"There's something I must tell you. It's worried me. I didn't violate the law ... I never taught that evolution lesson. I skipped it. I was doing something else the day I should have taught it, and I missed the whole lesson about Darwin and never did teach it. Those kids they put on the stand couldn't remember what I taught them three months ago. They were coached by the lawyers." "Honest, I've been scared all through the trial that the kids might remember I missed the lesson. I was afraid they'd get on the stand and say I hadn't taught it and then the whole trial would go blooey. If that happened they would run me out of town on a rail."

When Bill mentioned that would make a great news story, John responded, "My god, no! Not a word of it until the Supreme Court passes my appeal. My lawyers would kill me." In L. Sprague de Camp's book, The Great Monkey Trial, de Camp states that Bill claimed he overheard Clarence Darrow coaching the students on what to say.

After Herb's death in 1986, Lindbergh's flight jacket deteriorated so much that it was mistakenly thrown out, thinking it had no historical value. The Smithsonian Institution's American History Museum always wanted to know what happened to Lindbergh's jacket. It wasn't until 1995 that they discovered its fate.16

Biography
William Kinsey Hutchinson (1896-1958) was an American reporter who became a friend of presidents, legislators, cabinet members, and other U.S. government diplomats and officials. Between 1913 and 1920, William (Bill) was a reporter for a newspaper in Reading, Pennsylvania. In 1920, he moved to Washington, D.C.and started work for William Randolph Hearst's International News Service (INS). As an INS reporter, he covered the Scopes Monkey Trial in Dayton, Tennessee, and on July 24, 1925, he was the first reporter to file the dispatch stating the outcome.

Following Lindbergh's Transatlantic solo flight and return to the United States in 1927, he gave his flight jacket to Bill, who wore it on many occasions and kept it until his death in 1958. Bill, a World War I veteran, received numerous awards from the Air Force, Army, and Navy for patriotic service. He also covered the national political conventions and events at the Capitol. In 1939, he was promoted to Bureau Chief of the International News Service in Washington, D.C. He was a member of the bar in the District of Columbia. For many years Bill was the owner and Vice President of the Washington Redskins football team. Between 1947 and his death, Bill forged a close friendship with Richard Nixon.

In late 1949, during a game of hearts, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover and Bill came up with the idea for a list of names, photographs, and descriptions of the ten worst criminals wanted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). On March 14, 1950, the list was compiled and distributed as the FBI's 10 Most Wanted Fugitives list.

He died the day after the announcement of the merger of the International News Service with the United Press to form United Press International. On May 26, 1958, the funeral was held at Arlington Cemetery with Vice President Richard Nixon, a close friend, serving as a pallbearer. Bill was awarded the lifetime District of Columbia license plate number "53," which, upon his death in 1958, the license plate was willed to John Willard Marriott1,37,38,39,40,5,41,42,43,44,45,46
