The woman is a ballad singer and the man is a comedian of a kind. He does a parodies on pretty old songs. One feature is a sequel to the old reliable “Casey at the Bat.” The finish consists of the couple selecting different parts of the audience for an applause contest and when the fellow selected the gallery and sang a parody about wanting a white hope like John L. Sullivan back the gallery made a great deal more noise than they did when they saw a picture of President Taft a few moments before.
This can be a steady act for the small time.
