WHY DID THEY KILL?

These were nice kids, model kids. They didn't wear leather jackets and roam the streets in "wolf-packs"; they didn't steal and mug for dope.

For kids, they were well-mannered and quiet. They were attractive and nicely dressed. You'd have welcomed them as next-door neighbours.

Yet . . . 

One Raped.

One Murdered.

One Killed By Fire.

Delinquent - Morton Cooper

The startling story of a teen-age gang

CHRISTIE WAS CAUGHT

between two worlds. In the world of easy money, excitement, kicks, Christie's pals were neighbourhood punks like:

MODO - who lived for violence.

PEG - who was everybody's girl.

VINCE - who didn't want to be called "chicken."

But there was another world, too- the world of:

VICTOR - who played square with everyone.

Mr. CROSSMAN - who tried to show Christie that growing up could be decent - and fun.

Gang Rumble - Edward Ronns
