Willard Gives Talk
On Crime Analysis
"Murder Under the Micro
scope" was the topic of a
speech by Dr. Mary Willard of
the department of chemistry
at the initial meeting of the
English Club Thursday night.
Dr. Willard discussed her ex
periences while working with
various criminal investigations as
chemical analyst of the evidence
in some of the most notorious
!crimes in the area.
Most of her talk was illustrated
by slides and was based on her
I work in the John Wesley Roberts
murder case in 1954.
The case concerned Mr. and
Mrs. Roberts who were found
shot in their car on the side of
a highway. Mrs. Roberts had
been killed, but her husband
was still alive.
Dr. Willard showed how an
analysis of material on Roberts'

himself in order to make the mur

! hikers.
Also instrumental in proving
Roberts' guilt was Dr. Willard's
test run on the blood types of
'the couple.,
The role of photography in

discussed in the talk. Dr. Will

can be distorted, especially in
traffic accident cases, by the
position of

taking the picture.
