Singing and comic dialogue.
Wellington Cross has the right idea for a single. Opening with a bit of patter, Cross took up the running where Gibson and Connelli left off and got 'em from the drop of the flag. A Prohibition song and a travestied Gungha Din bit both brought big laughing returns, and a burlesque mind-reading bit at the finish, in which Billy Gibson helped out by doing straight, was a young riot.
