SlDlllJleS SnOulu stay away from
teen clubs" Judge Mamma said.
Gases before me show their
attendance at club functions
cause considerable aggravation
induced by their drinking,
carrying concealed weapons,
and fighting" he added.
Judge Mamma made his re-
marks after hearing the case of
a l6-year-old Langley Park boy
who shot a youth in the arm
during a teen club dance in the
Adelphi Elementary School on
May 2. Testimony revealed the
boy quit school three months
ago and has since been en-
ployed by the District Govern
ment.
County Detective Frank
Thompson said the wounding
of the 17-year-old in a school
Mushroom was an accident "as
far as can be determined"
The SO caliber pistol with a
malfunctioning cartridge cyl
inder was found by the defend
ent a week earlier on a street
in Langley Park, Mr.. Thomp-
son said. He said the boy took
the gun to his mother, who
ordered him to leave it in a
closet until it could be sent
to the factory for repairs. The
boy could give no reason for
carrying the gun to the dance.
Now that you're out of
school and working you should
stay away from teen clubs.
You'll be nothing but a source
of trouble there" Judge Mamma
said.
He said the teen clubs can
be beneficial, but that Il can
think of nothing more terrify-
ing than having an armed hoo
ligan around youngsters" The
Judge committed the boy to the
State training school for a
psychological examination.
Mrs. Ellen Linson, director
of the Prince Georges Recrea-
ton Department, reached later,
said her Office oversees 81 teen
clubs. She said that, while a
few isolated cases of fighting
at the clubs have been re-
ported, it is not considered a
serious condition.
She said some fights may
occur among teen-agers after
they leave a club function.
Teen club functions are open
only to members and their
guests, who must sign in when
they first appear at an affair,
Mrs. Linson said. If they leave
before it ends, she said, they
must sign out and cannot re-
turn. Those who become be-
havior problems are suspended.
In another case, Judge Mamma
ordered a psychological eXami-
nation for a l5-year-old Col
lege Park boy he termed "a
resl-life Jekyll and Hyde"
County Police Pvts. E. G.
Husk and L. K. Carpenter said
the boy, appearing in court for
breaking into a soft-drink ma
chine for so cents, had been
involved in other night
break-ins.
BY day. the youth has been
active in the Boy Scouts,
church work and received a
scout medal for his activities,
a court worker reported.
He said the parents were ac-
tive in youth and church work.
Judge Mamma called the case
one of the most unusual that
has appeared before him.

you every chance and then you

PRINCESS MARGARET,
in the opinion of this writer,
has every right to become a
bitter, rebellious woman.
With her sister safely in
stalled on the throne of Eng
land beside the man of her
choice. and with two healthy
children to succeed her, 1t
seems as If Margaret could
at least receive the man she
loves for tea without a
nationwide outraged out
burst. -.
If Peter Townsend were not
sane, single, British or blame
less in his divorce, one might
understand the reaction of
the British press. Or if
these were the days of Queen
Victoria, who also had the
man of her choice and so
could afford to adopt a rigid
attitude toward divorce, one
might comprehend. But
these are the times that have
seen a divorced Prime Min
lister Sir Anthony Eden and q
divorced Foreign Minister Sir
Selwyn Lloyd and a new
policy toward permitting di-
vorceeS in the royal encloS-
ure at Ascot.
1t strikes me that the
British press is just filling
space and doing it as SEN
sationally as possible to sell
papers. Margaret must
have put in enough cere-
monial appearances at
charity functions and insti-
tutions in her life for the
sake of the British Empire to
earn her the right to see the
man she longs to see. i.
One wonders if this world of
outer space and Sputniks
would come to an end If she
married him.
