BOY TRIES T0 THREATEN Ione Scott, supervisor of the play- ground at Hanscom park, intercepted jwhat might have been a terrible tragedy. This is what she overheard an 8- year-old boy say to a . 10-year-old girl of the playground: “I will tie you to that tree! I will fill my rewolver wiff pepper and den I'll dance around the tree until you ery!” “Why, Lionel, what do you mean by such conversation? Is that the way to tredt & young lady?" asked the super- visor. “Well, she twisted my wrist' just to show how strong she was,” the youngster repiied The facts are that the femininist move- ment has taken hold of the Hanscom park recreation center.
