teresting and varied theatrical career.
For five years he was the matinee
| idol of Los Angeles in stock produce
tons His adventurous spirit took
him to Australian haunts where for
two and half years he played in
stock.
Belasco, Trohman and Morosco
have had him signed IN at one time
or another B!ll claims with hearty
laugh that he has appeared in about
every play that was ever written,
from Ben Hur to Rose of the
Rancho" THE Sign of the Cross" and
all the popular board favorites.
When David Belasco made his ar
engagements for the production of THE
Rose of the Rancho" he approached
Mr. Desmond with an offer to play
the leading role opposite Frances
Starr. AS Bill laughingly puts it, 1T
was a little matter of salary that kept
me with Morosco."
One can readily understand how
handsome Bill made such reputa-
ton for himself on the legitimate.
His voice is rich. full and manly; his
physique is that of a Greek athlete.
A pair of clear, gray. laughing eyes
look out from underneath brows
marked with distinction. His regular
clear cut features are too well known
to justify further comment.
In connection there will be shown
a two-reel comedy, "A Sanitarium
Scandal"
