Buck Childs' home has become
mighty popular ever since he got
that televisiOn set-One of the few
sets in our town, outside of Andy's
Garden Tavern.
Not only do the kids stay home
nights, but the neighbors drop in
to see whatever's being telecast.
And Buck and the missus always
make them welcome, with mellow
glass of beer or ale with cider and
cookies for the youngsters).
While I guess everyone admits
that television still has far to go,
it's not hard to see that it will some

1t moves forward slowly, if at
all, and it holds to the mumbo-
jumbo of dead language. While
the law almost stands still, the
study of mans mind has thrown
new light on his behavior. The
law can scarcely break out of its
old mold, while the study of So
cial causes and effects has over
thrown most of the old bases Of
thought in which the law was
grounded.
The plain truth is that the law
needs t ODE brought up to date
in many ways. The courts should
be freed from the shackles weld
ed so long ago. That can be done
only by a drastic revision of
many laws and legal practices.
Lawyers should be trained in the
study of the human mind and in
the currents that affect this hui
man society.

He Will Return

A man confessed in circuit
court recently that he had tried
to rape a little girl. His record
shows that he has been guilty OF
unnatural sex crimes before. On
agreement Of opposing counsel,
he was given a sentence of four
years in the penitentiary. The
chances are that he will live out
his sentence and will be with us
again. The chances are that he
will commit the same kind of
crime again.
A person who does such acts is
a sex pervert. He is swayed by
strong unnatural forces in his
mind and body. In sense, he is
not to be blamed that freak of
nature made him this way. But
within a community he is dan
gerous as a wild beast or as a
rattlesnake. He will be dangerous
to the end of his life, for his I'M
natural impulses are not dimmed
by the years.
We are not critical of the
commonwealth attorney for the
compromise. We do not know all
the facts and circumstances, but
we know that our juries seem to
give all the benefit of the doubt,
pressed down and running over,
to the accused, Perhaps, the too
short sentence was the best that
could be had. Neither are we
critical of the court for accepting
the recommendation of counsel,
for we believe in the integrity of
Judge Smith. It seems that the
mistake goes DEEPER than the
court processes.
The law stays about O hundred
years behind the times, It's roots
are hedded in the customs ana
thought of thousand years ago,
when a flash of lightning was
taken as a warning to do better.

lin Probe Of ProwIer
AT Hungarian Legation

Thirteenth Precinct Capt. Albert
I. Bullock said today he will ask
for the services of a Hugarian-
speaking detective sergeant to work
on the prowler case at the Hun
garian Legation.
The Hungarian Legation sent a
note which reached the State De-
partment. yesterday, reporting that
a prowler got into the Legation
Sunday night, fired shot and fed
No one was injured.
On the basis of the note, the State
Department notified the Police De-
partment yesterday afternoon and
Acting Police Supt. Floyd A. Tru-
scott called Capt. Bullock, since the
Legation. at 2118 Leroy place NV,
is in the 18th precinct.
Several Linguists on Force.
Capt. Bullock said he sent 1t. A.
B. Clark and Sergt. P. L. Abel to
the Legation, but "they had difficulty
making themselves understood and
didn't get much information"
That's why Capt. Bullock a de-
tective who speaks the language to
find out what happened. The de-
partment, it was explained, has
variety Of linguists among its police
men.
Once a preliminary investigation
is made, Capt. Bullock said, the
police will proceed with their usual
steps in an attempted housebreak-
ing, including an examination of the
legation door lock for jimmy marks.
Acting Chief of Detectives Rob-
ert v. Murray plans to confer with
Inspector Truscott today to see if
the Detective Bureau will enter the
case.
Police Told After Four Days.
The police are known to be some
what aggrieved that they were told
nothing of the incident until four
days after it happened-partioularly
since the Hungarian government has
protested that such thing couldn't
happen in Budapest.
On that score, John G. Florian.
First Secretary of the Legation. said
it was diplomatic practice to notify
the State Department.
A State Department official said
that usually the State Department
is called Immediately when a police
incident occurs at a foreign mission
He said there was nothing to pre-
