Summary
The fight against crime looks like getting a new aid - helicopters. As part of a Home Office experiment the Metropolitan Police have been loaned Army Sioux whirlybirds for five weeks to see how the flying machines fit into the police picture. The ground-air technique was demonstrated to Pathe News. It looks a sure winner.
