Year: 1922

Jay Velie & Co:

25 min in full stage spec. Boy and four girls in a novel revue. Interesting and closed to a very good hand.

Adams & The Thompson Sisters

A Musical Threesome”. — Use Xylophone, saxophone, mandolin, banjo, etc. This act received good hands thro act and a big hand at finish. Open full stage and close in one. 12 min.

Bond Morse

“Tramp Comedian.” Talking, singing and dancing, principally talking. Received a few laughs through act — a fair hand at finish. 12 min. in one.

Gibson & Frice

“A word to the Wise” Man and woman. Many juggles all kinds of articles, with a good line of patter all through act; woman as cartoonist. Received plenty of laughs through act and a good hand at finish.  15 min. full.

Three Danoise Sisters

8 min. A pretty ring act by three girls. Routine of tricks well done and the girls make a nice appearance. Made a good closing number for this bill.

Wylie & Hartman

16 min. Moving this act down after the big dancing act helped the show considerably, giving a low comedy laughing number in here and they did very well at the night show. Act remains the same as last season.

Marion Morgan Dancers

26 min. Unquestionably a beautiful production and the dancing is up to the usual Morgan grade. To these who enjoy the classical offering this act is sure to appeal, but its appeal is only to the better class of patrons and with this clientele it scored. It is long and this dragged the show.

Jack Benny

14 min. Moved up from next to closing after the first show and put over a good sized laughing hit in this spot. His talk gets laughs and he makes good use of the little violin playing he does.

Charles King & Lila Rhodes

In “Toot Your Horn” This new vehicle gives this couple chance for a novel opening with talk after which they go into their songs and dances, having a man at the piano as assistant. Classy looking turn with smart talk and the songs and dances are nicely done. Act seems a little too long and cutting might give it the needed speed.
