephine Binnmger and George Calvert are assuming responsibilities for the artists ball at the Severin room on April 21 We don’t try to make any money," Mrs. Lyman explains. “Our tickets are reasonable, and we use every bit of money to make the decorations something to remember.’’ Elmer Taflinger, Bird Baldwin and Ralph Craig are putting their heads together to work out the decorative scheme. The decorations promise to be amusing. Every artist with an eccentricity should come to the ball prepared to see himself "put on the spot,” because that's exactly what the decoration artists are planning to submit them to. Prepare for Art Event W. Heitkam is gathering prizes. C. Warner Williams who left Indianapolis to continue his sculpture studies in Chicago sent word that he is donating one of his pieces as a prize. Annually the ball arouses the imagination of John Herron Art school students, who spend weeks in creating their costumes. The last two balls have had specific themes. One was Chinese and another mythological The custom bids to become a tradition. Patrons of art in Indianapolis and the state as well as artists will be guests at the ball.
