SHOWS
MUST PLEASE
HARD-BOIED

Those Mutual Burlesque cen.
sors are a hard-boiled lot. OF
course they must be or they could
not held their jobs. Fancy half
a dozen alert, experienced men
laboring for many weeks to assist
the individual producers in the
formation of their shows. and then
lying in wait for the opening of
the season to jump on those very
shows, like a bull. glaring at a red
rag! And that's just what they do.
Let EN- get nicely started, then
we will take a look" And SO they
go on from show to show, looking
for something to rip out, or some
body to fire out. IL a comedy
scene fails to make the audience
laugh, OUT. If song or dance
does not go over. OUT; performer
falls down. OUT. If a musical
number flops, "chuck it," If
there's spot that drags, tighten it.
Those censorship babies don't
know what the word "alibi" means.
