STARTLING NOTE
INTERJECTED IN
:, ;. GAINES MURDER
Attorney Claims Body Of
Sylvia Gaines Never Iden-
tilted = New Clues.

OLYMPIA, Wash, May 27.-An
unexpected contention that the body
which was found on the shore of
Green Lake in Seattle last June was
not that of Sylvia Gaines has inter-
iected a new and starting note into
the Wallace C. (Bob) Gaines ap-
peal from his, conviction as his
daughters murderer.
Attorney G.. E. M. Pratt, of Seat
tie, appearing as friend of the
Court, told the Supreme Court that
the body was not that of Sylvia
Gaines and had never been identi-
fled as such during the Gaines
trial The body was found to be
four inches taller than Sylyia's, the
attorney declared.
The fingers were blunter than
Sylvia's and the chin was receding,
while Sylvia's was not, the attorney
asserted.
The body weighed 100 pounds,
whereas that of the Gaines girl
weighed only 107 pounds, he told
the Court
The defense attorneys centered the
attack on the testimony of Louis
Stern, one of the principal wit
nesses for the prosecution who told
the trial jury that Gaines virtually
confessed the Staying to him.
No date has been set for decision
on the appeal.

BELIEVES GIRL ALIVE

SEATTLE, May 81. = Attorney
Pratt expressed positive belief that
Sylvia Gaines is alive. based on evil
dence he gathered during the last
few months.
The attorneys theory is that the
Gaines girl was kidnapped by ruff
fans who had slain another girl and
wishing to cover up the evidence
of the crime the gang placed
Sylvia's clothes on the body of the
other girl.
Affidavits gathered by the testi-
mony tend to bear out his beliefs
and he said ultimately Sylvia will
appear and save her father from the
gallows. This the attorney said he
believes.
Attorney Pratt, who has been an
attorney here for 40 years, declared
he is working on the case solely
in the interest of justice and has
been retained by no one. While
reading the transcripts of testimony
recently, he found there ad been
no positive identification of the
body. Clothes found near and on
the body had however, been identi-
fled by several witnesses
