    ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) - Dolores Granger and Westley Baker have
decided to marry for a second time - more than 40 years after their
first, secret, one-day marriage as teen-agers.
    The pair grew up in Hornell, N.Y. When she was 15 and he 17, they
lied about their ages and were secretly married by a justice of the
peace.
    When her mother discovered the secret the next day, her father had
the marriage declared null and void.
    Both eventually married others. Baker's wife died in 1962, and Ms.
Granger, who uses her maiden name, lost her husband about 12 years
ago.
    Last December, Ms. Granger received a Christmas card from an old
friend in Hornell who had seen Baker. He had, according to the friend,
expressed an interest in seeing Ms. Granger again.
    After a recent visit, they decided to marry around Sept. 1.
    ''Just seeing him again was a thrill,'' said Ms. Granger. ''I guess
you never forget your first love. It is as if the years had just
floated by. We're as much in love as we ever were. It's like a fairy
tale.''
    Ms. Granger, 58, is a waitress in Rochester. Baker, 60, of Big
Flats, will soon retire from his job with Corning Glass.

    BURBANK, Calif. (AP) - Herve Villechaize, the 3-foot 10-inch co-star
of television's ''Fantasy Island'' series, was examined and released
at St. Joseph's Medical Center because of abdominal pains.
    Villechaize, 36, was released Wednesday after examination indicated
his pain ''didn't require hospitalization,'' said nursing supervisor
Betty Horvath.
    A native of Paris, the 70-pound Villechaize lives in a Los Angeles
suburb where he raises dogs, rabbits and horses. 
    Last week he announced his engagement to actress Camille Hagan. The
couple met last fall when the actress appeared on the TV series.

    BERLIN (AP) - The West Berlin city government Wednesday awarded
Robert M. W. Kempner, a former deputy U.S. chief of counsel for war
crimes, an honorary professor title ''for his scientific merits.''
    The 80-year-old  Lansdowne, Pa., lawyer has authored several books
about the Nazi regime. He studied and worked in Berlin before fleeing
from Adolf Hitler's rule in 1933.
    He returned to Germany in 1946 to join the prosecution in the
Nuremberg war crime trials.
    A statement from the Berlin Senate said Kempner will be presented
his new title during a reception in his honor.

    ATLANTA (AP) - Americans ''glorify the power of violence and believe
that might makes right,'' former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark
said Wednesday.
    Speaking before the 5th annual Institute on Nonviolence here, Clark
condemned the failed U.S. attempt to rescue American hostages through
military force, asking, ''What form of madness makes Americans
support that kind of military action?''
    Clark, whose unauthorized visit to Iran this summer prompted some
American leaders to call for his prosecution, was praised at the
meeting by Coretta Scott King, widow of slain civil rights leader Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr. She called Clark ''a man of rare courage and
conscience.''
