S.F. Law Student Commits
Suicide
(United Press Leased Wire)
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 28 - A San Francisco law school student joined his young but faithless wife in death through suicide late yesterday.
Leaving behind a note which had explained life had lost its meaning since his wife killed herself, 24-year old Ralph Riddle sent a fatal bullet through his brain in a room he shared with Richard McNulty, fellow student at Hastings Law College here.
His death was a tragic climax to the collapse of a college romance and to Marjorie Margaret Riddle's flight from her husband that ended in an Ontario Calif., hotel room, where she had registerd with another man as the latter's wife. An hour after she registered she shot and killed herself.
Riddle had brooded over her suicide in the two weeks that followed. Today he told McNulty he was staying home from classes.
