THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1932 Society Woman Sues Former Film Beauty? Sict'® Protos CLAIRE WINDSOR IS INVOLVED IN AFFAIR WITH YOUNG BROKER Blonde Beauty of Movies Named in $100,000 Alienation Suit on Coast {$ CALLED ‘LOVE PIRATE’ Actress Denies She Stole Affec- tions of Alfred C. Read, Jr. of San Francisco (Copyright, 1932, NEA Service, Inc.) The woman who was hailed a few years ago as “the most beautiful blonde in the movies” today stands accused as a “love pirate,” faced by a suit for $100,000 by the wife of the man whose affections she is alleged to have stolen. Whether Claire Windsor, film star whose graceful beauty once capti- vated millions of movie-goers, must pay this price to Mrs. Marian Y. Read for the lost love of her husband, Al- fred C. Read, Jr. is a question that now pends before the courts at Oak- land, Calif., where Mrs. Read's alien- ation suit is on file. Moreover, Mrs. Read has sued her husband for di- voree, naming Miss Windsor as co- respondent.

She was playing in Al Jolson's “Wonder Bar” at San Francisco when officers served on her the papers in Mrs. Read's $100,000 suit, which charged that the famous blonde beauty stole the affec- tions of Mr. Read, prominent stock broker and former University of Cali- fornia athlete. Mrs. Read charged that her hus- band was “constantly in the com- pany” of Miss Windsor when he was in Los Angeles, “supposedly on busi- ness.” She declared the actress had pursued “a course of conduct caleu- lated to win his love.” Almost simul- taneously, she filed the divorce suit naming Miss Windsor as co-respond- ent. | “Why, the very idea!” exclaimed ‘aire. “I never lured any man away from his wife and never expect to. Of course, I know Mr. Read; I was introduced to him by Louis Epstein, Al Jolson’s manager, but I don’t know why all this fuss should be made over my knowing him. Honestly, I don't know what it is all about; it has me flabbergasted or floundered, or some- thing like that.” ee & | Very adroitly, Mrs. Read obtained x in friendly poses. She submitted the | And so, in July, when Claire Wind- sor was called upon to make a de- position under oath, it is said she admitted she “had loved" Mr. Read, but denied alienating his affections. Roy Hudson, attorney for Mrs. Read, said that Claire admitted writ- ing the letters and quoted her as hav- ing said in the deposition: | “Yes, I wrote those letters. I was very fond of Mr. Read then. In fact, you might say I loved him. But I had no idea I was coming between him and his wife. break up anybody's home. I thought Mr. Read and his wife had separated, and he led to believe that.” Whereupon Mrs. Read commented: “Miss Windsor admitted just ex- actly what I have said in my suit.” Midway between the filing of the suit and Claire's deposition came an exciting episode. In May, Mrs. Read had her hus- band arrested on a charge that he had kidnaped her at the point of a gun. She told Oakland police that he had abducted her from the home of friends and, with several accom- plices, driven her to a lonely spot in a forest 30 miles away. obtained the car keys and escaped when her. husband fell asleep beside the road. One report had it that a reconcilia- ion was the purpose of the alleged naping. Another report had it that Read was trying to effect the return of letters written to him by Miss Windsor which, it was said, he had previously turned over to his wife in an attempted reconciliation and upon her promise that she would drop her suit.

EVERY WOMAN faces this question “How do I look to other people?” I£ you have a lovely skin, attractive eyes, and plenty of enthusiasm, you need not worry. So many women, though, risk their beauty by neglect of constipa- tion. It often causes loss of pep, sallow skins, dull eyes, pimples. Yet constipation can be overcome by eating Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN. This cereal provides “bulk” to exercise the intestines, and Vitamin B which tones the intestinal tract. ALL-BRAN also supplies iron for the blood. Lhe “bulk” in ALL-BRAN is much like that of lettuce. Special cooking processes make it finer, more pal- atable. It is not habit-forming. Surely this is safer than abusing the system with pills and drugs— so often habit-forming. Two tablespoonfuls daily will correct most types of constipation. if your intestinal trouble is not re- lieved this way, see your doctor. At all grocers. In the red-and- green package.

The newspaper articles, which ori- ginated in military quarters, said the pictures taken were of establishments which would probably be targets for air bombers in the event of a war. ‘They expressed fear that the photo- graphs might be placed in the hands of American military authorities and insisted the photographing was unde- sirable from the viewpoint of national defense. There are no regulations forbidding such picture-taking. Officials of the “bank explained that the pictures were taken to pro- vide educational and promotion mat- ter.
