Earnings Were Being Saved for Coming of Age LOB ANOEX.ES, April it. (AP) Court action on Jackie Coogan's suit nm mn as nnnono acoountlnn by hla mother and stepfather ot his earn ings at a child etar waa postponed .today until May a. Superior Court Judge Emmet Wll aon ordered that the ttmporary re ceivership be continued, bo that an Inventory may be completed by May a. He also continued the temporary restraining order against Coogan's mother, and her second huaband. Arthur L. ncrnsteln. from disposing of property until (urther notice. The court ruled that the deposi tion of Mrs. Bernstein shall be com pleted by May a, and permission be granted to make any changes In her responses to questions In the earlier atage of her deposition. - lU'tly Was Warned. Betty Orable, tSOO-a-wect film dancer, told of Ignoring a warning by her mother-in-law that she was marrying a "pauper." If she married Jackie Coogan. As Betty described what ahe said were Mrs. Lillian Coognn Bernstein's efforts to break off her aon'a two year engagement, Wallace Beery, a friend of Jackie's kid days In the movies, milled to hla support In his legal fight for a share of his screen fortune. Jackie maintained, and Mrs. Bern stein denied, that his father. Jack Coogan, Sr., had Intended to give him his accumulated film earnings when he came of age. The elder Coogan was killed In an automobile accident In 1B3S, shortly before Jackie's 21st birthday. To "The Kid's" cause, Beery, a Teteran star, added hli word today, rubbing his Jaw In a characteristic meditative gesture as he spoke! Oltm lU'peoted. "Not once, but many times more than a dorn, I think Jack told me that he had never used or In tended to use a cent the boy earned. "Every penny the boy was making waa being put away and saved for him. Jack aald on several occasions. Be was careful at all times to Im press everyone that Jackie's money would be all hla and rightfully when the kid reached a man's es tate." Beerys reoollectlons were of a pe riod when he and Jackie played to gether In two pictures and ha be came a fast friend of the father. I shall be glad to help jacaje In any way possible so tnai nis father't wishea may be fulfilled." he added. Miss arable, who became coogan a bride last November, said that after their engagement waa announced in December, 1835, her mother received a telephone call from Jackie's mother. "If Betty thinks she la marrying a rich boy she la very much mis taken. Ha hasnt a cent. Jackie la a Tiauiierl" Miss Orable quoted Mrs. Bernstein aa aaylng. "I remember I had hardly met Jack when ahe began to Intimate that he had no money," the bride continued. "She would want" to argue about some trivial thing Just to put me In a bad light. I never could under stand nor attitude. Whether she thought I wouldn't make a good wife or whether she Just didn't want Jack to get married. I have no Idea. "But she certainly made me feel bsdly, even to the point of tears, sometimes. V "If Jock had no money, that made no difference to me. Jackie and I were In love and money didn't and doesn't mean a thing. It didn't make me give Jack up. and It never Willi" have more natural wonders than any place else In the world." START INSTALLATION Work wiw proffresslnu today on In Ataltatton of the United Btntes army' new-type radio station on crater Lake highway. Transmlulon equipment wa toeing Installed by the air corpa crew (.te noned at the municipal airport under supervision of Sut. Kenneth B. Al mond, technician who arrived here by plane Tuesday from Hamilton field, San Rafael, oallf. It waa expected that the installa tion would requlro about 10 days.

They told Human Officer RumwII Ferro that If the dogs and rugs match, shedding hair would not ahow. YELLOWSTONB PARK, Mont. (UP) The "fools' faces" were gone long ago, but their names still adorn public places here, along with pen ciled poetry, tax token, and marks of vandalism. Visitors annually enter the park, try to get their names In as many different places as poestble, throw logs In the geysers to see them blow up, and take pieces of rare formations for the mantlepleces back home. Names with the date 1880 still may be seen beneath the thin crusts of geyserlte nature uses to hide her shame, many of them in the most beautiful formations of the valley. In some cases, entire geyser cones have disappeared, blown out by n load of rock or logs tossed In to amuse the tourist who demands tlon, or taken home In small chunks to prove to the neighbors that "we really were there." Shining tax tokens are thrown into geyser pools for no apparent reason, and park attendants fish them out at the risk of damaging delicate formations. Vandalism Is nothing new. As early aa 1673, one year after appointment of N. P. Lang ford as first park super intendent. It had become objec tionable. "The- parapets of sinter of the 'Bee Hive'." he wrote to the then secretary of the interior, "have been much defaced by visitors to the park." He even suggested leading parts M the park so leasees would hire protection to safeguard their interests. A description typical of today's vandals was written by Capt. William Ludlow of the United States army engineers more than SO years ago. "The only blemishes on this ar tistic handi'.ork," he reported, "have been occasioned by the rude hand of man. The ornamental work about the crater and pools of Faithful had been broken and defaced In the most prominent places by visitors and peb bles were Inscribed In pencil with the names of the most undistinguished persons. Such practices should be stopped at once." That was more than a half-century ago, and the practices haven't been stopped yet. Park directors, however, find con solation in the attitude of the ma jority of visitors, who report van dalism and frequently use force to make ambitious name carvers and sample-getters stop. And, as Joe Joffe, assistant to the superintendent, puts It, "We still Menus of the Day By Mrs. Alexander George Sunday Breakfast: Grapefruit Juice ' Ham Omelet Cream Sauce Popovers Butter Coffee Dinner: Ptult Salad French Dressing Roast Veal Browned Potatoes Gravy Buttered Lima Beans RMla Currant Jam Strawberry Sherbet Orange Delights Coffee Supper: Apples Popped Corn Chocolate FmUje Orange Delights J4 cup butter 1 oup granulated sugar a egg yolks 1 cup cold water 1 teaspoon orange extract teaspoon lemon extract teaspoon almond extract teaspoon salt a4 cups pastry flour I teaspoons baking powder 3 egg whites, beaten Cream butter until soft.

(UP)--ft ost the city 82B.OOO but now the art museum has a complete room which originally was a part of the convent of Santa Isabel in Toledo. Spain. The room alone without the fur nishings is valued at that figure. It is more than 500 years old and represents the Hlspano-Moresque art of the late fifteenth century. It was transported piece by piece in largo packing boxes from Venice, Italy, where It was bought from Adolf Loewl. Three months have been spent In reassembling It for the museum and it has Just been opened to the public. The rarity of this room Increases dally as Spain Is torn by war. Some of the best examples of this type art are being reduced by the fire of cannon and bombings. Nearly all that survive are In public buildings In Spain and cannot be removed from that country. The celling of th e room Is of geometric arrangement, consisting of small pieces of wood and featuring a design of an eight -pointed star studded with silvery metallic deco rations. The Moorish fondness for running water Is noted in a marble fountain placed In the center of the room. This fountain alone cost $3,600 and Is probably of Mediterranean or Turkish origin. Below the celling Is a frieze of vari-colorcd wood with knights and soldiers depicted In bright greens and orange on a background of red dish-brown. There La a deep wall band of lace-like plaster work, an Immense plaster archway weighing four tons. Huge double wooden ceremonial doors with a 10-polnt star design swing In the entrance. The room la 16 feet wide, 49 feet long and has a high celling. ' To carry out the Spanish theme, the room has been hung with paint ings of the period from the museum's collection.

FIJI. (AP) Pigs and dogs are fighting It out on several islands of the FIJI (roup, with white settlers the chief victims. On Taveunl and Vanua Levu the -ffiid pigs eat the commercial coco nut crop, uproot young trees and keep the settlers busy trying to exterminate them. Settlers on these islands favor breeding a race of wild dogs to keep the pigs down, but from Vita Levu comes warning that thla merely creates another problem. There, rov ing bands of wild dogs are extremely troublesome. - Geysers attain their highest devel opment In Iceland, New Zealand and the Yellowstone park. HISTORIC CARSON CITY CARSON CITY, Nev.
