"Those Five Girls" are billed just
that way. What difference does it
make what their names are" so one
would know them anyway. but the
way the title sounds torbodes some
thing a little better than the ordin-
AIRY. odd. but in this case the for
hOding will materialize just as hoped
fol-, and the girls are expected to
come through in proper manner.
The management has the word OF
the booking agent that this act which
is to be the hcadIiner today. Friday
and Saturday. is 3 clean-cut, lively,
peppery act with something doing
every moment. They sing, they talk,
They play violins.
The calibre Of the bill is to be up
held by Jim DoughertN, who is
scheduled to contribute a. little more
than his bit in the line of enterta in
ment. \Jim is a singer. The HaNel
ocks. novelty com needy acrobats con-
c1ude the bill in a manner fitting to
