The hula-hoop craze was short-lived in Hongkong, and a new fad has stepped in.Here's the full article from the August 1960 issue of Southern Screen.
The newcomer is the yo-yo. For those more advanced in years the yo-yo is not something new, but some twenty years ago, they had played with it.
Everywhere you walk on the streets in Hongkong, or visit a friend's house, you'll find someone with a yo-yo.
Betty Loh Tih, that pretty young star of Shaw Studio, is one who keeps up with the times. No sooner had the yo-yo arrived, when she bought one too.
Now she is quite an expert at it. If you want to see her playing with one, just see the Shaw film "When the Peach Blossoms Bloom".
