Paris Dead End Kids

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1950,

AMETERS F

PARIS, like every large city, has its share of Dead End Kids, only they're called Petits Poulbots, after the artist, Poulbot, who immortalised them in oil years ago. Every summer, Montmartre Park is turned over to them, and the kids do as they please. Here, a gang of them utilises an ornate fountain for a swim- ming hole. Juvenile delinquency in Paris has been kept to a minimum by the

project. (Acme)

TITO PRESS HITS A Buss For The Boss

CASTE SYSTEM

OF

YUGOSLAVS

Belgrade.

WIDE attention is being given here to an article

which appeared in Marshal Tito's press castigating the caste system that has been set up by Yugoslav Communist bosses and their wives and accusing them of disdain for the workers.

The article revealed an aspect of Yugoslav life to which foreign observers have no access: the conduct of Communist officials and their families at luxurious villas on the Dalmatian coast during the summer vacation season. It appeared in the weekly, Knjizeve Novine, the leading literary publication of the Tito regime.

INTERPRETATIONS

In Belgrade, two different in- terpretations were placed on the decision to run ech an article. Yugoslavs with whom this re-, porter talked expressed the following opinions:

The glamour girl of the tennis courts gave up her amateur standing when she signed a fal contract with promoter Riggs in New York to play for his touring troupe of professional tennis players. She'll be the highest paid performer in
