Tim McCormick is assisted by a young girl at the piano, and an Irish terrier. Both Tim and the girl are clad in cowboy and cowgirl costume. He opens with a song and then introduces his dog and offers a recitation about her. After this he recites “Lasca,” a poem of the plains, and then tells of another dog who rescued a regiment in France. The latter is one of those patriotic appeal things that would be much better out of the act. Audiences are fed up with this sort of stuff. The turn as it stands is Just a fair small time offering.
