Drunken DrivinQ
Spree Lands Two
Youths In Jail
West Virginions Clip
Along at 30 Miles Per
Hour Before Stopped

Even Sheriff Donald Conaway
couldn't keep up with Meredith
Shadock, 10, and his companion,
Norman Strickling, also 10, from
Mcfarland, w Va, last Friday
evening when their drunken
spree" eventually landed them
IN the Noble county jail.
Travelling over 90 miles an
hour between Belle Valley and
Caldwell, the two West Vir-
ginians eluded Sheriff Conaway
until they failed to make the
turn at the corner of Mill and
Miller streets, near the Ziler
garage.
Before they could get back
on Route 81, Sheriff Conaway
had caught up with the boys and
their spree for that one parti-
cular night was ended in no
uncertain manner.
Shadock and Strickling stop
ped at a service station south of.
Byesville, had their tank filled
with gasoline and then showed
off before the attendant could
put the cap back on the tank.
State patrol from Cambridge
contacted Sheriff Conaway by
radio and the chase was on.
The local official said that
several motorists were endang-
cred that night by the wild spree
and reckless driving from Belle
Valley to Caldwell.
Shadock was returned to
Guernsey county Saturday but
will later be charged with drunk
en- and reckless driving in the
Noble county court.
Strickling was arraigned Sat-
urday morning before Mayor
Homer Johnson and fined $4,000
and costs which amounted to
$86.75. He was unable to pay and
was returned to the Noble county
jail.
The young men had started
drinking early Friday morning,
according to officials, and neith-
er one remembered a thing about
their spree after they had Sob
cred up Saturday morning.
