WAUKEGAN. Ill. June 10
While all Lake county gaped and
marveled. Josephine Davis. bosom
friend and confidente of Marian
Lambert. continued today to ruth
Iessly knock apart the structure of
circumstantial evidence which the
state had so carefully built up
against Will Orpet. Miss Davis was
supposed to have been the prosecu-
tion's star witness. When her direct
testimony was ended Orpet was
grinning and his lawyers We're elat-
ed. Not once during the morning
did she blacken the students case.
The climax Of her testimony. how
ever, came suddenly in her cross
examination just at noon. She was
asked whether she remembered a
birthday party
Yes" she replied. Marian was
crying, ana she said to me: If VIII
Orpet gives me up and marries Co
leste Youker / will kill myself
The defense made no attempt 10
conceal its JOY at this statement. 1t
was squarely in line with its whole
theory OF Marian Lambert's death.
The prosecutions method Of
questioning was along the hammer
and tongs way. Time and again
the attorneys for the state pleaded,
ridiculed and finally in desperation
denounced her for. her replies.
Attorneys Attack Girl.

incensed, Atty. Joseph Lyn ripped
out.

innate friend OF the defendant

shot back at him.
Are you his intimate friend
now"
I am not"
"DiSn't YOU shake hands with him
after leaving the stand here last
night o"

Here the court interviewed and
the prosecution temporarily absn-
doned this line of attack.
Josephine couldn't remember she
declared. many Of the little Incl
dents on which the state has built
its case
Where she was expected 10 testi-
fy that Marian was happy and care
free prior 10 her death. as she testi-
fed at the coroner's inquest. Jose
phine stated today that Marian was
morose and sad particularly after
the announcement of Orpets en-
gagement 10 Celeste Youker was
made. At that time. Josephine de-
clared. Marian had said:
"Tn fix him." and thereafter grew
sullen.
