Organs of 19-Year-Old Girl Who Died Monday Go to Legal Medicine

Police authorities yesterday took the vital organs of pretty 19-year-old Charlotte V. Merrill, who died mysteriously Monday night in Cambridge, to the School of Legal Medicine. Two graduate students who lived near her in a Cambridge rooming house tried unsuccessfully to save the girl's life, but she died shortly after being admitted to the Cambridge City Hospital.

Daniel Gutterman 1L and Allen H. Kassoff 1G found Miss Merrill, a student at the Massachusetts School of Art, lying in her bed "very hysterical and saying something about pills." They broke down her door after hearing the girl's screams.

Medical Examiner Leo T. Myles, who is performing an autopsy on the body, said police found two empty bottles of sleeping pills in the room. The bottles contained 36 pills. Kassoff said last night the girl "didn't seem unhappy at any time before her death."
