Review: (Table Talk, May 10, 1930)
 "...Boat Race night at The Regent was a particularly bright and lively entertainment. The theatre, which was the official rallying place for Scotch and their supporters was gaily decorated with cardinal, gold and blue. Special items on the programme included a ballet composed of hefty young Scotch Collegians decked in hula-hula skirts and top hats in every stage of disintegration."
