Gene La Verne, famous dance cre
ator and favorite Instructor of movie
j stars, knows all the answers to the
above. He should he's been dancing
J with girls all over the country for the
j past six years.
La Verne has alwayst been a lover
of the dance, but his career started
when he entered a contest at the
Riverside Dance Palace tn Indianapo
lis. An Indianapolis theater made La
Verne and his partner an offer and
they appeared for a week on the
stage.
Then La Verne went to Chicago,
where he took a Job teaching ball
room dancing at the McQulre School
of Dance. He was there six months.
He evolved the idea of teaching thou
sands of newspaper readers In differ
ent cities throughout the country
how to become finished dancers (no
pun intended) In a few lessons.
His, first sponsorship was from the
Cincinnati Post and so successful did
the idea turn out to be that the
Kelth-Albee-Orpheum circuit sent for
him to return to Chicago, and gave
him three cities In which to test his
idea.
In South Bend, Ind.. under the au
spices of the Tribune. La Verne
taught 500 Notre Dame students as
well as hundreds of others.
Then to Springfield, 111., and from
there to Madison. Wis., with success
again meeting him at both places.
South to Memphis, Tenn., where the
Press Sclmtter sponsored La Verne.
His first new dance creation. The
Bendola. was Introduced there and
taught over 1500 girls, 100 of them
apeparlng In the final contest on the
stage of the Pantages theater.
One city led to another and event
ually La Verne landed In Hollywood.
Hollywood meent movie stars, and La
Verne taught 112 of the leading favor
ites of the cinema the proper way
to use hips, feet and body to make
each step one of beauty and grace.
La Verne felt that if he could show
the public that well known people,
such as the stars, were Interested In
his method of instruction, the art
would be more widely recognized. It
was In Hollywood that he created his
newest and most beautiful creation.
"The Dance of the Stars."
At the Paramount lot, La Verne
taught Carole Lombard the entire
routine In 30 minutes and so Im
pressed the stlidio officials that other
studios were soon asking for him.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer sent for him.
He taught Jean Parker and the fol
lowing day was given Jean Harlow,
one of their leading stars, as part
ner. In one short lesson he had
taught her the dance.
From Metro he went to other stu-

dios and eventually had taught 112
of the leading stars his new dance
creation.
La Verne believes there Is as much
talent off the stage as on It and also
maintains that many of the out
standing stars of today were dis
covered through dance contests. Gin
ger Rogers he cites as one of the out
standing examples. She was unknown
until the winning of a Charleston
contest in Houston. Texas, thrust her
before the public eye.

readers, and the chance to win $25
first prize In a dance contest on the
