San Francisco Bulletin, 25-April-1924 |
A McClure Newspaper Syndicate writer asked various celebrities about "When I was Twenty-One." William S Hart said "At the age of 21, I was an actor. My ambition was to endeavor to become a good one." "Hart's statement as to what his position in life was at the age of 21, and what his hopes and ambitions were at that time is both laconic, as one would expect it to be from him, and decidedly to the point."

Some readers will remember that Dorothy Davenport's husband, actor Wallace Reid, had died suddenly on 18-January-1923, leaving her with two small children. Neighbor William S Hart visited on Christmas day to do "his best to make Christmas seem natural to little Bill and Betty Reid." That was a good deed.

On New Year's Day, Hart attended the Rose Bowl Game, held for only the second time at the Rose Bowl, and saw Washington and Navy tie at 14-14. The game program was shaped like a football.
