"Face On the Barroom Floor."
A capacity house turned out to welcome the U. S. Jazz band which played here during the Third Liberty Loan drive, before the boys sailed overseas to give the fighting Yanks some jazzy pep, and by the time Fay appeared at the tag end of a show that ran two hours and a half, the crowd in front was pretty well laughed out. The task didn't seem to bother Frankie, however, and be made them laugh a lot more. Fay has a bunch of bright material, a corking travesty on the "Face On tbe Barroom Floor," and two or three nifty songs, and the combination got him across in good style.
