14 THE INDEX, Saturday, January 7, 1928<br />

T H E S T A G E A N D S C R E E N<br />

JANE, and Katherine Lee,<br />

who will head the program<br />

of Keith-Albee vaudeville at the<br />

Davis Theatre for the week beginning<br />

January 9, are the biggest<br />

little stars in the stage<br />

world. These two young girls,<br />

recognized as the greatest juvenile<br />

stars, have appeared in<br />

many feature films and, with<br />

their own company, produced a<br />

series of Jane and Katherine Lee<br />

pictures. They are equally at<br />

home on the stage and before<br />

the camera, and their brief engagement<br />

in vaudeville will<br />

evoke much interest.<br />

KATHERINE LEE"<br />

Will be seen at the Davis next week.<br />

Songs made while you wait is<br />

but a part of the unique act to<br />

be presented by Bob Hall, the<br />

"Extemporaneous Chap," who<br />

comes to the Davis next week.<br />

He makes poems and songs on<br />

every conceivable subject and<br />

does so while the audience is before<br />

him. His subjects are<br />

people "out front,'' chance sayings,<br />

and current topics of interest.<br />

"You'd Never Expect<br />

It," as Medley and Dupree have<br />

named their amusing act, keeps<br />

the audience chuckling, because<br />

nothing happens as you expect<br />

it to. The skit is full of surprises<br />

and laughs. Ed Janis and His<br />

New Eevue of 1928, another feature,<br />

is a miniature musical<br />

comedy; Felovis, known as the<br />

European Juggler, does amazing<br />

balance stunts with sticks and<br />

rubber balls.<br />

The photoplay offering will be<br />

about to make the disclosure she<br />

fears, he meets with a dramatic<br />

death. The story is not all drab,<br />

however. Amusing comedy and<br />

lighter moments relieve the tension<br />

and turn tears to laughter.<br />

Supporting the three principal<br />

characters are: Wesley Barry,<br />

Russell Simpson, Donald Keith,<br />

Evelyn Selbie, Jack Gardner,<br />

Bert Starkey, Austen Jewel,<br />

Reta Rea and Jason Robards.<br />
