Hawdiian Moon and an Army Uniform Caused Judy to Elope
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
HOLLYWOOD, June 18-—It
United Press Hollywood Correspondent
was a combination of a hand-
some uniform and a caressing Hawaiian moon which caused her to elope
in Honolulu with Army Corporal James H. Riple,
today.
,» Judy Canova reported
“I don’t know which hit me on the head the hardest,” Miss Canova said, “that uniform of Mr. Ripley, or that soft moon. .
“Anyhow I got hit on the head and he got hit on the head and we upped and got married and now my poor groom is in the jail house. And I love him so.”
Hauled Off to Jail
It seems that when the moon batted Corporal Ripley on the brow, he was A. W. O. L. He managed to marry movie star Judy, all right, but he’d hardly had time to give her his first kiss before the military police hauled him off to the clink. - These facts and others Miss Canova revealed as she returned to ker studio. She arrived yesterday in San Francisco aboard a Hawiian Clipper and flew to Hollywood.
Went to Hawaii to Rest
Miss Canova, whose press agents call her the “Jenny Lind of the Ozarks,” though she’s never been any closer to them than Peoria, Ill, said she had to leave her husband behind bars because she was scheduled - to start a new movie immediately. She said it was entitled “Slap Happy.” ; She said this was not to be taken personally In fact, she said, she went to Hawaii to rest up from the exertion of making a picture called “Scatterbrain.” This title, she said, should not be applied to
