By CYD CHARISSE For " United Piess International Hollywood (UPI) Want to be a wall-flower? Then learn to dance. It's the best way I know to stay out of the limelight at any party when the music starts and the beat begins. It's perfectly silly but dancing on the screen is like smallpox to a social career. All eligible partners consider the girl who has been billed as a dancer a pro and as such, completely out of their class. This is ridiculous. What Mr. Average Man doesn't real ize is that dancing for the screen is very different from dancing for pleasure at a night club or a private social gath ering. Why they think that we, as dancers, do nothing but exhibition numbers, is something I never will under stand. Of course, I'm not alone on this tight little non-dancing island. Every girl I know who is known as a dancer on the screen has the same problem. And so do the men. ' Occasionally when Fred As- taire and I attend the same party, he will ask me to dance. And what happens? Suddenly we discover we are CD - . Would Olke To Say o To each end off r? om of you who helped make our Grand Opening a huge Success!

The awful part is that we both know we are terrific disappointments to our audi ence because we just dance and aren't half as sharp at the sambas or tangoes as most of the non-professional guests present. Problems for . Men Actually, men dancers have more of a problem than the girls. Occasionally they are al most forced to ask a girl to dance and, unless they go in for a few fancy spins, their partners are shattered. But let them try to slip in an ex tra, glide or two and what happens? Several days later they are shocked to learn that they are considered danced floor show-offs.
