THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Friday, March 15, 1940
Broadway-
Collegian
Jo WhiHcy
The other day, It anyone cares,
we dropped by a cocktail party
towed by Warner Brothers for
Miriam Hopkins and Errol Flynn,
who are here, as the saying goes,
"to see the plays and to do some
shopping."
Mr. Flynn, of course, was the
focal point of the concourse, due
not only to the fact that the Flynn
features are always something to
step up feminine blood pressure
but also thanks to Mr. Fs recent
panning by some of the local writ
ing lads. It was Mr. Flynn who
Bent Orson Welles a ham for
Christmas (get the cute joke?)
which prompted the Herald Tri
bune's famed critic, Richard Watts,
to remark that of all people in the
world Mr. Flynn should be the last
to name names that even began to
sound like ham.
Miss Hopkins looked a trifle
bored. She's very lit-tree you
know, of course, and so we sidled
up to her in an unguarded moment
and asked her if she knew an edi
tor who wanted to buy a wonder
ful short story.
She smiled sweetly and said,
"Really. Do you write?"
In Manhattan spots, at least
those frequented by the collegians,
jitterbugglng is dated stuff. It
seems on the way out to stay.
To be popular today with the
maidens from Vassar, Wellesley,
Smith and Barnard, you've prac
tically got to have that South
American way about you. In
short, you're duty bound to master
the kicks of La Conga and the
glides and dips of the rhumba and
the tango.
Most "name" spots hereabouts,
including the Stork Club and El
Morocco, have added Cuban bands,
serenaders and assorted entertain
ers, which snare the collegiate
week-enders.
Riding the crest of the craze,
Roseland, a Broadway dance hall
for the masses, has launched a
weekly Cuban Fiesta where the
uninitiated cam come aad learn all
the wiggles for the piddling cum
of forty cants. It's become the
Mecca of the dance pilgrims of
both sexes who like to dance- but
don't know or care to take, a
partner.
