Two 15-year-old boys were arrested in Levittown, Long Island on charge of smearing half a dozen swastikas on Island Tree Memorial High School, where they are third-year students. They were also charged with desecrating the Roman Catholic Church they both attend and with painting swastikas on the head-stones of a Baptist cemetery in Levittown.
The boys were arrested by detectives who were furnished a list of suspected students by guidance counselors at the high school.
