Keith-Albee managers' report book, December 11, 1911-September 9, 1912

CLEVELAND - WEEK OF DEC. 18th.
GENE MULLER TRIO: World's Greatest Hoop Rollers - - An act that lasted seven minutes and was thouroughly satisfactory - Full stage. This act goes to PITTSBURGH
MR. TIM CRONIN: Just fair and that's all. 16 minutes - in one. NEW YORK
BARNES & CRAWFORD: Sketch entitled "The Fakir and the Lady" Open C.D.F.- close in one. Time 19 minutes. Rather clever but some of the cleverness was to rawa and we had to cut it out - especially the bedroom talk. INDIANAPOLIS.
THOS. P. HOIER & CO. :Sketch entitled "The Iceman" - Four people. C.D.F. in three 16 minutes. Just a fair sketch. It will never be a headliner. TRENTON.
SPINK & WELCH: Can be classed as fair and that's about all. Have a Baby Organ piano and which the man plays and the woman just about gets by. 16 minutes. ERIE. 
CHARLOTTE PARRY: Sketch entitled "Into the Light" As far as Clevelend is concerned, I doubt if this sketch can be compared with her former work. I believe the patrons like to see her make the quick changes. Dark stage with spotlight. 25 minutes. CINCINNATI.
BARRY & WOLFORD: A little talking and singing sketch in one, entitled "Snap Shots". Didn't create any disturbance from an applause standpoint. DETROIT.
DARE BROS: Acrobatic Marvels- Quite a good act of the kind, which consists mostly of lifting stunts. 12 minutes - full stage. OPEN NEXT WEEK
Note: The show as a whole cannot compare with that of last week. There is nothing really bad about it, but there is not one single feature that will draw any money. H.A. DANIELS.
