}}Francis A. De Sales (March 23, 1912 – September 25, 1988)[1] was an American actor. He was known for his roles on two early television series: as police Lieutenant Bill Weigand on the CBS and then NBC drama Mr. and Mrs. North (1952–1954) and as Sheriff Maddox in the syndicated western Two Faces West (1960–1961). In the meantime, he guest-starred on scores of other television programs, often in law-enforcement roles. He appeared four times as Ralph Dobson on the ABC sitcom The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet and in five episodes in different roles on CBS's Perry Mason.[2]

His first screen role was as Harold Faller of the Huntington Advertiser newspaper of Huntington, West Virginia, telecast on NBC's The Big Story, a monthly anthology series about courageous journalists. After The Big Story, De Sales was cast as the police contact in Mr. and Mrs, North, starring Richard Denning as Jerry North, a publisher, and Barbara Britton as his wife, Pamela North. The couple seemed to stumble on an unsolved murder each week. The program had originated on radio, based on stories of Richard and Frances Lockridge.[4] Among the twenty-five episodes in which De Sales played a major role are entitled "Climax", "Mask of Hate", "The Girl in Cell 13", "The Placid Affair", and "Busy Signal".[2]

On Two Faces West, De Sales starred as Sheriff Maddox with Charles Bateman, who played dual roles, as Marshal Ben January and twin brother, physician Rick January. The series was set about Gunnison, Colorado.
