HOWELL and JAMES.

Location:
Theater:
Date:
16 Mins. Two men, both black face, one tall, the other short, in comedy talk and songs. Shorter man, who does comedy, offers funny wench impersonation, changing to that character from male garb, while straight sings Irish ballad, the latter delivering sis stuff likably. Double for closing Comedian has acid proof negro dialect, gets laughs without forcing matters, and straight owns excellent tenor voice. Entertaining double with average line of material, which they better by competent handling.
