This proceeding involves deficiencies in Federal income tax of the petitioners for the years 1952 and 1953 in the respective amounts of $462.98 and $3,468.26. The sole issue is whether alimony payments made by Fred Spicknall to his former wife were periodic payments within the meaning of section 22(k) and hence deductible under section 23(u), Internal Revenue Code of 1939.
