HEAVEST CHAG SNOW INHSTORY BRAWL INJURIES FATAL TO CAROLINA STUDENT Pennsylvania Youth, Struck on Head Trying to Enter Woman's Apartment, Dies. v the Associated Press. Traffic Tied Up and Schools " RALEIGH, N. O, March 27.—James Closed by 19.1-Inch Fall Since Tuesday. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, March 27.—The snow had ended today, but the slush and drifts lingered on. The snow stopped last night as .ud- denly and as unexpectedly as it started Tuesday morning, leaving Chicago and it5 suburbs shrouded in the heaviest continuous fall in the city’s history— 19.1 inches, Although the city was no longer faced with the necessity of fighting more snow, it had by no means coped with what it already had. Traffic was still delayed and in _some cases paralyzed, schools were still dismissed and streets and sidewalks clogged with snow. Street car lines, hardest hit of the transportation systems, were able to serve cusomers on most of the main routes, but were far from normal and were not even attempting to run on many of the branch lines. Twenty thou- sand men and 250 pieces of machinery 'T.de all night attempting to clear the rails. Other transportation lines were more fortunate, with the elevated and subur- ban railways not only maintaining their usual service, but carrying the added burden of persons unable to get to work on street cars or by automobile. Motor clubs reported that all high- ways leading to Chicago were blocked and intercity bus services were sus- pended. The roads in Southern Illinois and in parts of Indiana held hundreds of snowbound motorists. Cessation of the storm ended fears for the city’s milk supply, which was partially cut off yesterday. Heads of the larger dairies promised full deliv- eries today. Six more deaths yesterday brought the number attributed to the storm to 10. The cost in dollars was not even estimated, thousands being spent in clearing streets—$50,000 in the Loop alone. Undermining of parts of the Lake Shore drive by the waves, collapse of roofs over a half dozen buildings and hundreds of automobile accidents, all were charged up to the elements. ‘The effect on crime was unusual. Not & single case was placed on the trial sheet in the Morals Court yesterday for the first time in a year. The court usually has 50 cases a day. Only six robberies were reported, but many jew- elers kept their shops locked, due to the immobility of the police. BOBBED HAIR PROBLEM STILL STIRS LONDON LONDON (#).—Hard-working stenog- raphers who can't decide even now whether to “let it grow” may be com- forted to know that titled heads are in the same anguish. Hair is still the major prblem in feminine circles about London. ‘The season’s edict that only long tresses are pmfir has zesulted in revolt. West End irdressers report that every day they clip scores of hard- grown fringes intended to become heavy erowning glories. Princess Arthur of Connaught, Prin- cess Ingrid of Sweden, and the Infantas Beatrix and Maria Cristina of Spain are among those who keep to shorn ‘The Marchioness of Londonderry, Lady Louis Mountbatten, Lady Inver- clyde, the former actress June and Lady Anne Hunloke have refused to bow to the hairpin.

She was later identi- fied as Mrs. Robert Lewis, who also| occupled an apartment in the exclusive section near the governor’s mansion. Seven persons, three of them women, are held for the coroner’s inquest. Po- lice are seeking Robert Lewis, husband of one of the women held.
