DR.. E. BOND,
ON STAND
Defense Brings Out Definition
of "Monstrosity" in Kruger
Case-Child Might Have
Been Normal, Claims Bulla.
NEWSPAPERS EVIDENCE

Testimony Of DR.. ]. M. Bulla. county
health officer. and DR.. S. Edgar Bond,
county coroner, at the time OF the
death Of infant John Smith. occupied
Friday mornings session Of the trial
of DR.. Frederick w. Kruger. charged
with manslaughter in connection with
the death of the infant.
Cloths and a newspaper in which
the child is alleged to have been
wrapped at the time of it's birth and
afterwards, were introduced by the
state as evidence.
Whether or not the child was a
monstrosity was questioned by the de-
tense, In DR.. Bonds testimony. Ac-
cording to the doctors statement, it
! was what is generally known as a
emonstrosity, although strictly speak
ing. monstrosity was ''something
horrible to look upon"
"Just what is a monstrosity. as
known to the medical profession?"
was asked Of the doctor by the de.
tense.
Defines Monstrosity.
Generally speaking. monstrosity
is q considerable deviation from the
normal, and something horrible to
look upon," DR.. Bond stated. He claim
ed that the child was not, strictly
speaking, horrible, although he ad
mitted on cross examination that he
had told newspaper reporter that it
was "called q monstrosity and prob
ably could not have lived any length
of time"
Controversy arose over the question
OF reading newspaper accounts OF the
incident, at the time 1t happened. AT
tav c{A a h1A c1in0 h0 -
of attorneys for the defense and the
prosecuting attorney. the question was
finally allowed to stand. and Judge
Cause overruled objections made by
the prosecution.
Claim was made by Dr. J. NJ Bulla
when asked concerning the develop
ment of the child's head, that new
born children are often born with
misshapen heads, and that sometimes
it takes several months for the head
to be restored to q natural shape
Z That this might have been true of the
Smith infant was claimed by DR.
Bulla. y. So ..--aasa.,2-.--
On cross examination, Dr. Bulla de
MED that there was anything in the
formation OF the. child's head that
could be called abnormal He ad
mitted later, however, that there were
several bones of the head that were
, underdeveloped.
On Stand in Afternoon.
DR.. Bulla took the stand for a shor
time again in the afternoon, and testi
fed as to his personal relations will

for the state.
He said that the rudiments Of brai,
cells were all present in the child, ant
that it was q natural tendency To-
bones to grow over exposed place.
on q child's head.
DR.. w. L. Misener. who PERSONAL,
made the autopsy on the child's body
was the next witness to take tn,
stand.
DR.. Misener testified on cross-ex
animation that the child what is ordin
arily knows as a monstrosity, that il

German to Be Studied
to Guard Against Foe
(By Associated Press)

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 5.-The
German language should be taught in
American Universities, colleges and
high schools, but not in the grades.
according to members who discussed
the subject at the annual convention
here Of the Association Of Colleges
and Secondary Schools of southern
states.
Professor Charles G. Maphis, Uni
versity of Virginia, president of the
association, declared that 1t would be
folly to eliminate the German language
from the colleges and universities of
this country because, in that way
I'VE could not understand what Ger
many Is doing in a scientific way"

(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Dec 5.-There was a per-
sistent rumor in the stock exchange
this morning that the supreme council
of the peace conference had threaten
ed Germany that unless the final peace
terms were agreed to. allied troops
would occupy Essen and Frankfort. Up
to this time the market has not been
affected by the report.
Of1cial announcement that Field
Marshal Wilson has gone to Paris in
response to "an urgent summons to
consult Marshal Foch in connection
with the peace treaty, is regarded by
some morning newspapers as OF con-
siderable significance. 1t is printed
along side the address made in Glas-
cow last evening by Andrew Bonar
Law, in which he said he believed the
allies had the power and If necessary
will exercise it, to insure ratification
Of the Versailles treaty by Germany
It is suggested that steps to exert
pressure on Germany may be immin
ent.
There has been enough solemn
finger wagging at the Germans, who
have come to believe 1t safe to defy
the allies. says the Daily Mail, in
commenting on the situation. "A wise
and merciful course would be to tell
them plainly that If within a fixed
time they do not comply with the
allied conditions and fulfill the treaty
terms the blockade will be renewed.
PARIS, Dec. 5.-The supreme coun
ell today considered further the note
to be sent to Germany regarding the
protocol but did not complete the
document.

prene council yesterday with Marshal
