Jack McGaw gives an editorial report from Queen's Park, Toronto, on the controversy caused by a grand jury criticism of the Andrew Mercer Ontario Reformatory for Females. Ontario Minister of Reform Institutions Allan Grossman suggests, in a clip, that the grand jury was inexperienced. Reporter Sheldon Turcott interviews jury foreman Richard H. Lyall who says the main concern is the inadequacy of education and reform of the inmates. McGaw questions Grossman's dismissal of the criticisms and claims the grand jury was very responsible. He mentions recent talk about replacing the grand jury system with an ombudsman. <165s>
