A $45,000 Whistler original, "The Girl With the Pink Hair Ribbons," hung on the wall, and expensive clothing and a diamond-studded wrist watch were scattered among the decaying food. Checks and $10 bills were scattered about the floor. Police said the cause of Mrs. Brock's death had not been determined definitely, but added she apparently succumbed to acute alcoholism. An autopsy was scheduled for today.
