he worked upwards in FINLAND,
going from one company to an
other until he finally signed con-
tract with Famous Players.
During Rudy's rise to fame, diff
ferences broke out between him
and his wife, Jean Acker. These
crystallized in a divorce suit which
resulted in an interlocutory decree
being granted.
Linked With Winifred
Before the publicity attendant to
this affair had died down, Valen.
tino's name was being linked with
that OF winifred Hudnut. The ru-
mors seemed to be based on truth,
for, before long, the "sheik" and
Winifred were married quietly in
Mexico.
Here, however, the law stepped
in and accused Valentino of a
too SOON marriage, the objec-
ton coming from the fact that he
had overstepped the restrictions or
remarriage placed upon him by the
court in granting q divorce from
his first wife. He was charged
with bigamy, and publicity was
showered upon the "Sheik" and
Winifred.
The legal quarrel was solved
when Miss Hudnut was ordered
to live apart from her husband
until the necessary 12-month pc
Rod had elapsed since his di'

SHUMAKER REPORT
HELD IN CONTEMPT
Lawyers "Jury" Cites lndi-
ana Dry Leader for Ac-
ton by Court.
Nv the Associated Press.

- FL.
INDIANAPOLIS. July 16.--Another
legal milestone in Indiana's famous
contempt case was passed yesterday
when five of six members of a COM
mittee of lawyers appointed by the
State Supreme Court submitted an
opinion holding that E. S. iShumaker,
superintendent of the Indiana Anti
saloon League. committed contempt
of court in his annual report to the
league trustees last January
The contempt proceedings were
instituted by Attorney General
Arthur L. Gilliom last March against
Shumaker and r. A. Miles and Jesse
E. Martin, league attorneys, charg-
ing that the leagues annual report
on the work of the league and re-
viewing liquor appeals by the SUI
preme Court were contemptuous and
misleading.
rhe majority opinion Of the
lawyers committee held, that the
articles in the annual report were
contemptuous. but found that the two
league attorneys had purged them
selves of contempt by their actions
since the filing of the charges. G.
C. Shirley of Indianapolis, who fled
the dissenting opinion, held that
Shumaker was not guilty and should
be discharged. He concurred with
the majority opinion that Miles and
Martin should be discharged.
The majority opinion does not mean
that Shumaker must be found guilty
by the Supreme Court. 1t Is possible
for the court to act contrary TO the
course recommended.
The Supreme Court is not now in
session and David A. Myers, chief
Justice, did not know when the court
would be called to pass on the case.

WINSTED. Conn, July 16.-Mrs.
Marion Hemming, Divorce of Hart
ford. is still resisting all efforts to
evict her from Highland Lake cot
tage. now sought by its owner, her
former fiance. Louis F.. Griffing, as
a home for himself and bride.
Mrs. Hemming insists that Griffing.
a Hartford contractor, promised to
marry her and that she received the
cottage as a gift.
Use of crowbars, boarding .of win
dows, cutting of the water supply
and the severing of the telephone con-
nection have failed to dislodge her.
The law came to her assiSta nee
yesterday when three men. who had
been on guard at the cottage. de-
seconded on her voluntary prison with
crowbaIS, broke open the front door
and began to move out the furniture.
They were promptly arrested on
charges of breach of the peace and
ordered to appear in court tomorrow.
Mrs. Hemming was injured in the.
skirmish. The door struck her in
the face, cutting her lip. Her ~
year-old son, who was standing
nearby, also was slightly hurt. THE
father and mother of Griffing watched
the attempt to GUST Mrs Hemming,
but Grifing himself was not present.
Griffing recently decided the property
to his mother.
Mrs. Hemming says she induced her
husband to get a divorce so that she
might be married to Griffing and that
Griffing had promised to marry her
when he was in a position to do so.
Griff1ng divorced his wife last May,
and was married a month later to
Mrs. Lena;S s. Dickinson of Springfield,
Mass. When the bridal couple came
to the cottage to spend their honey
moon they found Mrs. Hemming in
possession of the cabin.
Mr. and Mrs. Griffing have taken a.
cottage nearby, awaiting the outcome
OF the attempts to Gust Mrs. Hem
ming.
Interest in the case had reached
such point today that there has been
q traffic jam in front of the cottage.
Mrs Hemming says she and her son
will stay as long as possible.
Sympathetic neighbors overnight
sent Mrs. Hemming food and supplies
until 1t appeared that she could with
stand siege of at least three weeks.
In addition, the water supply cut on
yesterday by Griffng's order had been
turned on and the boards have been
removed from the windows.

SEATTLE, Wash, Feb. 19.-The
motorist is not complete lord of the
highway-not yet.
James Ingraham left his home in
Montana a. few months ago and
started for the coast, travelling in an
old spring wagon drawn by a team
of mules.
Motorist after motorist sped past
him. They elbowed him off the road,
footed and hooted at him, jeered at
him and shot by, leaving dust and
derisive laughter.
At last, near Camp Lewis wash
a motorist grazed his wagon. The
auto stopped and the driver got out
to see what the damage was. In
graham, blind with accumulated rage
against all motorists, shot him dead.
He was arrested and convicted OF
first degree murder.
Then a storm of public indigna-
ton against the reckless monopoly
of the road by selfish motorists
arose. The prosecutors Office allowed
him another trial and let him plead
to a lesser offense. He received a
prison term in place Of the death
penalty.
The motorist isn't complete lord
of the Neutrality-suspicious. yet.
