SAN DIEGO, Cal, October 26.---
That Mrs. Sarah Margaret Schick s
baby may not bear the stigma of
Jail birth, immediate release of the
mother on bail will be sought by
Adam Thompson, her attorney, when
Mrs. Schick is arraigned today on
a charge of fJrgerv.
Mrs. Schick will be brought be,
fore Justice Lacy d. Jennings, who
last week held Mr.. and Mrs. Il.
Drew Clark in $500 bail on the
same charge. The three are alleged
TO have conspired to seize the prop
erty of the missing George E.
Schick, wealthy real estate operator,
through forged power of attorney.
In view of Mrs. Schick S confes-
sion and her condition, Thompson
will seek to have her bail set low
er than $500. If she is able to
raise the amoinl set, it is expected
that the district attorneys office
will allow her to go free without
arrest on any other charge.
The Clarks have not attempted
to furnish bail, as the district at
torney's office would file fresh
charges against them rather than
let the pair be at liberty.
Mrs. Schick is expected to be
come mother in about six weeks.
