'Strange' Group Meets; Leaves Police Baffled
by Mary Mackie Wiles
THE BOLTON COMMON
Bolton, Massachusetts
Friday, April 26, 1991
Bolton police continue this week to investigate a strange gathering of
"30 to 40 white, middle-class, middle-aged men" that police say took
place on Saturday, April 13 at 6 p.m. in the parking lot of the
International Golf Club (IGC).
Employees at the club called police after talking with members of
the group, who represented themselves to IGC personnel as a group
called "Central Power"; several members of the group wore white
T-shirts emblazoned with that name, club workers said. An IGC
employee told police that when he approached the group, the men
made comments such as "men dominate."
When Bolton officers arrived at the scene, they found the men
"two and three deep in a bull's-eye-like circle." One man was in
the center of the circle; many of the men were smoking cigars and
wearing coonskin caps. According to one of the officers, the men
"looked like your average nine-to-five citizens--neat-looking."
An officer asked the men what they were doing; the man in the center
of the circle replied that they were "waiting for our brother." When
they were told that the IGC management wanted them off the premises,
the man who appeared to be in charge told the group to "meet behind
the school," and the entire group, without protest, left the IGC grounds.
Police were able to get the license plate numbers of several of the
ten vehicles transporting the group; one pickup truck was registered
to a man in a nearby town. Other registrations come from cities and
towns in Easter Massachusetts and New Hampshire. But despite an
ongoing investigation, said Police Chief Warren Wilson on Saturday,
the police "still don't know where the group was from or who they are."
One of the investigating officers described the whole scene as "strange."
He said, "They were well organized and prepared to be kicked off the
property. The man in charge said only one sentence and they all jumped
into pickups and left." In response to the man's command that the
group "meet behind the school," police checked all area schools but
found no sign of the men.
