BOSTON    KEITH'S    March 15,    20
Kinograms & Topics of the Day:-Unusually interesting and amusing this week.
Chong & Rosie Moey:-11 min. in 3 Spec. Chinese man and woman in a routine of American songs and dances. A novelty, makes a nice opener, closing to a good hand.
Griff:-14 min. in 1. Doing his regular bubble act with a few fake juggling stunts, got quite a few laughs and went well.
Stanley & Birnes:-11 min. in 1. Spec. Two boys in an eccentric dancing act opening with a little song. Their dancing is good and brought them a big hand.
Toto:-18 min. in 2-1/2 Spec., closing in olio. Toto is doing the same act he did last year "Toto in Kewpieland", and is very clever in his line of work. Held spot well.
"A Reckless Eve":-34 min. in 1 Spec. and F.S. Spec. This is a big girl act with pretty settings and lots of nice costumes. There is quite a little comedy in it and it went well for this style act in this house.
Henry Scott:-13 min. 2-1/2. Accompanied by Mr. [Wyntner?] Smith, Mr. Scott, the well known bass baritone has a well selected program, and received good applause for each of his numbers, taking two encores.
Dickinson & Deagon:-29 min. in 1. This well known team produced lots of laughs and held this spot well.
Josefson's Icelandic Glima Co.:-6 min. F.S. 4 men. This act is a distinct novelty demonstrating Icelandic wrestling, and their special self-defence. Makes a good, fast closing act.
CUT: "A Reckless Eve": Please eliminate "Night clerk in Hotel" gag.
