RACE SWINDLE

| Terre Haute Couple Bets on

Right Horse but

Wrong Man.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 7 (U. P).—A Terre Haute couple, elderly and sedate, came to Cincinnati today hunting for a “nice Mr. Cunningham” who, they said, swindled them of $14,000 on a “sure thing” race horse bet at Hollywood, Fla. Without giving their names. They told their story to Detective Sergt. John Oman, who was unable to institute an investigation because the

crime was not committed in Ohio. They said Mr. Cunningham and

By that time, the couple was ready | to join the syndicate and gave Mr, | Cunningham the $14,000 to place on | a certain horse which his tipster | had recommended. That horse, the couple said, won. But Mr. Cunning= | ham came {o them feeling terrible about it. He had bet on a different horse of his own choice, he said. He was so remorseful that he pro posed to fly to his Montana ranch and get $14,000 with which to repay the couple. He said he would meet them in Cincinnati Jan. 5. The couple was here to confirm their growing suspicions that ‘nice Mr, Cunningham" was a swindler.
