To achieve complete realism for this breathtaking story of typical Americans living through the most dramatic period in modern history —the turbulent years from 1914 to the present—The March of Time used a casting method which no movie producer dared to attempt.| Of the cast of more than 1,400, in- cluding 73 speaking parts, not, ope had ever appeared before a movie al of this cross-section of the American. people who -eomprise the “Ramparts” cast is Warner Stowell, who plays part of the kindly, wise, old Cén- gressman John Lawton. Lecturer, cales executive, and teacher, Stow- ell fought in the Spanish-American War, s a Lieutenant Colonel in the World War. Hired originally as wardrobe au- thenticator for the film, Marguerite Boynton Brown was found to be ideal for the role of Mrs. Bensinger, wife of the German professor whose life is shattered in the war by his internment as an enemy alien. An- other housewife and mother, Myra Archibald, plays Mrs. Averill who loses her son in the Lafayette Es- cadrille. Julia Kovacs, Kent, who portrays Mrs found that her screen role exactly paralleled Ner experience in; the war when her husband was killed, just as he is in “The Ram-| parts.” In the role of the German professor was Dr, Alfredo U. Wyss, Swiss scientist and biologist, who also re-enacted some of his own life in the World War.
