General Stilwell Spanks With Chinese Autograph Story
General Stilwell, famed for his speaking and writing in Chinese, once signed a San Francisco Chinatown boy’s autograph in Chinese. The boy exclaimed that a five star general cannot write English. Eddie Cantor recalls an acrobatic duo on the Keith Orpheum circuit who faced a bored audience and a blunt agent remark about needing a new finish. Copyright 1950 Bennett Cerf.
