'The production also introduces a \find\ in the person of Eleanor Board- man, who plays the leading role. Not many months ago, Miss Boardman was only one of a thousand \extras\ on the Goldwyn Jot, waiting for an opportunity. During that time she proved her right to the opportunity of aying the 10:43? role in \Souls for ale.\ The principal players include Mae Busch, Barbara La Mart, Rich ard Dix, Frank Mayo and Lew Cody The Capitol Magazine is the suppl mentary film unit on the program, with lasts week's musical program, \Impressions of Alda,\ also held for another week.
