Homer Heath pleaded guilty when arraigned before Judge Hanley Friday afternoon to the ciharge of robbery. He was sentenced, to serve a term of 2 to 14 years in the state reformatory at Jefferson wile. Asked if he had any (statement to make, Heath said that he did not do it, but that Ford, his companion, planned it and did all the work. The court did not take any stock in this claim, however. Ford is still a fugitive, although it was reported here today that he had been seen at Remington. It is quite probable that he will return and get a dose similar to the one administered to Heath.
