Million Dollar
Pearl Exhibit
Lost in Texas

FORT WORTH, Tex, Nov.
IL (AP). - Pearls valued at
81 million vanished yesterday
from the hotel room of a Tokyo
exporter, who left them I'M
garded in a suitcase.
A mouse detective discovered
that someone had pried open
the door Of the room at the
Hotel Texas while the owner,
Hikoji Sakata, 38, was at a
club with friends.
Mr.. Sakata, a partner with
his four brothers in the Japa-
nese firm of Sakata Pearl Co.,
Ltd, has been exhibiting the
collection Of $4,000 natural and
cultured pearls in the United
States since July.
Asked why he left the pearls
in his ninth floor room in
stead of using the hotel safe.
he replied simply: THAT was
my big mistake"
Changed Rooms
Mr.. Sakata said he kept the
collection in his room except
for the first night he was in
Fort Worth, last Tuesday, when
the pearls were placed in the
hotels care. He changed rooms
each night as a precaution
against theft.
Mr.. Sakata placed the whole
sale value of the pearls at 81
million. A spokesman for his
firm in Tokyo said pearls in
the display from Japan were
insured but the status of others
possibly borrowed from United
States dealers was uncertain.
A major item in the collec-
ton was what Mr.. Sakata
called the worlds largest pearl,
valued at more than $4,000.
He said it was perfectly round
and 1872 millimeters in di-
ameter. Another showpiece was
100 strands containing $1,000
pearls.
Mr.. Sakata conferred several
times by telephone with the
older brother who heads their
firm, Tokindo Sakata, then
told newSmen:
MY brother said it's okay
we can grow more pearls"
The elder brother Cancelled

4 The White House South
Lawn was massed with mill
tary might this morning to
pay tribute to the great old
man of Germany, Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer and scores
of spectators were thrilled.
The occasion was the Of
fetal greeting of President
and Mrs. Kennedy to the
Chancellor, who is here on
o two day visit. His official
travelling companion and
Daughter, Mrs. Liheth Wer-
hahn, was also present.

Caroline Kennedy and her
school group watched the
military group and proceed
ings with their tiny hands
and noses glued to the win
dow panes in the second
floor Lincoln and Treaty
rooms.
The Presidents daughter
could be easily identified as
she was perched on the win
dow sill of the Treaty Room.
She wore a white blouse and
red overalls.
While the President and
the Chancellor we're exchang-
ing greetings on a red-car-
peted platform directly across
the driveway of the south en-
trance, Mrs. Kennedy whis-
pered to Frau Werhahn, tell
ing her of the young viewers.
The two young matrons
turned to look up at the
windows. However, typical
of children, they had disap-
peared after the first excite
tnent had stopped, the 18-gun
salute had quoted and the
speeches began.
Mrs. Kennedy and the
Chancellor's daughter are
different type beauties.
The First Lady, a tall bru-
net, had to lean over as she
spoke to the tiny platinum
blond daughter of the Ger
man leader.

the staircases leading up to it.
Although there was a chill
in the air the brilliant sun
light picked up one of Wash

scenes--the White House, the
south lawn and the long
vista to the jefferson Me-

Mrs. Kennedy was wearing
a fuchsia wool coat, a black

black leather shoes and
gloves.
The President defied the
cool weather by not wear
ing a top coat and greeted,
his guests in a conservative
navy pin stripe suit.
Before the arrival of the
German party the Kennedys
chatted informally with Sec
rotary Of State and Mrs.

The Chancellor and his
party were escorted to the

limousines by several motor
policemen.
Clap Hands
The erect German Chan
cellor, in his 80s, fairly leaped
out of the car to grasp Mr..

He was followed by his
daughter, who with her very
blond hair almost seemed to
pay tribute to the American
flag as she was wearing q
smart blue wool suit and a
bright red velvet hat, perched
on the back of her head.
After the dignitarles. both

accompanied by an 18-gun
salute and followed by the
American national anthem.

Welsh Rare Bit :
Roadrunner Golfers All

There are times when feel that l. with
all others of the human race, have been
dumped upon the planet earth, without rule
or compass, and am unable to govern my
self or my destiny I also feel that this con-
dition is meant to last until the bureaucratic
moralist arises and discovers that the chief
end of mankind is happiness and that the
way to secure happiness is to form govern
ment which appoints commission which
forms committee which selects a sub-com-
mittee to frame a body of rules which all Mum
gummery Countians must obey to gain hap
piness
But until this happy time comes, must
wait until the rules are published and shall
continue to seek my own happiness by my
own methods. And one of these methods is
learning to play this challenging, annoying,
frustrating, damnable and delightful game
of golf One cannot make his own rules on
the golf course (although have been tempted
to use a handmashie from the cat-tails off
number ten at River Road, but the rules
which govern golf, although as inflexable as
the law of the Modes and the Persians, are
not as onerous as bureaucratic laws. Further
more, the cost of golf is called green fees or
dues" and never taxes. AS a matter of fact,
"dues' can be arranged so that taxes" are
reduced.
One of the reasons that we boys in
mems clothing play this game is because
we generally like each other. In the adult
world of the law, men can seldom really
show they like each other, and that old
maxim "Heres to my partner and friend,
good and true; you cheat him before he
cheats you" generally dominates social
connections.

The yawning fssure that sometimes separates the
