spaces of Texas, and she looks good

Some personal data. :. Mary

loss of 10 since her marriage. She
looks like a combination Jean Ar

hair is currently blond. II insisted
on my own color (chestnut) for the

studio decide what's good for me-"
She has a child by her first mar
riage-Larry, aged 7. who attends
the Black Foxe Military School
and lives with his grandmother,
Mrs. Preston Martin, in West Los

band Richard bought and furnished
a house in Bel-Air.

Then, looking furtively around, she

rival Barbara Stanwyck as a coffee
drinker-which perhaps is why she
suffers with insomnia.

ject. This is most unusual-in Hol-

Sylvan Ave. Mans Cave Man" WOOing Results
 in Complaint

An old flame burned so fierce ly that a girl had to have a guard to protect her from the shoulder ing suitor who today finds himself free in bonds of $1,O0O, accused of assault.
 The alleged suitor, Martin Coviel- 10, 27, of 155 Sylvan avenue, arrest ed yesterday on a warrant, was granted continuance until May 10 by Judge Theobald E. Conway in city court today. Prosecuting Att torney William K. Lawlor asked that bond be set at $1,000.
 It was learned that Coviello and the girl at one time saw eye to eye, but the girl tired of him. He, how ever, continued to press his atten- tions so insistently, that the young woman requested police guard, which she obtained,
 Later, she was guarded by her brother and never walked the streets without protection of some sort.
 Coviello, it is charged, spotted his old flame on the street with her aunt April g, pushed the girl into his car, and sped away with her. Out of this episode grows the charge of assault.
 Yesterday, it was learned, Coviel- 10 and the girls brother engaged in a fist fight outside local factory, but no action has been taken by the police.

 Strength of The Lord
 MT. Coe in his talk said his message was built around the prayer of David when he said-"I will go in the strength of the Lord God and I will hope continually" and he said If we approach our problems in any other spirit, we fail to win our ob- jectives.
 Someone has said defeat is certain if we bring to our aid nothing bet ter than doubt, mistrust, suspense of judgment, or despair. But we have 8 fighting chance of success if we go in the spirit of faith-faith in the great ideals of the human spirit; faith that what ought to be can be; faith in one antoher; faith in the fundamental honesty and reaSonableness of mankind; faith in the justice and almighty power of God. Surely, he said, we must be- lieve that there is God in the world of affairs; that the Golden Rule should govern the lives of men; that we should be more in- terested in helping others than in wondering what they will probably do for us.
 If our generation has not thus builded as well as it might, then we should be all the more determined to help the coming generation to make greater progress while the op- portunity is still ours.
 A great work in this part of the city, he continued,r remains to be done. The children are growing up in your midst who have not the pri- vilege of worshiping in 8 real church auditorium. May the time soon come when doors will swing easily on their hinges, welcoming young and those of older years to worshipful atmosphere and a churchly rever- ence! He felt sure that all wanted to worship God in 8 beautiful sanc- tuary worthy of their devotion and the pride of possession. Anticipating such favorable circumstances, he said, I am sure you should arise therefore and build ye the sanctu- ary of the Lord your God.
 Cites Instances
 He sighted instances in the life of Dean Brown which he considered as chasing him as extraordinary and that his influence over people young and old can never be estimated, and said that as individuals we cannot hope to equal his record but to- gether we can furnish facilities to enable the pastor and church school workers and others to teach, train, and develop those who are to do the worlds work in the nearby years. He said, Jesus said, Go teach" and that one hundred times the Bible emphasizes that command. He wondered if the church of God in Waterbury has kept pace in relig- ious teaching with the city, state and nation in secular instruction,
