YOUTH SKATERS
 TAVERN WINDOW

Police today were on the look out for a youth with a good right arm and a dislike for plate glass windows: This morning. at an early hour. Patrolman Domenic Verrastro discovered that the plate glass window of a tavern at 1904 East Main street had been shat tered. N
 The patrolman, after fnvestiga- tion, decided that the broken win dow was the result of someone with a perverted sense of hun1or hurling a well-directed stone. The window was completely shattered.
