One of the offenders was re- ferred to adult traffic court, two had their licenses withheld, one had issuance of a license delayed, one was released to his parents with a reprimand, two were dis- missed and one was handled in another manner. In commenting on the report Christensen said liquor violations seem to be taking the spot light here as well as elsewhere. A He said hard liquor was be- cbming as much of a problem as beer, and that if the trend con- tinues, stricter enforcement mea- sures will have to be taken. He said statements indicating who fta'nished the liquor should be mandatory in all cases. The problem will never be solved, he said, by "slapping the hands" of the minors involve¢ but the sources of the liquor must be closed. F Greeting by PEGGY STEVENS Age 11 Mt.
