The girls fully clothed in green dance and pleaaie by using novel formations in -which the Individual girls are made prom- inent. The uniqueness of their num- bers obtains throughout the show. An m.c. tak^a charge, holding .most of the' way, and' Introduces Mildred Benson, an athletic dancer: }n bare feet, who ends by cleaning up the stage. Miss .Stephanie, di-essed as a clgaret girl, picks cigarets, many 6i them Hghtod, from the air.. Announced as Tom, Dick and. HarjT. three men, apparently the Rio Brothers, 'dance with much- comedy iough stuff and go over big. Another dance by the girls follows with tlie same novelty and fresh- ness. Four men. and a girl do a pointless sketch in 'one.' Miss Ben- sort returns for imitations of Joe Pen her, Mae West and Joan Craw- ford, She h rdly convinces, but is liked. A jjlrl sings with the girls parad- ing past scantily clad in red feath- ers, and a man who has success- fully appeared before wins, with some fast dancing. Back to full again the girls and the. singer break Into a tap. Something has evidently been dropped as the weU draped set has a .ramp in back; which is not used. A man puts on a. putty nose, and announces an imitation of Dur rante. Hte is challenged by three others from the audience, RmH.arly achnozzed,. and the four burlesque the 'Carloca,' Hitler, and a bandit scene. On imitates a. rhan taking a bath and the four dance eccentric- ally and are miich liked, Back to one, Miss Stephanie does a trick with the nx.c. and then exe- cutes the Houdini needle trick. The novelty of a girl doing magic calls for more tricks by Miss Stephanie. There follows a striking novelty when, against a black background iTi an uncanny light the girls dressed oddly in Indian-like head- dress appear from the black one at a time and vanish. They use different levels and various combinatlbns and end with just their hands appearing, in one again the singer, unan- nounced throughout, does a serious number. Miss BensOn and the mi.C clown a bit, she sings, and he smashes with a smooth dan6e. Full shows six large' champagne, glasses in a sort of pyramid with an impressionistic arch of biilibles over and the girls -posing, on two levels with large balls in their hands. They are dressed In yellow- ish, skin-tight, spangled harlequin sdrt of costumes with'headdresBe0. A girl does a fan dance" that' the cops-won't bother and all are In for a brief finale.
