Early American Dance Clubc
members plan to bring back ipto
full fashion that increasingly popu
lar dance, the square dance, when
they meet Monday night, May
19th, at 8:30 in the Service Cen

have invited as their guests th,e
entire membership of Atlantasi
famous Promenade Club, who are
most enthusiastic in promoting this
clean type of wholesome entertain
ment,
According to Bill = Monroe,
founder and promoter of the;
Promenade Club, 40 members of
that club have charted a special
bus to come to Athens Monday
night. He said it was possible that
they would bring one of their thre’e '
orchestras te help the local club’s
Mmusicians make music.
Possibly it will be Uncle Bud
and his Plantation Players, who!
in their 10-gallon hats lend color
to the scene as they coax,melogiyl
and rhythm from piano, banjo,
guitar, and bass fiddle. 1
“All Join Hands”

Ing the 35 couples of the local
club, dressed in costume, will lead
out with William Sutton or John

of the Promenade Club will be in-]
Vited to do the-next set with Fred |
Calietie directing. They will a_lso]
dress in costumes for the cccasion
With shiny satin shirts of all colors,
With big contrasting ties for the
Men; and long full-skirted print
dresges, many of them flower-
SPangled, for the ladies. Ay
~ The Promenaders will bring
Some new dances to the Athens’
club. ‘Bill and Ila Monrece, Fred
“nd Mary Collette learned these
¢W dances last summer when
'€y attended the famous Western
:‘\xm-x Ican Dance Class in Colorado
obrings. This class was directed
by Dy, Lloyd Shaw, founder of the
Cheyenne "Mountain School., and
Who is famous throughout the na
lion for his knowledge of the
“duare dance. Dr. Shaw has
" itlen one of the most used books
"' square dancing. Some of these
€W dances are ‘the Glow Worm
(fu".utte, Narcissus, Laces and
Graces and the Portland Fancy.
Alter the first two sets the two
clubs will join together for a
whirl around the floor to get the
time and feel of the music and as
Fred Collette calls the sets each
dancer will be off to “swing your
partner” with every couple on the
ifloor.
Between square sets some of At
{ lanta’s most accomplished dancers
twill give exhibitions of more in
ltricate folk dances. Arnold Inge
mann, a native of Norway, with
his partner always delights the
audience with the Swedish Hoboi
ot some other typical Scandina
vinan folk dance. The evening
would not be complete without
Mary and Fred Collette giving
some artistic masterpieces of in
| tricate couple dances.
i Games Popularity
Mr. Collette will tell you,
{ “Square dancing is a good mixer.
'Everybody has a good ‘time to
‘gethey. In a way it is an adult ver
sion of chilhood games which lin
ger pleasantly in our memories.
It really is a matter of playing
these games and developing de
signs, in time with music. We con
sider it proof that square dancing
is a most wholesome form of
amusement, that the Promenade
lClub members are invited to en
| tertain at youth centers, and rec
|reation centers of various Atlan
jta churches and schools. ‘Atlania
Iseerris to be enjoying the KEarly
American dances more and more.”
Mr. Collette called more than a
hundred dances in and around At
lanta during the past year: 1
Mr. Monroe, founder of the
Promenade Club will tell you, “At

like a burning forrest fire.” It is
earnest desire that this type of

Battle Ship Oklahoma,Raised From Dead
At Pearl Harbor, Sinks In Mid-Pacific
PEARL HARBOR, May 17—
(AP)—The tragic battleship Okla
homa, raised from a shallow grave
after the Japanese assault on
Pearl Harbor, sank quietly in
mid-Pacific, thwarting the main
land junkyard for which she was
bound.
The venerable warship, symbol
of American sorrow and pride,
went down without a soul on
board at 1:40 a. m. (7:10 a. m,
Eastern Standard Time), 540 miles
northeast of Pearl Harbor.
~ One week ago today she had
left in tow of the tugs Monarch
and Hercules, and was due in San
Francisco Bay on Memorial Day.
The Hull was shipshape when
she ieft. Suddenly and inex
plicably she began to list heavily
late yesterday.
Last night Capt. Kelly Sprague
of the Hercules radioed that waves
were washing over the Oklahoma'’s
desolate decks—long since strip
ped of guns and superstructure.
He was ordered to head back for
Peayi Harbor, but a little later—
Full Associated Press Service
~ He called on both Russia and
the United States to realize that
neither can dictate the terms of
peace and that “there is no place
for the ‘take it or leave it’ atti
tude.”
Byrnes’ speech was for a gather
ing of variety clubs international
in receiving the 1946 award which
this organization of people from
the entertainment world presents
annually to some person who has
“helped to make this world a bet
ter world.”
Byrnes’ speech and the presen
tation of the award actually took
place privately here on Thursday.
At that time the entire affair was
filmed for showing to the variety
clubs dinner tonight in Holly~-
wood.
It was Byrneg’ first major pub
lic pronouncement on foreign
policy since he turned over his
office to Gen. George C. Marshall
early this year, although the for
mer secretary has testified at the
capital on the Italian peace treaty.
Imperfect World
In saying that great powers
should not be too stubborn in their
demands, the former cabinet mem
ber declared that “in this imper
fect world there is no perfect
peace.”
He urged that the people of the
United States “not demand per
fectionism.”
~ Calling on the Allied powers to
“negotiate with each other: on
terms of eguality,” he added:
“They are not called upon to
sacrifice fundamental pringiplés
but they are called upon to make
wise decisions as to what are
questions or principles and what
are questions of policy.”
(Secretary Marshall, returning
from the Moscow conference of
foreign ministers, blamed its
failure to write German and Aus~
trian peace treaties on the Rus-§
sians and said: “We must not com
promise on great principles in or
der to achieve agreement for
agreement’s sake. At the same
time, we must sincerely try to un
| derstand the point of view of those
wiith whom we differ.”) |
i Obstacles Surmountable 1
“If war should come, it will not
be because the people want war,
but because of the incapacity of
those who control the govern
ments of the world. ‘
“l do not believe there exists
such bankruptey of statesmanship.
I deny that conflict is inevitable.‘
Cn the contrary, I believe we can
make the peace and we can keep
the peace. I realize the difficulties.
But we can overcome those dif
ficulties.”
The former secretary was in
troduced by Chief Justice Vinson
who said of Byrnes:
“He has taught us the wisdom
of firmness and patience in the
pursuit of peace and the well
being of common folks.” .
RESTS CASE
GREENVILLE, S. C.,, May 17.—
(AP)—The state rested its . case

as if determined to escape an
ignominous fate on the scrap heap
—the Oklahoma parted the tow
lines and piunged toward the bot
tom of the ocean—three miles
down.
Seamen compared her end with
that of the famous British battle
ship Warspite, which on April 23
was wrecked on the Cornish coast,
also while being towed to a break
er’s yard.
Dried Clearly
The tugs stood by until day
break, but so cleanly had the
Oklahoma died that not even a
scrap of flotsam was to be seen.
Thus closed the colorful but un
heroic career of a ship that never,
in two wars, succeeded in fulfill
ing her intended destiny. She
never, in all her 31 years, had
fired a shot at an enemy.
The 29,000-ton ship *was laid
down in 1912, launched March 23,
1914, and finally commissioned
May 2, 1916. The authoritative

ESTABLISHED 1833
Athens, Ga., Sunday, May 18, 1947. A. B. C. Paper—Single Copy, 5¢
- ATLANTA, May i7—(AP)—A
second attack upon 3 matron in
fashionable northwest Atlanta con
fronted ‘police tonight as they
pressed the hunt for the slayer of
Peggy Refoule, pretty socialite
wife of a French artist.
The latest attack was. reported
by Mrs. Dan Quisenberry. Police
Officer L. R. Walker quoted her
as saying a negro man grabbed
'und knocked her down in the
driveway of her home. The negrc
ran when she kicked him. l
The Quisenberry home is in the
same vicinity as the Refoule home.
Mrs. Refoule’s body was found
face-up in Peachtree Creek near
her home Wednesday night. She
had been strangled and her body
ravished.
Officer Walker’s beat covers
both the Refoule and Quisenberry
homes.
No Connection
Mrs. Quisenberry was able only
to describe her assailant as tall
and yaung. Fulton ° County
Police Chief Neal Eliis said that
so far there was nothing to con
nect the attack upon her with the
Refoule slaying.
Ellis said a white man and a
negro had been arrested for
questioning in the Refoule mur
der, but that both were released
when police became satisfied
neither was connected with the
case. Earlier the chief said that the
negro was the only one arrested.
Police telephones were kept
busy by callers who offefred in
formation on the killing, but so
far, Ellis said, “we have nothing
definite.”
~ Laboratory tests still were un
‘der way. So far they have led to
‘nothing. The tiny piece of red
fiber found under one of Mrs.
Refoule’s fingernails turned out to
be a thread from the sweater of
her nine-year-old son, Jon. Police
had hoped it was from the clothes
of her killer,
The cord used to strangle the
young matron still is missing.
. Police are undecided whether she
. was slain by a burglar in her home
lor whether she was attacked and
assaulted as she walked along the
creek bank. Two diamond rings
' and a watch believed to have been
taken by the killer have not been|
t found.
