(UP1) Burton Divorced; Expected To Marry Elizabeth Taylor Soon MEXICO CITY (UPI) Friends predicted today Eliza beth Taylor will soon divorce Eddie Fisher to marry Richard Burton, whose wife Sybil got a Mexican divorce Monday. "I don't think Liz and Burton are going to wait very long," one friend said, "ft looks as if they will be married soon." Burton and Mrs. Burton ar ranged details of a property set tlement and custody of 'Ivir two children before she filed (or divorce in Puerto Vallarta, the tiny Mexican fishing village where he recently completed work on a movie. Miss Taylor had no part in the movie, but she accompan ied Burton to Puerto Vallarta and was on the set almost ev ery day, keeping him company. They shared a villa. Went to Village Burton's lawyer, Aaron frosch, of New York, went to the village to represent him in civil court when the divorce was granted. Burton also was represented by a Mexican at torney, as was Mrs. Burton. Frosch said Mrs. Burton charged that her husband treat ed her "cruelly and inhuman ly" and said he was "in the constant company of another woman." Miss Taylor was not men tioned by name in the court pro ceedings. The decree gives Mrs. Burton custody of the two children, Katherine. 6. and Jessica, 4, but assures the father of free visit ing rights "at all times." Mrs. Burton also received the Burton home in Geneva, Switz erland, a trust fund for the two children and a substantial set tlement for herself. The attor ney said Burton retained "a fund out of their community property." "There was no difficultv in ! ment, Frosch said. I He said he prepared the di- , vorce settlement, but that both ; parties consulted other attor- j neys at his insistence. I Mrs. Burton, who has been ! living in New York, is expected to leave soon for Geneva. Miss Taylor has said on sev eral occasions that she wants to marry Burton, but he has re fused to slate positively what his intentions are in the mat ter.

At 30 I was a widow with two babies. I mar ried Aaron who was a 52-year-old divorcee at the time. Now we're all eleven years older. My son is 12 and my daughter, 14, ages when they need a fath er's influence most of all. What happens'.' Aaron avoids them as much as possible, tells them he doesn't want to "butt in" and that what they do is "none of his business." He's failing me. Aaron .1. I'd like to see any man of 6.1 kick a football around for a 12-year-old boy! I'm no health exhibit, just a tired salesman. I certainly can't join my stepdaughter in the twist, not with my arthritis! They're very close to their moth er and 1 don't know where I fit in the picture. If I say no, I'm mean. If I say yes, I'm spoiling them. So I shut up. w The C'mini'il: Since Aaron is so age-conscious, we'll share a news item from Nepal where a law now prohibits marriage of people more than 20 years apart in age. But we'll bet that such a law wouldn't have stopped Aaron eleven years ago. At that time, he and Muriel must have considered the plusses in their May-December union to have for outweighed the minuses, question marks, and exclama tion points. We believe they still do. but they must be underlined. These youngsters are lucky to have a parent of ripened wisdom at hand, one with long experi ence and philosophical perspec tive. It's up to Muriel to build Aaron up as an enviable father figure, one whom other teen ager would treasure. As such he needn't strain the old sacroiliac being a "pal." He can achieve that status by being a compan ion, a "consultant," a counselor. More good "parenting" is ef fected during a leisurely stroll, or a trip to a pretzel factory, than in weeks of do-and don't directives from an easy chair. PLANT 11.M1.KI SALEM tUPD Gov. Mark Hatsfield Tuesday hailed an an nounced expansion of the Wey erhaeuser Co. plant at Spring field as "another indication of confidence in our economy in Oregon." WASHINGTON (UPP - The autopsy performed on President Kennedy was reported today to show tnai tie was killed by the second bullet that struck him. but could have survived the first wound. The Washington Post, in a , dispatch signed by its medical I writer Nate Haseltine, said this was the "as yet unofficial" find ing of the team of pathologists : who performed the autopsy at Bethesda Naval Hospital on the night of Nov. 22 after the Prcsi- dent's body was brought back ' to Washington from Dallas. The hosnital. the Pentagon !and the White House refused to comment on the Post story Tuesdav night. White House Press Secretary Pierre Salinger, asked lo comment on the re port, said. "I'm not going to discuss it." i Struck in Shoulder j The pathologists were report ed lo have found that the first bullet struck the Thief Execu tive high in the back of the shoulder, about 5 to 7 inches I below the line of his collar and j became imbedded deep in his i shoulder. i This was said to have caused i "a hematoma, a pooling of the j blood, inside the neck and shoulder muscles, but no criti- cal harm." according to the Post report. The post mortem examination was said to show that Ihe sec ond bullet which struck the President tore the right rear portion of his head so destruc tively that "it was completely incompatible with life," accord ing lo the newspaper. It was a deflected fragment from this second bullet that passed out through Kennedy's throat, just above Ihe collar line, giving rise to speculation that the President may have been shot from two angles, the newspaper said. The autopsy seemed to end speculation about the angle from which Ihe two bullets were fired. II said both bullets struck the President from behind. Ac cused assassin Lee Harvey Os wald allegedly fired shots al Kennedy and Texas Gov. John B. Connnlly from his vantage point in the Texas School Book Depository Building just aflcr the presidential motorcade passed on Ihe street below. Because of the throat wound, questions had been raised as to whether Oswald's bullet could have inflicted it. The pathologists were quoted as saying thul the second bul let inflicted such irreparable damage that such a wound is normally considered as causing I instant death. However, doctors at Dallas' Parkland Hospital re ported earlier that they noted some outward manifestation of life when the President was brought into the emergency room. Dr. .lames Carrico, a resident surgeon at Parkland who first examined the President, said Kennedy was on his back from the time he arrived at the hos pital until the body was covered with a sheet and removed, pre venting any search for a back wound. Carrico earlier had reported that the President's eyes were open but the pupils were dilated and apparently sightless when he was brought into the hospi tal. Such a condition is often called a "death stare." S Ruby's Lawyers I Seek Psychiatry DALLAS (L'PD-Jack Ruby's lawyers arc fighting lo move '.the strip club owner from jail to a psychiatrist's couch to seek evidence that Ruby was insane when he shot and killed Lee Harvey Oswald. A writ of habeas corpus was filed with criminal court Judge Joe B. Brown Monday that charged Ruby was held illegal ly without bond and that he could not get "proper psychi atric treatment" in jail. Disl. Atty. Henry Wade prom ised a pitched fight to keep Ruby in jail, because he wilt seek the death penally on Ihe murder with malice charge. He said such a charge was not bondable. Ruby was expected to appear in court for the hcarinR Monday.
