"Five Cents a Ride."
Duffy and Lorenze were "No. 2." The spot was apparently hard, but the act did nicely on its finish, the prop auto elopement helping the pair immensely. The young folks had on their springtime clothes, Miss Lorenze looking bewitchingly attractive in a summery outfit of pink. Duffy has dropped his "coupon saving song" for one that takes in the jitney ave as its funmaking foundation. It's entitled "Five Cents a Ride." There's little sense to the thing and musically it kills a few bars, but it's timely and that helps.
