It looks as if several thou- , sand people were required for this · one scene. There are many thrills and spills and much realistic action. Costumes, settings and direction deserve much praise. A small fortune must have been spent on these things. Miss Davies is said to wear some seventeen costumes during the action, one of which, heavily laden with gems, i's reported to have cost the management over two thousand dollars. In the cast are a number of well known people including Lynn Harding, Holbrook Blinn and Ralph Graves. One of the best bits is han dled nicely by johnny Dooley. "Yolanda" is a smooth running, interesting picture and one of the best of the historical films .
