Baco Baby Award
To the Heidezs1a,2lls
Upheld by Court
Justice Whitaker Susyains
Findings of Referee in
Giving Nine-Montlns-Old
Chill to the Father

The final chapter in the legal fight of
Miss Marie Teresa Baco, of 239 West
12Sth Street, for the custody of her
nine-months- old baby was written yes
terday by Justice Whitaker who sus-
tanned findings Of former Justice John
". Golf, as referee, that the infant
should not be returned to the mother.
Under the decision Of the court the
child, a girl, will be in the custody o.
Professor Karl De Heidemann. who has
acknowledged parentage OF the baby,
and his wife, Mrs. Laura B. De Heide-
mann.
Miss Baco is a native of Porto Rico.
Her family and the family OF Mrs. De
Heidemann owned adjoining planta-
tons When the young woman came
to New York she lived at the De IIcide
mann home. The De Heidemanns had
no children, so that when the baby was
born, instead Of causing breach be
tween the husband and wife, Mrs. De
Eeidemann insisted that she be per-
mitted to rear the child She and her
husband took charge Of the baby to the
exclusion of Miss Baco, who brought
the habcas corpus proceedings, now de-
cided against her
From the facts disclosed by the evil
dence in this case said Justice Whit
aker, II am strongly Of the opinion
that not only the interests Of the child
but also of the mother viii in the end
be letter served by awarding the Gus
tody of the child to the respondents,
Mr.. and Mrs De Heidcmann.
The grief Of the mother at parting
with the custody of her child neces,
sarly will be assuaged when the
mother finally realizes that the i'm
mediate and ultimate happiness Of he.
child has been provided for by virtue
Ct the decree of this court awardin :,
the custody to the De Heidemanns.
"The unselhsh love for her child will
overcome the selfish desire to retai7
her when she finally realizes that the
child's comfort and happiness have
been established. The referee has mada
legal, reasonable, just and humane
disposition Of the question, and the
court approves Of the report"

Jcers and Cheers Greet
Rivals as Actors Ballot
Equity Association Election at the Aston Marked by
Near Riot; Wilson, in Retiring, Assails Meth
odst Church for Enforcing Ban Against Theater

The Actors Equity Association
showed yesterday that it could make
as we'll as take every variety Of noise
known to the transforming profession.
Jeers such as would shrivel the black
est villain of melodrama and applause
such as no actor ever got before from
1000 rivals marked the gathering of
the association at the Hotel Aston
The occasion was the election Of Of
ficers.
If the election had been determined
by noise, the tumult and the shouting
for John Emerson probably would have
settled it, but the association
has constitution and bylaws
and tellers and legal advisers and
an executive council, so they were
obliged to cast written ballots. There
is no telling how long it Will take to
sort them out and find the winners.
Adjourn Until Monday
The meeting adjourned until ~
o'clock Monday at the headquarters Of
the association, when it is hoped the
tellers will have something to report
Emerson and the organiza ton ticket
have been elected, the result probably
will be contested by Wilton Lackayc,
the opposition candidate.
The complaints of the Lackaye fac
ton are based on the fact that the
executive council decreed, after con-
sultation with it's legal adviser, ex-
Vice-Chancellor Lane, that the votes
cast at the annual meeting should be
the official votes of the organizations
and that those who have voted by mail
previous to the annual meeting must
vote again at the annual meeting. Only
n of bo i
meeting would be permitted to vote by
mail.
This decision was announced by
Frank Gilmore, executive secretary Of
the association, and further elucidated
by Paul n. Turner, counsel. A Wig
orous protest was entered by Nh.
Lackaye.
His case was championed by many
members from the floor, particularly
one earnest little man, who declared he
haA voted by mail already and did not
wish to vote again.
"Well, it won't hurt you to vote
again, will ito" cried Mr.. Turner.
Riot Narrowly Averted
"This is a shame 1t is done against
Mr. Lackaye," the member Protested.
Shouts Of put him out!" and make
him take that back" came from Emer-
sonites, shaking their fists and start
ing toward the Lackaye side Of the
house.
Francis Wilson, retiring president
of the association. after much pound
ing with his gavel and many pleas to
the members to take their seats, pre-
vented the threatened riot He be-
sought the rival factions to be good
sportsmen" and abide by the decision
of the ballot boxes
They're trying to make Tammany
Hall look like a Christian Endeavor
meeting" Mr.. Lackaye declared after

the meeting. "They are using that old
political trick, trying to make fac
tional fight look like fight on the
organization. | am not attacking the
organization. Pm just as good men,
Der Of it as anybody and expect to
stay so.
"The retiring president wants US to
be good sportsmen and after this is
over to accept the decision like good
sportsmen. That's all vtry we'll if they
play like good sportsmen and appoint
tellers who are sportsmen.
II am not satisfied with the tellers
they have appointed. They say that
Brandon lyman is my man. under
stand that he is neutral The other
two are Emerson men Charles B..
Wells and Charles Sindelar. who has
just come back from Chicago, where he
stumped the town for Emerson. At
the best, that gives them two men out
of three, and at the worst, three out
Of three"
Lacksye Threatens Contest
Mr.. Lackaye said he would contest
the election unless it developed that
he had won 'in spite of the steam
roller" He said he hoped to have
$500 votes out of the total of 1000
Mr.. Emerson refused to make any
prediction as to the number of votes
be might receive 1t was said by Mr.
Turner that all ballots would be pre-
served and would be open to inspec-
ton in case there was contest. Many
Of the Lackaye sympathizers. who had
voted BY mail previous to the meeting.
refused to vote again, declaring the
change in the election procedure was
illegal.
y

nual address, in which he attacked the
Methodist Episcopal Church for its
hostility to the theatcr.
Il would say to all Metho dists," lie
asserted. that until their blue laws,
prohibiting people from going to the
theater, dancing or playing cards, arc
repealed, the Actors Equity Assoca-
ton will ask its members to refuse to
