They also must be 21 or more, sft 4in or more, and they must not wear spectacles. T neir beat will be an area within a 16-mile 1 radius of Piccadilly Circis and their. patrols will take them to young girls’ haunts, often in lonely spots. A woman police supintendent said: “They are not welfare workers—they can make arrests.”
