CUTE TOMMY SMITH
OVERDID BUSINESS
Permission to STAY Out After Curfew
Didn't Mean He Might
Steal Bicycles.

About 10 days ago the police thought
that Tommy smith. aged ~ years, was
a very good boy. not only a good boy
but wise boy. Now they are convinc-
ed that Tommy may not only be not
wise but certainly is not real good
boy.
The first time the police met Tom
my was when he called at police
headquarters and asked TO see the
chief When ushered into the august
presence. Tommy bashfully asked for
permission 20 be out at night after
the curfew whistle blew He said he
wanted this permission only for two
nights a week, Tuesday and Friday.
His explanation was that he was try
ing to make his own living and at
the same time get an education. and
was attending night school at tho Y.
NJ G.. A.
Arrangements were made BY the
chief with Judge McMaster. and Tom
my soon found himself the proud
possessor OF a card which he could
flaunt in the face Of any prying police
man or probation officer. that Is, on
Tuesday or Friday nights.
But instead Of attending night
school. Tommy was busily engaged in
stealing bicycles. and several missing
wheels" we're traced to him. He was
taken into custody a few days ago
and admitted the shortcoming. and
was released on his promise TO never
do 10 again" He did not keep his
promise and was arrested again this
morning by Motorcycle Patrolman
Dan Grundvig for stealing a bicycle.
He admitted his guilt and was sent
TO the juvenile court.
