A professor at Havana University told him that when he was a l6- year-old kid begging for work in the dance halls of Cuba. Now, a hand full of years yater, Miguelito can welcome an interviewer in a fine hotel suite and speak with easy familiarity of Hollywood and fin- ishing my last picture"
 Tt was lucky for me find out about my singing" Valdez said in halting English. Maybe I still be in little night clubs in Cuba"
 Miguelito-Little Michael - is a swarthy, well-set-up lad whose physique confirms his claim that he was crack amateur boxer in Cuba. He is good looking in a primitive way and more than one Hollywood mogul has wondered whether he might be developed into Latin menace.
 Joins the Cugat "GraduateS'
 "Ah, the women," Miguelito grinned, waving aside the fact that his sponsor is a beautiful brunette whose night club spending is a Broadway legend and his friends include several notable society fig ures. Let us not talk of them, no?"
 ."Well, let's talk about Xavier Cugat, then.'
 Miguelito made wry face. The story Is that he quit as speciality singer for the band when the famed
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-07-29

maestro brought his group into the Waldorf Astoria for the summer season. 1t must ~- have been quite scene but Miguelito prefers that he merely be listed as another noted Cugat graduate along with Desi ArnaZ, Eddie Le Baron, Ramon Ramos and Carlos Molina.
 '"Then how about this Afro- Cuban singing of yours?"
 He frightened.
 It's the Rhythm That Counts
 "Ah, that. We'll, I sing in the new Fred Astaire picture Q song called 'Bim Bam Bum First I sing 1t, how you say, straight Then I sing my own sounds like "ee- lu-bey' and 'chan-go-o-o-o'."
 DO they mean anything?"
 Some words do, some are just words. It does not matter. What is important is the rhythm-like a rhumba yet not 8 rhumba. Maybe you know the song Babalu?' Tn Cuba they call me not Miguelito but 'Babalu'."
 He said Juan Romero, owner of the home of Rudolph Valentino in Hollywood = Falcons Lair - wanted to convert the house into a night club for him.
 Funny" Miguelito smiled, "peo- pie always say must go forward. My music Is backwards to jungles, but makes success, too. Funny, eh?"
