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."
