5TH Ave #2 10/2/11 Paul Dickey & Co. Spec F.s. 23 Min "The Come Back" A good comedy sketch, fairly played by four boys and a girl, none of them extraordinary actors. In fact it is hard to realize where the money that is paid for this act goes unless to the promoter of it. While it gives satisfaction in laughs, it is doubtful if it would ever draw any money in a city, and is worth about half what it costs. If there is any "Come Back" about it it should be from the managers. Belle Blanche Olio 1 As clever as ever and does about the same act. Fills the spot satisfactorily. REED BROTHERS Drop 1 1/2 16 Min Ring Act A remarkably clever act and contains considerable comedy. Makes good with every one and one of the best closing acts we have had in some time. Pathe's Weekly. A remarkably good film this week with several interesting subjects, including the launch of a battle ship, firing the big gun at Sandy Hook, the Shriner's parade at Atlantic City Etc. The film was so good that it was put in the middle of the show after the first time, so that no one should miss it, and it held everyone's attention to the finish. Note. The show runs well and is a good show without any particular class or novelty to draw business in a large city. Manager. Robert E Irwin Manager
