$4,000 Project
Will Combat
Child Accidents
BY HAROLD SCHACHERN

To combat juvenile delinquency
and traffic casualties, the DEPART
mont of parks and recreation to-
day announced q longer and
enlarged playground recreation
program, particularly in the area
within the boulevard.
Requests for the stepped-up pro-
gram were made at a meeting Of
department commissioners ny
Eleanor Hutzel. head of the
women'S division of the police de-
partment, representing Police
Commissioner Witherspoon, and
Donald Slutz. director of the De-
troit Traffic Safety Association.
As result, the commission
voted 10 open supervised play
grounds June l. instead of July I.
All 81 of the Fairgrounds inside
the boulevard will be opened TINS
year, instead Of the usual seven.
Cost of the prog am. which viii
be sought from Mayor Jeffrles
and common council. will be S10,-
900, J. j CoRsidine, superintendent
OF parks and recreation, estimated.
ATTRACT CHILDREN So
THE abundance OF women
working in industry makes II
more desirable than ever to keen
children off the street this year."
Slutz told the commission. Eve
are particularly interested in
program which would attract
children ) to g."
Slutz quoted police figures which
show that while this age group
comprises but z per cent of tie
population, il accounts for 20 per
cent Of the pedestrian accidents.
Eve also know that 45 per
cent of child traffic accidents
occur within the boulevard.
whereas II comprises but Is per
cent OF the city's area. In areas
where there are no playground
facilities, we have arranged with
Commissioner Wltherspoon TO
close off whole streets for play
areas, with the permission Of
home owners" Slutz said.
Miss HutZel told the commission
the enlarged program would curb
child delinquency from small
gamins to the zoot suit crowd.
ZOOTS ON WAY OUT
"While on the subject of zoot
suits" she said, II am glad to
report that the fad Is decreasing.
guess zoot suits just aren't
comfortable"
Miss HutZel said increased re-
creational services would espe-
cially help combat girl gangs.
"TwO-thirds Of the members
of a particularly rough gang Of
girls told one If our police
women that their gang activities
were limited 10 Just hanging

ences none Of which they ac-
tually do"
AS solution to the problem of
boys and girls in this age bracket,
Mrs. Walter r. OHair. chairman
of the commission, offered a pro-
gram by Ernest Stengel. park
supervisor.
The program. called Detroit
American Ranger Training Schools,
would organize boys and girls into
military groups.

Washington men have time to con-
slider their help as persons
But Mr.. Slade won't be here all
the time" Beth said, just a little
apprehensive about the prospect
which Helen was making as dull
as possible.
'There'll be plenty of work for
you to do. There are five other
men in his office and you'll have
to work for them. But cheer up,
the hours aren't long. You'll be
through at half past four every
day, and free to do whatever YOU
like at night
Beth did cheer up, remembering
all the things she wanted to see in
Washington. Maybe she could start
after work on Monday. Mean
while the girls had to 60 back to
Helen's apartment, have dinner
and get Beth moved into her new
home, and set for the morning.
She bought an alarm clock at a
drug store and came to hate it in
no time at all.
1t was Friday before she wrote
to Andrea, Friday before she could
face the task of writing white lies
about how much she liked Wash
ington and how exciting her Job
was, because Washington baked
and simmered and gasped under a
late summer heat wave. At the
end of the long, dull days at the
office, filled with tipping lists and
reports that were as impersonal
and meaningless to her as load
of shale in a Chilean mine, Beth
took herself home to a shower,
dressed and ate her dinner, and
then peeled off her clothes again
and tried to read herself to sleep
to prepare for another day.
Too tired, too heat listless to
make any social life for herself,
she tasted her first attack of home
sickness during that first week,
and her dreams were filled with
memories of Judge Mayfield, of the
cid familiar office, of the cool eve
nings in the apartment where Peg
had taken her place.
She'd got to know some of the
girls who lived at her boarding
house, but they all had beaux and
dates, and she was shy about let
ting them know how lonely she
was. Helen Golden and her hus-
band were busy with plans to
move to Maryland, and there was
NO one she knew In Washington, nc
one to talk to.
But nothing of this was in the
letter she wrote to Andrea, sealed
without re-reading it, and slipped

she remembered having read that
there were hundreds of churches
in Washington. There were, as
well, the White House, and monu-
ments and parks, the Potomac and
great gardens, handsome foreign
embassies and the. National gal
lery, all sorts of wonderful things
to be seen. She thought for mo-
nient of the green in Pennington,
the courthouse, the museum and
the new post office, which COM
prised it's sightseeing features, and
found she could think of them with
out inconsistencies. After all, she
hadn't been away a whole day yet.
She opened her eyes and sat up.
stretching to look at the hands on
her watch on the floor beside the
day-bed on which she was sleep
ing in the Goldens' living room.
Tossing back the sheet, she got up
ard went to the window The sun
was hot. but she didn't feel it as
her eyes drank in the new view
The Goldens lived in an apart
ment, but there were trees in the
courtyard and the buildings she
could see were all low ones, none
more than four stories. She'd had
en- idea that Washington would be
filled with skyscrapers, and most
ly treeless. like New York. 1t was
pleasant to find it was not.
Impatient to be dressed and get
out to see more than window
view afforded, she turned to find
her sleepy-eyed hostess standing in
the bedroom doorway.
Have good sleep, BETH"
(They had been calling each other
by first names since their meet
ing)
Beth nodded.
Its really too hot TO sleep.
You've come at bad time of year.
August can be dreadful here, but
you'll love it the rest of the year. -
Helen moved about the tiny
kitchenette, ge t G breakfast.
THAT is, if you love it at all"
Don't you think 1 will?" Beth
asked anxiously a little later as
they fingered over their breakfast
a deux, James having gone to play
golf before either of the girls were
awake.
THAT will depend. Washington
is full of vitality. something doing
all the time, but it's not doing
where the little people are con-
cerned. It's all government. On
the social side, it's very social If
you're in the right circles. Alas.
most of us white-collar workers are

Beth laughed at the rueful ex.
preston on her young hostess
face. "You don't look as if you
missed a social life"
