He is more than six feet tall, with ex- tremely broad shoulders, and with a very lithe and athletic figure. He has strong, well-defined features and a chsrm of manner that made him popular. In describing how he happened to sign an American contract, he created surprises as well as merri- ment by expiaining that he crashed his automobile into another man's car on the Champs Elysee several weeks ago, and the excited owner of the car hit, proved to be the Paris manager of the Famous Players-Lasky Corpora- tion. Thus it was, he said, that this dramatically begun acquaintance re- sulted in the signing of the contract. Mr. de Roche’s first American pic- ture will be as leading man for Dorothy Dalton in “The Law of the Lawless.” Following this he will have the stellar role in “The Spanish’ Cavalicr.” a part originally intended for Rodolph Valentino.
