Bin Miss Carmen's story gave a new autnenticity to the tfiory of Mrs. Wallace Eord. wife of the actor and director, who had reported a telephone conversation with Miss Todd Sunday afternoon and made almost certain that Miss Todd had not died soon after leaving the party, but hours later—hours during which her movements and whereabouts could not be explain- , ed by any known facts. Mrs. Ford gave a cocktail party Sunday afternoon for more than 400 guests. She had invited Miss Todd. At 4:10 p. in. she was called to the telephone and A' woman she. identified positively as Miss ; Todd informed her that she would arrive in a few minutes aifit would I bring an uninvited guest whose I identity would "surprise" Mrs. Ford.

Was he the uninvited guest Miss Todd had promised to lake to Mrs. Ford's party? The missing hours gave the mystery a new and sinister character. Detectives could conceive of Miss Todd, without a key to iier home, spending a few hours of the early morning in her garage to avoid inconveniencing friends, but for Iter to have stayed away from

' The coroner's jury recommeuda ’ tions of further investigation wat followed quickly by an announce 1 mein of George Rochester, fore man of the county grand jury that his body would take over the I case immediately. Rochester said, s without explanation, that he had information that certain gambling I interests bad attempted to estab lish resorts near Miss Todd’s case Soon afterwards, district Attorney I Burton Fitts announced that ht felt certain “pertinent information had been withheld from the coro- ’ tier's jury.

The defense has 29 witnesses . subpoenaed for the trial.
