Screams and Spike Heels
Said Girls Best Defense
By GAY PAULEY '
New York HP) A woman's
best defense against a mugging
is her scream. Speedy use of
spike heels also helps.
"Yell at the top of your
lungs," said Edna Fitzgerald, on
New York City's force of 249
policewomen for six years.
"This usually frightens the as
sailant and brings help. But so
many women don't even think
of it."
"As for the use of the heel,"
she cotinued, "most muggings
are from behind. Often a girl
can push her foot backward
and scrape a spike down her
assailant's shin. That's real
agony for him, believe me. It
may give the girl a chance to
break free."
Miss Fitzgerald, Deputy Po
lice Commissioner Walter Arm
and I were talking about safety
of a woman in a big city. Parti
cularly In New York, crowded
with women who have moved
here from other parts of the
country.
Before dicing, a nail in a pap
ered wall to hang a picture, slit
the paper and fold down a tab.
When the picture and nail are
removed, the paper can be past
ed back in place.

Plaque Awarding
System Explained
A system for awarding bronze
plaques to companies which con
tribute to the United Medford
Crusade was explained at a re
cent meeting of city and county
businessmen.
Representing the UMC were
Robert Johnson, general chair
man; James Kowan ana i-iliott
Becken.
Plaques will be available to
companies which have 20 or
more permanent employees,
with at least 80 per cent of the
employees contributors and at
least 50 per cent fair share con
tributors. A "fair share Is not
less than one hour's pay per
month for 12 months.
Many organizations have
agreed to incorporate the pay
roll deduction play which will
set side a portion of employees'
paychecks each month for their
UMC contributions.
Each company has been asked
to select a committee of em
ployees to visit UMC board
members and hear the crusade's
procedures and purposes. A col
ored training film has been pre
pared by the crusade speakers'
bureau and will be shown at
company meetings.
The city in recent weeks has
had a wave of teen-age crimes,
from murder to purse-snatch-ings,
giving many of us a case of
nerves. In one Instance, this
week, two young television
actresses were attacked by a
teen-aged youth who brandished
a homemade weapon called a
zip-gun. One of the girls scream
ed, the other kicked and clawed,
and when the youth ran, both
trailed him until they located
a patrolman.
Commissioner Arm Insisted
that such incidents are "spor
adic and isolated" in this city of
eight million people. "It it is
any comfort to the folks back
home, their daughters are as
safe here, as in any other town.
Probably safer," he said.
.But he added that crime Is
on the. Increase nationally; that
felonious assaults, which in
clude muggings, are up every
where. Would training in judo help
protect the weaker sex?
"I doubt it," said policewom
an Fitzgerald, who is sitting
in while the boss, Mrs. Teresa
Melchione, is on vacation. "Un
less a woman has had extensive
training, that Is. A little Judo
knowledge can be a dangerous
thing."
Carry A Police Whistle
She suggested the best protec
tive measures, applicable in any
townr
Don't get friendly with
strangers; be careful in choice
of new friends.
Carry a police whistle in
your purse. Or make one of
those small buzzer alarms part
of you' purse equipment. When
set off, the alarm can be heard
for blocks.
Never hesitate even In a
large city to stop at a house or
apartment building and ask 'to
use a telephone to call police,
if you sense that someone is
following you.
Don't carry large sums of
money. And don't let shoulder
strap bags dangle. Keep hand on
handbag, "else you're an open
invitation to a fcurse snatcher,"
said the policewoman.
Don't travel alone at night.
Pair up with a friend even for
a short walk home from the
bridge club or PTA meeting.
At home, don't open the
front door unless you're sure
who is ringing. Miss Fitzgerald
said a door equipped with safety
"peep hole" and inter lock and
chain should be a routine pre
caution. "It used to be," she said, "that
no woman would be caught out
alone without a big hatpin. May
be we should revive it."
