Dancing Feet Bring Owners
Money, Corns and Blisters
Come and meet
Those dancing feet;
On the avenue
I’m taking you to—
Fortv-second Street.
Rhythm, rhythm, rhythm. The world wants rhythm.
And as the theme song of Buck and Bubbles states: “the
world wants rhythm bad, and Colored folks have got rhythm
for sale.” Feet, feet, feet. The dancing feet of sepias have
earned huge fortunes. Talented artists have danced their
way to fame and fortune. Without those dancing feet in
a revue, the show would be as dull as a graveyard.
We all want to see them beat out a little rhythm with
their feet. It has been called every
thing from “clod hopping,” “jig
dancing,” “buck dancing” to “tap
dancing.” A little buck and wing
stop time dancing, struts, shuf
fles, etc., are appreciated by all
lovers of vaudeville, stage, and
cafe revues. Even those who are
rated in the theatrical profession as
singers or whatnots, usually go in
to a dance upon the second chorus
of a song.
The world craves dancing — and
gift from heaven. Most any street
waif can do a little “jigging.” Many
sepias are born dancers. It is their
of the presentday dance steps as
executed by sepias, seem to close
ly resemble the various war dances
and witch doctor dances of Afri
ca. It isn't a far cry from the
jungle. The primitive savage and
the Lindy hop dancer seem kin in
this one art. There is a kindred
passion for dancing feet the world
over — and all of God’s children
can dance.
Bill Robinson, tap dancer deluxe,
Is the undisputed world's great
est tap dancer. Bill’s feet are edu
cated and can beat out any kind
of rhythm.
Bill Robinson has been dancing
since the age of five. Today he is
57 and still those hot feet of his
are in demand. The world never
wearies of good dancing. Mr. Rob
inson has earned a considerable
sum of money as a famous dancer.
He has danced practically upon
every stage in America, over and
over again. Now his art has been
transplaned to the motion pictures I
which will give him a greater au
dience. He created the famous
stair dance, which provoked a flock
of imitators all over the country.
Bojangles’ Shadow
The only man in the world who
can come anywhere near dancing
like Bill Robinson is a lad of 22
years named Bill Bailey. Bailey
has studied the technique of the
- "ddfnmitcer.'Tjttl lidtinn-n., ^tu—jyfi.
an extent that one would presume
that he is either son of Robinson
or his student. Bailey is a natur
al born dancer. His act consists
of nothing but rhythmic dancing.
While Robinson as a rule will sing
a couple of songs and tell several
funny jokes to supplement his
dancing. Bailey just taps. If Bill
Robinson is the king of tap danc
ing, Bill Bailey is the prince of
the art.
Dancing, dancing, is what makes
a well-rounded act or revue. The
public craved dancing and they
wanted beauty — so producers gave
you the chorus. And dance the
chorus must, somewhere in the pro
duction, be it ballet or a "shake”
number. There must be some danc
mgs
Shuffling Comedians
But let’s go back a few years
and work our way up to the present
time. George Walker and Aida
Overton Walker were the head
dancers in the W'illiams and Walk
er shows. Walker was a straight
man and what we in this modern
age would call a stooge for Bert
Williams. The oldest comedian on
the stage would always do a rhy
thmic shuffle. Billy King, S. H.
Dudley, “Stringbeans” and every
comedian before and after them,
developed some sort of a semi-valk
or shuffle which identified them.
They were similar to the present
day tag lines of performers to
day. Such as "Come up and see
ms sometime, tall, dark and hand
some.” We instantly associate the
phrase with Mae West. Or as
Marshall “Garbage” Rodgers, the
comedian would, say, “You hear
mo talkin’ to ya.” Or the “One
more dip will get it” of Nieodemus,
who left Cab Caloway to work with
Lucky Millinder.
One Man Dance
Few remember the team of Rec
tor and Cooper. Eddie Rector has
faded into obscurity, but Ralph
Cooper left the Regal Theater
stage as master of ceremonies and
later became head man in this pos
ition at the Apollo theater. The
team of Rector and Cooper are
credited with originating what is
known as the “one man” act in
dancing. It consists of one danc
er behind the other, both dancing
together, and creating the im
pression, from the viewpoint of the
audience, of just one man dancing.

Blazes” enlarged upon the one man
act, by placing four men behind
each other. The “Four Blazes”
gained fame with this dance in a
movie short with Ellington entitled
"Black and Tan Fantasy.’
After that picture more dancing
trios and quartets sprang into be
ing. Rutledge and Williams sprang
into limelight by imitating Rector
and Cooper. They are now in Los
Angeles. They have been seen in
several feature pictures.
The Dice Dance
Bill Robinson created the stair
dance, so the “Lucky Senven” trio
struck upon the idea to dance upon
three large blocks, painted to re
semble dice. The Three Rhythm
Kings, who are featured with Earl
Hines and who appeared in a fil
musical with Eddie Cantor, im
proved upon the original idea of
Bill Robinson and cart a huge
drum about the countrj. The
"Three Rhythm Kings” do some
fancy hoofing, with plenty of
stomping on the drum. But they
beat out rhythm. And the public
wants rhythm.
The “Four Blazes have the latest
idea, which they will employ when
they rejoin Duke Ellington. That
of dancing upon four miniature
pianos. Each tiny piano has four
keys, forming two octaves with the
four pianos. The writer saw them
rehearsing the pianos back stage at
the Regal early this year when
Duke Ellington appeared at the Re
gal theater. They dance in such a
manner hopping on the keys of
their pianos in such a manner that
they play a regular song, in ac
compament with orchestra. The
team was split when the British i
Musicians raised the ban against
American talent, as a counter move
against a similiar action started by
American Musicians, and Ellington
was unable to tour Europe this
year. Two of the lads went home
-to. 1.0:1 -Angeles-and will jprn.haJ
seen in a movie.
Dancers AH
Blanche Calloway was a dancer in
the chorus of several shows before
she became a principal. After be
coming a star she would invariably
go into her dance following a cho
rus or two of song. She later form
ed an orchestra. Cab Calloway
started his theatrical career as a
dancer at the Sunset Cafe. Lucky
Millinder also was a dancer. Clara
Townsend, his wife, was a dancer.
Josephine Baker started her ca
reer as a dancer , . . and is still a
dancer. She got her break when
Ethel Waters became suddenly ill
and could not embark for Paris
with a musical show, featuring
Claude Hopkins orchestra. Josep
hine Baker stepped into Ethel’s
place, made the trip to Paris . . and
stayed there. Flo Mills, another
girl who danced her way to fame
as a Flo Ziegfeld and Lew Leslie”
Blackbirds star. She became Ame
rica’s Sweetheart. Though she has
passed on, her memory is mourned
throughout the nation.
The theatrical public still re
member the famous dancing chorus
es of The Williams and Walker
show, the Smart Set, Whitman Sis
ters, Butterbeans and Susie, Pla
tation Days, How Come, Shuffle A
long” and other hit musical shows.
It is such choruses that keep manu
facturers of coni plasters and chi
ropodists doing a rushing business.
They are forced to take special
care of their bread winners. The
theatrical performer may not tell
you that his feet give him consider
able trouble . . . but their feet bark
for mercy during the two and three
shows a day. They Know the ad
vantage of keeping the'r hot pup
pies in perfect order Should some
thing go wrong, they couldn't dance
. . . and it wouldn't be . . ants - -
but corns, bunions and blisters.
Leonard Harper, one of the
greatest producers of today, start
ed his theatrical carper as a danc
er. He teamed with his wife for
years before he ever produced a
revue. Sammy Dyer was a dancing
boy, before becoming a producer,
and later a dance instructor. Percy
Venable also began his career as a
dancer.
Reed and Bryant
Leonard Reed and Willie Bryant
toured the nation under the billing
of Reed and Bryant, a dance team.
Reed, after winding up on athletics,
first tourned the country as a danc
ing mate with "Cutout”. Then he
joined the Whitman Sisters, which
produced Jeni LeGon. There he met
Willie Bryant. The boys remained
together for seven years. Went to
New York. Bryant became ill and
Reed returned to Chicago. Willie
Bryant formed an orchestra and
you know the rest. Reed became a
producer of cafe and stage revues.
It was Leonard Reed who brought
forth the greatest set of dancing
girls in the modern dance era . .
The Reedettes.
Katherine Perry, the wife of
Earl Hines the orchestra leader,
teamed with her former husband
under the name of "Perry and Per
ry.” She danced, sang and played
the violin in the act.
The greatest dancing teams of
today are; The Four Blazes, Three
Rhythm Kings, Pete, Peaches and
Duke; Three Browns; Mid-Night
Steppers; Billy and Charles; Rut
ledge and Williams; The Berry
Brothers; Lighting Flashes; Three
Sams; and Dink, Blink and Dink.
A love affair which culminat
ed into marriage, broke up one
of the best dancing acts in the
worldthe Berry Brothers, cyclon
ic whirlwind dancers. The pub
recalls the two youths in “Rhap
sody in Black,” which starded
Ethel Waters. The Berry Broth
ers, James and ’Nias were the
Jesse Owens’ of the stage. Those
Those lads were the fastest in
dance circles. Young 'Nias court
ed Valaida Snow, backstage at the
Garrick theater during the Chi
cago run of “Rhapsody in Black”
'Nias and wife formed a team.
James then taught his younger
brother, Warren, ’Nias’ routine,
and a new Berry Brothers team
was viewed by the public.
The Four Blazes are the great
est opening act in the country.
They have an original style of
dancing. Pete, Peaches and Duke
are the classiest dance trio. The
three Midnight Steppers are the
gratest flash acrobatic trio in
America. They are to open at the
Palladium theater in London.
The Nichoas Brothers are in a
class by themselves when it comes
to dancing. .JSurneth and Leroy
are .clefver luveple hoofJMj^^o.
"bcome a groat tiaflfagwnirWi
Three Sams, Three frown Spots
and other dance acts o' this type
are coining good money with their
educated dogs. Billy and Charles
another classy flash act will some
day be on the top ledge. Danny
and Eddie remain in big time vou
deville. If ever the team of Dink,
Blink and Dink reach New York,
mark my words, they will be
come one of the greatest dance sen
sations ever to hit Broadway.
These boys have plenty of rhythm.
They are appearing in a cafe re
vue in Kansas City at the present.
Buck and Bubbles
Buck and Bubbles are another
team that grew up on the stage.
Buck was just nine years old
when the met in Louisville in
1917 in a bowling alley. Flo Zieg
feld grabbed them off and they
have been topnotchers in vaude
ville ever since. Their act is a clas
sic It was the dancing feet of
Jeni LeGon that gave her a motion
picture contract for a thousand
dollars a week.
Avon Long struck upon an
original style of strut dancing and
won a long-time contract at the
Cotton Club and was later at the
Grand Terrace cafe. His “Brown
Boy,” an original idea on the old
strut is a classic Stepin Fetchit,
the film comedian, danced his way
into screen stardom He toured
first in a team with Ed Lee and
later as a single. It was while
he was playing at a theater in
Los Angeles that Fox was cast
ing for a sepia for a role in a
play. SteDin won the part. Dancing
feet have played a tremendous
part in all performers’ lives. They
must do a little shim sham shim
my or something in the finales.

goose pimples about. “Little
Egypt” was all the rage in great
granpap’s day at the first Chica
go World's Fair in 1893.
Following the shimmy dance
came the torch dancers. Louise “J-o
ta” Cook rose to number one po
sition. Bessie Dudley displaced
her. Elizabeth Kelly is the queen
of all torch or shake dancers. By
the time Kelly got it, the started
callng it the “Rhumba.” Louise
Cook is now the wife of Herbert
Mills of the famous quartet. Bes
sie Dudley went to Europe with
Lew Leslie’s “Blackbirds,” and
was sent back to the States. She
was replaced by Elizabeth Kel
ly. They changed Kelly’s name and
started calling her Kanakahas
from Martinique. She is still with
“Blackbirds.” Bessie Dudley join
ed Duke Ellington's troupe
It was really the Charleston
dance craze that gave birth to the
present crop of hoofers. Chief
among them is the team of Chil
ton and Thomas. Without those
dancing feet, they would be just
another young couple buried in the
great maelstrom of humans eking
out an ordinary existence. Young
Thomas also tried to improve on
Bill Robinson’s idea by dancing
on a set of dishes.
Then there is ballet, Apache,
and ballroom which is featured on
the stage. Sadie and Mary Bruce
turn out scores of youngsters
who do this type of dancing* The
artistic dancing of Meeres and
Meeres, Norton and Margot, Ba
kay and Stevenson is really beau
tiful to see. This style of dancing
has been termed “poetry in mo
tion." The team of Broomfield and
Greeley, who stayed a long time
in China and now currently ap
pearing at Sebastian's Cotton
Club in Los Angeles, rose to fame
with their style of dancing. Brown
and Marguerite were headliners
with their Apache dance several
years ago.
The Shim Sham Shimmy dance
was made popular by Pete, Peach
es and Duke. The Lindy Hop also
brought forth several dance teams,
such as Jenkins and Jenkins and
Rabit and Rabit. The Shuffle
dance never got past the ballroom
stage. This dance was. _ popular
among the younger set.
The Carioca
The “Carioca” did not bring
forth any major dance team in
sepia America. Despite the fact
that the dance in the film, "Fly
ing Down to Rio,” had an all

Feet, feet, feet. Dancing feet,
educated feet. Feet with harmony,
and rhythm, plus the attendant un
necessary evils of corns, blisters
and bunions, have spelled fame
and fortune for hundreds of hoof
ers. Ruby Keeler got her start in
Texas Guinan’s chorus. Walter
Winchell, Broadway columnist,
quit trying to be a hoofer in
1927. Aand practically everyone
who sees a clever dancer beating
out rhythm, to himself, wishes that
he too, were a hoofer
Th latest dance craze is called
"trucking on down.” It was made
popular by “Nicodemus,” a come
dian. Noble Sissle has written a
song of the same name and fea
tures it in his new revue Don
Redmon has also written a song
entitled “The Joe Louis Truck.”
The dance is a lazy rhtythmic hop
done to practically any tempo of
music. On wonders whether this
new craze will develop a new set
of dancers, as in the case of its
predecessors. All in all, dancing
is good exercise and good eco
nomics for the shoe building and
repairing industry. Tap dancing
caused a complete new department
to be installed in all shoe com
panies—the making of steel taps
to fit on dancers’ shoes.

Shapiro. Flashing their guns,
they soon subdued him and took
$17.46 out of the cash register and
fled in the car. The next victim
was the attendant at the gas sta
tion at 4447 Michigan avenue.
At 8:30, just a half-hour after
these desperadoes had pulled their
'first job, Officer Emanuel E. James
was standing in a cleaning estab
lishment on Prairie avenue just
north of 43rd street, when he saw
two men run by the place and into
an alley which runs east and west.
Behind them was Dan Xenophon,
proprietor of the store at 300 E.
43rd street. Officer James pur
sued them, firing one shot into the
air.

Meanwhile, every squad in the
district had received a radio flash
to be on the lookout for the two

store, Squad 111, followed by Squad
11 commanded by Thomas Norton,
drove into the alley when they ob
served a crowd there. Officer
James first saw Green as he was
leaping over the fence in the rear
of 4239 Prairie avijiue. The ban
djt was yelling to his companioji
who”wis ir/the basement, to come
on, and at the same time, opened
fire on the policeman, who returned
it effectively with the result that
the robber fell, mortally wounded.
He died on the way to the hospital.
Policemen Phillip Norris, Merrill
Coleman and Joseph Craven of
Squad 111, surrounded the base
ment where the other robber was
hiding. Craven went in after him,
and dragged him out. Unfortu
nately, the policeman slipped and
fell; the bandit took advantage of
this mishap, struggled for a min
ute with the officer for his gun
and then eluded capture by running
down the alley toward a throng of
spectators, making it impossible
for the police to use their guns on
him.

Did Not Hear Siren
When questioned further, Offi
cer Gleason said he did not hear
a siren or see Collins’ car. The only
thing he said he saw was the car as
it cut through traffic into the fill
ig station. Then he ran over in
front of it and because the boys in
the car would not throw up their
hands, he fired.
William E. Ramsey, 7024 East
End avenue, one of the eyewitness
es to the shooting, testifed that
Lewis’ car was not moving at the
time Gleason fired.
"Did you think your life was in
danger?” asked Depu.y Coroner
Benjamin A. Grant.
“They refused to hold up their
hands,” was Gleason’s curt reply.
Then Gleason answered Attor
ney Green’s question by saying that
he saw both of Lewis’s hands be
fore he fired and they were emp
ty.
Following a conference held by
the boy’s father, Attorney Wendel
E. Green and First Assistant
Crowley, it was made known that
one of the aces of the state’s at
torney’s office, James Brown, will
represent the state at today's hear
ing.
The most amazing angle of the
case is that of all the people who
gave their names as witnesses of
the killing, the police were unable
to produce one eye witness.
Many who have followed the case
since the boy’s death last Satur
day afternoon at St. Luke’s hos
pital at 6:15, asert that it was
one of the most wanton slayings in
the history of Chicago.
It was learned also that after
the closing of the inquest where
Howard testified that he cautioned
Lewis not to drive so fast and so
recklessly because the police might
get them, Howard repudiated this
statement and said that the police
had told him to say it and through
fear that they would beat him, he
complied with their demand.

USED IN DOMESTIC ROW
The police of the Fifth District

avenue Saturday morning to quiet
the McFarland family, engaged in
a bitter domestic row. Mrs. Earl

necessary to remove the woman
to the Provident hospital. Police
took him to the lockup.
TWO JAILED AFTER
FIGHT OVER RENT
Enree Robinson, 4617 Michigan

Robinson was slighly injured in the
melee, sustaining a knife wound
on the left arm.
The disorderly conduct charge
lodged against Morgan Neil, 317
E. 31st st., was dismissed Monday
when he was brought before Judge
Gibson E. Gorman at 48th st.,

Willie Roberts told Judge Gorman
that Neil was told to leave the
apartment and refused to ow
“Take your things and leave
the place,” the judge advised Neil
as he discharged him.
“Judge he aint got nothing
there except some pants,” replied
the complaining witness.
"Aw that’s not so, Judge-—I got

They left the courtroom trying
to agree on a true list of Neil’s
worldly possessions.

Charged with beating his wife,
Joseph Crawford, 369 E. 43rd st.,

that during a domestic row Craw

wife several times in the face with
a hammer.
When arraigned on a charge of
petty larceny before Judge Gib
son E. Gorman, Monday at 48th
st. court, Thomas Terrv. 3608

jurist ruled that there was not
enough evidence in the case to
substantiate the claim that the de
fendant entered the room of Ethel
Brown and stole $3.
Terry was a roomer in the
apartment and according to Miss
Brown he must have been the one
who took her $3. The important
factor of pointing Terry out as
the person whom she saw take
the money, however, never mater
