"Lofs of Clues’ Found In Dr. Allyn’s Killing, Prosecutor Says Attorney Denies Pure Foods Expert Was Doing Some Work for F. B. I. By the Associated Press, WESTFIELD, Mass, May 9— District Attorney Thomas F. Mori- arty, tersely breaking the silence which has enveloped a many-sided night-and-day investigation, assert- ed today that police have “lots of clues” to the slaying of Prof. Lewis B. Allyn, 66, famed pure foods ex- pert. He declined to reveal the nature of the clues, but did declare that he had been informed by both J. Edgar Hoover and Attorney General Jackson that Dr. Allyn never had done any work for the Federal Bu- reau of Investigation. Mr. Moriarty previously had dis- counted unofficial reports that Dr. Allyn was doing research work for the F. B. I, and that that work might be linked to his slaying. Ballistics experts, chemists, path- ologists- and detectives were unable yesterday to reach any definite con- clusions as to the identity of the person who called Dr. Allyn to his front door Tuesday night and then poured four bullets into the gray- haired scientist’s body. Still sought also was the .22-cali- ber automatic pistol used by the mysterious assailant. One of the bullets from this weapon entered Dr. Allyn’s heart and Mr. Moriarty said the autopsy, while definitely elimin- ating the possibility of suicide, indi- cated the shots had been fired at close range. There was no evidence of a struggle. Although some circumstances were strangely similar to those in the unsolved murder six years ago of Dr. Elliott Speer, headmaster of the Mount Hermon School for Boys in Northfield, 40 miles away, there was no direct evidence to indicate that there was any connection. Dr. Speer was reading in his library when a shotgun blast through a window snuffed out his life. Dr. Allyn also was in his library reading a book—“The Gun,” by C. A. For- rester—when his slayer called him to the door. Mrs. Allyn informed investigators that she heard indistinct voices and then the shots. When she reached her husband’s side, he gasped: "Calli the police, call the police.” He| died a few moments later. Dr. Allyn, who once aided a Rus- sian mission in perfecting a concen- trated food ration, was the author of many articles and books on pure foods and formerly was a member of the faculty at Westfield State Teach- ers’ College.
