Little Girl Disappeared II Years Ago,
 Returns At Christmas, Again Vanishes

When she left the first time she was gangly Legged child, although mature for her age and interested in jewelry, pretty clothes and trips to the hair dressers, all of which her parents could not afford.
 When she returned this week she was an attractive woman, wearing aGl expensive fur coat and smartly tailored dress.
 The parents were reluctant to tell of her return. They long ago had all but given her up for dead. But Chief of Police Harry A. Jenkins is keenly interested in her whereabouts. She had been listed on the police books as missing and the department never has ceased to hunt for her. Jenkins made the incident public as soon as Ncuman told him Of t last night.
 Jenkins always had believed the girl went to New York and he had made several trips ever khoFe leolk- ing fsF hNR. Ee alse ha1 followed other clues, mostly provided hy the father who. he said. ''used to visit my office every week og two" Enc

latest futile "clue" cropped up six months ago when two girls named Dorothy Neuman were killed the same day, one in Arizona, one in San Francisco.
 Mrs. Neuman was home alone when the daughter returned Wed- nesday. She recognized her at once and they embraced. Then Mrs. Neu- man summoned her husband, who was nearby, and their three other children--two sons and @ daughter, all older than Dorothy, and all of them married and living in Union City. There was family reunion.
 We were all too excited on seeing her to ask what she had been do- Ing" Chief Jenkins quoted the fath- CT. who ordered newspaper reporters to stay away from his home. Jen- kins said the girl apparently was reluctant to talk about horseIf and the family he'd not pressed her for information.

BOSTON COLLEGE
 IN HARD PRACTICE
Rain Has Held Team Up for Few Days-Stiff Drill
 Today

Bay St. Louis, Miss, December 27. = (UP) = The Boston College football team began hard day of practice today to make up for out doors drill time lost because of rains the last two days.
 Coach Frank Leahy took the full squad out to run plays this morn ing, and considered letting end Gene Goodreault participate for the first time since his knee was injured ill the Georgetown game. Goodreault has been running plays by himself, his knee still in a brace, to obvi- ate any further injury to the knee.
 In the afternoon practice, the first and second teams will take the offensive against the third and that part of the fourth team which made the trip for the sugar bowl game in New Orleans on January 1. The defenders will use the plays of University of Tennessee, Bos- tons New Years opponent.
 Right tackle John Yauckoes was suffering from a swollen tooth and a slight cold. All other members of the squad were in fine condition.

Union City. N. J., Dec. 27-(UP)- When Dorothy Neuman was 12 years old her mother sent her to the drug store for some medicine. That was on Aug. 29, 1929.
 At 8 D. m. last Wednesday, Christ mas, il 1-3 years later. she return ed home. She bid her family Merry Christmas, stayed for dinner and at il p. m. left again.
 That is about as much as anyone here can make of 1t.
 She told the family that she had been living across the Hudson River in New York City all the time. She didn't tell them her address or ,5a'hat she had been doing. She didn't ex- plain how she found the family. which had moved four times since she left and was not listed in the telephone directory. She didn't bring any Christmas presents. She just walked in and said "hello." She promised before ahe left to return Jan. a0 on her 1e1h h1Ffhday, 4hen "the earth swallowed her up again. |" as her father, Francis ]. Neuman, expressed lt.

CITY GIVEN SUM
 OF $l,l5O,OOO
Check to That Amount Is Received as Loan From
 Boston Bank

The sum of 1,150,00O-whose use the city will have for more than five months at total cost of only $6O7 was received today by Controller Thomas M. Conlon from the First National Bank of Boston.
 The money represents a loan se- cured by the city in anticipation of taxes payable in 1941. The interest rate is .12 per cent, less than one- eighth of one per cent, and is the lowest in the city's history. The Bos- ton bank was the lowest of nine bid- ders who submitted figures to the controller.
 Expenses of running the city gov- ernment and making payments on bond principal and interest will be met by using the borrowed money. It will be paid back with funds re- ceived through the first installment of next years taxes, which become due and payable May 1.
 The loan runs from Dec. 27 to June 5, a period of 160 days. It is expected that funds to pay it will be available several weeks before the due date.
 The interest rate of .12 per cent compares with the pervious low rate of IFS of one per cent, which the city paid last May on a loan of $1,- 250,O00 secured in December, 1899.
 With 194o surplus of over $S5O,- 900, the city would probably be able to get along for several months of next year without borrowing except for the necessary of paying out over $500, 900 in bonds in January.
