22 min. The high-class musicals offered by these musical comedy favorites scored a big applause hit with our audience, their program consists of popular numbers, finishing with the “My Hero” number which Miss Hunt created in “The Chocolate Soldier.” A piano-player did one number and got applause.

13 min. This is practically the same act that was done by Kramer & Morton under the same title, “The Two Black Dots,” a girl being partner of Kramer’s. The act consists of songs, a bit of comedy talking and some dancing. They got their material over good shape and were a good sized applause hit.
“The Italian and the Actor” – character comedy act; the Italian seems to get everything mixed to the great delight of the audience; little dancing, singing and principally talking; 20 min in one. This act went over great. Tremendous applause.
37 min. This is one of the best tabloid musical comedies vaudeville has had in years and it made just as big a hit here as it did two seasons ago. Andrew Tombes is still the principal comedian and he has a role that is filled with laughing material from start to finish. He is well supported by a company of four principals and a chorus of eight girls, and the piece is attractively staged. It was very well received, finishing to a big hand. Mr. Tombes scored an individual triumph.
