 l feel that ] am willing to bank on my statement that this picture will be one Of the best in which I have ever appeared. Paramount believes in it, and to prove it gave me a supporting cast that couldn't be beaten. Just con sider the list. Pauline Stark is leading woman; Joseph Bowling was The Mira cle Man in the picture which proved enormously popular Theodore Roberts, one of the greatest actors in the pro- fesion; Charles Ogie, another fine character actor Charles French, Tom Kennedy, E.
