(U.R) A voune wnmpn serrptarv with art idea and four-leaf clover luck started something 20 years ago mat today is a Dig ana unique business qf its kind in the United States. Like most women with a pen chant for starting things, this One nursued with feminine in tensity what she had begun. It took a uttle help from her fath er, however. It besan in Panama in 1932 when a young woman secretary was strolling m her father s "hobbv" natch. She snotted and plucked a four leaf clover. She took the good luck sym bol home and pressed the petals With an iron. She Tiaster! the fragile little plant on a birth day card and cave it to her boss. the American consul in Panama. ne was the late H. O. Williams. Consul Liked Idea Williams asked her, since she appeared to be blessed with luck, if she could dig .up 300 more lour leaf clovers. He, too, wanted to paste them on birth day cards to send to fellow dip lomats and friends in the Canal Zone. As a result the young lady developed what had been a hob by with her father growing clover into the business of growing four leaf clovers. Her father, Charles T. Dan iels, was a telephone engineer in the Canal Zone then and he liked to putter around in his clover patch on his off time. Operated as Farm Today Charles' son, William,' operates the family clover 'farm' in St. Petersburg, Fla. The bus iness was "moved there from Panama' six years ago. Miss Daniels, now Mrs. E.. E. Warwick, also of St. Petersburg, has watched the family business grow with typical "luck." They now ship between 3, 000,000 and 4,000,000 four leaf clovers to novelty and greeting card companies throughout the country. The luck did not come 'with out patient work. It took Charles Daniels, the head of the f amily and still living, 18 years of ex perimentation to develop enough of the "lucky" clovers to make the business really pay. Criminal Museum Holds All Needs For Identification Berkeley, Calif. (U.R) Dr. Paul Kirk, professor of criminal istics at the University of Cali fornia, has accumulated an ex tensive museum that fits into a laboratory locker and contains nearly everything needed for identification of evidence. The museum is used to give laboratory aid to police depart ments and to teach criminology students scientific detection. In the museum there are 200 samples of men's wool suit ma terial. The samples determine the significance of fibers involv ed in murder and other crime cases. Many Hair Samples The museum contains hun dreds of human hair samples collected from all types and ages of people. It contains samples of ink, metals and alloys, soils, commercial woods, drapery, upholstery and special cloths. Gun-enthusiastic students col lected bullets and cartridge cases from murder cases- and from the police practice range. The university's museum of vertebrate zoology provided wild animal hairs of west" coast mammals. A student employe of a fur shop furnished commercial furs. Last year a student attended dog and cat shows at the Sacra mento state fair to get hair sam ples from domestic animals. Students Worked Hard A student whose parents own ed a drapery business contribut ed the drapery samples.. Auto mobile paint samples were col lected by a student working in a body repair garage. Surface clothing fibers were collected by Students who rang doorbells and asked permission to sweep clothes with a special vacuum and filter. A good collection of wild bird feathers went to the moths in stead of to the museum. Dr. Kirk's small but effective museum is of eh used by Calif or- nia law enforcement in solving baffling crimes.
