in aff'davits given -by those present.
He claims the state wll show the
strongest evidence in attempting to
prove that Miss Rappe was mortally
injured when the movie comedian.;
abused the young woman. Varied ac
counts of the affair declare Arbuckle
was alone with the girl for an hoar
and others that he did not leave the
rest of the party. Arbuckle denies be
ing alone with the girl. ' Some per
sons at the party say Misa Rappe be-'

There is adverse effect everywhere
