With the rest of his set, instead of serenading his lady-love with quaint and sentimental tunes, he cuts rugs and gets hot to the tune of “The Lady’s in Love With You." Jackie Cooper, who grows in talent, puts over this modern Willie Baxter perfectly. He inspires—at least in the older mem- bers of the audience—exactly the right degree of lofty amusement, reminiscent embarrassment, and sympathy.
