Ail Victims Found Guilty at Kangaroo Court Sessions Wednesday night's session of the Kangaroo Court saw many big names come before the Im partial jury, who after a very fair and complete trial found all of the many victims guilty. The session, conducted by the JayCees, called up many Hepp nerites for violation of the dress up code which required residents to be properly attired in western dress. John Ernsdorff served as ludee. Bill Barratt, master of ceremonies. Hank Rauch, sheriff, Everett Keithley, prosecuting at torney, and the jury consisted of Marvin Wightman, Fritz Cuts forth, Steve Thompson and Mrs. Hank Rauch. A few of the many violators were Orville Cutsforth, Ronnie Olson, Pat Maclntyre, Louie Carlson and Roy Carter all of whom were found guilty. Some of the criminals pleaded inability to pay the fines assessed by the court and found themselves dunk. ed in the horse trough. According to reports reaching the Gazette Times after adjournment the jury reportedly felt that some of those dunked probably needed a bath anyway. As the concluding case present ed to the court, the jury ruled judge John Ernsdorff was out of order and ordered him replace by Harvey Wilhite who immed iately sentenced him to a swim, to the delight of the crowd and former victims.
