Juvenile Delinquent Probe Is Continued .. a English Expert Is Called To Testify WASHINGTON (INS)—The senate juvenile delinquency subcommittee called oh an English expert today in its probe of any ixwsible connection between children's television programs and teenage crime. One tvitpesw plated th testify was Miss Enid Love, the British Broadcasting system's specialist' on children's programs. A series of witnesses at opening hearings Monday sought to becalm parental concern over the possibility that juvenile delinquency may be increased by children’s TV' programs showing violence ami crime. NBC vice president Joseph V. Heffernan used the subcommittee’s own figures to indicate that TV actually may be helping cut down juvenile delinquency. He noted that the unit's report last March stated that while crime involving youths jumped 29 percent nationally between 1948 and 1952, the number of juvenile offenders appearing in courts serving populations of lees than 100,000 increased 41 percent. The radio - teipvision executive pointed out that there was an “enormous growth of television in large cities in those years and. because of the television ‘freeze’ . . , virtually no television in communities of less than 100,000, except those near large cities,” Thus, he said,, the picture suggests that, rather than stirring up youthful crime, "television may have been a factor in arresting the growth of jvenile delinquency in areas where television was available to the youth.” Captain Video, the children’s hero who operates in an electronic world of inter-planetory episodes, said the standards of his program are so high he does not even use the, -word “kill.” Pat Meikel, star of the children’s , program, "The Magic Cottage.” warned against a "tendency to shield” youngsters from awareness of crime and violence. She argued that if you “ignore the subject of crime, you have lost the game—vou can’t point out that crime doesn't pay.” Survey shows that 50 percent of all brides today are in the under-20 age group, and predictions are that there’ll be 27 million teen-age brides in 1958.
