that an inquest would establish nothing but a motive-and spread on the records the intimate secrets of a dead mans life.
 A bit of Hollywood drama was forecast by the announcement that the inquest would be held as or dered. It was a bit of drama such as Bern himself directed in "Grand Hotel" wherein the actions of little known characters as- sembled by chance in cross roads of many destinies assumed for the moment the role leading charac- ter in a drama of life, and love and death.
 The secret midnight conference followed the dramatic flight here by Henry Bern, Paul's young broth CT who came by plane to defend his brothers name and protect his familys interests.
 It was Henry who revealed yes- terday that there was another wo- man" in the life of his brother, one Paul had given loving care after she suffered @ mental Arrangement during their 10-year relationship.
 It was revealed to-day, also, that a Mrs Paul Bern had been regis tered for several years in the Hotel New York, where checks from a Paul Bern were received in payment of her ex- penses. os. % e-.....t. .-s.
 In the two-hour bedroom confer ence last night, it was learned, were Henry Bern, Louis B. Mayer, head of Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer studios; Irving Thalberg. husband of Norma Shearer and assistant of Mayer, and Marino Bello, Miss Har- lows stepfather.
 All, as they emerged from the to await the inquest at 1 D. m. EST, refused to speak to newspapermen, re- fused even to discuss Miss Har- lows condition.
 Miss Harlow was reported to be in state of nervous collapse, guarded to prevent an- other attempt on her part to throw herself from high balcony of her home.

The suicide of Paul Bern, her di- rector-husband, in their ldyinc "honeynioon nest" in a Hollywood canyon was only another unhappy chapter in the life of the celebrated young actress.
 Singularly enough, it had all the elements of a stark drama or the films which Bern, with his ingenu- ity as director, could nave plotted and in which Jean Harlow, as an actress, could have plyaed the iead- ing role.
 For Bern could have cast him self in the role (which was his own) as a tremendously success1ui. but nevertheless unhappy, man or Al who had never known real love affair until a charming young actress only half his age crossed ms path. ,s
 Bern could have shown himself (which was true) as a poor poy' son of German immigrant parents, who grew up in the slums Of New York's East Side, drifted out 10 Hollywood, got small job in the movies and rapidly rose to the heights.
 He could have pictured himself, too (which was also true), as quiet, studious man-perhaps even morose-who seemed to find little attraction in the gaudy pleasures of life and preferred to discuss life in a philosophical vein, even giv- ing himself to frequent philosophl- cal discussions on suicide.
 And Bern could have shown him. self (which was also true) as a moody man who, for years. seemed to have no loves of his own but found joy in playing BE Brother" to movie actresses whose lives had been cursed by misfor- tune. When the late Barbara La MArr was at the end of her tra1l, sick and dead broke, Bern brought her home. paid for her physicians and was with her until the end came. When Mabel Normand found herself entrapped in the tragic clr- cumstances surrounding the mur- d.r of William Desmond Taylor. 1t was Bern who befriended her and forced other Hollywood executives to come to her aid.
 In view of all this. it seems hard ly surprising that Bern should turn a pistol on himself after penning a farewell note to his young bride in which he assured her he still loved her.
 And for the actress to play op- posite him in this stark drama or belated love, brief happiness and sudden tragedy, Bern scarcely could have chosen more appro- priate leading lady than Jean liar low.
 Jean Harlow had known love be- fore, though it is doubtful if she had ever known happiness for-as developments often prove-these two elements are not always mir rored by each other.
 Perhaps, in his moody way, Bern would have chosen for his bride girl who had not known happiness before-with the hope that he could bring her happiness. And such was Jean Harlow's history.
 As a child in Kansas City, she never seemed to "get on' with the other little girls in her neighbor- hood. They liked dolls and those other things that little girls usually play with; Jean didn't. She stored her dolls away as fast as they were given her and sought other pleas ures.
 It was the same whne she was at l ,, an exclusive school for girls near Chicago. The other girls liked to dance; Jean didn't

 The fact is all the more remark able when it is considered that the encyclical covered an entire news paper page. This exploit gained Monsignor Spellman the complete satisfaction of the Holy Father.

 New York, Sept 8.-UP)- Patrick Cardinal Hayes. one of the few American prelates to be honor ed as was Monsignor Spellman in ceremonies at St Peters today, ob- served the 10th anniversary of his ordination as a priest today. He requested from his summer home in Sullivan county that there be no public ceremony. / After the ceremony. the Pope granted an audience of 20 minutes to Bishop Spellman. who intro duced his relatives to the Pontiff.
 The Pope gave the new bishop a golden pectOral cross and ring. and a sacred image worked in rare stone for his mother.
 In receiving Bishop Spellman. the Pope said:
 we congratulate you on this day of your consecation. because 1t Is the festlvity of the nativity of the Blessed Virgin. and also is very dear to us ns the anniversary of our entrance to Milan as arch bishop. We hold great hope that the iabors to which you are return ing viii be as fruitful as have been your labors in the past"

GREFNEN FACE
3 TOUGH GAMES
BY GARRETT WATERS

Counting today's game with the
Philadelphia AS, the Griffs have
only three more on tap in this
current home stand before they
hit the rails for their second West
ern trip of the season.
And Manager JohnSon's men
have set down an aim to make it
three straight triumphs during
the next three days in order to be
in the best of winning spirits when
they finally hotfoot it to the train
Sunday night for the start of that
mentioned Western journey.
Tough Contests
The contests today and tomor-
row are to be the toughest to
win. This, because the AS are
always a pesky foe - the sort
whose greatest joy is to bob up
and play a strong game when
the home opposition would rather
have an easy afternoon of it.
Sundays engagement against
the Red SoX is not going to be
push-over either. Oddly enough
the Griffs have experienced the
greatest trouble ever this year
in defeating the Beaneaters, five
contests having been lost during
the season, actually more games
than the Sox have been able to
win from any other team in the
league.
The Griffs' records against the
AS and Sox reveal the following
figures. Against the former,
johnson and his gang have won
as many games as they have lost
eight. Against the Red SoX,
nine have been won.
Manager Johnson's men play an
exhibition game, by the way, be,
fore they actually face their first
opponent on the western journey
on schedule. Next Monday Gin.
cinnati will be visited for one day
where the HoWley-managed Red,
legs will be met.

j. s., GERMANY.
EVEN At NET

ROLAND GARROS STADIUM,
PARIS, July 22.-The United
States broke even with Germany
in the first days play of her
Davis Cup matcn with Germany
today, splitting two singles
matches.
After Frank K. Shields dropped
the opening match of the series
to Gottfried Won Gramm, of Ger
many, IS, So, Ga, 8-6,
Ellsworth Vines, youthful holder
of the American and British
national titles came back to de-
feat the strong man of the Ger
man team, Daniel Prem, 6-3,
6+3, p6, "a.
Shields defeat came as a sur
prise to many critics who had
picked the United States team to
make a clean sweep against Ger
many.
Won Cramm Extended
Won Cramm was thoroughly ex-
tended, however, before vanquiSh-
ing his opponent, who forced the
match to 48 games before conced-
ing victory to the German.
Seven thousand persons watched
the exciting match under an
overcast sky that continually
threatened rain.
Shields was erratic and his
powerful, but wild, strokes could
not answer the heady and Stra-
tegic play Of Won CramIa. Despite
his cannon-ball service and rare
brilliant placement shots, the
American dropped the first set.
He then replaced power by eau
ton and took the second by flash
ing out with occasional unbeat-
able passes to the corner and
steaming placements which kept
back Won Cramm's net rushes.
Not Fatiguned
The German came back strong
in the third, however, and with
out showing any signs of fatigue
kept the American guessing and
running constantly from one side
of the court to the other.
Although loSig points on his un-
certain volleying, Won Cramm got
over a number of beautiful place
ments during the fourth set.
Shields, although displaying bet
ter headwork, hit out or into the
net frequently to lose after the
set went to IA games.

"Pat" Patterson, sturdy mounds
man of the winning nine, showed
uncanny ability 10 stop batters
with men on the bases. He not
only hurled an excellent game
but fielded his position in a big
league manner. All told Patter-
son was really the hero of the
contest. His five-hit performance
speaks for itself.
The victory over the Printers
by the Navalmen was a distinct
surprise because the former team
had not been beaten in the Sec
ond half series until yesterday
and won the first half series with
ease.
Patterson Stars
Patterson was opposed on the
mound by his former teammate,
"Pete" Ingram, who pitched fairly
good but not good enough to
compete with pat" Ingram al
lowed seven hits, one being a
home run by Bridges, who is the
leading batter in the Depart
mental League.
G. P. o. scored one run in the
initial frame and Naval Hospital
chalked up two markers in the
third. Neither team scored in
the fourth but the Navy boys
showed three runs over in the
fifth. The Printers came back
with two in the same inning.
From then on there was no scor-
ing until the ninth when the
Sailors bounced two scores across
the plate to clinch the victory.
Everybody hopes that today's
games in the weekday leagues
are as interesting as they were
yesterday. Today in the Depart
