Mason and Bart

Type:
Two regular horizontal bars and a high bar for casting are used. The “straight man,” if he might be called so, although he wears an unnecessary “makeup,” does some capital acrobatic work.
His doubles off the bar from a giant swing are as well done as most do the single. A long leap from a giant swing over the center to a catch on the high bar makes a corking finish.
The comedy should be improved, or better still dispensed with altogether.
