Because all school lads look much
alike to the average citizen an indig-
nant Norfolk avenue man who ap-
pealed to the police yesterday didn't
receive much satisfaction. The man

boisterous in leaving the high school
and interfered with his property but
because. he admitted that he couldn't
tell one from another the police said
they would be unable to gather in the
guilty parties. The man was given
authority in the future to grab any
offending school boy and hold him
