Transcript

This is your FBI. This is your FBI. The official broadcast from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigations. The subject of our FBI file armed robbery. It's titled the Campus Crime Wave. Tonight's case from the files of your Federal Bureau of Investigation deals with young criminals of superior intelligence of good family background.

The file shows that because of previous escapades, they had already received some psychiatric help. But it was too little and too late. Psychiatry cannot wipe out overnight years of short-sighted and unintelligent, perettal handling. Psychiatrists themselves know that parents who give their normal children genuine love, rarely rear criminals.

That's a strong statement but a true one. The catch is, of course, in the word genuine. Harsh and unfair discipline or pampering often parade under the name of love. Parents who really give of themselves to their children, who put their children's welfare above their own interests.

Usually fine, they have brought up good citizens. Your FBI cannot stress this fact too often. Tonight's FBI file opens on the campus of the Midwestern University. It is big game week and near a statue of the college's first president, a group of students cluster in front of a makeshift platform.

That team comes out and let them hear you. Let them know you're behind them 100%. This is the year we can do it. This is the year we'll win. We'll be by the date. Those torches started that bonfire.

And as the birds will hear the song that's in every heart, the chalet. A young man and an attractive girl stand on the outskirts of the crowd watching the festivities. What's the joke? Wait a little gasoline can's catch.
