"Names make news." Last week these names made this news:

Motoring through Beaconsfield, England, Manhattan's clever Lawyer Fanny Holtzmann careened into a telephone pole, escaped with bruises. "To end the guessing game" which followed her settlement of Princess Irina Alexandrovna Youssoupov's libel suit based on the film Rasputin and the Empress (TIME, Aug. 20), Attorney Holtzmann announced that her client would receive $250,000 and costs from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

In Philadelphia Charles E, Duryea

(Stevens-Duryea), 72, celebrated his golden wedding anniversary by showing lantern slides of his first "gas buggies" (1892), appealing to automobile manufacturers to simplify their motors, revolutionize their designs, eliminate the back seat bounce. Said Inventor Duryea: "With the engine in the rear the seats would come between the front and rear axle and not over the rear axle as in most modern automobiles."

In the hands of contractors, ready for razing, was Palm Beach's straggling yellow 40-year-old Royal Poinciana, most famed of Florida hotels, largest frame building in the U. S.

Admiral of the Fleet David Beatty, Earl Beatty of the North Sea and of Brooksby, who took half his title from the waters where he fought the Battle of Jutland, half from the Leicestershire estate where he rides to hounds, announced that the estate, 13th Century Brooksby Hall, was up for sale.

Mrs. Vincent Gebardi, her blonde hair braided and wrapped around her head halo-fashion, teed off at Chicago's Lincoln Park in the first round of the Illinois Women's Public Parks golf tournament. In wider Chicago circles Mrs. Gebardi is known as "The Blonde Alibi," and wife of "Machine Gun Jack" McGurn, Public Enemy No. 4. Gangster Vincent Gebardi (alias "Jack McGurn") was suspected of participating in the 1929 St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Pretty Louise Rolfe, just out of high school, took the witness stand at his trial, swore that he had been with her in a hotel at the time. When police held them both for violation of the Mann Act "Machine Gun Jack" married Louise Rolfe. He turned to "organizing union labor," developed an excellent game of golf, last autumn played the first seven holes of the Western Open Championship in one under par, only to have the police arrest him for vagrancy on the eighth tee. No such golfer as her husband, Mrs. Gebardi was eliminated in the first round of last week's tournament, three down on the 16th.

So pleased was the late John Dillinger with the speed and quick getaway of his Ford car that before his death he wrote two testimonial letters to Henry Ford. Said Ford last week: "In one of the letters Dillinger told me he was coming to see me sometime. ... I would like to have seen him."

Early Sunday morning two barred and guarded railroad cars slipped out of Atlanta, carrying the first load of "incorrigible" criminals to bleak Alcatraz Island Prison in San Francisco Bay. Newshawks were very sure that at a window of one car they saw the round, grinning face of Gangster Alphonse Capone.
