North Adams, Mass.-The Rev. Edwin T.

Then it be gins to scratch up the neighbor's garden and wake up people early in the morning." London-Frank Sinatra, in commenting before an audi ence of London notables of rumors that he will marry Lady Beatty: "According to the newspapers here I've been married more times than King Farouk and I'm not even as fat as he is." .
