Amnesia Victim Found by

Mishap.

more than 10 hours, w. E. Bowman,
Kelly Field soldier, found staggering
along the sidewalk at st. Mary's and

Police are mystified as to the source
of the blow which caused Bowman's
intense pain and blank mind.
The only definite conclusion CLEAN
ed by the police from his disconnected
mumblings at the Robert B. Green
Hospital, where he was sent, brings
forth the theory that he was struck
by an automobile. He consistently
repeated the single word "automo-
bile to questions but attempts to
elicit details brought no aid from the
mystery victim.
Though there were no scalp abras-
ions or cuts on the head to indicate
the position of the blow, hospital at
tendants after administering emerg-
ency treatment were convinced that
the soldiers condition is serious.
After treatment he was transferred
to the Base Hospital at Fort Sam
