Boys Secret Booomberang Raid Ends In Flight
Four Hill Crest youths entertained by Harper bungalow girls staged a nighttime prank by pointing revolvers at occupants, prompting a scream and a cake theft as they fled.

A local real estate adette ends with M G Neff announcing continued service from 228 1 2 Fourth Street West.
