ZBARWASD(! hooded bandits boldly burst into the ! spacious home of multi-millionaire William G. Mather early today, slugged his wife and got away with jewelry valued at between $200,000 and $800,000. Moving with commando-like pre- cision, the robbers were armed With | 1 sub-machine gun and revolvers. | Mather, 93-yeay-old honorary board chairman of the Cleveland Cliffs Iron Co., slept through the ntire operation. Stationing one man outside in sase the burglar alarm went off, the robbers entered the main residence through a servants’ entrance. None of the seven servants heard them. Then they sauntered into a sec- ond floor bedroom, where the 60- year-old Mrs. Mather was asleep | ind flashed the beam of a flashlight | in her face. She awoke to find a | man standing over her with a sub- machine gun. She screamed. After some difficulty, the bandits | and Mrs. Mather opened a safe but | found it contained only “goid an- iques.” The robbers then threatened | her with further violence and she | told them her regular jewels were | in a dressing room cabinet just ofl | her bedroom. They got the jewelry and escape: “The jewelry doesn’t mean mucl she said later. “It is purely ser mental.

Seme loon SAVE THIS PUZZLE AND SUBMIT IT WITH THE WEEKLY SET OF AL. WHAT TO Here’s how you take part In this big opportunity! Every issue this newspaper will publish Alaskagrams in consecutive order, six each week for 12 weeks—a total of 72 Alaska- grams, Each Alaskagram is a group of scrambled letters which form mean- ingless words or a mnonsensical phrase. After an Alaskagram is unscrambled the letters form the name of a place in Alaska; how- ever, there is one superfluous letter —an extra, additional letter which is not needed to form the word.

For example, the phrase “FOR A CHANGE” when it is un- scrambled equals “ANCHORAGE” plus the extra letter F. Just remember that all place- | names consist of only one word— and remember td show the extra letter. There is only one correct, answer to each Alaskagram. jof Sauvies Island Feb. |said, is that Jones had little mdney PORTLAND, Feb. 23—(®—Mys- tery still shrouds the death of Myl- es W. Jones, 59, ex-Alaskan min- ing engineer who will be buried here tomorrow. His body was found on the bank 13. There was a head bruise and his cloth- ing pockets were turned inside out. But an autopsy failed to disclose the cause death. Despite the indi- cations from the bruise and the empty pockets, County Detective Warren Weiss declined to accept a foul play theory. “This looks 99 percent like well- o) red suicide,” he said. The corcner’s office made a tentative finding of ‘“undetermined cause.” Weiss said the bruise could have Leen inflicted by a log in the Wil- lamette River and the pockets could have been turned by someone find- ing the corpse after the receding river had left it exposed, if they were nct turned out before. Weiss said many acquaintances told him Jones said he would com- mit suicide if he ever ran out of money. Present evidence, Weis although he is known to have spent scme $10,000 in the past two years. He had a $5000 paid up insurance policy, with a double indemnity clause, made out to his wife in Anchorage, Weiss sald.
