HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 6. UP Two husky bodyguards were assigned today to protect Ruth Etting. one of the "sweethearts" of the Blues singing era, who complained to the district attorney that her divorced husband threat ened to kill her. She received the threat by telephone Tuesday night, she said, and was so frightened by it that she did not learn where ner former husband was.

She assumed that he was in New York. lie is Martin Snyder, a Chicago sportsman and familiar figure of the New York night clubs. She divorced bim last Nov. 30 ou the grounds of cruelty. After the divorce, Miss Etting announced her retirement from a singing career that began at the Marigold Cafe in Chicago's South Side in 1922, and reached the heights of stage, radio and phonograph recording, and later won her a place in the movies.

Snyder, who had been her manager, was reported to have been seeking a reconciliation when he ealled Miss Eating by telephone. Miss Etting said she was certain that he had been drinking before he called. District Attorney Buron Fitts sent a telegram to Thomas E. Dewey, district attorney in New York, asking information on Snyder's movements. He also said he would inquire as to whether an interstate threat by telephone was in violation of Federal law.

At the time of their marriage, 16 years ago, Miss Etting was earning $35 a week as a chorus girl and costume designer. Her efforts to sing were considered a joke then, while the more turbulent jazz was in vogue. Snyder had become her manager, and there was a suggestion of his idea in Miss Ettings stunt that won her fame. She began by impersonating a baritone. District Attorney Unmoved.

NEW YORK. Jan. 6. UP District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey, asked if he had received a request irom is Angeles authorities to furnish information concerning a threat allegedly telephoned Ruth Etting, said today: "I never comment on publicity stunts." ANOTHER BABY, NO.
