...Harlow '23, "Big Enough for Two" by W. B. Leach Jr. '21, and "An Isle in the China Sea" by M. H. Dill 1 S.L.A. There was some question at first as to which pieces were to be recorded, so Mr. Grady, the leader of B. F. Keith's orchestra for a number of years, who was selecting the numbers, had them played to him over the telephone. In this way he was able to tell which ones would sound best after being recorded, and so was able to make his selection. These records will be for sale after...
Variety is the key-note of this week's bill at Keith's. The usual acrobatics, jazz, a monologue, skits, and a song-and-dance act of the old-fashioned type are combined to make up a light but very entertaining performance.

Prohibition is still a popular source for vaudeville quips. Last night at Keith's the billtoppers, Billy B. Van and James A. Corbett, had the house with both hands in their skit. "The Eighteenth Amendment", and Percy Bronson and Winnie Baldwin presented a one-act fantasy, picturing the effect of a bottle of scotch on the young man of 1971. Nor did others neglect the opportunity for occasional dry humor...
