ness and risks even her honor on
the altar of her friendship for q
man whose happiness is at stake.
The picture was adapted from the
story, 1.-THE Ladder" by Harold
Vickers, which appeared in Snappy
Stories magazine.
Edith Kennedy did the scenario,
Tom ForMan handled the mega

Miss Clayton is supported in this

ers. Clyde Fillmore is suitably cast
as Peter Gordon, Irving Cummings
as the "other man." Jane Acker as
Dora, the deceitful wife. Others are
Richard Sterling, Ruth Ashby. etc
