PHILADELPHIA   B. F. KEITH'S   MARCH 27th   2
Fables & Topics of the Day - Not quite up to the average we have been getting recently.
"TIP" - (11 mins.) A very intelligent fox terrier, put through a routine of clever stunts by Bob Leo. A good comedy finish. Made a very good opener, particularly appealing to children.
MARCELLE FALLET - (10 mins.) French violinist. Did very well with four numbers, the last number being especially well received.
MARION MURRAY & CO., Presenting a comedy sketch "Likes & Dislikes"-(22 mins.) A well written, well played comedy along new lines that furnished many laughs and closed well. An acquisition to vaudeville.
QUIXEY FOUR - (22 mins.) These boys made their usual hit, being compelled to do an extra number and a curtain speech. A standard act.
DONEGAN & ALLEN - (18 mins.) A clever young couple in songs and dances reminiscent of Laddie Cliff in his young days and Ann Pennington. Their dancing was amply rewarded by applause and at the finish the audience demanded a number of bows and a curtain speech. A hit. This act should be taken care of for next season without fail.
ELINORE & WILLIAMS - (20 mins.) Doing practically the same act as last season. Held the spot in excellent shape and closed big.
DOROTHY JARDON - (18 mins.) Operatic Prima Donna. Miss Jardon handed us a very pleasant surprise. She received warm advance applause and every number was well applauded. At the finish Miss Jardon was compelled to do an extra enchore. Will undoubtedly please the majority of our patrons very much.
D. D. J. - (19 mins.) This well-known act repeated here in a difficult spot and scored many laughs and a good finish.
WILSON AUBREY TRIO - (8 mins.) Open up with excellent work on the triple bars. Close with a comedy wrestling bout which was good for laughs. Good closing act.
PATHE NEWS - Very good series of pictures. In fact the Pathe seems to be growing better each week.
GENERAL REMARKS - This week's program is Real vaudeville, having plenty of music and comedy and is nicely balanced. Should do business.
CUTS
Donegan & Allen - Eliminate remark "He took his girl in a black and white taxi and she came out black and blue.
Kate Elinore - Thumbing nose.
D. D. H. - Eliminate remark "I know the names of several well known men who are only living with one wife. Also line about "Mother-in-law becoming the damdest nuisance in the world."
