Ames and Winthrop are great fav orites and are remembered here es pecially for their comedy act, "Caught in a Jamb." Their new act is said to be Just as funny and it is one of the big comedy novelties of the season. Edith Clasper, Ivho shares headline place with Ames and Winthrop, is a dainty dancer.
