Davidson, Charles Trowbridge, Ned Sparks, and Jane Keithley. Note that this movie had been set to star Clara Bow, but just before filming was to start, she had a nervous breakdown, and a desperate Paramount turned to stage actress Peggy Shannon, who had been just signed to a contract. She started filming this just five days after she arrived in Hollywood, and she apparently did a good job and was well received, but unfortunately did not have a major success in Hollywood, making a few dozen movies in the 1930s, few of them memorable ones.
