June 16.—Frevention and suppression of criminality can be brought about ovly through prevention and detec- tion of mental deficiency which lies at the bottom of all crime, Harry Olson, chiet justice of the Chicaxo municipal court said today In the presidential address before the an- nual mecting of the Eugenics Re- search Association. Judge Olson charged that the Amierican . legal profession, preoccu= pied_solely with strict enforcement of the law, had neglected to study criminality and its causes and had thus failed to decrease crime. Ex- i istent law, American be he asserted. is in many eal profession, prooccu- modernized. Judge Olson asserted that society as directly responsible for the ex- tence of defective types and urged that the courts and the community first recognize the defectives and then treat with their special cases. Urging that steps be taken to pre- vent the unrestricted reproduction of the unfit, Judge Olson asserted that race suicide did not lie in limitation of offspring, but in the encourage- ment of the unfit. The most important step to be taken, he added, is “to segregate the delinquents in state-controiled col- onfes, where the protective en- yironment which they need can be created.” RACES, TRICKS, CIRCUS STUNTS VARY PLAYGROUNDS® PROGRAM Races, sleight-of-hand tricks and acro- | batic clowns were among the attractions of a kiddies' circus, held by the patrons of the Montrose Park playgrounds, on the playsrounds yesterday afternoon. The performers, golng through their stunts before an audience of over 400 persons, lacked all of the signs of stage fright and proceeded to keep_the spee- tators amused throughout the perform- ance. One of the features which seemed to furnish the greatest thrill was a race between a “make-up” horse, an automo- bile of miniature size, and a tricycle. Ira Cavanaugh, riding Spark Plug, was the winner. Harvey Carlson and Stanley Whitney furnished the _“foundation” for this novel horse. Walking along, one in front of the other, with a “horse cover- ing” drawn over_them, they formed a prancing steed. Little Lee Jordan was the driver of the racer, while Hamilton Jordan rode the tricycle. A “Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Shea: was put on by Roy Jones and Wil- liam Stanley. Sleight-of-Hand Tricks.

The climax was reached when one of the clowns was supposedly knocked out and had to be carried from the lot. 1t looked as-if the acrobats would have to go home without any_ice cream and cake when it started to rain, but the performers, undaunted, went to thelr homes and scon re- appeared, dressed in bathing suits.
