FRANK TINNEY Is
AT POLLS IN
TICKLE me-
''Musigiri Comedy" Headed by
the IrrspressibIe "Tosca,"
Booked to Entertain Folks
for Week at Popular Theater.


DRANK TINNEY. in Tickle
Me-" q musical comedy that
has amassed considerable pop
ularity in all the metropolitan cen.
ters. will reveal itself as an engas-
ing attraction at Polls Theater be-
ginning tonight.
Tinney finds universal audience
for the absorption Of his unique
brand Of fun-making. Ten years
ago. when Frank first reached
variety heights, he depended largely
upon conversation with drummers.
fiddlers. and the like. Later he
tried a hand at travesty. beginning
with his famous "Tosca," In which
he played every part.
Since then he has developed into
the theater's best bet In broad
humor, I'm which his assumed hoarse,
hesitant delivery has been fashioned
into his most reliable asset. In
Tickle Me-" Tinney's frequent es-
says at travesty are the peak Of
laugh-producers Of the show. Plays
matter little to Tinney. AS Josh
Whitcomb, Uncle Tom, or Ben Hur,
he would be equally at home.
He once observed: when I come
in, the plot stops and in this par
ticular case it is a happy fact, for
Frank not only ties the plot into
q helpless knot. but he also throws
all routine aside and plunges into
affairs without knowing what he
Is going to say next. And that Ii
exactly the situation that Tinney'sL
legion of admirers hope and look
for.
Extremely fortunate is Mr.. Tinney
In the fact that he has one Of the
best casts Of principals and choruses
to be seen here in a blue moon.
Not that this comedian is not just
as funny as ever in Tickle Me-"
but Mr.. Hammerstein has made
particular effort to support his star
with dependable players who may
be counted upon to maintain the
swift action SO essential to musical
comedy success. The cast includes
Vic Casmore. Lillian Ring, Grant
and Wing, Haun and Sedoni. Doris
Arden. Rowland Woodruff, Tom
O'Hare, Vincent Townsend. Jerome
Kirkland, Leo Chalzel, Gerard Gard
ner and others.
This piece. which is studded with
hits has contributed to popularity
such numbers as: "If A Wish Could
Make 1t &c." We've Got Some
thing" Then Love Began" Tickle

more forward purchasing, and
trade sentiment has strengthen
ed in consequence. While various
unsatisfactory phases are still
present, the obstacles to revival
are being steadily surmontet,
and improvement in the export
division, although gradual, is a
hopeful augury. Clearance sales,
in which reduced prices figure
largely, are stimulating overtime
counter distribution, but retailers
adhere to a cautious policy in
buying. In contrast with the
price trend in consuming chan
nels, the movement in primary
markets reflects a condition OF
increasing firmness, with slight
ly higher quotations named on
print cloths and certain other
products.
The renewed activity noted a
week ago in domestic packer
hides has been followed by furth-
er purchasing, with large re-
movals of stock from the mar
kets. A prominent sole leather
tanner has been the principal
operator, both West and East, ana
higher prices have resulted from .
this business. Rejecting this
tendency a published list EN-
bracing eleven quotations as

and the general situation is con-
siderably stronger, While tan
ners are still conservative buyers
of country hides, there are re-
ports of export takings, and sell

undergone upward revision. In
leather, there is a perceptlple
increase in trade with European
and other foreign interests
