Students of Miss Eveline Burchill's School of Dancing will introduce "back-to-back" dancing to Dublin on the stage of the Carlton Cinema to-night before the screening of "Second Fiddle," in which this ballroom innovation is presented by Tyrone Power, Sonja Henie, Rudy Vallee and Edna May Oliver.

Miss Peggy Dell will accompany Miss Burchill's dancers and will also play some of the songs from the film.

Interviewed at the cinema yesterday, Miss Burchill said: "It will be interesting to see if 'back-to-back' dancing will supplant The Lambeth Walk in popular favour. These dances are more of a novelty than strictly ballroom dancing, but they succeed in their object of adding life and gaiety to formal dance occasions."
