SEEK GEM EXPERT
IN BIG PEARL THEFT
Police Hold international
Crook Followed Donahue
Jewels Over Atlantic.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. October 2.-Detec-
tives were on the trail today of some
international crook for robbing Mrs.
James p. Donahue. daughter and CO
heiress of the So 100000 estate >of
the late +. w. Woolworth, of two
pearl necklaces and jewelry valued at
$3.50 900.
The theory is that because two
big pearls, which complete each of
the two 53-unit strings. were received
from Paris only Tuesday. thief
traiied the gems across the Atlantic
and seized them at the first oppor
tunity. Mrs. Donahue had worn the
incomplete necklaces at Monte Carlo.
Stolen During Bath.
The gems were stolen from the
Donahue's sixroom suite in the Hotel
Plaza Wednesday afternoon while
Mrs. Donahue was taking bath. The
door had been left unlocked, with the
keys on the outside. A maid noticed
the door ajar later, but thought moth
ing of it. The theft was discovered
three hours later when Mr.. .Donahue
returned from his brokerage office.
Mrs. Donahue failed to find the gems
in drawer where she had placed
them before entering the bath. Po-
lice were'not notified until yesterday.
Collected for 10 Years
Mr.. Donahue said it took them 10
years to accumulate the perfectly
matched roseate strings. The last
two We're purchased in Paris this
Summer.
The thief also took a marquise dia-
mond ring, but scorned four strings
of imitation pearls and some othar
jowelry in the same drawer. Police
said the robber must have been an
expert to distinguish the real pearls
frCm the imitation. The jewelry was
insured for 100000.
Mrs. Donahue was Miss Jessie
Woolworth before her marriage in
ISL. They have two sons. Her
father, the 5-and-1o-cent store mag
nate, died in 1919: her mother III
1921. The estate then passed to Mrs.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-While en-
gagged in the pleasant task of ringing
in the new year it is well to remem-
Der a few Of the more important ath-
letic feats achieved during the year
that will shortly come to a close.
Nationally it was perhaps the great
est year in the history of sports. In
ternationally the standard fell a lit
tie behind previous years. In point
Of interest in sports it is doubtful il
We will ever see its equal again.
In scanning the individual list for
the past IL months five names i'm
mediately jump to my mind. "Red"
Grange, Paavo Nurmi, William Til
den. Rogers Hornsby and Bobby Jones.
These men have established places in
the American athletic hall of fame
that will probably stand unequaled
for some time to come.

DALLAS SCENE
Of HIGH
FINAL
Waco Favored to Beat

Dallas Fair Park Stadium will be
the scene of the championship high
school football game next Friday,
starting at 2 80. This decision was
reached in a meeting of officials from
Waco and Forest Avenue. Dallas, high
schools at Italy, a small town half
way between the two cities on the

"Spitz" Clarke and A. NJ. Venue,
who officiated in the two semi-final
state high school football games
Saturday, were back in San Antonio
Monday with lunches that Waco High
would capture the state title when the
Tigers meet Forest Avenue of Dallas
on New Years Day.
Mr.. Venue, who worked the Forest
Cisco game Saturday, reports that
it was a nip-and-tuck, evenly fought
game, decided only on long forward
pass. Cisco played as if the Loboes
were stale from a long season and
failed to make use Of q weight advan-
tage. Cisco averages around $50
pounds TO the man. Forest, well.
coached, had more pep and the tack
ling wa, harded and cleaner than
Cisco's.
Mr.. Clarke reports that Waco did
not play quite as peppery a game as
it might in beating Robstown, but
the Robstown boys were way below
form, showing lack Of practice. The
tesm remained idle between the time
it was beaten by Beaumont and the
day it was reinstated when Beaumont
was ousted from the league for the in
eligibility of Captain Balliew.
Waco looks like the best bet for
the state title, with Beaumont and
Sherman out, say local critics who
have seen all the leading contenders
