Can Bojangles be Bested? The steps that Hokeah, a Kiowa Indian is going through here seem to have Bill Robinson "Bojangles of Harlem" a little puzzled, even though "Bojangles" is the king of tap. Hokeah performed Dec. 28 at a Dance International recital in New York, as did Bill. Hokeah was one of a number of Indians who presented tribal and ceremonial dances.
