thur Mayer, Jim Collins, Ed. Griffin,
Mark Thompson, Ed. Griffon, Charles
Favalia and Mike Puglia. Eta Joerns'
with real voice and some stunning cos
tunes, carries the feminine lead, but
Barry Melton and Dainty Dolly prove
capable assistants in the vocal efforts.
The action concerns the efforts of Tim
Reilly, retired contractor, to back a
grand opera troupe, and the comedy Is
fast and furious.
A touch Of vaudeville Is injected be-
tween the first and second acts by the
three Bullowa girls N original feats on
the slack wire, and the Liberty -Four, a
male quartet, which renders popular
numbers in a manner that gives them
