Grant Hampton, for the family the late treasurer of the society, IIIUIINIIIII - is a costume play calling for an unusually large cast, appealing incidental music. Ralph Clon-ingwill be seen as the notorious Colonel Tom Blake, whose name is a terror up and down the Mississippi, which in the early forties was a main artery of travel. Leo Carrillo, the star of the original New York production of the present season, has just signed up with Tom Wilkes for an engagement at the Majestic theatre in Los Angeles. The play has also been screened into a massive production which has not yet been shown. Some beautiful settings have been prepared by Technical Director Eddie Eddie and the stage mechanics at the Wilkes, while Stage Director Harold Hutchinson is putting forth every c fort to have a masterful production. From a butterfly chaser to a killer is the transition made by Ralph Cloninger during the course of the action of the play in which he essays the role of the notorious Colonel Tom Blake, which gives the popular leading man at the Wilkes an opportunity like that he had in The Masquerader to score a triumph. Tom Rumford, who later assumes the name of Colonel Blake, goes to his home on the Mississippi after years spent abroad with a poetic uncle in the study of nature. He falls in love with his cousin, the ward of his father, General Rumford . Thereupon he is challenged to a duel by Major Patterson, a rival in love, who surprises, cowes and humiliates him. before the girl he loves. In disgrace he leaves his home and takes to the life of a gambler on the Society and Music Magnolia er big river. In the gambling resort of General Awlando Jackson he sees his first murder and gets his first lesson in how to be a brave man.
