Frances Farmer Sentenced
For Probation Violation
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan.
, 14 UP) France! Farmer, once
glamorous screen actress, was
sentenced to 180 days in Jail
today for violation of drunk
, driving probation, and in a wild
moloo as she was taken from
court knocked down one officer
but was finally subdued by
others. . . .
k "Have you ever had a broken
heart?" she screamed at- a ma
tron as sho was carried to a
cell. '
' ; It was tho only hint to the
reason behind a wild 24 hours,
marked by a fight in a hotel;
which preceded her arrest in a
fashionable Hollywood hotel. '
' "Since you appeared in this
court last October 24," Police
Judge Marshall Hlcksori asked
her as she was brought before
him this morning, "Have you
had anything to, drink?";,
, Her answer was a. shout:
, "Yes', . I drank everything I
could get, Including benzedrine."
Of the hotel incident, the
judge queried:
, "Were you fighting at the
Hollywood Knickerbocker Tues
day night?"
"Yes," she replied, "I was. I
was fighting for my country
and mvself."
. "You wore advised," the
judge declared, "that If you
took one drink of liquor or
tailed to rje a law-onming citi
zen ...
!s"What do you expect me to
do?" tho actress interrupted. "I
get liquor In my orange Juice
In my coffee. Must I starve to
death to obey your laws?"
Tho judge silenced her to
pronounce sentence.
The scene In the matron's of
fice took place after she. was
refused permission to use a tele
phone. Tho sentence '. climaxed a
career which began in Holly
wood six years ago, after the
Seattle girl, a university grad
uate, had made a trip to Russia
as roward for winning a home
town newspaper's ' popularity
contest. ,
It was no movie glamor girl
who faced the bench, however.
Her light blue suit was mussed,
her blonde hair straggling, her
eyes wero red. She had spent
tho night In jail after her arrest
In n fashionable' Hollywood
hotel. ; . ," '.
