This is Mattie Rooney of the original Rooney family and her husband, Clayton Kennedy. They do an eccentric singing, dancing, and piano playing act that is really a very good turn. There is no question but that Mattie Rooney, outside from Pat, is the best member of the Rooney family so far as stage ability is concerned, and her husband has developed into quite a clever eccentric comedian. He is also a very good piano player, and between the two of them they present an act that could gardly [sic] fail to give satisfaction to any audience. 15 min, open full stage and close in one with about 3 minutes.
