JOAN CRAWFORD GETS DIVORCE LOS ANGELES, Calif., April 11. Joan Crawford, big-eyed and dressed in an orchid-colored outfit, came to court unexpectedly today and obtained a divorce from actor Franchot Tone. The screen star took her public by surprise. She was slated to appear April 18, after her failure to obtain her freedom by deposition. Miss Crawford won her decree today in a very brief hearing before Superior Judge Benjamin Scheinman.
