Guy Rarick Hands Out Fine Lot of Human Comedy on the Stage

It is easy to tell the jokes of the other fellow, but when it comes to creating new ones and dressing up an act in anew way, then the, job is not so easy. Dan Downing, eccentric comedian, with Grayce, has developed an act along individual comedy lines. At the Lyric. -I- -I- -ILOOKING OVER NEW PALACE BILL r centric and rapid human Cok edy la expected from Ed Wynn. A1 Jolson and the other established comedians like Raymond Hitchcock, hut when anew prospect flashes across the stage. I have the feeling that anew seh(y>! is growing up. In Guy Rarick, with Dick Tandler ,and Jane Stone, I think we have a candidate for the future. He gave me the impression that lie was actually thinking on ‘‘his feet” and that he was not just relying upon routine to put him over. He has personality and enough ideas to dominate the stage. He dresses up some old material in new clothes and yet has some mighty good individual material. Those assisting him do just the right thing. Keep your comedy eye on this tnan. Dolly Davis calls her act a revue, but it is really a minstrel show with both men and women taking part. As usual the jokes are terrible and that is true with every minstrel I have ever seen. The dancing and song numbers are good. The Billy Lamot Trio offer a wire act. Has speed. The Three Kenna Sisters present a musical offering. The over done effect of the first two numbers should he watched in order to get better result. Act on the whole seems to please. Some smart fun and some comedy vocal work puts Smith and Cantor over to fine appreciation. The movies Is .Doris Kenyon in “Idle Tongues.’* At the Palace today and Saturday. (By Walter D.
