A former first year graduate student in Economics, who had been confined at a Boston mental health center since last November, returned to commit suicide yesterday afternoon near his former room in Perkins Hall. The victim, John P. Skuba of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., a Rutgers graduate, died of a single shotgun wound in the head, according to Dr. John W. Wells, Jr., the University Health Services physican who pronounced him dead at 5 p.m.
Skuba had been under the care of University psychiatrists and "was thought to be coming along well," Wells said.
