Mitchell, who has had much theatre and film experience, has played in the United States in stock and Shakespearean repertory, including a tour with the Ben Greet Players and with Charles Coburn’s Shakespearean Company. He was seen in New Zealand some time ago in the film version of Lost Horizon. \ Treasure Island, with sound effects and music, occupies in its radio version approximately half-an-hour.
