Her case was Initiated In May, 1973, and the final decree of annulment came from the tribunal office in late June of this year. It was found that her first husband's personal difficulties, with roots predating the marriage, had prevented him from living up to his spoken words of commitment. Mrs, Heinbuch received the letter on a Tuesday, On Saturday of that week, "we were married Catholic," she said, more than 11 years after the civil ceremony. The next day Mr.

and Mrs. Heinbuch received communion. She and her husband and the four children live in a homey row house on Whistler avenue in Southwest Baltimore. Mr. Heinbuch and his wife are active in church.

He is an usher-lector (reader for mass); she is a member of the Sodality and the choir; both belong to the fund-raising committee, and she has been invited to become secretary of the parish council. How does it feel to be accepted within her church once more? Mrs. Heinbuch was silent for a few moments. Then she said she could find no words. "There are just feelings." MARRIAGE, from 1)1 themselves and establish a one-to-one relationship with anybody else.

Incom-patability can stem also simply from "a lack of maturity" in one or both part-ners. Perhaps "they just haven't grown up." Sometimes there is no serious disturbance in the emotional make-up of either partner but their personalities clash. Thus had official attitudes undergone considerable change along those lives by the time Lenora Heinbuch finally mustered courage to make another attempt to secure an annulment. Father Mueller gave her immediate encouragement, arranged for her to appear before the tribunal and because, in her own words, she was "scared to death," he accompanied her there. She found tribunal officials themselves warm and sympathetic.

Annulment cases require at least two witnesses who have known the spouses before and during their marriage. One who appared was the mother of the petitioner's first husband. Mrs. Heinbuch retains no bitterness from that impetuous marriage. Her feeling for her first husband is one of pity for his warm up jou wh our ow prices Hooks Three publishable novels from Fiction Collective a- sa aa c.

The scenes set before World War II are most successful, powerfully evoking petit bourgeois Jewish life during Anschluss without ever stepping outside the disturbed hero's fantasies. But the scenes in America grow redundant and tedious and the point the novel seems to be making in its elliptical way that chiidhood traumas are lasting and can't be expunged by pilgrimages to new worlds is not quite interesting enough to justify the length to which Spielberg goes to illustrate it. B. H.

Friedman's fourth novel, "Museum," is about the heir to a great American fortune who is trying to defend his late father's dream of a museum of living art against a board of wealthy trustees, who want to turn it into a museum of dead art. The least experimental and most intellectually stimulating of the three books, Friedman's novel poses some interesting questions about the functions of museums and offers some credible fly-on-the-boardroom-wall views of the way such institutions are run. So what we have here are three perfectly publishable novels each of the interesting enough in its own way, each of them seriously flawed but nothing of extraordinary literary merit, high seriousness, quality or inventiveness (to take the terms of Suckenick's manifesto), and certainly nothing to surpass in these respects simply dozens of novels put out by 'the publishing industry" during the last year despite the growing pressure of "exorbitant financial than Baumbach's third novel (the first two having been brought out by "commercial" publishers), an oft-married, oft-separated "American student, sometime soldier, comedian, film-maker, revenger, driven in conflicting directions by dream-haunted ambition a hostage to the habits of rerunning the dead past in the cause of waking from the dream reimagines his life as if it were a cross between a Marx brothers movie and a comicstrip of "Bonnie and Clyde" as rendered by William Burroughs. And it has a certain verve, does "Reruns." Baumbach has more voices than Willie the Whale, more accents than the people at Berlitz, a gift for parody, a detector for cliche. The corners of my mouth turned up when Baumbach's hero gets caught in a movie theater showing "Marty Meets the King of Kings" are nailing Marty to a cross in the back of a meat market, an exalted (perhaps fatuous) look on his face.

'Hey Marty gasped, 'tell the guys, will you, that in America anything is possible' they twitched when Baumbach's hero is drafted because America has "declared an undeclared war." But the corners of my mouth could only take so much of this and when I gradually discovered that there isn't any clear point of Baumbach's "Reruns" or if there is, that it lay beyond my desire to apprehend it they turned sharply down. Peter Spielberg's "Tvvid-dledum Twaddledum" is not so funny. Nor is it meant to be.

Secondly, believe what Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 1:20, "For no matter how many promises God has made, they are 'yes' in Christ."

You trust God's promise of forgiveness and you'll find His promises of guidance, protection and aid will surely follow. that all those enjoying God's favor have no problems.

The scriptures, as well as church history, indicate that some of the greatest saints had the greatest trials. God has no blacklist because the scriptures say He is not willing that any perish.

It was scheduled to premiere in Baltimore, canceled and rescheduled December 9.

The show at the Shubert Theater had eight more days to run. The theater had considered using an understudy to Miss Davis, but decided to cancel the show because "people wanted to see Miss Davis," a theater spokesman said.
