tags' MOTION ClOCK A $4,000 fund drive to meet expenses incurred in purchase of the tract known as the Cave Hill Nature Center and for fu ture expansion of the facilities, was started today by the Carlisle Kiwanis Club, it was an nounced by Jimmie George and Walter M. Eckman, co-chairmen. The campaign is aimed at obtaining $2,500 necessary for meeting the obligations of the land purchase by the club, and an additional $1,500 for added facilities at the nature center. The Kiwanis Club purchased the tract, located just north of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, near Cave Hill, and donated the land to the borough this Summer as a public service for nature lov ers. The fund to buy the land from the Turnpike Commmssion were obtained from local bank.

Kiwanians signed a note for the loan. The 52,500 will be used to pay off this debt, George siad today. However, he hoped that additional mon ies will be raised in order to provide for bird feeders, building of trails and for signs at the nature center. Any member of the Kiwanis Club will accept public dona tions, the co-chairman said, but for those wishing to mail con tributions, checks and cash should be sent directly to the Cave Hill Nature Center Fund, in care of the Borough Office, Carlisle. A special account has been set up at the Borough Office for these funds.

George issued a special plea to groups, organizations and businesses which have not closed out their fiscal spending for the year to consider eontributias to the nature center. Several local citizens have already made donations ranging from $1 and up towards the fund drive, George said. He added that for the present, no active subscription drive is planned other than through public pleas for dona tions. Memorial Coin Bill Advanced Senate O.K.

In upholding Judge Jacobs, Justice Ervin, in his opinion wrote "We agree with the master and the Court below that the evidence with regard to indig nities did not reveal a course of conduct sufficient to estab lish a eause of divorce." Complaint Dismissed In the opinion, Justice Ervin pointed out Mrs. Zimmerman withdrew from the household on Apr. 13, 1959. and on Oct.

1959, she filed an' action in divorce on grounds of adultery and In dignities. On Apr. 12, 1962, the Pennsylvania Superior Court af firmed an order of Judge Jac obs dismissing Mrs. Zimmer man's complaint. Zimmerman filed a complaint in divorce against his wife on Apr.

19, 1962, in which he charg ed desertion and indignities, his counsel arguing that Mrs. Zim merman deliberately and false ly; accused him of adultery in her complaint. Mrs. Zimmerman, at a later date, admitted he could not have been committing adultery on the occasions set forth in her pleadings to which Justice Ervin wrote "The Court said we are not prepared to say the adultery charge leveled in the complaint was in bad faith," and added "Mr. Zimmerman and his secretary had committed cer tain acts that certainly were improper; however, Mrs.

Zimmerman failed to prove a conduct sufficient to give her a divorce on the grounds of indignities." In conclusion, Justice Ervin wrote: "We are of the opinion that the indignities charge in Mrs. Zimmerman's complaint was in good faith. We agree with the master and the Court below that the evidence with regard to indignities did not reveal a course of conduct sufficient to establish a cause of divorce and af firm the decree of the Court below."
