LILIAN HÄRVEY

INTERVIEWED

Mystery Of Ring On Wedding Finger

44

Southampton, Feb. 9: Miss Lillan Harvey, the British flim star, who has returned to appear in British pictures after cancelling her Hollywood - con- tract, is wearing on the third finger of her left hand a ring of gold with a large sapphire,

I noticed them when talking with her on the deck of the liner, and mentioned to her that for a long time both Hollywood and London had hinted that she had contracted a secret wedding.

with me

Miss Harvey agreed that the ring of platinum and dia- monds was in every respect similar to the recognised type of wedding ring, and that the second Ting resembled those worn by a girl after she had become engaged.

But she refused to admit that any rumours about a wedding or engagement were true,

Good Luck Tokens

cannot tell you," she said. "why I am wearing these rings ex- cept that they are both tokens of good luck.

"I am not "superstitious" and I do not see why I should not be wearing them on what is known as the

wedding or engagement finger.

any rate, I will make a sporting bet of a thousand dollars with you that you cannot find out about any wedding.”

She added casually: "It seems very absurd, but the diamond and platinum ring came out of a Christmas "pudding.”

An Elaborate. Party

I suggested that it must have been a very elaborate Christmas party. She agreed."

The reports in London and New khave linked up Miss Harvey's ame with that of Willy Fritsch, he German star.

She would not deny that he had asked her if they could' get mar- ried.
