youth bureau By AN Herald Staff Caught a stolen pair of earrings in your bog If you re under 16 what happens to you next Is decided by Tom Johnson a and youth officer with Holt on regional police In Georgetown There no cut and dried rule Each case Involving Juveniles comes across this desk and I have the final say on It Johnson said accentuating his authority with a light thump on the desk case has to be looked at Individually with the child and parents attitudes play a big pari In Mr Johnson decision It very different from the policing I used to he admitted Transferred to the bureau in January he has a 16year record In police work including work In the criminal investigations bureau I find it frustrating at times but I really like working with kids Sl Johnson said He has three children him self 15 13 and nine years old POSITIVE Despite the fact he rarely sees other than kids In trouble with the low Sgt Johnson holds a positive about young people The majority of kids we have today arc pretty good in my nlon he said It a very small minority who really cause the human cry that you hear about juveniles Although he has three file drawers crammed with files on juveniles most files only piece of Sgt Johnson said are few do young people get involved In crime The Johnson I nk the biggest reason is peer pressure say a situation where you yet five individuals who arc really good kids and one of them will say I dare to do this Sometimes it s Ike putt a match to gaso line he said the HERALD Sir scenes like this may not be as noticeable now that It poller have decided enforce a ID p curfew on loitering In town for juveniles The move is aimed at reducing vandalism Herald photo by Gerry Timber Man have both parents working that can be factor day of the moth at me as common an I children have a lot more free dom now Thi come me from school and the parents There arc a couple hours where they feel They not here to watch so maybe 1 sip out and do tins Johns It seems to be free time that causes problems It What arc we going to do there nothing to do for the kids PLENTY As a parent Sgt Johnson knows there plenty to keep young mmdh and bodies I get so upset when I heir here nothing to do There are boy scouts cubs church groups army cadets baseball socecr school spirts teams all kinds of things available Johnson said Both his daughters take swimming lessons and his son is In rep hockey vitlcs parental supervision young people can end up tang I with the law and coming Into contact with Johnson Shoplifting is the biggest problem in Hilton lllls and si As of

drinking under age charges arc down lo 13 as of June end and were in 1962 Last year charges of assault were laid and so fur this year IB have been laid Sgt John uniformed officers are learning to deal with Juveniles themselves Instead of passing the buck the youth bureau officer They may lay the bring their recommendations to Johnson If It a serious offence the sargcant gets Involved with it and If charges arc to be laid he prepares the court documents for Juvenile court which Is an arm of Milton My philosophy is that you re entitled lo a mistake and you don make the same mistake twice Johnson said explaining his preference for dealing with juveniles outside ihe courtroom If there are other ways without going through the court 1 11 do It lhat way Parental attitude makes a difference In how Johnson deals with a juvenile offender In most instances parents are very supportive he said However occasional ly there 11 be the parent who becomes of his child and refuses to believe his Johnny could break the law Then John son not only has to convince Ihe child to confess but also the parents lhat their child really did It During the encounter with the child and the parents Sgt Johnson ma find suitable to refer child to Ihe Tom Johnson Halton juvenile divers on program A program initiated this year it is designed to impress upon juveniles that they are responsible for their actions The program puts young people to work for the community or for the person they robbed or vandalized In this way they make resit tut Ion The courts lean ly on such programs of community service as With parental support a voluntary supervisory plan may be set up for the young involving curfews during the week and reporting to the police station Just like being on probation Call before its too late To
