EDITH MASON DENIES SEPARATION RUMORS Chicago Opera Star and Mate Liv- ing Apart, but Say There Has Been No Rift, By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, January 4-—Both morn- ing newspapers today said that Miss Edith Mason, soprano of the Chicago Civic Opera, and her husband, Dr. Maurice A. Bernstein, were living apart, but that both had strongly denied ru- mors of a separation. ‘The couple were married October 6 of last year, 10 weeks after Miss Mason obtained a divorce from her third hus- band, Giorgio Polacco, director of the Civic Opera. Miss Mason declined to make a state- ment, saying she felt the public could not be interested in her personal life. Dr. Bernstein, who has been living at his Highland Park home, while Miss Mason remains in the town apartment, said he had retired temporarily to the suburbs to carry on work requiring peace and quiet. “I visit my wife often,” the Tribune quoted him as saying, “and I am very much in love with her and hope she still is in love with me.” DR.
