Keith-Albee managers' report book, May 11, 1914-July 1, 1915

SUMMER VAUDEVILLE
B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE
CINCINNATI, OHIO

Week of May 24th, 1914.
J. F. Royal.

COMEDY REEL: 7 min.
THE SALVAGGIS: 8 min. P. S. Palace. Two girls with several changes of costumes in what they term as a dancing act. Outside of their costumes, cannot grant this act very much, even for summer vaudeville. It was just about passable.

COTTER & BOLDER: 16 min. in one, olio. Man and woman in piano and singing act. This is a great act for this kind of show, and went over very big, especially the character impersonations of the girl.

FRANK LYNCH & CO.: 22 min. F. S. Two men and a woman in a rural comedy sketch. While this was the feature, it was only a fair act, and having played the Empress a short time ago, did not create much enthusiasm. Received a fair closing.

VERA CRUZ  [indechipherable]RONS' RETURN IN MOTION PICTURES
9 min. Very interesting. Held attention throughout, and causing talk.

VAN DER KOORS: 10 min. F. S., 4 min. close in one. Burlesque magicians. This is a fair act of its kind and seemed to please. Got some good laughs, and put a little life into the show. Good closing.

DEVARRO & KEMATER: 7 min. F. S. This is a very fine act of its kind, and one of the best applause acts on the bill. Closed strong.

LOCAL MOTION PICTURES: Went very big.

CUTS:
Van Der Koors: Business of milking cow.
