Pe-Schooi Years Said Best Time To
Curb Juvenile Delinquency Tendency)
B LOUIS CkgSBHSi
Washington -flBJ- To rsu
child from Juvcttlkt delin
quency, you much reh him
while he'i very young - long
before he lUrtk to Khool.
Tht U the lessen tocUl
Scientists rmve learned from
the failure of a five-year ex
periment in delinquency pre
vention. The experiment wu con
ducted by Washington's Youth
Council In two elementary
schools located in alum areas
of the city.
It showed that the seeds of
delinquency are sown so deep
ly within some poor and ne
glected children by the time
they reach school age that
preventive measures are vir
tually useless at that point.
Results Convincing
The results are particularly
convincing since that was not
what the project was sup
posed to prove.
Sponsors originally believ
ed that the first year of school
was early enc ugh to identify
and begin trying to help po
tential delinquents.
They picked 37 children
from family settings condu
cive to delinquency, and pro
vided maximum social wel
fare and health services to
those children and their fam
ilies. But at the end of five years,
the incidence of delinquency
among the 3? children was
higlftr than in a .control group
of childreu from similar back
grounds who received no help
at all.
The Youth Council conclud
ed that delinquency preven
tion must begin in the home,
and must concentrate on
strengthening family life so
that children are protected
from demoralizing influences
in their pre-srhool years.
Family Environment
A similar conclusion was
Implicit in research findings
pijplished a few months ago
by Doctors Sheldon and
Eleanor Glueck, husband-and-wlfe
team at Harvard Law
School.
They found fronva study of
1,000 case histories that the
main causative factors in juve
nile delinquency is the kind
of family environment a child
has during his pre -school
years. Overly-harsh discipline
by fathers, lack of supervision
oy moiners, aeniai oz anec
tion by either or both parents,
and an absence of family
"cohesiveness" were pinpoint
ed as the specific home con
ditions which are most likely
to warp a child in his earliest
years and head him toward
eventual delinquency.
If the root causes of delin
quency have been tvaced to a
child's Immediate family rela
tionships In the earliest years
of life, what can society do
about it? Specifically, how
can community agencies reach
a potential delinquent before
he starts school?
The W a s h i n g ton Youth
Council recommended two
things:
First, It urged that the city
act up a central welfare
agency to help "problem fam
ilies" as a whole. The agency
would try to provide all of
the various counseling, health
and welfare services which
particular family needs in
order to become a stable unit.
This approach would be a
radical change from the pre
vailing pattern of welfare
services, in which many so
cial agencies attempt separ
ately to cope with various as
pects of a dependent family's
problems.
'Therapeutic Communities'
Second, the council lecom
mended the establishment of
"therapeutic communities1' in
which seriously disorganized
families could live while their
complex social disorders are
subjected to intensive diag
nosis and treatment, much as
physical illnesses are treated
to a medical clinic.
These centers might be set
up In public housing projects
or in a rural setting. The
council noted that this kind of
LtmAnF hat nrnved hishly
successful In The Netherlands.
Neither of these proposals is
a simple, cheap cure-all for
juvenile delinquency. But the
evidence Is mounting thaUno
such panacea is going to be
found.
It looks as If American
communltlea will have to roll,
up their sleeves and do it the
hard way If they really want
to curb the steady and fright
ening tlse in delinquency.

Washington -(UPD- This is. of
course, the age of science and
technology, and you hear a
lot of talk about the increas
ingly important role in soci
ety of scientists and engi
neers. It gravels both scientists
and engineers, however, to be
lumped together as though
they were identical. They say
there's a difference. Well,
what i.s it? And what is this
"scientific method" which sci
entists claim as their own?
Scientists and engineers
thengelves find it hard to
come up with definitions
which congressional and other
laymen will understand. Bft
they sometimes have fun try
ing. Definition Offered
At a panel on science and
technology conducted by the
house space committee Dr.
Martin Goland, president of
the Southwest Research Insti
tute, offered a definition of
the scientific method which
he credited to "a very cynical
mend ol mine." This is it:
"You take a chemist and
you sit him down one evening
and you take three ounces of
good bourbon whiskey and a

The third night you do the

The fourth night he sits down

All observations having

(Note: It must have tpn

identified member of the audi
ence, because "who could get
drunk on only three ounces of
bourbon, gin, or brandy?")
Dr. H. Guyford Stever of
the Massachusetts Institute of
Technoloy (MIT) tried to
clear up confusion among
committee members over the
difference between scientists
and engineers.

We take one of each, un

We tell these young fellows
that the object of the game is
to kiss the girl.
"However, there are certain
rules. At every second they
are to go half of the remaining
way to the girl. That is, going
the first half across the room
and then a quarter, and so
on.
"Scientists are always very
bright and quick on their
feet. The scientists gets his
mathematics out and figures
that going only half way each

"So he says, 'I will never
get there.'
"The engineer is a little
slower. But he says, 'Never
mind, I will get close
enough'."
(Note: Dr. Stever identified
himself as an engineer.)

Many Ways With
Crisp Freti Celery
Many a good dinner starts
with ice-crisp celery or finds
celery in a relish dish. Celery
gets stuffed with lovely rich
well-seasoned mixtures. It
goes into salads and meat and
poultry stuffings. It gets car
ried to school and to work.
It gets cooked.
No wonder Americans
crunch away almost l'.-i bil
lion pounds of this zesty veg
etable in the course of a year.
Stuffed Celery: One of
our areas popular ways with
celery stuffing is to combine
two three - ounce) packages
cream cheese and two table
spoons dairy sour cream.
Blend In three tablespoons
finely chopped chives, one-
eighth teaspoon salt and one-
sixteenth teaspoon garlic pow
der. Fill crisp celery stalks
neatly with a knife or press
cheese mixture through a
cake decorators' tube. Serve
chilled as an appetizer or
salad accompaniment. Will
fill about 18 celery stalks
which you'll want to cut into
three to four inch lengths.
Treat the family to stuffed
celery more often. Fine nutri
