Seven-year-old buccaneer Mike-
Casey knew just what,to do when'
he found a basket of jewelry hid-,
den in a field last week.
Mike, who is the son of Prof,
and Mrs. Ralph Casey, discovered
the basket-while taking a backyard
shortcut from his house at 306
Ransom street to the home of a
friend on West University drive.
He was following a hedge row
when he spotted the basket, partly
hidden by leaves, in the bottom of
a guiley.
A find that would delight any
young buccaneer, the basket con
tained silver bracelets, rings a
qamera, a shiny leather photo
graph case and souvenir articles.
The visit to his friend forgotten,
Mike took the “loot” to a nearby
lot and hid it in some weeds “tall
er than I wa.s.” He hurried home to
draw a treasure map.
When he asked his mother how
to spell ‘guiley’ and some neigh
bors’ names, her curiosity was
aroused, and upon being question
ed h e explained that he was draw-
a treasure map.
She asked, “what kind of treas
ure are you looking for?”
“I’m not looking for any treas
ure,” Mike replied, “I’m hiding
some.”
With her interest spdrked, Mrs.
Casey asked, “then what kind of
treasure are you hiding?”
Mike, like any other buccaneer
who is proud of his exploits, talk
ed freely, but not without excite
ment:
“I found a lot of jewelry stuff—
I found a bracelet in it and a whole
lot of other junk!”
This was becoming more than
interesting, Mrs. Casey said, and
after explaining the facts of pro
perty ownership, she sent him af
ter the “loot” and then they both
went knocking on neighbors’ doors
trying to locate the owner.
No one-claimed the basket of
jewelry, and it appeared that none
of the neighborhood kids were in
volved. Mrs. Casey then called

the police and turned the case
’over to them.
A spokesman for the police
department reported today that
the missing owner is yet to be
found.
The basket is a souvenir-ype
shopping basket of woven wood-
strips, and the bracelets, rings,
pins—none of which have precious
/stones —. and the other articles
seem of the type found in souvenir
shops.
Some of the pieces are from
England. Guatemala, the Orient,
and the U.S. Among the articles is
a ticket envelope from the Dutch
air lines, and a signet ring en
graved with the name ‘Fuller’ and
the word ‘dymaxion.’
When found, the basket had its
lid broken off and the contents
we're apparently un\yeathered.
Some articles were wrapped in
tissue paper and others were in
cardboard boxe.s. None showed
signs of exposure to rain or sun.
The police have no clue as to
the owner of the jewelry, and
,one officer thought th.at these
articles may have been discarded
by- someone.
