HIRAM JOHNSON COAT TAILIS — ONLY OMEN OF THE U.S. ABROAD FLAPPER FILM CTAR IS SUED FOR DIVORCE Marie Prevost Charged With Desertion by “Sonny” G erke, LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11—{United Press —One of filmlands romances ap- peared in the lmelignt for the first time today with the filing of a di complaint by H. C, .“Sonny" Gerke, against Marie Gerke, whom it is said by friends of the pair, is Marie Pre- vost, “flapper film star.” Desertion is charged. Friends assert that Marie Prevost married Gerke five years ago when rhe was a bathing beauty and he ‘was an automobile salesman. Miss Prevost has always posed as being unmarried. Attempts to find Miss Prevost today ended in failure. The complaint did not recite the cause of the Gerke’s difficulties and Gerke is said to have refused to dis- cuss them. It was set forth that Gerke and Marie Gerke were married at Ocean Side on June 22, 1918 ana that they separated on May 28, 2. ‘There were no children, according to the document. Friends recalled that Gerke and Miss Prevost were often seen together five years ago and he was frequently noticed on the Sennett lot where she worked at the time. Lately Miss Prevost has been seen at numerous social functions with Kenneth Harlan, screen leading man, who himself secured a divorce about a year ago.

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass., Aug. 11. —What does a great man think about? The Prince of Wules or Lloyd George, for instance ‘Do matters world importance occupy their minds, or the trivialities of common everyday life? Sir Edward Grigg, M. P., intimate friend of both, ought to know. He was secretary to Lloyd George and he accompanied the prince on his trip around the world. What Sir Edward himself thinks about mostly is the chance of finding favorable omens of America’s re- newed interest abroad. He is here lecturing at the Institute of Politics. “Now it can't be told,” says Sir Edward—meaning he’s mum on what his friends, the Prince of Wales and Lloyd Geort are thinking about. Instead of disclosing just whom the prince is going to marry—and when—and whether Lloyd George ex- pects to make a sensational leap back into the premiership, Sir Ed- ward talks about such things as these: Honeymooning—and Hiram Johnson! “The Prince of Wales?” Sir Ed- ward began his defensive. “Charm- ing fellow. Beloved by all. But too intimate a friend to talk about “Lloyd George? Extraordinary man, tremendous worker. The greater his difficulties, the greater his spirit. Greatest man I know. But too closely associated to discut him.” Honeymooning? Oh, yes, said Sir Edward, this was his second honey- moon. Hoe and Lady Grigg were married jast January, and they took their first. honeymoon in Egypt. “I believe in frequent honeymoons,” he said—and Lady Grigg nodded assent. “They make for happiness.” Hiram Johnson? Sir Edward dis- cussed the senator's coattails as an indication of how little—sadly little, he thinks—America interests herself in Buropean affairs. “You know,” he said, “that the United States appeared to Europe in the middle of the war like a comet of surpassing brilliance and power. You shed light on our affairs, you exer claed a decisive influence upon them, and then you completely disappeared. “Bometimes the astronomers, or perhaps I should call them the astrologers, tell ps that atsome fur ‘Twelve-year-old Raymond Taylor, above, is counted on as a stellar witness in the case of Mrs. Nettie Case Taylor, mother of six children, held on a charge of murder at Waterloo, N. ¥., for the killing of her husband Frank.
