State College Girl Attempts Suicide in Chicago. - _ Miss Helen B. Owens, daughter of Dean and Mrs. Frederick W. Owens, of State College, and student at the University of Chicago medical school, is battling for her life at the Albert Billings memorial hospital, in Chica- go, following an attempt at suicide on Tuesday night of last week. Over- study and alleged worries over a love affair are given as the reasons for the young woman’s rash attempt to take her life. She was found writhing in pain in her room in one of the dormitories of the Chicago institution, late on Tues- day night of last week, by students who heard groans emanating from her room. She was rushed to the hospital where powerful antidotes were administered and six blood transfusions were given her within twenty-four hours. Her parents were promptly notified and went to Chica- go without delay. Miss Owens graduated at Cornell in 1926 with the degree of A. B., go- ing from there to Chicago to enter the medical school at the University. She is only 23 years old and is said to be the youngest student ever en- rolled in the course. One of her reasons for going to Chicago, it is al- leged, was to be near John Mayer, of Pittsburgh, whom she met at Cornell and with whom she is said to be in love. It is said they are engaged and Miss Owens had asked her parents for consent to their marriage but they had counseled waiting until she had obtained her medical degree. Mayer is employed at Gary, Ind. ————p i —————— —A new suit will make you feel like a new man. Get yourself a new suit at Sim’s for Memorial day.
