Clyde K. M. Kluckhohn, professor of Anthropology, and Florence R. Kluckhohn, lecturer on Sociology, have left their University tasks to go to the aid of their son Richard, who is charged with killing a woman in Raleigh, N.C.
Police believe that Kluckhohn, from a hotel window, fired a shot which killed a woman in a nearby parking lot.
