Pharmacist
Now Crime
Expert

BERKELEY, Cal, Oct. 6
0.N.S0.-From an obscure phar-
macist to an internationally
known criminologist-all because
of the stamp collecting hobby.
That's how E. o. Heinrich,
solver of many murder and Grim.
inal mysteries, learned the art of
criminology, he admitted today.
During his graduate days at the
University of California, Heinrich
took up the hobby of stamp col
Letting and the minute attention
and detail which goes with the
hobby.
He became a pharmacist upon
graduation, and turned his atten-
ton from stamps to the pastime
of trying to decipher the hand
writing Of various doctors pre-
scriptions.
It was a natural step to the
study of old manuscripts, and
when the X-ray became more COM
mercialized he brought it into use,
and then began applying it to old
paintings to determine their au-
thenticity.
Then he turned his attention to
forgery, and from there to exam
lining clues in connection with
criminal activities. 1t wasn't long
before police were calling on him
to examine in minute details a
scrap of paper, a piece Of cloth,
suspected documents.
Today he is recognized by police
and criminologists from all parts
of the world as one Of the greatest
in his line.

TRY This way TO
QUICKLY Relieve
eczema ITCHING

If your skin is broken out with
"fiery" or weeping" eczema, you
want to relieve the intolerable itch
ing and burning as quickly as pos
sible. Resinol Ointment does this
and also combats the irritation
caused by eczema-its oily base be-
ing ideal for penetrating the outer
layers of the skin and securing
deeper action.
Wash the affected parts with
warm water and Resinol Soap. It
is especially suited to tender skin
soaps containing too much alkali
may irritate. After washing off
scales and crusts, pat dry with a
soft cloth. Do not rub.
Apply a thin layer of Resinol
Ointment, letting it remain for sew
eral hours. Apply again literally
at bedtime leaving on all night.
The longer Resinol is in ~~
contact with the skin, the .:T
more good it does. 49,

system Mr.. Holmes said. Because OF
the interest the public has taken IN
this park-it is estimated that more
than 10000 people visited it to see the
Indian Mound this past summer-Mr.
Frutchey has offered to deed an ad-
ditional tract of land surrounding the
Mound to the State, to become a part
of this State park. When this addl-

mark site will extend all the way from
the Indian Mound over to the Little

still well preserved, Mr.. Holmes SAID.
The Indian mound proper is now be-
ne enclosed with a barbed wire fence
six feet high and containing SIX
strands of wire, to keep trespassers
and the curious away from the mound
Until excavation work is resumed next
spring, Mr.. Holmes said. The forestry
division is supplying the wire and Mr.
