GEORGETOWN MURDER VICTIM
 LAY DEAD FIVE DAYS IN HER
 LITTLE NEW YORK APARTMENT

From siege1 he learned that three men came into his store, in Second avenue, between 39th and 40th streets, on Wednesday, Nov. 6, and asked for l the largest trunk he had. He show ed them an old, peculiarly marked. trunk, with sort of checkerboard de- sign running diagonally across it. Ii was almost a. curio so big that he had no market for it, and he quickly made a deal The price was $7. He deliv- cred it to the tenement around the corner in his own express wagon.
 With this information virelli went to the New York police. Commlss1oneT Dougherty at once took personal charge.
 Then Mrs. Preston was brought into the investiga ton.
 She said she found the trunk in her hallway last Wednesday, and asked the young man-who had hired the flat why he didn't take it in from the hall.
 Make your doors larger and I will, 5 he said, by way of explaining it was too big to get into the flat. And next morning. she says. the trunk was talk en from the hallway by Siegel: Over night the body had been packed for shipment Siegel drove the trunk to the express station.
 Mrs Preston says the men; told her they were going for trip to the coun- try, that they left early Friday. She says they returned Saturday night, with the girl, spent the night there, and when she returned, from church Sunday morning she found the keys hanging in the door and her tenants
 
 m06t of their belongings to woman of her acquaintance in the immediate neighborhood
 Dougherty sent virelli and Mrs. There the Identification was made complete. She recognized the features of the dead woman, but more than all found strip of white hair that fring- ed the forehead The woman's hair was turning gray, but instead of be. ing streaked with 8 gray fringe or white appeared to have begun to spread upwards from the forehead.
 Mrs. Preston's story Of the. happen ings after the murder was startling, but not of much value towards locat- ing the fugitives. Her details doye tailed nicely into the theory of the detectives had built up, and her inden- tification supplied the only important link they need to forge the chain of evidence against the fugitives.
 The lhead of Mrs. Geracci Is still in Georgetown in possession of Funeral Director Floyd B. Bouton. It is kept subject to the order of Coroner Phelan police when they ask for it. There is but one matter of grave importance besides the capture of the murderers that still concerns the police, and that is the weight M of the tr9pk eatn. It t,s.ss was is correct that the stone was wired to the corpse before it was shipped from New York, the weight Is satisfactorily explained.
 But if the stone was taken from a fence in Georgetown or Branchville and wired to the corpse, there is margin enough to warrant suspicion that another body could have been contained in the trunk

 Yesterday. the father, who conducts a grocery store received a postal card saying that the boy had been InJr- dered and his body hidden in the vault The father sent for the police. At first they were inclined to believe the card hoax but finally decided to search the vault. The body was found exactly as the card had said it would.
 The. card was postmarked Chicago and the writing was in a cramped hand with every indication that an attempt had been made to disguise it. The police have communicated with the Chicago police and also with the postal authorities there. They are also seeking among the acquaintances of the parents to see if anyone is miss ing from the vicinity.

War correspondents who have been watching the fighting in the Balkans have told heartbreaking- stories of the sufferings of soldiers and civilians. Women and children who took no part in the fighting were compelled to leave their homes to escape bullets or to avoid starvation. During the hostili- ties near ChorIu and Seidler there were heavy rains which turned the roads in to quagmires through which OK teams dragged the heavy carts with diffi- culty and which made foot passage difficult.

THE COED QUESTION

we ask, would be advised? We cannot believe that those men who have left tha university as graduated are so blind to the educational conditions of Alabama as not to realize that there is not one in- sttution for women in the state recog- nzed by the United States department of education as belonging to even Class II.
 It Is hardly possible that the thoughtful alumni of such an institution as the Uni versity of Alabama have made so little study of college standards as not to rec ognize that with the possible exception
 of one the institutions for women In Ala bama are no more than advanced high schools operating under the high sound ing names of college and granting de- grees because they: help draw students. Whatever may be one's personal views on the subject of co-educaton we cannot afford 10 ignore the fact that so long as our university is the only institution in Alabama whose standard has secured recognition, the closing of it's doors to the women of the state may be theoret- ically declaration against co-educa- ton, but in practical results it will be a declaration against their higher educa- ton. However, far behind the rest of the states in most matters educational statis- ties may force us to confess ourselves,
 1t is safe to assume that Alabama has

 Highly suggestive of the fatal blindness Fo the whole, which too often comes as a result of prejudice against part, is the Epecial appearing in the Tuesday issue of (he Birmingham News. under the head lines. Coed May Be Barred. Prejudice gainst Women Students at the Univers- |ty is Growing
 Most remarkable is the alternative of fered the women of our state in the dec- |aration that 'the co-eds must either get married or stop coming to the Univers-
 ty." The getting married is all right, but why not go to the university first? Almost naive is the manner in which this possibility is overlooked Truly bewilder- Ing Is the complete ignoring of the fact hat the most advanced thinkers in the world of educated men are unanimous In their belief that 1t is the woman who hoes not married who most of all needs Ehe most genuine education if we would produce a genuinely educated nation. There is a world of suggestiveness in the question, "are the students of the |male persuasion ready to do something to Eet.t girls to attend some other semi

not yet retrogressed to the point of plac- | ing herself on record as opposed to train | ing the brains of her women who are to | rear as we'll so bear her citizens | Aside from this education of the moth- | CTS of the state can the most conserya- | tive of us afford to overlook the fact that against 2373 men teachers in the state there are 446S women engaged in | teaching our children. Can we dare close
 our eyes to the report of the state depart
 ment that more than two-thirds of our public school teachers held only second
 and third grade certificates? Can the most optimistic of us hope that they will ever hold anything else if we close
 the doors of our one standard college
 10 the sex which among the teachers is
 so overwhelmingly in the majority? Would
 any mature alumnus give serious support
 to this agitation among the male students if he stopped to consider that of all the
 high school teachers in Alabama last year only 95 had even attended a college of recognized standard and still fewer had graduated? Can .ny of us believe that our state will ever educate it's ehil- dren until it first educates it's teachers "The indications are." according to the correspondent, that there will be more talk to this effect (barring out the wom-
 en) 'as the female of the species con
 tinues to share honors in the class room.'' It is inconceivable that any appreciable number of men students in any southern
 institution, would take such stand be
 cause the co-eds wits are too keen for the class comfort of some of the men students" Surely the men of Alabama
 arc too chivalrous and too just even in tEer pride and ambition for honors for such point to have any real weight with them.
 The marrow of the whole bone of con
 tention is probably hidden in the com plaint that there are so few women stu dents that they are in the way. May we suggest that if ''in the way 1t is far more probably because practically no ac- commodations have been provided for them? It is only fair to explain that their fewness is due to this lack of dormitorv accommodations, and that numbers and
 nt mbers of ambitious Alabama girls have
 been unable to get into the university for this reason.
 As conditions now exist there are no
 doubt details of management which prove annoying to even the most fairmnded of the men students. Let them remem- Der, however that these same details have disappeared from other co-educa- tlonal institutions almost immediately upon the provision of proper accommo- l dations for the women. Let the strength,
 energy, and powerful influence now given i to the effort to bar o1t the women of
 Alabama be given instead to an effort | to provide adequate dormitory accom-
 modations and chaperonage and estab.

 of the details of supervision.
