You never can tell. But the fact remains that on our desk is a newspaper in which, under_ the headline, “Notre Dame Grid Players To Be Taught Dancing,” this item appears: Included on the Notre Dame coach- ing staff this year will be a South Bend dancing instructor. The backfield will devote a short period each day to wsthetic dancing, declared Coach Rockne, to develop a sense of rhythm ess: in the timing of shift plays being de- vised. aoe io o A long, loud one for Kootz, with three Pavlowas on the end. This is not new at the South Bend insti- tution, Crowley and Leyden, last year's regulars, having been coached in dancing. If the fad spreads there ought to be some lively competition for dancing in- structors. “Gloom at New Haven Lifts as Management Lands Isadora Duncan is a head that one has no difficulty in visualizing; not to mention the attend- ant story jc y proclaiming, “There was much r ing on the campus to-day when Manager Whatzisname of the foot- ball team announced the successful termi- nation of negotiations to secure the great- est of all esthetic dancers. Miss Duncan will arrive to-morrow to take charge of the squad. A piano has been placed on the field and Percy Grainger will play bits from Chopin while the men follow the movements of the adorable Isadora,” ete. Harvard will counter with a story to the effect that negotiations are under way to secure the services of Ruth St. Denis; and doubtless the King Tut shift and the Pharoah formation will, under the guid- ance of this popular exponent of Egyptian dances, become part of the equipment of future Cambridge elevens. We have always had our doubts about interpretive dancing. Like Duley we know what we like, and, where dancing and everything else is concerned, it is usually something we can understand, like the low-brow stepping of Doyle and The trouble sthetic dancing is that it is “inter- ; and we can’t afford an inter- preter. Consequently, we sit through the dances without understanding them. This is annoying. We always wanted to speak our mind about it; and, when we wrote the Camp Merritt show, we in- cluded an esthetic dancing act that 30 pretiv wasn’t so msthetic. The “interpretive” art- ists were seven lumbering soldiers and we're not at all sure that. their perfor could be hai istic performar tes “interpreted” what we fell about wsthetie dancing and we were happy. We had the en- couragement of that genial roughneck George M. Colin, who staged the show, and we rejoiced in the knowledge that we had probably killed off in. terpretive dancing in America Certainly no one would dare to stage a performance now that we had said our say about this bewildering art. urING the five years that have elapsed since the staging of our show we haven't heard much about stepping and we assumed, until » Notre Dame dis- rt was as dead as the day we lifted our pen and slew it. “It served no real. purpose, would muse, in our unintellectual way. “and it might just as well be dead.” How wrong we were! How unfair! No real purpose? What arrant nonsen: Foot ball will be more interesting than ever. Look! there goes Half-back Kootz around we right end. But gaze again! As he completes the swing, there’s the end smack in his path, prepared to spill him. Is your life! He's taking out of his pocket. A large chiffon veil! He lifts it over his head. hen, as it flutters in the breeze, he dances nimbly out of the path of the bewildered end. His only difficulty is hanging onto the ball while he manipulates the veil, which latter business requires both hands. But the problem is solved as quickly as it s. See! He carries the ball between teeth. His training in those rose- vixt-the-dentistry dances has not been for naught. Veil flapping in the breeze and the ball gripped firmly between his uppers and lowers, he crosses the goal lin« » his mates in the grandstand thunder their approval. “A long, loud one for Kootz, with three Pavlowas on the end!” shrieks the cheer leader and a second late the stands rock. It is all very p esque. And what a rebuke to the sad- eyed intellectual who deplores the fact that his football-playing son has gone in for athletics instead of wsthetics! For, in the days to come, the complete wsthete will be the man who has played interpr tive football under the guidance of an Isadora Duncan. On with the dance, let end runs be unconfined! Let the blu: chiffon flutter for Yale and the crimson voile for Harvard!
