IN LIME LIGHT AGAIN

Carson City, Nev.-Oral arguments
on motion by Attorney General Leon
ard B. Fowler to have the divorce de-
cree of Mary Pickford from Owen E..
Moore dissolved as illegal were made
here Monday before the state supreme
court by Fowler and Miss Pickford's
attorney. Gavin McNab of San Fran

Nevada" He said Moore and Miss
Pickford were guilty of fraud and col
fusion, and that Judge Langan had no

divorce trial on the side Of either plain
tiff or defendant, nor as an independ-
ent or interventor. and the district
