meeting
last
night
by
four
girls
who
have
taken
responsibility
for
getting
the
service
under
way.
They
are
Rosaline
Thaln,
Mary
Addodjc,
Mickey.
Murray
and
Betty
Hamilton.
Their
plan
is
to
organize
a
day
nursery
In
the
Civic
Centre
on
Saturday
mornings,
and
look
after
small
children
while
their
mothers
arc
circulating
through
the
downtown
stores.
They
calculate
that
a
service
which
would
allow
mothers
to
do
their
shopping
without
the
distraction
of
having
to
watch
their
young
children
on
downtown
streets
Is
bound
to
meet
with
success.
The
Council
shared
the
enthusiasm
and
endorsed
the
idea
unanimously.
Rup-Rec
Director
Nell
Ross,
who
Is
adult
advisor
to
the
Teen
Town
council,
told
the
girls
that
space
probably
could
be
found
In
the
Civic
Centre
for
such
a
worthy
project.,
Another
suggestion
adopted
by
the
meeting
was
the
creation
of
a
record
room
In
Civic
Centre
where
Teen
agcrs
could
pause
to
ponder
the
latest
In
song
hits
and
maybe
do
a
bit
of
rug-cutting
if
the
platter
sends
them.
Space
probably
will
be
set
aside
In
the
Teen
age
game
room.
The
financial
report
of
Teen
Town,
read
by
Nell
Ross,
was
adopted
by
the
meeting,
as
was
a
report
from
the

committee

sugyested

W
Hon.
Brooke

told
the

yesterday
that
Canada's
three
permanent
defence
forces
were
42,905
strong
at
the
end
of

and
announced
that

was
"not

greater
than
73
percent
of
the

set
Tor
planning
purposes
a

aso."
The
75
percent
lias,
already
been
reached
in
navy
and
air
forces
so
there
will
be
no
more
enlistments
except
by
specialists.
Recruiting

will
continue.
Mr.
Claxton
said
that
"the

It

Prowler

Back

after

last
.
night,,
sticking
faithfully
to
the
routine
that
has
puzzled
the
city
"police"
in
more
than
a
dozen
instances
in
the
last
month
and
which
has
set-tire
Tttrves

residents
on
edge.
This
time
the
prowler,
believ
ed
by
the
police
to
be
a
crank,
crawled
into
the
residence
of
J.
Carpenter,
615
Fifth
Avenue
East,
through
the
coal
bin
and
performed
the
now
familiar
routine
of
rummaging
through
drawers
and
cupboards.,
then
leaving
without
taking
anything.
The
report
of
the
intrusion
was
turned
in
to
the
city
polke
at
8:10
last
night
by
Mr.
Carpenter
when
h?
returned
home.
It
is
the
first
time
that;police
have
received
an
authentic
report
of
the
prowler's
activity
since
he
visited
the
home
of
Don
Fitch
on
Sixth
Avenue
aiweek
ago.
Actions
of
the
prowler
were
similar
on
that
occasion
and
many
earlier
ones.
Residents
of
the
district
between
Fourth
and
Eighth
Avenues
east
and
west
of
McBrlde
have
been
in
a
state
of
tension
for
more
than
a
month
since
the
series
of
puzzling
house
entries
began.
Theories
as
etrange
as
the
actions
of
the
prowler
himself
have
been
advanced
to
explain
his
illegal
visits.
The
city
police
say
they
are
convinced
that
the
series
of
incidents'
is
the
work
of
one
man
and
they
are
hoping
for
the
break
that
will
reveal
his
Identity.
Residents
of
the
area
hunted
by
the
prowler
fear
that
his
actions,
which
so
far
have
been
merely
annoying,
might
expand
Into
some
more
dangerous
direction
as
he
makes
his
nightly
visits.
"He's
some
screwball
and
there
is
no
telling
what
he
.might
do
next,
commented
one
irate
householder
of
Eighth
Avenue.

reports

there
