"MARRIED TO A BRIEFCASE"
MODEL GETS A DIVORCE
DALLAS. Tex. GT) — Attrac
tive Lyn Alger was granted a di
vorce from Rep. Bruce Alger, (R
Tex.), after testifying that she was
“a political widow” who was
married to a briefcase.”
Mrs. Alger, 38, a former model
said she had received cruel and
harsh treatment from the 42
year-old congressman. She told
newsmen that one reason for the
divorce was an attempt by Re
publicans to groom her husband
for Vice President.
“Republican party leaders didn’t
think I had enough education and
family background to be a Vice
President’s wife,” she said.
Alger, a Princeton graduate, is
Texas’ only GOP congressman.
Even if you’re a film fan, it’s
an odds-on bet you can’t name
the first all-talking movie. . . .
It was “Lights of New York,”
made in 1928.
