ELOPENENT WAS ADARK SECRET Bat It Blossomed Out When the Reporters Heard Chicago, Sept. 13 P—The elope- meat of Gordon Clark, 23, wealthy Chicago yachtsman, and Miss Vir- sinia Bowers 19, of Little Rock, Ark., which was to have been very, | very secret, was consummated yes- terday with all the quictness of a braag band. One of the bridegroom’s friends, impressed with the necessity of keepiug it out of the papers, as the | principals had urged, went to the | press room of the federal building ! and after informing the reporters of what was to take place, sought to bind them to secrecy. “The marriage takes place at 2:30 p. m. in Judge Lindsay's court room,” whispered the friend of the bridegroom. “Doun’t Breath a Word” “The bride is most attractive and it would make a dandy picture, but of course nothing is to be printed in the paper.” And so it happened that when Mr. Clark and Miss Bowers “eloped” they headed a procession consisting of eight reporters, six cameramen and several hundred persons curious to know whose picture was to be taken. The courtroom was packed when the ceremony was preformed. Clark was divorced in 1926 by Mrs. Flor. ence Burkhardt Clark, who charged cruslty, She was given a settlement $25,000. Mr. and Mrs. Clark are to sail tomerrow noon from New York for Eurepe. BELIEYE RESOLUTION WILL SUIT ALL CREEDS Demand Made for Religious Toler- amca by Unitarians is Praised by Paper. Beston, Sept. 13 (UP)—Belief that the resolution for religious tol- erance in political affairs, adopted receatly by the Unitarian Minf%stcrial Union at Deerfield, would be &~ ceptable to every church in the country, including the Roman C: olig church, was expressed editorial- | ly In today's issue of the Christian Register, a unitarian publication, “Our opinfon is, they (all other| churehes) would have expressed themselves just as plainly and em- phatically as the Unitarians did,” the Register said. “In cases, they would probably have gone on record as committing their denominational bodies. “We recall the instance last week when the Methodist Episcopal con- ference in Ohio voted unanimously and, as reported, officially, in favor of Mr. Hoover for president. ~We could not do thst, committing our veople. 8o long as one person dif- fered, and the majority were only infinitesimally less than unanimity, that one person would have just grounds to-protest that he must not be digregarded. His one vote and his right are just as sacred as a thou- sand. We are true to our tradition only when that principle is kept in- violate.” of Observe olden Wu Day —Photo by Arcsde Studlo Mr, and Mrs. Freder ok C.
