Probation
 Association Seeks Funds

In an appeal for the support of the National Probation Association, John L. Gaffney and Charles R. Summa, judges of the City Court of Waterbury, stated that the associa ton has been the most active and influential factor in furthering the efficiency of our probation system for both juveniles and adults
 The association attempts to bring to the individual probation officers all available scientific information based upon the results of extensive research work having to do with the proper and most effective approach to the problem of the rehabilitation of first offenders, the judges said.
 Many cases already coming before the courts are showing the conse- quences of the disruption in family life caused by the war. These are apparent both for children and for veterans coming into conflict with the law. Judges Gaffney and Sum- ma said
 Contributions should be sent to Judges John L. Gaffney and Charles R. Summa. City Court, City Hall Checks should be made payable to the National Probation Association

Police Probe False Claims

Waterbury Waterville and Nau- gatuck are listed among the com- munities in Connecticut where al- legged frauds in Unemployment Compensation are being investigat- ed by the state police at the request of the Employment Security Divi- sion of the State Labor Department. An audit of claims filed during 1945 is being conducted by state officials. Sixteen cases of apparent fraud have been detected todate.

your Australian correspondent,
you will discover that the Aus
tralian government really did
find the kangaroos for us and
arranged the trip to Hollywood
for them, as photographs made
at Sydney will attest The only
reason we didn't fly one of them
as We intended to was that Pan
American had not obtained it's
government franchise; and be-
cause we wanted to be sure that
the kangaroos would arrive in
time for production We took no
chances and requested that both
be shipped by boat The Matson
Line accepted them at frst-class
passage rates of 5000 each.
***NoW if you will only recon-
mend good ZOO to whom we
can donate them after they are
through with their work, l shall
be grateful despite your skep-
ticiSm.
1t seems to us that a movie studio
might like to keep a couple of box
ing kangaroos on the payroll, just
to threaten the film critics with.
but we would never make that sug-
gestion Instead, we called Dr..
William Mann, proprietor of the
closest ZOO. If we had called him
sooner we never would have be-
come involved in this, because there
seems really to be dearth of kan
garooS, another wartime shortage
you never thought of. But it is too
late to think of that now.
Gould you use pair of Aus
tralian kangaroos?' we asked. The
question probably seemed sillier to
us than to DR.. Mann, who is accus-
toned to dealing in such merchan-
disc.
I'VE certainly could" he replied,
surprising us right off the chair
we have a fine paddock out here
with no kangaroos. We have wal
labies. but not one kangaroo. We'd
be very glad to get them"
There, Mr.. Cagney and Mr. Leo
nard, is your answer. The Ma
tional Geological Park, operated by
the Smithsonian Institution, is GER
tainly as deserving a ZOO as you
can find. A gift to the ZOO in the
Nations Capital of two kangaroos
captured by the Australian govern
ment would help cement interna-
tional amity. too. we are sure
Boxing kangaroo hands across the
sea. and all that sort of thing.
Just in case you become fond of
the beasts during the filming of
your picture, we hasten to recon-
mend DR.. Mann. He is kind to all
animals. including an elephant that
sprays dirty water on people who
do not feed it, an elderly tiger
named Harry, and most newspaper
people. We are certain that your
kangaroos would have a happy
home.
And think what this could lead
to. In time we might get DR.. Mann
to set up a corral for used actors
which you think ought to be let
out to pasture. But no WallabieS

learn how old Shirley Temple really

Seldom, however, is a drama de-
partment called upon to dispose of
a couple of kangaroos. Kangaroos
probably cannot be disposed of the
way other things are around here,
by tossing them into the Wastebas-
ket. A kangaroo has to have a
home and friends around him in
order to feel at ease in this alien
land. Well. drama department

Cagney Productions, Inc, in Holly

to extraordinary lengths just to get
a couple of kangaroos. Little did
we know.

Now you have me wondering

I can possibly secure to prove

mated to us by the Australian

used in the production of The

for them was genuine rather
than publicity stunt.
