ON CROSSING

The grade crossing over the B.
& o. Railroad tracks at Sunny
side, Md, was blamed by a coro-
ner's jury for the death of Lester
Deanwood, "a, an employe at the
United States Experimental Farm

body was found lying alongside
the tracks this morning.
Judge George Phillips, of Ber,
wyn, who impaneled the jury said

his automobile last night to go to
work.
The car was found near the

cided to walk to the farm and was
struck by one of two fast trains
that pass at the crossing shortly
after 7 o'clock.
Deanwood's body was carried to

Despite optimistic reports on
the condition of N'Gi, prize
gorilla, the little apes at
tendants today believe he is
fast slipping away.
His breathing has become more
difficult and he has taken scarcely
any nouriShment for more than
"a hours. Late last night DR..
David E. Buckingham was able
to force the greater part Of a pint
Of milk and a few ounces of
orange Juice down his throat
with syringe. This morning
he again took orange juice.
Attendants, however, feared he
retained the milk and fruit only
because he was too weak to re-
ject it.
DR.. Buckingham is the only
member of N'Gi's little corps Of
medical and civilian attendants
who refuses to give up hope.
While physicians and keepers
continue their fight to save N'GfS
life preparations are under way
for Prof. H. c. Bingham, formerly
of Yale University primate lab
oratories and now of the National
Research Council, to begin an
extensive course of study of Okero

chimpanzee in the cage adjoining

Prof. Bingham has recently
returned from a study of the
higher apes in their natural sur
roundings. He expects to COM

tions of Okero and Teddy, both
of whom are unusually fine speci-
mems of their kind.
