HAD WORLD FAME Dies Instantlv When Car Runs off Road East of City. Death yesterday cut off in its prime the career of Dr. R. Bishop Canfield, professor of otolaryn-I gology in the medical school, stu - dent and teacher in the University for 34 years, and one of the world's leading eye, ear, nose, and throat surgeons. Shocked by Dr. Canfeld's in- ,tantaneous death when his auto left the highway and was demol ished early yesterday morning on the Washtenaw avenue road two miles east of Ann Arbor, his col- leagues were fulsome in their praise of hint Plans for the funeral will be made today. Mrs. Canfield arrived here at midnight from New York, where she had seen o. to Europe her daughter Barbara, '35, Dr. A. C. Furstenberg, professor of otolaryn- gology, and Mrs. Furstenberg. Mrs. Arthur Canfield, her sister-in-law, accompanied her to Ann Arbor. The accident occurred, according to the evidence brought out in the inquest yesterday afternoon, when Dr. Canfleld, driving a large coupe a..oiUi 80 nil es an hour, lost con- trol of hi car when attempting to pass a ti'>ck. Car Thrown off Road. The car was thrown off the edge of the road, travefing about eight feet in the air and turning around before hitting a tree. The force of the impact broke the automobile in half, and Dr. Canfield was dead when removed from the wreckage a few minutes later by Donald MacFarlane, '32L, and two Ypsi- lanti men who came along inn a car just after the crash. The truck driver, Fred Clark, said at the inquest that he stopped and saw Dr. Canfield, decided he was dead, and drove on when a car stopped. He went throug Ann Ar- bor without notifying police. Clark made no report of the ac- cdent until getting to Chelsea, where he told his employer about it, and did not speak to any of- ficial until he arrived in Jackson and notifled the sheriff there, he told the coroner's jury. Estimates Car's Speed. The proprietor of a gas station at the intersection of the Washte- naw road and US-23 said that shortly after one o'clock a car he believed was Dr. Canfield's, a truck and a bus, passed his place. The bus driver saidl he heard no crash. The estimate of the car's speed carne from Eugene Thomip- son,the filling station operator. Chosen on the coroner's jury, which reserved its decision until to- day, were prominent medical men fro mthe University faculty and St. Joseph's Mercy hosptal. The six jurors are Dr. Frederick Novy and Dr. Udo J. Wile, members of the medical school executive committee, and Dr. T. D. Loree, Dr. S. C. How- ard, Dr. Mark Mrshall, and Dr. George F. Muiehlig of the hospital Was 57 Years Old. Dr. Canfield, who was born in Lake Forest, Ill., was 57 on July 22 of last year. He entered the Uni- versity in 1893, received his bache- lor's degree in 1897, and was made a doctor of medicine in 1899. He studied at the University of Fried- nich Wilhelm in Berlin after his' graduation and was chief of clinic of Jansensche Klinik und Poliklinik in that city in 1903. He returned to the University in 1904 as clinical professor of diseases of the ear, nose, and throat.

Fu Irilton Intent on liaintailin its posi- tion at the head of the Western Conference baseball race, Michi- gan's diamond clan will swing into action against Ohio State at 4:05 o'clock this afternoon, in the first of two games with the Buckeyes. The Scarlet and Gray nine will meet the Wolverines in another clash on Feiry Field Saturday. It will be up to Harley McNeal to keep the Maize and Blie nine battling for the Big Ten ieadiership in this afternoon's game. MeNeal has already recorded Conferenice victories over Illinois and Chicago, two of the most powerful teams i the hig Ten. His pitching in the Conference games has been almost sensational, and with any kind of support this afternoon he should be able to'tame the Bucks. While the Wolverines have not been hitting as well as they :should, they have made their hits count for runs in the only two Confer- ence clashes in which they have taken part. Last Saturday they reached "Lefty" Roy enshaw of Chicago for a trio of runs in the first inning, and although they did- n't do as well after that, the three markers were plenty to win behind McNeal. Speaking of elenshaw calls to mind the fact that he holds a triumph over the Ohio State team , secured early in the year when he struck out 14 men to beat them, Change Batting Order. - In an effort to get as much bat- ting power as possible in the top part of the Wolverine batting or- der, Coach Ray Fisher has made another of his numerous shifts in the batting order.

To the accompaniment of one of the country's leading orchestras, several hundred couples will dance their way around the ballroom of the Union tonight, garbed in gayly colored costumes of various designs. The occasion is the annual Ar- chitect's Ball, perhaps the most pic- (uresque of the campus dances. And the music will be that of "Slatz" Randall and his recording orchestra, which comes here after an extended m4ngagement in Milwaukee. The hours are from 9 to 2. At 11:30 Floyd R. Johnson, '32A, of Balboa Heights, C. Z., and Miss Evelyn Miller, of Grand Rapids, will lead a colorful grand march, followed by committee members and their guests. The architects have left nothing undone that would mean enlivened enterthinment. During a lull in the dancing a group of freshmen ar- chitects will put on a skit. Even an additional floor show is on the program. In, addtion, an open house and tea will be held this afternoon in the College of Architecture. Still another feature-at the dance- will be a balloon dance with all the display of streamers, confetti, and the like. Finishing touches on the decora- tive scheme will be completed this morning. The dance, called the "Bal Exotique," is expected to be one of the most colorful in years. Prizes are to be awarded those wearing costumes that are adjudged the best among those attending. At the tea and open house, the George W. Booth traveling scholar- ship competition drawings will be on exhibition as well as others in design. Tea will be from 3:30 to 5:30 in the architectural library. It will be poured by Mrs. Alexander Grant Ruthven, Mrs. Emil Lorch, Mrs. Junius E. Beal, Mrs. Jean He- brard, Mrs. George McConkey, and Mrs. Wells I. Bennett.

AGRE ON PROCRAM H oover, Senate Reach Informal . Understanding; Plan Termed Biggest in U.S. History. WASHINGTON, May 12.-(/P)-A titanic conpromise Federal relief program was tentatively agreed upon today by President Hoover, Congressional leaders of both par- ties and the Government financial experts. It involved doubling the borrow- ing power of the Reconstruction Finance Corp, to a total of $3,000,- 000,000 with the additional $1,500,- 000,000 to be used for loans to the states for unemployment relief and to promote public and private con- strruction. The two billion dollar bond issue advocated by Senator Robinson, of Arkansas, the Democratic leader, (ByT 'hei sssaalel Press) f R)PFWlI7L - -N.J., May 2--The kidnapped Lindbergh baby, idenuiied by l ageients of his garnments, was found dead today. A scant five iuiles from the Sourland Mountain estate of Col. Chas. A. Lindbergh and within seventy-five feet of emergency telephone lines employed in an unlparalleled search the body was discovered in a wooded area, partly concealed by leaves and dirt. ihe discovery was made by the occupants of a transfer truck on a country cross-roads just 72 days after the world's most cele- orated inf.t was spirited away from his home. 1"he skull bore a hole the size of a twenty-five cent piece above tie forehead. The oficial autopsy by Doctor Charles A. Mitchell, county physician, disclosed the child was killed by two tremendous blows on the head. The autopsy showed that the skull had been fractured on the left side, the fracture extending from the top to just behind the left ear. 'I1he second blow was dealt on the right side of the head just back of the right ear, and left a hole one-half inch in diameter. It was as if some adult person had held the baby tightly in his arms and deliberately hammered the head with the purpose 4f causing instant death. lle diagnosis was: "The cause of death is a fractured skull due to external vio- lence." An attempt had been made to bury the body. A coroner said death was d(ie to a compound fracture of the skull. The hair of the dead child tallied with the shade of the blond, ctrly-haired Lindbergh heir, 20 months old when he was stolen. An undershirt and flannel band formed a more positive link. Similar articles of clothing from the Lindbergh Baby's wardrobe were brought to the spot from the home. They matched closely enough to convince the authorities they had found the body of the famous baby for whom hundreds of thous. ands of policemen in every part of the globe had searched. Then as police worked feverishly to be sure of their identifica- tion, telephones rang in the state house at Trenton, N.J. Reporters . were summoned to the Lindbergh estate for' an important announcement. The telephone rang again. It was Col. I. Norman Schwarzkopf, state police head, who has been the field-marshal of the official investigation, calling his superior, Gov. A. Harry Moore. "Cot Schwarzkopf tells me tle Lindbergh baby has been found dead," the governor informed the Associated Press correspondent. Three hours before (about 3:15 p.m.) a truck bearing four men had stopped on a steep grade between Hopewell and the hamlet of Mount Dose. The vehicle halted opposite a wood separated from the road by a small ditch. William Allen, a Negro, went into the woods and saw the body. "The body was pretty well co:cealed by leaves, dirt and brush" the subsequent formal statement by Schwarzkopf explained. Going under the bush he (Allen) lowered his head and as he raised a branch he saw a skeleton on the ground. "It was in a bad state of decomposition," was the way Schwarz- kopf summarized the gruesome details of the condition of the child. Physicians later theorized the compound fracture was caused either by a terriffic blow on the head with a blunt instrument or from the effects of being hurled from a ca. The best medical estimate was that the body had been exposed to weather for "about two months." However, physicians explained the child might well have been aban- doned on the same night he was silen from his home. Col. Lindbergh, who had macy an exhaustive private and sepa- rate search for his stolen son, spending thousands of dollars and even paying a $50,000 ransom to the supposed kidnappers, was absent. as the formal statement of the finding of the body came from police headquarters at his hilltop home. Ile was notified tonight and started at once for home. State troopers said he was not: on the estate. Latest reports were that he had been in Virginia for more than two weeks attempt- ing to establish contact with men posing as the kidnappers. Mrs. Anne Lindbergh, daughe of the late Senator Dwight W. Morrow, who expects the arrival of another child within several months, also was not seen. She and her mother, Mrs. Morrow, were known to have been in the house, however. Schwarzkopf, a grave look on his face, told the arrivals to be seated around the long table in the garage and then discussed ini detail how the statement was to be made public. lie directed that no one leave before he had concluded. And when he had finished, he waived aside all questions and directed all outsiders to depart at once. Among the information to be withheld was any detail concern- ing the whereabouts and health of the Lindbergh family. A statement from Col. Schwarzkopf was as follows: "As long as there was a possibility of the baby being alive, the police have been acting with a certain amount of suppressed activity in order not to interfere with any negotiations that might result in the safe return of the baby. "Now that the body of the baby has been found every possible effort will be used and all men necessary will immediately exercise every possible effort to accomplish the arrest of the kidnannerg anA Ohio Seeks Right Combination. who ntemdts to make it a state-wide Coach Wayne Wright of the Scar- organization with membership open let and Gray nine has had almost to all pe'sons with interest or abil- as much trouble as Fisher in alter- ity in lthe interpretive arts, ing, the Buckeye batting order an I'The finalists are Evelyn L.
