DANCERS ENJOY SEAL TREAT From Thursday's Xany The crowd attending the American Legion dance here last night enjoyed a real treat in the splendid music of Tracy Brown's Oklahomans, a big 11 piece dance band that played at the northern Iowa lakes last summer and has held forth at Roseland Garden in Omaha the past several months. A number of the members of this band were here at the opening dance with the old "Oklahomans," which later became known as Tracy-Brown's Re cording orchestra and is now playing a season's engagement in Pittsburgh. They have all the , skill and special arrangement of numbers employed by the large recording and radio or chestra and their music scored a dis tinct hit with the dancers. The condition of the country roads served to keep many away, while the presence of Lent took further toll of the attendance, which was not suf ficient to warrant booking a return date at this time. In fact, the dance business is pret ty well shot all over the country right now, largely lue to the advent of road houses, with their opportun ity for greater freedom and privacy, radios to provide music by the great orchestras, and electrically reproduc ed records. Many of the dance balls in the larger cities have been forced to quit business entirely on this ac count. Announcement was made of the forthcoming masquerade ball to be held on Saturday night of this week.
