Washington, July 8.--Death more ' cast its shadow today over the White House, claiming Calvin Cool- {idge, Jr, the 16 year old son of the president, A courageous struggle of five days that stood off the final claim of acute blood poisoning to the utmost ended last night. The younger son cf the president died at Walter Reid hospi- tal where he had lain in his desper-~ ate fight for life since he was re- moved there last Saturday that every once resource of medical science might be | invoked to save his life. TFought Great Fight Waster in strength by the ravaging spread of the septic poison that re- sulted from an almost unnoticed blister which developed on his foot while playing tennis a week ago, the youth fought a futile battle through- out yesterday. Losing ground steadily, he yet amazed his physicians by the tenacity with which he clung to the slender thread of life and kis forti- tude under the suffering of the com- plications that atiended the spread of the treacherous disease. He col- lapsed early in the night and death | occurred at 10:30 o'clock. Forced in the last doa the'desperate hope they had held for his recovery, based much on the | courage and fighting spirit they knew he had, the President and Mrs. Cool- idged faced the end at their son's bedside, They had Kkept the long vigil there unbroken save for an occasional hurried return to the White House yesterday and Sundey. 8o plainly showing their ordeal of | the mother and father left the hospital at once.

Stearns, a close friend of the family and a White House guest and her husband. The president and Mrs, Coolidge, who were said to have borng up bravely, went at once to their rooms and at midnight the White House was entirely darkencd, John, the elder son, who had been spared the ordeal of the last hours at the bedside of the brother who had been a constant companion, was in his room when his parents returned and remained upstairs. Those who watched the struggle of sorrow, the sixteen-year-old lad against the | which | stwept through his system were agreed | that oni ' a fortitude of will and char- | terrific odds of the discase acter unusual at any age had kept him alive so long. 1t was on Saturday, that the venomous nature of the.infection was definitely disclosed. The trifling abrasion that had resulted from the blister on Monday was so little thought of that he had appeared that night with his father at the public budget meeting of government offi- cials where he saw much to smile and Jest about with his elder brother, Rushed to Hospital By Wednesday. however, the on- slaught of the infection had com- menced, and on Saturday, in a plain army ambulance with his mother at his side, Calvin, Jr., was hastened to Walter Reed hospital on the outside of Washington, for an operation which it was hoped might reduce to a new focus the bacteria which were build- ing in the tissues of his leg. Upper Wing Reserved For the reception of the patient and also to provide temporary quars ers for the president and Mrs. Cool- ldge, that they might remain ¢on- gtantly near him, the entire upper ng of the hospital was cleared.
