Grad Meets
Untimely Death
Miss Ann Yarrow, a 1953 grad
uate of Guilford College, was
found murdered early Sunday
morning in a New York City
apartment. She was living alone
in the apartment of a friend when
she was attacked late Saturday
night or early Sunday morning
by an unknown assailant. Police
have not been able to determine
why or by whom the crime was
committed. Miss Yarrow, whose
home was in Flushing, N. Y., was
doing graduate work at New York
University.
Miss Yarrow was an English
major here, and completed all
academic requirements in three
