David Belasco last week began an action in the United States District Court to enjoin Selwyn and Company from produc- ing "Among the Girls," a musical-version bf'* , Seven Chances," by Roi. Cooper -Me- grue, which had a long run in New York at the Belasco and the George M. Cohan theatres.- — In his complaint, Belasco alleges that he acquired the exclusive producing rights to "Seven Chances" by virtue of a contract entered into with Megrue in November, 1915. He further declares that the value of the exclusive producing rights to the play, which he owns, will be irreparably injured if the defendant company is per- mitted to produce the musical version of the play. Belasco names Megrue as a co- defendant in the action on the ground that he is assisting Selwyn and Company in preparing to stage the musical version of the play. The book of "Among the Girls" .was begun by Henry Blossom, who had it well underway when he died^Jhe work was token -up and completed ,t>y Megrue and Bl H. Burnside, and is now announced for an out of town production at New Haven, Conn, on May 8.
