Ce’Dora and another girl ride bicycles within a steel latched sphere, a stunt that has been done before, but with a man doing the daring part of the riding. That, however, is only the prelude to the thrill in the act which has Ce’Dora looping the interior on a motorcycle. Another act offering a similar exhibition, but the motor was operated by a man also. An announcer stood in the center while the girl whizzed by him from top to bottom. Seven stage hands hold braces to keep the sphere steady under the pressure of the motor. The motorcycling bit is sensational and few turns of that class are seen in vaudeville now. CeāDora kept the house in solidly. Ce’Dora at one time appeared in a turn called “The Golden Globe,” or something like that, which was similar to the present act.
