Some Young People
"The Richardson boys ganged up with two other big families in their buildings and, at various ages, had tried out most of the local youth organisations. Bert Richardson with a suitable set of brothers and mates, was in the Scouts, but they got ejected. Later, at thirteen, he joined a boys’ club for its boxing and football, and belonged on and off till he was sixteen. Then he suddenly dropped out."
