And the La Crosse Professional Association (LPPA) wants to get rid of the Street that builds up during the fest. Both proposal and a letter from the LPPA were sent to committees Thursday night by the Common Council. Swanson proposes that the city charge La Crosse Festivals, the cost of overtime paid by the city as a result of the fest, the cost, if any, of extra police personnel brought in Saturday night, and the cost of repair to city property damaged during the fest.

The LPPA, which held a special meeting after 28 patrolmen who were on 3rd Street Friday and Saturday nights petitioned for one, asked the council for its of the fest. Except for saying that the LPPA drafted the letter during an hour-long meeting, LPPA officers declined comment on the meeting. But one patrolman who was at the meeting, when asked what happened, said the patrolmen are that the taxpayers getting the police coverage paying He and two other officers also added that the patrolmen are about their own as well as lack of police protection last Saturday night. Police Chief Ronald C. Wold said Monday that the crowd on 3rd Street had control of the downtown area for several hours Saturday night to the point where a single arrest might have triggered a riot.

Policemen said that during the fest Friday Saturday nights they were struck by revelers and were soaked by beer tossed into the air.

The Common Council, then, without the town chairmen, approved a $2.67 million capital improvements program for next year, $873,350 to be financed with existing funds and $1.80 million to be financed with bonds next year. The vote was 14 to 6, enough to carry bonding legislation when it is considered by the council possibly in December. Before voting, however, the council rejected a proposal by Alderman Lee Foley (8th Ward) to delete funds for improvements to Green Bay Street, and approved a proposal to delete funds to buy old Central. Lee, when the funds for buying delinquent but caught eventually stopped being delinquent, but those who were caught, received from the courts and got the delinquent label, usually went on to more delinquency and often to prisons. The former instructor at the Institute of Criminology, Indiana State University, also disputed the social general assumption that higher salaries, bigger budgets, more and better social workers and lighter caseloads would alleviate the juvenile delinquency problem.

He said agencies should define their target population, noting there are several age classifications the broader term of delinquency. Some sociologists claim they can tell a potential delinquent when he is only two years old, Braithwaite said. He urged the social workers to offer the delinquent something better than he can find in his own peer group, and to strengthen institutional ties. The doctor asked that agents establish procedures to identify delinquency, set their objectives, write a contract that details these objectives, casts and the responsibility of the signators, derive an intervention strategy, and establish a research strategy to determine the effectiveness.
