HOOKS IGNORED

1t must be the heat or the
humidity or both, but anglers
are not getting anywhere on the
fishing front.
The fish are there, hardheads,
trout, rockfish and the fighting
blues, but they are whimsical as
all get out, as far as biting Is
concerned.
Old salts offer various reasons,
the most logical of which is that
alewiveS are swarming so thickly
in the bay and lower river that
the finsters are all well-fed and
decidedly indifferent to skinny
bats and lures offered by Izaak
Waltons.
The proof of this is the report
that commercial fishermen are
dragging in nets loaded down with
plump hardheads, trout. white
perch and blues. One fishing party
saw a commercial fishing boat
overlooking with the fish from
just one net.

RIGHT TO APPEAL
DIVORCE DENIED
Wife's Acceptance of Alimony
Estopped Further Action,
Court Rules.

The United States Court of Appeals
held yesterday that wife could not ap-
peal from a divorce decree awarded to
her husband under which she had re-
ceived alimony p. yments.
This ruling was made by the court
in dismissing the appeal Of Mrs. Fran
ces C. Harris, whose husband, David E.
Harris of the Chastleton Hotel, had
obtained a divorce on grounds of inf
deity. Although the husband was
victorious, the trial court ordered him
to pay his wife $50 monthly for a
reasonable period.
Through Attorney Jean NJ Board
man, Harris told appellate court
that ever since the decree was award
ed Mrs. Harris regularly had accepted
payment of the alimony. He charged
that by accepting the benefits result
ing from the decree she was estopped
from challenging its validity.
In an opinion written by Chief JUS
tice George E Martin. the Court Of
Appeals agreed wit this view
Answering an objection that refusal
to accept alimony might leave wife
destitute, the court said the wife was
free to apply for temporary mainte-
nance during the period in which her
appeal was being prosecuted.
The court granted Boardman's mo-
tion to dismiss, refusing to review the
record of the case.
