TOUGH GLAMOUR GIRLS FOR LONDON POLICE
(11 a.m ) LONDON, April 14. One hundred and thirty-live young women tough enough to hold their own in a fracas and yet attractive enough to don evening clothes and mix inconspicuously in night clubs are being sought in London for the women’s branch of the Metropolitan Police Force.
They must be 21 or more, sft. 4in. or more, without spectacles, educated and British.
Their beat will be the exciting area within a 16-mile radius of Piccadilly Circus and their patrols will take them to young girls’ haunts, often in lonely spots. “They are not welfare workers. They can make arrests,” said the woman police superintendent.
