Boston Keith's March 7, 1921 Kinograms: Good, especially the inauguration pictures Topics of the Day: Fair. Margaret Taylor: 6 min in 1 and 3 This girl does some good wire walking and made a nice opener. Russell & Devitt: 7 min in 1 Two great acrobatic dancers. Went big. Sully & Houghton: 24 min in 1 and 2 A neat singing dancing and talking skit that went over very good closing to a big hand. Ruby Norton: 21 min in 1-1/2 spec. Miss Norton has a fine program of songs, beautifull gowns and is assisted by a clever pianist. She went over to a big hand. Bert Levy: 13 min in 3. Well known cartoonist held this spot nicely. Coogan & Casey: 15 min in 1 spec. A new combination that got plenty of good laughs and closed to a nice hand, William & Gordon Dooley: 43 min in 1 and full stage spec. A good flash with plenty of comedy by the Dooley boys. Went over in fine style. Equilli Bros: 5 min in 2 Very neat handbalancing, but played to a walk out. Cuts Kinograms: Cut out where girl takes off her coat and turns around in the posing pictures. Margaret Taylor: Please eliminate any suggestion of the shimmy and also reference to the leader. Sully & Houghton: Please eliminate the line "Sugar is not what I've got on my mind. also "look what they catch now". Would suggest if possible to substitute another expression for the word "rotten" used in your curtain speech. Wm. & Gordon Dooley: Please eliminate "ballet girls with her movements" from boys speech. Also business of remarking about queen's leg, the name Shubert and business of kicking Gordon in the back.
