GOOSE SPARED "'YULE DINNER' HANOI (CP) -- Canadian soldiers during the weekend extended the Christmas truce in Vietnam to cover a goose named Alice. Alice, a hefty 16-pound red- dish-brown bird, was flown in from Vientiane, Thailand, as the Christmas dinner of the British consul - general, J. H. R. Colvin. But she spent the night un- adorned with roast potatoes and green peas thanks to a last-minute reprieve by sol- diers from the Canadian mili- tary delegation to the Interna- tional C ont rol Commission here. They met her at Hanoi's air- port, where she had arrived in a specially-ventilated red diplomatic pouch, and took her in, intending to deliver her to the British delegation. But Alice conquered them, and when the fateful hour of execution came around no- body was prepared to kill the goose.

NIGHT SCHOOL OSHAWA BOARD OF EDUCATION Latin Husbands Losing Status ROME (AP) -- Italy's gov- ernment is putting te final touches on a tradition-shatter- ing law to knock the props out from under the Latin hus- band as lord and master of his home. The lew, changing Italy's ancient code on family rights, would: --Jail the adulterous hus- band as well as the way- ward wife; Abolish the dowry custom as undignified; --<Allow the wife to keep her maiden name instead of using her husband's; --Give the wife a say, for the nrst ume, in where the family will live; --Give her equal rights to wealth or property the fam- ily acquires during mar- riage and let her keep as her own whatever she had before marrying. This is the greatest change in the status of women since Italy's constitution guaranteed them equal rights 20 years ago. Even with the constitu- tional guarantee, women still lacked much of the equality spelled out in the new law. Premier Aldo Moro's cab- inet has | agreed to submit the jaw wo Fariiament with «gov ernment backing. One question to be worked out is the exact phrasing of the change in the civil code that would allow an adulter- ous husband to be sent to prison. Previously only wives could be jailed for adultery. The new law calls the dowry a custom which lowers the dignity of the bride. Un- der the kaw, property or gifts which the wife brings to mar- riage would remain her per- sonal possession and not be- come the husband's as in the Past. Although the law says the goods and piupeity Which the family acquires during mar- riage become common prop- erty, it specifies that the hus- band or wife retains as his or her own any wealth or goods possessed before marriage. The wife's goods now come under her husband's control. Previously a husband could obtain legal separation if his wife, refused to follow him wherever he chose to live. She would be permitted to refuse if she had any legitimate' ob- jection to moving there. r} Duties, served Daily 11:90 a.m, -- 2:00 p.m. -- 5:00 p.m. - an oa e Reserve r Christmas" Dinner NOW for... @ New »@ New Year's Eve.
