The young people are Dorothy Page, who for the last four years has been heard by millions on the radio, and Henry Mollison, slim, dapper and talented star of British stage and screen. Miss Page, a native of Northampton, Pa., has been given a dual role — that of a glamorous opera singer and her hardboiled "double." Mollison appears as a typical New York socialite, who spends more than his allowance in an effort to appear a man-about-town. Miss Page's picture was seen in Los Angeles newspapers by Universal casting officials, and she was summoned to Universal City for tests. They placed their stamp of approval on her, and the leading role in "Manhattan Moon" was the result. Mollison, after appearing in a score of stage plays and in as many motion pictures in London, was seen by European representatives of Universal and was sent to Hollywood for tests.
