"The Bitter Tea of
General Yen" Starts
Friday at Majestic
Barbara Stanwyck and Nils An-
ther are teen co- tarred In the
screen dramatisation of Grace
Stone's novel, "The Bitter Tea of
General Yen," starting Friday at
the RKO-Majestlc Theater.
Two such characters aa the In-
scrutably magnetic General Yen
and the propriety-bound Megan
Davis, as played by lilss Stanwyck
and Asther, in this unusual film
unfolded in modem China are rare
in the history of the screen.
Af tha story Is screened, Megan
Daria arrives In Shanghai from
New England. She is to b« married
to Or. Strike, played by Gavin
Gordon, a medical missionary. They
are not in love—it is • marriage
for mutual service.
Before the marriage ceremony Is
performed, Megan Davis is acci-
dentally made captive by General
Yen'a troops. She is taken to the
General's luxurious palace In an
Inland province. She ia virtually his
prisoner, yet this fascinating man,
educated at Oxford, a man of big
business, treats her with an Orien-
tal deference, which she finds en-
tirely captivating.
General Yen'e army and his
fighting come first with him, be-
euae only by winning battles can
he continue to maintain the weal-
thy province he governs. Yen star-
tles himself, however, by falling in
love with the girl.
Megan Davis finds that she hates
Ven one moment and admires him
the next. He moves her pity for
him to scorn, and then sets every
vibrant chord in her soul tingling
with strange emotions. Finally Ysn
gambles his entire province, his
whole future, ad even his life to
make this woman his.
Y. W. C. A.
Notes
Once more the beauty of the
"Shining Free" was reflected in the
upturned faces of more than one
hundred and fifty little children and
tired madonnas whose dreams of
Santa Claus were realised through
efforts of the Health Education
Committee and Woman's Auxiliary
of the Bexar Medical and Phar-
maceutical Association. Each child
received two pscksgei/-one con-
taining clothing or sloes, other
fruit, candy, etc. TM packages
were neatly labeled wAthe names
i gift*,
i abund-
ance of Christmas dainties, all were
then served a cup of hot cocoa,
sandwiches and cookies.
A program of Christmas carols
and the Christmas story, beauti-
fully told, completed the program.
The list of nsmes of all who so
loyally co-operated for the success
of the occasion is too lengthy for
publication but we are sure that
the joy they derived from doing
•ucb aba autlful deed is reward
enough within Itself. We were very
glad to have Miss Grace Channon,
General Secretary, Central Anno-
tation with us.
PERSONAL MENTION.
Mr. John Mayo, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Ephram Mayo of Hallettsville
was at home from Prairie View
visiting during the holidays.

BILL ROBINSON IS MAYOR,
ROBIN HOOD AND LEADING
PERSONALITY OF HARLEM
"Harlem Is Heaven" Star Tape Without Tap* and Given
Away More Suit* Than Any Other Actor
Buya, Sayg Noted Interviewer
By ALIS8A KEIR
(Reprinted from "The News," New York, by Permiaalon)
Bill Robinson. Up in Harlem,
they call him tha Mayor. He tap-
danced for one hour and five min-
utes at the last Dancing Theachers'
Convention without repeating z
single step.
Born in Richmond, Va., May 25,
1878, but doefti't look a day over
thirty. Has a boy's figure. There
Isn't a gray hair among his closely
cropped black curls. Talks exactly
the way he did down South and 1ias
kept his child-like spirit.
Weighs 160 pounds and stands
5 feet 8.
Takes four quarts of vanilla ice
cream (at intervals) between a
light breakfast and dinner. Pork,
olives, cauliflower and rhubarb are
the only things he won't eat; a pear
runs him erasy. Neither drinks nor
smakes.
Gives away more suits—from a
de luxe tailor—than any other man
in the show business buys. His oth-
er extravagance is too much tip-
ping. There's always a crowd from
his company eating with him be-
tween shows. Their money, he then
tells them, is counterfeit
Extremely neat Before each per-
formance he changes every gar-
ment he has on. Did this even in the
early days when laundry bills were
an item. Wears a ten-carat dia-
mond ring and a seven-carat mar-
quise diamond scarfpin. In his
pocket there's a small case stud-
ded with diamonds. It contains a
slip of paper stating he is one of
the Grand Street Boys. Tells yr
with pride "Cardinal Hayes" an,
myself are the club's only honor-
ary members."
His father worked In a machine
shop and hla mother was a choir
singer. They died and a grand-
mother brought him up.
An only brother, Percy (no sis-
ters), Is one of the best drummers
in the country. He's a Red Cap at
the Grand Central Terminal and
the business manager of the Red
Cap Bandi
Bill hasn't been given a lesson
in his life. HeM dance in saloons
and on the streets for the audience
during theater intermissions, until
he was eight. Then ran away and
got himself a Job hi a show. It
t jok him as far aa Frisco. Room
and board plus fifty cents a week
pocket money.
Never had much schooling but
can learn words and music to a
song in 16 minutes. Will buzz even
an opera tune through after hear-
ing it once.
Marty Forkins has been his man-
ager for 80 years. When they met
he was getting $75. Now earns
$3,000 exclusive of the large sums
he gets for teaching dance rou-
tines. Bill calls him the Boss. Nev-
er makes a move in hisb usiness or
personal Ufa without consulting
him. The minutest details of his
happenings are reported to "The
Boss" as they occur. Bill's loyalty
to the man who made him Is su-
perb. Says he'd rather leave his
wife than leave him, any day, "and
she sure knows it, too, ma'am."
Mrs. Robinson travels with him
everywhere. To his grief they have
no children. Crasy about them.
Courted her while she was a cash-
ier in a Chicago drug store. Says
it cost him a thousand dollars in
sodas winking at her. She's pretty,
light-colored and has much poise.
Never worked on the stage.
Last week he bought her a sable
coat It cost $4,750. He gives her
diamonds galore the lis* of hickory
nuts. She smilingly wears one at a
time.
They own one of the Rockefeller
•partn ents at 149th Street It'*
furnished in such taste that an in-
erior t ecorator would be proud of
the result One maid.
Doesn't wn a car but takes taxis
•very step. There isn't a driver
around the 60's to 14 th Street
who doesn't hail him by nsme.
Never wants to be alone. The
bigger tht crowd, the better he
likes It. His vitality is tremendous.
A swell athlete and runner. Ran
76 yards backwards against 100
yards forward with some college
boys the other day—and won.
Plays pool as well as a professional.
Gets no more than four hours
sleep per night. As he gradually
wake* up he thinks out new steps.
Jumps out of bed to try them.
Has never worn taps. His shoes,
made to order, have wooden half
soles and wooden heels. They are
as pliable as glove*. He calls them
"split clogs."
Tempermental only about noises
backstage while he's dancing. If
there's a sound nobody else could
detect, hellbe heard from in no
uncertain terms. Exceedingly effi-
cient and on the job himself, an
noyed when others don't taka their
work seriously.
"Copasetic," is his favorite ex
pressfon—made it up himself. It
means the superlative of 0. K.
That's just about what Bill him-
self is.

Gala Pajama Party
Event of Holiday
On the very eve of the new year,
the home of Miss Barbara Har-
shaw of 502 Iowa street was the
beautiful setting of a "Slumber."
At ten thirty o'clock beautiful
girls in equally beautiful pajamas
began to appear on the scene. Soft
lights, entrancing music, and fas-
cinating girls were eager to greet
Baby 1933, and they really ushered
It in with inspiring cogency.
Mrs. Sarah L. Stevens served the
guests very charmingly. A beauti-
ful gray necklace was won by Miss
Msrtha Irving. At four a. m. the
young men were admitted to break-
