' About 3,500 delegates, most of them youngsters, are participating In a two-day conference called by Gov. Goodwin Knight and several of them advanced Xhe idea there are two main reasons teen-agers get into trouble: 1. An urge to follow the crowd. 2. A need for recognition. They suggested a job and under standing parents are the best anti dotes. The conference Is on youth par ticipation in community affairs and Gov. Knight opened It with a declaration 97 per cent of tcen aeers stay out of trouble but their reputations are tarnished by the other 3 per cent. He quoted Herman Stark, direc tor of the California Youth Author ity, as calling today's youngsters "a terribly maligned generation . . ..stronger, smarter, more sen sufficient and more constructive than any other generation of teen agers in history." "Some of the good these young people are doing should be direct ed toward helping their colleagues stay out of trouble," the governor declared. Delegates to the conference broke up into 109 panel sessions to discuss;. youth- problems. Here Youth Admits Slaying Child NEW YORK 1H-A pretty 7-year old girl was lured to the roof of a .Bronx apartment house yester day with' a promise of 10 cents and a lollipop and thrown 12 floors to her death.

Mrs. Carroll's husband, Kevin Carroll, 37, a Point Four official in Iran, and Brewster A. Wilson, 35, Portland, Ore., a Near East Foundation official, were killed in the ambush along with two Iran ians accompanying them. Army officials said Dadshah or dered Ahmed Shah to kill the pretty 35-year-old wife because she slowed down the gang's es cape.

Operations Inspector Young explains that by omnimino ihic moiiwvj ihoro n ill now be four or live patrol cars touring the city during the night' hours and the critical daylight . hours, where there were formerly 1 only one or two cars on patrol with two officers in each unit lv half nn narlimlnr nf lh inn in Mr h, -!, , chid anticipated that the new system win insure that every street in town i patrolled at least three times . T t dUrjng every 24 hour period The new system also calls for more thorough patrolling of the business houses throughout the town. Inspector Young points out that patrolling in the future will entail much more than just riding around the town and stopping to t , the suspiciousKl00ng ' . . r persons or situations, He adds that the officers pa trolling as a part of the new pla toon system will be required to stop and check the business house doors and windows at all points along their beats. The door shak- ino cv-gIaiti will onnlu na-l m to the patrols working the after H.jri, lnH ,ri,. i. 1-U'V 'i5 uuuia. Youne sad the svstem now ini"u "V"i i- use provides little supervision fur the patrol officers, and does not properly pattern the patrol units so that areas other than the down town section are properly pa trolled. The downtown section is included as one of the beats in the new system, and the area will be patrolled by car with the offi cer stopping at intervals to make his routine checks of the business houses. The new system also calls for intensifying the patrol of taverns throughout the city, and not just those within the downtown areas. Young said that 35 per cent of the city's drunk arrests have orgi nated at just seven of the down town area taverns. "Available bouncing isn't the purpose for which the police de partment is maintained, he said, "and in the future the beat patrol men should make regular visits to all taverns on their beats. He added that the police can more quickly bring the "drunk" problem in line by visiting all the tiverns and assuring that they are operated properly. "Don't just take the over-imbib ers in hand if you find one who has had a little too much to drink," he emphasized. "It's also vour job to cite the tavern operators if the evidence warrants it. Young cited another shortcoming of the present system when noting that the sergeants on the force are' now doing routine patrol and traffic work in many cases. "Under the new system," he said, "a sergeant will be in charge of each of the eight-hour shifts and except for acting during emer gencies his function will be to su pervise the operation and see that the work is done." Young explained that by shifting to the supervised patrol system with only, one officer in each car. the city can be more efficiently and thoroughly patrolled without adding any officers to the staff. tn addition, the police department will be able to operate on a 40 in stead of a 44-hour week. The inspector, who was hired bv the city council to study the local operation, said the patrol car pat- from other officers and patrol cars when making arrests or conduct-1 ing dangerous investigation which requires more than one officer.

There were 19 motor vehicle acci dent calls, nine of which were local people, 14 other accidents, 18 calls because of illness, and three industrial accidents, all three latter categories being for local people.

The 31-year-old Ray underwent surgery on his left ear here last Jan. 7 in an effort to gain near normal hearing from a bone di sease condition that struck him in childhood. The illness left him 55 per cent deficient in both ears. Ray is now appearing in Phila delphia's Latin Casino, his first appearance since the operation, and without the hearing aid. Now I hear sounds I never really heard before," he said. "And some of the old sounds are different because they are no longer amplified by the aid." Another operation, called a fen estration, is planned on the right ear in about a year, Ray said He is now preparing for i three-month European tour. He formerly lived in Oregon.
