By Bide Dudley. Modern dancing {s a form of amusement that is well named. For, no decidedly modern is it that new mteps are being invented almost every day. Ask any professional ball-room dancer if he has anything new to exhibit in his work and he'll feel hurt. They're all inventors and they're busy all the time. But this isn't to be a discussion of the superabundance of new dance steps. It is to be the actual expert- ence of a man who tried to find somebody who could explain @ re- cently devised terpsichorean move- ment—the alligator dip. Arthur Barney, who taught Jobn Mason all he knows about dancing, met me on Broadway yesterday and beamingly drew mo aside. “I've got @ new ono,” ho sald. Tinking he meant his haif-restorer was beginning to work, I said: janiee You'll soon have enough to comb. “Not hair!” hoe almost shouted. “A i dance step!

Next you come up and then do it all over again.” “Why? Didn't you do it right the first time?” He gave me a look of scorn and walked away. I saw Lew Dockstader D. quit drinking,” he replied, 1 mean the dance—the alliga- sald Lew, “I should {: ine hat dances it is payin gator pat REGGIE 18 SURE IT’S A SEMI- CIRCULAR DANCE. I didn’t think it fair to take any more, since I hadn't paid to get in, so I left Lew and strolled up the Broadway boardwalk in the Longacre district. The next acquaintance I met was Reggie Bryan, clubm: owner and a dancer who hi any dancing these nights?” “Much,” he replied. “How about the alligator dip?” “I haven't got an alligator grip. ‘3 a" — “Just a moment! The alligator dip it's a dance.” “Oh, yes,” said Regge “I do it. It's a semi-circular dance, First you turn the girl to the right; then shift your arm and look over her left shoulder, At that point you twirl on the toes till you feel dippy and"— “That's plenty,” I said. “I don't believe I'd care about the dippy part.” With that I left him and moved over to the unemployed side of the street. I mingled in the crowd of un- attached stars awhile, but fortunate- ly saw no one I knew, and, there- fore, gathered no additional data on the wonderful hits made tn Kanka- kee and Three Oaks last season. Re- turning to the more hopeful side of Broadway I ran into Willard Mack, “Willard,” I sald, “I you were ja dancer, There's a ques"— “A dancer?” he said, “Say, 1 once won a medal ing. Then I took up acting.” “Many a good cook is spoiled the minute daughter learns to thump out ‘My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean’ on the piano,” I said, “But that's get- ting away from the point. I'm try- ing to find out what this alligator dip ia like.” “My boy, you certainly have come to the right place,” said Willard. “First you throw back your head ant hump your shoulders, Then you glide to the left and kick in”——— “So that's where you got the name for that play, eh?” “What play?” “Kick In,” * “What has my play got to do with the alligator dip?” “You can search me.” “All right, I won't tell you how to do the dance then,” said Willard, And away he strode.
