11 Mins.; Two (Special Set). The Six Navigators are an acrobatic turn that has grown familiar to vaudeville under another name, according to report. In the renaming of the act, the sextet has adopted a style of dressing, with a special setting, that takes it away from the fleshing-clad athletes who tumble in groups. This company is dressed as sailors on a ship scene. They do some fast acrobatics, with many good tricks from a springboard, the best of these being a double somersault off the board of a two high. The act closed the Fifth Avenue bill. It is dressed so differently from what the people have grown accustomed to or expect, that the act should be used in the centre of a small time bill, to get full value. It will do very well on the big time or the small big time, and would make a nice opening number for any big time program.
