Man, woman and dog. Mr. Cownell was unable to appear in the afternoon performance because he was paid up in the hotel suffering from intoxication. They played the night show and I think the act under more favorable conditions, could be classed as a good one, fitting best in a number two or four spot. They held the audience pretty well at the finish but made no great impression expecting through two or three acrobatic tricks performed by the man and a little work by the dog. Their act last night ran 8 minutes in one.
