Aside from being sorry that Bessie Clayton sprained her ankle in Pittsburgh last week, there is little to be regretted because she canceled the week here, for Frisco fills her spot admirably. However, he isn't the sensational dancer the billing inclined patrons to expect He is clever in his own particular manner, works fast through his offering and gets a big hand. His business with, the cigar and hat is good and shows on originality that makes him worthy of his title. Miss McDermott's bit proves that she has been an apt student of jazz, her imitation of Frisco is worthy of comment, and the jazz band is all "there." It is clever showmanship in addition to his ability as an original dancer that has made Frisco an individual headliner.
