"Mammy o' Mine."
Following the Weekly, Keegan and O'Rourke had rather tough going until the girl did an abbreviated shimmie. An opening number is used with the man doing a mild souse, and the girl making an entrance through stepping out of a bill board. A song and soft shoe eccentric dance next by the man while the girl changes to a close clinging black evening gown to sing the sure fire "Mammy o' Mine," followed by their closing number, a sort of slow shimmie which acted like a sprint on the jaded palates of a six-day bike race audience. With the proper arrangement this couple should advance.
