Cross “Complaint Filed By Screen Star Give * ‘Other Side’ re EARLY TRIAL IS ASKED Lita Described as ‘Calculat- ing’ Young Woman and: Inattentive Wife _ Los Angeles, June 3.—(#)4-The “other side” of the Charles Chaplin divorce suit story—the film come- dian’s answer to Lita Grey Chaplin's tional charges upon which she séeks separation—went into the court Tecord here today as an indication that the wealthy motion picture ster would show fight in defending him- self in the action. ” Chaplin’s answer and cross com- ptaint, in which he asks the divorce j award, picturing the life he led with Mrs. Chaplin and their two children in the 40-room Beverly Hills mansion during the two years they lived. to- Gether, was filed yesterday. The!'screen funster's double edged counter suit depicted himsolf as hard working, faithful and loving in his home life. His wife’s divorce bill had’ pictured him as an unwilling bri groom, forced into marriage by fear of criminal prosecution, and a cruel, unfaithful husband, violently opposed to fatherhood. Charges Are Denied To all of which he entered stren- uous denial and in the barrage of charges of his cross complaint his wife was pictured as a “calculating” young woman, an inattentive wife and an indifferent mother, at one time in her matrimonial career infatuated with one “young man” and later “crazy” about an automobile sales- man, and in between these asserted loves a reveler at parties: at which she imbibed too freely of liquor.

Schory, secretary of the contest committee of the National Aeronautical ussociation at Washington, D. C., to appear at the field for the take-off. Sehory will officially seal the barograph to be placed on the plane in order that the duration and dis- tance of the flight would be recorded. Levine declined to discuss the possi- bility of a take-off this afternoon ai also who would accompany Clarence D. Chamberlin on the flight as co- pilot and navigator. He said he did not care to make any statement in case conditions be- yond his control should prevent the take-off. BERLIN THOUGHT TO BE PLANE'S DESTINATION Washington, June 3.—(?)—The un- derstanding in aeronautical circles here is thut Berlin is the destination chosen for the proposed flight of the Bellanca airplane “Columbia.” F. Schory, secretary. of the National, Aeronautical association, was called by telephone from New York today and hurriedly left for Ahat city to seal the barograph on the plane. Time of the take-off was not known here. Mr. Schory probably ‘will not reach-the Long Island flying field, from which the Bellanca will fter 6 o'clock tonight. Denison, Towa, June 3.—(#)—The Bellanca plane “Columbia,” piloted by Clarence D. Chamberlin, will probably try. to feach Betlin in its trip across the Atlantic, the aviator's father said here today. The state-, ment was based upon the last word Chamberlin’s parents received from ' him, indicating that his take-off was imminent. COURSE 600 MILES LONGER THAN THAT LINDBERGH TOOK New York, June 3—)—If Clar- ence Chamberlin does fly to Berlin, ay his father believes he intends, and if he follows the Great Circle royte to Europe, his course will be 600 miles longer than that flown over by Charles Lindbergh. : The great circle course Lindbergh followed by way of New Foundland England and France, measured 3; miles by the instruments on plane. The same course extended t Berlin would be 4,225 miles long. WEATHER CONDITIONS REPORTED UNFAVORABLE New York, June 3—+#)—The weather bureau reported to Clarence Chamberlin this afternoon that at- mospheric conditions weie not favor- able for his proposed trans-Atlantic flight and advised against a hop off tonight. ‘Conditions are bad,” said James Kimball of the weather bureau, “al- though not materially worse than when Lindbergh took off.” Kimbalh said that between here atid New Foundland there were 'fresh northeast winds.
