Say Jimmy. I was up to de Knick-
,-bocker last night an took in at
George Conan show dat dey raves 50
C,,b about. De main Guy, Vic
sroo~e what plays Kid Burns in de
rice is all to de lilies. He's
ssved-off nut like nlesel, wild jolly
icol-in' mug. an he never gets hot
,,rSa- his cellulOid. De bunch he has
- helm him IS all to de merry, an
non dev eils de Kid against de ropes
5ev oon't do d ting to him. Say, just
t;nk Of couple of dozen or more
nipces of calico pullin you dis way
and dat way maxim goo goo eyes at
Won an Wishin de play was Sappho,
wild one of dem in de lead.
Gee. but de kid could have had de
nick of de skirt mill If he wanted to,
bur he got de straight tip from de
lamps Of little bundle of she dat
be was de candy. Say, dat little gal
delivers de innocent goods, all right.
Just as soon as dis little peach
world git into hailing distance of
Burns. she'd trow some baby talk into
De Kid an he'd STAND dere wild wheels
buzzin in his nut an his blood pump
EOrkin overtime.
Wat broke De Kid all up was when
she raps to him an says, Saw, Mr..
RI-ns, do youse know dat l dream
ID of youse last night" Gee, wen
she let's dat spiel slide nff 40 ut de
Kid never moves to field de ball, an
ven her mudder tries to play empire,
she cuts third base by mile an
makes a homer. DE Kid wakes up
Den an gives de mudder de frozen
laee and says de run counts on his
SIDE
Did l tell youse dat de Kids girls
name is jerry Well, dats it. In So
ciety de label reads Geraldine. Say.
de- Kid may not be dere wfd his Wnh-
tter. but what he misses in educa-
ton he makes good In nerve. He
only knows de gal about fifteen min
utes wen he says to her, Say, youse
call me Kid and III call youse Jer-
-y"Oh. mamma, but de Kid certainly
ought to take somethin' for his
nerve
Watts de play all about, did yeuse
say? Well. now if Youse is on an
leaves de screens down, youse kin
come in de side door an git in de
game an IL stake yOuSe.

J. comes TO pickin' out a winner at
d. track. an he makes all de guys
On de high stools change dere odds
evry time he looks dere way. He's
