GIRL ATTACKED
 IN FULTON PARK
Many Lead to Better Po- lice Service in All
 Recreation Centers
MOTHER COMPLAINS

The complaint that a 11-year-old girl was attacked by two men near Fulton Park late yesterday after noon will led to additionaN police men being assigned to duty in pub lie parks. The intended victim of Q criminal assault escaped from her assailants and appeared at her home in a badly frightened condi- ton. Her mothers complaint started an unsuccessful police hunt in the vicinity of the park.
 Due to economy measures no park policemen have been placed on duty this year. A, regular pa- trolman visits a park or remains on duty in or near the park, but has no assistant as in former years.
 The serious complaints have now been received as the result of dis turbances in Fulton Park. There Is little, doubt but what the board of police commissioners will stretch Q point for the remainder of the summer and authorize Sup erintendent Joseph Fl. Mclean to assign more policemen.
