Two Firms on US 83 Burglarized
Burglars entered two business homes on Highway 83 Thursday night August 1 taking about five or six dollars in change from each. Entry into Owens Service Station at Lucky Corner was gained by removing bars from a rear room leading to the station. The change was taken from the cash register, owner Robert Owens told officers. The latch on a kitchen window was pried loose at Dairy Mart where coin boxes of the cigarette machine and juke box were broken into. The burglars left by the back door. Weekend visitors in the home of Mr and Mrs AL Bledson were Dallas residents Mel, Henry Miller and Kathy.
