[[underline]]HARRY BURGOYNE[[end underline]], Vocalist:- 14 min. in 1. 3 shows. On at 5:26. Well known on the Circuit. Sings London comedy and pathetic songs. Makes very good impression and sings with a good deal of sincerity and artistic merit. Can hold very good spot on the bill.

[[underline]]VIOLA & ENGEL[[end underline]] 10 min. F. S. 3 shows. On at 5:40. Two men, one working straight and the other eccentric comedy on the lines of Rice and Prevost act,mainly using tables, chairs and a mat and including some barrel jumping. Created no particular impression, but got fair hand at the finish.

[[underline]]GENERAL REMARKS[[end underline]]: The show runs very smoothly and gives entire satisfaction.
