gross stupidity. Frank Cooper was

has been rapidly growing worse and
on Monday, when the other prisoners
were taken into court to enter pleas
he was left behind. His mania asserts
itself in an increasing degree of stu

he either pays no heed or answers in

he realizes what has been said to him.
He spends most of his time in the pad
