FAIRBANKS DENIES PLAN OF DIVORGE Reconciliation Actor’s Aim, Though Miss Crawford Calls It Hopeless. By the Associated Press. HOLLYWOOD, March 18.—Douglas Fairbanks, jr., said today he has no in- tention of going to Paris to divorce his actress-wife, Joan Crawford, nor does he plan to marry Mrs. Jorgen Dietz, former wife of the chemical engineer who has instituted against him a $60,000 suit charging alienation of affections and false imprisonment. “It is too silly to discuss and it is absolutely untrue,” Fairbanks said of a dispatch from Copenhagen, Denmark, which quoted the newspaper Berlingske Tildende as saying Mrs. Dietz had as-) serted the actor would marry her after the divorce. Fairbanks said any European trip he might have planned “would naturally have been planned with Mrs. Fair- banks.” Wife Irreconciliable. While Fairbanks was hopeful of ef- fecting a reconciliation with his wife, Miss Crawford said she doubted whether she and her husband would ever live together again. She had deserted her Brentwood home today and planned to to a secret retreat known to no xcept her husband. * i Ve call this a trial separation,” 5h91 “but I doubt if we cver come to-| We are simply unhappy | together and for a year have been on the verge of a break. We have been saving the announcement until both of us were finished with pictures. “There is no other man or woman & the case.” The suit against her husband had nothing to do with her announcement of the separation, Miss Crawford re- ated, and she said she would help gfm “in any way I can.” She said there was no immediate prospect of a divorce. Fairbanks, reiterating he had been subjected to a “blackmail” attempt and there was no “other woman” involved in his married life, said he would send his wife flowers, call her up on the tele- phone every daw send her telegrams and make every effort possible to rewin | her love. Meeting Is Arranged. “We are still in love,” said Doug, jr. “I love Joan and I feel she loves me. T called her up and asked her to go cut with me next week. She agreed to ac- company me.” District Attorney Buron Fitts said he had not received a request from Fair- banks to prosecute Dietz and added “no criminal action” against the engineer ‘was contemplated at this time. Fairbanks, in denying Dietz’s charges, said Dietz had attempted to sell him a necklace valued at $300 for $6,000. The actor said he was restrained from prose- cuting Dietz when the engineer, after questioning by the district attorney, tearfully pleaded he wanted the money 50 he might marry Lucy Doraine, screen actress. Everett Ball of Dietz's counsel said his client had called him by telephone from a city near the Mexican border, saying he and his bride, Miss Doraine, were enjoying their honeymoon. “Dietz was surprised at the announce- ment Fairbanks and Miss Crawford has | separated,” Ball said.

There are strong indications that it is the earliest example whose form has been preserved in the rocks of that great order of animals which includes the corals, jellyfishes and sea anemones, as well as such weird creatures as the Portuguese man-of-war.

Unfortunately most of them have soft bodies such as leave no record in the sea-bottom mud which afterward hardens into rock. The most abundant fossils of the Cambrian pericd have been those of creatures with hard shells such as the trilobites, remotely ances- tral to the present-day crabs. There are also fossil imprints of sponges and of at least one creature which some paleontologists believe to belong to the insect order. The trilobites and the nautiloids were high orders of inverte- brates, highly organized creatures sep- arated by enormous gaps from the primitive sponges. ‘Theoretically it has seemed certain to paleontologists that lower invertebrates representing the intermediate steps must have existed in the early Cambrian L = N Beautiful 100% Mohair § Are | had not devel lest qun;ll]:y ‘which in one 'of Roddy’s miscellaneous assort- ments of fossils that the strange hy- drozoa specimen was spotted, but the fossil was so incomplete that its true nature was not at first recognized. Last jear he secured a better example and it was submitted to Dr. Rudolph Ruede- mann, State paleontologist of New York, who identified it after a consid- erable process of elimination. The Udiscovery is of further interest because quite similar fossils have turned up recently in Cambrian beds in Po- land. This, however, is believed to be the earliest of the hydrozoan stock to turn up in the North American lower Cambrian and promises to shed con- siderable light on the evolutionary pro- cess of this great order.
