REPORT on BOSTON SHOW for WEEK of OCTOBER 4TH - 1915.
(R. G. Larsen.)
PATHE NEWS  16 minutes in one. Fairly interesting.
WHEELER TRIO  8 minutes f.s. Garden. Acrobatic comedians and balancers. Their risley work is much better than their comedy. Have some great tricks, and made a good opener.
LULU COATES and HER CRACKERJACKS  13 minutes in one. Olio Drop. A colored girl with three medium-sized colored boys in a routine of songs and dances. They are full of life and ginger, and put the dancing numbers over in good shape. Filled the spot.
ROGER IMHOFF, HUGH L. COHN and MARCELLE COREENE in "Surgeon Louder, U.S.A." 27 minutes f.s. Special Set. Scored the same big laughing hit as on their previous visit.
GRACE FISHER  16 minutes in one. O.P. Drapery. Singing comedienne with four changes of costume. The hit of her act is the singing by an old Irish lady planted in the orchestra, who sings "A LIttle Bit of Heaven" at the finish.
GERTRUDE HOFFMANN and CO in "SUMURUN" Second and last week. 58 minutes f.s. Special Sets. Going well.
KATE ELINORE and SAM WILLIAMS  17 minutes in one. Wood Drop. Doing about the same line of material, and holding this hard spot in good shape.
HARRY DeCOE  8 minutes f.s. CDF. His balancing stunts are as sensational and thrilling as ever. Excellent closer.
