The group that thrilled me most were the Afro-Cubans. I've always liked our American hillbillies on the air; these are Cuban hillbillies. They beat the drums they had made themselves, played the native instruments and sang. It was so strange to see them making this most primitive music in that highly functional, utterly modern studio. It was the old world meeting the new.
Mr. Mestre had left nothing undone. From Mexico he had invited many high officials and some Mexican talent, including a comedian who had me laughing till the tears came.
And things were arranged so that we really saw Cuba, including some "night life."
One night we were having supper at a cafe with a couple of men from CMQ. One of them asked me what I wanted most to see in Cuba.
I said, "I'd like to go to a typical Cuban night club." (And I'll tell you a secret which I didn't tell them. I've never been to a night club in the United States.) "I want to see them play the maracas," I said, "and do the native Cuban dances."
One of the men — and I think he was a technician at the network — pointed across the table at the other Cuban and said, "There is the greatest maraca player in Cuba."
With that he began to beat out rhythms on his plate using his knife and fork as sticks. It was simply wonderful and I urged him to go on. By the way, that was the first night I aired my Spanish and they were all happy and surprised that I could speak their language.
Well, sir, that fellow got wound up. He took all the water glasses around the table and tuned them to a scale. He played on them, making beautiful Spanish music.
He asked me where I was staying and I told him at the National Hotel. Then he asked, "Do you have a balcony?"
I said, "Of course."
He said, "I will serenade you tonight."
He didn't of course, and I knew he wouldn't but I thought it was cute of him even to suggest it.
Since a miracle had happened to me, just my being there, I felt God was on my side. He certainly was when I met the President of Cuba. Yes, I did that, too. I did everything. And I don't know what possessed me to do what I did except that God was looking after me. This is what happened:
The President of Cuba, Raymond Grau e San Martin, dedicated Radio
centro with a speech over CMQ at twelve noon. We all heard it and loved it. Afterwards he and his staff returned to one of the big studios and all of the Americans who had come down on the plane lined up to be introduced to him. Now imagine you're one of those people filing past the President. How do you know what to do?
When it came my turn to meet him I did not stick out my hand to shake his. Instead I just bowed and said, in Spanish, "Honored." How thankful I was that I had done just that and only that. For the person directly behind me started to shake hands with him and his aide, who stood behind him, said, "The president does not shake hands."
At first I thought this must be some Cuban custom. But I remembered from my days in Mexico that the Latins are great ones for shaking hands. Later I learned about President Grau. He is greatly loved in Cuba but for several years he was in exile and when, at last, he came back the people were so glad to see him that they shook his hand so much they crippled it.
Now to pick up the loose ends and to tell you the other things I did. On Thursday we had lunch at the Colony Restaurant and I've never tasted anything better than that "arroz con polio," a native dish. That same afternoon some of our party went to the Jockey Club to see the horse races but I preferred a sight seeing trip around old Havana. Later the Cuban Advertisers Association gave a cocktail party for us at the Lyceum Tennis Club and at ten o'clock that night we witnessed a Jai-alai game.
On Friday, Radiocentro was blessed by Cardinal Manuel Arteaga and all the employees and the talent of CMQ were present. Then the president spoke and, as I've told you, received everyone.
Saturday there was a wonderful luncheon at the Vedado Tennis Club and more radio programs to be seen and heard. Then we went to the Havana Yacht Club.
On Sunday we were on the Constellation flying back to the United States. When we took off from Cuba the sky above us was like blue satin and the bay below us looked like blue satin, too.
I am back now. I have told this story to my friends and my son and daughter-in-law. I am going to Washington to tell it to my daughter and her husband. It is an experience that will live in my memory forever and it makes me believe that if you want something enough, if you dream about it enough, it can and will happen.
