Hutton, speaking to Grass Valley Lions, said the average age of delinquent juveniles under CYA control has gone from 18 to 20-1/2, which he called "a shift that is pretty meaningful." The director of the CYA facility in Nevada county added that "this tells a story of delinquency and crime in California ‘that's not been generally publicized," Two of the factors that haye caused this trend toward older CYA youths are "vastly improved" services for youngsters , 8-13, allowing lower commit. ments there; and "the incidence ' of crime is occurring in older age groups."
