A.O. Duncan
A. O. Duncan has not changed his
ventriloquial specialty to any great extent.
The negro “dummy” is gone but
this can hardly be called a change.

Tilford
The act was nineteen minutes long on the full stage.
Tilford is a talented ventriloquist who smokes a cigar while performing. He sits his grotesque dummy on a table and uses a telephone. He does fast talk with his dummy while smoking and at one point travels into the audience. “Even under the spotlight there is no perceptible movement of the lips.”
