MYSTERY SURROUNDS
IDENTITY OF DEAD MAN
Autopsy Surgeon Believes Man
Committed Suicide

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2S-
Mystery stin surrounds the identity of
the man whose remains. hacked and
mutilated almost beyond recognition,
were found in a deserted spot west of
COlma by Alfred Jones and Joseph Par
enu on Tuesday afternoon
DR.. W Lester Wilson. as autopsy
surgeon, examined the remains at the
establishment OF J. G. Mccarthy, dep
uty coroner, in San MateO today DR..
Wilson is OF the opinion that the man
committed suicide He closely searched
the supposed bullet wound at the base
OF the brain and found no evidence of
a bullet, reaching the conclusion that q
fall and decomposition would account
for the wounds in question. The sever
ing OF the radial artery OF the left
wrist was sufficient in itself to cause
death without the throat wound A
peculiar feature Of the case which does
not help the suicide theory is the fact
that both OF the mans hands were par
tally in the trousers pockets at the
time the corpse was discovered. The
inquest has been set by the coroner for
Friday night.

Probation for Lads Favored

BERKELEY, Jan. 2S.-"I don't be-
lieve the members of the high school
committee of the board of education
viii as yet move toward placing on
probation the boys who have been
found guilty Of OngdOing" said Roy
J. Young, who is member Of the
committee.
Young declared that the investiga-
uOns OF the board We're still going on
and would continue for several weeks
He said that conditions at the school
were such that the attention Of the
board would be concentrated on un-
covering Wrongdoing rather than re-
lieving the punishment of those who
had been pronounced guilty by the
board.
Later on we may do something like
that" continued Young. but for the
time being at least the board has other
things 10 DO. We have not even con-
sioereo probation yet"
There is a movement on foot to have
the boys placed on probation. as the
general feeling here is that they have
been sufficiently punished. This senti-
ment was awakened by the publicity
which has been given to the pathetic
appeal made by Mrs. Duncan E. Nc
kinlay TO the board Of education in
behalf of her son. Gerald. His father,
the congressman, is at the national
capital and the mother was left to
bear the brunt Of the exposure.

GRATING IN CITIES
EXAMPLE FOR BOYS
Ola POdrida Editor Blames Out
side Conditions for Berkeley
School Scandal

BERKELEY, Jan. 2S.-That grating,
knavery and cynicism, reported to ex-
fst in the various large cities, is re-
sponsible as an example set youths for
the petty thievery in the Berkeley
high school. is the statement made to-
day by Ray Randall. editor Of the
ola Podrida. the high school organ of
the students Of the school, the January
number of which appeared today.
Randall rose to the defense Of the
students Of the school with the declar-
alton that the desire Of the world at
large for Iuxuries and expensive
srnusements was at the bottom of the
trouble which was exposed at the
school by the board Of education de
said that the creation OF a public SEN
timent against wrongdoing would
work wonders for the uplift of the
boys of the school
RandalTs editorial says in part:
The Ola Podrida as the official organ OF the
b. II. S. student body. thinks II proper TO say 4
word as 10 the recent deplOrable notoriety which
q purely local matter has received " Nhlle we
honestly feel thar conditions in this school are
all that could be desired among the majority OF
students exactly as good as in other schools OF
equal size, yet. without doubt. a moral break
down has occurred IN certain quarters ana iire
action OF a few DAYS ago was the logical result.
The standard Of common honesty seems TO have
been lowered, while the school has looked on
with indifference. The causes for this are two
fold. First, We see the desire for Injuries and
expensive amusement but By far the greater OF
the two IS the example set us by the outside
world, with Its graft, knavery and cynicism.
These all leave their impression, and when our
fdess and ideals are necessarily drawn from such
a source as this the blame seems scarcely ours.

A New sun-pefylng Cloth.

From Van Norden Magazine.
 A new cloth is being made in Calcutta, India, which is manufactured on scientific principles to conform to natures plan of warding off the sun's rays, as exemplified in the color of the skin and the pigments under the skin.
 It is the belief of physicians that one of the chief reasons for the many deaths recorded in hot weather is that of i'm. proper clothing.
 The designer of what we must wear to be of the elect may ordain a color or text ure thoroughly unsuited to the prevailing climatic conditions, and safety and com fort are often jeopardized in conss- uuence.
