Before joining the Triangle forces she had played opposite William Elliott in "When We Were Twenty-One." with Jack Pickford In "Seventeen" and with Lou Tellcgen in "The Long Trail." Winifred Allen os one of the small est leading ladies now appearing on the screen. She stands 4 feet 11 inches in high heeled shoes, and tips the beam at 100 pounds in her furs. Winifred Allen.
