COMMUNIST FACES LOSING HIS WIVES & MEMBERSHIP IN THE PARTY
Moscow, U.S.S.R. (JFK+50) On March 4, 1926, Associated Press reports that Ivan Shurigan "was hailed to court yesterday on a charge of bigamy." Four of his five wives..."decided he should be prosecuted."
As he was preparing to take a sixth wife, wifey #3 "hit him on the head with an ax."
Shurigan faces not only the loss of ALL of his wives, but also his membership in the Communist Party and faces a "likely" prison term.
