Gardner, attractive blonde nurse,
today filed suit for annulment of
her marriage to train-robber Roy
Gardner, Alcatraz federal prison In

to make good his boast no Jail could
hold him very long. .
The 39-year-old nurse stuck by

alty began to waver when 18 months

Alcatraz' Isolation, the swift cur
rents of San Francisco bay which
sweep around It, and the elaborate
system of patrol with sharpshooting
guards In towers along the high wall
make it a practically escape-proof
prison;
The woman whose roan had brok
en from McNeil and had escaped
four other times from custody ap
parently realized he couldn't get out
of Alcatraz for In her suit, filed in
the Napa superior court, she pointed
out that Gardner would be conAned
'in Alcatraz prison until 1961."
Gardner would be 78 at that time
If he survived the long imprison
ment. Mrs. Gardner Is 39 now, her
convict husband 52.
The suit was filed through her at
torney Immediately after Mrs.
Gardner had checked out at the
Napa state hospital, where she is
employed, and had fled Into seclu
sion to avoid publicity.
There were reports a new romance
had entered her life, devoted for 20
years to one of the 'nation's most
desperate men.

closing.
W. C. Harding, secretary of the

said:
"We are unalterably In favor of
closing the river for two, three, four
or five years. The fish aren't in the
river. They become less each year."
Harding said there may be other
causes for salmon depletion, but In
his opinion 90 per cent was caused
by commercial fishing. He urged the
commission to close the river tor
several years and give it a trial.
Frank L. Taylor of the Reedsport
chamber of commerce, said that the
fish run in cycles' and that last year
the commercial fishermen made the
greatest catch for many years. Tay
lor said: "Why not build up, instead
of tearing down," urging more funds

fees go toward fisheries, he pointed
