please all of the audience most OF the
time.
The famous dialogue Of Mcintyre and
Heath is the core around which is built
a brilliant musical and dancing enter
tainment.
Tampa Bay hotel an aviation camp, a
Mississippi leyee, a southern villa and a
New Orleans mansion furnish some of
the stage settings.
The music includes such songs as "Glve
/ Me the South" my Isle OF Golden
Dreams" 'Rock-a Bye Baby" "Suwanee
Glide and Pretty Baby"
Throughout the season James Mcintyre
and Thomas K. Heath have labored be-
fore audiences under black coats of paint,
driving away the blues OF other people
and apparently getting a lot Of enjoy
ment themselves.
They have not worn out the welcome on
the theatrical door-mat Of indianapolis.
B. r. KEITH's.
The current bill at Keith's does not
seem to hang together in the right sort
of way 10 make a we'll balanced bill.
There are several names now at Keiths
which MUST be considered. but the entire
bill fails TO land the powerful punch that
last weeks bin delivered.
Miss Ruth Roye, the heacliner on this
weeks bill, Is an artist n putting over
ragtme song, and her material Is
distinctive and her way original.
She Is immense while singing a song
OF the troubles OF a chorus girl of the
Winter Garden who wonders where the
guys have gone to spend the jack.
The night we saw the show she rightly
cleaned up all the applause and had 10
make curtain talk.
Herbert Clifton, on properly balanced
vaudeville bill, would shine like a dia-
mond In the dark, but he is not placed
right on this bill.
Clifton impersonates women or stiu
better he offers a trsvesty on en-.
He is bowling Nike a wild woman one
minute and then the next he IS doing
grand opera like real prima donna.
It might be that the writer is out OF
step with the world just at THIS min
ute, but we fail 10 see how the noisy
sketch, THE End Of the World" is IA
nous, as Sam Liebert makes no attempt
ut real characterization.
Mabel Burke sings old fashioned songs
and Sidney Forbes MARBLES the new ones
Tor applause honors. Sac
Kramer and Boyle sail along OF
fairly lively pace; Lou and Jean Archer
sing and dance; John Regny and the
Lorraine Sisters have a flashy dance Of
fering, and Arthur Ruston opens the bill
in "a Night In the Jungle"
The acts are not so bad far from It.
but the fellow who hitched them together
Is the one 10 blame.
Maybe last weeks perfectly balanced
bill spoiled us a bit

LYRIC.
It's bear.
Alice Teddy is a bear. and she has
the leading role IN an act staged this
week at the Lyric theater.
Alice is bear that skates, dances
and wrestles.
We wouldn't like to have the Job of
training real live bear, but the re-
suit, when accomplished, is often very
satisfactory.
The bear in question has some remark
able qualities for an animal, and goes
through her part Of the performance
with very few brides Of candy and sugar
water.
carefully trained animal is Alice
Teddy.
