Taking what is perhaps the oldest
theme known to sketchdom, the Cranes
have turned out a splendid laughing playlet,
full of catchy incidents, bright dialog
and amusing situations.
"Pixley's Prodigal Parent." Mr. Crane is
the young painter, Pixley, living quietly
in the suburbs with his bride of a few
months (Miss Condon), when news comes
that Mrs. Pixley's parents, Mr. and Mrs.
James Drake (Mr. Frohof and Mrs. Crane)
have gone into the divorce courts, all
through Mrs. Drake's suspicions of a certain Pearl Moore.
