Criminologists Find Self Respect Works To Halt Delinquency DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 7UI A factor which "insulates" a boy against delinquency hai been dis covered, an Ohio State University research team believes. , The factor: "A young teen ager's belief in himself as a 'good boy'." The findings of a year - long study were reported today before the criminology section of the American Sociological Society at its annual meeting here. The Ohio State study was based on 125 sixth-grade boys who were selected by school teachers as neither delinquent nr expected to become so even though they live in the highest delinquency area of Columbus. Reported Dr. Walter C. Reck less, professor of social adminis tration: "We felt that , if we could de termine what makes a good boy tick, then perhaps we might be able to get somewhere with de linquency prevention." With "Bad Boys'' Earlier research in the field, he noted, has dealt chiefly with the traits and background of "bad boys. A series of self-evaluation tests given to the selected 12-year-olds and interviews with their mothers indicated to the research team that the boys regarded themselves as law-abiding and obHlent. The boys' answers also showed they considered themsel-es as stricter about right and wrong than most people, "that they at tempted to keep out of trouble at all costs and tried to conform to the expectations of their parents, teachers and, others." Parental Direct! The boys bet ved thai parental direction, good companions tnd work are among the things which "keep boys out of trouble," The researchers said the adop tion of such attitudes is important in the "insulation" of the boys. But, they conceded, they have not yet discovered how a boy in a high-delinquency area develops t attitudes which yc- ide the in sulation. They believe the attitudes may be acquired from persons im portant in the boys' lives, such as a mother, relative, priest, settle ment house worke: or teacher. The researchers also found the Adlai Backers See California As Key State CHICAGO. Sept. 7 lit-Adlai Stevenson is figuring on one and perhaps two more political safaris to California because his ad 'isers believe that if he can carry that pivotal state he can win the elec-1 lion ' As one of the Democratic presi dential nominee's top consultants put it: "If e can take California, we're in. I think we can " i The theor) is that if Stevenson j has enough power to carry the ' Golden Bear state, after losing it hy 700,000 votes in 1951, he has enoligh to sweep up sufficient other states to topple President Eisenhower i t November! Among the big stales, Demo cratic strategists like Stevenson's chances in Pennsylvania better than in California. They conceded he might lose his home state, Illinois. The importance Stevenson head quarters attaches to California was underseired by the fact that the nominee took the better part of three days this week just for an aerial expedition to Los Angeles and San Francisco. He flew back to Chicago last night.
