Multi millionairess widow Estelle Auguste broke off her engagement to former heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey in New York after a quarrel over inviting Kirk Douglas to their Florida wedding.

Stateside Slot Dealer Not Required to Register
The Supreme Court, in a 5 to 4 decision, held that a slot machine dealer whose business operates entirely within one state cannot be compelled to register with the U S attorney general. The ruling limits enforcement of the 1951 federal gambling law which bans interstate shipment of machines except to jurisdictions where legal. The decision counters the Justice Department which argued registration aids enforcement and allows seizure for illegally shipped machines.
