The first number on the program was a song, "Clang of the Forge," by the company, followed by jokes, songr, local hits, etc., by the end men. Sydney Hicks, George Hosier and Con Davis were highly applauded in their son»s. The chorus rendered a medley and the closing song of the first part of the performance, "I'se Gwine Back to Dixie."
