HULL SCANDAL
YOUTHS DESECRATE CEMETERY. United Press Association —By Electri Telegraph—Copyright). . LONDON, August 10. In : the midst of .its unrestrained rejoicings at Miss Amy Johnson’s home coming, the town of Hull has been given .an unpleasant advertisement by several other of its youthful citizens. These young people have been tearing up the tombs in. a disused cemetery, and careering round, brandishing human bones and skulls, and chasing girls, and screaming with laughter and mock terror. Many of the skeletons were broken up and scattered about the streets and in the adjaccent streets. Indignant Hull citizens are aghast at the disclosures which have taken place at a period when they want the youth of the city to lie acclaimed throughout the world.
