DR.. R. B. SMITH
GETS SON FIVE
DAYS OF WEEK
Court Lets Mother, Whom Doc.
tor Is Suing, Have Boy Satur-
days and Sundays.
PLAN HOLDS UNTIL
DIVORCE SUIT ENDS
Fact That Little Hugh's Studies
Were interrupted Influenced
vice-ChanceIIor.

The legal battle between Mrs Katha
rine Mullin Smith, of s25 Clifton avenue.
and her husband. Dr. Raymond B.
Smith, of 90 Park street. Montclair, for
the possession Of their I1-year- boy,
Hugh Mullin Smith, was decided, for
a time. today by vice-C Chancellor
Stevens, who restores the lad to his
father for five days each week. but al
lows him to spend Saturday and Sun
days with his mother
The decision holds until the divorce
suit instituted by DIR. Smith is decided.
The case is TO be tried during May.
The boy was not inclined to be hi
larious when the court made known
Its decision. but the frown on his face
gave way to a smile when his mother
pressed his hand and smiled at him
as they left the room. He may remain
with his mother until Monday after
noon. when. the transfer will be made
to the father.
In arriving at his decision the vice
chancellor said he was Influenced by
the fact that the boy was a pupil at
a Montclair school anu that he was
taken, by force from his father to
spend the Christmas holidays with his
mother. The boys studies had been
interrupted in the middle of a school
term, the court said, and the father
was given charge of him. in order that
the little fellow might resume his
studies at the Montclair school.
Former Sheriff Sonmer, who is asso-
ciated with. Edward S. Black as counsel
for Mrs. Smith. asked the court to
designate a time and place for trans
ferring the boy each week between his
mother and father, but this the court
declined to do,
'Of course, / will expect the order to
be oheyed." the yice-chancellor stated
'1f it is not, then the party disobey-
ing it will be in contempt. I will leave
the details of making the transfer to
the discretion and convenience of the
parties"
