The Tax Court held that although a multiple support agreement was executed pursuant to Section 152(c), Internal Revenue Code 1954, the petitioner is not entitled to a dependency exemption for her sister where the sister contributed $409.71 to a common family fund used for the support of all members of the household which was greater than one-half of the total expenditure of $678.80 from the common fund for the sister's support.
46 T.C. 446.

Affirmed.
