To check on these quotes made at a University of Utah Journalism Department press conference recently. Miss Lind began a study of the problem by looking into the operation of the Salt Lake County Detention Center. Her story follows. Photographs by Kenneth W. Cox. Lisa stands at a crossroad. Small, blonde, attractive. Lisa A. (the name is fictitious) has been placed in the Salt Lake Count v Detention Center, 3531 South 600 West. She is greeted by a friendly receptionist. Phil Jimincz, who fills the admission forms indicating her background, her parents, and other family members religion, etc. Then she meets Ann Parr, girls' section leader, who takes Lisa to the shower mom and detention provides special clothing. Miss Parr takes Lisa down the long, main hall to Section A, the girls' section, where she assigns Lisa to a room where she is to spend the ni(,ht. Her story is one of school trudefiancy, ungovernablencss. ance, petty 'theft climaxed by a five-daunexplained absence from home. These have been a frustrating five days for Lisa since she ran away from home following a quarrel with her mother. She stayed with a friend, not wanting to return home and yet On wanting to very much. Thursday, she left her friend's home and walked the streets of the city alone and lonely. At a department store, she was picked up by police for petty theft and brought to the Detention Center. Why did she shoplift? "Because I wanted to," was her answer. "What else was there to do?" Lisa's case is not unusual. Delinquency in girls is skyrocketing. "Four girls to every 10 boys are brought to the Detention Center," reports Claude Dean, head social worker at the home. "Ten years ago, the number was one in 10." crafts projects, a tv room, a Lisa is not a statistic.

Deten- venile Court. Lisa returns to the section and fixes hrr hair before she goes to court. The Salt Lake County Juvenile Court adjoins the Detention Center. It is a walk of a few hundred steps. Following the call over the loud speaker for her and other youngsters, Lisa leaves section A, goes up the long main hall, past the brightly furnished administration offices, past the admissions desk, and lines up with the other boys and girls to go with Mr Dean over to the court. At the court, she is placed In a hold room while she awaits her court appearance. In court, the judge reviews her case, talks to Lisa and to her mother and decides that because of Lisa's home situa- tion, she will not be released at this time, but will remain at the Center for further counseling, and study of the home situation by a probation officer of the court. So Lisa will remain in the Detention home. Surprising to Lisa she finds that it provides many constructive activities and is staffed by capable, understanding people, who are ''firm but loving fathers and mothers," and who have, over the years, developed instincts for determining the hidden causes of adolescent misbehaviour and some ways to reach (Continued on Page 2) 1' if 1 1 II I tion is used only for those children who are alleged to have committed delinquent acts and for whom secure custody is required for their own or the community's protection, or for those children who cannot safely be left in the custody of Handing admission form to a Salt Lake police officer Is Phil Jiminei, receptionist.
