The duo appeared next to last in the line up and walked off with the honors of the show. Rackett's style and delivery is perfected; he is distinguishable from the common eccentric comedian. Miss Douglass had some pretty costumes and an abundance of magnetism. Her opening song is new, but could be delivered differently. After this they continued with their usual routine and were thus able to captivate the audience.
Rackett's impersonation of Bob Fitzsimmons, with whom he shares a resemblance, is unnecessary. His ability alone will carry him; he should really be with a production.
