Theft Rings
Arrested
By Sheriff
MARTINEZ (UPD The Con
ra Costa County sheriff's office
has announced the arrest of two
burglarly rings one a teen age
auxiliary" unit allegedly re
sponsible for 68 burglaries over
the past three years.
Thirteen persons, seven of them
juveniles, participated in the bur
glaries, according to sheriff's dep
uties. The largest job netted the
major gang $36,000 in the Pay
Day Department Store burglary
last February in Oakland. All told,
the gang netted a total of $65,000.
Contra Costa Sheriff Walter F.
Young said the "little gang,"com-
posed of Pittsburg teen-agers, im
itated the major ring. He said the
younger group burglarized serv
ice stations for tools used by the
older burglars. He said the little
gang also ransacked eight schools
several beverage companies, and
drive-in movie.
Young said the two gangs had
no organizational ties, but made
deals with each other.
The major gang was uncovered
June 16 when officers caught two
members on the roof of an An
tioch tavern after they had rifled
the till. The two were identified
Edward Owen Jr., 26, and
Robert Eagle, 25, both of Pitts
burg. On June 14, Billy Ray Lo-
baugh, 20, and Larry Eugene
Maxwell, 18, and two juveniles,
II members of the little gang
were picked up during a lumber
company theft at Antioch.
Other members of the big gang
were identified as Vernon Edward
Hughes, 23, Pittsburg, and Virgil
Lee Greene, 25, West Pittsburg.
The seven other members of the
little gang are being held at Ju
venile Hall here. They will appear
in court Friday and July 31. Lo
baugh has been sentenced to state
prison for burglary, while Max
well was given three year's pro
bation, four months in county jail
and a $250 fine.
Owen, Hughes and Greene of
the big gang were charged with
the Pay Day robbery. Both
Greene and Eagle pleaded guilty
to burglary charges, while Hughes
was in county jail pending trial,
Owen was sentenced to San Quen
tin Monday on a burglary charge.
Authorities said Owen also faces
a federal charge in San Diego for
smuggling marijuana into the
United States from Mexico. They
said Owen, Hughes and Green
spent most of the Pay Day loot
a drinking and gambling tour
of Reno, Las Vegas, Los Angeles
and Mexico.
Fitting Set
For Vessel
CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) - The
American ship Savannah was
afloat today, a long step toward
the time she goes to sea as the
world's first atom-powered mer
chantman.
The sleek, white-hulled Savan
nah was towed to a fitting-out dock
a few minutes after she slipped
smoothly down the building ways
Tuesday at the New York Ship
building Corp.
Today workmen swarmed
through her, getting ready to in
stall the final components of the
atomic power plant, and the fit
tings that will make her interior
match the yacht-looking appear
ance of her clean hull lines and
rakish superstructure.
Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower gave
the ship its name and sent the
21,000-ton Savannah down the ways
in the launching ceremony.
The first lady came by train
from Washington to sponsor the
ship her husband wanted built as
this country's proof that mankind
need not be destroyed by the atom
but can master it for peaceful
benefit.
While the first, static tests of
the ship's nuclear reactor may be
made before next year, the Savan
nah is not expected to start sea
trials until I960. It will be another
year before she will be ready for
long cruises with her 60 passengers

Ex-Officer
Relates Story
WASHINGTON (AP) A re
tired major general says no en
listed men were assigned to his
home in 1957 lo baby - sit, wash
lingerie and dishes, and clean up
after the dog.
Some men did work for him, he
said, but not on official duty.
"On the contrary, they were not
ordered to report," Maj. Gen.
James R.' Pierce said in El Paso
Tex., Tuesday night. "They ap
plied for the job and we paid them
out of our own pockets."
A charge that Pierce had used
enlisted men as servants was
made in a letter read to a House
Armed .. Services subcommittee
Tuesday by Rep. Frank Kowalski
(D-Conn). The letter had been
written by Joseph C. Bagwell of
Washington, D.C., a retired Army
sergeant.
Bagwell wrote he had been em
ployed for most of 1957 at Pierce's
home in Ft. Meade, Md.
But Pierce said Bagwell had
been fired from his job as cook
only a few days after Mrs. Pierce
hired him.
Asst. Secretary of Defense
Charles C. Finucane, after hear
ing Bagwell's letter, told the sub
committee he still knew of no in
stances where officers had enlist
ed men assigned as servants.
