SCOUT FOUND HANGED

   A 12 year old Tottenham school boy, William Noel Schluter, of Walpole road, was found dead hanging in the bathroom at his home.
   He had planned to go with his mother for a day's outing to Chingford, but on the way he wanted to return home.
   When she returned to the house she found the bathroom door locked.
   Her husband forced open the door and found his son suspended by a piece of rope with his feel only a few inches from the floor.
   The boy was a member of a Scout troop.
