WOMEN'S WATCH

ON BIG HOUSES

Women crooks are causing a lot of trouble in London, and special efforts are being mado by Scotland Yard to round up two women house-

breakers who have recently made good hauls in West-End house5.

Both have displayed -extrnordin- ary daring.

The Intest effort was the robbery

at Lady Illingworth's house, where a palo, dark-complexioned woman calmaly visited a number of rooms, removed the jewellery and wont into tho room where · Lady Illingworth was in bed.

The woman entered the servanta' quarters where the servante were nt ten.

The two "wanted" women are specialists in the "walk in" kind of robbery. They reconnoitre a likely house, watch the entrances and, when the const is clear, calmly walk in and ransack the rooms.

Both women are usually stylishly dressed and in a big house it is quite possible for them to move about without their being regarded with suspicion, particularly if the owner is in the habit of entertain- Ing frequently. The raids are made at varying hours during the day.

Theso particular women crooks aro individualists-it is not bellov- ed they are in any way connected with the gangs who make periodic raids.

A few months ago a woman crook was being sought in the Home Counties because it was belioved that a woman-stylishly dressed and with beautiful grey hair-was the driver of a big car which was being used by men carrying out country houses raids,

"The woman who becomes crook," said a criminologist yester- day, "often provides a greater pro- blem for detectives than her male counterpart. She is usually of more than averago Intelligence, and uses her brains and lays her plans with much more care than men."

The Lawn Tennis Association has been asked to send a mixed team of leading British players to South Africa towards the end of the year.
