Chambers, owner and operator of the Gold Nugget Inn, on the gruonds that no crime had been committed by Mr. Kennedy. Mr. Berliner, attorney for Mr. Kennedy's wife in the custody case involving their son, pointed out to the court that Mr. Kennedy had stolen the note, even though it was made payable to Mr. Kennedy, and that it was a negotiable item and that Mr. Kennedy could very well endorse the note over to someone else and collect the Composing Room $3.600 even though apayment of $300 had been made on the note by Chambres.

Every Mississippi sportsman knows that more hunters are going afield each vear. He is also aware that more private land is being closed to public hunting.

Some have the impression that, so long as they pass the medical examination by the doctor selected by the insurance company, their beneficiaries can ultimately collect the amount specified in the policies. The District Court of Appeals last September at Sacramento denied relief to a widow whose husband had a heart condition which he did not disclose. The insurance company was able to prove at the trial that he had consulted a physician whose name he had not mentioned and taken drugs to relieve pain in heart disease. The Court said:: “ By failing to i) reveal the fact of his examination and traetment by doctors not named in the application, the applicant deprived the insurer of facts that might well have affected the extent of tis investigation and its examination of the applicant. Any insurance company is entitled to rely on the truthfulness of the answers given in the application.” It relied on a Supreme Court case decided June 21, 1957, which pointed out: “It has been specifically held that misrepresentations as to heart symptoms render an Insurance policy unenforcable. . Where false representations as to material matters have been made, the existence of a fraudulent intent to deceive is not essential.
