He too, was the Frank Wallace of the "Diamond LU" singing waiter role, according to the Dally News Interview with the bald-headed actor. "Mr. Wallace," said the agent, "cannot deny or affirm the report that he Is the husband of Mae West." Backiin Hollywood again Mlas West heard about this with little emotion. "Years ago," she said, "there was a Mae West playing burlesque tn the east, and only a few years back I had trouble stopping a burlesque queen In Pittsburg from using my name. Maybe Wallace married one of these, but believe me, no guy ever led me to the altar." Mae said she was as puzzled aa everyone else that the Milwaukee license listed the parents of the bride-to-be as Matilda Dllker and John West the name of her par ents. "I'd never hesitate to admit I had a husband if I had one. But I haven't." Mae added. "They tell me this licence has no signatures: that is, the names of the applicants were written in by the county clerk. I'm sorry about that. The bride's hand writing would corroborate my de nial. "No. I guess somebody's Just done me wrong." 30 BY MEDFORD DEALER Thirty Baldwin pianos, or half a carload of instruments that are be-, lng shipped to Medford and Eugene, were unloaded here today for the Baldwin piano shop.
