'RUNAWAY SEASON' OPENS:
MOST OF THEM ARE GIRLS
Twe Mere Detectives Assigned te

The "open season" for runaways,
most of them girls from small towns,

Charles Scharr, head of the runaway
squad of the police bureau, which was
strengthened tedarVhen Detective. An.
drew J. Scanlln and Geerge R. Spanglcr
were detailed te it. Captain Souder
assigned me men.
The squad picked up two runaways
yesterday nnd four Monday. At that
rate, the 1022 total will far exceed last
year's record, when 162 runaways, the
majority young girls, were discovered
In this city.
Scharr has n theory that a desire for
fine clothing nnd what they believe la
the excitement of life In a big city are
the motives that cause many te slip
the home ties.

In many cajscs the runaways linger
about the stations where their forlorn
appearance marks them. A few M1I1
and sympathetic questions frequently
brings out the runaway's story. Then
comes the trip te City Hall, where a
matron takes charge. Parents are no
tified and the runaway held until n
