19 Mins.; One (Special Drop). Harry Kelly and Louis Wesley are presenting a comedy talking skit in “one,” entitled “Small Town Chatter.” Kelly is doing his usual “deacon,” while Wesley is the straight. There is also a dog. Wesley is the “city feller,” and Kelly, “town constable.” Constable suspects “city feller” and is on his trail. The talk is fast and choc-a-block with laughs. The act was down next to closing at the Royal and kept a mighty hard audience laughing from start to finish. Wesley is a talking straight and makes a capable feeder for his team mate. Kelly does his usual rube song and a bit of eccentric dancing that is a scream. The act is one that can be used to advantage on any bill to get a lot of laughs.
