Si^AfwMaIiavmi* Ti« vMvAv Vau« * VIM THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, September 17, 1964 PISTAKEE HIGHLANDS KAY SIELISCH 497-8414 PROFESSIONAL THIEF CHASED FROM LOCAL HOME Some time early in the morning of Sept. 8, after Ray Cunningham left for work a man was busy trying to get in *"to the home, and would have made it had he not been scared away by some one. The sheriff called him a tapper and a a real pro. The thief had cut the glass around the lock and had the lock opened. The sheriff also has a complete and distinct set of finger prints. The man kicked the dirt to destroy all the foot prints and in his hurry left the fingerprints. Without police protection in the Highlands we are sitting ducks and many , residents are becoming panicy with this wave of vandalism and robbery taking place so frequently The irony of all this is that Ray is a policeman on the Sunnyside force and he works hard for them and never misses his tour of duty and every one that meets Ray is impressed with his friendliness and helpfulness to others. t. Mount Hope Methodist Church The organist for the Sept. 6 services was Dolores Oakley, lay reader, Noel Gregg, greeters, Dolores and Noel Gregg, candle lighter, Gail Bischoff. Rev.
