Boys' Clubs
vention Program
have been turned pretty definitely
from the gutter.
A club has not been formed for
girls yet, but they have been so in-
sistent that classes were opened to
them.
Tooley and several assistants are
kept busy directing four brass bands,
three orchestras, four singing clubs,
;four harmonica bands and one Ha-
waiian orchestra.
Every night except Sundays, groups
practice, experiment and perfect their
technique. They are directed by paid
instructors who understand child psy-
chology as well as music.
The youngsters give concerts at-
tended by hundreds of Chicago cit-
izens.
"It gives them a goal," says Too-
ley. "They are the driving force. We
merely guide them. They buy their
own instruments, at ten cents a week,
through our underwriting with deal-
ers, or they work for them.
"We never sing a song to the words
'We don't want,' or 'I can't.' All our
expressions are 'we will,' 'I can.'
Eventually the positive, constructive
viewpoint on life is instilled and the
boys feel they can do anything if it is
right."
Police Commissioner James P. All-
man approves the project.
"If it were not for the splendid
work being done by the Chicago Boys
clubs," he asserts, "there would be a
much greater amount of crime in the
city than is now the case."
