Headlines and Trouble ' The " women were always there, and sometimes they brought headlines and trou ble. In 1943, in one of Holly wood's most sensational trials, he was acquitted of statutory rape charges brought by two teen-age girls, Peggy Larue Satterlee, 16, and Betty Han sen, 17. Miss Saterlee said they were intimate twice on his yacht, then the Sirocco, dur ing a cruise .to Catalina Is land, off the coast of Los Angeles. Miss Hansen, a Lincoln, Neb., high school girl who came to Hollywood seeking a movie career, said Flynn vio lated her in an upstairs bed room at a party in the home of British sportsman Fred McEvoy. She said that when he un dressed her, she thought he was just putting her to bed because she didn't feel too well. Flynn maintained he never went upstairs with her and scarcely spoke to her the entire night. During his trial he met the woman who was to be his sec ond wife-Nora Eddington, a clerk at the courthouse cigar counter. It was somewhat more quiet than his marriage to Miss Damita. Once Miss Damita chased Flynn and a 16-passenger transport plane half the length of Union Air Terminal in an angry attempt to collar him. Menaca to Aviation Flynn delighted in imbi bing. "I am omnibibulous-which means I can hold anything fluid," he once told his pal, the late Humphrey Bogart. Sometimes his imbibing and nightclubbing led to first- rate brawls. The most famous occurred when be met radio commenta tor Jimmy Fidler in a night club and punched him in the nose. Mrs. jiaier retaliated by stabbing Flynn in the ear with an oyster fork. ' - A judge made Flynn prom ise he would never punch Fidler again. When he married Miss Wy more, Flynn vowed to stay home. No matter what you do, you re wrong," he sighed. It you get up and whack some one you're called a brawler. If you dou'tt.somebody comes up and says you're yellow. So we stay home and pull the shades.". He went through money as if were water. . v "I'm worth about four mil lion bucks," he told an inter viewer last year. "But three years ago I , was stone broke and up to my ears in hock4 K TaUnt for Spending I have a great, talent for spending. The public expect ed me to be a playboy, arid I didn't want to let people down." He got his grounding from Olympian actor and imbiber John Barrymore. Once Jack stopped by my house for an evening of drink ing and stayed three weeks," said Flynn. The madcap, Tasmanian born actor laughted at his troubles. Once, Canadian sportsman Duncan . McMartin asked Flynn why the actor was su ing him. "Because it feels good to be a plaintiff instead of a de fendant," Flynn smiled. Wherepon McMartin slapped him in the swank El Morocco nightclub. Flynn, whose early years were spent sailing the South Pacific and hunting for gold, never stopped seeking adven ture. He fought in the Span ish Civil War and claimed to have been wounded helping Fidel Castro in the Cuban Revolution., When a Castro spokesman said Flynn never helped, the actor replied: Wound to Prove It "I think it's envy and ani mosity, and I have a wound to-prove it. Flynn was warned years ago about his bad heart af ter the Army and Navy turn ed him down in World War H but he refused to slow down. I never felt better in my life," he said. "If those docs know what they're talking about, I guess I'll just up and die someday." He joked about my wick ed, wicked ways" and once told Bogart: "You and I are the only two people left in Hollywood who knows how to have fun." And now there none.
