Jack Coogan was formerly with John Dillon, the team being known as the Dillon Brothers, The Clark Sisters were last with Billy Farnum.
They open with "Navaho Rag," in which all three are neatly dressed. They continue with a bit of comedy, half pantomime, in which Jack buys his girl some wine, the other sister playing the waitress. The wine affects her, and she quickly accumulates a quick "bun." She gives away her shoes, allowing her the chance to do some clever tumbling while making her exit. Coogan followed with a fine eccentric dance and then the three perform a straight song. They came back with a very good encore number, Coogan doing something new as a "nance" railroad conductor.
The girl's work as a souse is excellent. Coogan's work is funny and clever. The girls add their full share. The act is sure to make good.
