The teen-age mistress of the late Errol Flynn yesterday was made a ward of juvenile court under guardianship of Mrs. Francis Eilers and her husband, Leonard. All Smiles After Hearing. Blond Beverly will trade her life as a Hollywood nightclub singer for the quiet, homey, atmosphere of the Eilers' 10-acre ranch in the San Fernando Valley. Beverly and her bleached-blond mother, Mrs. Florence Aadland, 53, were all smiles when they left the closed hearing. "This is a victory for Beverly," said Mrs. Aadland. "By next September she'll be back in show business."
