Los Angeles AP reports George Outland of the federal transient service in Southern California says the wandering boy issue is less severe than feared. He notes 78 percent of homebound wanderers stay home, with camps aiding those without homes to learn trades and earn a living. About 200 or more boys drift into Los Angeles weekly, peaking at 300 in summer, with 10 000 registered since last December including 1600 from Texas and 500 from Oklahoma. Three main reasons: economic need, troubled homes, and desire for adventure.
