Chicago, March 28.—The midnight visit of a well dressed woman to a sidewalk crypt resulted in the dis- covery early today of the body of an unidentified man who had been dead about two months. In his hand he held a rosary. While Walter Jonas, a night watch- man at a factory on the northwest side of the city was making his rounds at midnight, he saw a woman ap- proach the sidewalk that adjoins a vacant lot and which js elevated about ten feet above the lot. The woman stooped, scraped away a quantity of cinders and stones from the embank- ment and crawled under the sidewalk. When she disappeated, Jonas sought a policeman and returned to the hole. The policeman found the man’s body. The woman had de- parted. The police are searching for her. The head of the body rested upon a parcel of men’s apparel wrapped in the paper of a fashionable store on Michigan avenue. Doctor -Edward Hartigan said he had been dead about two months and was 35 years of age. The police expressed belief that he had been murdered but Dr. Hartigan said the marks found on his skull might have been caused by contact with cinders. HARVARD FOOTBALL. Head Coach Fisher Looks Over Squad at Beginning of Spring Practice. Cambridge, Mass., March 28.—Head Coach Robert T. Fisher surveyed the prospects for the Harvard football eleven of next fall when spring prac- tice for the gridiron squad began to- day. He found a likely backfield in the making, but a line full of holes. Of the 50 men who reported their in- tention of taking the three weeks’ drill, most were candidates for line positions and Fisher said he would devote much of his time to them. The Crimson spring season this year is starting later and will be shorter than in recent years making it possible for Captain Keith Kane of the eleven to report for crew ac- tivities and a possible place in the varsity boat where he rowed last year.
