Prowlers Ruin
Church Juke Box'
Prowlers who entered the
basement of All Saints' Epis
copal church some time recently
took $5 from a "Juke box"
(record player), but greatest loss
was in damage to the machine
itself. Father C. Bruce Spencer
reported.
The record player had been
stored in a closet. When the
damage was discovered, it was
evident that someone had
punched the lock, broke the coin
mechanism, and broke into the
back. Worse, however, they
wantonly destroyed the intricate
mechanism.
Chief of Police Dean Gilman
was called to investigate. He
said he did not believe it to be
the work of children.
Father Spencer said the ma
chine was loaned to the church
by Winn Crist and was valued
at more than $1000. The person
responsible for the damage
could well be termed "the mean
est man," he said. He suggested
that other churches kept their
buildings locked.
