When two teams get to feeling like
that, with the students of each

Coach Mueller seems to have a
problem in selecting the right COM

Happy French Couples
May Get Divorces to
Escape NeW Tax LdWs

DARIS, April 24.-Divorce between
i happily married couples as a
safeguard against the law Is the lat
est domestic problem In France. This
amazing possibility Is envisaged as
the result OF an act passed by the
chamber OF deputies rendering the
wife responsible for omissions or er.
rory committed by her husband In
financial affairs
The motive OF the law was TO find
some means to force payment OF
taxes, especially income taxes. and to
forestaIl the distribution Of funds
within family TO put them beyond
the reach OF the state. A husband
will no longer be able TO turn his
assets and property over to his wife
to escape debts and claims.
This threatens to swamp the d.
yorce courts" writes Maurice Prax
in the Petit Parisien. Madame x,
