Homewood sheriff's police began an investigation yesterday of desecration of graves in Bachelor's Grove cemetery, just south of 143rd street near Midlothian turnpike in Bremen township.

Sheriff's Deputy Howard Vanick discovered that a fire had been built in the cemetery early yesterday. A coffin handle and hinge were found in the ashes. Nearby, in-freshly turned soil, a coffin was found about four inches below the surface. Witnesses told police that youths were digging in the cemetery late Saturday and early Saturday.

The cemetery, which adjoins Bachelor's Grove forest preserve is periodically visited by gangs of high school students from thruout the county, police said.
