Finesilver, was ruled by New York Judgs William T. Collins as common-law widow of Arthur C. Mandel, wealthy machine company executive, and entitled to half of his estate of $250,000 plus $10,000.

(Ap Wirephoto.l Love Life Was So Complicated For This Bewildered Young Divorcee By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK UP) The girl was dark-haired and young and pert as a pony. There was a waggle to her body as she stepped into the street and hailed the cab. "Oh, oh! A good looker for a change," said the driver. He halted and for a moment considered opening the door for her. Then he thought, "Oh, hell, why spoil 'em when they're young? Give 'em some attention now, and whe'n they're old and grey they'll still think they deserve It." So the young girl opened the door herself, perched on the back seat, and said: "Welfare Island Ferry." As the cab started off, she said: "Say, how many thousand dol lars are there in a million dol lars?" , "Look,"" said the driver, "quit picking on me. If I knew how many thousands was In a million would I be driving a hack? Why do you want to know?" "Cause that old lady we just passed on the sidewalk has a mil lion dollars. Just Inherited It. She lives at the hotel where I work." The cab paused at a red light, and the driver asked: "Watcha goin' all the way to Welfare Island on such a hot day for?" "To see my daughter. She's got a bum heart really bum. Imag ine that! 1 And she's only four years old." "Tch, tch," clucked the driver. Romancing Chaotio She tossed her mane of mid night hair back from her damp forehead. She lit a cigaret syid said moodily, "Oh, hell!" "Watsa matter row?" "Oh, my love life's all fussed up." "How, little chicken?" "Oh, I've divorced my husband he's a piano player. And I've been going with a detective. But he's such a perfectionist. He's crazy jealous if I'm five minutes late for a date. I also got a dance instructor boy friend. He's more fun, but I can't depend on him. Sometimes he shows up for a date two davs late." "Uh, huh," said the driver. "Well, If you ask me ." at (he funeral and your first hus band will play the piano. Then "And then there's my bus driv er boy friend, Jie's really the sweetest," the girl went on. "And there's the embalmer he makes more money than any of 'em. Calls me up seventeen times a day." Marry the embalmer," said the taxi driver. "Follow the dough, kid." "But he gives me the creeps," she shuddered. "He Is so proud of his work he wants me to come down and watch him. And after ward I can't touch his hands or bear to let him kiss me." "Don't he wear rubber gloves?" "Yes, but" Pleasant Propriesy Voiced The driver mulled this over. As he halted near the ferry terminal, he said: "Honey, I've got It all figured out, Your detective is going to shoot you to death some evening while cleaning his gun. Your em balmer will fix you up pretty. Your dance instructor will dance the bus driver will take every body out to the cemetery for nothing. "And, sister, the whole darn thing won't cost you a nickel. What have you got to worry about?" The girl paid her fare and laughed uneasily. "I know you're only joking," she said, "but you're the second person who has told me the de tective will end up by shooting me." The cab driver watched as she walked away. There was a de fiant waggle to her body. "If I wasn't married and had three kids " he said. ill I m CLIPPER FIREWORKS Hotel Filled With Honeymooners Would Spell Ideal Guests, Claim Firecrackers.:. All Sizes All Kinds 0 Roman Candles 0 Atomic Wings 9 Rockets 0 Sparklers ... etc. Stands located on Community Hospital Grounds and across the street from The City Drive-In Market On Sale from June 20 to July 5 Benefit for Jr. High School Athletic Fund OPEN ALL HOURS By JANE EAD3 WASHINGTON If a hotel could be filled with honeymoon ers, it would "save at least the expense of a night watchman," says Col. C. C. Schiffeler, manag er of Washington's Raleigh Ho tel. Honeymooners are orderly, says Col. Schaffeler, whose fam ily for four generations has been in the hotel business. They ap- K roach the ideal as hotel guests, e says. "They are concerned that ev erything shall be Just right. They usually write far ahead for their reservations and want to be sure that there will be no slip-up. When the guests, as well as the management and employees, are careful, then there will be a minimum of mistakes and confu sion." Col. Scheffeler tells me honey mooners are good spenders. They have saved their money for the occasion, he points out, and they often spend the works before they leave. They are appreciative. They are potential future cus tomers. He says one couple who had spent their honeymoon at the hotel 40 years ago recently back for another visit. "If half of the estimated more I than a million couples who are ; married each year spend an av-1 eraee of 1250 in the orocess, the annual honeymoon business rises Into tne hundreds oi mil lion dollars," Col. Schiffeler says. Washington, he believes, is "one of the foremost honeymoon cities of the nation. He waxes roman tic about it as a mecca for new. lyweds. "Among Its beautiful parks, lovely promenades, stately mem orials and notable museums in the presence of so much that is rich with meaning to every American a honeymoon can be at once a joy, an inspiration and a dedication. Can't Escape Detection Newlyweds, despite the fond hope they'll arrive at the hotel looKing lust like any otner mar ried couple, usually have a hard time keeping their identity from notel men, especially the bell hops. Col. Schiffeler savs. "They're shy. The1 little lady's corsage, her new gown, the young man's bright new suit, all tend to let the cat out of the bag, "Any married couple might start out on a trip with some new clothes, but when the couple Is young and all of the clothes es pecially the shoes are new it doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to understand that the next thing to look for is a bright new wed ding ring on the lady's finger." Girl Frees Dogs, Battles Pair Of Dogcatchers BALTIMORE. July l.lM Two dogcatchers testified they stopped chasing canines and took out after a pretty 17-year-old girl when she loosed their day's bag. When they caught her, the dog catchers told Magistrate Herbert Franklin in Police Court, she proved a handful. One of them said he had some well-kicked shins. Miss Ruth V. Stewart made no denials. The two S. P. C. A. agents, she said, had picked up a dog be longing to a friend of hers. When she opened the cage of the truck to get her friend's dog, six others popped out, too. The magistrate dismissed charges of interfering with the dogcatchers in the "lawful per formance of their duty," dis orderly conduct, and assault by kicking. But if It happened aealn. he warned, the result might be jail. The SPCA agents said they rounded up six of the seven es capees. Whether Miss Stewart's friend's dog was the one that got away was not disclosed, . No Pay Needed To Get Contract, Truman States WASHINGTON. Julv l.-OP) President Truman declared Thursday that no businessman has to pay a go-between to get a government contract. The President made this asser tion at a news conference when he was questioned about the com plaint of one businessman who said he had been assessed five per cent for getting government busi ness. A New York Herald Tribune re porter brought up the matter, calling attention to stories first published in that newspaper. The President said he has al ways insisted, both in the White House and as chairman of the old Truman Committee, that no busi nessman has to pay anybody to get a contract with the govern ment.
