Inspector Sought For Sears Imposter On Frederick Street
Heinz Heinemann of the Sears Roebuck Store warns Frederick residents about a short white man in a black Chevrolet pickup posing as a Sears appliance inspector. He conned Mrs. Dolly Harwood of Adamstown into paying $60 for non existent stove work, then fled. State Police traced him to Adams town and Buckeystown but he did not cash the check. Sears urges victims or those who paid him to report to the Sears store or the Frederick State Police barracks. Also notes Philip Morris Inc reports record 1956 sales of $526,814,554, up 15 from 1955.
