According to the IMDb Dale Arden is an actress and is credit with only one film and that was an uncredited character in 1951’s “Io sono il capataz” (The Return of Pancho Villa). I can find no other reference to her in the Internet. Dale Arden was a fictional character in the ‘Flash Gordon’ comic strip and there was also a clothing manufacturer with the same name. Therefore is the Dale Arden in the ‘Pancho Villa’ her real name or is it an alias used by an unknown actress.

The Return of Pancho Villa – 1950
Any actor could have the name of Dale Arden but I believe it was an actress who used that name for "The Return Of Pancho Villa" in 1950. There might have been more than one but this is the only one I know of. It's a common name so a lot of people would be using it. The superhero, "Flash Gordon", is, in reality, Dale Arden. There was also a tailor in New York City by the name of Dale Arden who owned Arden's Outfitters in Brooklyn. So yeah, it's a common name so I'm not surprised that this actress used it for the Pancho Villa film. There's probably lots of people with that name and they live everywhere. You just have to look. Hope this helps. Thank you.
