He had gone to the field with his

German Professor Declares
Evolution Antiquated

Berlin, Sept. 26.-LP-The Acer-
bites aroused by the celebrated Day
ton, Tenn, Evolution trial" appear to
have been transferred to Germany,
where a sharp debate on the Oar
winian theory has been raging among
scientists. The trouble started when
Prof. Albert G. P. Fleischmann, pro-
fessor of Embryology at the Univer-
sity of Erlangen. Bavaria, and a
noted writer on Darwinism, claimed
recently in the Munich Neueste Mach
richie, that the Darwinian theory of
the origin of species has been contra
dicted by later researches of science
and that but few scientists still ac-
cept it.
This led twelve professors OF
palaeontology and zoology in the
! university of Munich to issue pub.
lie statement, declaring that now. as
formerly, they regard the formula
tion of the doctrine Of the origin
of species as among the highest
achievements of their respective sci
ences. They expressed the opinion
that this viewpoint is shared by al.
most all representatives of their
branches of learning.
The controversy promises 10 con.
tinue Justify, drawing an increasing
number Of debaters into its scope.

The decision followed request ty
the Bismarck Tribune for ruling

still breathing but dying. Before he
could summon help by telephone, she
had expired, and without being able
to say a word that might have ex-
planned the tragedy.
Mr.. Patzkowski was found lying
dead upon his bed, his chest pierced
by a shotgun wound. He had been
instantly killed, it was indicated.
Baby Asleep
Still asleep in his crib in the same
bedroom was his year old son.
Two small daughters of the cou-
pie, aged and 8, were found still
asleep in an adjoining bedroom. They
could not recall hearing any sounds
or disturbance.
A hired man. who slept in the barn,
said he knew nothing of the occur
renee. Sheriff Olaf Enger, and DR..
r. W. Allen Of Forman, who were
called to the farm early today, found
l2-gauge repeating shotgun tucked
away in a cubby hole in the attic,
and also found an empty she'll hidden
nearby.
Find Shell
It appeared to have been newly ex.
ploded, they stated. Nearby. tucked
away, they found about 500 in bills.
Furthr search revealed two ounce
bottle about two-thirds full of a
milky preparation standing on a
dresser in the bedroom Of the dead
man. Authorities hold the theory
that Mrs. Patzkowski died of poison
ing. They will have the preparation
and contents of the dead woman's
stomach analyzed.
Authorities have obtained informa-
ton to the effect that Mrs. Patzkow-
ski had been i'll and had appeared

A coroner's verdict probably will be
deferred pending report on the stom-
ach examination.
