High School Senior Shot Self After Drug Crisis
George E. P. Retn, 18, a high school senior, lay near death from a self-inflicted bullet wound. Physicians said he would likely die as he admitted an unconquerable drug habit had driven him to plan suicide. His father reported the youth bought drugs from a street peddler near the school. Roth, another witness, described departures from home and a failed search for the drug peddler.
