Comic monologue.
Harry Breen was moved to the next-to-closing spot with his string of nonsense and clipped off an easy hit. For a man of Breen's literary ability the gag anent the turkey neck is passe. A few others in his budget of puns could be safely laid to rest also, but on the whole his is one of the sure-fire specialties of the day. It was a rather difficult spot to hold down, and Breen measured up to genuine big time standard with his returns. He changed places at night, with Miss Rowland, who was next-to-closing at the first matinee.
