BILLY CFMBY—IUI8Y MARTIN Colored Entertainers Who Are Famous iis “The Black Spasm” and as a Hines Singer for Okeh Records The Gayety week starting Saturdayl matinee will shelter In conjunction with the popular and well known Jack ' Reid “Record Breakers Co.” a pair of the best liked and most versatile Ne gro artists on the American stage to day. They are Billy Cumby, known to thousands of theatre goers as the "Black Spasm” and Daisy Martin, the dainty miss whose clear sweet voice Is familiar the country over through her singing for the Okeh phonograph records. Billy Cumby’s forte is rare comedy interspersed with speedy dancing and some original parodies. As a dancer Cumby is perhaps without a peer in Columbia burlesque. He attempts and executes steps that are original with him and his sycopated stepping is al ways enough to stop any show. Daisy Martin can "jazz” a song as few of her race and sex and the way she sings "blues” numbers is always the signal for repeated encores. You have never heard the real typical “Ne gro Blues” until you have hearad Miss Martin sing her latest songs. In addition to thest two colored en tertainers Jack Reid has a bran new offering that Is Just chock full of novelties and vaudeville spcialists who are making their first appearance with this splendid attraction. "The Record Breakers” opens its week en gagement at the Cayety starting with a matinee performance on Saturday and there will be matinees every day at 2:15. We know how good this show is from our correspondents in Cleveland. Dayton, Toledo, Cincinnati, St. Louis and Kanas City and wr ran recom mend it in the terms of highest praise. Don’t fail to see it. And just one other “don’t", and that is, don’t wait until the last minute to get your seats just as though you were going to a pic ture show as seats at the Gayety are reserved by coupon.
