Chicago Boy Wonder.

Thompson.
Chicago Boy Wonder.
. The best traffic cop in the
world is what Chicago police call
Harold Craft, 14-year-old colored
boy, who's a member of Chicago's
Safety Patrol.
This organization, composed en-
tirely of grammar school pupils,
has been saving the lives Of pub
lie school children for over a year.
But TO get back to Harold. He
weighs just seventy-nire pounds
and can scarcely be seen over the
top OF drinking fountain.
Yet with all the grace and
dignity of a full-fledged bluecoat,
he stops trucks and limousines
alike while doing duty on the
avenue near his school.
To see Harold work Is a charm.
"Natural-bern traffic man." is
the way the district superinten-
dent of police speaks of him.
"Just Like Cop"
With a majestic wave OF his
right arm, to which has been at.
fixed the regulation blue Safety
Patrol emblem, Harold holds back
a half-mile Of traffic while some
youngster scoots home across the
street, just as though the matter
were an everyday occurrence to
him.
In fact. Harold has become such
an adept traffic regulator that his
captain has moved him out to n
boulevard post.
II may be justa cop" he says.
But when l put up this here
armand he. indicated the arm
with the blue emblem pinned to. 1t,
autos, they stop. Not one
of them gets by this chicken"
Harold has been serving as
Safety Patrol officer ever since
the Safety Patrol was first or
ganized over a year ago.
Won't Be Captain.
Promotion to the grade Of cap
tain has repeatedly been offered
him because OF his evident fitness
for the work. But Harold just as
often declined, explaining that
he'd much prefer being Just a
plain cop for reasons which he
considered good and sufficient.
II don't Want to be captain"
he said. Because then 10 have
too much figuring and report max
ing to do.
Being a cop is better. likes
to stop these critter cars on tho
boulevard"
Eyes. man, you can tell 'em l
like my job plenty. And when
gets older, you'll see this chicken
in a regular uniform. Stopping
traffic is the best thing l do"
And with a condescending ges-
ture with his law-enshrouded arm,
Harold ever so majestlcally beck
oned to string Of vehicles and
let them pass.
