Barker Hold-up Bandits Caught

Working with the Chicago Heights police and the Calumet Region police, Officer Van Laningham arrested two ex-convicts Sunday night. One was identified as the Barker Filling station hold-up suspect from Lansing on March 29, with John Lauderman linked to a similar charge in Kankakee. Lauderman, a habitual criminal, faces trial in Kankakee and possible return to prison for gun offenses. His companion Arthur Pelkey, also paroled, faces possible prison for carrying a gun. A separate incident mentions an embryo Babe Ruth causing injuries in a Brooklyn sandlot game and a barber’s ribs broken by a sneeze in Arkansas.
