Last July, Olive, Crawford's daughter's bicycle ýwas stolen by another juvenile who -was late appreliended. The damage done to the bicycle by the juvenile thief was so great that It would have cost more to repair the bicycle than to purchase another one. Crawford wanted com- pensation from the juvenile te buy her daugliter another bicycle. Crawford got lier comnpen- sation. 1The youth was given nine montha probation from not only steallng the bicycle, but for other charges as well. As a condition of lis probation, Crawford says, the youth was ordered to psy her daugliter $125 by the time his probation expires. 1"I'm rather disgusted that the boy only got nine montlis probation," Crawford says. Sbe also .aid that she was not pleased witli the nine months repayment ordet, prefering that it b. pald at once and itoe Ilup su. Crawford did say, however, that aIe, feels helpless te the matter and lias no ce.but te accept the court's ruling. '<What e1.. can you do?" sbeaiks.ý Crawford says that'le daugliter worked ail sum-' mer to buy the bicycle and that she will hâve to buy another one in the near future in or der to get to ber volunteer job as a candy stri'pper at tlie Dr. J.O. Rud- dy General Hospital. Crawford lias strong views on juvenile crime. As the mother of eight children she believes tliat r the parents should be responsible for tlieir dhildren's actions.. "The parents sliould be taken to task, " she says. She also pointed out at lier children have liad no run-te with the law. In that respect, she lias been a successful parent and she may have a point about' juvenile justice. . 'I \ ~/ '- Our *pro" stylists know A the latest and greatc'st in hdir care and fashion.
