Mother Is Mistaken For Burglar, Shot Critically Wounded By Student Son CHICAGO (UP) — A young college student shot and critically wounded his mother today in what police said was the “tragically mistaken” belief she was a burglar. Mrs. Margaret T. Klorig, 56. was described in critical condition at St. Anne’s* hospital with a .22 caliber bullet wound in her chest. Her son, William, 20. and Illinois Institute of Technology junior, said he fired at his, mother when she went to a rear porch to close a window during an early morning thunderstorm. The Klorig home had been the target of several burglary attempts recently. The youth, an excellent shot, fired at the nearly indistinguishable form of his mother silhouetted in the darkness against the window, William’s sister, Maureen, 16, was standing nearby and witnessed the shooting. Police said a bolt of thunder aroused Mrs. Klorig and she wen> to an enclosed rear porch where William was sleeping. The youth had a pistol under his bed. When he heard the noise at the window, he thought a burglar had entered. He silently reached for the gun and fired. Authorities said no charges will be filed against the boy, who was •allowed to return home after police questioning. William was a member of the naval ROTC and guns were his hobby. 15 Million In Hopeh Facing Starvation TOKYO (IP) — Fifteen million persons in famine-stricken Hopeh Province are facing starvation, RaAo Peiping reported today.
