Sought Half -a-Million, Beauty Queen Cut to 6¢ * * Suit of Dorothy Knapp, Former “Miss America” Glorified by Earl Carroll, Against Wealthy “Angel” Turns Out a Damp Squib. | EARL CARROLL, Dororry KNaPR | Wearer of the proud title, America,” a few years ago, | Dorothy Knapp, beautiful showgirl, is today seriously contemplating taking the veil and spending the rest of her life in cloistered seclusion far away from the world, the flesh and Earl Carroll. When Miss Knapp | was “knocking ‘em deml at a time when she was on the pinnacle of pulchritude, Earl, the Knight of the Bath, brought her to Broadway and built her up es a footlight favorite, climaxing her rlllnb 1 [nme with a stellar role in his municnl comedy production, “Fioretta.” It happened that this show was “angeled” (financed to you) by the wealthy Mrs. Frederi urtland Penfield, who makes a hobby of using her millions to dabble such things. Life was just a bowl of straw- berries for Dorothy until Mrs. Penfield saw the show one evening. Then came the raspberries, for the wealthy “‘angel” ordered the noble Earl to dismiss the prize Venus. The result was a law suit against Mrs. Penfield by Dot, charging breach of contract and asking $500,000. But Dorothy’s tears, instead of helping her with the jury, merely ruined her make-up. Furthermore, in a moment of absent-mindedness, she had declared that she had not received her $1,000 salary check for | the last three weeks she worked for Carroll. It required the cashier of the bank " jog her memory into an admission that she had been mis. | taken.
