NEW YORK-Gloria Wander
bilt De Cicco turned to me with
a radiant face.
"I'm so happy" she said over
lunch. Happier than I have
ever been before. Pat is a per-
feet husband"
Last December the 17-year-
old heiress to four million dol
lars was married to Pat De Cicco
(the name is spelled with an
CO., says Pat), Hollywood act

years her senior. Many wise
acres predicted their happiness
would be shortlived. But Glor-

Does he ever get CROSSE" she
went on. "Well, when he gets
mad at me I know he's always
right-and I am the one who is
wrong"
The light that breaks across
Gloria's face, when she talks of
her marriage, fades at remem-
brance of the trial in the sos,
when her beautiful widowed
mother (Mrs. Reginald Wander

(Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney,
battled for her custody in court.
THAT was the unhappiest
time of my life" she said with a
shudder. II just don't see how
grownup people could do that to
child. Of course I love my
mother. But I want to forget
that time and never remember 1t
again."
The Vanderbilt heiress says
that her personal allowance is
not as large as it is reported to
be. She limited that it is in the
neighborhood of $4,000 a year
