"Sweetheart of Mine," "I'll Say She Does," "Bubbles," and "Give a Little Credit to the Navy."
A film showing the boys on a battleship, being discharged and leaving for theatre. The boys enter in "gobs" and use "Madelon" . for their first number, followed by "Sweetheart of Mine."
The tenor then solos "I'll Say She Does" and uncovers a dandy voice and the ability to handle rag numbers. All sing a popular number which gets over through the excellent harmonizing.
The song should be replaced. A baritone solo "Bubbles" is next and the voice average remains high. "Give a Little Credit to the Navy" is the closing number and was the last, though they could have done more from the applause. These youngsters have appearance and can sing with the best. They don't need the uniforms and the tenor should go in for a little more
comedy. They are ready for an early spot on any line up.
