Show Guss menace to society in inimicable mood.GREATER GUSS GIBITZINGYENTLEMEN SCINTILLATE IN"BURB BATHTUBBIES"After four hundred years evading the Federal dicks, Al Capone's pineapple gorillas, and the famous Blue-Berry squadron of R. N. W. M .P., the ever-alert Utonian foto man succeeded in rounding up a action picture of the Guss Gibitizing Gentlemen, internationally-known jubilee-entertainers. Reading from right to left (Ace. to the TAGEBLATT) Morris Grantland "Crosby" Guss, Harry Lincoln "Laydown" Guss, and Nathan Panthleigh "Corona" Guss. This trio figures prominently in the Earl Bar-roll's 1942 edition of "Burp Bath Tubbies," featuring the favorite jubilee team of all times, "The Nasty Guss Yeggs."Music-lovers, terpsichore-lovers, theatre-lovers, bench-in-the-park lovers-unite! You have nothing to lose but your boredom! And you have everything to gain from Earl Barroll's joyous, color-drenched Crane idea revue, "Burb Bathubbies," featuring the favorite jubilee team of all times, "The Nasty Guss Gentlemen."Who are the Nasty Guss Yeggs? You have heard that Prosperity is just around the corner; you have heardTaylor-RichardsThe Best Place in Town to Buy Your Ford 41 East 9th South Wasatch 2916that eggs mark the spots where the hen last laid, and you've heard that a censor is a man who sees three meanings in a joke that has only two, but you say you don't know the Nasty Gentlemen? Fie on you, Gentle Reader. Double-he on you! Pi Phi on you!The Nasty Guss Crew troupe are delightfully eccentric upstart triplets, who bear the distinction of being able to croon through their left ears, let alone produce mellow moosic through their "two-by-four" schnozzles.They need no introduction anywhere. Their names have been splattered over roofs in Manhattan, dykes in Holland, hungry lines in Hungary, and outer houses in Kansas. Their vocal offerings are sweet moujik to Russians and help the Swedish rid of "killa kwetchan."When their instrumentations begin to float over the air, even Tabitha Harness and Chet Dowse could do an adaigo with finesse. Despite unfavorable press reports from Dubuque ,that they found their audience as hard to hold as ice cream in a blast furnace, "Laydown" Guss, the one who snarls like an Army mule and makes good his bro's "orphan money," asserted that the newsie from the Dubuque "Bugle" couldn't make a pass over the gate man by flashing his Fireman's pass, so he was irked and punched out the rotten ballyhooey.The writeup would have been correct, only he had a z in lousy.It is an established axiom among showmen that where-ever the Guss brethren appear, showmen consider themselves lucky if they own a door to keep them away.The featured singer of the trio is Morris, the 18-year old protege of Bing Crosby. This chap can baritone "torch-songs" and also composed the Spanish lyric to "Twenty Swedes Ran Thru the Weeds." The other two-thirds of kinship make noises like a 1912 phaeton. So does Morris.The mugs save coupons for their hobby. When they save up enough to get a knife, they're going to stab themselves.DRINKDenhalter'sCARBONATED BEVERAGES Wasatch 1013Page Three Hundred Thirty-four |
