FRENCH PROBE
\. ACTRESS DEATH
Examination of Body Of
Olive Thomas \.
Ordered
BY G: F. Bertelli

Universal Service STAFF Correspondent
PARIS, Sept. 12.-The examina-
ton of the body of Olive Thomas was
ordered to determine whether the
actress died from the effects of mer-
curry or from a slow, insidious poison
which might have been administered
previously or taken by mistake.
Universal Service was informed to-
day by high police authority.
''The death is certainly myster-
ious,' said the official, "and the
theory of suicide has been definitely
abandoned. Therefore French justice
requires the fullest investigation in
order to satisfy public opinions. The
body will be embalmed Immediately
after the autopsy. If the verdict is
favorable as we hope, permit for
it's shipment to America will be given
Immediately"
In event the permit is Immediately
forthcoming shipment to America
will probably be made September 18.
Owing to the departure of Jack Pick
ford, her husband, and the absence
from Paris Of any kinsfolk of the
dead actress it is not likely that a
service will be held here.
"Olive Thomas certainly believed
she was acting for film on the
Hateful morning she mistakenly par
took Of the poison for a sleeping
potion"
While the body of the beautiful
American movie star rests in the
Paris morgue for tomorrow's autopsy
which the judicial authorities ord
cred yesterday OF ascertain exactly
under what circumstances she swal-
lowed mercurial tablets, all Paris
continued to discusse the un-
timely death Of Jack Pickford's wife
and the above statement was made
by Princess Avaresco, cousin of the
King Of Rumania, in an exclusive in
terview with Universal Service. The
princess is famous authorities on
feminine psychology. She also Is a
historian and was an official lecturer
on Contemporary History with the
American troops during the war.
Meanwhile no one was allowed to
view or touch the remains of the
beautiful movie star with the excep-
ton Of sworn doctors and poison ex-
perts.
"The case Of Olive Thomas" said
Princess Avaresco, lis the most in
teresting Of its kind in many years.
After careful study of the known
circumstances, I do not hesitate to
state my belief that, under the hyper
excitement incident to nights So
journ amidst Partisan dancing
scenes, Olive entirely lost her sense
of reality on that fatal morning.

THE atmosphere in Paris today is
deteriorated by American pleasure
seekers and is decidedly dangerous

Paris undoubtedly is a great
danger to young and inexperienced
girls, who have not developed their
will power" said Gertrude Djngman,
director of the work of the. Young
Women's Christian association in
France.
MANY American girls" she said,
"are lured by the reputed glamor of
Partisan pleasure resorts. They lose
their natural restraint and moral
stamina upon arriving here"
Prohibition in the United States
was blamed for the unrestrained
action of Americans in Paris by Cort-
land Bishop, former president of the
Aero club of America and one of
the best known Americans in Paris.
"A dry America" he said, sis re-
sponsib1e for the orgies of certain
Americans in Paris. Unable to OBJ
tain champagne openly in America,
they indulge violently as soon as they
leave American ports.
"If prohibition continues in the
United States ! predict that rs per
cent of the Americans visiting Eu-
rope will be physical wrecks after a
months stay"
Professor Emil e. Boutroux, men,
Der of the French academy and in
ternationally prominent as psy-
chologist, made the following state
ment to Universal Service:
"Olive Thomas sad end is only
a luminous instance of many other
similar cases which do not come

public. Innumerable young and
sweet American girls visiting Paris
often meet their undoing and some
times death in the maelstorm Of life
in this cosmopolitan city.

Back Brewer kicked field goal, again
putting his team in the lead. During
the remaining periods Maryland played
an entirely defensive game and aided
by Brewers sensational punts held the
Orange scoreless.
Brewers exhibition of punting was
about the finest ever seen here. His
kicks averaged sixty to seventy yards
and it was due to his ability to get
them away that for the last three ses-
sions the ball was in Syracuse territory
about three -fourths of the time.
Fumbles by Syracuse at critical periods
and poor generalship wrecked several
rosy chances to score.

CorneliS swift rushing attack, in
which the forward pass was brought
into play at opportune moments, and
superior line play and kicking proved
Columbia's undoing. The New Workers.
had only three chances to strike, and
only once made good. An intercepted
forward pass by Burtt in the third
period gave Columbia the ball on Cor

by another forward pass, Harris to
Canapary. which took the ball to Cor

rushes, with Applebaum carrying the
ball, scored touchdown, Applebaum
taking it over.
Put on the defensive early in the
game, Cornell took possession of the
ball after Burtt had failed on a place

Ithacans rushed from their own 90

The Ithacans scored one more in the
third period by rushing and the for

Williams Flattens
Wesleyan In Their
Annual Struggle
From q spec,a, Correspondent

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. Nov. 1S-
Williams flattened Wesleyan by the
score of 80 to IA in their annual foot
ball game here to-day. The Purple's
attack could not be denied and the
visitors were forced back by kicking
a pretty goal from placement on the
3s-yard line in the third period.
Wesleyan went into the contest de-
termined to keep Captain Boynton. the
Williams star, covered. The invaders
were only partly successful however,
for he broke away for a number of
substantial runs. Richmond played a
strong game in the backheld, rivalinr
Boynton for the honors.
Although steadily pushed back, Wcs-
leyan fought gamely until the last and
succeeded in crossing the Puppies goal
line twice. The first score for the
visitors came in the third period, when
Peck ran back the kickoff eighty-tive
yards across the Purple goal line in
the most sesational play of the game.
Later he scored again on a forward
pass.
Most of the scoring came in the sec
ond period when Williams crossed the
opposing goal line five times. Two of
the Purple touchdowns during the
game resulted from fumbles. The
Purple alternated between straight
football and the serial game for max
ing its advances. Peck was Wesley
ans star. Both Abbott and Boynton
punted in fine style.
