Eagle Point A special bond
election will be held at Eagle
Point on June 27 to amend the
city charter by allowing a bond
ed indebtedness not to exceed
$15,000, according to City Re
corder Sam F. Coy.
The election was ordered by

department, Coy explained.
The special election will be
held from noon to 7 p.m. at a
central polling place to be an

At a council meeting follow
ing a June 10 public hearing the
city council approved a total
budget of $24,245.10 for the
1952-53 fiscal year. No special
election on the budget is neces
sary, Coy related, because of a
five year continuing levy voted

The total tax levy for the next
fiscal year is $8,127.55 with only
$687.21 inside the 6 per cent lim
itation. Estimated receipts for

To Hold Him Until Police Arrive

tackle by a passerby ended a
brief robbery splurge by a 39-year-old
gunman Friday night

liquor store was robbed.
George Henry Stephenson,
Portland, a railroad worker, was
jailed on two charges of armed
robbery after he was captured
and disarmed and then identi
fied as the man who an hour
previously had held up a neigh
borhood grocery several blocks
from the liquor store.
Citric Gives Chase
Joseph Kennedy, 64, liquor
store clerk, chased Stephenson
from the establishment after the
suspect had pulled a .38-caliher
revolver and pocketed about $58.
Kennedy caught Stephenson
counting the money behind a
tavern, but the gunman broke
away from him and was fleeing
down the street when Lyle K.

the chase.
Arends downed the fugitive
with a tackle and was sitting on
him, with Kennedy holding the
robber's gun, when police ar
rived. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Riizo,
owners of the grocery store,
picked Stephenson from a police
lineup as the man who took
about $70 from them an hour
