The tricks
of the felines, put through their antics
by Alice Techow, caused much wonderment
for the patient training plainly
evident.
The monkeys caused no end of amusement.
The trainer makes an effort to
stop their by-play, which is a mistake.
The audience enjoys it more than they
do the tricks and the simians should be
allowed to go the limit. Wormwood settles
all debate about a monkey riding a
two-wheel bike. He has three that
mount, dismount and guide wheels as
well as any person could.
They opened the show with their standard clown antics.
Several
new tricks brought applause. The
animals are particularly well groomed.
The trainer and his woman assistant look
extremely well in their uniforms, and the
act could pass on looks alone.
