WIFE'S SACRIFICE
Duchess Offers to Divorce
Husband so He May Be King
By JEAN DeGANDT
Paris, Dec. 21 U.R) The commoner wife of the eldest son of
the late King Alfonso offered him a divorce today in the hope
it would help win him the throne of Spain.
The Duchess of Segovia, blonde and beautiful opera singer,
called a press conference to announce her willingness to give up
"the man I love," Don Jaime,
Duke of Segovia, 41.
When she tearfully repeated
her proposal to Don Jaime an
hour later, he told her:
"I won't take it seriously."
"He loves me so much," she
said. "We have been so happy
. . . We have never quarreled.
But I know he loves Spain and
if he gets the chance to go back
CAN YOU IMAGINE?
Brando Was in 'Streetcar
But Fetid Hollywood Irks Him
By VIRGINIA MAC PHERSON
Hollywood, Calif., Dec. 21 Marlon Brando packed up his
1 T-shirts and blew out of Hollywood today. The movie queens he
left behind still are scratching their peroxided locks.
They can't figure this lad out. His football build . . . his Greek
god profile . . . his lady-killer look . . . had many a local female
a-twitter.and hopeful.
But Brando couldn't be both
ered. He was here two months,
but he refused to play the "Hol
lywood game" every movie
newcomer is told he must fol
low religiously if he wants to get
any place in the Hollywood side
show. As far as the young Broadway
star, who hit the bright lights in
"A Streetcar Named Desire," is
concerned, this particular side
show isn't worth it. He's on his
way back to the legitimate stage,
in New York as far from Holly
wood as possible."
"This town and everything in
it is greatly over-rated," Bran
do snorted. "The women are
spoiled snobs. I can't tell you
about the parties. I wouldn't
go to any.
ACROSS TOWN Ol
KS, ACROSS THI NATION
'I'm oh a $150 monthly al
lowance. I sent the rest of the
salary Stanley Kramer paid me
for 'The Men' to my father to
invest for me. You can't live
very high on $150.
"What did I do for fun? Well
I went swimming in the Pacific
at 3 a.m. In the raw, once.
Caught cold. And I rode the roller-coaster
on the Santa Monica
pier."
Therefore the ladies are puz
zled. But the male stars aren't.
We'd bet anything they're even
jealous of this gent who refuses
to squeeze into the tired, old
routine.
to his native land, he will be
the happiest man in the world.
"After all, I am not a princess.
I have no royal blood. I am a
commoner. Love must be ready
to make the great sacrifices.1
If the duke accepts her offer,
she said, the formal proceed
ings should not be difficult. The
church never has recognized the
duke's divorce from his first
wife or his marriage to the
present duchess.
Don Jamie, then a deaf mute,
renounced his right of accession
to the throne 16 years ago in
favor of his younger brother,
Don Juan.
Now cured of the ailment,
Don Jaime disclosed recently
that he is seeking an agreement
with Generalissimo Francisco
Franco that would restore the
Spanish monarchy and put Don
Jaime on the throne.
Negotiations between Franco
and Don Juan for a restoration
of the monarchy were broken off
recently.

First Woman Ambassador
Welcomed in Denmark
Copenhagen, Denmark. Dec. 21 U.R Denmark gave Mrs. Eu
genie Anderson of Red Wing. Minn., a rousing welcome Tuesday
when she arrived with her husband and two children to start
serving as America's first woman ambassador.
Bands played, flags flew, and diplomacy scored several separate
triumphs when. Mrs. Anderson-
debarked from the Jutlandia,
which brought her from the
United States.
The housewife turned politi
cian turned diplomat plainly
was pleased with her reception.
And plainly it left her artist
husband, John, bewildered.
"This is a most extraordinary
experience. he said, it was. nis
wife was the object of ringing
cheers, of hordes of handshak
ers, and of an upsurge of joy on
the part of the Danish-American
colony which welcomed her.
John P. Anderson, a mere hus
band, stood in the background,
walked down the gangplank last
and was already deep in the pro
cess of being an ambassador's
husband.
That is not to say that the hus
band was ignored. Not at all. He
got his share of welcoming, and
that was where diplomacy won
out. The Danes, the Americans,
and Mrs. Anderson herser saw
to it that he would feel right at
home in his unique role. Or tried
to..
Mrs. Anderson also steered a
diplomatic course with report
ers. She liked Cooking, but hadn't
lasted Danish food. She enjoyed
the trip over. She expected to
like it here.
After the welcoming cere
mony, Mrs. Anderson's party
drove off to Rydhave, the am
bassador's residence north of
Copenhagen.
Mrs. Anderson will present
her credentials to King Fredcr-
ik Thursday.
Vaeation Trip Starts

companied by Kent Crawley,

trip. They expect to be gone

at Sinclair, Wyo. Arnold will

Mingle in Romance
Long Beach, Calif.. Dec. 21
(U.m A 42-year-old Christmas
card from an old beau brought
renewed romance to retired
policewoman Kthel W.
Thompson, 63.
Mrs. Thompson, widow nf
Los Angeles and Long Beach
newspaperman Fred Thomp
son, said she forgot about Ben
F. Corlev for more than 40
years until she was browsing
through old cards and came
across one from him dated
1907.
On it, the former Arkansas
resident wrote, "I hope to
hear from you soon."
Capital Journal. Salem, Ore., Wednesday, Dec. 21, 194915
Memories stirred by the
card led Mrs. Thompson to
write Corley. Then they ar
ranged a Kansas City reunion
in October, their first meeting
since 1900.
It didn't take the patient
sweetheart, now 67 and a St.
Joseph, Mo., cafe operator,
long to propose.
They will be married
Christmas day, 1949.
The weasel is yellowish brown
in summer and white in winter
when its fur is known as ermine.

call
Please remember many calls will be delayed
Here are some facts you should know . . , Christmas Eve
and Day is everybody's favorite time for calling the folks
back home... and we'll do our level best to put through as
many calls as we possibly can. But in spite of all we can
do, lines will be crowded... calls will stack up... and some
of our telephone customers are bound to be disappointed.
We'll be on duty to serve you
Every available switchboard will
be in service. Thousands of tele
phone people will be on the job
all through the Christmas week
end, doing their best to get calls
through so that you may talk to
friends and relatives. We'll be
able to take care of a large part
of the demand for long distance
service because of careful, ad
vance planning and special cir
cuits. But the fact is: Long Dis
tance lines simply can't carry the
tremendous volume of traffic
originating at Christmas by far
our busiest time of the year. We
expect to be asked to put through
more than three times as many
calls between distant points as on
a normal day.
Best time for greeting calls
Most calls before or after the
Christmas weekend will go
through while you hold the line.
But during this weekend there
are apt to be delays, and we may
not be able to reach your party at
all. You may be sure that thou
sands of Long Distance opera
tors will be doing their very best
all through the Holidays.
