Act opens in the dark with a tenor voice singing "Memories." Light up reveals tramp with head through hole in drop in "one," drop being painted to indicate he is seated in a taxicab.
This "reception" at the opening and the routining of his work is as near an imitation of Milo's act as Yates's talents will permit. Pleasant singing voice, ordinary chatter, all rather crudely delivered.
