CARYL’S PLUNGE IN GAY BOHEMIA HAS SAD ENDING Parents Finish Co-ed f s Startling Escapade and Return Her to Peoria. CHICAGO, April Sylvia Pattlson's two weeks of Bohemian adventure came to an end today, when she arrived back in Peoria with her parents. The story of what happened during that two weeks and the motive that led her to disappear from the University of Illinois where she was a freshman are still for the most part a mystery. Miss Pattison was found In Waukegan, 111., yesterday. She had fled from a hospital In Evanston where she had been taken after being picked up unconscious on a North Shore highway. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Pattison, came to Waukegan after her. In the minds of her parents Caryl’s just reward should be a spanking. “She has a flapper mind," said Mrs. Pattison. “Give her S3O and ask her to. be careful of it and she will spend it all for any old thing in no time. She’s Just irresponsible.” The meeting between Caryl and her parents was not characterized by any warmth of affection. “Gee, I hate to go home," Caryl said. “Everybody will talk. And we live In a hotel and I don’t like that. Then my mother doesn't understand me. And my father—you know what he did? Went to Florida and didn't leave me a dime. Can you beat It?” “I'm a wild woman, 1 guess," Caryl giggled. “It’s a gay life If you don't weaken.” That gambling was responsible for the financial difficulties which are said to have caused most of Miss Paulson's troubles at the university was the statement of Mrs. Lena Garfield, at whose borne tbe girl worked as a domestic for a few days. “She told me she had been a student at the university, but had been forced to quit for lack of funds," Mrs. Garfield said. “She snld she had lost money shooting dice and playing poker.” University authorities denied that there was any gambling among etudents of the Institution.
