PROVIDENCE   E. F. ALBEE   JANUARY 30, 1922
The show this week is very much liked indeed, although there are a couple of spots that mean very little.
CHARLES LOVENBERG

THELMA DE RONO - Young woman on a trapeze who does some ordinary tricks using up a bare five minutes of full stage. She bills herself Thelma De Rono & Company. It is rediculous to put company on the program whereas the said company is a big fat woman who holds a rope for one minute while the girl descends.
LOWE, FEELEY & STELLA - A young man and two young girls with rather an attractive act of singing and dancing. 15 minutes in one.
GEORGE YEOMAN - "The Editor of the Assassinated Press". A very good single man talking act done in an unusual way with a lot of excellet material which brings laughter galore. A very good act. 15 minutes in two.
QUIXY FOUR - Well known quartet which made a very big hit. 17 minutes in one.
HOWARD SMITH & MILDRED BARKER - A man and two women. An unusually good comedy sketch called "Good Medicine" with lots of excellent material very well presented. A sketch that will make good anywhere. 17 minutes full stage.
PRINCETON & WATSON - A man and woman in a talking act in which the man uses a lot of up-to-date slang, some of it rather new and got considerable laughter. However, the act as a whole is not quite up to expectation. Went fairly well. 13 minutes in one.
BESSIE CLAYTON & COMPANY - Most wonderful act from a vaudeville standpoint we have played in a long time. A terrific hit. 40 minutes full stage.
KOROLI BROS. - Hand balancing, perch and ladder balancing. Fairly good act. 5 minutes in one.
