Made Love via Apple Pie,
Says Wife, Defending Suit
He and Her Alleged Rival Used
to Eat From Same Piece, Mrs.
s. p. ADuIeeate CHARGES

Upon the question of how intimate a
man and a woman can get over the
subject of apple pie depends in some
measure the outcome of the suit for
annulment of marriage brought by
Samuel D. Applegate, of Brooklyn, and
the counter charges of his wife involv-
ing an unnamed woman she describes
as her rival.
Justice Kapper, in the Supreme Court
in Brooklyn, ordered Applegate, su-
perintendent in the employ of the Otis
Elevator Company, to pay his wife $15
week alimony and 500 counsel fees
pending trial of his suit, which he
based on the allegation that when he
married Mrs. Applegate she had not
been divorced from her first husband,
Charles Berg,
Mrs. Applegate denied this promptly
and firmly. In addition, she brought
the apple pie allegation. Two years
ago, she said, her husband became at
tentive to another young woman, whose
name she said she wouldn't mention
until the trial. This young woman
often dined at the Applegate home, the
wife declared. And not only that My,
no! Much more, as witness her affi-
davit:
"At the table / have seen my hus-
band reach over and take a piece of
pie of which he had been eating and
allow said woman to bite therefrom. I
| have also seen said woman return such
! acts of intimacy"
