No More Clues in Peabody's Robbery as Prophecy Shows

Solution of the Peabody Museum was no nearer yesterday in spite of the efforts of Colonel Apted's office and the police. The robbers' escape in spite of the fact that a prowl car reached the scene not three minutes after the alarm sounded was still a mystery. The gold and jade objects were still unrecovered.

Meanwhile a curious coincidence was revealed by Robert S. Playfair '36 who has written a book called "The Crimson Road" which deals with a robbery of the Peabody Museum by a set of international crooks under similar circumstances to those on Friday.

Playfair's book was written in June was set up in type and will be published next Fall by Houghton Miflin in a series of books for boys with Harvard as a background. He was unwilling to stretch the coincidence too far yesterday but said that gold and jade were stolen in his story also.
