Some of Last Season's Performers Return
Lar ge Crowds Thron g Theater ¦'.
n
" IHE show, opens with an over-ture,
"Bridal Rose," played
by Prof. Charles Maurer.
.—. J This overture is a spicy num-:
ber and is well rendered. 0It must be
heard to be appreciated. .
Next we have the Leyburns, a neat
act, composed of comedy and pathos.
This act seems to appeal to the audi-ence
for it receives its ' share of ap-plause.
Adler and Alene follow in an act of
originalty. They met with the approval
of the audience at the start and held
them to the finish. Miss Alene is a
clever talker and makes a splendid ap-pearance
on the stage. Mr. Adler is an
unusually clever imitator and holds the
audience spell bound.
Dorya and De Leon are a pair of: mu-sical
wonders. : They play on different
string instruments and their proficiency
is marvelous. Miss Dorva has a wide
range of "voice and controls her tones
with ease. .':,¦¦¦¦' [ :.
Fred Sanford, an old veteran per-former,
appears next with a monologue.
His songs and stories went with a
scream and Fred was a riot with a cap-ital
"R." Sanford has plenty of good
new material up his sleeve for the re-mainder
of this week.
. Closing the bill is Somers and Law.
These boys have been seen in Hershey
park for three preceding seasons. They
always have something new. This year
they are bffering a comedy, "The Sher-iff."
- It is 'funny thruout and they
scored a bigger hit than ever. The re-citation
used hi the act is a beautiful
composition while their grand opera
burlesque is a knock out and brings
theni big laughs and tremendous ap-plause.—
