Mickey's Melody Makers started the ball rolling with n jazzy selec- tion, and were followed by a song by the Bootleggers en bloc. Gus and Carl then obliged with a song, which was full of humour and kept the company in good spirits. The next Hem, was the decided hit of the first half of the pro- gramme. This was contributed by the Tavares sisters, four in all, who sang and danced to the strains of "Lovable and Sweet." The item was uproariously ceived and was followed by an- other song.
