Dress-Clad 'Girl 9
Found to Be Boy
After Question ing
A new -girl" at the YWCA
Friday aroused suspicions that
She was a runaway by telling
conflicting stories about recent
travels.
After more than. 4 hours of
questioning and investigation by
YWCA officials, police, city and
county matrons and a physician,
"she" was found io be a boy,
early Saturday.
The lip-sticked, ' ; flat-chested
"girl" in 3-inch heels was identi
fied as an escapee from McLaren
School for boys. He was wearing
a dark gray dress of a soft ma
terial.'siik stockings with several
runs, white strapped shoes with
high heels,, a - single strand of
pearls, thick lipstick and vivid
fingernails polish, police said.:
Short Hair .
His hair, although mostly cov
ered by a bandana, was seen to
be short,', but as he had re pre-'
sented his age as 46 this was not
considered highly unusual. Ac
tually he was found to be 14. Of-1
ficers, said they did not knowj
where he got the clothes and
make-up. -. f
First suspected of being a runa
way, it was later thought that he
was a mental case. The suspicion
U . . l j i
mai lie was ikh a gin grew aur-1
ing the- night. However,- he was !
treated like a "lady'' as long as:
the possibility remained that he
Wight be one. I - -
During the course of questioning,'!
a Salem officer', tentatively idea
tilled him as a boy who 'evaded
him in a downtown alley Friday
morning when he attempted to
speak to him on the possibility
that he was a rupaway. Apparent
ly the girl's clothing was obtained,
after that time. -
No Address
A check with Salt Lake City of
ficials also revealed that the home
address he had given at the VWCA
was fictitious.
The physical examination was
given in the juvenile section of
county jail early Saturday morn
ing. McLaren officials took custody
of the boy later' Saturday. They
said he had escaped Thursday in
Salem from the custody of a
counselor.

French Police,
Troops Clash
In New Riots
ROUEN. France If! New rtot
ing broke out Saturday night
around the Rouen barracks from
which draftees had refused to
leave for North Africa.
A crowd estimated at more than
1,000 battled with ormed riot police
and tried to set fire to a wooden
barricade closing a breach in the
barracks wall.
Riot police, who now occupy the
barracks, had to duck their heads
behind the walls as stones hurtled
at them: They retaliated by hurling
stones back and throwing tear-gas
grenades.
A group of youths poured gaso
line on the wooden barricade,
masking a hole in the wall made
by an army truck Friday night,
and tried to set it afire. Ten truck
loads of riot police were rushed
to. the scene.
Bottles filled with gasoline were
thrown at the barracks wall. Ihe
police drove back the demonstra
tors,fearing that the flaming bot
tles might set off a nearby muni
tions store.
The' new outbreak, the third in
Rouen in 48 hours, was intended to
protest the enforced sending of
more troops to North Africa, where
the French are fighting nationalist
rebels in both Algeria and Moroc
co. It was also a demonstration
against police occupation of the)
barracks. i
Order was restored in Rouen late
Saturday night. Strong forces of
police remained in occupation of
the barracks and patrolled the sur
rounding streets. '.-''' .

1st Contestant
For $100,000
I
NEW YORK (if) A Brooklyn
detective was the first contestant
Saturday night on a new television
quiz program. "$100,000 Big Sur
prise." He won $10,000 and may
try for more next week.
Sgt. Barney Arluck was selected
to appear on the NBC show be
cause of his role in the freeing
of a jnan wrongfully imprisoned
on a murder charge. Contestants
are chosen only if they have per
formed a "worthy, deed," those in
charge of the show said. j
All .questions asked of contest-
ants pertain to their professions, !
hobbies and present or past activi-!
ties.' j
Starting with $1, Arluck made
his way through, the fourth, $1,000
question, by singing correctly the
tirst two lines of his high school's'
anthem. I
He missed the second part of ,
the $10,000 question. However, Mrs. j
Viola Meyers, of Pottstown, Pa.,
who was in the audience, was
asked to help Arluck go on with
the quiz by answering a general
question. j
Mrs. Meyers answered correctly j
that Earl Warren was Thomas E.
Dewey's running mate in the 1948
election. j
She will appear again on next
week's show. Should Arluck win '
$100,000, her share would be $10,
000.
