 When Barrymore appeared Tues- day and applied for a license to wed Miss Costello. 22 year old film star and daughter of the screen veteran. Maurice Costello. he declined to ex- plain where and when his second wife, Blanche Oelrichs Barrymore, obtained divorce. Later. however, he issued a statement saying that such a divorce had been granted and that Mrs. Barrymore No. 2. who writes under the pen name of Michael Strange. was abroad" at present.
 After 1t had become known that the mysterious woman had attempts ed to halt the issuance of the mar riage license, Costello revealed that in the past he had objected to the attention which Barrymore had been paying his daughter. but said that he had forgiven both of them" when the girl disclosed that she ex- pected to wed the 41 year old actrr.

 Ordered to Stop
 A machine. bearing New York markers headed eastward looked suspicious to Anderson. while pa trolling the Post road and he or dered the driver to the side of the road. From appearance the only occupant of the car was the driver. as all shades were drawn. The car stopped opposite the new high school and Anderson was about to alight from his motorcycle when he was met with a hail of bullets from one of the side windows. One of the slugs crashed into the headlight on Anderson's motorcycle and he drop ped to the ground.

After the car had gone about a mile. Motorcycle Patrolman George Evans. joined An derson and continued the chase After passing the overhead railroad bridge. the car evidently turned of the Post road and headed up Mans. field avenue. passing the Darien DO lice station. The machine shook of its pursuers at this point as Ander- son and Evans did not notice the car turn from the Post road, owins to the lack of observation on account | of the overhead bridge.
 Lose Car
 The officers continued along the Post road until they discovered they had lost track of the New York ma. chine and retraced their quarry which they saw rapidly leaving | Ar in back of Mansfield avenue. A des- cription of the car was sent out te surrounding territories.
