plea of guilty inst Monday". Ham
lin, who confessed to holding up
two orchard laborers at the Wes
tcrlund orchards last month, has
been a local resident for sometime i
and Is a. former employe of the
orchard..,- , v
Hamlin was assisted in the crime
by two local boys.'scheduled to ap
pear today in juvenile court. The
boys searched Kollx Sambousky
and Clarence Hedgepeth, whllp
Hamlin kept them covered with a
nun. . "
Although officers had hut few
clues, the trio was arrested by the
sheriff's office through a chain of
evidence that had been wound
around them, Including comparison
of wheel tracks at the hunkhouse
and the fact that Hamlin had bor
rowed a gun a few days before the
holdup. The three had tilso been
seen together several times.
