Twin Marriages May Mean Double Trouble,
but They Can Mean Happiness, Too
DIVORCE END OF ONE
FOURSOME; ANOTHER
PROVES 16-YEAR |
SUCCESS ‘
By NEA Service
LOS ANGELES-—When the dup- |
lex domesticity of the Sebring twins
and the Coats twins went squosh'
"in the divorce courts here recently, )
heads wagged knowingly, i
Bad business, {wins marrying, |
the knowing ones nodded. To have |
popping into the house at odd tim- |
vg a brother-in-law who is just a |
carbon copy of your husband is|
nervous business for wives, |
And it is no easier ror a husband |
to see a familiar face with a |
, strange man in restaurant, only to}
be assured. “This ain't your wife, |
mister, this is her twin sister!”
But when twins marry twins, all
these difficulties are doubled, and
- it is commonly believed that the |
odds against success are longer
than a Rocky Mountain freight
train,
. S 0 when the Coats *twins, Louise
May and Lois Maude, announcea
in Seattle a little more than a year i
ago that they were about to marry !
the Sebring twins, Ray Alvin and |
Roy. Calvin, double disaster was |
freely prophesied. [
This One Was Failure |
The case of the marriage of the |
Young twins, W, Byrd and Alvin,
to the Doyle twins, Louise and
Lucy was recalled. It took place |
in Lios Angeleg with the additional
oddity that at the same ceremony
Elmer, a non-twin brother of the
other bridegrooms married Alice
Mc¢Keen, a non-twin unrelated to
the Doyles. |
The twing' marriage lasted only |
iwo months. The divorce cum-i
plaints of the brides were ag near- ;
ly identical as their features, Uu.l
the marriage of the nok-twina |
_sailed along smoothly enough, be- |
ing on even keel at last reports. |
So the wedding of the Coatses !
to the Sebrings was greeted with a|
‘ barrage of crossed fingers. {
. So They Separated '
And sure enough, less than a yvear |
\ after the marriage, on December |
3 27, 1934, they separated, The sub
sequent divorce coiup:aints of the |
#twin brides against the handsome |
4 young marines they had married |
. were very close to carbon copies |
Lois charged Roy with non-sup- |
i+ port and cruelty, specifying that |
he boasted that he was head of the |
house and tried to force her to |
eat, cook, dress and sieep accord- |
. ing to his own ideas. |
She added that once Roy order
' ed heér to bed at 7:30 p. m, when
. guests were present. and bopper
‘ her when she objected. She alse
. ' npoted that Ray imported to their
+ home some of the vocaoulary or
© the drill sergeant. :
Louise charged oy also \\'itn'
non-support and cruelty, and spe
cified that he was domineering, |
overbearing, and unreasonable h.?
~ his marital demands. . There werei
. no ;ch{i!dren of either marriage. ;
iL e ?
: Here's Counter-Argument :
5 is the case against twlw |
i %es complete? By no means!
i Bailiff, bring in the Loveless twins,
- whose life ils a negation not only
_ of the theory, but of their own
Jt naines. ;
i Here are Herman and Harman
© Loveless, twins, who married Lela |
| and Lola Teague at Carthage, Mo., |
gon October 6, 1919, They are stil)s
__married to the same girls. Further, |
all four are still inseparable com- |
‘panions. |
The Loveless twins met the|
Teague twins when all were IG!
years old. They were neighbors in!
“the Carthage region, and were!
thrown together by the novelly of |
being twins. They were close |
friends for nine yeur: before mar- |
riage tied them still closer, |
The Lovelesses and the Teagues |
looked so much alike, and still do, |
that they admit even they them
selves sometimes misplace an odd !

‘When they married they all mov
ed into the same house. The girls |
dress exactly alike, and cither al
ways buys two of any article o:
clothing she selects while shop

If one family buyvs a car, the
other must have one just like it

But Herman and Harman Loveless, twins, have amply demon
etrated that twins can happily marry twins, for their marriage
with Lela and Lola Teague has been a 16-year success.
Husbandry of the U. 8. Depart
ment of Agriculture, and the gov
ernment usually sends them out on
the same assignments, They are
now in California, testing cattle tor
Uuncle Sam.
Successful marriages? Well, they
have been working at it 17 years!
Which goes to show that success
ful marriages of twins are like
doing the double somersault on the
tight wire—it's difficult, but not
impossible.

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
IN HOLLYWOOD
WITH PAUL HARRISON
NEA Service Staff Correspondent.
HOLLYWOOD.—The Main Stem |
of tdalkietown s not quite tlwi
glamorous thoroughfare that 3
many people irhagine it. .\lost{
times you can tour its 5% miles
without seeing a single movie star. |
Nor do film scouts lurk in duur-!
ways to spot likely new material. |
Hollywood Boulevard is an
over-grown Main street gurnishud}
with carnival touches —the mid- |
way of Moronia. Souvenirs and'
Novelties. Get your home-town‘
paper here. Gypey tea room. Your
favorite's star perfumes. Cock- |
tails, 20 cents. Hand-tailored
glacks and shorts. Going in now
for a triple-fexture, all-star pro
gram; all seats 25 cents. |
Girls in riding habits, girls in |
pajamas, girls in $4.95 copies ut‘i
their favorites’ frocks. Men in
“annels and polo shirts, men in |
boots, men in Norfolk jackets,
marcon shirts, vellow pants, and
suede shoes. Boulevard golfers
who mnever play golf. Agents,
gamblers, musicians, actors-at-
Hberty. Slick-haired fellows of no
known occupation standing in in
terminable huddles on the corners.
Bargains
Tourists hoping for a peek at a
celebrity or two. Searching faces,
driving slowly and buniping fend
ers, they jam traflic.
The business, or midway, sec
tion of Hallywood Boulevard is
orly a mile and a half long. Build
ings are mostly one and two
sitory shops, with a few taller ho
tels, office buildings., and depart
ment stores scattered along the
way.
Scores of shops for women’s
things, mostly tiny, nearly all
cheap. Hats, $1.48. Dresses, two
for $7. But all with Hollywood
labels. Only extras and,6 office
girls and tourists patronize these
places: the stars buy in the up
pity style salons of Beverly Hills.
In every block are cut-rate
drug stores, all featuring cosmet
ics. Five beauty colleges flourish
in flashy second-story quarters.
There seems to be a big demand
for expert dye-mixers, eyebrow
pluckers, and permanent-wavers
in the colony’s almost countless
‘heauty shops. Or shoppes.
News From Home
Four out-of-town newspaper
gtands reap rtortunes for their
owners, for only one Hollywoods
‘man in six is a native son. There
‘are several pet shops, including
.one operated by a gent who calls
-himself Trader Horn, jr. Shoe re
‘pair shops are in abundance;
‘movie-job hunters make good
- customers.
' Huge shiny cars are for rent by
~one entrepreneur. His patrons
L are almost exclusively those who
‘want to make a plushy impression
cocktail party. The most costly
cars, with chauffeurs, are engaged
for SIOO a day.
Free Library—Cheap Shows
On one corner is the main pub
lic library. The head librarian
reports that non-fiction is favored,
but this is due largely to a con-
siderable amount of research done
there by employes of the studio. |
A Dbulletin board advises that for- |
eigners, of whom there are many |
in Hollywood, can get free in- |
struction in lunglish evervy night |
at the high school.
Film theaters are scultcrudi
along the boulevard, mostly 201
ind 30-cent houses. One adver- |
tises itself as a theater of ‘re- |
quest pictures” and shows old|
films, much to the discomfiture uf[
many current stars, who frequent- |
ly are seen only as bit-players in
these revivals. There are only u\'c.)‘L
legitimate theaters, and one is.
usually dark. {
Nickels and Dimes |
The two 10-cent stores always |
arve erowded. Buyers of old guld:
are well represented, and they geti
a lot of watches. The boulevard |
has no pawn shops, because of an |
erainence confining them to an- !
other section. If permitted a!
dozen would open overnight.
Restaurants range from Sardi's,
where a ham sandwich costs 65
cents, to, dairy Junches where !
extras dueck in for 10-cent plulvs;
of beans. The Montmartre Case,
once the popular haunt of the
silent screen’s topnotchers — with |
dinner at 85 a plate—now is a
cut-rate catery with a full course
dinner for 50 cent-. !
Hollywood Boulevard has only |
one factory—making brassieres, ‘
