Brooks captured (Continued from page 1) to result in the apprehension of the subject. Stolen payroll checks from Fredericktown were found in the car and were made out to Brooks. The first of three bank robberies that have been attributed to Brooks took place Feb.
17 at Caledonia. Another occurred at Belgrade July 17 and the latest was at Marquand. The loot from the three robberies amounted to about $24,000. The robber escaped through wooded areas in all three cases, each of them being in areas in which Brooks is believed to be quite familiar. He also is recognized as an accomplished outdoorsman.

The rate now is $1.95. The amendment would exempt food and prescription drug from the sales tax. Dismuke said Flat River would lose an estimated $72,000 a year and have to curtail services or find another tax source. The city is obligated to pay streetimprovement bonds at about $65,000 a year until 1983 and has been using sales-tax receipts for that, he added.
"We have the authority to raise the property tax rate to meet that cost," Dismuke said. He added that passage of the amendment could mean layoffs of city personnel and pose a threat to city recreation programs, trash removal and street lights. Council meets tonight The Flat River City Council is due to make a decision Tuesday on a controversial proposed law on alcoholic beverages. Third or final reading of the ordinance is on the agenda of the 7 p.m. council meeting in the Flat River Municipal Court.

Now the limit is one of either per 1,250 population.
