Many entertainers spend an en- tire lifetime and still not boast the list of impressive long st engagements in the record Sma has. His “Bach to Boogie” ente: tainment has scored successfully in | such class bars as Lou’s Bar, Phila- delphia; Commodore Buddy Club, Atlantic City; Riptide Club, Wild-i wood, New Jersey; Brown Derby | Club, Honolulu, and Mercur's Musi- | cal Bar, Pittsburgh. Small is primarily an entertainer who gears his vocals, novelties and piano numbers to the particular audience before him. His novelty tunes have been a hit wherever he has played. The distinctive piano stylings of Small make for good entertainment and good listening. Combined with this is the rare quality among single entertainers— ability to give a large variety inl his presentation and still make each number intimate and appealing. Joe Small arrives Friday after- noon from Seattle. FROM TACOMA A. W. Reynolds of Tacoma is re- gistered at the Baranof Hotel.
