FOUR GIVEN JAIL TERMS
AFTER PLEADING GUILTY
Nanty-Glo Man Gets Six Months for
Drawing Gun on Officers
Jail sentences ranging
weeks to six months were
upon four defendants, and four others
were given suspended sentences when
12 persons waived the finding of true
bills and appeared before the court
at Ebensburg Monday, pleading guilty
to the offenses with which they were
charged .
The most severe sentence was im-
posed upon Edward Horn of Nanty-
Glo, charged with obstructing a pro-
cess and pointing firearms. He was
sentenced to pay the costs and to
serve six months in jail when Officers
Campbell and Evans of the Nanty.Glo
police told thecourt that he had ac-
costed them with a gun when they
went to his home to place him under
arrest on a charge of drunkenness.
Blanche Castel of Portage, who
pleaded guilty to the theft of $20
from the place where she was em-
ployed as a domestic, was sentenced
to pay the costs and serve 30 days
to three years in jail. Edward Soul-
sby of Nanty-Glo, charged with driv-
ing an automobile while intoxicated,
was sentenced to pay the costs and to
serve from 30 days to three months
in jail.
Pleading guilty to three charges of
forgery, John Waughaman of Barnes-
boro was séntence to pay the costs,
make restitution in the sum of $37.50
and to serve from two weeks to five
years in the county jail.
Betty Reitler of Johnstown, who
pleaded guilty to forgery, was sen-
tenced to pay the costs, with further
sentence suspended, similar sentences
being meted out to George M. Dorman
of Johnstown, charged with assualt and
battery, and Francis Moran of Tunnel-
hill, charged with obstructing a pro-
CesSs.
The usual sentence was imposed
upon Raymond Skiles of Dale and
Rorsey Daniels, Alfred K. Mack and
James Bennett, Jr, all of Johnstown
who pleaded guilty to charges of vio-
lating the moral code.
Cyrus Daniels of Johnstown, charg-
ed with defrauding a boardinghouse
keeper, was sentenced to pay the costs
and was given two months in which
to liquidate the outstanding debt.
TH RE E EBENSBURG
YOUTHS ARRESTED
Emory Dunlap, 13 years of age,
Samuel Booth, 19, and John Rusick,
17, all Ebensburg youths, were placed
under arrest at Ebensburg Saturday
night and Sunday by State Police of
the Ebensburg barracks, Dunlap is
charged with the robbery of the Smith
Drug Store, of Ebensburg, and he
along with the other two boys, stands
charged with the robbery of stores in
Barnesboro, Cherrytree, Hillsdale and
Glen Campbell, the last three mention-
ed places being in Indiana County.
Dunlap and Rusick were taken into
custody Saturday night and placed in
the borough lock-up and Booth Sun-
day, and the three of them were place
in the county jail at Ebensburg Sun-
night, after having made statements
to the State Police admitting their
respective parts in the robberies at
the above places.
Dunlap, acording to his own state-
ment, Saturday night about 11 o'clock
entered the rear door of the Smith
Drug Store, and went up a fight of
steps to a small office, where he re-
moved from a desk $27 in cash. John
Smith, the proprietor, saw the boy
coming down the stairs and gave
chase, but Dunlap succeeded in mak-
ing a getaway: It is said he was met
in another part of town by Rusick and
a young lady from Ebensburg in a
small roadster and the three of them
went to Gallitzin, where they spent
some little time. They were picked up
at the Dunlap home upon their return
to Ebensburg about 1:30 a. m. Tha
two boys were remauded to the lock-up
and the young lady was returned home
to her parents. On their return home
from Gallitzin Dunlap hid the cash
along the highway at a poiné near the
Anderson Dairy farm, along the Eb-
ensburg-Muunster road.
In a statement made to the police
Sunday, Dunlap confessed that on
May 11 last he stole & Ford roadster
and hid it in the woods near Ebens-
burg. On Saturday night, May 17, he
said he and Booth drove the car to
Barnesboro where they gained entrance
to a geyperal store through a cellar door
and stole two blankets, a quantity of
shirts, ties, handkerchiefs, cigarets,
cigars and about $6 in cash. That
same night the two boys went to
Cherrytree where they robbed a but-
cher shop of four cartons of cigarettes,
Dunlap gaining entrance to the shop
through a rear window which had
been left open.
On the night of May 22 Dunlap,
Booth and Rusick drove the ear to
Hillsdale, where they took from a gas-
oline station and garage approximately
$3 in cash. It is said both Dunlap and
Booth entered this building through a
cellar door which had been left open.
That same night the three went to
Glen Campbell where they robbed a
small store of some cigarets and pipes,
Dunlap and Booth havnig forced a
window, the former entering the store,
according te the contession. Upon
their return to Ebensburg that night
Dunlap drove the car to a point neat
the Holy Name Cemetery, where he
abandoned it and where it was found
several days later by the State Police,
with part of the loot still in it.
The three boys are being held pend-
ing a hearing whichi will be held as
soon as the State Police have had an
opportunity to check up on the se-
veral robbies in which they are sup-
posed to be implicated. Both Booth
and Rusick made statements similar
to that made by Dunlap, admitting
their complicity in the crim®, The
parents of all three of the boys did
all in their power to aid the police
ingetting the statements and received
the commendation of the officers for
the valuable assistance rendered.
