Howard Da Silva,
Broadway Star
New York — Howard Da Silva,
an actor best known for his role as

age 76.
Born Howard Silverblatt in
Cleveland, Ohio, Mr, Da Silva had
a show business career that
spanned more than 55 years. In
addition to acting, he was a direc-
tor, producer and author.

Na'amat Backs
Nupital Pact
NeW York — Na'amat, Israel's
largest women's organization, has
launched a campaign to have
married and engaged couples add
a financial agreement to their
, marriage contracts aimed at re-
ducing dissension and hardship in
the event of divorce or widowhood.
The drive was announced dur-
ing Na'amat's annual "Status of
Women" month in January. A
random sampling of the 3,000 di-
vorce cases in which Na'amat's
legal aid bureaus were invoved
from 1982 to 1984 showed that 80
percent of the settlements gave
rise to "grave disagreements"
over property and child support.
The organization has drafted a
standardized contract for Jewish
couples that covers division of
property and financial assets,
child support, alimony and other
matters that arise when a mar-
riage is dissolved. The agreement,
drawn up in consideration of
Jewish law (Halacha), is designed
to be approved by the district
court and, if possible, by the reli-
gious authority marrying the
couple, so that it becomes part of
the marriage contract.
