,Continued from Page l)

nesseS as to Simpson, E. As alleged misconduct. The whole hearing was expected to be over within 10 Inin- utes or so.
 Mrs. Simpson was understood to be staying with friends for the time being, and Simpson was at the Guards club. <.
 Mayfair speculation turned to the possibility that Mrs. Simpson might be a guest at house party which King Edward is to give beginning the middle of next week-just be- fore the Ipswich assizes-at Sand- ringham, the quiet country estate which the late King George loved.
 Sandringham is in Norfolk, 60 miles "a pleasant drive - from Ipswich. a4
 But present information was that the party would be shooting party. with no women present. Only one guest has been announced so far of those who will participate. He is the 38 year old bachelor Earl of Sefton.
 First Divorce Report
 The first indirect story that Mrs. Simpson is seeking a divorce ap- peared in the Evening Star today on the front page under the heading, Divorce at Assizes Society Cases Get Less Publicity"
 The story said:
 Since the decentralization of the divorce courts, more and more causes celebres' are being tried in country towns. Many society people are summing the glare of London publicity and have gone to remote assizes. But only undefended suits or cases brought or defended under the poor persons rules may be tried in these courts"
 King Edward will motor to Fort Belvedere his private residence near London this evening to stay until Monday, when he will go to San- dringham for the country estate party which he is giving for a few personal friends, including, presum- ably, Mrs. Simpson.
 It has been noted that the king has not slept at Buckingham Palace since he vert into official residence there, but has been motoring to Fort Belvedere almost every night.
 The king, accompanied probably only by an equerry, will leave for Sandrlngham about tea-time on Monday, travelling in an ordinary first class coach, as he did when he returned from Sandringham to Lon- don after his fathers funeral.
 British In Hollywood
 Hollywood, October 16. - (UP) - Hollywood's British set, including peer of the realm, bemoaned today the headlines given King Edwards friendship for Mrs. Ernest (Wally) Simpson, but the same headlines led studio executives to believe her as a picture possibility.
 The youthful Earl of Warwick, now under contract to movie company as an actor, expressed his amaze ment at the interest of Americans in the kings friendship for Mrs. Simpson.
 T have met Mrs. Simpson and found her charming woman," he reported. Tt seems strange that the very ordinary friendship of the king for one of his friends should cause so much furore.
 What is chiefly regrettable is the publicity. It seems to me the atten- tion given their friendship is most unfortunate. It cannot do anyone any good, and may do much harm
 At least one studio, however, said that Mrs. Simpsons presence on its production lot would do enormous good for them at the boxoffice.
 Jack Sherrill, prominent film art ist' agent, cabled Mrs. Simpson that a motion picture career was hers for the asking.
 His cable to the former Baltimore, Md, socialite said:
 Am in position to obtain imme- diateiy motion picture contract for you with Universal Pictures Cor poration Stop Certain executives keenly interested Stop Please cable me if interested authority to repre- sent you and will forward details.
