Description
verso labeled in typeset: Hitler Steps Out
Chancellor Adolf Hitler seems to be doing a little jitterbugging here at his reception March 4 in Berlin at which Mirian Verne (left) danced for him and received flowers and candy from the fuehrer. The Pittsburgh dancer chatted with Hitler for an hour and said, "I liked him immediately." Today Hitler's dress suit was exchanged for a brown uniform as he entered Bohemia to put dismembered Czecho-Slovakia under Nazi rule. Others shown in the picture are officials and German stage and screen figures.
