Actress Wins Dispute
HOLLYWOOD, May 22 — CP —
Redhaired film star Susan Hay-
ward received court permission
Wednesday to take her nine-year-
old twin sons on location to Utah
despite the objections of her es-
tranged husband, actor Jess Bark-
er. Barker opposed the request be-
fore Superior Judge Herbert B
Walker in nearby Burbank on
grounds that a movie location was
a "three-ring circus" and might
have a bad influence on the boys.
