Ahmica'i Leadlog l«d»p«irie«» Ageat EDDIE SMITH 1501 Broadway Hew York Orpheum patrons are getting a dose of the class arrangements that are a Duke Ellington trademark this week. From his opener, ' "Blue Skies," to the finale, Etlibgton is of- fering plenty to please the jazz high- brdwists who appreciate musician- ship in swing time. In addition to music, Ellington is featuring four vocalists, but none impress particu- larly as rating with the instrumental work, although receiving good ap- plause. After opener, Rosita Davis vocals "A Train" and then gives out with some dance steps. Next vocalist up is Marie, doing "Rocks in My Bed.' Al Sears, tenor sax, gives' powerful noodling to "Don't Mean a Thing" in solo spot' Johnny Hodges, alto sax and voted number one saxophonist, lakes the spotlight on "The Mood To Be Wooed." Both saxophonists are aces, with Sears having a shade more rhythmic drive in his rendition. Joya Sherrill sings "I'm Beginning to See the Light" a new recording by band, and "All of a Sudden;" Some hot im- provising on both muted and full trumpet is provided b" Rex Stewart in a solo. Albert Hibbler draws best response by vocal work, doing "My Lilllc Brown Book," "Don't You Know I Care" and 'Til Be Seeing You." His delivery is in the style currently popular with Negro croon, ers and amounts to virtually note improvising with the larynx instead of an instrument High spot of Ellington's work is hit with "Frankic and Johnnie" fea- turing the Duke at the keyboard with bass, slide and violin. At show caught orchestra had a tendency to step on latter half of in- strumental solos, the powerful brasses drowning out some intricate work. I Same was true of vocals, the lyrics BOB KENNEDY Songs-M.C. 3 Mins: Versailles, N. Y. Bob Kennedy is a good-looking tenor who has a brief specialty, spot here. Does pops and light opera stuff well; with his looks and wavy blond hair he's a good bet tor mu- sicomedy. . . Kennedy is :weak at emceeiug, be- ing, inclined lo mumble introduc- tions. The voice Is there for things that he. does. Knltn. MARIAN NILES Dancing •i Mins. Versailles N. Y. Marian Niles is a cute youngster who's practically a newcomer to chow biz. but she indicates possibili- ties. Has plenty of personality and hoofs with a gay abandon easily communicable, to hex audience. Taps are clear, but what; she needs now more than anything is experi ence. But'she's got the spirit. Kahn, BOB COrSEY * CAROLYN AYRES Dancinjr 5 Mins. Versailles, N. Y. Bob Copsey and Carolyn Ayres are a distinctive young interpretative dance team, of the East Indian type, and their refreshing looks, particu- larly Ihoje of the girl, do much to get Ihcm over. Good tor niterles, and the more in- timate the boile. the better their re- ception; Okay for musicomertv. loo. Kflhn. Tins oddly-named sepian comic comes to this house with material lh,T. doesn't 1 add up to orthodox valine ^uudai'ds. Dressed in obvi- ously too-tight garb and a freshman hat, he does some slithering dance slops and a song with blue over- tones, nei.her of which is distin- guished in either content or deliv- ery. Nevertheless, exit corning after his song brought him a top hand, Needs lots of everything before he can even think of going into better- scaled spots. . Jose. PAT BREWSTER Sengs a Mins. Coaacabana. X. Y. Pat Brewster is a vivacious blonde cutester who looks like a great bet for musicomedy. It's unfortunate that she must be likened to Betty Huttori because of her style, but. ac- tually. Miss Brewster is distinctive in her own right; Jive, of course, is her forte, and she can really swing the stuff. With a little more experience she can play almost anywhere. Knlm. DIXIE ROBERTS DancinK - 4 Mins. . Csnacabana, N. Y. Dixie Roberts is a hoofing looker who has lots of personality, okay for the soot she has at the Copa. Tape are not as clear as they might be, but she won the palm-pounders here. Costuming, supplied by the Copa, could be more abbreviated to permit her more freedom tor the; hoofing, and it would likewise accentuate what are hinted to be good-looking gsms. For a hoofer she's bedecked too much. Kohn. I'aMoo Pa i son Re Ore Nino .Morales Bd Hotel Hlltsaor* Joan llyldpft Ann Warren- nandy Stewart Kddy.

Routine layout • features a line of musical and comedy acts with roller skating and. acrobatic novelties on the side for average customer inter- est. Bob Herman sells the show ac-. ceptably as emcee and delivers one of its best punches in a blend of ad- dling and comedy patter, a la Jack Benny. He also gets a nice hand for his trick dance on top of his silk hat and for his comic striptease. Kathryn Hoyt a good looker, reg- isteis at vocaU of "Hip, Hip, Hooray, "The Vei-yThought of You," and a swing version of "The. Kerry Danc- ers." The gal has a pleasing style. Richard Drake, deadpan comedian with a Russian accent, plays a bal- alaika and looks bored for moderate results. His best shot is "Twelfth Street Rag." Miller and Jene quicken the tempo of the bill with a fast routine of tumbling and acrobatic stunts, slanted for laughs. Rex and Betty Powers, in the open ing spot, provide some thrills with (Cot). Management comes up with a good headline combination this stanza, ith the Clyde Lucas orchestra and Phil Regan sharing top. billing. Hegan. closing the show, has the customers with him all the way. ■ His tenoring of "Night and Day." "Irish Lullaby"I Dream of You," "Boy of Mine," "Donegal," "Trolley Song" and 'I'll Be Seeing You" supple- mented bv his infectious Irish humor sends hirfi off to boffo results. Beth Fartc 11 oroves a good opener with a sessftn of amazing contortion and acrobatic control tricks. Makes nice appearance in. short radium-; treated costume for flash closing stunts done on pedestal, good for several bows. Bob Williams, who lost Red Dust., his chow partner, on his last trip; here, is back with a white terrier. Act follows in the same groove as before with Williams depending more on his gabbing than on the dog's per- formance. However, dog does a few tricks such as a back somersault.and skipping the rooe with Williams, and combined with Williams' chatter sends them off a click. Band's portion leads off with a loud version of "Tico Tico" featuring the showmanlv drumming of Jimmv Masters, sfieuing into Lues" vocali- zation of Tf'our Feets Too Bic." both sarnevinc nice aonlause.
