and very conspicuous. AS the cocks
parade back and forth with their
heads thrown back, tails raised and
spread, with wings trailing, the air is
filled with the sound Of Tapping wings
as each Of them takes high leaps into
the air.
Much effort seems to be needed to
get into the air. and sailing at last on
set wings through an earthWard spiral,
the ptarmigan lands almost at his
take-off field While in the air he
broadcasts defiantly to his rivals by
uttering curt, gruf1 notes of challenge.
Upon landing he struts about again,
and especially does he march before
the modest ptarmigan nnaidens, coyly
hidden in the brush. Sad to relate, no
courtship seems to be possible without
battle or two. Feathers are scat
tered on the air, blood is shed and
wounds received and given, until the
stronger fighter wins and walks of
with the ptarmigan damsel.
After the exciting courtship. we'd

PAROLE SYSTEM
ATTACKS CITED
Juvenile Delinquency Off.
ciaI Says Plan Is on
the Defensive.

Describing parole in many places in
the United States as IAN under
financed moral gesture" Winthorp D.
Juvenile Delinquency Commission,
told the Bureau of Rehabilitation at
luncheon meeting yesterday that the
system is on the defensive.
The "barrage of criticism" leveled
at the system in the last four or five
years has made the American people
look with suspicion on parole, and in
many cases become hostile to it, he
said.
Prison a Recent Development.
The adoption of Imprisonment as a
treatment of criminals is a compara-
lively recent innovation, Mr. Lane
pointed out. recalling that until about
$50 years ago. mutilation, Punishment
or death were the common punish
ments meted out to laWbreakers. Thus
imprisonment brought with it the new
problem of what to do with released
criminals. The parole system grew up
as the answer to this problem.
One reason for the present disrepute
of parole. the speaker said, is the
notion that it interferes with the ira
ditional Anglo-SaXon method of de-
termining how long person should
remain in prison. namely through the
decision of legislature and judge"
Divergencies Cited.
Mr.. Lane pointed to the wide diver
eencies in the penalties for the same
crimes as fixed by State Legislatures
as disproving the wisdom of this
notion.
In answer to question by Wilbur
La Roe. chairman of the District
Parole Board, Mr.. Lane criticized as
too drastic" the resolutions passed
by two citizens associations here con-
demning parole for second offenders
AS to parole for sex offenders, he said
that such people probably have Scme
pathological trait which makes re-
habilitation more difficult than the
average case"

Presently the smooth surface was

whispered Sue.

water there in front Of us" replied
Tommy.
Sue and Tommy watched. 1t was
a tiny winged fly. 1t touched
the surface of the water. 1t disap-
peared. One of those little circles
started right there. A little fish. a
minnow, had come up from below
and taken that n.y. They could see
the minnow swimming about, looking
for another little fly. 1t swan close
inshore. There was a sudden move
ment and there sat Frog with just
his head out of water and the tail of
that minnow projecting from his big
mouth. He blinked and gulped and
the tail disappeared. That minnow
would be seen no more.
Nov, where did that fellow come
from so suddenly" demanded Sammy.
Tommy chuckled. He must have
been sitting there all the time, with
just his head, or perhaps no more
than the top of his head with those
bulging eyes, above water and we
didn't see him." said Tommy. THE
minnow ate the fly, and now the Frog
has swallowed the minnow. and-look I!
There comes Billy Mink along the
shore. Don't move"
Sure enough, Billy Mink was coming
along the shore. Very slim and trim
was Billy in his coat of rich dark
brown. He looked what he is. men,
Der of the Weasel family. and his move

too graceful. for they were almost

lightninglike bound into the water
and seized Mr.. Frog. There was a
startling scream from the latter, and
then Billy was once more back on

a good place to eat 1t. Presently he
disappeared.
"It's a regular chain Of death-that
fly caught by the little fish. the FISH
swallowed by the Frog. the Frog eaten
by Billy Mink" whispered Sue with
a little shudder.
That depends on how you look at
it," replied Tommy. Il would call it
chain of life, and that is a much
pleasanter thought. Each died that
the other might have food and live"
That's So" agreed Sue and felt

The courtship of the ptarmigan re-

This alone will interest the bird lover,
for few birds put so much feeling or
action into their courtship as do the
grouse.
BY the time it is warm enough to
shed the white garments of winter,
the ptarmigan is notifying the tribe
he is seeking a mate. He begins to
strut about as If he owned the earth
Perhaps he does, for he is filled with
the idea of conquering all obstacles

After failing to heed q warning to
"stay sober" Joe Poe. 24-year-old
Atlanta resident, was kidnapped by
4 "vigilante committee" taken to
q remote spot on the banks Of
the Chattahoochie River and
severely flogged, the victim re-

Poe told police he had been

He failed to heed the warning, he
said, and last night as he was
seated on the front porch of his
home two cars containing several
men stopped.
The victim said he started run

ged with a blackjack. Then he
was forced into one of the cars, he
said, adding:
''They drove me out Marietta

Mother love supplanted shoot to

granted permission to Mrs. Jn,,a
Putnam, SIS, mother of Homer Rob
bins, 81, giant maniac fugitive, to
enter the woods alone In an at
tempt to bring him out unframed.
Mrs. Putnam, fearful her son
would be slain, asked that she pc
allowed to seek him alone.
Authorities turned to this unusal
means after more than 80 STATE
troopers armed with Sawed-off
shotguns had been unsuccessful
after more than 40 hours, in cap
turing the 215-pound fugitive from
Worcester State Hospital.
Lieut.. James Hughes of the
State police, granted permission
to Mrs. Putnam to seek her son.
She was given three hours to &C
complish her mission.
If unsuccessful, plans were made
for 40 additional State troopers
to join the 80 already on tire
scene to track the fugitive down.
Blood hounds were reported being
brought from Rhode Island to

District Deficit Of 8 or 9 Millions Feared, Thomas Tells Senate
Case Near
CIOSeOm
/. Keene /

The battling Keene mystery
death will definitely be branded
q suicide by Maryland authorities.
That was the unofficial" an.
nouncement Of Investigators today
as they concluded their probe
into Charles F. Keene's disappear
ance from the Norfolk bound
steamer District Of Columbia, and
the subsequent recovery Of his
body-with a bullet in the head
and a weighted brief case tied to
the ,neck-from Chesapeake Bay
eight days ago.
All evidence In the strange
death, along with the official re-
ports Of investigating officers,
will be turned over to States
Attorney F. Kirke Maddrix, Of
Somerset county, late this week.
Maddrix said today he would
not commit himself on what
action, If any, he will take IN the
case, but it was definitely known
that investigators will report to
him that Keene, in their opinion,
took his own life.
Facts revealed exclusively by
The Times last week concerning
Keene's actions prior to his dis
appearance and concerning .iden-
tity of articles found in the brief
case that was attached as a weight
to his body, were verified last
night by local detectives who had
been assigned to check local angles
in the case.
These facts support the suicide
theory.
Police believe Keene deliberate
.ly tried to make his death ap-
pear to be murder.
