Meanwhile the passage Of time

she had not been to see her huS-
band and had no intention Of

while I have had to have
Brown arrested on several occa-
sions before for cruelty to me
and our six children, I have
always relented and felt sorry
for him before he had completed
serving any sentence imposed
on him by the court.
But this time it is different
I still feel sorry for anyone that
faces such a horrible thing as
a whipping but something must
be dore with Brown and maybe
this will do him some good, but
I most certainly will not in

fused CHA permission to build on
a Bethesda, Nd, site, Arlington
county, Virginia, granted permits
sion to use Sutton Hall, at Lyon

The Board Of Commissioners lis
tened to the promise of w. C.

that emergency cases would re-
ceive treatment at the proposed
hospital, and responded by grant
ing the organizations plea.

The property comprises l0%
res on a bluff overlooking the
Potomac, owned by DR.. Richard
M. Sutton as residence, four ad-
ditic1al lots and part of a fifth
lot, the whole being approximately
! IL acres.
The present property is valued
at between $75,000 and 500, 900,

serve as 15-bed hospital, accord
ing to Mr.. Kirkpatrick.
OTHER BUILDINGS
Other buildings besides the resi-

Conversion of the property at

bedroom. The ring, the mother
said, was worn by Emma the
morning of the day she and the
other children were found dead.
The ring was not on Emma's hand
when her body was found.
Mrs. Petri insisted the room had
been cleaned and swept many
times since the day Of the tragedy,
May 8. It was not possible, the
mother said, that she could have
failed to see the ring if it had
been there all the time.

Finding of the broken ring led
the Petris to move. Authorities
said they feared their home was
haunted"
Also without suitable explana.
ton was the mothers report to
police three weeks ago that she
had seen the snarling face Of a
man pressed against a window.
He disappeared when she
screamed.
A week later, the Petris re-
ported, they returned home to
find the house ransacked, cloth.
ing and papers spread over the
floor, and a floor board ripped
up.
These happenings, particularly
the mystery of the celluloid ring,
authorities said, probably will lead
to reconvening of the coroner's
jury.

had plenty to say about Cadet Can

Here is what Backfield Coach Grea-
son had to say about the Squadron S
ball carriers:
". M. is. offense is probably
more versatile than any we've PLAYED
against this year. Coach Hubert does
not depend on any one attack-he has
several fine runners, an excellent
passer, his kicker is better than the
average, and the blockers are very eff

are plenty others, too"
The Fighting Squadron's line will
greatly outweigh that of Wake For

boys will have greater chances OF win

the Virginians and Wake will need
