DETECTIVES INTERcEDE FOR
ARRESTED BOYS

ARRESTED BOYS
Two police sergeants furnished
pleasant diversion in the boys court
by pleading that two boys arrested
for vagrancy be given another
chance.
James Kelly and H. J. Anders
were brought into court by Serg'ts
Schmidt and Shannon. Anders said
he left his home in Wisconsin to
come to his sister in Chicago, but
thought he would rather go his own
way when he got here.
Serg't Shannon said that Kelly had
made a clean breast of some pretty
thieving he had done when he was
hungry and had promised that he
would start over again and he asked
that Kelly be given another chance.
His case was continued until Dec. %.
Serg't Schmidt said he knew moth
ing against Anders and thought he
ought to be let go with a warning
to seek better company and Anders
was discharged.

in. tall, was brought into the boys
court, charged with ''toting a gum
and exhibiting it in a poolroom at
2808 w. North av. But when the
kids" story was finished it was
found that Hickson's theory hadn't
suffered a jolt in Lawrence's case.
The gun had no cartridges. Law
renee was carrying it because he
had it at surprise party before he
was picked up, and Judge Trude de-
cided, after reading the recommended
ton Lawrence got from his last boss.
