It prohibition is ever achieved
there still will be those who can
"sing to thee only with mine eyes."
And those songs. many penned by

time. the songs begin to have refer-

some 20 years ago has been paral-

A girl had been found drowned in
s lake in the Adirondacks. Her head
and face had been battered. She was
identified as a. young worker in a
factory operated by wealthy relatives
of Gillette. A strong circumstantial
case was made against young Gil-

girl whose condition indicated that
