Ruby Raymond Trio.
In 1. Time 13. 1 woman, 2 men. A high class dancing act, including buck, eccentric and acrobatic steps. The eccentric dancer is very fine.
Lylian Tyce
In 1. Time 10. Sings Irish songs. After a very poor start she gets going well and ends with the audience with her applauding vigorously.
George Beban & Co.
F.S. special interior. Time 23. 3 women, 4 men. “The Sign of the Rose.” Here is a truly excellent sketch for vaudeville of a kind seldom seen. The entire cast is capable, and the work of Mr. Beban as an Italian is highly effective and his pathos gripped the audience in a way seldom seen in vaudeville or legitimate houses. Cleveland thoroughly agrees with all the fine things that have been said about Mr. Beban in this sketch.
Hilda Hawthorne
Time 14. In 1. Her singing voice is very good. Her ventriloquial [sic] work is disappointing both in technique of execution and in entertaining qualities. Her “voice throwing” is indistinct, and her comedy is weak. A good line of brick jokes would improve the act greatly.
William Ferry
F.S. special effective set. Time 10. Ferry is a clever contortionist who impersonates a frog. He gets a deal of humor out of his work and all around his offering is genuine entertainment. Highly effective in every detail.
Verona Verdi & Brother
Time 10. In 1. Miss Verdi is a remarkable fine violinist who scored a genuine hit. Her little brother plays the ‘cello well and makes a capital accompanist for his sister. An act of unusual merit and refinement which can be feared in advance advertising without stinting.
Sam Chip and Mary Marble
Assisted by John M. Dunne in a sketch called, “In Old Eden.” Time 21. Special Dutch interior act in F.S. Open with a pretty tulip field drop in one for an instant at the start. Chip and Marble make a good song and dance team. Beyond that there proved a failure here. Their sketch is uninteresting and the jokes hardly got a laugh. We are totally at a loss to know why this act should be headlined and we do not think it earns anything like the money it gets.
Charles De Haven and Jack Sidney
In 1. Time 10. The young men have a gingery dancing act which scores well.
Michael Fitzgerald and His Eight Juggling Girls
F.S. open. Time 12. Club juggling. One of the prettiest and most skillful acts seen here this season. The work in groups of twos and threes and the finale with all the girls juggling in a complicated series is truly marvelous and won immense applause.
Henri French
F.S. interior. Mimic, magician, juggler and impersonations. Time 15. Advance applause. Clever act but not a good one to close with. Doing so much he should treat himself to the luxury of an assistant. He takes up too much time handling material getting ready for his various stunts.
