"He flew here to see that they are properly taken care of. He "is primarily interested in the kids."

The actor tele phoned Miss Hayward s doctor, Stanley Imerman, and then told a crowd of waiting reporters "The doctor says it is not advis able for anyone to see her be cause of her emotional stress Mrs. Barker is not to see any .one, not even her mother, until she is fully recovered. Barker then was driven to Miss Hayward's home where he visited his sons in their upstairs bedroom. The children had learn ed -of their mother's attempted suicide when someone threw a newspaper on the lawn. But the actress' mother, Mrs. Ellen Mar rener, said the boys did not ap pear upset. Surprised By Attempt Friends of the 35-year-old film star were surprised at her suicide attempt. Miss Hayward was known as being moody and emotional, but recently, friends said, "she seemed gay, more out going and happier, and she was very excited about her future movie' plans." They pointed out she apparent ly did not intend to die because she first hysterically telephoned her mother to hint at a death try, Mrs. Merrener then telephoned police, who found the actress un conscious on her living room floor. Barker's attorney said the cou pie fought Sunday "over whether to extend Barker's visitation rights five minutes longer." He said Miss Hayward was angry because Barker wanted to ac company her and the children to church. Barker had complained that Miss Hayward won't speak to him, nor allow her servants to, when he picks up their sons on his visitation days.
