Report on Columbus Show Week March 3. Howard Feigley (Treasurer)

Frank Hartley:
Light Fancy Arch set, 9 minutes in 3. Makes good opener, and finished fairly strong. (Cincinnati)

Wilbur Sweatman:
Musical, (Colored). 15 minutes in 1. Held this spot fine and received applause throughout the act. His work on the clarinet being exceptionally good. Finished very well. (Toledo)

Darrell & Conway:
Singing  and talking. Bare stage, close in special 1,20 min. This set is much better than when it was here before, and scored a big hit. (Dayton)

Don Fulano:
Educated horse. Special in 4,15 minutes. This is a very interesting act and was well received, working fast and with just enough comedy to make it go well. (Pittsburgh)

Pealson & Goldie:
Singing and whistling. Street in 1, 15 minutes. Fair act which succeeded in getting by alright, but finished rather weak. (Indianapolis)

Bert Leslie & Co:
In "Hogan, The Painter". Comedy sketch. 3 men, 1 woman. Fancy set in 3, 16 minutes. Very good act, with a capable company. Went big throughout. Advance hand and a decided personal hit for Mr. Leslie. (New York)

Chris Richards:
English comedian. Olio in 1, 10 minutes. Was a little slow in getting started but soon won them with his eccentric dancing, and closed very well. (Detroit)

Three Mori Brothers:
Japanese Risley artists. Palace in 4, 12 minutes. Makes a good closing act, with plenty of comedy and held the matinee audience, which is rather unusual for an act of this kind. (Indianapolis)

Pathe Weekly:
