SWAPPED WIVES I ALIMONY ROW Now Each Sues Other's Husband for Payments That Are Long Overdue CHICAGO, Sept. 28 (JP). Judge Joseph La Buy is puzzled. And so is Judge Joseph Sabath. The cause is George Schware and his wife, Gladys, and William L.

Schnell and his wife, Florence. Until 1931, Gladys was William's wife and Florence was George's. Then they got divorces. After that each wed the other's mate. George was to pay Florence $25 a week alimony and William was to give Gladys $20 a week for support of their three children.

Allegedly nobody paid, but things went along nicely until two weeks ago when Florence decided to have George named for contempt because of $1,500 unpaid alimony. Second Takes Action Thereafter Gladys decided that she would start a contempt action against William, alleging he owed her $1,700. While the Schnell case was on Judge Sabath's call yesterday, the Schwarz matter came up before Judge La Buy. He wiped the perspiration from his brow and said: "It will take a Solomon to decide this and I don't know of any among the circuit and superior Judges." "Why," asked Norman Becker, attorney for Schwarz, "don't we Just cancel the two claims, leaving Mr. Schnell owing the $200 difference?" Judge La Buy said this appealed to him and Judge Sabath said he was willing to sit en banc with Judge La Buy, October 11, If it won't be against court rules.

HOOT GIBSON IN POVERTY LOS ANGELES, Sept. 28 (JP) Hoot Gibson has no money or assets with which to satisfy a $2,500 judgment, he told Court Commissioner Kurtz Kauffman yesterday. FREE NEW YORK, Sept. 28 (NEA) When George Nelson Page, 27 year old descendant of one of the oldest families in American history, becomes a citizen of Italy next month, it does not mean that he Is breaking with the traditions that go back to Jamestown. Rather, he is becoming an unofficial American ambassador to Italy.

And the ambassadorship role isn't a new one in his family. Thomas Nelson Page, well known author and diplomat, who served as United States ambassador to Italy for six years during the Wilson administration, was a cousin of Page's father. Roots of the family go deep into colonial soil. But the last three generations have lived in Italy, retaining American citizenship. Nelson Page, the first to sever political affiliations, feels that the time has come to practical about the mat ter.

Got To See Mussolini "I have learned that It is impossible to be part of the country where one lives without having social identity with the group," he says. "I'm interested in social and economic work. My immediate roots are in Italy. I believe I will be more useful there both to America and Italy as an Italian citizen. "But obtaining Italian citizenship isn't an easy matter.

I could have received it when I was 21 but I declined. The usual procedure requires 3ve years of naturalization. I wrote to Mussolini last April explaining my case and asking for an audience. A few days later, May 1, he graciously granted me one and when I return to Italy about the middle of October I'll receive my citizenship papers." Such action, which is an outgrowth of the far flung, vision, of world brotherhood that encourages a man to belong to the group which he serves, is decidedly new. Page my skin became and you don't know what a happy day that was in my life." Then why not pause a moment and reason in a common sense way the cause of many ekin troubles.

Such common ailments often result because of a lowered resistance below the skin surface fre qusntly due to lowered blood vitality. Increase the red blood cells and their hemoglobin content and more of the life giving oxygen is carried to every part of the body even to the ekin. "Step up" the ability of the resisting cells to devour infectious pimple germs. Then you will have laid the foundation for a sounder physical condition. S.S.S., in addition to being a valuable general tonic, has the special property ot increasing the red cells and restoring the hemoglobin content of the blood, when deficient.

It is time tested tens of thousands of unsolicited letters of gratitude over several generations evidence its merit. Don't let anyone "switch" you in your determination to restore your red.blood cells and their hemoglobin content. Two convenient slses at all drug stores the larger nize is more economical.
