Mixed couple in white tights and green silk trunks. When the front drop is raised they are already seated on a double trapeze and immediately go into action. The young woman has lots of style and is full of “pep.” He hangs head down, supporting her for teeth spin. Up to this point routine is conventional, but then they go into a special apparatus which is on the same principle as Delmore and Lee’s break-away ladder, only it is in the form of circles six feet in diameter They stand inside the circles and balance until time to whirl around for the finish. It is an effective and novel closing turn.
