The girl had not expected to leave home that evening when her mother went to church. She changed her plans suddenly, however, for some reason and departed after exchanging a house dress for a street dress and drawing on an overcoat. The girl left in such haste she forgot the belt to her dress. The most important clues to date, 'Lieut. Itzel said today, are the man's motorist glove and a blood-stained paper napkin found in a lonely clump of pines.

But as for Corinna being afraid of the man, that is absurd. “A typical business day for Miss Loring went something like this. She would come to the office about 7 or 7:30 a.m., catch up on such typing as she had on hand and leave at 10 daily to read to an elderly woman on Con- necticut avenue, who employed her for this purpose. “The girl would return a little after noon to eat the lunch she had brought B —————— WOMAM MOUDME | [ [cuces numteay 1o seve ner_ome| ftoe”soovr sn, “About 1 momtos | WUMAN MUURNS DISTRICT GROCERY STORES FOOD SHO W OPENS TOMORROW NIGHT, 7:30 PRIZES—Ore srand prize and in- a new Ford tor, electric ric. washi - 3% A3 BABY CONTEST—Aee undy years no entrance fee: your baby to the show.

A check was bemz| made of garages and garage men on the rather far-fetched hope that a bloodstained car might have been spotted. The flow of blood from Miss Loring’s temple downward across the fur lapels of her coat indicated to detectives that she had been attacked while in an upright position. Protracted questioning yesterday of the girl’s mother, Mrs. Frances Lor- ign, at her home, developed at least | one lead which officers will run down in the next few days. Investigators refused to discolse its nature. Lieut. Itzel, after his interview with Miss Tavenner, said he was convinced she had no information of use. The girl came voluntarily to tell all she knew after learning that police wished to talk to her at Upper Marlboro. Miss Tavenner Exonerated.
