Three Winchester Years Defended for Hall Site Robber
A one to three year term was given to Charles Augustus Barthlow, 21, for pocketbook snatching in Frederick in January. He pleaded guilty after a mid trial change of plea, with sentencing deferred for a pre sentence report. The court noted a history dating to 1952 and called the crime violent. Also described were other defendants including Alvin Morris, a WWII veteran with a rich service record, awaiting sentencing, and Charles Dodson, a 16 year old facing escape charges with juvenile court waivers sought. Wardens considered suspending sentences for others like Wilbur Ford, 29, charged with grand larceny for a stolen chainsaw, given his rugged life and need for work placement assistance.

Transit Of Canal Begun By 2 Ships
Two small ships started moving through the Suez Canal as Egypt prepared to grant final clearance for the vital waterway. The 147 ton yacht Maralvi and the 238 ton Greek vessel Mikali, towed by a 292 ton barge, began south from Port Said, with canal authorities announcing a break for ships under 500 tons. The reopening aims to lift most blockages from the conflict period, with three weeks projected to remove the remaining wrecks and restore traffic up to 10,000 tons.
