City Civic Crackdown Targets Pool Rooms and Beer Gardens
Police launch a crusade against habitual loitering in pool rooms and certain beer gardens. Dozens were arrested last night in raids on Alamo plaza, Houston, and East Commerce streets. Juvenile offenders, aged 15 to 25, faced vagrancy charges in Judge Buckley’s court with fines from five to ten dollars and warnings of stiffer penalties on repeat offense. Authorities blame parents for allowing frequent visits and pledge tighter enforcement, especially toward minors.
