Scientist Who Killed
Himself With Venom
Had Cancer II Years
BY the Assoeiaied Press

ANN ARBOR, Mich. Aug. g.
A University of Michigan scientist
who killed himself with snake
venom because he couldn't face
prosecution for a petty embezzle-
ment suffered continual pain"
from cancer for years before his
death.
An autopsy on the body Of DR..
Malcolm H. Soule, 81, disclosed
yesterday that he had cancer Of
the nose and sinus for - years
and had undergone several oper-
ations in a vain attempt to cure it.
DR.. Dorm L. Hinerman, who
performed the autopsy. said slides
of the scientists brain cells were
being examined to determine If
there had been any deterioration
due to constant pain.
DR.. Soule, a world known au-
thority on tropical diseases and
head Of Michigan's bacteriology
department for 16 years, was fired
Friday after admitting he forged
$487. .05 in expense vouchers.
The university's board OF re-
gents said he would be turned
over to law officers for prosecu-
ton.
Three hours later the scientist
was dead. He had used q hypo-
dermic needle to give himself
eight injections OF snake venom
and morphine. In q suicide note
to his widow, Alma. he explained
he couldn't bear the disgrace Of
being fired.
Private funeral services were set
for DR.. Soule today.
