Santa Monica Delinquency Examined at All-Day Meet
Juvenile delinquency trends in Santa Monica during the past 20 years are being examined on campus by SC’s Youth Studies Center, it vvas reported Friday at an all-day conference explaining SC’s role in correctional research.
This is the longest term study of its kind in the nation, said Dr. E. K. Nelson, the center’s program director.

Chief of Police Otto Faulkner of Santa oMnica and Lt. Edgar Hicks, head of the Juvenile Bureau, have complete records, Nelson said.
‘But this is the first time they are being put on electronic computer cards for rapid, thorough research,” he added.
‘This 20-year report of police activity relating to anti-special behavior of youth will represent a unique statistical picture covering a span of years,” Nelson said.
“Much valuable data should result to provide guide lines for future motion programs* relating to improved processing of cases by community agencies,” he said.
Santa Monica was chosen by
SC’s Youth Studies Center as a typical, city in w hich to concentrate its research program on why some youngsters become delinquents and what prevents others from doing so.

Dr. Raymond L. Chuan. director of the SC Engineering Center. left by plane last Friday night on a 12-week trip to Europe for NATO's advisory group for aeronautical research and development.
The young scientist, who designed and built at SC the world’s first hypersonic low I density wind tunnel will describe ■ the space research facility to aeronautical engineers in Eel-I gium. Spain. France, the United Kingdom and Sweden.
Air in the SC tunnel is frozen.
! and the resulting high vacuum draws nitrogen gas across missile models at ten times the speed of sound.
In addition, altitudes of 60 miles above the earth are simu-! lated in the tunnel.
High vacuum tunnels like th:3 are expected to be built all over ; the free world for satellite and space research since the technique has heen proved feasible at SC, Dr. Chuan said.
Although the SC tunnel has only a nine-foot diameter, it is the largest high vacuum installation in the world. Tunnels up to 200 feet in diameter are be-! ing planned by other scientists,
