REPORT OF MARYLAND THEATRE SHOW
Baltimore, Week Sept. 5, 1910
The Kennys - 7 min full stage. Comedy acrobats
Tumbling good, comedy bad. Makes only a fair opening act.
White's Dancing Bugs - 12 min. open in 2, close in 1
A good dancing act, but nothing to rave over. Can hold this spot all right, but over-paid at least fifty dollars
Cadets de Gascogne - 12 min. in 1 - Splendid singers, using good selections and going exceedingly well.
Claude & Fannie Usher - 29 min. full stage. Same old act and doing as well as ever. Plenty of laughs throughout and good story. Closed to big applause.
Soldoms' [Vormis?] - 14 min. full stage. Very beautiful and artistic. Each pose liberally applauded and finished good.
Ethel Green - 20 min. in 1 - A pretty girl with a splendid voice, lots of personality and great songs. She was easily the hit of the show, got her audience from the start, held them all through act, and closed with speech after many bows.

Henry Clive - 12 min. in 1 - Same material but got just as many laughs as ever and held an exceedingly hard spot fairly well.
Bounding Gordons - 10 min. full stage. A good fast acrobatic act that closes the show splendidly.
The Kinetograph - "A Boarding School Romance* - very good.
