Well Known Youth Falls Into Federal Job Amid Mental Health Tale
In Clarinda Iowa a well known youth, B Bill Jr, is appointed by the Washington DC board of education as substitute teacher of business and physical training in Washington high schools effective November 13 1941. His father J E Hill describes a mysterious illness that began with the youth's disappearance and amnesia and led to treatment at Georgetown and George Washington hospitals before recovery. The elder Hill notes the son regained memory and studies, earning a place as substitute teacher though he does not recall Clarinda or prior acquaintances except a young woman linked to his past.
