J :. , ' The hearing came thus near to Its end because Benjamin Bach rach of counsel for the defense used only a '. part of the morning Bession In the last plea for the student defendants, lie picked up a few stray threads of the defense case and wove them into the de sign of its fabric. " Argues From Law J Mr. Crowe based his argument, he emphasized, not on the philo sophies of the sages, not upon the "prattle and piffle of paid alien ists concerning childish phantas ies and dreams of supermen," but "upon the laws of Illinois," ' "And the law says," he shouted with a stirring gesture, "that In cases of extreme , violence ? tne penalty shall be fixed at death." - The state's attorney snapped his oratorical fingers at the men tal sickness theory of the defense, ' based, he said, upon "hairline de cisions of high paid alienists," whom be was pleased to call "the three wise men from the east." He made light of "all this twad dle about childish compacts and youthful .phantasies and dream lands of Teddy bears and detec tives careers" and called the pro ceedings "back from laboratories, psychopathic , hospitals and com munist mass meetings to the crim inal court of Cook county." Disagreement Precipitated . His argument once took ; him into realms of controverted points and precipitated as a climax to the day's proceedings a disagree ... ment between counsel which brought Into the open record a portion of the coroner's physi cian's testimony on his post mor tem examination of the body of Bobby Franks after it was found in a, water filled railroad culvert. The defense maintained that Mr. Crowe had drawn an unfair infer ence as to : the condition of the body In relation to the crime, an inference which they said was not borne out by the coroner's report To settle the controversy Judge Caverly sent for the report and announced a five minute recess to give women an opportunity to leave. He assured them that court would adjourn immediately after the reading but about half ot those in the audience elected to remain. Then the judge or dered them out. . Orders Women Out "I want you to leave at once," he said. "Why persist in hearing this rotJ There was a scurry for the doors and when the hubbub had subsided only a third of the seats In the room were occupied and .1 . rl muse oj men. , The report was read and the defense attorneys again asserted it proved their point, ;i "My contention is that the, wa ter in the culvert washed away the evidence," said Mr. Crowe. "Well, we have the report now , and yott will hot want to go be yond that,": said Judge Caverly as he adjourned court. " The early adjournment prevent ed Mr. Crowe getting as far along in his argument as he anticipated 1 He probably will continue through the entire day tomorrow. .
