Princess Margaret
May Wed on Birthday
London, Oct. 21 (U.B Princess
Margaret and the American girl
with whom she shares her dates
were back in London today for
a winter social whirl that may
bring wedding bells for one or
both of them.
Mayfair gossips already were
speculating whether Sharman
Douglas, 21-year-old daughter
of U.S. Ambassador Lewis Doug
las, Is engaged secretly to the
Earl of Westmoreland, who also
I considered In the running for
Margaret's hand.
Friends of Sharman say it
isn't so, however. She and West
moreland are the "best of
friends," but there is no engage
ment at least yet, they say.
Margaret, youngest daughter
of King George VI and the
world's most eligible girl, also
is free of romantic entangle
ments as the social season near.".
But the odds in Mayfair are
three to two that she will an
nounce her engagement before
spring.
Just who the lucky man will
be, no one will venture. How
ever. King George has said that
Margaret may marry at 20 her
20th birthday Is next Aug. 21
and It Is known that she is eager
to take advantage of the royal

His Height
Saved Him
Detroit, Oct. 21 MV- Arthur
Gerish's six-feet-six of height
saved him in a tight spot.
He was digging a ditch yes
terday and the walls caved in.
He was all but buried just
up to his chin.
Firemen, police and fellow
workers dug him out.
Gerish, 21, brushed himself
off, said thanks to all, finished
the day's work, and went to
his night classes at the Uni
versity of Detroit.

Hurls Charge at
Child Movie Star
Hollywood, Oct. 21 (U.R Child
film star Margaret OBnens
stepfather Thursday accused the
highly-paid moppet of wreck
ing his marriage by throwing a
tantrum next door to his Palm
Beach hotel suite on his wed
ding night.
In a deposition filed in the
contested divorce suit of Mrs.
Gladys O'Brien Sylvio, Band
leader Don Sylvio said his bride
and her daughter left him to
fly to Boston the morning after
their much-publicized marriage.
Sylvio charged that his wife
sent her business manager, Al
Blum instead of visiting him
herself when they returned to
Florida three months later.
Blum told him, he said, that
Mrs. Sylvio wanted an annul
ment and said the decree could
be obtained easily if there had
been fraud in the marriage or
it had not been consummated.
"I told him there had been
no fraud and that the marriage
certainly had been consummat
ed," Sylvio's deposition said. "I
couldn't believe it. I broke
down and could not speak. I
cried like a baby."
After the business agent sug
gested Sylvio accept $3000 to
agree to ending the marriage,
the bandleader said, he answer
ed he was "not interested in
money. AH I know is that I
love my wife."
He also denied Mrs. Sylvio's
statement that he demanded a
$200 weekly allowance, a new
car and a house for his mother
immediately after the wedding
Sylvio quoted Margaret as
saying when the marriage was
suggested to her:
"Oh, no, Mommy. No. I like
Don all right, but I want you
to wait until I am 16 years old."

easements, and also because of
doubt about legality of paying
for it with sewer funds.
To meet the situation this win
tcr the city council authorized
the purchase of four pumps and
a sewer cleaning machine. It
also voted to plan a thorough
drainage problem, Including fi
nancing, for next year. Plans
are to be made during the winter
so they can be acted on next
spring.
The north Salem people, how
ever, want to make sure some
thing is done this winter. Slentz,
who lives at 1245 North 18th
and has an implement business
at 30 Lana avenue, believes
project might be the business of
the state and the county as well
as the city, and information
about that is one of the things
he wants from the state engi
neer. Also active in getting people
interested is Mrs. H. J. Low
miller, 3460 Donald way, who
said it is a mass movement by
the whole north Salem community.
The residents are being assist
ed by Aldermen Tom Armstrong
and David O'Hara, whose wards
are in the district that feels dis
tress from water overflow. They
have told residents of their
wards that they will help them
arrange a conference with city
officials, and it is possible a con
ference may be had next week.
O'Hara was critical of the city
administration for not applying
sewer money to the project as
first voted by the council. This
action was rescinded at the next
meeting because of doubt about
its legality.
"It was rescinded in about
three minutes," O'Hara said,
"while 20 minutes was given a
parking meter salesman, and the
city wasn't in the market for
parking meters."

Mrs. Perkins of Brisbane
Sees Veterans at Silverton
Silverton, Oct. 21 With her ever-present address books bulg
ing with more than 800 addresses of GIs, Mrs. Amy Perkins from
Brisbane, Australia, is a visitor here.
This is why Mrs. Perkins, lovingly called "Ma Perkins," by her
boys, happened to be a local guest:
Mrs. Frank M. Porter (Bessie-
Bentson) has a brother, Bill.
Bill has a wife, a former Aus
tralian girl, niece of Mrs. Perk
ins. En route to practically every
section of the United States in
search of her family of boys,
guided by their addresses, Mrs.
Perkins is using Mrs. J. A.
Starr's Salem home address,
1455 Marion street, Salem, Ore.,
to which her travel letters are
to come and be saved for her.
Mrs. Starr is the mother of
Bess and Bill.
The distinguished woman left
a few days ago, south. She has
letters from every state in the
union urging her to visit at
homes of Australia-homesick lads
who came to her spacious home
in Brisbane, always welcome for
a night or longer, for meals, and
touch of home contacts that
meant much to them. She will
see many of them.
Mrs. Perkins said that two
doors were always open at her
home for the incoming and the
outgoing guests.
One Silverton young man, Don
Palmer, now in Eugene and not
knowing of Mrs. Perkins' Sil
verton and Salem visit until he
saw the story in the Capital
Journal, too late to meet her
again, is terribly disappointed.
Don was one of her favorite,
visitors in Australia. The disap
pointment was two-fold, accord
ing to Mrs. Perkins.
Mrs. Porter held almost con
tinuous open house at her North
