Koon Trial Cancelled as Defendant Pleads Guilty
Robert Lee Koon of Athens Route 2 pleaded guilty to auto larceny and requested sentence mitigation. Judge Francis D White, absent until Wednesday, considers the plea as the January grand jury had indicted Koon for stealing a car later recovered near Chillicothe after a chase that damaged the vehicle. The calendar shifts share the court docket with Ernest McGrath and James Sowards cases. McGrath faces two breaking and entering counts and a grand larceny count, now set for March 16. Sowards, charged with second degree murder, has his trial moved to March 23 while he undergoes a 30 day hospital observation at Lima.

Ackerman Defends Federal Farm Program
Athens County Extension Agent Kenneth Ackerman argues the federal farm program is highly misunderstood. He cites 25 percent of U S farmers producing 80 percent of crops and notes the government nets about 90 cents back per dollar invested. He says consumer prices do not track farmer prices, with farmer prices down 17 percent since 1952 while retail prices rise.
