HIS SON LONGER
Divorced Wife Must Let Father
Have Boy Entire Day
Each Sunday
Egnance Anton Dworak, presi
dent of the Dworak School of Ac
counting and the Dworak Audit
company, was happier yesterday
than he had been for a long time.
He is to see his 4-year-old son,
Arthur, all day every Sunday in
stead of only from 9:30 in the morn
ing to 1 in the afternoon. Judge
Goss, in district court, signed the
order to this effect yesterday after a
long argument.
Dworak's wife, Marie, Dworak,
was granted a divorce from him last
year on gro'inds of cruelty, which
consisted, she said, of annoying her
about their child. Under the decree
she was given custody of the child,
but Mr. Dworak was allowed to
have the boy every Sunday irom
9:30 in the morning to 1 in the afternoon.
Recently Mr. Dworak, finding
these hours with his son too short
to satisfy him, appealed for more
time. - Charles Hermanek, 1314 Wil
liam street, is to go to the home of
the child's mother each Sunday'
morning and bring little Arthur to
his father. At 8:30 each Sunday
evening Mr. Hermanek is to take
the child back.
