Boston   Keith's   June 27, 1921
Pathe News: Good
Topics of the Day: Fair
Lewis & Henderson: 16 min in 1
These girls with singing and music did very well opening the show.
Buckridge & Casey: 9 min full stage spec.
A good flash and seemed to please although the young lady still insists on singing off key. Closed to a good hand.
Joe Bennet: 14 min in 1
Blackface comedian and clever eccentric dancer. Went over very good indeed.
Jack Conway:& CO. 19 min full stage spec.
this man does a clever bit of character work and is well supported in his comedy sketch. Got quite a few laughs and closed to a fair hand.
Princeton & Watson; 15 min in 1
Man and woman in a slang offering of talk. Went fairly well.
Santley & Sawyer: 30 min full stage spec.
A very beautiful singing and dancing revue, elaborately staged. Held interest and closed to a nice hand.
Lydell & Macey: 17 min in 1
This well known act seems to be slipping and went over only fair.
Alero: 6 min in 1-1/2 spec.
Good hand balancer, worked fast and did fairly well closing.
CUTS: Lydell & Macey: Please eliminate the line in reference to "Deaf and Dumb girl saying, O Daddy"
