A boy and two girls, although only one of the latter is in evidence until the turn is part way through. That because of an, announced "illusion," not as cleverly worked out as should be. Starting as a duo they (boy and girl) offer "Wedding Bells," the girl's voice standing out nicely, topped with a sprightly dance. There follows a single by one of the girls, probably the second, but the arrangement is such that it is made to look as though the first girl made a quick change. The boy then announces his illusion, making reference to Kellar and other mystic notables. One of the girls goes behind a screen on one side of the stage and quickly appears from a similar screen on the other' side. While the house wondered where the trick came in, it was repeated but this time one girl appeared from the aisle while her sister stepped forth from the screen, frocked similarly. The regular routine then proceeded but had the "expose"
been done with the first "try" equal results, would have attained, to all intents. After a double number by the sisters the boy offered an excellent eccentric acrobatic dance routine. For a finish the sisters came on in colorful short dresses and. were joined by the boy in the exit stepping. The turn is richly dressed, the plush hangings aiding in the general class of the offering. It should easily work into big time form, if not already in that shape. Closing the show the trio held the house in without trouble.
