DEMPSEY'S WIFE WANTS
TO FOllOW CAREER
RENO, April 14. (/P)—Dempsey
admitted through his manager,
he is here for the purpose of ob
taining a divorce. He was sent
here by a wire from Estelle Tay
lor, motion picture actress.
Manager Leonard Sachs said,
“Dempsey still sincerely loves his
wife. She desires a stage and op
eratic careed and she felt that
Dempsey is in her way in this re
spect. She asked for divorce. He
politely stepped out from his other
engagements and came here. The
divorce complaint will be very mild
in character—probably alleging
incompatibility. It is expected that
the wife will make no contest.
The couple have already settled
their property affairs.”
Dempsey said he always wanted
a home and family. This is im
possible under the present condi
tions.
The wife, Estelle Taylor, still
does not make any comments.
