'No"
 "No," said Chaplin, quietly T did not"
 Sometimes facing Judge J. F. T. O'Connor and sometimes scanning the faces of the jurors. the multi millionaire Chaplin told how he'd given Miss Barry $500 in New York because she said she and her moth CT were desperate. He said he was surprised, upon his return to Holly wood, to find that Miss Barry had preceded him. He said she phoned and phoned again for 10 days until finally she got him, instead of his butler, on the telephone.
 He said he agreed to take her to the restaurant of Mike Romanoff, but that she was is no fit condition to eat her dinner.
 MT. Chaplin interrupted Gies- Ter. "When you took her to this restaurant. did you have any in- tentions of having sexual relations with her?'
 Chaplin said he did not. By now his carefully brushed white hair was rumpled and his neatly knotted tie was askew. He took up the night in December when Miss Barry broke two windows to get into his Hillside mansion and confronted him with revolver in his bedroom.
 "!She told me she would not kill me because she did not believe me worth it. he said. "She said, I am going to kill myself; am go- ing to do it in your room." I heard a disturbance in the hall. My children, my two boys were down. stairS-.'
 Tears In Eyes
 Tears welled in his eyes and his voice choked, while he struggled for a moment to control himself. Then he continued, almost unemo- tionally:
 T was talking on the telephone when Joan walked in, pointing a gun at me. was scared and l tried to reason with her. said, all your supposed love and affection for me is sham; otherwise you wouldn't do things like this
 T went to the balcony and told my two boys to go home and stay the night with their mother. They could not go: they had no car Joan still was holding her gun. I said, you'd better go; the children are here She said, I'm destitute; have no place to stay I said, you can't stay here; I'm going to throw you out
 "She said if I came near her, she would kill herself"
 The 54-year-old British actor, who faces two more court actions by Miss Barry, said he eventually agreed to let her sleep in the guest room; that he went back to his own room, locked himself in and slept until eight o'clock the next morn ing. After breakfast, he said he went to the guest room to see if Miss Barry had awakened. She had.
 "She reached for her gun," he testified. T said, give it to me- She said, Don't come near me- told her she was her own worst enemy"
 Query
 Giesler stepped close to his client, removed his horn-rimmed glasses and said:
 Nov, MT. Chaplin, on that night did you go into your bedroom and have sexual intercourse with Miss Barry during which she laid the gun down during the act and later picked it up?"
 T - did not" said the come dian, so slowly and so vehemently he almost seemed to be splitting his words.
 A few more questions ended yes- terday's court session and Chaplin, perspiring profusely, reached for the water pitcher. Giesler said he would testify for perhaps an hour this morning on an entirely different angle of the case.
 And then" said Prosecutor Charles H. Carr, T will have some questions to ask. I will have many questions"
