Adams, 67, president of the $22,000,000 Hollywood State t Bank. Mr. Adams, a pistol at his side, c was found sprawled in his new $70,- _ 1000 home August 18. On a stand £ ’beside his bed was a picture of r Merna Lassen, his secretary for 13 i years until she resigned in June. . ‘‘To think that you are in the “ arms of another man is more than ~ I can stand,” read one of two notes ^ to Miss Lassen. Boy Friend Criticized. “We could have been so happy if j you had consented to have me,” t read another, which criticized her new clarinet-player boy friend as h “arrogant” and “conceited.” b The next day, the attorney for I Mr. Adams’ bank disclosed that his o will left his estate to the City of Los Angeles for a juvenile recreation ! center, with his personal fortune to a grandson, Martin Brown, for his | education. But yesterday another attorney, l Rex B. Goodcell, the banker's long ] time friend, filed another will in Mr. Adams’ own handwriting, bequeath ing “all my property, both personal and real” to Miss Lassen, to do with | it “whatsoever she may see fit.” He ! also named her administrator and I concluded' “I hereby disinherit all other per j sons claiming any interest in the | estate, whether blood relation or | not.” Lost Arm in Accident. Miss Lassen had no comment on j | the new document. It was written j in July, only eight days after the j first testament. Mr. Adams, a former railroad! brakeman who lost an arm in an accident had been president of the j bank since 1938. Divorced from his first wife, he was widowed*in 1942 j when his second died in a wartime | blackout auto crash.
