Local Police Force Thinks
ParentalismSet
AsWatchword
By MIKE HIMMLER
"Our aim is to provide sanctuary for students in distress."
This is the guiding philosophy of Ann Arbor's friendly, high-
minded police department, according to Chief of olice Jasper Junkie.
"Parentalism is our watchword," the genial Junkie went on.
"When officers handle cases involving the cleancut youths of our
town's University they take special pains to contribute to tpeir
moral balance."
"We regard the alleviation of students' psychological diffi-
culties as one of our prime functions. The cleanest-cut of youth
encounters these under the O

"Around these basic qualities a

RIOT-Efficient Ann Arbor gendarmes put down a riot outside
of South dorm which was staged early last night by starving
students who had been quartered temporarily in the stables.
The quick action characterizes Chief Junkie's snap outfit which
cracked more skulls last year than any other department of
its size in the county.

"And, I am proud to report,"
Junkie said, with quiet pride,
"that the Economics Bldg. is
standing yet."
BUT THIS was one of those
unusual cases which spices up a
policeman's life, he noted. Rou-
tine cases are the rule and these
are handled with delicacy and
taste.
"We never reveal the name,
if she is a student," Junkie
pointed out.
Turning to less frequent offens-
es, the Police Chief related that
"student drinking habits are oc-
casionally the source of some dis-
turbance."
"In such rare cases we sim-
ply ask the impulsive, cleancut
youths to rest their drinks for a
moment and sign our WCTU
pledge book. Ordinarily the dis-
turbance ceases for as long as
forty minutes."
"The Honor System prevails in
Ann Arbor," he declared.
The interview was cut short at
this point with the entry of two
smartly-attired, high-minded of-
ficers who were helping a psycho-
logically upset, though cleancut,
University youth to acquire a bi-
cycle license.
"Throw the bugger in number
three-the one with the cleancut
mastiff," Junkie snapped.
