be they are just used to the COR
ners of the alleys. But the at
tendance has been far below ex-

"There may be another reason
the older boys wouldn't let the
kids play on the lot (before it was
a Playground unless they anted
up a nickel"

The trouble with children is
they get set in their own ways.
The Brentwood Citizens Asso-
citation heard of the intractable
children-and the rather sorry
end of an eight-year project-last
