Dr. Robert Cohen, who had been in Oxford University, England, three years as a non-collegiate student, was found dead on Friday as a result of a fall from the window of his room. The fact that a dressing table, which interfered with egress from the window, had been moved to one side was taken by authorities as evidence of suicide. There was no note to explain such an action.
Dr. Cohen was specializing in diseases of the eye, nose and throat. His mother is a resident of San Francisco.
