Court Tokes Over
BethesdaBoy 10, Left
Alone in Home I Week

10-year-old Bethesda boy was taken into GUS
tody of Montgomery County Juvenile Court last week
after he was discovered living alone in his house
while his mother attended to business in New Jersey
for week and his father served active duty at
his Virvinia Navy base.
The parents were due to appear yesterday In
Juvenile Court faced with neglect charges The boy,
meanwhile was placed in foster home
Juvenile Court authorities first heard from
counselor at the boys elementary school June that
the lad was "batchng" it. A police officer went to
the house. on good residential street, and he found
the boy at home. ',.
He also discovered note on table, reading
BE sure to fry the meat" '. r'.
He found an even more surprising thing in the
bathroom: NANCY Ocelot jungle cat that Missed
fercely. '.. t...
Don't worry about me-" the boy told the police
men, I'm not afraid of ghosts" ...
Flabbergasted, the officer called the boys mother
In New Jersey where she had gone to dispose of
some property. "She seemed more worried about
the pet Oceot than about her son." he reported.
The mother told the policeman she couldn't wind
up her affairs in New Jersey before last weekend,
even when she was informed that her son was going
to be placed in foster home until her return
Similarly, the boys father told the officer that
the family talked it all and the son decided that
he'd rather stay at home and go to school than to
accompany his mother.
The mother according to authorities pleaded that
the Oceot not be taken to the countys Animal Shell
ter. Accordingly, the youth was allowed to leave
the animal in bathroom of the home until the mother
and father returned last weekend Before leaving,
the boy left substantial amount of food and water
in the bathroom for the, pet, then closed it.
The father and mother each said their son was
very mature for his age and could take good care
of himself. He has travelled abroad they told police.
The office confirmed their statements about the
boys apparent maturity, saying he was very polite
and seemed quite secure in his parentless home.

Pupil Stabbed IN
Incident Mars
Good Year at
Broone Junior

A Is year old Rockville
boy was in satisfactory con-
dition yesterday at Suburban
Hospital af tie r undergoing
surgery for a stab wound he
received on the next to last
day of school at Broome Jun
ior High.
Police said the wound was in
flicted by a 14-year-old youth
who lives near Potomac as an
outgrowth of an argument over
the victims being hit in the eye
with a paper airplane.
The youth who did the stab
bing had previously been a
model student, school authori-
ties reported, and the victim
had earlier come to the atten.
ton of school disciplinary Off
Gals.
Rockville Police Captain Mar
ion 3. Dayhoff said the police
investigation revealed that the
victim, Larry Haga of Horners
Ia, had apparently been "goad.
ing" the Potomac area boy a
good part of the day before the
brief flare-up as a result of the
airplane incident.
He emphasized that although
the youthful assaiIant was a
Negro both police and school
authorities were convinced that
there was no element of a racial
problem involved in the dispute.
Haga, a school official said,
was hit in the eye early in the
day by a paper airplane and
tried to learn who did it. A boy
in a group at the time accused
the Negro boy of having thrown
1t. A brief scuffle ensued be-
tween the two principals and
school authorities prom p II y
broke is up. Still another boy
later admitted having thrown
the paper airplane.
AS school ended, Haga, 1t was
reported, approached the IA.
year-old as he was boarding a
bus to go home. He later said
he was seeking out the other
boy to shake hands" but the
sta b bling ensued, possibly
through a misunderstanding
over Haga's motives.
No other pupils were involved,
1t was emphasized, and after the
incident the victim walked quiet

Moran's office to report: "I've
been stabbed"
Moran said the incident mar
