A company of four (woman and three men) in a sketch. If handled better it would secure something in the better small-time houses. The cast lacks the ability to handle the dialog, with the outcome proving fatal to the piece. Opening before a special sidewalk drop in "one" they later go into a special interior in "three," the theme revolving about the failure of a young man to secure funds to aid his sick mother. A prize-fight is proposed, and supposed to be shown as a dream, but just what it was is probably left to the imagination of the auditors. The piece is crudely arranged. Much attention is necessary before it can continue around the smaller circuits.
