"Beneath the Old Apple Tree" and "Molly Dear It's You I'm After."
Sophie Tucker, who is still paying a lot of attention to her clothes, apparently getting thinner and using a new way of dressing her hair, was next to closing and had no trouble at all in holding her own. She sang nine numbers. The newest was "Beneath the Old Apple Tree," which she worked up with a long-distance telephone conversation, similar to the "Hello, 'Frisco" idea. Good song. Miss Tucker boosted "Molly Dear It's You I'm After," letting down a curtain with the words of the chorus written thereon.
