hits the news being named the "other woman" by Eula Pierose, 36, in a cross-complaint filed to a divorce action started by her husband, George Pierose, 35, head of a building maintenance company, in Los Angeles Superior Court. The 37-year-old Joanne and George Pierose maintain that they were merely neighbors in Brentwood and that Joanne is friendly with his children. Eula Pierose charges that they were lovers and carried on meretricious relations. Eula states that Joanne has "on many times been in the plaintiff`s home when the defendant was not present." The court sees no indication of any irregularity in the relationship of Pierose and Joanne, and rules that the children shall remain in Pierose`s custody pending trial of the divorce suit. The Pieroses were married in May 1943 and separated in September 1960.
