The boy says his mother is a jitney driver in Newark and earps $10 weekly. He has brothers in the army and two sisters. His father is dead. Two vears ago, the boy says. he went away with his uncle but that time he was taken back home. Van Der Waod impresses the court officials as a boy with the wanderlust and it is partly borne out by his ad- missions that he was once arrested for running away from home and also that he is a lover of Indian stories. He is in the seventh grade in the Washington street school in Newark His home is at 739 Halsey avenue. Clarence Lund of Berlin found the boy on the Plainville road vesterday and took him to- the molice station. Mr. Lund expressed a willingness to keep the boy. K. OF C.
