BEAR IMPRINT OF THE PAST

(American Ntwi Service.) New York, Sept. 19 Dr. Siegfried Block, physician and sociologist, has just completed a comparative test between one hundred boys of the street

and one hundred freshmen from Columbia in order to get into the psych

ology of "gangs" and his results show

that the boy of the "gang" type hasj better eyesight, has more speed and can estimate time better than the young college boy. On the other hand he has found that the jcollege boy has better hearing, is more accurate, has a better memory and sense of touch. Dr. Block selected the street boys from recognized gangs, bands ,- of young men who prowl the highways at nlgit. getting into mischief and frequently into serious trouble. He selected the same number of freshmen of the same age and then began his human and psychological clinic. Here are some of his conclusions: Of a given number of boys used in

tests the street boys showed twelve percent with abnormal right ears and eight percent with abnormal left ears.

Listening for the footfall of the police probably developed the hearing.

Thirty-two percent of the street boys had tattoo marks, showing evidence of degeneracy. Forty-six percent of the street boys

had one parent at least addicted to strong drink. Columbia freshmen proved themselves superior in memory. . accuracy, hearing and touch. They come of good families and this, the doctor says tells in education.

Two city fathers were in a predicament the ether night. They left the

city hall intending to take the car to their homes but council had been in session later than usual and they were forced to walk. Finally they came to the parting of the ,. ways and were standing on the street corner talking, when a finely dressed young woman

approached. ' i "Are you kentlemen married?" she asked. The councilmen 6miled.' looked at each other and finally stammered the reply that they were. ' '.'Well. continued the youns woman, "I am afraid to go home, because someone has been following me and I wondered if one of you could walk home with me." I Again the councilmen looked at each

"Let's follow her," suggested one

of them and away they went.

But the. young woman had not found the policeman and was walking with

another man. The city fathers watch

great deal of emphasis.

"I wonder if she didn't want to hold us up," finally suggested one of the dads. "I suspect she had it planned

with that man to hold up the one of

us who took her home. Well, we got

off lucky."

Then one of them happened to

think of his valuable gold watch, of his thick wallet, and he proceeded to put them in his sock. After biding all his valuables he took out his pock et knife, held it in his right rand, bid his companion good night and want, to his home, boldly nassinar the mva
