BOSTON KEITH'S Oct. 27,     9

Kinograms:-Rather interesting but Prince of Wales subject is getting tiresome. Topics of the Day: Good.

The Levelos:-8 min. F.S. Man and woman in a novelty wire act. Made a good opener.

Clinton & Rooney:-16 min. in 1. Have quite a little comedy and some exceptional dancing by Miss Rooney. Went very good.

Fiske & Lloyd:-16 min. in 2 1/2 and 1 Spec. Neat singing and talking offering, boy and girl both have good voices. Went well.

Morey, Senna & Lee:-14 min. in 1. These boys have some good material, and after eliminating a number of suggestive lines act did very well.

Imhof, Conn, & Coreene:-36 min. f.s. Spec. Big laughing hit.

Regal & Moore:-17 min. in 1 Spec. These boys have a versatile offering with singing, dancing, and some very clever acrobatics. Went big.

Mabel McCane & Co.:28 min. F.S. Spec. This is a beautifully staged act with some very remarkable dancing by Miss Broderick and her partner. Miss McCane certainly puts her songs over, the whole being a very classy act. Closed to a good hand.

James Thornton:-18 min. in 1. Mr. Thornton got quite a nice reception and seemed to please.

Mme. Herrmann:-12 min. F.S. Spec.  This illusion act is well staged and held the audience fairly well.

CUTS:- Morey, Senna & Lee: Please elminiate reference to "Mary Garden", gag in referency to "buying wine", "read my mind" and "forgot I was married" gags.

Fiske & Lloyd:-Please eliminate any suggestion of snuffing coke from your act.

Mabel McCane & Co.:  Please modify "shimmy" movement in your act.

Cointon & Rooney:  Please have Miss Rooney wear fleshings in your act.
