'Jubilee' unit was re viewed in Variety at Oriental, Chi cago, June 9. TABOR, DENVfai Denver, July 25. Headlined by four Jap tumblers, the Kanazawa troupe, the current vaude bill at the Tabor, is okay Other two acts are comedy and audi- ence .gets numerous laughs out of each of the three acts. The .Japs use their feet like hands and toss each other about and spin each othsr about in the air as though the One .being tossed were a rubber ball. Their act is introduced by routine hne girls in Jap kimonas and parasols, with Virginia Pei'kins doing specialty dance. The Kanazawa troupe are nimble and last, and do some difficult feats of tumbling in okay fashion, Edison and Louise have a hokum act-that rates laughs and applause •They use a dog, piano, banjo and .a trick oboe that Shoots firecrackers, thumbs its nose, and comes .apart, right down to the. mouthpiece, and with Edison making music in spite of the wrecking. Moroni and Coralee open with ac robatic comedy, doing head spins from one side of stage to the other. Comedy is overdone and could stand toning for better effect. Opening routine two girls in sailor costumes for a sailor's hornpipe, which is effective. Virginia Lee Madden, of the line, contribs special- ty dance that is okay.

Show is hall^ooed 9s the' «ame produced in New York 'by '.Clarence Robinson, ,Who .rame over here with a troupe tit 63 tie put it «en in both places.

J£id 'Of the tido .does best because .of his almost °. dincanny agility .and jprecision. Rollin Smith garners well with his 'Ole Man JBtovar' and -Bubsequent offerings, -^llso true of the Tramp Band. Novelty of the latter in- triguedhere. Dance team Of \Norton and Mar- got, spotted .twice, does not .click so well .with the itheatre audience, -al- though it may be another question in the nightie, as is tthe case with two legs loaded with taps walk-ad on and off by Bill Bailey. Line of 16 gir4s showing here .does not stack up as well in looks and mould as might be <expfected of a firsticlass itroupe .-txtming out of Harlem, hut ,gals know their -steps and get theni over with a fair degree of success. Whyto's Hopping Mani- acs, three couples of hot swing- steppers, do well. Band sticks to the pit *or the ^first half, 'but moves on stage to .back numbers during the second. Entire itroupe ds getting' a stiff workout 'here, .doing one matinee a week and eafih night at the theatre plus one Show at the Moulin Rouge afterwards. "Show July 26 for four wesks and may come back here. Moves to the Paladium, London. Hugo. say the least.

Makeup as comic-strip .guy is true, but a little ragged. Both Miss -Ques- tetle and "W-elch accorded 'niice^ands, but mostly for ;1lheir originsil Toles. Also billed ar^ the ^0 Brothers, with Eddie Rio, who rsoentHy lhad pairt in -New iFaces of 1§37' Aicher; Jean Deveroux & Co., and the "7 Variety Gambols. Eddie Rio'^s 'portrait lOf a -femme taking a hath' is a panic for .women payees, as it's been luere on previous occasions. Two brothers, .acting .as stooges outfront, come on atage (to aid -in a "March of Time'' traiveSty, plenty .good. Off to lotta handdlt^ps after some fast hoofing. Opening cog is dglegacted to the Variety Gambols, four boys . Bnd three lemme acrobats. Latter^' ap- pearance not -of the 'best, but -com- pany more than makes .up for it with round irf pyramids, .splits, hoof- ing and trampoline stuff. Standout is triple splits by gals, one with feet on shoulders of other two. Dance turn djosiing show, includes Miss'Deveroux, ballerina; the eccen- tric Falla Sisters, and Slanohe Lewiis, tapper. Plenty of stuff on the ball arid .a swell act for closing. Miss Deveroux contribcutes .'coupla neat ballet numbers, -including some sock pirouettes, Falla Sistei-g, fiarbed niftily in blue and- then pink, offer tw3 aeroba'tic numbers, while Miss Lewis tur.ns in a swell itap to. the tune of 'Poets and Peasants.' Overture, under Eduard Werner's stick, got .over better than any Other seen here in ^ome time.

Downstairs jammed, balcony filling fast at last show caught Firiday eve- ning (23), Screen: 'Between Two Women' CMG), Rete. ROxy, R Y. The stage atuff this week is a 40 minutes ■Onoe-.over-Hghtly. With 'Wee Willie Winkie' >t20th) on the screen (reviewed in Variety June 30), not mutfh rostrum romping was needed. Short sihow gives plenty of turnover, and yet doesnH make the Roxy r-egulars think they're being shont-chqnged, even with tilted .scale, from 55c. to 75c. . There's a. -wallqping finale to the flesh .exhibit when lJuncan and Bremner, two huSky Highlanders in fiill .Soot regalia, come trotting on blasting bagpipes, followed by Mar- jorie Knapp, who solos "Something About a Soldier' dn heavy burr -ac- cent. Then tsomes the real sock when the 24 ^Gae Foster girls romp in abbreviated !kilts, and wheel through a seven minute number that has 'em rolling in and out of forma- tions While balancing on huge globes. Oirtfrenters went for it in a big way. Prior to their flnal frolic the girls had little to do, opening with a shortie stomp that gave most a .brief whack at sOlo acrobatics of minor sort, and a here-and-gone posturing picture aboUt midway. First .of -the three specialties on the bill was Ray Sax. His simul- taneous tapping and sax tooting i.s still good; in fact, his work has im- proved . since 'last around. Deucing, Buster Shaver and mid- gets, vGeorge .and Olive Brasno. Fine turn, always good for st>'6ng returns, was sliced somewhat, cwith the tots' singing getting the scissors for the. sake of time saving. Three Swifts, vet straight and hoke club juggling male group, hold down their snot about o.k. Act .stiU needs an .effective opening. • With running .tim-s at a premium the trio could have soeeded by deleting some of the tedious repetitious quasi- comedy. Bi7. strong at last show ooening night. Bert. MiCHIGAN, DETROIT Detroit, July 27. Betty Boop and Popeye under the same roof! Joint buying of the car- toon characters is a first-time book- ing, and things work a little better than you'd think. Don't provide much substance for the 50-minlite show, but they're good kid fodder and add 'needed lightness for a sum- mer bill. Biggest fault with the lineup, and not the chairacters, is spotting. Pop- eye, enacted by Harry Foster Welch, occupies deuce, which is oke, but the 'Boop-a-doop' gal, Mae Questelle. is spotted immediately following spin- ach champ, which is monotonous to STATE, N. Y. This is a sleeper ride' week at the State; once over lightly on "both stage and screen and ibiz -way <0S .on opening night flnal show as proof that the fans most certainly 'do smell 'em out. Rostrum portion of the entertaiin- ment is not the worst in the world, but just .sOtSO. And only four acts— which looks a >bit like ^cheating. It isn't really, considering the fact that the Lucky Millinder band, headlined, occupies 40 minutes of stage time, but that's 'What it looks like. James Evans opens the proceed- ings -snappily. He's a .pedal juggler, and one of the best in his clan. Can play any type house, vaude or pic- tures, and okay; In the deuce is Frances Faye (new acts) whose spe- cial distinction in life seems to be that she originated, or so 'it is claimed for her via a pa. intro, za- ;:oo-zazz. It's .okay deuce entertain- ment for a vaude bill, but not mucih more than that. Rosco Ates follows and he has, by now. become pretty adept -at vaude. Works with a good-looking girl in a mighty old-timey man-woman rou- tine. Not good, not bad, although there are at least two lines -which are too blue for vaude houses. Which calls to mind the curious fact that vaude acts now are getting away with more dirt than the polished-up burley people even are permitted. Not too often, fortiunately, but much too much, even so. Also a curious note is that the mob out front either has forgotten who Ates ds, or doesn't cai'e. Maybe that personal appear- ance gag is weanng out. There wasn't a ripple on Ates' walk-on, though he got a fair hand on exit. Follows the Millinder band and that brings up the thought that it's about time some of these stage-bands went out and bought themselves some mutes. This act is either on a sustaining commercial for the .as- pirin manufacturers or should be. Sitting through it without develop- ing a headache is a miracle. Not tlial it's a .bad band; far from that. Just too noisy. As a matter oC fact this fellow Millinder is one of the more musicianly lOf the col- ored macstros and his leading, while the, nth degree in calisthenics, shows quite distinctly that he knows his rhythm and his band. He isn't j.ust hopping around and waving his stick; he knows. His orchestrations are excellent and he has a topnotch crew. Consists of 13 men, nine of them brass, but it is -the piano which dominates, And that's something. Interspersed are a male soloist, a femme soloist, a boy hoofer and. a sejctet of Lindy hopper.*;; Audience lilted the latter especially weill, de* spite the fact that they merely added to the din. Picture is 'Married Before Break- fast* (MG), a first-run. State gets only one or two firsl -runs a yeai' and they are almoKf ?'i pntornatic tip- oft' on quality. Kauf. PARAMOUNT, N, Y. Accepitable summer entertainment is provided by Mai HaiUett orchestra, •plus -Hal LeRoy, Teddy Grace and other-s. <LeRoy is the big wallop of the show but in others, booked sep- arately for the engagement or car- ried in by Hallett such as the boy singer^ Jerry IPerkms, the show totals to an hour's diversion that's okay. It'.s JEar from the best the house has had but better than some, thus averaging satisfactorily. For Hallett, long a fave with the dancing bunch in the nation's ball- rooms, <it'-s -Arst Broadway theatr« date oif '.its joind. As a name Hallett isiit lup there with the topnotdhers that have been 'booked for this 'stand but has iQuite a following ifrem the radio plus other bvchestraing .around the ieast, Inrtuding himself the band num- bers 13 men, -jseMoral of whom double •for speoialtifis. These indude Charlie Blake, the drummer who has a spot to himself, vwith a few Jyxics to flt his drummihg stint; Frankie Carle, Who"s ninible aft the piano and gets across nicely with two solos; Joe Cabonera, bass Addler, a portly and ingratiaiting sort, plus another portly musioian, Buddy Welcome, who doubles from -clarinet to vocal ar- rangements. In addition to these, Hallett (Carries .Jerry Perkins :(new acts), youthful -vocalist picked up in Chi. When caught Parkins did four numbers , -under urffing, with the Hallett men .backing .him as a .chorus pn one. Perkins precedes LeRoy who closes stoutly with his -hoofing. Tapper is doing foiur nuinbers, including the Old standby to 'Sweet SueJ' One of his numbers is a version of a lazy colored boy wanming .up to a Suzy-Q and truck. The Le Hoy technique is smart, as it has always been. Two <>ther specialty performers are Val Setz, the jugifler, and Teddy Grace, singer (new acts). Miss Grace, strong on low not^s, puts a lot ol Harlem flavor into her work and through fine selling goes over good. She does three numbers early in the proceedings, returning for one a little later and then a.aain for the finale and 'Underneath the Harlem Moon,* Finale is a radium-^effect scene and flashy. Various effects onto drops from the booth, developed by Harry Rubin, badkffjound numbers for the band and others. That x>f a^^ryosy wagon and campfire hi6h-lighti>ig one of PesrMnIs poos, is oanticularly well oonoeived and effective. Hallett's hand features .specialties and .fioloing more than it does straiffht KWiine numbers. As a band and in the .playing, it statfks uw -as a good, sv/ingy organization. Hal- lett- perflonaUy doesn't do much -cuit- side of directing, but is a .nersonabl* and engajung maestro at the helm. Show ran an even hour, wheA caught, a little loucer than r^ost here. About 10 or 15 minutes less mi>»ht make it tijsihter. . ^ Feature is "-Exclusive (Par), t«- viev/ed in last week's Vametv. •Chor. HIPP, BALTIMORE Baltimore, July 27- Will Osborne is back at the Hippo- drome and turning in his usual good job. Varying his former routine somewhat with the interpolation of some niew arrangements and a num- ber of specialties, he uses up a fast moving 50 minutes to do his stuff. Specialties include Ruthie Long, Dorothy Rogere and F-enwick and Cook. Fronting a musicianly aggregation, Osborne opiens with a rather long medley, immediately followed by an interesting handling of 'September in the Rain' and 'Cherry Blossom Lane.' Ruthie Long next in well sold hoofing routine, earning an en- core and giving out with a legit buck. Girl oould stand a bit of dressing up. Very swingy version of 'Turkey m the Twilight,' with the band well in the groove, followed to good returns and set nice spot for Dorothy. Rogers in okay vocals of 'Ain't Got Rhythm and 'Night and Day,' latter getting some excellent backing-up by the aggriegation. Specialties, in which members of the band contribute in good style and to rousing returns, spliced in nicely hei-e with the familiar Os- borne rendition of 'St. Louis Blues' in three-quarter time in between skillfully changing pace, and setting matters for 'Merry-go-round Broke Down' with vocal by the maestro and a rousing finish featuring the brass section with the three slide trumpets r6ally going to town. Fen wick and Cook follow, stop- ping ■ proceedings very nicely on opening show. -Comedy aerobatics scored heavily and version of the slap dance from 'Whjte Hbr.se Inn* had the customers yelling for more. Boys give doings a decided lift. Im- pressions of variou.s name bands next, including Osborne's not very flattering impression of Rudy Vallee. Closes with take-off of old time jazz band giving- out with 'Strutter,^ Ball,' and good for a series of en- cores. Pi"Uire is 'Girl Said No' (GN). Burni.
