COMMISSION OK'S
12-DAY PHEASANT
HUNTING SEASON
Approves Purchase of Frontage
At Little Long Lake For
Fishermen's Access
The conservation commission at its
September meeting at Norway, Michigan, reaffirmed a 12-day pheasant
hunting season for this fall after con-;
sidering a proposal to reduce it to
five days. It also extended the southern Michigan grouse hunting season
by ten days, October 27-November 5,
making the ruffed grouse (partridge)
season October 15-November 5 in all
of the lower peninsula.
Commission chairman Donald B.
McLouth, supporting the majority in
maintaining the twelve-day pheasant
season, declared the pheasant population, as estimated by the department's game technicians, could sustain two weekends of legal hunting
without harm.
Thirty-five upper peninsula sportsmen's clubs, represented at a meeting of the Northern Michigan Sportsmen's association, advised the commission they favored opening all hunting and fishing seasons on Saturdays,
$50 and $25 fees for non-resident
hunting licenses, larger appropriations
for* the Stream Control Commission,
and attempts to propagate ruffed
grouse at Cusino wildlife experiment
station. Other association resolutions opposed trapping of beaver in
194S, the special trout fishing license,
taking of female deer with'bow and
arrow, and the wearing of license
number back tags, advising coat buttons instead.
The commission accepted the 20S-
acre Gogebic county park containing
falls and rapids of Presque Isle river
as a gift addition to Porcupine
Mountain state park, and approved
purchase of an additional 112 acres.
Another park land purchase of IS
acres at Warren Dunes also was approved.

PIONEERS DEFEAT

20-0 LAST FRIDAY
Green and White and Standish
To Meet Here This
Friday Evening
In spite of mistakes in judgement
and ball handling, the Clare School
Pioneers opened their 1947 football
season with a 20-0 victory over Shepherd last Friday night, scoring, 7
points in the second quarter and 15
in the fourth. At times the Green and
White looked very impressive both on
offeg.se and defense but on several oc-
casions they just looked green. That
old bogey, "pass defense", reared its
ugly head several times and once ia
the third quarter put the Pioneers^
back into the shade of their goal
posts. The Green and White line-
really showed its metal then and toofc
the ball on downs inside their eight-
Clare made four downs in tha first-
quarter but failed to score when Shep-
herd recovered a Pioneer fumble on
the Shepherd 17 yard line.
Early in the second period the

Mrs. Shimmelfwas & member of the

Public Act No. 317 of the Michigan
State- Legislature, 1947 session, provides that husband a'nd wife may
share their income as a device to re-
or both while domiciled in this State.
The Act does not apply to property,
real or personal, regardless of where
situated, if acquired by husband or
duce Federal Income Tax. The law j wife while not domiciled in Michigan
became effective July 1, 1947. Income sharing is mandatory under the
law unless both husband and wife declare in writing, each to the other,
that they do not wish to do so.
Although much legal clarification
will undoubtedly be necessary, competent attorneys declare that property rights will not be changed to any
important degree except for Income
tax purposes. Under the law the husband remains the legal manager of
the joint income and liable for debts,
obligations, etc. ■>

last half of the 1947 tax year (July J property. In general all of the earn-
1 to January 1).
Division of income between husband and wife will be rather simple
for persons whose income is exclusively derived from personal services
rendered, but in the "case of a business operation there are many complications including considerable accounting to determine what portion
of net earnings may be charged to
personal services and be made community property, and what portion
must be charged to earnings on capital investment which cannot be designated as community property.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q. When, does the Act become effective?
A. Section 19 of the Act reads:
"The effective date of this act is
July 1, 1947."
Q. What persons are effected by
the Act?
• A. All married residents of Michigan.
Q. Can the husband and wife continue on as before the Act if they
choose to do so?
A. A husband and wife by agreement can elect to continue as though
.the Act were never passed. .
., Q.. To what property does the
Act apply?
A. The Act applies to real property
situated in Michigan find to personal
property wherever situated, so long
as it is acquired by husband or wife
ings (wages, salaries, fees, commissions, etc.) of either spouse received
after marriage or after the effective
date of the Act, whichever is the
later, and that which is purchased
with such earnings and its income,
rents and profits is community property. All property owned jointly
prior to the effective date of the Act
is unchanged by the Act.
Q. What effect does this have on-
property located outside the State of
Michigan?
A. If the husband and wife are
residents of this State, it applies to
all personal property wherever it is
found, but it does not apply to real
property outside the State owned by
residents of Michigan.
Q. Can husband and wife acquire
joint property after the Act becomes
effective?
A. Yes, they may acquire and hold
property after the effective date of
the Act in any manner that they
could prior to the Act, but the manner of holding (joint tenancy, etc)
must be clearly shown in the instrument by which they acquire it.

be.applicable in all cases. We therefore suggest that you. consult your
own attorney or tax authority to find

tions, '

At times the Green and White looked very impressive both on offeg.se and defense but on several oc- casions they just looked green. That old bogey, "pass defense", reared its ugly head several times and once ia the third quarter put the Pioneers^ back into the shade of their goal posts. The Green and White line- really showed its metal then and toofc the ball on downs inside their eight- Clare made four downs in tha first- quarter but failed to score when Shep- herd recovered a Pioneer fumble on the Shepherd 17 yard line.

The law j wife while not domiciled in Michigan became effective July 1, 1947. Income sharing is mandatory under the law unless both husband and wife declare in writing, each to the other, that they do not wish to do so. Although much legal clarification will undoubtedly be necessary, competent attorneys declare that property rights will not be changed to any important degree except for Income tax purposes. Under the law the husband remains the legal manager of the joint income and liable for debts, obligations, etc. ■> Michigan income tax payers may apply the provisions of the law to the Q.

In general all of the earn- 1 to January 1). Division of income between husband and wife will be rather simple for persons whose income is exclusively derived from personal services rendered, but in the "case of a business operation there are many complications including considerable accounting to determine what portion of net earnings may be charged to personal services and be made community property, and what portion must be charged to earnings on capital investment which cannot be designated as community property. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q. When, does the Act become effective? A. Section 19 of the Act reads: "The effective date of this act is July 1, 1947." Q. What persons are effected by the Act? • A. All married residents of Michigan. Q. Can the husband and wife continue on as before the Act if they choose to do so? A. A husband and wife by agreement can elect to continue as though .the Act were never passed. . ., Q.. To what property does the Act apply? A. The Act applies to real property situated in Michigan find to personal property wherever situated, so long as it is acquired by husband or wife ings (wages, salaries, fees, commissions, etc.) of either spouse received after marriage or after the effective date of the Act, whichever is the later, and that which is purchased with such earnings and its income, rents and profits is community property. All property owned jointly prior to the effective date of the Act is unchanged by the Act. Q. What effect does this have on- property located outside the State of Michigan? A. If the husband and wife are residents of this State, it applies to all personal property wherever it is found, but it does not apply to real property outside the State owned by residents of Michigan. Q. Can husband and wife acquire joint property after the Act becomes effective? A. Yes, they may acquire and hold property after the effective date of the Act in any manner that they could prior to the Act, but the manner of holding (joint tenancy, etc) must be clearly shown in the instrument by which they acquire it. Please keep in mind that no blanket rules Can be laid down that will be.applicable in all cases.
