o CHILDREN IN COURT By Judge Malcolm Hatfield The tragedy of a boy with too much idle time on his hands was revealed in court today when a college freshman was convicted of a reckless driving charge in which several persons were injured. Some ten or twelve years ago the son of the late Calvin Coolidge was approached at his work in a tobacco tobac-co shed by a young man who casually casu-ally remarked "Believe me, if I had a car and my father was President of the United States you wouldn't catch me doing this kind of work." Young Coolidge is reported to have looked up and replied, "You would if Calvin Coolidge was your father." If there were more parents like the late President we would have fewer boys with high powered auto-! auto-! mobiles and large expense accounts seeking excitement and thrills on heavily congested highways.
