New York (AP) - Band leader Xavier Cugat yesterday filed a $1 million suit against a dance team that was part of his act, claiming they persuaded his ex-wife, Abbe Lane, to break her show contract with him. The suit asked $200,000 plus $800,000 in punitive damages from John Frank Brascia and Tybee Bimia Brascia, husband wife dance team that were part of the Cugat-Lane show.
