MARTINSBURG, w. Va
The great telephone stealing
spree is ended. But police still
haven't figured out what the
youngsters were going to do
with all those pay booth
handsetS.
State troopers arrested five
boys and a girl last week end
for stealing the instruments
from pay stations faster than
the Chesapeake a. Potomac

them.
One booth, in the War
Memorial Park, lost six hand
sets.
C&P officials said the only
reason they could think of
for stealing the instruments
would be for use in building
crystal radio sets. If that the
ory is true, it still doesn't ex-
plain what the gang wanted
with that many radios.
