that's Infest in English ballroom dancing.
Possibly the dance which will arouse most interest here is the new rhythm dance. It is clearly of the same family as the rhythm dances which have been the craze in Hong- Rong for the past four years. There la the same accent, the transference of weight on the counter beat, the quick slip-away step, and a hesita- tion open promenade. But there is ning much more in the Andrew- Sykes interprelation. It is thrilling to watch their outside-of-the-partner variations which include closed re- verse shuffica and cross-over feathers.
It is much more elaborate thon the Hongkong rhyllum dances, but also much smoother, more lilting, and is endowed with a grace which has never been noticeable in the so-called "Shanghai Rhythm".
MAKES YOUR HEAD BUZZ But their most masterful inter- pretnilons are those of the present- day waltz, the tango hnd the slow fox-trot. Miss Sykes has long been queen of the up-to-date nlow fox- trot and her Interpretation with Andrew is, an example of perfect movement, rhythm, and synimetrical aligament.
Some of the variationg, it which the lady "runs" round the gentle- man, makes one's head buzz in be-- wilderment, but the case of accom- plishment and the veritable poetry of movement, are among the most | fascinathug things imaginable.
Gripps patrons will revel in the tango of these two talented dancers, and they will insist upon an encore when they view the simple, but ohl so effective Rhumba, with lia shume steps and toe-pointing movements
Hongkong is in for a treat in ball- room dancing for the next month or so. Our one regret will be Andrew and his partner will be leav ing us at the end of that unit. They
