Buy Hosiery Long Enough,
Advises Woman Expert

This advice from an expert may
be appreciated by harassed hus-
bands as well as their wives and
unmarried women, also.
Elizabeth NJ Lippard, instructor
in clothing extension at the Penn
sylvania State college, says that
women's hosiery bills can be kept
down by wise buying and good care.
Miss Lippard advised women to
buy two-thread weight only for eve
ming; three-thread or even heavier
for day time wear.
ITO select your correct foot size"
she said, stand on a ruler, meas
ure from heel to toe, and add three
quarters of an inch to this measure
ment.' This is necessary because
the toe of the stocking should ex-
tend half an inch beyond the foot,
Miss Lippard believes.
Be sure that the hose is long
enough-30 inches is average: short
women may wear 26 to 28-inch
lengths; tall women, 33 to 35 inches. :
When you pull the length of the
stocking and foot gently, it should
have an easy stretch of several
inches and should spring back into
place.
Naturally full-fashioned stockings
fit best.
ASK about twist when buying
hosiery" Miss Lippard suggests. "A
crepe or high twist produces a more
durable product than loose or low
twist. The high twist resiSts snags
and is more attractive"
Another tip: Since silk deterio-
rates with age, it is wise to avoid
having too many silk hose on hand
at one time. Having fewer pairs
usually means better care of these
few

Mountain Sheep Still
Exist in National Park

Officials of Kings Canyon National
park have been awaiting positive
proof that mountain sheep still exist
in the new park Bands have pre-
viously been reported from the Mt.
Goddard and Mt Baxter sections Of
the park
A report recently made by Rus
sell Keene, a hiker. brought the con-
firmation needed On October 10,
1910, Keene discovered a band of
IA bighorns, at least three of which
were rams, on the western slope Of
Diamond peak east of Rae lakes
Early in the season a dead noun
tain sheep had been reported as hav-
ing been found in South Fork canyon
above Paradise valley, but no rang
ers were available to confirm the re-
port. A Sierra club mixer also had
reported dead eve in the same
vicinity but confirmation was again
lacking. Then had come the report
from Sierra club mixers that sign"
was encountered on Diamond mesa
during July. Now comes the good
news that. IA head actually were
seen.
One of the reasons for the crea-
ton Of Kings Canyon National park
early in the year was to throw add
ed protection around disappearing
forms of wildlife. 1T is apparent"
says Guy Hopping. assistant super
intendent. that park rangers actu-
ally have a band of mountain sheep
to protect" Plans are on foot to Gre
ate a refuge for this band of sheep
adjoining the park on T. t side
Of the Sierra.

 STILL SOUGHT
Search Centers Around Girls Home Now; Dist.
 Atty. Now in Charge

Lynn, Mass, July 24-(UP) - Search for the maniacal slayer of l0-year-old Frances Cochran cen- tered near her home today as au- thorfties expressed belief that a neighbor may have. ravished and mutilated the beautiful bookkeeper.
 Dist.-Atty. Hugh A. Gregg who returned from Washington to take charge of the investigation said the girl may have been lured to her death by some person she knew and trusted.
 Acting on his orders. a squad of State and municipal police search- ed vacant houses, garages and out- buildings in the area near the Cochran home for definie clue that would lead to the murderer who dumped the victims body in a ravine of 8 wooded lover's lane on the Lynn Salem -5wampscott line.
 Chief clue sought was an out- moded sqiare-backed auto in which the girl disappeared. She was seen to enter it late last Thursday aft ernoon three blocks from her house as she returned from work in a leather shop office. An anony- nous telephone call to radio sta- tion resulted in the discovery of her body Sunday.
 After a five-day manhunt for the slayer police were at a stale mate. A score of persons had been questioned and released including a dozen boy friends whose names have been found listed in the vic- tim's letters and diaries.
 The most promising suspect was Q 28-yeareold Chelsea man who op- Nrated 6 Lynn laundry route and q Dad e record of sex offenses.
 He was arrested yesterday in @aaelsea driving an auto similar to @Ae enc sought but was released G4soe several hours.
 A dozen plain clothesmen seeking possible clues mingled with 1000 mourners who thronged St. Luke's Methodist Church for the victims funeral services but obtained no Beads.
 Nedical-Examine Ignatius Ziel- ensli disclosed in an oral report on Ais autopsy that the girl was not eaain in the ravine where her body was found kicked and crushed, with c crab aprae tree limb damned down her throat.
 He said his examination of the numerous wounds indicated the slaying took place at some other place, perhaps near the Cochran home, perhaps in the slayer's auto.
 Authorities still sought the vic- tim's handbag, wrist watch and one white slipper which were not with tattered clothing found at the scene. They had obtained finger prints on a rock near the body, a few strands of hair found in the victims fingernails and a vague descr1ptAon of the death car.

 "The magnitude of the program, the importance of those who are contributing to 1t and the nature of the two benefitting organizations should make this an even greater oc- casion than the similar benefit giv- en last year which had an atten- dance of 10000 and which it will be remembered gave more than $23,- 900 to British Relief. hope every person in New England will feel free and welcome to join us.
