The unit has been reviewed be- fore, but some local angles arc of special interest. Eddie and Jimniic !ire right up to snuff. Eddie stops the show, as usual and climaxes with "St. Louis Blues." It's good to hear him say, in his characteristic way, "Hello, Folks," and "Now let's see what's going to happen." Then he swings "For No Reason at AH" just for good measure. Two local youngsters—Gloria Seller, 9, and Walter Rasmu.ssen, 12 —stop tlae show with clever adagio number. The little lad is strong, graceful and agile. The girlie is cate as a bug's ear, and very clever, lihc also'sings sweetly and Is full of promise. Robert Zelgler, pianist, is a real artist In accompanying Pea- body, who violins a couple of good numbens, and also in his solo work. Zeigler formerly was with the Broadway theatre band at Tac6ma.
