Miss Reed, well known aa a Ziegfeld beauty and because of her marital adventures, was granted decree by Judge Bullivan in the su- perior court here October 21 from Willlam T. Young, an automobile man of Indianapolls. The record shows that cruelty was the ground for divorce. Young and Miss Reed were mar- ried late on the night of February 24, 1924. Following the ceremony the former Follies girl was quoted as mying she was going to find “a little bit of a flat in the suburbs and keep house. That was what she did. Bhe lived with her husband for some time in an unpretentious flat in Evanston, a Nerth Bhore suburb, and when his business required that he move to Indianapolis, she went along. “It wasn't the smaller town that caused the divorce,” Miss Reed #aid yesterday, as quoted by today's Herudld and Examiner. “In fact, I really enjoyed it. It was just—oh, T don’t know—you can't expect any marriage to last forever, can you? Bill is a sweet kid, and we were happy for three years. Then we separated and I got a divorce. “I don't know whether I'll get married again or not. I always do, s0 I suppose T will.” No alimony was asked, the ree. ords indicating a settlement had been made. Miss Rced's first husband was | Ollic Debrow, an actor, from whom she was divorced.
