IngridiBergman’s Morriagels Annul—led; Will Wed Again

f ROME (Reuters) —- The_mar- lriage of movie director Roberto .Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman was annulled Thursday, freeing the Swedish film star for her third try at matrimony. >

An Italian court upheld Russel- ' lini’s contention that Miss Berg- ’ man’s Mexican divorce from her first husband, Dr. Peter Lind- strom, was not legally complete at the time the Italian director married her in 1950. -

Miss Bergman did not contest the annulment action. She said ' last week she would marry Swed- . ish producer Lars Schmidt it her

marriage to Rossellini was annul-

led.

Rossellini and Miss Bergman must wait 30 days for the court’s decision to become final. The public procutator —.— representa- tive of the state—has until Aug. 9 to appeal the verdict.

The procurator 'said Thursday

, night he would make a complete examination of the court‘s find ings before decidnag Whether to ‘appcai. He said he has made no decision yet.

’ LINKED WITH INDIAN

Miss Bergman and Rosselini were legally separated last No-

. fit-.. .

vember when 'Rosselliui returned fromworlk on a movie in India. During his stay there, his name was linked romantically with gla- morous Indian sc'riptwriter Sonali Das Gupta, who also is married.

Rossellini and Miss Bergman, 40 have three children — a son born in February, 1950, and twin girls born ’in June, 1952. Miss Bergman also has a 19-year-old daughter by her first marriage.

The couple fell in love 'on the lonely island of Stromboli, off southern Italy, in 1949, while film-g ing a movie about the unhappy marriage of a refugee woman to a fisherman. The movie. origin- ally entitled God’s Earth, later was renamed Stromboli.

After Miss Bergman said she was expecting a child, a lengthy wrangle over a property settle- ment delayed her divorce from Lindstrom until after the boy was born. She married Rossellini May 24, 1950.

Thursday’s annulment was the second for Rosselilni. His first marriage, to Marcella de Mar- chis, was annuled in December, 1949, when she told a court she “had not been in full possession of her mental powers" when she married the director.

Heaviest Men In World Dies

BREMEN, Ind. '(AP) — Robert Earl Hughes, possibly the heav-’ lest man in medical history, died Thursday in his trailer home be- side a hospital.

Mrs. Mary Harris, hospital ad- ministrator, said uraemia evi- dently was the cause of the 1,041- pound, 32—year-old man’s death. Uraemia is a kidney disease.

He became ill while travelling with a carnival and was brought to this northern Indiana town Sun- day, “suffering from a variety of ailments, including measles, anda heart condition.

He could not be taken into the hospital building because of his massive bulk, too great for any standard bed. He remained, in his travelling house, built on a truck bed, and nurses climbed a ladder to attend him.

The carnival star was 10 feet two inches around the waist, 40 inches around each upper arm, 'and ‘6 feet tall. ’ ’

Doctors said an attack of whoop- ing cough when Hughes was three months old upset glandular

lilo, Nasser COndemn

D. I I PULA, Yugoslavia (Reuters)- I’residents Tito of Yugoslavia and Nasser of the United Arab Repub- lic Thursday night condemned the division of the world into two antdgonistic blocs and appealed for a summit conference to es- tablish peaceful co-exxstence.

In a statement, the two leaders

also recommended “the imme- diate cessation" of nuclear tests and a halt in the production of nuclear weapons. -, 9 The statement reflected the re- sults of their series of. talks over the last week on Bribni Island, Tito’s North Adriatic summer re- treat. This afternoon, Tito and Nasser left the island with their families for a flew days in the Slovenian mountains.

One of the major points in the statement was a plan for closer political and economic co-"opera-

u tion between Yugoslavia and the

Egypt-Syria regime. Within a few months, it said, delegations would meet to work out closer econ- omic, scientific and technical co- operation. '

soup BASIS

In addition, the statement said, there would be “occasional con- sultation" between the two gov-

ernmgnts on - international pol-

itical issues. It said the present talks would serve as a “solid basis” for promoting political and economic cooperation.

Tito and Nasser plan to return to Brioni this Weekend when Nas- ser is scheduledto sail for home. Tito has accepted Nasser’s invita- tion to visit the EAR—probably during a Middle and Far East tour later this year.

FIVE CENTS

Five Year Proiecl To See 500-600 Miles Paving Done

A program of road building

which will see the mileage of ed

paved roads on Prince Edward Island more than doubled in the next five years was announced yesterday by P r e m i e r A. W. Matheson following a caucus of party members.

The Premier said the program ghich calls for the paving of ome 500-600 miles ls in actuality the fulfillment of a promise made by the late Premier Jones who stated that as soon as the Trans

the Federal Government was completed“ “other parts of the Province .would be paved coma pljmentary to Trans Canada Highway Construction." ‘ The proposed pavin program will cost the Provi e‘ an esti- mated $12,000,000. Premier Matheson said no agreement has n reached as yet with the eral Government I in regard to the “roads to resources" pro- gram. The $7,500,000 which the Province may receive through this source would be in addition to the announced program, he said. ‘ > ‘ SECOND PROGRAM

Foilowlnng closely on the heels of the Rural Electrification program'which .has spanned the major portion of Island rural communities, the road paving project is the second extended program undertaken since Pre- mier 'Matheson came into office in 1953.

At the present time 404 miles of the Island's 3,300 miles ofhigh- way are paved; 1,570 miles are unveiled and ready for paving
