settlement. The adjournment was ordered by Judge Goodwin J. Knight at the request of Samuel Goldwyn, head of .Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. He told the judge that Miss Astor was i needed on the lot for her current starring picture and if she was kept away by the necessity of being in - eort, production would cease and many actons, extras, and technicians would be thrown out of work temporarily. The adjuorument gave friends of . Isith contestants an opportunity to J attempt a compromise settlement , i that would end the public name-call-i ing on which a witness for MitTs Asi tor testified that four women spent nights in Dr. Thorpe's bedroom and Thorpe’s attorney forced Miss Astor to admit, on cross examination, her extra-marital romance. Judge Knight impounded Mias Astor's diary and told Thorpe's atl torney to <l. liver to him two pages ■ which he had withheld. The diary ■ recounted In purple phrases her I feelings toward Kaufman, and according to intimations of her for- ] mer husband's legal staff, involved the names of some six men prominl.eii'. ill the movie world. Judge ) Knight will decide, when and if the

trial is resumed, how much of the diary will bo admitted into evidence. He said he would admit .only those portions hearing directly on the point of issue—Thorpe's contention that Miss Astor is not a'fit person to have custody of their daughter. 0 YOUTH HONORED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) temoon was: Jack Wainrighlt'e band furnished the music.
