“WOMAN 1S KILLED Former Cornell Janitor Slays Office Worker, Commits Suicide. By the Associated Press. ITHACA, N. Y, September 15.— Carrying out what police said was a carefully planned “revenge scheme,” Harry L. Jeffery of Varna, former janitor of the Animal Husbandry » Building, Cornell University, yesterday shot to death Miss Viola Elver, 40, in an office in the building, then shot himself fatally. Only the fact that he was caught in » shower while conducting students on a tour of the campus, saved the life of Dr. F. B. Morrison, animal husbandry nutrition professor and head of the department, police said. Jeffery, according to stenographers in Prof. Morrison’s office, walked in Just before the shooting and asked for ™ the professor. From Morrison’s office, Jeffery went to the statistical office, where Miss Elver was working at an adding machine with her back to the door. “I've got a gun here,” witnesses quoted Jeffery as saying. “Oh, have you?” Miss Elver replied, turning back to her work with a laugh. “And I'm going to give you what you gave me,” the witnesses said Jeffery threatened as he pulled the trigger of a 12-gauge shotgun and shot Miss Elver through the back. The man, Prof. Morrison said, had been employed as janitor at Cornell for six years. His work was unsatis- » factory, Prof. Morrison said, and he was called in for an interview. Dur- ing the talk he resigned of his own accord. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. TODAY. Dinner, Graphic Arts, Raleigh Ho- tel, 6 pm. Meeting, Grant Circle, G. A.
