1 ologist of the University of Chicago,
was not permitted to appear as wit
ness for the state in the Plans schmidt
case yesterday afternoon and 1t is
possible that he may not be allowed to
testify In the trial at all.
The defense objected to- him testi-
flying because they contended that
ithey had not been given notice that
he would be a witness for the state.
The fight to keep him out Of the case
altogether will be made today.
Attorneys for the defense are basing
their fight to keep him out on the fact
that they declare it would require sew
! eral days for them to confer with him
before he goes on the stand.
| Esther Reeder was placed on the
stand yesterday afternoon but was
permitted to complete her testimony
in ten minutes. The witness appear
ed nervous and both sides were con-
lsiderate of her feelings. No new in
formation was gotten from her testi
mony. She said the prisoner wore u
Khaki suit and red necktie on the FRI!
day night before the murder.
! All the time Miss Reeder was on the
stand PfanSCnmidt kept his eyes on
her. AS she passed him he nodded
to her and she returned the greeting.
When she identified the bloody suit
as the clothes which Pfahschmidt
wore on Friday night, she hung her
head.
The bloody clothes. parts of bloody
pillows and mattresses, plats of the
bfanschmidt premises, tag on clothes,
Torso shoe, class rin on clothes, and
clock works today were admitted as
evidence by judge Davis who refused
