SLAINGIRL TO LIE INFORT LINCOLN Simplg Funeral Services to Be Conducted at Mount Rainier Church. ‘The body of Corinna Loring, mur- dered just two days before her wed- ding, will be buried in Fort Lincoln Cemetery this afternoon after simple funeral services in the Mount Rainler Methodist Church. Rev. Robert K. Nevitt, pastor of the church, will conduct the services. The dead girl's friends in the choir will &ing one of her favorite hymns, “Safe in the Arms of Jesus.” A prayer will be offered and two Psalms, the Forty- first and the Ninetieth, will be read. The pastor will read selections from the fiftieth chapter of I Corinthians, and another hymn will be sung. Then husbands of members of Corinna's Sunday School class will carry the coffin to the hearse, with the young women of the class acting as honor- ary pallbearers. Body to Be Clad in White. Friends said the body of the 27- year-old bride-to-be would be dressed for burial in a white dress, similar to a bridal gown. The coffin, however, will not be opeved at the church. The girl's mother, Mrs. C. A. Lor- | ing, will attend the funeral—one of | the few times she has appeared in public since the murder. With other members of the family, she went to | view the body Monday night and Sun. day took an automobile ride with her son-in-law, Leo Lojacono. Richard Tear, Corinna’s fiance, also | is expected to attend the funeral. ‘Tear was released yesterday by police, who had held him for investigation since the body was found Saturday. Morbid Crowd Expected. A crowd of morbidly curious spec- | tators was expected to appear for the | funeral and, since the church only | seats 300, it was believed police aid | swill be asked to save these seats for | the family and the friends of the| dead girl. | Corinna, who was to have been mar- | ried a, week ago today, disappeared | the preceding Monday evening. Her body was found in a thickly wooded[ section of Mount Rainier known as | Baddleback Ridge. Loring (Continued From First Paj THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Lojacono said yesterday | he is anxious to give police every| possible assistance. | Tear also is standing by to co-| operate with the investigation. Itzel eliminated Tear and Hampton as sus- | pects in the case after establishing | the fact that their alibis were in good | order. A coincidence in the murder my: tery is the fact that Miss Loring's funeral is set at the same hour as that of her uncle, Jacob Van Allen,| 59, a retired Army enlisted man, who | died from heart attack and shock Sat- urday night after learning that his/| niece had been brutally slain. Van! Allen lived at 1264 Oates street north- east. | Van Allen Autopsy Denied. It was denied emphatically, both | by authorities in Washington and| those in charge of the investigation | here, that an: move had been made | Typical of the wild rumors whica| have swept Mount Rainier since tiie| murder was a report relayed to poln‘e‘ this morning that Corinna Loring’s | body had been removed from its casket and a substitution made. | Policeman George Giddens of the| Mount Rainier force went to the| Hyattsville undertaking parlor and| verified the fact that the body was still | there. The story was no more fantastic | than scores of others which police have | tracked down. | Investigation Complicated. | Ttzel, who “broke” the Brady bomb murders at Seat Pleasant in 1930, was called in on the case Monday after- | noon. The earlier investigations wer carried on by Prince Georges County | police from Hyattsville and the Mount Rainier offices. The division of au- thority added a new complication to the riddle now in the hands of Itzel. | The clues found on the body and at | the scene of the murder already had been submitted for examination when | Itzel took charge of the case. The | Baltimore detective had difficulty es- tablishing just what had been found, when the discoveries were made nndi who made them. > I This task was involved further by ! the fact that hundreds of curiosity seekers and amateur sleuths had been ‘over the ground prior to Itzel's ar- rival. They had tramped through the thickets, searched the leaves and undergrowth, collected souvenirs and various articles which they felt might have a bearing on the case. Itzel Views Murder Scene. When Itzel went to the scene yester- day, he found only hard-packed earth and trampled bushes at the spot where tHe body was discovered. He was ac- companied to the scene by Ed Fletcher, & resident of the vicinity, who made the gruesome find while exercising his rabbit dogs. Itzel was unable to say whether Miss Loring had been murdered on the spot or her body brought there after death. Bloodstains found on the ground Saturday and the presence of the girl's trampled wristwatch and earrings indicated she died on the spot following a struggle. Deep incisions at opposite points on her forehead convinced police the body had been dragged some distance with & metal instrument, such as a pair of ice tongs. = Cord Is Scrutinzed. Rabbit hunters who had run their dogs through the thickets almost daily were convinced the body could not possibly have been in place more than 24 hours. ‘The cord about the girl’s throat is being compared with another section of twine found in the basement of the Loring home.

SCOTTSBORD GASE PROBE RENEWED Grand Jury Venire includes Colored Persons, Meet- ing Court Decision. By the Associated Press. SCOTTSBORO, Ala., November 13.— A Jackson County grand jury was summoned today to reinvestigate the five-year-old “Scottsboro case,” in which nine colored men are charged with attacking two white women aboard a freight train. Judge A. E. Hawkins, who, in April, 1931, sentenced eight of the nine to death, issued the call after a new jury roll had been completed. On the venire of 36 from which the grand jury of 18 will be chosen were two colored persons. Lieut. Gov. Thomas E. Knight, jr., special prosecutor, said the inclusion of colored men would meet any con- stitutional question raised in previous trials. Discrimination Charged. ‘The new inquiry was necessitated by | the United States Supreme Court de- cision in March, which upheld a de- fense contention that colored persons had been “systematically exeluded” from the grand and trial juries in Jackson and Morgan Counties. The decision was on the appeal of Clarence Norris and Haywood Patter- son, both of whom were sentenced to death. The prisoners are charged with at- tacking Mrs. Victoria Price and Ruby Bates March 25, 1931, They were ar- rested at Paint Rock. In the first trials in April, 1931, eight were convicted. Trial of the ninth resulted in a hung jury. § The Alabama Supreme Court set aside one death sentence, holding that the prisoner, Eugene Williams, was a juvenile, and, on appeal to the United States Supreme Court, the other seven convictions were set aside. Change of Venue Granted. After this reversal a change of venue to Morgan County was granted. Patter- son was first tried in Morgan County in April, 1933, and convicted with the extreme penalty.
