BOSTON    KEITH'S    Sept. 29,    9
Kinograms:-Good. Topics of the Day not as good as usual.
Three Rubes:-12 min. F.S. and 1. Good novel opening act and went well.
Powers & Wallace:-15 min. in 1. A good act but rather quiet for number two spot, closed to a fair hand.
Four Meyakos:-18 min. F.S. and 1. One of the best Jap acts we have played. Closed to a big hand.
Jack Inglis:-10 min. in 1. Works fast, got some good laughs, closed to a nice hand.
"The Magic Glasses":-17 min. F.S. Spec. A novel sketch in rhyme, well handled, held interest throughout, closed to a good hand.
Brennan & Rule:-15 min. in 1. These boys have a nice routine of songs, and went over very good.
Bert Baker & Co.:-24 min. F.S. This act made its accustomed hit here.
Charles Purcell:-17 min. in 1. This boy has personality and voice, but could improve his program considerably. Seemed to please, and closed to a fair hand.
Hubert Kinney & Corinne:-10 min. F.S. Spec. This dancing act held the audience fairly well closing.
CUTS:- Jack Inglis: Please eliminate the "Indian" song from your act, also the word "Hell".
