Boston, Mass..    B. F. Keith's    June 10th., '18
Richards
10 min., f.s., specl. This man does a routine of ballet dances in female costume. Keeps the audience guessing until he removes wig at finish. Opened well.
Harris & Morey
15 min. in 1. An excellent two man singing act. Went very good.
McMahon, Diamond & Chaplow.
14 min. in 2, spl. This act remains the same as on previous visits here. A very clever trio with lots of "pep". Went good.
Emma Stephens
15 min. in 1. This girl has a very pleasing voice and knows how to put a song over. Went good.
Bert Baker & Co.
23 min. f.s.. A good comedy sketch well handled. Went over big.
Frank Crumit
15 min. in 1. This boy always pleases here and went over finely.
Herman Timberg
30 min., f.s., spl. This act is interesting from the start, and certainly has a fine lot of material Timberg and all his company do fine work. Went good.
Kramer & Morton
15 min. in 1. This was a hard spot for these boys. They worked hard and got over pretty well.
The Four Ankers.
7 min., f.s., spl. Two men and two women with a nice stage setting, doing a neat, fast acrobatic act. Closed well.
CUTS- Kramer & Morton. Please eliminate the words "Bulshavika" "Go To Hell" also thumbing of nose from your act.
