a well-fed audience to sleep. Gary Rudy's had just the opposite effect. He disclosed that the mayor, chief of police.

N.M in 1979 Their motto is "Informa lion stops crime’’ IT'S A FACT that 85 per cent of major crimes are solved with the help of or' dinary citizens Crimestoppers are effective because they allow informants to remain annonymous if they so desire They have set up a number. 465-2800 If the caller prefers to remain unidentified his informa tion is filed under the number, for instance. A-23. which he is immediately assigned and told No per son ever has access to his name If the reported crime is outside the confines of Middle TW'p . police in the jurisdicational area in which the alleged infrac tion has occurred are immediately informed, but by number only. If. an indictment results, a committee decides how much the tip was worth. A-23's number is published and the reward money is placed in any hidden spot A-23 requests Rewards are supplied by any business or private citizen making donations to Crimestop pers Donations are all tax free and recipients may or may not declare them on their lax returns as their conscience dictates Atlantic County had the first Crimesloppers pro gram locally During the first two years they recovered 5.6 million dollars in stofen property and narcotics, because they solved so many crimes they almost went bankrupt and casinos were so grateful they con tributed large sums to the awards fund to keep them viable One thousand, one hundred and three defendants were found guilty in one year out of 1,108 Crimesloppers related offenses For this reason Gary Rudy, along with S.H. Police Chief Bill Donohue, hopes that this will become a county-wide program rather than one adopted and supported by municipalities Applause from C. of C members in dicated they agreed wholeheartedly • • » Those of you who missed Councilwoman Rachel Sloan's (she has just an nounced her candidacy for Mayor) Assoc, of the Per forming Arts and the Women's Civic Club presentation of the Lewis Shearer Chorale last Sunday missed the most professional group of selfdesignated amateur performers we have ever had the delight of hearing The group, under the direction of l^wls Shearer, provided a show comparable to a Broadway musical Comprising 100 trained voices, the Chorale held a large audience enthnriM m it sang
