The show opened with Callahan and Keke, a wire act away from others. The silken hangings help generally and cover up the supports, the tight wire alone being visible. The man is reported to have come from a circus. Anyhow, he has used his head in arranging the routine. His feats of jumping on the wire are unusual and accomplished without stalling. He barked his shin Monday night, though not in sight of the audience, a rent in one stocking showing a skinned surface that probably pained.
