JgaiartiliMMwtt BOYS MOURN LOST PLAYGROUND NOW LAWN FOR MAYORAL HOME Parents Say Ever-Present "Cop" 'Who Shoos Kids Off Is Unneeded About Smith Premises Never Used to Show Up in Neighborhood There was a time when the vacant lot In tho rear of 4118 North Broad street was part of tho domain of boydom, unmolested by the troad of a policeman. But, as Ten nyson predicted, .the old ordor changeth, yielding place to tho new; much to the In dignation of a section of Ifydom and tho parents of tho particular boys. "When Mayor Smith's mother and his two brothers, Joseph and Frederick Smith, moved to 4118 North Broad street several months ago, tho triangular lot, formed by Sixteenth street cutting dlngonally Into Broad street, was transformed from a wasto placo Into a trim-kept lawn, nnd a police man was stationed thero to keep tho shout ing boys away. Before this boyhood calamity, which oc curred simultaneous with tho opening of school, the triangle was nn oasis for Juvenile football players and marble experts, al though artistically It was a desert, barren and unbeautlful. Tho botanical Improve ments, removal of debris nnd planting of grass enhanced tho spot Boys congregated thero as nover before But today, nlthaugh green nnu, in iact, a very pretty nacK yara for tho Smith homo, tho triangle Is au use less nnd barren nn a desert ns far as the boys nro concerned. A burly btue-co.ited pollccmnn Is the reason. Ho nppenrcd ono day and ordered tho boys away. Tho next day ho repented It. Ho nnnearcd every mornlnc nt 9 o'clock and remained until 5 o'clock In tho after noon. Members of the Smith family denied that they had used lnfluenco to have a police man detailed there. It wns also pointed out that tho trlnngle was frequented by "crap shooters on Sundays. But this neighborhood Is skeptical. Be fore tho lnnuentlnl family moved there a pollcotnnn "camo around ns often ns Christ mas," It was said.
