Arrest More Boys
To the two boy highwaymen arrested
by Consta BILE Newell last evening as re-
lated in this mornings Herald, three
more members of the gang were added
today. Lee Smith, arrested by Con"
stable Austin, Robert Traut and Lloyd
Barnes, arrested by Constable Newell.
None Of these boys Is over fifteen
years old and the proper disposition to
make of them is Quite a problem. All
five were taken to the detention home
at Los Angeles today by order of JUS
tices Congdon and Klamroth to await
the end of the holidays declared by
Governor Pardee. When Lee Smith
was captured by Constable Austin to-
Gay he was riding bicycle stolen from
in front of the Y M. G. A. building
two night ago and among other trim
kets in his pockets was a gold watch
belonging to his mother. He promptly
admitted having stolen the wheel, be-
longing to Principal w. II. Holland of
the Garfield school, and of having
,roken into his own home on East Or
inge Grove avenue where he stole the
watch. Barnes is wanted, among other
things, for having stolen Sunset tele-
phone from the house at the foot of the
trail leading up Mount Wilson.
The catalogue of their crimes grows
longer every day. All of the boys at
tended school at the Columbia school
and their teacher says that they are
inveterate readers of trashy dime novel
literature, which she thinks has led
them to the commission of the crimes
charged against them. Nearly all Of
the boys have had experience with the
police before and the fact that they are
on probation does not appear to bother
them. The present escapade is likely
\to be considered by the different child
study circles of the city and steps taken
to Danish the reading matter which is
probably directly responsible for the
situation.
i Miss Sutton Goes Tomorrow
Miss May Sutton, worlds woman
champion tennis player leaves Pasa-
dena tomorrow evening on her way to
England to defend her title.
Since it was decided that she shall
make the trip under the sheltering wing
Of the several country clubs of South
ern California, Miss Sutton has been
putting in several hours each day i'll
careful and conscientious practice on
the tennis court at her fathers home Or
East Mountain street, and to a caller
this afternoon she stated that she be-
lieves that she Is in good condition for
her. She says:
y Il think that play better than I did
(last year. don't mean to be conceited
i'm saying that, but have worked hard
and 1 think that I have improved.
Nhlnk that my back hand strokes are
