thrown' a moving picture of the Broadway parade, shortly after Armistice Day, 10 years ago. The drop is lifted, and the stagehand plays "I'm Sorry, Sally."
Ray Covert, who leads the vocal accompaniment of the above number, sings "Sonny Boy," Al Jolson's recent success.
Alex and Sam Rothov, in uniform with Oriental variations to fit their work, give an Oriental dance, burlesqued to the highest degree. The two boys have a very funny routine which goes over big.
Gloria Lee, as a little Belgian miss, does a fast and furious routine of high-kicking and fancy steps that is very pleasing.
The boys in the orchestra sing "Memories of France," led by Ray Covert, which number introduces our Colony Girl, —
Mildred Roselle, who lisps very sweetly, sings the new song, "What You Gonna Do-Do Now?"
Rothov and Geersch next offer a comedy loutine of burlesque esthetic dancing, -which is as funny, if possible, as the one put over by the Rothov boys.
Nat Busby, who this week is the colored chef for the outfit, offei'S the comedy throughout the sketch, does a very funny and difficult comedy dance, dancing on his hands as well as feet.
"There's a Rainbow Around My Shoulder" is the finale number played by the orchestra, and closes a very appropriate show in honor of Armistice week.
lovers of the dance, both sublime and ridiculous, it has much appeal, and as a whole went over with a bang.
Brooklyn Fox
Week Ending November 24
Jeanne Mignolet and Phil Steele, soloists, assisted by the Fox Choral Ensemble, appear in a full-stage set of Southern atmosphere, before a panorama of ocean waves, singing "Still as the Night."
The Leonidoff Girls, 18 in number, give a handdance of precision, called "Danse Chaise." These girls are coming along fine and will soon be on par with the Roxyettes of New York.
The Fox Grand Orchestra offers at this point a symphonic jazz number called "Diga, Diga, Do," and the comical gyrations of the symphonic leader, Charles Previn, are worth the price of admission. Previn, by the way, leads the orchestra in many beautiful overtures, and is no mean conductor.
Syncopation Festival is a whirl of mirth and motion, in conjunction with the feature picture, "Dry Martini."
Joe and Jules Walton are the first programmed in this review in a dance called "Collegiate." which is very much exaggerated but gets plenty of laughs. The Three Adams Sisters follow this, and these vivacious dancing debutantes offer a very pleasing fancy fan dance, beautifully costumed.
Martha Vaughn, entrancing hit of the Greenwich Village Follies, sings "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling." Steve Savage, the pasty-faced dandy dancing dunce, puts over his regular routine of foolish dancing, which wins instant applause at this house, as it has in other presentation houses.
Two Black Dots is another dancing team, putting forth their best efforts in individual dancing, and team dancing, which is also very entertaining.
Two more dancing numbers are introduced at this point, but not programmed in sequence, one of them a three-girl act, doing some very good equilibristic and acrobatic dancing, exceptional for girls, and the other a burlesque Spanish dance by two men, one dressed with a red wig and comedy getup, black cotton tights, etc., and both these acts were vei-y good.
The Leonidoff Girls in their "Cocktail Capers" do another precision dance, and the finale of this show was brought about by the entire ensemble, under an iridescent hanging lamp which threw reflections all about the theatre.
The show is very top-heavy with dancing, but for

Alexandria & Olsen were given prominent places on the stage program at the Pantages and their act lived up to the position allotted it. The act, "What's It All About ?", consists of vix'tually everything in the line of clowning and burlesque that can produce a laugh, the entire number being of dialogue.
Richard Vintour & Company, offer, "Les Beaux Arts," which starts off with some artist's poses and finishes with some clever dancing, the musical score accompanying the act being good.
Jess Libonati is billed as the world's greatest xylophone player, but, regardless of whether or not he is, he managed to find it difficult to get off the stage without giving at least two encores at each performance.
Neal Abel, comedian, offered a variation of jokes, climaxed by a character song.
Elsie & Paulsen were seen in a whirlwind of apache dances, which went over well with the audiences.
The Pantages orchestra, directed by Louis Charninsky, played popular selections as the overture.
Minneapolis Minnesota
Week Ending November 9
"Harem-Searem" is the name of the bill this week at the Minnesota. The Foster Girls provide the Harem, and Al Mitchell and The Serenaders together with a number of excellent entertainers, put a finishing touch to the entertainment. It is a ripping good bill and somewhat different in the manner of presentation than the usual run.
The show opens, showing two baggy trousered Oriental soldiers on' patrol duty before a Turkish fort. They flee before the attacking enemy who happen to be the Foster Girls. The chorus does a drill number, sans music. With that over, they proceed to take the fort by scampering over the high walls. Raising the flag of victory, they open the gates, revealing —
The Serenaders firmly entrenched in' their flowing robes and fez awaiting the arrival of Al Mitchell, who, for the time being is an Englishman, who arrives via a shoulder chair.
Harry Savoy, who thereafter, takes up most of the attention, also comes on' from the opposite direction in a contraption of a nondescript condition. He and Al exchange quips and then Al takes the Serenaders through a jazzified version of "The Road to Mandalay."
"The Wandering Minstrels" are up next. How they happen to be called "minstrels," is one of the riddles which Harry Savoy did not solve. The two are acrobatic clowns of unusual ability. They tie and untie themselves until one wonders which is head and which is foot.
Hazel Romane is Harry Savoy's next foil. The two engage in' some nonsensical chatter for some time. Finally Savoy winds up with an imitation of Al Jolson singing "Sonny Boy."
The Foster Girls do an Oriental scarf dance for their second unmber.
Harry Savoy comes on again after a brief respite and starts up his nonsense. Towards the end he manages to get off on a tangent about France and the world war which provides an' excuse for a beautiful finale.
The stage is darkened and a drop on the upper half of the stage raises, showing what is apparently the cavalry riding pell-mell over the battle fields of France while the orchestra closes with the "Marseillaise."
