No one ever could ex plain what it meant or how it came to be uttered. It just had a happy sound, and that was the way Bill made people feel when he danced. fiffiifia xma Robinson was called “The King of the Tap Dancers” and he was exactly that. He never went in for acrobatic or balletic embell ishments of his footwork. He just combined those meticulous taps of the toes, soles andm'eeis f his feet in such rhythmic fash ion as to make it seem the easiest thing in the work. He originat ed the famous stair dance which so many performers have copied. Bill couldn't remember when he wasn’t dancing. He was shuff ling out steps in his bare feet when he was an orphan of ten« der age in Richmond. Va., where he was born May 25. 1879. He never took a dancing lesson in his life but he gave many of them. , His grandmother, who had been a slave, contributed What little raising the youngster had. At eight he was a plckininny dancer in a touring.‘ show called "The South before the War.” He danced on street corners and in saloons for pennies. . I, He sold papers, shined shoes and worked around a racing sta ble in Washington, D.C., as he grew up. At 17 he had become a vaudeville partner ~of an older and well known negro perform er named George Cooper. BEGAN SOLO ACT In 1913 Robinson became a single act under the guidance of Marty Forkins, a manager with whom he stuck to the end. His real rise dated from that time, although his most spectacular successes were to come adecade and more later. , 7 Robinson estimated that he geamed well ovens3,ooo,ooo with his dancing feet. He earned it in vaudeville. in musioat‘ comedy and in the movies. In his last ItWO decades his sdary generally .was around $3599 a week al though there were times when K | 't-Zf-éB E. ‘ T H E A T E R. Benton City; 1 ' SUNDAY - moquv' . EVERY . . .
