Then Montgomery and Perry, and what a
riot right from the start ! The final burlesque
bit doubled up the house with laughter. They had
just finished with a burlesque of the Kosloff
dance, and the "Patria" picture was on for
perhaps a minute, when someone in the audience
laughed in recollection of foolery in the
Montgomery-Perry act with that the entire
house went wild. For the next four minutes
there was steady applause for the act, but
the picture continued to flash and the team
did not get another opportunity to appear.
But the honor Is one they can carry in their
memory for a long time.
