Linowski, in an effort to prove to the officers that there was no foul play in connection with Mrs. Davis' death, accompanied the state troopers to a Kulpmont garage and pointed out a damaged Cadillac sedan which, he said, was the car that figured in the crash. The automobile pointed out to the officers belonged to Joseph, Bochen-ick, of 635 Spruce street, Linovvski's step-father. It bore evidence of having crashed into a telephone pole, the state police said.

Freeman who presides at the stately courtboute and dispense more scrolled and emblazoned marriage certificates than ye olde time smithy spoke words of the marriage vows. This new Gretna Green of the Southwest has drawn most of it rushing business from California and from the capital of moTiedom in particular. Many film stars, irked by the California law which provides a couple considering matrimony must wait three days before culminating their desires, have taken wing to Yuma nd there had the proverbial knot tied in double-quick time. Among the well-known patrons of Yuma have been Aimee Semple McPberson-Hutton and her choir-singer husband, David, and Gloria Swanson and her latest, Michael Farmer, Irish milltonarre. GIFT A TO MAKE HER HAPPY HOLLYWOOD If vou are tine ofO- those people who have cherished ihe Illusion that marriages are made in heaven the frequency with which Yuma, Arizona, has appeared in the Freeman, who presides at Yuma County Courthouse, has none of the romantic glamour with which tradition clothed the blacksmith of Gretna, but he has married more movie stars and other celebrities In the past few law and wait for the three days, they would probably have forgotten the name of the man they were to marry before the time for the ceremony.

Among those to take advantage of convenient Yuma was Aimee Semple McPherson, the evangelistic oracle of Angelus Temple, who married her choir baritone, David Hutton. Aimee added an extra touch of color to her public eye as the port of departure for the matrimonial barque must years than the romantic anvil-walloper did in his whole lifetime. The reason for Yuma's growing popularity as a runway for endurance TOE flights into the realms of matrimony is not hard to understand. In this age when the world worships at the shrine of Speed the place that can supply a commodity on instant demand, without waiting, gets the business. And Yuma, Arizona, can do just that.

While California law demands that notice of intention to wed be filed at matrimonial take-off by having the ceremony performed in an airplane. Dorothy Mackaill, too, cf the silver screen, recognized the edge that Yuma holds over Hollywood, for she also uttered the fateful "I will" to. the desert air when she married Neil Miller, Stanford University graduate and scion of a wealthy pineapple (not Chicago) planter of Hawaii. The most recent of celebrities to patronize the resort, where a man gce.s in captain of his soul and comes out one cf the crew, was Gloria Swan- cave seemed, to say the least, contradictory to your belief. During the last two or three years Yuma has come to be recognized as a modern edition of the celebrated Gretna Green, where, with convenience and dispatch, the tired business man may hitch his wagon to a star of the Hollywood constellation.

But whereas the original Gretna Green consisted of a smithy, ruled over by a sinewy giant, who hammered out horse shoes when he wasn't applying the balm of matrimony to the wounds inflicted by the darts of Cupid, its modern prototype at Yuma Is everything that the most fastidious pair of lovers could desire. Here, the man who joins a couple that no man may put asunder (with the possible exception of a R.eno judge) does not have to wipe the soot and grime of toil from his hands ron a leathern apron lest he soil the book from which the "wilt thous" and "I wills" are read.
