her wisp of garment with wintertime fro lics a striking 19th cent ury scene of scarlet swath ed ladies and tophatted beaus courting pasty black coach lanterns a nautical note with sailors in girl catchers some horsing around with a wildeyed horse ginny carson and christine prentice and some tricky footwork with flappers doing the charl ston and gangsters oh the prowl the revue skated into 1968
