Ruby Keeler Is Tapping At Your Edito
We presented a tap-dancing strip, similar to this on ‘‘Go Into Your Dance” — and newspa
pers throughout the country literally gobbled it up. Papers that are considered ‘tough’ to crash gave it good space. Which prompted us to present the three dance strips on these pages. Ruby Keeler shows the folks how to do the ‘Shipmates Hop,’ a tap dance she does in the film. The photos were specially posed by Miss Keeler for the dance strips.
Lessons are simple, clear and easily learned. If you don’t use it as a newspaper plant, you could print up heralds containing the steps, and hand ’em out at dance halls and the like.
Three dance strips available in one unit. Order mat No. 502—50c.
DOIN’ THE ‘SHIPMATES HOP? [teen vot |
1. Now let's start with the feeling that we all can be tap dancers, and if you . work hard on these lessons, you can do the ‘Shipmate Hop,’ a dance I do in “Shipmates Forever.’ First position is to stand at attention, right hand raised in salute, and right knee bent slightly forward.
2. Then you tap with left heel once, short and stacatto, and immediately tap forward with right foot. This is done by kicking right foot outward, grazing floor slightly and bringing right foot down fast and tapping floor hard. Repeat this left heel and right toe tap twice to the rhythm of a drum.
3. After completing the two taps, jump in the air three times, landing on the toes each time and making a short tap each time you land. In order to get the best tap on this hop, do not bend knees, but try to keep your legs as stiff as possible.

is to tap forward with the right foot, left foot slightly bent and left hand extended. After the tap, continue the right foot forward with toe pointed, and then bring the foot down sharply in a stamp, landing on the right foot.

4. Now repeat this entire routine, but this time start on the left foot first. In order to really do this first lesson correctly, you cannot expect to read this description and immediately do the dance. It will require practice before it is done correctly and you will then be ready for Lesson 2.
