Debbie Reynolds To File Divorce Suit Attorney Plans To File Divorce Suit HOLLYWOOD. (UPD— Actresssinger Debbie Reynolds may file for divorce from singer Eddie Fisher within the next few days, her attorney said today. Attorney Frank B. Belcher, representing the petite mother of two, said he planned to “get the ball rolling" shortly toward a divorce action, depending on talks with Fisher's attorney. "First there must be some negotiations,” Belcher said. The lawyer promised earlier that no one would be spared in the divorce suit if it was necesary "to protect the interests” of Debbie, 26, and her two children, Carrie, 2, and Todd, 7 months. Presumably, the attorney was prepared to include Elizabeth Taylor as a corespondent in the case with a detailing in court of her New York dates with Fisher. However, the likelihood of a court battle was discounted by friends of the 30-year-old singer who felt that Fisher wou’> eek a quick divorce. Fisher, boyish former favorite of the bobby soxers, accepted “full responsibility" for the break up of his marriage, once publicized by press agents as the "Ideal" wedding of the “young douple next door.” Debbie blamed “what heppened in New York” for her marital troubles but Fisher said the breakup would have come even if he had never known Miss Taylor. A face-to-face meeting of the couple on the stage of the Hollywood Bowl Saturday night was avoided when both Debbie and Eddie cancelled their appearance on a charity program. Both were reported ill. Eddie was suffering tom an apparently minor blood disease. Miss Reynolds "was - advised by her doctor not to make the appearance although she said earlier that she would. Miss Taylor was in seclusion at the home of her agent and wasn't talking. Earlier, she had offered the opinion that Debbie and Eddie “would destroy each other" if they went back together.

Nine Teenage Boys Sentenced In London Boys Are Sentenced After Race Rioting LONDON (UPD— Nine teenag; “Teddy Boys" each were sentenced to four? years jail today for savage attacks on five colored men during what they called “a nigger-hunting expedition." The sentences imposed in famed “Old Bailey” court were by far the most severe yet handed down in connection with the ugly race riots which erupted late ... last month in London’s tough Notting Hill district. The court was told that the attack by the nine Teddy Boys Aug. 24 sparked the bottle - throwing race riots which kept London in an uproar for nearly a week. The court was also told that the nine youths, seven of them aged 17, one 18 and one 20, deliberately set out in the early hours of the morning on what they told police was a “nigger - hunting expedition." - ... ...... They went by car to the Notting Hill district and attacked Negroes with “iron bars and other weapons." All of the victims were taken to hospital but have since recovered. Justice Sir Cyril Salmon told the youths at this morning’s Old Bailey trial: “You nine men formed yourselves into a gang and set out on a cruel and vicious manhunt. You armed yourselves with iron bars and other weapons and your quarry was any man, provided there were not more than two of them together, whose skin happened to be a different color from your ! own.”* “Yoff are a minute and Insignif- ■ icant section of the population who have brought shame upon the district in which you live and have filled the whole nation with horror, indignation and disgust." All nine youths pleaded guilty to the charges against them. 14 Persons Killed In Wreck In Germany BONN, Germany (UPD — Seventy persons were in hospitals today with serious injuries suffered when a cog railway they were riding careened down a mountainside and overturned, killing 14 passengers.

(UPD — The United Steelworkers of America opened its convention today with a call to arms from its officers who warned anti - labor forces are out to destroy the union by turning its own members against it. The biting tone of the report reflected the growing tension between the .union and the steel industry which must reach an agreement on a new contract in about eight months. The report suggested the 1,250*.000 - member union may be squaring off for., a bitter battle with the steel industry next year when its current three - year contract expires. In a report presented at the opening session of the five - day gathering, the officers said the future of the union was “seriously menaced” by an all-out attack on labor and a recession which may have been “man - made" to strike a blow at unionism. The report also defended the increase in dues two years ago which touched off a revolt that for a time threatened the leadership of president David I .J. McDonald. Tire emphasis on unity also suggested concern about some of the bickering that has plagued the higher echelon of the giant, .steel union. "In two short years since the last convention in Los Angeles. . . hoizons have darkened to a point where our very future is seriously menaced,” the report said. It charged the labor movement was the target of an all - out drive designed to force unions to accept sub - standard contracts in future negotiations. It cited particularly what it termed "the old foes of unionism” —the National Association of Manufacturers and the United States Chamber of Commerce.

Annual Session Os U. N. Opens Tuesday General Assembly In Annual Session UNITED NATIONS (UPD-Sec-retary of State John Foster Dulles and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko led a Small army of top diplomats to New York for the opening Tuesday of the 13th annual session of the General Assembly. Dulles said on his arrival from Washington Sunday night the session, opening after weeks of crisis in the Formosa Strait, “will be perhaps the most important that has been held for years.” "There will be vital problems of consolidating peace which are brought to the fore by the Soviet backing of the Chinese Communist aggression,” he said. Dulles had made it clear previously the United States would not be surprised if Russia tried to level aggressor charges at the United States. Gromyko was silent on his arrival at Idlewild Airport from Moscow. The China crisis is not on the 72-item agenda proposed for the delegates of 81 countries at their 1958 meeting. But it could be handed to them in an emergency at almost any time during the three-month assembly. The Middle East, disarmament, outer space and another attempt to seat Red China in the United Nations were among the major items for debate. Francis O. Wilcox, assistant U. S. secretary of state for international organizations, predicted in a speech in New York Sunday the United States again would beat back attempts to admit the Chinese Communists. “ ~~~ Goshen Man Killed As Car Hits Tree GOSHEN, Ind.
