Divorce Is Obtained by Grace E. Miller
Former Eutaw Avenue Resident Gets Freedom After Bigamist's Conviction
Mrs. Grace E. Miller, formerly of 228 Eutaw avenue, has been granted a final decree of divorce from George Earl Miller, formerly employed in the offices of the RCA Victor Company, Inc.
The decree was granted May 5 by the New Jersey court of chancery. The suit was instituted March 27, 1931. Subsequently, Miller was adjudicated in contempt of court for failure to comply with an order of Vice Chancellor Edmund B. Leaming directing the payment of alimony.
Shortly after the filing of the divorce suit, Miller was charged with bigamy by his wife, and extradition proceedings were taken by the Pennsylvania authorities. On October 23, 1931, Miller was removed from the Camden county jail to the Delaware county jail at Media, pending trial. At the trial, Miller denied he had ever been married to Grace E. Miller, but the testimony showed that they were not only legally married November 24, 1924, but for many years lived together in legal matrimony in Camden.
The proofs further showed that on March 7, 1931, Miller went through a marriage ceremony before a magistrate near Media, with Jean Lukoff, then of 830 Haddon avenue, this city, and with whom he subsequently lived as man and wife at 141 North Thirty-fourth street and later at the Haddon avenue address.
A petit jury found Miller guilty of bigamy on January 8, this year. The judge at Media sentenced Miller to no less than one year and not more than two years in jail and fined him $500.
Mrs. Miller was represented in her divorce suit by Marshal H. Diverty, of this city.

School Pals in Army Together: Alfred Peak, Joseph Thompson, Robt. McClintock
Quinton, Thompson, Peak and McClintock, Teen-age Volunteers
Four former Woodrow Wilson High students—pals throughout school—have joined the Army Air Corps. They left yesterday for Fort Dix.
The youths, all student leaders at Wilson, are Henry “Butch” Quinton, 18, of 369 North 34th street; Alfred Peak, 18, of 556 North 34th street; Joseph Thompson, 19, of 624 State street and Robert McClintock, 18, of 2627 Westfield avenue.
They were graduated last June from Wilson High. For several months they have been planning to join some branch of the nation’s military service—but there was one obstacle. The parents of one wouldn’t give their consent.
However, after much persuasion by the four youths, consent was granted and Monday they enlisted in the Air Corps. Several weeks ago they sponsored and directed the first reunion of their graduating class. It was one of the most successful alumni gatherings ever held at the school.
Quinton, an employe of the Courier-Post editorial department, was active in class affairs and photographer for the school magazine at Wilson. He also served as sports editor of the yearbook and played junior varsity football.
Peak was employed by a local real estate firm. He was president of the 1941 Wilson graduating class and was voted “most dependable,” “most popular” and “boy who did most for school” in the class poll.
An apprentice machinist at RCA Manufacturing Co., Thompson was one of the most popular members of the 1941 Wilson class. He played a leading role in several class projects. McClintock was employed at a local paper manufacturing plant. He was business manager of the yearbook, played in the band and was a member of the varsity soccer team at Wilson. He received the physics prize at commencement exercises.

Victim of Melancholia May Die From Bullet Wound
With a bullet wound in his temple William Schweitzer, 20 years old, of 3002 River avenue, East Camden, is in Cooper Hospital, Camden, in a serious condition, although he is reported to have chances for recovery. Despite his youth, Schweitzer has been a victim of melancholia for some time past and Sunday night he was especially despondent. Instead of retiring he went out for a walk and took with him a thirty-two calibre revolver.
Sometime about midnight three youths saw him staggering about Thirty-sixth and River avenue.

What’s in with the “in” crowd? When it comes to clothes, South Jersey teens seem to prefer the casual look. The two Cramer Hill youngsters on our cover are dressed for a party, believe it or not.
Jean Ott, 15, of 818 34th Street, wears cutoff dungarees, a poor boy sweater and sandals. Her “Boston Monkey” partner Gary Mason, 17, of 14 Stewart Street, favors an open-collared pin-striped shirt with the cuffs rolled under.
Both sport the long hair and bangs popular with both boys and girls in the area.

Robert Odonaly and his brother Joseph, aged 9 and 10 years respectively, living at 1154 North Thirty-fourth street, East Camden, were on the shore watching the Philadelphia lad disporting himself in the water. Suddenly the lad threw up his hands and cried for help. Both East Camden boys had been forbidden to bathe, but seeing the plight of the struggling form, they plunged in and made a desperate effort to reach the drowning lad before he disappeared beneath the waters.
Policeman Palmer, of the Third District and Frederick Hout, of 1221 Oxford street, Philadelphia, who were close by at the time, also plunged in the water but were too late to reach the lad. The drowning occured about four o’clock and the body was recovered at six. Attempts were made to resuscitation, but these were futile.
The body was given in charge of the lad’s mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Devlin.
The Devlins came over to the North Cramer Hill shore yesterday to spend the day in a club house occupied by an aunt of the unfortunate lad. Coroner Harry F. Bushey gave a certificate of death from drowning.
The two Odonaly boys were pulled from the water in an exhausted condition.

Two Brothers in Raided Cafe, Each Insists He is the Owner. Camden's own Damon and Pythias, owners of a soft drink parlor in which federal agents claim they found high-power beer on sale, reached a dramatic compromise today. Martin and Joseph Seigle are held in $500 bail each as proprietors of the "parlor" at 2046 Federal street, charged with sale and possession of drinks not soft enough to meet approval of federal authorities. Both live at 7 South Thirty-fourth street. Prohibition agents Saturday raided their place, the Marlton cafe. "We're both proprietors," they told the commissioner. Which is why both Martin and Joseph Seigle were held for court, instead of only one of them.
Two Brothers in Raided Cafe, Each Insists He is the Owner
Camden's own Damon and Pythias, owners of a soft drink parlor in which federal agents claim they found high-power beer on sale, reached a dramatic compromise today.
Martin and Joseph Seigle are held in $500 bail each as proprietors of the "parlor" at 2046 Federal street, charged with sale and possession of drinks not soft enough to meet approval of federal authorities. Both live at 7 South Thirty-fourth street.
Prohibition agents Saturday raided their place, the Marlton cafe, on a search warrant obtained after an alleged "buy."
Theodore A. Harris, enforcement chief, claims he found 7 half-barrels of high-power beer and a small quantity of liquor.
"Who's the owner of this place?" he asked Joseph Seigle.
"I am," said Joseph.
In walked Martin.
"I'm the owner, lock me up," said Brother Martin.
"He is not. I'm the owner. Lock me up," pleaded Brother Joseph.
"Boys, boys, please," remonstrated Harris, "you're both under arrest."
Today they faced U. S. Commissioner Wynn Armstrong each still insistent on saving the other but unable to reach a decision.
So they compromised.
"We're both proprietors," they told the commissioner.
Which is why both Martin and Joseph Seigle were held for court, instead of only one of them.

Mother Rushes to Street Too Late To Save Boy from Death by Truck. An East Camden mother rushed from her home last night to prevent her two-and-a-half-year-old son from playing in the street only to see him injured fatally under the wheels of a truck. The boy, John Bowers, of 114 South Thirty-fourth street, was struck at the intersection of South Thirty-fourth and Mickle streets and died of a fractured skull two hours later in Cooper Hospital.
