The pupils also visited the Employment Security Office, the Post Office, the Board of Educa tion office and the Hoke County Public Library. (Continued from page 1A) In an apparently unrelated break-in last Monday, Kenneth Julian Barnes, of the Rockfish area, reported that he and his wife returned home from work to find that someone had entered their house. Sheriff's reports say that the in truders had used some sort of tool to open the back door of the house and gain entry. A microwave oven worth about S400, two black and white televi sion sets valued at about S300, a S450 stereo, an AM-FM clock radio, a S50 camera, and assorted jewlery were said to be missing when the victims got home. Sheriff's deputies are in vestigating this matter. The News-Journal The Sens-Journal is publish ed every Thursday by Dickson Press Inc. at 119 V\ Elwood Avenue, Raeford, N.C. 28376.

In other police reports, Neil Senter, of Raeford reported the theft of his 1980 Chevrolet Cavalier last Sunday morning. The car was found on Main Street in Raeford that same morn ing with the keys in the ignition and nothing missing from inside. Reports say that the S4.000 vehi cle did not even have any gas burn ed out of it. .. .Defendants sentenced (Continued from page I A) went into the store, robbed ii and blindfolded the victim making her go along with them, the statement said. Johnson and the victim left in her car, said Powell. Johnson drove the car to the road on which the victim was later found and, after raping her, left the scene with Sinclair and Boyd in the car they were driving, said the statement. The three defendants appeared emotionless during the sentencing; however, afterwards, the 25-year, old Boyd asked if she could see her children before being sent to jail.: Superior Court Judge Edwin X Preston granted the motion pro; vided that the grandparents, wh<m were present in the courtroom, ha<r the children there by 1 p.m. Wednesday, May 16. The defendants were to leave for prison at that time. Preston also said that he would consider a motion for work release for the prisoners when they arc eligible. . . . Around Town (Continued from page 1A) on the top floor a Chapel. English speaking families needed a place for worship and the doctors and nurses needed a place for their devotionals. So, it was through the waiting room of the hospital that we and 16 others walked on our way to work each day for two weeks. The men working on the new addition, where they put a suspended ceiling in the Chapel, wired, plumbed and did finishing work in all the area. Four women went on to the nursing department where we painted and papered walls of the offices and instruction room. Two women helped the wife of the missionay make lunch for the crew each day (it was brought to the work site) and do the laun dry for everyone. "It was rather hard to relax the first week. On May ls?, their Labor Day, the Minister of Justice was assassinated and the streets seemed filled with machine gun carrying men. Some of our group said this posed no more danger than getting to and from hospital to work each day. Imagine hun dreds of busses and taxis vying for their place in the lane of traffic on ly to have to stop for a donkey cart laden with bananas, mangoes or yucas. Most of the cars were of the 50's vintage and if one broke down while in route, that's where it was repaired. Everyone had to dodge it. It's quite all right to drive the wrong way on a one-way street as long as you turn your lights on in the day time and turn them off at night. We were advised not to ride the busses and kidnapping was not out of the question since they believe all North Americans are rich, so we waited for the conve nience of the missionary vans for our iransportation. "Our quarters were not in the gringo or tourist section of the cfc ty, but the hotel was very nice witb swimming pool and beautiful gardens. The staff at the hotel became our friends and they werfc most eager to please. The delicious fresh pineapple juice and coffee a! breakfast made up for the potatoe^. and rice at dinner. On Sunday ww ate at a restaurant, Ali Baba and the Forty Chickens, and were serv ed filet mignon for $3.00. Beef is | very cheap - if only we could know whether it came from the open air market or the refrigerated grocery market. "All schools are private and operate 2 shifts per day. Students wear uniforms and fill the busseQ to overflowing. State University was closed two years ago due to in sufficient funds. Some members of our group went to the "barrios" (a very poor section) and white washed a two room cinderblock school that the parents had saved their money to build. They couldn't afford private schools and at present can't afford desks or books. The missionary nursA learned about the school on her rounds of checking the children for vaccination. "There are many pleasant memories of the South American visit. Just after siesta, we were fascinated by the women in their colorful dresses and sandals walk ing down the sidewalks with their huge dishpans filled with candy, pineapple, melons or fresh bake^L bread, balanced on their heads)? "The hospital employees who greeted us each day, bewildered because we were volunteering to work on our vacation; waiters at the hotel who were proud to learn 4 things, "good morning," "good night," "thank you" and "friend," and the appreciation on the faces of those who worshiped in the new chapel."
