VARIETY 3» COLUMBIA 8UNDAY NIGHT (Nov. 12) ZENIA KEIFE HAVE US MAKE YOU* CUTS \\ riI r for |»rli THE STANDARD ENGRAVING CO 660-502 7th Ave. New York ing and talking. Eary and Eary did nicely with a contortion act. "Blllle" Fay, a buxom blonde with a big voice, replaced Roma and won favor. The Musical Tremalnes got through nicely, with a comedy musical act and Moss and Frey pleased with a singing turn. EMPIRE (E. J. Bulkley. mgr.).—The "Cosy Corner Girls'* got a poor start here Monday, Dan Crlmmlns being almost unable to work owing to a severe hoarseness, going through his part Monday night with a physician In attendance. This slowed up the entire show, but the numbers kept up a lively pace and the comedy of Crlmmlns and Rosa Gore seem- ed to satisfy those in front. Miss Gore se- cured good results from her rough comedy bit in the restaurant and the old "What Are the Wild Waves Saying" bit brought the usual big laugh. It Is a question what the wild waves would say had they taken a look at Llzette Howe in that union suit. Otherwise Miss Howe made the usual attractive appear- ance and put over a nice hit In her specialty. A "Moon" number led by Gladys St. John and well worked up proved one of the hits of the show. Miss St John was handicapped by throat trouble, too, and OUle Golden led one or two numbers for her. Jack Howard scored with his tenor solos. He Is a new- comer In the show and will take the part now played by John West, when the latter leaves next week. A new part was put in this week for Charles Mack, as an Irishman. Stein A Leonard.
