Rules Out Bequest To School Children Fruit Peddler Will Tossed Out By Court Winchester, Va., Mar. 13— (UP) 1 —The first, second and third graders who attend John Kerr school ' learned today that there woh’t be any free bubblegum and candy this Easter or next Christmas, or ' ever. ' An aged fruit peddler who loved kids, and,willed a fund to buy them Easter and Christmas goodies, was balked in his desire by the supreme court of Virginia. The court threw out the will yesterday in Which Charles B. Henry, who died iwo years ago at the age of 80, left the income of his 186.000 estate for twice-yearly distribution among the 40(1 John Kerr pupils. It would have given an estimated $4,000 a year for s|rend4ng as th"y liked. 'Two Christmases arid one fcasL er have passed since Hpnty died; but the estate has been tied up in court and no distribution was Under the supreme court’s decision, which is riot expected to be appealed, it will be divided among relatives who\ number close to 50. John Kerr, an old school near the site of Henry’s curbstohe fruit and candy market, takes only the first three grades and few of those now enrolled even remember . the kindly old man. Through his life he made his own gifts to thousands jof children after his only child, a daughter, died while attending the school years ago He said in the will that the children should use the money for their educations “or anything they want.” but the supreme court pointed out that “their minds and interests (would bet far removed from studies" when they got the cash at the ages of six, seven and ' eight"There is no iritent or belief the . funds would be put to any other use than such as a youthful impulse or desire might dictate." the opinion said. But it added that Henry’s intention was “laudable, generous and praiseworthy.” Mrs. Harriet ff.' Taylor, 70, a first cousin, led relatives in contesting the will and won in the lower eburts. The \ bank which dieted as executor made a formal appeal- which the supreme cour| rejected The legal basis for the decision' was that the trust was a "benevolent" one. not permitted under Virginia law, instead Os an . educational and charitable trust. British Don't Like American Television Serious Shows Are Given Preference London. March 13. - (UP) — America and Britain just don’t see rye to rye on television. For'inore than a year thej ( British Broadcasting Company has been trying :to enthuse its TV viewers about the kind of show Americans s*e:n so prefer—the bi 2 vaudeville revue 4uch as the Milton Berle or Sid Cehsar shows. The British have been yawning. For Reasons that would take a psychologist to interpret, the British. whio er.jov vaudeville on radio, prefer us shows on television. The mt?re setibus the better. TV sponsoied here. Owners of sets pay $5.60 a year for a license. There are 650.C00 license holders, and the BBC’ has a department of listener research which keeps close tabs on what they want.
