PISANO Milwaukee "Daily News," Nov. 17, 1916: - PALACE. Gen. Pisano, the target expert, has a rather elaborate setting and enters the scene with a great amount of flourish. He varies his program in almost every conceivable man- ner, and some of his shots come very near the danger zone. The young man and the young woman assisting the rifle expert evidently have more confidence in his ability as a marks- man than the more fortunate onea who re- main in the audience. They permit him to shoot a .22 caliber bullet within a half an inch of their foreheads, while the audience waits breathlessly, expecting to see one of the assistanta topple over, plugged through the head. But this hasn't happened—yet. immensely, comprising Misses Bngle, Mar- shall, Dolly and Elliott Their numbers were well received. A terpslchorean dream was offered by Marlta and members of the revue.
