Abstract
Professor Roebuck in 1955 undertook an extended study of the arrest histories of 400 Negro felons incarcerated in the District of Columbia Reformatory in Lorton, Virginia. On the basis of this study, he constructed an arrest-history typology of 13 criminal patterns, principally based upon legal categories of crime. In this article, the author reports on his comparisons of the Negro numbers man with the other types of felons studied.-EDITOR.
