M JANUARY 5, 1922 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGS T PAGE T _ C E Jazz Is Slowly, Surely Passing Into discard Says Noted Dance Reformer I --- - - Chicago, Jan. 4.--"The Jazz" is slowly but surely going into the dis- card, according to a statement issued here by Fenton Bott, of Dayton, 0., director ofdance reform of the Am- erican National association, masters of dancing, "The 'Fox Trot' is the dance that re- ceives the most abuse by the dancer," said the statement, "and it is the 'Fox. Trot' music as written and played in 'Jazz' fashion that causes the dancer to abuse this popular dance. There is nothing wrong with the 'Fox Trot' orl the steps in the 'Fox Trot,' but is is aj conceded fact among all' teachers of dancing that the Oriental suggestive-i ness and broken time in the Fox Trot! Jazz music, together with the lack of! sufficient supervision, is responsibleE for the downward trend of the dance.

Leo sharfman of the economics depart- ment. It would not be the immediate outcome of the issuance of $40,000,000 of paper money which would be se- cured only by the Muscle Shoals! plant, but that the precedent that T O would set in the financing of public' improvements would be dangerous to l the financial status of the United States. To issue this money, backed by no gold reserves, would be little morel than printing paper money with noth- ing behind it at all. People would not, in the opinion of Prof. Sharfman, be' willing to accept the proposed money as secured by the Muscle Shoals prop- etry. They would simply look at the! money as being backed by the good faith of the United States. The securi- ty of the property is not practical as Muscle Shoals cannot be liquidated with ease. To indulge in this practice for the financing of public improvements, would be following in the dangerous footpath of Russia, and other Euro- pean countries. This condition has been the result of a highly attenuatedl currency, without proper additions to! the gold reserves of these countries. ands of college deans, police women everywhere, and finally the public dance hall proprietors are listed in the work with us. We feel and hope that the crest of the wave of this dis- gusting wriggling 'Jazz' has been reached and reports to us from every part of the country show 'clean danc- ing' crusades being started every- where. "All exaggerated movements, es- pecially of the upper parts of the body, are in bad-taste in social dancing, and are never found with true refinement and culture." Nine don'ts are given in the state- ment. They are: "Don't permit vulgar jazz music to be played. "Don't permit young men to hold their partners tightly. "Don't permit partners to dance with cheeks close or touching. A Few More Dont's "Don't permit 'neck holds,' "So-called 'shimmy' or 'toddle' danc- ing should not be tolerated. "Don't permit dancers to take either exceptionally long or short steps. "Don't dance from the waist up; dance from the waist down. "Don't permit suggestive movements. "Don't permit dancers to copy the extremes that are now used on the modern stage."
