The German comedians open in "one" with a song and dandy eccentric dance. The big part of the act is in front of a drop which represents a law office. The act closes in "one" after a couple of parodies and the singing of "We Are All Bound to Fall."
The act could be big. The only portion not bringing results was some of the talk. This could be remedied by making the straight man work in clean makeup; his German accent falls down in spots. The parodies are very new, or at least sound so. They have a fine, dandy finish. They are a good German talking and singing act.
