the services of Miss Bayes were to be of q
unique character, and that clause proved
an important point in deciding the case
Miss Bayes and Norworth left ZiegfeId's
employ before the end of the engagement
Justice OGorman said in his decision:
This contract which has been source
of annoyance and pecuniary loss TO all
concerned, has been caused by the defend

legation imposed by contract Their con-
duct has been entirely without legal justi-
fcation and in disregard of the letter and
the spirit il the provisions of the agreement
OF April H. 1919. Their claim that the
plaintiff discharged them Is not sustained"

October. At that time he said he wished
his daughter, Ethel, to sail for Southamp-

the pier and also aboard the AdriatiC.
The sudden appearance on the Hamburg
American pier of a young couple seeking
transportation On the President Grant

their tickets by check. and the name signed
to the check was Carver, the same name
given in booking passage.
A friend OF Breen's said last night that he
