LOS ANGELES, March 22.—Noah Beery's pot of gold is empty. Filled during the heydey of his career as the screcn's leading and highest-paid “villain,” the storeplace of his wealth has been visited too often—and, according to Beery him- self, too freely. ‘The actor recently was sued for non- payment of a $2,000 doctor bill by Dr. Ross Moore. Beery, at present in the East, lost the case by default. The one-time star’s answer, typed by himself because he couldn't afford a lawyer to represent him, was filed with the court. “Today I haven't the money for liv- ing expenses,” it said. “I am behind since the 15th on my family's living expenses, haven't the money for my own hotel rent, can’t hire a lawyer (owe my old law firm over $2,000) and wish to throw myself on the mercy of the court.” THE EVENING UNHAPPY FATHER LEAPS TODEATH WITH BABY SON Sued for Divorce by Wife, He Leaves Notes Professing His Love for Her.
