Shelton in an extreme tramp make up runs across stage disappearing to opposite entrance evidently to convey the impression that the cops are after him. He returns to go into a monolog in which he maintains a perfect average as regards released material. His act could be billed “The Consensus” for he doesn’t skip any of the standard wows. They were hep to him Here. He precedes each gag with the remark “Oh Boy,” and it gets extremely tiresome. Shelton has a fair delivery and if equipped with fresh material might qualify for the smaller houses.
