9 min. Has a new opening for his act using a banjo and harmonica duet number and also does a song with guitar accompaniment. The remainder of his act is the same as he has been using. Went very well, finishing to a good hand. (NOTE – Mr. Wood is not getting in the Tanguay class. Despite the fact that he went on at 2.35 with the house entirely in, he was so displeased at his position that he only did eight minutes at the matinee and gave as an excuse that he was of no value to a bill unless he was on fourth or sixth. I explained to him that a certain young lady who used to be in vaudeville had all the temperament required for the business and he thought he might be able to do better tonight.)
