movie" theaters were told.
The newspapers kept the depart
ment store end of it out of print. But
they seized on the movie" theater
angle. Chief Healey backed them
up on this. Yarns were written of
the manner in which the flirts rub
bed knees with the lady patrons of
the movies" But whenever an ar
rest was made in a department store
the newspapers made it appear that
the Irritation and arrest occurred in
the street.
The f1irt squad handed out very
readable stories to the newspapers
for a couple of weeks. But the firt
squad is no more. The gay 10
tharios who track down their game
in the State street department stores
may resume their chase for girls
without interference.
Back of the secret disbanding Of
the firt squad is seen the powerful
hand of the State Street Retail Mer-
chants assn, theSloop department
store trust. Police officials from Act
ing Chief SchUettler down to the
members of the squad won't discuss
the reasons for the wrecking Of the
f1irt chasers' brigade.
But persons close to the police de-
partment head say that the depart
ment stores forced the dropping of
the squad because most of the fiirt-
ing done in the loop was being done
in the State street stores, and the
women and girls, both the shoppers
and the employees, were the victims.
And Is per cent of the arrests made
by the squad were made in depart
ment stores and not in the streets
and in the MOVIES" as the advertis-
g-contrOled press tried to have be-
ieve.
These arrests were the cause of
several small riots in the stores when

when the squad was first organ
ized," said one police official, cit was
not believed they would have to in
wade department stores. The idea
prevailed that most of the trouble
would occur in the movies But
only two days passed before the de-
partment store arrest started to pile
up. Then kicks commenced to come
in.
Finally the chief assigned the
squad to watch out for gamblers,
pickpockets and flirts at the county
fair run by the plutes of the South
Shore Country club. When that was
over the squad members were quiet
