ICE WATER TO CURE FLIRTS
Beach Police Adopt Novel Method to
End "Petting Parties"
Atlantic City, July 18. "Petting
parties" along tho bench yesterday
were placed under the ban by strand
censors, who ndopted a novel method to
break up tho spooning wherever they
found it. They called It the "water
cure" nnd it was as effective as in the
Philippines.
Heretofore the beach cops have
slipped up on couples found cuddling
too close along the sands nnd ordered
them to move on. Under orders of
Chief Surgeon Charles Rossert, censors
jesterdny used ice water Instead of
words to break un the Foning.
