BTIR THEATRE WEDNESDAY Sessue Hayakawa in “THE TEMPLE OF DUSK” A character of strong personality played by a star of power. Everyone should try and take this picture in. Also Burton Holmes’ Travels THURSDAY BIG SEVEN REEL FEATURE William Desmond and Dorothy Dalton in “A Gamble in Souls” In this latest Triangle-Kay Bee play there is the smash and whirl and rush of the sea, a wonderful, breath-taking snlipwreck, the primal battle of two souls in the wilderness, with suspense, violence and all that goes to make up a virile story of primitive life. William Desmond, as a clergyman working in the slums of San Francisco, in the new Triangle-Kay Bee drama, “A Gamble in Souls,” preaches the doctrine of turning the other cheek, and when a big husky wallops him on the Jaw he makes good by turning the other and going down again. They do say this part of the picture irked Bill exceedingly. He is a big two-fisted athlete himself, and the role of punching bag was about the last Ke wanted to play. Dorothy Dalton, seen in many of Triangle’s plays during the past year, is co-starred with William Desmond in ‘‘A Gamble in Souls,” new drama by Lanier Bartlett. Miss Dalton’s last previous appearance was as star of “The Jungle Child,” in wnich she came from a primeval , fastness to New York. In tne new play, oddly enough, she goes from San Francisco’s cabarets to a desert island “SCRAPS AS ARE SCRAPS” IN NEW TRIANGLE DRAMA William Desmond and P. D- Tabler, Both in Heavyweight Class, Do Some Great “Mixing.” There are two fights in “A Gatable in Souls,” which make this Triangle-Kay Bee (play, by Lanier Bartlett, in which Thomas H. Ince presents Dorothy Dalton and William Destnond, one of the most sensational yet produced at the Culver City stucrtos. One is a free-for-all battle in what purports to be a mission in San Francisco, and the other is a mighty hand to hand struggle between two powerful men on' a lonely island. The free-for-all fight was staged on one of the studio stages and is remembered at the plant as one of the fiercest tussles ever enacted. In filming It Director Walter Edwards selected the hardest men physically at his disposal and then instructed them to "go to it.” They obeyed to a man, and the result was a rough-and-tumble, chair throwing, head splitting melee such as Author Bartlett had prescribed, but never believed -would be really staged. The two-men encounter took place on Santa Cruz Island, in the Pacific, and the combatants were William Desmond and P. D. Tabler. It was filmed in several sections, and so earnestly did the two actors piix it each time that they were compelled to rest for breath between scenes. The end of this struggle comes when Desmond hurls Tabler over the edge of a steep embankment and into the imprisoning ooze of a stagnant swamp.
