VETERAN ACTOR
 IN BAD DILEMMA

Los Angeles, Aug S.-UP)- George Bancroft, veteran film ac- tor, to-day awaited a superior court decision as to whether he was still married to his first wife and if so, just how much money, if any, she would cost him for separate maintenance.

VOW PAPEN HAS
 BEEN ACCEPTED

Vienna, Aug S-(UP)-The ten- sion between Austria and Ger many which has existed for months, was definitely lifting to- day, following the cabinets ac-s ceptance of Col Franz von Papen as the new German minister to Vienna.
 Austria had viewed Won Papen's appointment with considerable suspicion, and it had been be- lieved he would act as German high commissioner rather than as a diplomat having only ordinary powers"
 The cabinets acceptance of Won Papen was therefore regarded in political circles as demonstrating Austria's s willingness to adopt policy of watchful waiting.
 Won Papen has indicated that he will take absolutely no part in the internal politics of Austria.

 One woman was so badly injured police at first believed her dead. An emergency squad was sum- moned, however, when a spark of life was detected and oxygen was applied amid the ruins of the ex- pensive roof-top apartments.
 Several other persons were in- jured, one of. them being Louis So- bol, Broadway columnist for the New York Evening Journal, who suffered minor cuts when he was thrown from his bed in one of the penthouses.
 Police said the dying woman was Jeannette Baer, renting agent for the huge building. which houses 125 families. They formed tentative theory that she had smelled gas leaking in one of the penthouses and had gone to inves- tigate. Possibly she had lighted g match.
 The detonation was heard many blocks from the scene, one of the busiest corners in that congested area, and several thousand per- sons lined the streets. All specta- tors were pushed back two blocks by police who feared loose sections of brick might fall.
 It was reported that pedestrians had been struck by the first cat aract of bricks but the confusion made verification difficult.
