Boston   Keith's   May 30, 1921
Pathe News: Good
Topics of the Day: Quite a few good laughs
LeRue & Dupre: 11 min full stage
Man and woman doing sand pictures. Quiet opener
Dave Roth: 11 min in 1 spec.
Piano, singing and dancing. Went over very well.
William Gaxton & Co. 23 min full stage
His same sketch "The Junior Partner" Went over finely and closed to a big hand.
Claudius & Scarlet: 15 min in 1 spec.
The "Old Songs" put this act over to a fine hand.
Harry Watson Jr. 18 min in 1 and 2
Assisted by two girls and two men, Mr Watson put over a decided comedy hit.
Lynn & Howland: 18 min in 1 spec.
Following a sure fire hit these boys kept the ball rolling in fine style.
Cameron Sisters: 23 min fulls stage spec.
These girls dance exceptionally well and at the end of their act Billy Gaxton and his male partner do some great clowning that practically stopped the show.
Lillian Shaw: 24 min in 1 and 1-1/2
Even in this difficult spot Miss Shaw kept the comedy and laughs going right along and closed a decided hit.
Jordan Girls: 9 min in 1 and full stage spec.
These well known wire walkers closed the show exceptionally well.
CUTS: Lynn & Howland: Please eliminate the "kittens with sweaters" gag
Lillian Shaw: Please eliminate "One I got the other five I got yet" "Smells like a rose" "What's here is here"
