"Old Kentucky Home."
It looked for a few minutes as though the Fox bookers had grabbed off another team of Cherry Sisters from the manner in which this act opened. But as the team progressed it became noticeable there were slight mannerisms that suggested masculinity, although this was not wholly apparent to the lay audience. Therefore the two "girls" did not get any great applause return for their work.
They open with a double number that just passes. It is followed by the slighter of the two offering a solo dance, half toe work and half steps. A single number is sung by the husky member of the team, whose back is so muscled it would indicate that he had been an acrobat at some time. The closing number is "Old Kentucky Home," after which a double Spanish dance gives the boys an opportunity to come to the wig disclosure at the finish.
