A TASTE OF GAOL
“TO SEE HOW HE’S HEADING” YOUTH AGAIN IN TROUBLE Cyril George Greenwood was helplessly drunk when Constable Jones arrested him in Wellesley Street a. quarter of an hour before midnight last night. Had that been his only offence he would have been dealt with by Mr. W. R. McKean, S.M., as an ordinary drunk, but there was another charge to answer. On August 27 last year he was placed on probation for three years for theft, and in getting drunk he committed a breach of the terms of his release on probation. “Perhaps it would be as well if he were remanded till Monday,” said Senior Sergeant Edwards, when the youth celebrated the King’s birthday by -being the sole occupant of the dock at the Police Court. “We’ll see what Mr. Campbell has to say about him.” “In addition to that,” Mr. Edwards pointed out, “it will let him see where he is heading if he goes up to gaol in the meantime.”
