17 min. in 1. 2 shows. On at 8:50. Alternatively caught on and lost his audience in the afternoon. Some of his jokes were old and others new, but the majority of them got only a mild simmer. The travestie [sic] were good for their kind, but the act did not seem to arouse much applause. Closed with a weak hand. As a single entertainer not in the same class as Willie Weston and cannot be depended upon to hold down a hard spot in a good show. In the evening when he was transferred to a less difficult spot, he won out much stronger.
