Date:
[New Act] Violinist, 12 mins.; one. (Oct.28). Boy who looks 12 but probably around 18 enters playing semi-classical number on violin, the music preceding his appearance. Is dressed in ragged garb and absence of makeup gives his pale, wistful appearance which aids in sympathetic appeal. Plays another number straight then sings a ballad in a sweet baritone, closing with a song and a violin accompaniment at same time. More than made good opening second half of roof bill.
