$174,576 Requested For Study Plan Drawn Up For Lane Juvenile Delinquency Survey By SAM FREAR or the Rei tstertjuard An application to the fed eral government for $174, 576 to finance a study of juvenile delinquency in Lane County was filed last week. The research proposal was drawn up by Kenneth Polk, as sistant professor of sociology at the University of Oregon and sponsored by the recently form ed Lane County Youth Study Board. This organization is composed of community leaders originally called together a year ago by Circuit Court Judge William S. Fort to discuss means of a com munity attack upon juvenile de linquency. Now that there is a possibil ity described as "encourag ing" by leaders of the study board of federal funds to help Eugene study the commun ity approach to the problem, Fort's group decided to organize formally and is now taking the initial steps toward incorpora tion. Nicholson Elected President The Rev. Wesley Nicholson was elected the first president of the Youth Study Board, and heads a 15-man executive com mittee. If Polk's proposed research plan is approved, it would begin for an 18-month period on June 1. Polk's proposal emphasized the rural-small city aspect of Lane County, and the fact that the University of Oregon pro vides staff to do research work, and the interest shown by the members of the Youth Study Board. The requested grant would come from $30 million made available by Congress under the Delinquency and Youth Of fenses Control Act 12 U.S. Communities About 12 communities across the United States will be select ed for research grants, and of these, about five may be chosen to demonstrate a project, based on the research, to control ju venile delinquency. This demonstration grant could total up to $3 million. The President's Committee on Juvenile Delinquency and Youth Crime has scheduled a meeting In Washington during the first week of June, and will make recommendations regarding re search grants.

Oregon law makes it unlawful to possess slot machines. Allen explained that the in vestigation to uncover slot ma chine operations in the county involves a variety of methods, much of the work done through third parties and over the tele phone. The seizure early Monday morning came after a transfer of the machines had been ar ranged by the sheriff's office through undercover methods. A telephone call came through unexpectedly late at night indi cating where the machines had been placed and could be picked up. The deputies went to the place indicated and found the machines. A stake-out was put on the area but no one appeared. When it became apparent that no one was coming the mach ines were tagged as evidence and taken into custody. No ar rests were made in connection with the seizure. The machines were of a con ventional type operated manu ally. They work with a variety of denominations of coins. The machines were all locked and the sheriff's office planned to unlock them Monday to deter mine how much money they contained. ITS HARD SOMETIMES j TO BEAR AIL THIS ) iV RESPONSIBILITV... y Ki.
