Officers were still piecing to gether the young vandals' stories but said they had established this much: . Thev twice broke into a priv vate school, for girls Wednesday and one of them, enraged be cause his girl friend had been expelled, set fire to a stack of paper underneath a stairway. Killed in Collision The firemen were killed in a collision as they sped to the fire and a third died of a heart at tack while manning a handpump. Between the two breakins the three youths attacked and knifed a veteran who yelled at them for almost running him down in their convertible. The three youths,- all products of broken homes, were held while police debated what charges to place against them. The case was the latest in an outbreak of juvenile hoodlumism on Chicago's southwest side. Po lice have resorted to curfews and "get tough" policies in an attempt to quell roving bands of young toughs, . including "wolf pack" gangs of girls. Fringe Benefits Aid Recruiting Chicago (U.R) Fringe ben efits have become an important factor in the recruiting of work ers for both government, and pri vate enterprise, according to the Civil Service Assembly. The assembly said American workers regard fringe benefits as an important condition of em ployment. The term applies to a wide variety of rights, privileges and special activities which em ployees consider along with sal ary as attractive features of a job. The Civil Service Assembly, in a special report on the subject, predicted that pressure for . in creased fringe benefits will con tinued as long as individual se curity needs are not completely satisfied.- ' - 1 It said that as soon as nation wide programs are established which provide adequately for the security needs of employers, present fringe benefits will be come obsolete or, new., benefits will be devised. .1 The report said-the disparity between fringe benefits offfered to employees by government and industry is not as great as com monly believed. .". The assembly said the gap is narrowing between vacation policies of government and in dustry. - For years, the assembly said, the vacation policy in most gov ernmental jurisdictions has been regarded as more liberal than in industry. .But recently the fed eral vacation period has been de creased, while the vacation al lowances of many private firms have become more liberal.

(U.R) Mrs. Harvey Lisk decided that this past summer was a good time to visit her 25 "nieces" and ."nep hews" in England, Wales, Nor way, Finland, Austria, Switzer land, Greece, Italy and France. Her trip to Europe was in re sponse to invitations received since the early post-war years of World War II. Mrs. Lisk acquired the foster nieces and nephews through a children's club formed by her daughter, Faith. The' six mem bers of the club callfed them selves the Junior Joy Crafters. In the days of hunger and want in Europe, Mrs. Lisk suggested to the club that they write to girls their own age in foreign lands. Soon letters were pouring back and forth across the ocean. The local girls began sending presents of food and clothing, and collected' items from neigh bors. Mrs. Lisk acted as sponsor, and wrote her own letters, sign ed "Aunt Doris." In a short time, she was being addressed "Aunt Doris" in a dozen different lan guages. The years passed and the origi nal club members grew up, leav ing the organization to younger girls. Mrs. Lisk continued as sponsor, however, and the letters kept flying back and forth across the Atlantic. Then she decided to meet the writers and made the summer trip.
