PROBATIONERS’

'GLUB" OUTLINED _/

31 Youths to Attend School in Criminal Court Here, Beginning Thursday.

Marion County Criminal Court probationers, 31 of them, are to be given an opportunity to become a self-governing group when a “school of citizenship” begins at 7:30 p. m. next Thursday in Criminal Court.

A. G. Cooley, criminal court probation officer, today announced that the school is to meet in the courtroom each Thursday. The informal "club" is to be composed of youths from 16 to 25 whom Criminal Judge Frank P. Baker has put on probation. The probationers are to report at the Thursday night meetings on

their conduct instead of at the regular Monday report periods. Mr. Cooley said they are being grouped following a decision of Judge Baker to. attempt to reconstruct their lives by giving them an opportunity to meet and hear speakers acquainted with their problems of reformation. Judge Baker and the Rev. Linn Tripp, chief probation. officer, with Mr. Cooley and Robert Skelton, Negro probation officer, worked out plans for the citizenship school.

Anti-Noise Law

Study Reveals

Racket Bans Already on Books

Mayor’s ‘Committee ‘Discovers’ Local Ordinance Prohibiting Steam Whistles, Bells, Yells.

Steps to curb unnecessary noise in Indianapolis were. started today |’ by Mayor Kern’s committee on city ordinances. The committee, headed by Adolph G. Emhardt, began a study of antinoise ordinances now being enforced in New York, Philadelphia, Albany,

N. Y., and Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. Emhardt cited several old ordiances that provide bans against several specific noises and suggested that these could be recodified into one anti-noise law with new provisions. Noises already outlawed include blowing steam whistles within the city limits and unnecessary noise in connection with advertising.

The Indiana Legislature antici--

pated the need for municipal control of noises as far back as 1905, records show. The statutes delegated to city councils the power to regulate or prohibit “ringing of bells, crying: of goods and blowing of steam whistles.” Modern anti-noise ordinances in other cities now include bans against playing of radios loudly late at night, against unnecessary blowing of auto horns between 11 p. m. and 6 a. m.,, and other noises that developed with the advance of science in the machine age. Although no complaints have been made to city officials recently, Mayor Kern said he and other local officials

were interested in keeping pace with|

other cities on anti-noise. laws. Mr. Emhardt said property owners have a remedy within the civil

sections of the law in cases where

factories or - other noise sources cause a depreciation in property values. Courts, he explained, always have protected property rights against - noises, smells and other forms of property devaluation. Any ordinance framed for the city should include provisions for investigation of the source of noises and penalties ‘for violations, Mr. Emhardt, said. Science recognizes noise as a nuisance and experiments have been made to determine the effects of sounds on the. human mind and body. Efficiency at work is affected directly. by noise, according to. Dr. L. Graft Hector, Buffalo University authority who has done considerable research on city noises. . - “Loud noises of high pitch result in irritability and nervousness, whereas low notes upset the digestive - processes,” Dr. Hector stated in_a survey presented to the United States Conference of Mayors. Encouraging results have been obtained in cities ‘where noise abatement. campaigns have been staged, according to Paul :V. Betters, executive director ‘ of ‘the -mayors’ con‘ference. ) First steps: must be taken by the city, according to Mr. Betters, who suggests equipping trash and rubbish vehicles| with rubber tires, lining milk bottle containers with rubber in: addition to limiting excessive horn tooting and other noise-

| making machines.
