Probation Cases

You read IN the newspapers
about probationer or parolee
caught in a holdup. You make
a crack about criminals being
at large.
Edward w. Garrett, chief pro-
baton officer of District Court.
gives his explanation:
1.-THE judges all want pre-ser-
tence Investigations and that is
right. No person should be SEN
fenced before all the facets of his
life are known to the court. Be-
cause we make such thorough re-
ports probably. the courts are
less inclined to give probation.
In the District. 81 per cent of
the defendants are put on proba-
ton. compared to As per cent ma
tionally.
But to meet the judges re-
quests. we have to devote IS per
cent Of our time to pre-sentence
investigations. Even so, 1t aver
ages q month before we report
back to the court.
I'VE should be giving so per
cent-instead Of Is per cent--of
our time to supervising those put
on probation or released on pa
role. We get the Federal pa
rolees, men who have been con-
victed of the most serious crimes.

nothing but pre-sentence inves-

a case load Of 100 each to super

they could devote all their time
to supervision. they would only
be able to average one hour and
= 20 minutes a month to a case.
But they can't even do that. Each
Of these eight gets at least eight
pre-sentence Investigations to do
each month and these investiga-
tions take an average of 10 hours
each.

need a great deal Of 1t. We should

Seventy-one persons, represent
ing twenty-eight high schools
throughout the State of Maryland
and the Morgan Department OF
English, who attended a confer
ence of high school and college
teachers Of English at Morgan
State College last week, agreed
that the need for communication
skills is greater today than ever be-
fore. They concluded that the best
way to meet the challenge is
through a more active understand
ing and cooperation between high
school and college teachers of
English.
The group, however, recognized
certain "vexing problems" which
also hamper the teaching of basic
English skills. These include eX-
cess teacher loads, inadequate and
overcrowded schools, failure Of
citizens to vote funds for schools
and equipment, and the trend
among some educators to ignore
correctness in usage"
Among the speakers were DR..

On the farm of naturalist Earle
Ehrhart practical game conserva-
ton ideas were carried on as
matter of course. Grouse santuaries
were kept inviolate; there was no
overshooting in adjacent areas; the
birds were fed in winter. But in
spite of feeding, and predator con-
troll too, the grouse disappeared
almost overnight.
No signs of epidemic disease nor
of poacherS' snareS could be found;
even the predatorS had VamoOSed.
1t was hard to believe the grouse
had deserted or migrated after the
kind treatment accorded them.
They must be dead. But a search
was made until there was just one
place left to look-a farm that had
been abandoned Is years before.
This farm was surrounded by
fence of cedar posts, around which
a hedgeroW 40 feet wide and Is to
20 feet tall had grown.
Weeds, sweet fern, bayberry
patches, blackberries, raspberries,
suma, cedars, pines, sassafras,
scrub oaks, apple trees, cherry
trees, and many other bird-carried
or windbloWn or animal-planted
trees were growing in the hedge
rOw.Over all like a canopy was a
matted growth of grapes. When
the search party hacked its way
through the outer tangle, grouse,
quail and rabbits faded into the
dense undercover in every direc-
ton.
For days Ehrhart returned to
sit in the snow, covered with a
bedsheet parka, observing the most
intimate details of wildlife behav-
ior. For us, one of his most i'm
portant findings was that grouse
and quail refused to touch grain
scattered inside the canopy. They
fed primarily on apples, raisins
and aromatic shrub leaves.
In that lush environment, all
wildlife had increased far beyond
the normal pre-acre population.
Mice, rabbits and rodents increased
in the dense cover; birds were at
tracted, providing a superabun-
dance Of food for the hawks, owls,
weasels, foxes and bobcats, taking
the pressure of both quail and
grouse.
