 In what esteem this company IS held at Fl Iaso may be gieaned from a paragraph taken from the last crit icism given them by one of the staff writers signing himself "C. G." who said in part:
 Tn the closing of the Audra Alden players at the Texas Grand Fl Paso loses a valuable civic asset. It is the more pity that the city does not possess a theater free from .nterfer- ence whereby this and similar merN torious attractions could be presented For the past IA weeks the Alden company have practically attracted capacity audiences to the Texas Grand at prices well within the scope nf the average purse. yet the produc tions provided would not suffer in comparison with those of many road shows Who demand tho two-dollar scale of prices"
