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 />
