Miss Shaw had a couple of new songs. She opened with "Rum Tum Tiddle." She got very little from the number. Her second, and best, is a Dutch character song in which she pushes a baby carriage. This was the only number in which she used eccentric makeup. Her older numbers, "I Gotta Da Rock" and "Dat Yiddisher Dance," did well.
Miss Shaw is hardly strong enough to top bills in the Williams' houses. Just why the comedienne was billed over Walter C. Kelly and Joe Howard and Mabel McCane was a puzzler going into the theatre, and coming out. In straight attire and without any dialect, Miss Shaw s unable to follow the voice of Mabel McCane's. Her "Yiddish" baseball song is useless.
