z FIim-FIom Jobs Add
$l,700 to Growing oil

A recent surge Of fiim-flam
crimes-including two yester.
day totaling $1,700 - ha
aroused concern among rob-
berry squad detectives.
The flim-flam, known also as
the confidence game, involves
q very special criminal - or,
usually, criminals - who can
somehow persuade q victim to
part with money briefly fol
safekeeping. IN the hope OF
receiving an even larger sum
in return.
Detective Sergt. Miller A
Dixon, who specializes in finn
fam. said he has no idea why
so many jobs have been pulled
recently. He said that in the
last two months there have
been 10 jobs and the net take
was about $1,000.
Yesterday, a laborer fell VIC
tim to a two-man team, at
Eighth and H strets NE. One
Of the men, speaking with q
Jamaican accent, acted as II
he was q reckless spender. The
second man persuaded the VIC
tim to get into a card game
with the first man-'to take
some easy money"
| s2,SoO Bait
The victim agreed, and
thought he had won $2,50O
from the Jamaican. But to
collect, he had to show that
"he had money, too" He went
to his bank, withdrew $1,000
and showed 1t to the men, sit
ting in a car.
Somehow. as the victim later
told the story. the two men
handled his money, and then
wrapped 1t up in q handker-
chief, together with what he
thought was $2,500. and stuffed
1t all in his shirt. When he got
to his bank to redeposit all
the money. he found that all
he had in the handkerchief
were napkins.

known as the "handkei chief

Police were looking for two
colored males, about 35 years
old, one about 5 feet Z, the
other about 6 feet.
In the second case yesterday
q mother Of three children was
sitting in her car when a we'll
dressed man approached her
and asked her If she knew
where he could bank more than
$500 he had on his person. He
said he was q furniture dealer
from Richmond.
Partner Passes
While they were talking. he
stopped a woman in the street
(his partner) who he said he
saw pick up q billfold. After
a lot Of discussion and walking
back and forth, the victim was
led to believe that she could
get $1,100 from the find" II
she could prove she had enough
money so that she didn't have
to spend any Of the $1,100 for
80 days.
She went to her bank, with

and gave 1t to the woman, who
took it to an unknown doctor
she said she worked for. to-

told the victim she could get

Jackie May Change Hoirdo

WORCESTER. Mass. Sept.
10 (AP).-Some pertinent
facts about the care given
to the hair of Senator John F.
Kennedy's wife have emerged.
Some people say that If
her husband is elected Presi-
dent In November his young
wife Jacqueline will take to
the White House one Of the
most extreme hairdos ever to
grace a First Lady.
Nancy Lowe Gray. writing
in the Worcester Even Ga
zette, tells Of an interview
with Mrs. cKennedy's hair
dresser at Hyannis on Cape
Cod, during which these
points were brought out:
/. Mrs. Kennedy's hair is
rinsed with beer.
z. her nalr SLylo is kIlOWu
as a modified swan, and it's
Mrs. Kennedy's own creation.
8. She doesn't talk about
her husbands campaign as
she sits under the dryer.
Some more data obtained
by Miss Gray in talking to
Mrs. Madeleine Simoneau,
co-owner with her husband
Of Alfred's Beauty Salon:
The swan haircut measures
about 8 inches from the
crown of the head and falls
like drooped wings on either
side. It is slightly shorter on
top. But Mrs. Kennedy's style
has other features. Her
naturally wavy hair, which
needs no permanent, is worn

Columbus, O. - Gov. Michael
V. Disable yesterday slapped
down a protest against the use
Of the State Capitol grounds for
meeting by the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of
Colored People.
The complaint against the use
of the state property for a Palm
Sunday gathering to protest ra-
cial discrimination in Southern
states was contained in a letter
to the governor from a group
calling itself Advocates of De-
cency."
Although the letter carried a
Columbus postmark, it had no
return address and no individ-
ual's signature.
"To our utter amazement, sur
prise and thorough disgust, we
read that you are going to
permit a mob of unprincipled,
undisciplined, un-American Ne
groes to hold violence promot-
ing meeting on the steps of the
Capitol building of the great
state of Ohio Palm Sunday" the
letter said.
"This meeting is for the full
and express purpose of causing
and promoting violence and dis
regard for law in the city of
Columbus, the state of Ohio and
the nation"
Accused of Violating Oath
The letter accused Disable of
violating your oath of office"
by allowing the gathering.
"Local, state and federal dis
tribution' will be given the pro-
testing letters" the group prom
iSed.
Disable addressed his reply to
"Advocates of Decency (mis-
name0, wherever you are"

ton in your letter. he said, ''is
