Rams Trade Thomason
For Packer Draft Choice!
By the Associated Press

REDLANDS. Calf. July 49,
The Los Angeles Rams announced
at their training camp here yes
terday that they have traded
Bobby Thomason, their 22-year-
old quarterback, to the Green
Bay Packers for the Packers first
two draft choices next season.
1--WE didn't want to let Thoma-
son co." Coach Joe Stydahar said.
'but with Norman Van Brocklin
and Bob Waterfield to call our
signals, Thomason most likely
would have seen limited service,
and we most certainly can use
those draft choices next season
and get some players we really
want"
Thomason was idle, on the
bench, with the Rams IL the 1949
season and was farmed last sea-
son to the Richmond Rebels of
the now defunct American Foot
ball League. The Packers need a
quarterback since Stan Heath has
gone to the Cleveland Browns and
Tobin Rote apparently is retiring.

Judge Vetos Plans
 Divorced Couples To Get Married

PORT ANGELES, Wash, (P)- There will be no wedding bells for two logging truck drivers who announced after their wives di- vorced them last week that they planned to marry each others "eX'S."
 Superior Judge Max Church said "No" yesterday to the plans of Virgil T. Rondeau, 26, to marry Elizabeth, the ex-wife of his friend, William A. Fraker, 31. Fraker had planned to marry FL nora, Rondeau's former spouse.
 One of the husbands called Judge Church later to appeal to him to change his ruling, but the judge refused to see him.
 William Conniff, attorney for the wives, added a new note to the case. He said the women ad- vised him that the decision to re- marry was not made until after the divorces had been granted; that it was not planned ahead of time as a spouse-swapping ar rangement.
 The judge issued a memoran- dunn opinion setting aside divorces granted last week. The opinion termed the couples plans fraud practices on the court" and said "the entire transaction herein out lined is an egregrious insult to public decency."
 The Two Forks, Wash, truck CTS learned of the judges action when they appeared at the County Auditors office to pick up mar riage license, applied for a few minutes after the divorces were granted last Friday.
 The divorces, neither of which was contested, were granted on complaints of the women that their husbands were "cold and indifferent"
 In granting the divorce, Judge Church awarded $50 month ali- mony to each woman. Bot h couples have three minor chil- dren.

Korean Truce To Have No Effect On Defense Program

WASHINGTON, (P - Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson told the tax-writing Senate Finance Committee yesterday a Korean truce twill have no effect" on the nations preparedness program.
 That program, he declared, must be based, not upon the Korean fighting, but upon what we know to be the ultimate aims and present tactics of the Soviet Union."
 Until we know that there is a genuine change in the long-term aims of world Communism, we cannot afford to slow the pace of our own defense build-up and our aid to other countries"
 Wilson urged the committee to approve the $10 billion tax boost which President Truman h a S asked.
 AS to the rearmament program, Wilson said Frankly I am not satisfied with our progress in achieving defense production" He added he was taking numerous steps to speed up output.
 Wilson said orders for military goods and facilities have totalled SAP billion since the Korean war began.
 Although Wilson said a Korean cease-fire should make no differ ence in the preparedness pro- gram, Senator George D-G9 said it unquestionably would af feet the Senate's attitude toward a steep tax increase.
