A New York AP report notes bank robberies rise slowly but crooks now favor small scores over grand heists. Observers deride modern thieves as crude amateurs, citing a 17,000 dollar note incident by a 17 year old, a poster theft, and a seven year prison term for another. Cameras and alerts complicate robberies.
Public ceremonies at 2 p.m. Saturday in Thrill Park West Union street dedicate a new 52 by 29 foot shelter funded by a $15,000 project. Troop 45 will present colors, Mayor Holbert presides, and a memorial plaque honoring late Senator Tirvill will be unveiled. Manchester Girl Scout Troop 121 starts the fireplace, West Delaware junior high students provide music, Rev. Justin Kress closes the event.
