Maze of Questions Unanswered As Wynekoop Case Nears Trial . . . . unw" WHEN -WHERE - WHO -WHY HOW'' WHEN-WHERE TFT WHO-WHY Questions sufficient In number and Interest to make a Rood mystery novel remain unanswered In the celebrated Wynekoop case, which will reach another climax when Dr. Alice Uynekoop goes on trial In Chi cago court soon charged with the murder of her son's wife. Dr. Wynekoop, her son; Earle, who was freed of chargt of being an accessory to the slaying, and the operating room In which the body of the girl was found are shown here. By JOHN W. STAHR CHICAGO. (AP) Into the trial of frail, 62-year-old Dr. Alice Wynekoop for the murder of her daughter-in-law, Rheta Gardner Wynekoop, will be tossed a maze of unanswered questions that makes many story book mysteries seem simple by comparison. This already famous case, slated for trial at an early date, does not follow any Action formula by presenting a long, contrasting list of suspects. "Confession s" Big Bole But in setting, psychological and physiological "angles," intra-famlly Intrigue and contradictions, the "op erating table slaying" assumes most If not all the Ingredients of a Poe brain child. Perhaps Vie biggest pre-trial ques tion of all Is: Will the "confession" which the elderly doctor signed three days after the tragedy be her defense or will ll be the state's biggest weapon? That statement, written in the third person, stating merely that the young woman died of an overdose of chloroform while being treated by Dr. Wynekoop and that "a bullet was discharged'1 after death merely to give the apperance an Intruder had killed Rheta has been termed by disinterested legal minds a "per fect defense document." But the defendant, by turns, has repudiated, confirmed and again re pudiated the 'confession." The de defense may, after all, stand upon Dr. Alice's reputation, her amazing poise, her career as a respected phy sician and her original atatement that an outsider committed the crime. There are a multitude of other questions which may complicate the trial. Among them are these: Why did Earle Wynekoop. 27-year-old personable husband of Rheta. buy 50 cartridges for his mother's .32 calibre pistol found beside the near ly nude body November 11, Just 10 days before the tragedy? And why did Dr. Alice at first deny knowledge of a (5000 Insurance policy on Rheta's life carrying double in demnlty in case of death by violence when f,he herself had paid the first premium on it, also on November 11? More Puzzlers Why did Earle write an affection ate letter to Rheta from Kansas City on November A though when he re turned to Chicago for several days he didn't even telephone the wife he called ,his "mental Inferior?" Why were there two blank cart ridge In the death pistol chamber? Why Did Dr. Alice, when she "dis covered" Rheta's body at 8:30 that Tuesday night, first call her daugh ter. Dr. Catherine Wynekoop, then call an undertaker police not be lng notified until four hours later? .S. LONDON, Jan. 8. (&) Dean Inge said in a new edition of his book. 'England," appearing today that Great Britain need not look to America for aid in the event of attack from "a European coalition." "If in the future we are attacked by a European coalition, we may take it as probable that the United States will leave us to our fate unless, in deed, we are invaded by a black army," he said. "The American gov ernment seriously contemplated tak ing action -against us In the early part of the war. "Whatever sentiment was allowed to enter into their (America's) cal culations was In favor of Prance," he added, "not England." 4 A log cabin built at Glenn Martin, Cal., In the San Bernardlna moun tains by '49-era now houses a gaso line filling station.
