"Just as they are"
Several songs, lyrics by Mr. Lean,
one or two by Collin Davis, and all the
music by Miss Holbrook. won immediate
favor. The hits were "Me for Michigan"
(topical), and "The Fan." In the latter
Mr. Lean is at his best. The "chatter**
song brought much applause. It is the
same they originally introduced in "The
Soul Kiss" season before last.
They
have surrounded themselves with a sketch
that bears symptoms of a plot. It is named
"Just as They Are." This is an error.
Just as they are would show them in very
delightful moments, and those momenta are
brought to view after the sketch portion
is dispensed with in the early part.
