american Chorus Girls
Challenge French RiuaLS

This will be the first time an all
American house has tried TO compete
with French theatres in their own
Held on a permanent basis.
Exponents OF the American stage
predict an immense success for the
venture. Nearly everyone who has
had opportunity 20 compare tho
American chorus with it's European
stage equivalent has been struck
with the superiority OF the former.
American chorus girls dance much
better collectively and probably quite
as well individually and they are
very far from being inferior in pep"
and vivacity, for which the French
stage beauty Is renowned.
French chorus girls frequently are
graceful as individuals. but they do
not know how to dance together.
They lack that collective unity OF
movement which has made American
chorus and drill teams famous the
world over Viewed from the gall
leries. the average Partisan chorus
bles an American caste IN an
early rehearsal. before the directors
sharp tongue has lashed the kinks
out Of the beauty lineup and forced
a stage-fun Of dancers TO move like
one person.
The American colony IN Paris Is
jubliant at the prospect OF having a
chance once more to slip into a first
row seat for an evening feast Of real
American beauty and song.
