Gilda Gray's alleged new dance
creation, given the somewhat
significant nomenclature Of the
devil dance" Is as big a mys.
terry az the secret her trembling
shoulders were when she shook
into stag fame with her shlmmy.
The cause of all the secrecy

to the originator's role Of the
shimmy, Charleston and Black
