Club Picks
Sharman
By RUDY CERNKOVIC
United Press International
Pittsburgh -(UPD- Showman
John H. Harris, elated because
Boston Celtic star Bill Shar
man has agreed to coach a
Pittsburgh entry in the NBA,
hoped today fans will be as
patient with his team as they
were with the Pittsburgh Pi
rates. "The Pirates won their first
world championship in 35
years," said Harris. "I hope it
doesn't take us that long to
produce an NBA winner but
the baseball fans waited. I
hope our basketball fans are
that patient."
Sharman, former University
of Southern California star
now sparking the Celtics, was
not expected to continue as a
player when he takes over the
Pittsburgh team.
Concentrate on Coaching -
"We want Bill to concen
trate on coaching," said Har
ris. "Now that we have a
coach, we'll get our players in
April and we're ready to go
next season."
Harris said Walter Brown,
owner of the Celtics, agreed
to release Sharman.
"Los Angeles had tried to
get Sharman but Brow.n
wouldn't let him go," Harris
said. "We are fortunate to get
a man of Sharman's 'stature
for Pittsburgh."
Harris, who pioneered in
the production of ice shows,
is president of "Icecapades."
Brown is vice president of the
show.
Harris embarked on his sec
ond venture into professional
basketball with optimism. He
fielded the Pittsburgh Iron-
men in the old American Bas
ketball league during the
1946-47 season.
"We played 30 games and
we didn't do too well," said
Harris.
Harris, who also owns an
inactive franchise in the
American Hockey league, said
he was ready to draft players
from the current eight teams
in the NBA in April. Selec
tions will be made after the
1960-61 season.
"Each team will have a list
of four 'draft-cligibles' and we
can choose one from each
team," Harris said.
"Chicago gets first choice
because it had made applica
tion for a franchise ahead of
us. Both of us should be able
to get the nucleus of a good
ball club from the draft."
Robertson In

Los Angeles-OJPIJ-Six play

Federal Investigators Seek Answers To
Baffling Iowa Bank Embezzlement Case
Editor's note! A tiny farm town
in northwestern Iowa is the seme
of one of the larcest and at the
same time one of th most baffling
bank embezzlement rases In the
annals of the U. S. Department of
Justice. The cunfessed perpetrator
Is the 58-year-old wife of a well-to-do
man; and daughter of the bank
president.
How and why did she do it?
The following dispatch treats un
these questions and describes the
Impact of one of the greatest em-
oezziement cases Of an tune on a
town of only 4, .51 persons.
By DAVE SMOTHERS,
FRED MOHN and BOB HOIG
UPI Special Reports Team
Sheldon, Iowa - IUPII - Fed
eral investigators moved into
the Sheldon National Bank to
day, trying to find answers
to two baffling questions: How
bank president's daughter
covered a fabulous $2 million
embezzlement and how she
spent the stolen money.
There was no hint of what
Mrs. Burnice Iverson Geiger,
58, did with the cash she ad
mitted taking from the finan
cial institution headed by her
father.
But most residents of this
Dutch Iowa community, stun
ned by the revelation of the
gigantic theft, doubted that
Mrs. Geiger was a "Robin
Hood" who took the money
to finance charities.
She's Not Telling
Mrs. Geiger, the kindly
well-liked daughter of b a n k
President W. P. Iverson, ap
parently wasn't telling what
became of the $2,126,859.10
she admitted taking over a
period of years in possibly
the nation s largest bank em
bezzlement.
Federal authorities, includ
ing three officials of the Fed
eral Deposit Insurance Corp.,
were not talking.
E. L. Cox Jr., FDIC super
visor of liquidation, said other
FDIC fieldmen from the mid
west would join him in the
next few days.
The FDIC officials were ex
pected to audit the books to
determine the exact amount
the federal agency would be
obligated to pay off to de
positors. Bank officials estimated de
posits totaled $3 million at
the time the embezzlement
became known.
The deposits were insured
up to $10,000 per depositor.
Payments to depositors were
expected within a few days.
Resident! Bewildered
The admitted theft of Mrs
Geiger, a woman respected
for her sympathetic heart, had
residents shaking their heads
in bewilderment.
As her minister, The Rev.
Thomas Lutman, 63-year-old
pastor of the First Congrega
tional church, said in puzzled
anguish:
'What has happened has

A loeeing truck driver
suffered slight injuries yester
day when the truck left the
Jacksonville highway at Ruch
and struck an oak tree ac
cording to state police.
The driver, David Don
Legg, 37, of 502 South Peach
St., Medford, suffered cuts and
bruises about the head ana

the shoulder, and the driver
lost control.
Officers said the truck
travelled 270 feet along the
shoulder and into the Sunny

crashed into a large oak tree
in the lot, knocking it down.
The truck was extensively
damaged, police said.

If the preliminary figures

hardware dealer, said:
"She does not want to get
out. She does not want to
come back to Sheldon and she
just doesn't know where to

9th St., the fulcrum of the
town's life - to ask "why?"
