rs that cross between your eyes
the symbol of some club or organi-
zation?" Judge Thompson asked the
boy. The youngster said he just put
the cross there for fun and never
gave good explanation for his
choice of clothing or hair cut.
His parents, also summoned to
court, declared that they will not
permit their son to dress in such a
ridiculous manner in the future and
promised to see that he attends
school and stays out of trouble.
The same session of juvenile
court was enlivened by the appear
ance of another Brawley Mexican
boy. also Is years of age and also
involved in the trouble" in Braw-
ley theater.
This boys parents already had
made him get a regular haircut,
bought him the same type of cloth
ing that other boys wear. When he
first appeared in court the small
cross tattooed between his eyes was
covered with white patch. This
boy said he put the cross on his lace
himself, using India ink. His father
said the boys appearance was Just
boyish foolishnesS' and he would
see that he went to school and
dressed like other boys.
CITES SHOES
There is something little mere
than foolish about the boys who
dress so much like the zoot suffers
or Pachucos," Judge Thompson
said. That boy paid shoe shop
Sc to have thcec shoes fitted with
those thick heelc and soles.
Il am going 10 call these three
round shoes to the attention of the
Office of Price Administration.
Those shoes have leather soles Two
inches thick. There is no use CT
other people doing without shoes
they need when these boys waste
leather on shoes that make them
ridiculous and may get them into
serious trouble. These boys stand
ing in the aisle of theater, talking,
and making a disturbance Is only
small part of the trouble they get
into when the identify themselves
with lawless groups. 1t looks simple
at the start, but boys must be made
TO realize what their actions may
lead to-"
Parents of both youngsters were
eager to cooperate and follow the
rules laid down by the court, they
announced. Both boys also promised
to be good and dress. in normal
