Snook for the killing. of Theora Hix with the pros- pect that the case would be in the hands of the jury of eleven men and one woman some time tomorrow. Admits Snook Struck Chief Harry French of the Colum- bus police department was on the stand 'much of the morning, denying the testimony given by Dr. Snook as *a the admissions the defendant made Iring the examination that preceded 'his: confession. The chief admitted Snook was struck, but declared that it was Dr. Snook himself who dictated the con- fession that the defendant hdd at- tributed in his testimony to Prose- eutor John J. Chester, Jr., and he eorroborated the confession by saying that Dr. Snook before making it, had «iescribed the cutting of Miss Hix's throat. In his testimony Dr. Snook said he wore he hadno recollection of sever- ing her jugular vein, the actof which the state bases its charge of premedi~ tation, necessary for m first degree murder conviction. Dr. J, M. Dunn, who exainined Dr. Snook last Priday, testified today that he found bruises 07 his body but that he thought they were not more than two or three weeks old. The defense maintains that Dr. Snook struck the first blow with a hammer on Miss Hix's head after she attacked him at m rifle range on the edge of the city where they had gone for their labt if)“. the night of last June 13.
