AFTER FIVE DAYS
LOST JNTH1CKET
Conner Tot Shows No Alarm
ing Symptoms Asserts
Hospital Report Kidnap
ing Theory Is Discarded
EABTVTEW, N. T.. July IB. (ff)
A bulletin Issued by physicians at
Graaslanda hospital today said that
Baby Bobby Connor appeared to be
stronger this morning.
"Child's temperatur 00, pula 130,
respiration 38," the bulletin read.
"Child appears to be stronger this
morning. Is quit restless. No alarm
ing symptoms. Is receiving feedings
of milk."
Ktdnap Theory Falls.
The kidnaping theory In th ease
collapsed today.
While the little curly-haired son of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Connor lay seri
ously 111 in a hospital, to which he
was taken after being found yesterday
In a bramble thicket near his home,
federal agents and police announced
their Investigations were ended.
They were convinced, they said, that
the 31-months-old Bobby, who dis
appeared last Thursday, wasn't kid
naped at all. All evidence showed,
they declared, that he had toddled
alone Into the wood ana had spent
the lve days there.
At the hospital it was determined
that Bobby had eaten quantities of
grass.
Dr. Claude W. Munger said Sunday
night's showers probably saved the
baby from dying of thirst. Enouah
rainwater would have entered tho
pores of the skin to prevent com
plete dehydration, he aatd.
The physician pointed out further,
in support of his theory, that Bobby
had lam in the woods sine Thurs
day, that the child's pink suit had
been bleached almost white.
Dr. Munger said a blood transfu
sion would be given the child today.
Bobby gained a pound and 13
ounces last night after being given
a quart of glucose and water. He
waa being fed by Injections. Physi
cians said an attempt to feed the
child normally might lessen his
chances to live.
At four-hour intervals he was given
a spoonful of whisky and water.
