He said this was the “most tremendous decision” of his life, and it involved factors which could not be explained publicly or understood. “i would not say anything to hurt Betty,” he said- “I’m still in love with jher. • . “And I’m making my decisions on my own. I’m not being influenced by anybody. for myself the only I can.”
