: 17 Mins.; One. “Master and Man.” Act opens with talk on the war which is pertinent and to the point. Carries a good quota of laughs. Cantor in black face and Lee playing straight. After war talk, Lee sings “Carolina” and Cantor comes on for “Victrola” and “Snyder’s Grocery Store.” Cantor does some travesties on pictures that are laughable. Cantor also pulls a lot of “cissy” stuff which is unusual in blackface. Act ends with a brisk duet. Went so well at the Palace that Cantor had to make a speech. Good comedy act, and out of the beaten rut.
