CUILFOILE FILES
 $l5O,OOO ACTION
Local Attorney Represents
 Ira L. Hill, New York I Photographer

Attorney Joseph c. Guilfoile o1 thi; city yesterday filed a $l50,OOC ciyil action in Fairfield county su- nerior court on behalf of Ira l.. Hill famed New York photographer naming Hills former wife, Doris Goodwin Hill of Sherman, defendant involving title to 365-acre tract oi land at Lake Candlewood.
 The land, one of the how-places pf Sherman was acquired by Hill from William H. Big Bill' Edwards former All-American football player in 1928. The purchase price, $55 900 was completely paid July II, 1854 and $25,O00 has been spent for im- proyements, the photographer claims
 As part of a business agreement the photographer claims, he turned the deed to the property over to his wife, whom he married May 10, l92S The purchase was made as an in- yestment for his old age, he says.
 Hill claims that on June A. 1887, he deeded the property to his wife with the understanding that she would execute will bequeathing the real estate to him, his son, Rob- ert L. Hill, and niece. The pho- tographer, who is in business with his son, claims that the property was deeded to his wife to avoid any dan greo fattachment in possible business difficulties. His wife di- yorced him in 1889, the complaint states, and refuses to surrender title to the estate.
