She joked about it to her own boy friend, confided it to her high school classmates and remarked slyly on her sister's figure in front of her unsuspecting parents, Mr. and Mrs, Albert Birmingham. Desperate, unable to face a shame he knew must become known th a few weeks at the most, Kathleen's lover, 19-year-old Milton Babich, begged Patricia to keep the secret until he could manage an elopement ; Today, Patricia is dead, her body dragged from the Milwaukee River where Babich confessed he dropped it, wired to a concrete block—a method he read about in a comic book. Kathleen is on nervous collapse. ant middle-class but wrecked. = » ~ THE BABICH case happened fn Milwaukee. But it could have happened anywhere in the United
