Russian people" but that for
some reason Of protocol his script
was changed by others whom he

You're giving me no time. You

'Jewelry Bag
introduced
S&
AsEyidence

CLEVELAND R - A green ba
containing jewelry of DR.. Samue
H. Sheppard, found in hedge be-
side his home, bore no blood
stains, coroner's medical tech
nician testified today.
But on DR.. Sheppsrd's watch In
side, there were human blood
stains with the same "M-factor''
as the blood of the murdered Mar
ilyn Sheppard, said the witness,
Miss Mary Cowan.
The bag contained the watch, a
signet ring and a key chain belong
ing to the doctor, but none of them
contained fingerprints,. she con-
tinued.
The state contends DIR. Shep-
pard beat his pregnant wife to
death in their Bay Village home
last July a. He is on trial for first
degree murder.
DR.. Sheppard, in his story of
the murder, maintained that the
watch and other articles were TAX
en- from him by bushy-haired
slayer who later left him uncon.
scious on the beach in front of
his home.
The osteopath has stated that it
was not until he recovered con-
sciousness and returned to the
house that he first approached
Marilyn's lifeless, bloody body and
tested the pulse at her throat.
The state also produced Mari
lyn $ wrist watch, which was found
after the murder in DIR. Sheppard $
downstairs den, on the floor.
Miss Cowan testified that this
watch also bore no fingerprints,
but that it was stained with human
blood, which also contained the M
factor present in Marilyn's blood.
Prosecutor Thomas Parrino
showed Miss Cowan the contents
of the green bag.
The witness testified that when
she examined them on July S. the
watch, ring and chain were free
OF fingerprints. She added of the
watch:
"There were blood crusts on the
watch itself, blood in the crevices
and on the wrist band"
She said she made tests on these
cruSts and determined that they
were human blood.
Miss Cowan also testified that
she tried to type the blood. One
test proved inconclusive, but an
other showed, she added, that an
M-factor was present.
II think you previously stated
the M-factor was found to be, pres
ent in Marilyn Sheppard's blood,
is that correct?" Parrino asked.
''That is correct" replied Miss
Cowan.
Describing her examination of
Sheppard's trousers, the witness
said she found four human hairs
in the left front and right rear
pocket.
''The hairs were similar and
compatible with the hair of Mari
lyn Sheppard" Miss Cowani said,
srdetermined by scale count, color,
curl rana. diameter"
Asst. Prosecutor Parrino then
ended his . direct examination Of
Miss CoWan.
He did not pursue further the
significance Of Miss Cowan's testi-
mony about the discovery of the
hairs. However, he told a reporter,
it is every important"
