Diamond's Owner
Wanting to Sell
For Wedding Gift
Washington, April 1 U'i Pag
ing Aly Kahn!
There's a big operator In town
who wants to sell the fubled Hope
diamond to Rita Hayworth's favo
rite Indian. He thinks Rita wpuld
like it as a wedding present.
There's Just one catch. The big
operator, Jack M. Werts of Day
ton, O., doesn't own the Hope dia
mond yet. i
But he thinks ho may have It
in a week or so. And if Rita and
Aly aren't afraid of the Jinx that's
supposed to haunt the gem, he
figures it would add a romantic
touch to their wedding. Especial
ly since the stone came originally
from India some 300 years ago.
It's not all romance with Werts,
however.
"The money's there," he said
practically. "That Aly Kahn is
good pay."
Right now, the Hope diamond,
a blue-white, 44 Vj carat bauble
that has adorned some of his
tory's most publicized beauties,
belongs to the estate of the late
Evalyn Walsh McLean.
When she died two years ago,
Mrs. McLean left the Hope and
the rest of her $606,000 Jewelry
collection to her seven grandchil
dren. The gems were to be held
In trust until 1967, when the
youngest grandchild, Mamie
Spears Reynolds, will be 25 years
old. .
But the trustees recently ob
tained permission to sell the en
tire lot, at not less than the ap
praised value, to pay off tax
claims against the estate.
12 Months Remain
For 'Mrs. Heart' '
Oklahoma City, April 1 (IP)
What would YOU do if you had
$10,000 and were told that you
had only 12 months to live?
A 51-year-old widow, known to
newspaper readers only as "Mrs.
Heart," said today that she has
received hundreds of answers
since she asked that question
through the Dally Oklahoman,
newspaper.
: Some of the telephone calls, tel
egrams and letters suggested out
right that Mrs. Heart might re
ceive some sort of satisfaction
from giving the senders her mon
ey. One man hinted delicately sit
matrimony. - - - "
But most of the helpful Amer
icans sent her messages of hope
and encouragement.
; Mrs. Heart said that none of the
messages "seems to have the an
swer I want." She said she "never
dreamed so many people would be
Interested" in her case.
The retired businesswoman said
heart specialists have told her she
has just one year to live. As a
result, she bequeathed her for
tune to charity and relatives. But
she retained SIO.OQO to spend dur
ing the remainder of her life. Now
she seeks suggestions on how to
spend It.
"I haven't had any fun I
never learned how to spend
money," she said.

'Buddy' the Bear
Greets Sportsmen
A novel host is greeting sports
men these days who visit the Rus
sel & Petersen war surplus store.
It's "Buddy" the bear, a small
black cub scarcely larger than a
kitten, who amuses customers
with his antics.
One, of three cubs recently cap
tured by A. L. Thompson on Su
gar mountain in Klamath county,
'Buddy' keeps regular store hours
with his owner, H. Petersen, and
goes home nights dog, pardon,
bear tired, to spend the darkness
hours curled up In a ball, asleep.
Buddy is frisky, but friendly
and quite harmless, lives on milk
and appears to find Petersen an
acceptable substitute for his form
er family.

tives gave a sympathetic ear to
the request for speeding up air
strip construction.
