ab Checks Knife

By ERNEST II. ROBL
DTH News Editor
Chapel Hill Police were
waiting Monday for a labora
tory analysis of stains on a
cheap butcher knife found by
a student, hoping they would
provide a new lead in the
still unsolved fatal shabbing
of a 21-year-old coed one year
ago.
On July 30, 1965, Suellen
Evans who had been attend
ing the second summer ses
sion at the University was
walking through the Coker
Arboretum. About half way
through the botanical garden,
someone plunged a "sharp
bladed instrument" into her
heart.
Neither the killer nor the
murder weapon were found
in an intense search that fol
lowed the daylight stabbing.
Outlook Bleak
Until last week police had
all but given up hope of ever
solving the murder. It was
then that a student home for
the summer found a knife
under the spare tire of his
car.
The knife, about half of its
10-inch blade appearing to be
stained with blood, turned up
in Bethesda, Md., and was
immediately forwarded to
Chapel Hill.
The student, whom police
declined to identify, said that
his car had been parked near
the Lambda Chi Alpha fra
ternity house on Franklin
Street on the day of the mur
der one year ago.
He said that he had not had
occasion to take out the spare
tire since that time.
The State Bureau of Inves
tigation Crime Lab in Raleigh
began examining the knife
Monday morning, attempting
to determine if the stains on
the knife were human blood
and if this blood matched the
type of the murdered coed.
Hair on v Knife
According to Chapel Hill
Police Chief W. D. Blake, the
knife also had some hair ad
hering to it, which the lab
will attempt to match with
the coed's.
Should both tests give posi
tive results, the SBI will at
tempt to get fingerprints from
the suspected weapon. Blake
said that "under ideal condi

could be detected even after
a period of more than one
year.
The discovery of the sus
pected knife is only the latest
that town police and SBI ag
ents have investigated.
, Blake said that police have
been working on the assump
tion that the motive for the
murder was rape.
The attack took place about
12:30 p.m. on a hot. clear
day. Before an ambulance
could arrive at the scene.

died.

were the only words she could
mutter before collapsing in
the arms of two coeds and
two nuns who had rushed to
the scene in response to
'screams.
No Witnesses
There had been no witness
est to the stabbing, though one
of tho?e arriving on the scene
seconds later reported seeing
"a dark arm" disappear be
hind some bushes.
"She put up quite a fight
and probably pulled some of
the hair we found out of the
attacker's head," Blake re
ported. Lab reports indicated
that the hair found at the
scene was Negroid.
The arboretum path which
had been raked only an hour
before showed signs of a
fierce struggle and gave po
lice the impression of one
large and distinct footprint.
A foot-by-foot search of the
arboretum by about 200 stu
dent volunteers working un
der the suprevision of police
failed to yield any trace of
the murder weapon or other
clues.
Chapel Hill police continued
to work on the case, ques
tioning suspects, tracing leads,
but always running into dead
ends. -
100 Questioned
Some 100 persons were ques
tioned in connection with the
case, and Chapel Hill Police
have put more than 900 hours
of overtime into the case.
Blake says the case "will
not be closed until it's solved."
If tests eliminate the knife,
the police will continue look
ing for other leads.

"In the academic world you here and what they are going

He told them their "first
responsibility is to meet the
academic demands of the Un
iversity and then to live up
to the expectations of their
parents."
Sitterson pointed out that
last year's freshman class
had only five per cent that
were academically ineligible
to return at the end of the
year compared with 14 per
cent that were not eligible in
the class that entered in 1962.
"I challenge you to surpass
the academic record set last
year by the freshman class
by reducing the percentage of
ineligible students to less than
the present low of five per
cent," Sitterson said.

The secondary school record
of the new freshmen is also

es and 90 per cent from the

No freshmen were admitted
this year with a predicted
grade average of below 1.6
The average is determined
through a compiling of the high

The 15 per cent of the fresh

Bernard said, "Our Depart

accepted 3,825 students to fill
the 2,300 vacanices in the fresh
