Life without "Sonny" looks drab to girl!

"It's going to be tough," said Mrs. Eleanor Deveny, 25-year-old mother of two, who last week ran away with Ellsworth "Sonny" Wisecarver, 16. At her home, she signed and said, "It's going to be tough on me the rest of my life if I can't have that kid!" The brown-haired, gray-eyed Mrs. Deveny described Sonny as "a continuous lover who was a lover all of the time." She described her husband, Army Corporal John Deveny, as the silent type. "He'll be back from Japan in February or March. But I don't think there'll be any trouble between him and Sonny."
