Alex and Jam Session

Closing their first week at the Brer Fox tonight, Alex and His Jam Session have proved themselves a fine Orchestra, much to the liking of patrons. \All accomplished and versatile musicians they are a smooth working unit, who are equally et home in classical and jazz numbers. Five strong they are competent on fifteen of sixteen instruments, and are sym-pathic accompanists for the floorshow.

The entertainers boast six excellent numbers this week, one of which surely will be carried over for the new programme tomorrow. Outstanding is the American Indian specially, while "St. Louis Blues" is a runner-up. Larissa Anders, sol danseuse, presents "Melancholy Blues' and an original Mexican number.
