OLD PERSIAN BINDING
STOLEN FROM LIBRARY
17th Century Book Part Taken
From Congressional Display
Not Highly Prized.
A brazen thief who made off with a
17th century Persian book binding
from the Library of Congress was
being hunted by police today.
William C. Boyd, superintendent of
the library, reported the binding was
taken some time Sunday after an exhi
bition case had been pried open.
Apparently the vandal knew little or
nothing about the relative values of
other bindings in the case, since the
binding he took was less highly prized
than the others, although more ornate.
The binding is said to have only
nominal value.
Police were asked to check the city's
bookstores, in the belief an attempt
might be made to sell the binding.
DANCER ‘GROWS UP’
Roberta Jonay Says ‘Little Girl’
Routines Are in Past.
Roberta Jonay. the 22-year-old
Florida professional dancer who last
year was a guest of Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt at the White House, danced
at the annual White House press party
and later accompanied her hostess on
several inspection tours of Government
projects, returned to town last night
announcing that as a dancer she has
grown up.”
She explained that formerly she did
“nice little girl routines.” Now, she
says, each of her numbers tells a
definite type of story. Guests at a
hotel entertainment saw her depict
a magazine cartoon character, dem
onstrate her idea of the connection
between 'big apple” steps and the
motions of a bird dance, and perform
a graceful waltz.
MEDALS ACCEPTED
Oen. Malm Craig, chief of staff of
the Army, this morning accepted on
behalf of the War Department 44
medals to be awarded this year to the
outstanding students of the Citizens'
Military Training Camps throughout
the country. The medals were ac
companied by engraved citations signed
by the commanding officers of the
stations where the camps are located.
The presentation was made by Lt.
Col. Harry Coope. U. S. A., retired,
chairman of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, and Lt. Charles Weickhardt,
U. S. N.. retired, also of the Veterans
of Foreign Wars.

250 COUPLES DANCE
ON ELLIPSE ROAD
W. P. A. Orchestra Plays Under
‘Phoney’ Moon as Outdoor
Season Beopens.
To swing-time tunes, 250 couples,
most of them of high school age,
scuffed their shoes on the asphalt and
admired a "phoney” appearing moon
last night as street dancing was re
newed here.
The dancing was made possible by
the Office of National Capital Parks
and the scene was set on a roped-off
section of the Ellipse roadway, be
tween Fifteenth and Seventeenth
streets N.W.
Aside from the wear and tear on
shoe leather, there were no incidents,
the dance going oft without a "hitch”
as the big-applers, truckers, shaggers
and those seized with acute-inventive
ness fell under the spell of Bob Mer
chant's District W. P. A. Orchestra,
which played for two hours from a
truck.
Since the public seems to like it,
the street dances will be staged every
Monday evening, from 9 to 11 o'clock,
through September 26.
