said that Judge Kathryn Sellers of
the Juvenile Court often sentences"
children to do their playing on NUM-
cipal or school Fairgrounds near their
homes. Directors who ordered children
from their grounds in the face of such
a court order would be liable to con-
tempt proceedings by the court, she
added.
The playground supervisor explained
however, that some boys made them
selves so obnoxious on Fairgrounds,
that the comfort and safety of other
children were menaced, and in such in
stances it had been found advisable TO
eject the offenders, rather than i'm
peril the morale of the children in
general.
IF boys and girls have been sent
OFF of any of our Fairgrounds IL Is be-
cause they warranted this punish
ment," Mrs. Rhodes told The Star.
Our directors are trained especially
for the work of looking after chill
dren. They understand the problems
of the young mind and they are
taught to exercise the patience of
job in dealing with youngsters who
don't want to be dealt with.
mo boy or girl who makes proper
use of the play facilities and abides
by the regulations of the playground
department and obeys the instruc-
tions of the director will be barred
from any of our Fairgrounds.
Concern of Court.
Mrs. Rhodes, apparently, holds to
the view that rowdyism among chill
dren is not a problem with which the
playground director should occupy
her time trying TO solve, but rather
one to be dealt with by the Juvenile
Court and probation authorities.
Probation Officer Sanford, however
contends that the playground should
be, in one respect, a place of correc-
ton, where probationary wards of the
court could be given special attention
by directors with a view to rectifyinG
wayward tendencies through proper
channels of recreation.
"If the Fairgrounds are going to
turn their back on these youngsters
just at a time when they should be
extended a helping hand, what chance
is there of the affronted and shamed
children mending their ways and try
ing to help themselves"

While Field Marshal Andrews of
/ prohibition was winding up his big
task of reorganizing the prohibition
personnel of the country, ready for
announcement probably tomorrow
| morning, 1t developed that the tradi-
tional enemies, the Anti-Saloon League
and the Association Against the Pro-
hibition Amendment, have still con-

strange fashion while waiting the zero
hour of the new Federal drive to en-
force prohibition.
High officials of the Government
denied today that there had been any
undue influence eXerted by the Anti
| Saloon League in the matter of the
new appointments. as had been
charged in the past by the Association
| Against the Prohibition Amendment.
1t was also said that, so far as known,
representatives of the Association
Against the Prohibition Amendment
had not had any conferences with
Government officials regarding the

Oddly enough, both the league and

the new regime of Gen. Lincoln An
drews retired brigadier general Of the
Army. But both are waiting to see
what will happen, and their methods
in the past have widely differed. Each
lambastes the other in frequent pub
lie statements.
There had been fat charges by the
association that the old system of
prohibition had been under the inor-
dinate dominance of the Anti-Saloon

for any statement that the Anti-Sa-
loon League had exercised inordinate
influence over the administration of
prohibition. 1t was further empha-
sized that there had been no trouble
of any kind between the Government
and the Anti-Saloon League. 1t was
known that it had been the practice
of the league to scan the record of
candidates or appointees in the pro-
hibition machine, and report to the
Government if anything Objectionable
was found.
