### In Order to Force It to Left Side, Braces Necessary to Protect Stitches
MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga., Aug. 1. Leo M. Frank's head has been placed in metal surgical braces, forcing his head to the left side, that side of his neck being slashed by a convict fifteen days ago. It will be a month, doctors state, before Frank is able to leave the hospital. The braces were necessary to prevent stitches tearing out and to hold the wound together so that it will heal.
