Local Boys Charged With

From Our Own Correspondent

SEVERAL members of the local “Boys’

Brigade” are to come before the Supreme Court, charged with alleged concerted assault, “with intent,” upon a girl aged twelve.

The offence is alleged to have been committed on the evening of VE-Day, during an assembly at the beach. This,

and other misdemeanors of its members, is a very bad advertisement indeed for the newly-formed Boys’ Brigade, and has caused adverse comment here.
