Nice, Comfortable Theater

A FTER you see the current stage
L n show at the Lyric, which runs
to comedy and pleasing dancing and
tuneful music, you will agree that
here is nice, comfortable theater.
And in speaking of comfortable
will tell you that the Lyric has
its cooling plant in operation and
1t is now working splendidly.
To my way of thinking there are
at least three outstanding acts on
the bill. They are the Radio Rubes
with Rufe Davis, who mimics every
thing from a chicken to a train
Hap Hazard, with his different style
of putting over comedy while walk
ing wire, spinning a rope and
playing musical instrument, and
Harry Burns, dialect comedian, with
three in his company.
The Radio Rubes, with their barn
var music and old-faShioned tunes,
worked the audience into a demon
stration of approval when I was
present.
Hazard allows that ne is going to
keep on beer instead of the hard
stuff. He says, You don't get as
much mileage out of beer but you
can get home on your own power.
Burns works easily and puts over
his comedy in good style. The Ran
dali and Dewald Revue turns out to
be a pleasing dance revue.
Jack Goldie in black-face attempts
to sing like Al Jolson. The Saurs
Family opens the bill. I was late
arriving and missed this act. The
hot weather was to blame for my
lateneSs.
