Dance Jan. Is

La Argentina, the celebrated
Spanish dancer, comes to the Ma.
tional Theater on Friday after
noon, January 25, at 4::30 o'clock,
in one of her glamorous and
captivating dance recitals, accord
ing to a current announcement
by Mrs. Dorothy Hodgkin Dorsey,
who will present the famous
dancer in this city.
"The most glamorous figure
among living dancers" as the
New York Herald.Tribune called
La Argentina, following her New
York recital a week ago, has been
a stranger to American shores
since 1882, but she has returned
to the United States for a brief
tour of the principal cities and
Washington may now look for
ward to another brilliant dance
performance next month.
A bewildering array of new
costumes and no less than three
wholly new dances were noted by
the Manhattan commentators.
The new dances are Madrid,
1890" danced to music by Ora
nados; "Zapateado," also danced
to Granados' music, and the "Ale'
grais-Solera." In addition, La
Argentina's program included the
De Falla "Jota," the delicate and
charming Philippine "Carinosa," 3"
the greatly beloved Fire Dance" "
the stately and beautiful Dance
No 5" of Granados, ''Legende" and
Madrid, 1S00," both to music by
Albentz; the "Andalusian," which
used to be called "Andalouse Sen
timentale" and the now-famous
"Corrida."

by Argentina at her New York
recital last week, she was forced
by audience demand to repeat

HindaWausau Delights Patrons
At Gayety Theater

Maestro Jimmy Lake, Of the
Gayety, has gathered himself quite
a load of entertainment for the
Christmas holiday shoppers in
"Honky Tonk," featuring Hinda
Wausau.
Miss Wausau, absent from the
local stage for two seasons, ap-
pears more alluring than ever.
She has g. vibrant, fascinating
personality and the second of her
two appearances of the evening
brought down the house.
But as theater as the blonde
flame is, she has plenty of talented
assistance in the current produc-
ton. Joan Collette, in two daring
dances, was enthusiastically re.
ceived and probably scored the in
dividual hit of the evening.
Also "Honky Tonk" presents us
with highly original and pleas
ing comic in Ralph Walton who
equals anything in tie comedy
line that the Gayety has given
us this season. Mr.. Walton is
another of those adventuring
souls who isn't afraid to try out
something a little :fferent.
The show is rather more pre-
tentious than the usual run. 1t
is excellently mounted and while
it runs something over the usual
time it is swift and tuneful en-.
tertainment.
Fred Binder and Charles
Schultz do good work in the COM
edy nd while the fe ninine con.
tingent boasts such names as
Jewel So .lthern, Mary Ellis and
Mary Brown.
In brief-a bang-up show for
Christmas week or any week.
