1938: MORE OF BEAT PATROLMAN STANLEY CHORAZY'S NOTEBOOK


This is a page from officer Stan Chorazy's "beat notebook." The family name of the juvenile has been redacted for obvious reasons. There will be more Charazy page extracts in future posts. Stanley's entries provide a fascinating insight to the city of Trenton as it was in the post depression years. Below is a comment I received from Jim Chorazy.
JIM WROTE:
Patrolman Chorazy was my uncle Stanley Chorazy. Stanley was the oldest of the 5 Chorazy brothers (& 1 sister).. My dad, Joseph, was in the middle & the only one that strayed far from home (to Oregon via the CCCs & later married in Oregon). Dad's sister married and had a son, Joseph R. Fink (b. 1940). Dr. J. R. Fink retires next month as the president of Dominican College of California (San Rafael). Stanley was the only one of the Chorazy brothers who wasn't in the military in WW2. I was in the Army in the Fulda Gap in Germany for the October 1962 Crisis.
