Truck With Diamond Jewelry Disappears Tucson, Ariz. (U.R) Tucson police were investigating today to determine whether a trunk containing 5200,000 in diamond jewelry had been "misrouted." The trunk disappeared from the Southern Pacific Railroad baggage room here sometime between 11:30 a.m. and 12:43 p.m. Monday. Fred J. Cannon, jewelry salesman for the Can-non-Schaefer agency in Los An geles, reported the steamer-type trunk contained three sample cases of jewelry which he had displayed to Tucson retailers a short time earlier. Cannon, 62. San Marino, Calif., told police he put the jewels back in the trunk and left it at the station while he returned to his hotel room to check out. He discovered it missing when he went to the station to check his luggage through to El Paso.

Tax agents William Huhta and Henry Boyd parked their car on the Oregon shore and boarded the Wcst-Puget Island ferry in order to serve papers on owner operator Elmer Danielson. Dan ielson accepted service during the trans-Columbia trip and then announced on the Washing ton shore that he was suspend ing service. Huhta and Boyd were forced to make a three hour hitchhiking trip via Long view back to their car. Oregon has been attempting to collect taxes from Danielson since 1945. He contends that he operates out of Washington and pays taxes in that state. Oregon taxes, he argued, would consti tute double taxation. A member of the Danielson family said yesterday that un less the tax dispute can be set tled the ferry would remain out of service. The largest of ocean steamers can travel 1,000 miles up Bra zil's Amazon river even in the period of low water. E. Stothers, who have been ill, were able to attend.

Howe picked up one goal and one assist last week to increase his season total to 79 points.

This burst enabled him to increase his lead over teammate Jimmy Moore to eight points with only eight games remaining on the schedule.
