foOtlights. said lot when she told
her audience at the Orpheum sun
day afternoon at the opening per-
Torrance of the new program, that
after a mother spends p years in
making a man out of her son, along
comes a little vamp and makes a
jackass out of him in 20 minutes.
And Frances says a lot of other
things that might se termed logic.
despite the fact that they sound
foolish. Frances. however, was a
big hit before the vaudeville hungry
crowd before whom she has ap-
peared numerous times while trav-
Ting the old circuit from one end
to the other. and she will continue
four day engagement here.
But Frances doesn't top the bill
at the Grpheum. She merely shares
honors with every other act on the
program. Because Manager Billy
Gray was presented with an Al
progsam by the booking concerns,
and four of the treats might well
headline any vaudeville card. And
