A complaint made yesterday to Policemen Jack lichens about the boys who disport themselves in the river off the docks near the bridge. resulted in a particularly humorous situation. "Boys will be boys." says POliceman‘Roberte. but -wlth the. complaint made fficiaiiy he was forced to put some kind of a stop to the aquatic pleasures of the young- sters. The obvious method was to make away with a few articles of clothing left by the group on the dock near tho raiTroed bridge, but the culprits escaped in time to dis- play themselves fully dressed on the street without the distpstcfui ro- courso to barrels. .The objection made ‘ahout the swimmers is not that they swim about the railroad bridge. which is far enough from the main bridge to defy anything short of field glues”.
