The act was twelve minutes long. Watson and Santos sing and dance. Santos wear a white satin gown and Watson wears evening clothes. Watson does a coon song in a pleasing baritone and Santos accompanies him with “a clear, bell-like high note.” She hums one number “with flute-like purity”.
When Santos starts to hum, "the applause comes like an avalanche."
Santos is a pleasing looking brunette, but she is no dancer. "Because Mr. Watson and Miss Santos are really refined and classy should be no bar to their booking on the big time-but you can't tell nowadays."
