The Birth and Evolution of Temple

born on Woodward-ave., between
Jefferson-aye. and Larned.st. Ii was
bcgotteD by a museum and nurtured
by the irst moying-picture machine
brought 10 Detroit. called the bio
graph. In those days the booking
or engagement OF vaudeville acts was
a haphazard business. with no sys-
TEN or rules governing the same. The
evolution Of the old Wonderland mIl-
scum to the present Temple theater
was like the transition or the chrys-
alis to the butterfly. With this eyo-
luton the engagement OF acts became
a serious study. not only In Detroit
but In the large cities throughout the
country where the socalled variety
theaters were In the same period OF
transition. Through concentration OF
efforts the pioneers OF the business
tamong whom was the late r. W.
WigginsJ. who looked for nural-,,p.
lift in this branch OF theatrical en-
deavor. evolved "a system or clearing
house for vaudeville acts which is
known today as the United Booking
Offices OF America. This association of
interests occupies large portion OF
the ST. James building. New YORK. and
supplies all the acts that appear in
the hrst-class vaudeville theaters of
the eastern and middle states. and the

with the Western Vaudeville Manag.
