Artist Leo Katz points the "Youth Arisen" panel of his mural at the Frank Wiggins Trade School, Los Angeles, 1935

Description:
Leo Katz points to a section of the central, "Youth Arisen," panel of his mural of three panels. In this panel a central youth, with his eyes closed, is shown between creative uses of technology (like the movie camera seen in this photograph) and destructive uses as in war. The overall theme of the murals shown in the other two panels is the history of the uses of tools serving the creative and destructive passions of man within the context of the Toltec and Aztec cultures.

Description:
Attorney Jerry Giesler, at the trial in which his client Dr. Dazey is accused of murdering his second wife, actress Doris S. Dazey, in 1935. Doris Dazey's death was originally believed to be suicide by monoxide poisoning. However, witnesses claimed that Dr. Dazey had been boasting about committing the "perfect crime" and a night watchman testified to witnessing Dazey carry a woman's body from the house to the garage on the night of the murder. Other factors complicating the trial were the paternity of Doris and George Dazey's child, Doris Dazey's possible mental illness, and false testimonies from some of the witnesses. Dr. Dazey was ultimately acquitted of the crime.
