...happened as arranged. At an early hour on Sunday morning, just late enough to miss the Sunday morning papers and in time to give the reporters a full day to write a florid account of the event for Monday's packets, Mlle. Roseray waded into a small and shallow Central Park pond, splashed. A man dashed, fully garbed, toward the floundering female, who struggled away from him through the broken ice. "Mister, Mister, let me alone," she cried, but eventually permitted herself to be taken to the Lexington Avenue Hospital. Here, Mlle. Roseray was treated by a Dr. Martin...

...mind companionate marriage is the debasement of a sacred institution. Frankly it is a lot of trash, and I am convinced that most of the people who profess to believe in it and who uphold it are hypocritical and shallow," stated Mae Murray, gorgeous blond Paramount movie star, in an interview last night with a CRIMSON reporter, after having just answered her curtain calls at the Metropolitan. "In order that this may not sound contradictory," she continued, "when one considers my several marriages, I can only say that I have always held matrimony sacred, and consider it indispensable to ultimate...
