FBI and Police Check
Underworld for Leads
In S428,OOO Robbery
By the Asxociofad Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Haunts
of known fences and other under
world characters were checked to-
day by Federal Bureau of Investi-
cation agents and police investi-
eating the burglary of $428, 900
worth of jewels in the apartment
of former model.
The thieves-with a keen eye
for the very best-spurned the less
valuable gems and synethetic ones
as they went through the apart
of Mrs. Maxine Samson, wife of a
wealthy hosiery manufacturer.
Returning from the movies late
Saturday night. she found score
of jewelry boxes looted in her 14th
floor terrace apartment at Madi-
son avenue and Thirty fifth street.
Gems Were Insured.
The jewelry was insured, Mrs.
Samson told police.
The burglary brought her hus-
band. Stanton D. Samson, up from
his home in Philadelphia. He
and his wife have lived apart by
agreement for the past six
months, his lawyer said.
Saying the burglary looked like
an inside job, Mr.. Samson de-
clared: "They took only the very
large platinum and diamond
pieces, settings from which the
stones could be taken out and
peddled very easily"
Mr.. Samson, 40, is president of
Samson Hosiery, Inc, a PhiladeI-
phia firm with plants in Is States
His wife is a former model.
The burglary was the second
major jewel job in Manhattan in
48 hours. On Thursday night,
robbers forced their way into the
home of Snowman Billy Rose and
his wife, former swimming star
Eleanor Holm, and stole gems,
furs and other valuables esti-
mated by Mr.. Rose at 100000.
The Roses were not at home at
the time. The three robbers tied
up their butler.
Burglar Took Furs.
Unlike the robbers of the Rose
home, the Samson burglars passed
up several mink coats.
Entry of the Samson apartment,
police said, apparently was made
by inserting a celluloid strip into
the door jamb and forcing the
lock open.
AS the Sansons talked with
newsmen and photographers the
wife said to her husband: OAR
ling. they want us to be pleasant
in our hour of grief"
The husband replied: Don't
worry about it. honey. It's only
money"
Mr.. Samson said he and his wife
had planned to go to Miami next
week end. His lawyer, Robert D.
Marcus, told of the Sansons living
apart. Mr.. Samson turned the
apartment over to his wife and
lived at hotel when he was in
New York, the lawyer said.
The $428,000 figure on the
stolen jewels supplied by the law
yer, after preliminary estimates
had run much higher.
The Sansons' main residence, in
Philadelphia, is closed for the
winter. ....
Entry Of the FBI into the in
vestigation was automatic when
1t became known that the loot
exceeded $50, The supposition
is that the case might be inter-
state in character.

Women's S Ski Exploits
Spur Austrian Men al
Colorado Meet TODAY
BY the Assoeicted Press

ASPEN, Colo. Feb. 14.-Au-
stria's go-getting gals were the
big show in the opening day of
the world Alpine ski champion
ships, and Austria's men expect to
cut few fancy capers themselves.
The Austrian women, led by
Dagmar Rom, swept six of the first
seven places In the women's giant
slalom yesterday.
Miss Rom raced down the
tricky, "a mile course in 1926 to
take first place.
The men compete today in the
same event. And 1t would be no
great surprise, even to the Aus
trians, If they again dominated the
standings Of the top 10.
Our women were very good,
even better than we expected" said
Ernest Skardarasy, manager Of the
Austrian team. Our men? Oh,
they are very good. too. . ."
Men Perform Same Way.
This opinion wasn't challenged
by any of the expert observers.
They noted that the Austrian
women were hitting the gates at
more perfect angles and pushing
harder for speed than other COM
petitors. The Austrian men per-
form the same way.
Best of the Austrian males in
the giant slalom are Christian
Pravda, a ski manufacturer; Egon
Schopf, their national champion;
Edi Mall. their champ in 1947,
and Franz Gabl.
= While the spectators were pre-
pared for another great Austrian
team showing, it was doubted that
they could again carry off first
place honors. If they do, the
choice Is Pravda.
Among the So men from 13
nations scheduled to compete to-
day, the popular favorites were
Zeno Colo, 29-year-old Italian
farmer, and Stein Eriksen, %, a
student from Norway.
American Among Favorites.
Others mentioned often in first
place speculation were James
Couttet Of France, Toni Matt of
the United States and Fernand
Grosjean Of Switzerland.
The racers will travel dan
gerous one and one-fourth-mile
course with a 1,600-foot drop. On
the way down they must hit SO
gates, and hit them dead center,
or risk a fall that means curtains
for their ambitions.
The course is the same as that
run yesterday by the women, ex-
cept for half-mile addition at
the very top Of slippery Mount
Aspen. This half-mile strip Is
known as the elevator shaft" be-
