Two county schools
plagued by break-ins
Two Hoke County schools were
plagued by break -ins last week and
one of them was hit twice, accor
ding to reports from the Hoke
County Sheriff's Department.
Last Monday, West Hoke
School was broken into and
entered according to Barbara
Lupo, who filed the report.
The school was entered through
a rear window and the reading
labratory was robbed, reports say.
From the lab, perpetrators took
a filmstrip projector, a cassette
recorder and an electric hotplate,
reports say.
The value of the stolen property
was SS18.
On November S, an outside
storage room at Upchurch Jr.
High was broken into where a
clearing saw, or a weed cutter, was
apparently stolen, reports say.
The Husquorna cutter, was
valued at $250.
Again, on last Wednesday, the
school itself was entered and some
public address equipment was
taken.
According to reports, the side
door of the school was the point of
entry.
Culprits went into the
auditorium and took two speakers
from the stage, reports say.
The speakers' wires were cut
under the stage before they were
taken.
The speakers had been set up for
a school function the week before
and left up for an anticipated func
tion, reports say.
There was no estimated value on
the speakers in the report.
In other crime, cattle rustling
has apparently come back in floke
County.
Bill Spangler, of the Bar S
Ranch, near Davis Bridge, told
sheriff's deputies that he is missing
a medium sized cow.
The cow is a Hereford, brown in
color with a white face, reports
say.
According to Spangler, the cow
had a "Circle R" brand on her left
hip and identification tags in both
ears.
When trying to find out what
happened to the cow, Spangler
could find no evidence that the
wire fence surrounded the pasture
had been cut, reports say.
The cow had a reported value of
S 1,500 and was discovered missing
last Thursday.
Last Sunday, Peter Knutsen
reported that, while he and his wife
were gone to church, someone ap
parently stole his lawnmower and
gas grill.
The theft happened sometime
between the hours of 5:30 p.m.
and 9:30 p.m., reports say.
The total value of the stolen pro
perty was reported at $388.
On November 9, Duffle Grocery
was broken into, reports say.
Taken in the break -in was some
money and cigarettes, reports say.
Bernard McLean, who made the
report, discovered the apparent
break-in when he arrived to open
the store and discovered pry marks
on the bottom of the door.
Once inside the store, McLean
also discovered a boarded up win
dow opened and entered.
Total damage and property loss
amounted to $309, reports say.
About $33 in change was taken
from the home of Terry Corum on
November 9, reports say.
According to reports, the house
was entered through a bedroom
window and was ransacked.

. . . Man sentenced for incest
(Continued from page 1A)
later that day, he was arrested by
Patterson.
In a conversation with Patter
son, James allegedly said: "Well,
we did it overseas, and I just
thought it would be- O.K. back
here," reports and testimony
show.
"I don't sleep at night. It's hard
to sleep after seeing people blown
up right in front of you overseas,"
the defendant allegedly told Pat
terson.
James was honorably discharged
from the Army, court records say.
James said he did not remember
committing the acts on the child;
however, his wife said in court that
the acts had been going on about
once or twice per month for about
six months.
According to the wife, James
allegedly had a problem with
alcohol.
"He did consume a great deal of
beer," she said.
She also testified there had been
times when he said things about
the other children in the family,
children of whom he was the
father.
Once, when speaking of the
gurglings of their baby, James
allegedly said: "She must be prac
ticing for deep throat," the wife
said.
In that hearing, James took the
stand.
He had lost his job the previous
Monday, he said.
"I no longer have the mental
ability to be a mechanic," said
James with his head in his hands.
"I've got to try to find me," he
said. j
"The main cause of my problem
occurred many years ago," he add
ed, alluding to his Viet Nam ex
perience.
