At least two men were involved, one posing as a police officer and another as a bank executive, police said. The con the men used was a variation of the "bank examiner scam." The swindlers are highly trained members of a large organization, Detective Doug Scott said. "They are very, very sophisticated," said Scott, Emily Polasek, 91, sculptor's widow, supporter of arts EMILY POLASEK, 91, who with her late husband, Czechoslovakian sculptor Alpin Polasek, established the Polasek Foundation in Winter Park, died Friday after a long illness. Born in Prague, Czechoslovakia, she moved to St.

Paul, with her family in 1910. She married dentist William Kubat in 1917 and moved with Orlando after he retired in 1951. Kubat died in 1960. After marrying Polasek in 1961, the couple, established the Polasek Foundation in Winter Park. The sculptor died in 1965.

Mrs. Polasek encouraged her husband to continue sculpting after a stroke crippled his legs and right hand, said her stepson, Donald Kubat, of Oakland, Calif. A nephew, William Muska of Naples, said she also was an exceptional storyteller. She wrote her autobiography in the early 1980s. Polasek created sculpture of his wife in 1961 as a wedding gift.

A bronze cast of the figure stands in a reflecting pool in Central Park.
