HUSBAND" BEATS
HER OVER HEAD

Hollywood $780, amp because
California laws on domestic rela-
lions do not recognize common
law marriages" the heavy penalty
for wife beating cannot be clamp
ed down on Gus Chappel for badly
beating the head Of blues queen,
Dinah Washington.
Said to have been introduced to
all as her husband" she and
Chappell, a musician in the band
with which she has been appear
ing at the Oasis, have been living
in a swanky hotel at West Adams
and Western ave. She was pain
fully and dangerously wounded by
the husky Chappen, when he hit
her several blows with a metal
music stand. She was rushed to
Georgia Street Receiving hospital,
where a deep cash over her right
eye necessitated seven stitches.
Miss Washington filed assault
and battery charges against her
assailant under the name of Ruth
Jones, TO avoid bad publicity, but
the police blotter at University
station, revealed her true identity.
She declared the beating had de-
veloped from an argument they
had after returning from the club
in the early morning hours.
Chappen, however, made a clean
getaway, escaping arrest by po-
lice. The injured woman, one of
the top money makers in the disc
field, was unable to complete her
engagement at the Oasis, which
had to temporarily close. She also
lost by being unable to fill her TV
commitments.

be written in all contracts stating
that he will not have to jump up

lying on his back or walk the bar.
Charlie Carpenter, Youngs

principal from 1915 to 1912,
whose spirit lives on even though
he, himself, is dead.
About 500 school officials. stu

friends gathered in the school
auditorium at a memorial serv-

age of 81.
They paid tribute to the gen

with the sunny humor and pc
rennial freshness" in songs.
prayers and words.
Rose to Occasion.
Robert S. Anderson, who was
assistant principal under DR..
Newton and still occupies that
position at Western, recalled the
time the tall. good-humored edu-
Gator sent for cup cake, a can
die and a poet laureate at a
faculty meeting. It seems DR..
Newton had called a special
faculty meeting and a teacher
had approached him with a plea.
How could you call a meeting
on my birthday?" she had asked.
And DR.. Newton rose to the oc-
caSion.
Mr.. Anderson recalled, too, the
time the goateed principal per-
