Mrs. Opal Walter Sees Sights With 'Fuddy-Duddy' Because her husband had become a "Fuddy-Duddy," Mrs. Opal Walter, 301 North Illinois street, Anaheim, prominent in VFW auxiliary work, was chosen "queen for a day" on that radio program broadcast from the stage of the Orpheum theater in Los Angeles, on Thursday, March 7. Walter, a fireman here, was just one of the audience of 2,000 in the theater, until Mrs. Walter was chosen "queen." From then on he was the most surprised "Fuddy-Duddy" seen in many a day. Called onto the stage, Walter good-naturedly admitted that Mrs. Walter might be right, but that he was ready to vindicate himself, in view of the fact that he had three days off and a brand new "queen" for a partner. Consequently, a wihrlwind, 24-hour tour of the gayest restaurants and night clubs in Los Angeles and Hollywood was arranged for Mr. and Mrs. Walter.

Requiem high mass had been sung at 9 a.m., in St. Boniface church, of which Jimmie was a member. Friends of all faiths were there to pay their respects, and capacity of the church was taxed to accommodate them all.

The reason, her first husband, John whom she long believed dead, has reappeared in fourteen years ago, she told the court, she and McCormack were living in Phoenix, Ariz., when he suggested that she visit some relatives in Arkansas. He put her on the train and that was the last she saw of him until a few weeks ago, when she received a telegram from San Francisco from a man giving his name as John Cannon and asserting he was her long lost husband. She went there and identified him. After she had been in Arkansas for a short time she received a telegram from McCormack telling her he would join her.
