announced this week a grant of
$145,000 from the U.S.
Department of Health

This program will increase

areas by offering grants for
summer study.
The faculty development
will also increase participation

Con Artists Take
Victim At K-Mart
Two slim flam artists took a
victim for $4,000.00.
Miss Ann L. Streeter stated
that she was in the K-Mart
flower shop when a young
female approached her and
started up a conversation. She
stated that the young lady
became very friendly and
offered to help her take her
flowers to her car. While the
two women were walking
toward tLe car, another young
lady approached them with an
envelope in her hand and asked
if either had dropped the
envelope in the store. Both
replied that they had not and
then the lady with the
envelope opened it.
Miss Streeter said that she
and the other lady were led to
believe that there was
$31,000.00 in bills and a
SIO,OOO negotiable bond in it.
The lady with the envelope
stated that she worked for a
bank as a messenger and that
she would go to the bank to
see if anyone had lost the
money. The ladies agreed to
wait for her until she returned
from the bank. When she did,
she told them that she had
talked with the president of
the bank and had shown him
the money. She reported that
the bank president told her it
was gambling money and that
it was a familiar practice for a
gambler to drop money and
have a pick up man come
Good Neighbor
Hedges Peeping Tom
An Augusta woman received
a call from a neighbor that a
peeping tom was standing at
her house looking inside.
She called the sheriff’s
department and while she was
waiting for the deputies to
arrive the peeping tom ripped
immediately behind him jb
picking it up. The president
wanted to take the money and
put it in a bank deposit box for
safe keeping; and said that he
would pay each of them a
$9,000 dollar reward for
turning the money in. The
female with the envelope
offered to handle the
transaction for the group so
that the others would not have
to take any risks.
This lady suggested that the
others put $6,000.00 each in a
kitty as a gesture of good faith
and honesty. The slim flam
artist led the others to believe
that she had withdrawn $6,000
dollars from her bank account
for them to hold as good faith
money and to show that she
was honest. All three agreed to
the arrangement and left for
the First National Bank where
Miss Streeter after realizing she
had made a mistake in her
account withdrew $4,000,
receiving the money in small
bills.
The three women then
decided to eat lunch at
McDonalds before sending the
bank messenger for the reward
money. They ate lunch, then
the woman with the envelope
full of their money went to get
another hamburger, but never
returned. The other friendly
female then went to look for
the one who left, leaving the
victim $4,000 poorer never to
see her money again.

As the man was about-ready
to make his bold entrance, a
police car arrived saving Miss
Watkins from a less than happy
fate and causing the intruder to
dive into a bunch of hedges.
