new. The production contains many

York's Chinatown, a huge ballroom
scene, the death of a man who topples
out Of the fourth story Of a ~pretentious
home in Riverside drive, a faithful re-
production Of New York juvenile
court, and a thrilling scene in the SUI

member it long after they have seen
it on the screen. Miss Elliston, who
