Ivan Bankoff and Co. arrived with the new act, "Tho Dancing Master," showing that No. 2 is a hit spot if the offering is there. Bankoff as a clever dancer is one of the best in his line, but he'd be lost without his now girl assisting dancer, who is to be credited with being as good in her own line as Bankoff is in his. This unprogramed girl assumed wonderfully graceful postures at times and she swayed like a lily gently brushed by the tide. Several times she brought spontaneous applause by her work, especially the feat' of attaining a balance on one too and also in the remarkable back kicks. Both she and the accompanying pianist deserve program mention. It's unfair that they do not receive it.
