Singing and dialog.
"The Subway in Ireland."
The act opens with the father singing an Irish song. When the girl arrives there is some talk, followed by her singing an Irish ballad. Two Italians begin digging operations for a subway. The Irish cannot bear the nearness of the Italians and a row occurs. Finally one of the Italians wins the girl and all is happy. The two Italians try to put over some of the usual type of comedy but do it very badly. The turn is destined for the smallest small time.
