The results of the supposed adminis- tering of a dose of the elixir to General Burbeck (Herman Schelter) and the arrival of his daughter-in-law (Marcine Nelson) and her baby create bewildering and amusing situations. Other parts in the play were taken by Irene Podratz, Doris Swanson, Harold Grothem, Barbara Dewey, Lorraine Krieg, Eva Johansen, James Conroy, and Ernest Freese. The production staff included Miss Jelstrup, coach, Pauline Weber, costume manager, Francis Foley, business manager, Stanley Magnuson and Glendon Rose, property managers. H. Schelter I, Podratz ' is.
