 If Bruno Richard Hauptmann's defense counsel attempt to show that the small body taken from ( hastily scraped grave in the Sour lands was not that of Col Lind
 bergh's son, the state will add sci cntific testimony-with touch or painful sentiment-to prove there was no mistake when the Colonel identified the body.
 Shortly before the baby was stolen from his crib in HopeWell' his curls were cut. He became boy instead of a baby. Mrs Morrow preserved one of the curls.
 Scientists, determined to make | Identification of the child's body, took strands of hair and compared them with the locks In Mrs Mcr- | rows possession. They matchedb not only in appearance, but Tn chemical composition.
 Has 50 Witnesses Remington, N. J., Jan 16-(UP) Edward J. Reilly, chief defense counsel for Bruno Richard Haupt- mann, asserted today he had oo witnesses' whom he could put 2n the stand If he chose. to show that Isidor Fisch, Hauptmanns 1riend' nau DOSSeSSIOH OL ''NS~o'
 "One of them s man named Gustav Lukates, and I have plenty more like him, if I need them. You know Fisch tried to sell that ram som money to several people.
 Reilly's declaration was designed to counteract the secrecy with which the government has brought four witnesses back from Germany. among them relatives of Fisch, the fur cutter whom Hauptmann ac- cuses of leaving the ransom money behind when he went to Germany to die.
 Remington, N. J., Jan. 15-(UP) Albert D. Osborn, son of a pre- vious witness, today was the seventh government expert to charge the writing of the L d = bergh ransom notes against Bruno Richard Hauptmann, accused as tho murderer of Charles A. Lind" bergh.> Jr. ,,. of his distinguished father, addeo the weight of his handwrltns knowledge to six previous experts, and declared, at the start or ms testimony, his conviction that the n1nu IHdL WTOLC thC also wrote Hauptmann's applica- ton for an automobile license ana the request" writing, done after his arrest.
 Like the previous witnesses, the younger Osborn testified to his be- lief that the ransom notes were Il disguised handwriting, and that the specimens of the prisoners hand writing taken after his arrest were also in part disguised.
 osborn has the build of an ath- 1ete, and delivers his testimony forcefully. Like his father, he has made a study of script his lire work, and with him has stood side by side in many court cases involV- ing disputed documents.
 Osborn followed the outlines or his six predecessors in explaining his reason for condemntng the Bronx carpenter.
 Previously today, Harry l.. Cas- sidy, possessor of an engaging southern drawl and q sense of hu- nor, had enlivened the normal dul' scientific testimony by wise cracking" at the examining attor- news. But he had stuck to his proposition, and refused to waver  Frederck A. Pope, associate de- fense counsel.
 Winner Souder, of the United States bureau of standards, con- sidered one of the governments greatest Investigators of handwrit- l ing and documents, had followed | Cassidy, and delivered a scholarly announcement regarding his opin- ion that Hauptmann tried to dis guise his handwriting when he composed the ransom demands. On previous days. Albert $. Os- born, ruddy faced, deaf, and asser- tive, had sworn to his belief Haupt- mann vase the author, to be fol. lowed by another master of scrept | analysis, Elbridge W. Stein. John Tyrrell of Milwaukee, and Herbert J. Walter, of Chicago, had been the other two to bring the weight of their findings before the court.
 | Osborn the yvunger was still on the stand when court recessed. at 12:25 p. m., and the courtroom throng was happy in anticipation that tn. tedious handwriting testi- 1 mony--which Is so vital to tho states case--was drawing to a | close.
