What Makes Boys Go Wrong was
told today by Prof. George Walter
Fiske of Oberlin college to the dele

Tenements and flats, which have
supplanted homes.
Too few Fairgrounds parks and re-
creation spaces.
The average policeman, whom the
Doy regards as his foresworn enemy.
The courts. which are stern and
machine-like and seem to the boy to be
trampling him down.
The present day school system,
which is an infeNible one. without spe-
cialization and lacking courses interest
ing to many boys.
Recreation Is unregulated
Boys are exploited by child labor
divorces by parents drive them to

was expressed that Huerta might hold
