Guest-Detective Put To Work
On Jewel Thefts in Monaco
. By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
Monaco (U.R) A New York
detective invited by Prince Rai
nier to attend his wedding was
put to work today with four
French inspectors in an attempt
to stop the jewel thefts that
have plagued guests of the
prince's marriage to actress
Grace Kelly.
The detective, Frank Cressi,
acted as the prince's bodyguard
on his recent New York visit.
Rainier developed such an ad
miration for the combined linguist-detective
who had guard
ed other visiting royalty he in
vited him to the wedding.
The latest report was the theft
of about $6,000 worth of jewels
from Mrs. Maree Pamp, wealthy
Philadelphia socialite and one
of Miss Kelly's bridesmaids. The
jewels were removed from a
black zippered bag in her room
at the swank Hotel de Paris.
They were originally estimated
worth $10,000 to S20.000.
Rumors Are Flying
It was the second theft report
ed by police, but rumors swept
the principality that several
other guests had been robbed.
Police refused even to discuss
the known thefts, let alone dis
cuss the rumored ones.
The first theft was that of
$45,000 in jewels from the suite
of Matthew McCloskey, publish
er of the Philadelphia News and
treasurer of the Democratic Na
tional committee. Monegasque
police said at first they knew
nothing of that robbery.
Mrs. Pamp said she left the
zipper bag of jewelry in one of
her dresser drawers when she
left for church Monday to take
part in the rehearsal for. the
wedding. She returned to her
room late in the afternoon and
discovered it was missing.
The jewelry was insured. It
included a set of pearl earrings,
a diamond bracelet, a necklace
of cultured pearls, two gold
bracelets and a watch.
Doesn't Tell Grace
"I don't know what I'll do,"
she sighed.
However she did not tell Miss
Kelly about the theft when she
attended a bridesmaids' party
Monday night at the palace since
she said she did not want to
dampen the wedding spirits, al
ready upset by the McCloskey
theft. .
Police redoubled their guards
at the Hotel de Paris which has
been reserved for the guests,
most of them wealthy. The
prince called in Cressi and four
inspectors of the Nationale, the
French federal police.

Tuesday. April 17, 1958

The tension at the glittering
hotel rivaled that in the Grace
Kelly movie "To Catch a
Thief," which was a story of
Riviera jewel robberies. Police
tried to hush up the crime, but
admitted the theft after the
blonde Mrs. Pamp told friends
about it.

Tank Owners
There's nothing more embar
rassing than a septic tank that '
doesn't work! Usually there are
two reasons why they stop-up
and overflow (1) the tanks are
not cleaned at proper intervals;
(2) toilet tissue that does not
readily disintegrate may clog the
drains and force them to back upl
Not all toilet tissues are made
with the septic tank problem in
mind. The one that is MD
Toilet Tissue is scientifically
processed so that it absorbs water
completely and quickly.
Best advice: Consult your
County Health Department, your
plumber, or a septic tank service
company, for advice on cleaning
your tank. Use MD Toilet Tissue!
