Juvenile court case ends with four year reform school term
A 15 year old, Joe Servey, is sentenced to four years in reform school after confessing to theft and a knife fight with another boy. He also tried to kill himself with a rifle years earlier in Illinois. The session also recalls a baby death case, a girl prizefighter and several other minors in court, including two youths famed for selling papers. The judge warns about neglect and the dangers of bright but wayward youth.
