AB 301 SIGNED INTO ILAW 

by Paul Chignell 

Major Defeat for Chief Gain 

Governor Brown has signed Assembly Bill 

301, "The Police Officers' Bill of Rights" into 

law thus drastically changing the methods 

used by law enforcement administrators in 

investigating their employees. 

A week prior to the signing of this landmark 

legislation, the Governor's office floated a 

trial balloon in the direction of the California 

Organization of Police and Sheriffs. The 

Governor was under intense pressure from his 

own law enforcement appointees as well as 

Chiefs of Police to veto the bill, or in the 

alternative, to amend the legislation so that it 

would not have any major effect. 

Emasculating amendments were sent 

over to COPS lobbyist Charles Oates from the 

Governor's chief legislative aide, Martin 

ATHLETIC INJURIES 

COMPENSABLE 

SAYS COURT 

by Mike Hebei 

On June 15, 1976 the California Court of Appeal 

affirmed a San Francisco Superior Court decision 

which had ruled that Officers Roddy Glover, and Bob 

Knighton were entitled to disability coverage and 

medical treatment for injuries they sustained while 

competing for the San Francisco Police Department's 

touch football team. 

Bob Knighton, Mike Hebei and Roddy Glover review 

Appellate Court decision". 

Retirement Board Denial 

Bob Knighton participated in 1975 in the annual 

Police-Sheriff football game. During the course of this 

athletic endeavor he sustained a serious leg and ankle 

injury. The Retirement Board's compensation division 

placed him on disability leave and provided a physician 

after initial treatment by Kaiser. Approximately 93 

days after his injury, he returned to work. He then 

received a letter from the compensation division informing 

him that his disability status was revoked and

Morgenstein. 

At a meeting with representatives of the 

major police groups in the state, including the 

CHP Association, Long Beach P.O.A., San 

Francisco, Los Angeles Police Protective 

League, Association of Los Angeles Deputy 

Sheriffs, Torrance P.O.A., San Diego Sheriffs 

and others, Morgenstein was told to take the 

amendments back to the Governor and place 

them in the nearest wastebasket. 

The anger and shouting by these rank and 

file resentatives was readily made known to 

Governor Brown as was his committment of 

October 1974 to sign a bill or rights for police 

officers. 

Two police chiefs who consider themselves 

in opposing camps in the methods and styles 

of enforcing the law are Edward M. Davis of 

Los Angeles and our own Charles R. Gain. 

However, these two administrators were 

sounding the same tune in their opposition to 

the 93 days would be charged to his sick leave account. 

Knighton immediately filed for a hearing with the 

City's Retirement Board. 

Roddy Glover participated in 1974 in the annual 

Police - Fire Football game. During the game he was hit 

with a hard blow to the right thigh which later required 

treatment in the emergency room' at Mary's Help 

Hospital. The compensation division placed him on 

disability leave and provided a treating physician. 

Approximately five weeks after his injury, he returned 

to work. Like Knighton, he then received a letter from 

the compensation division informing him that his 

disability status was revoked and that the five weeks 

would be charged against his sick leave account. 

Glover' also, immediately filed for a hearing with the 

City's Retirement Board. 

On June 12, 1974 the Retirement Board heard both 

cases. It determined (Continued Back Page) 

Rev. John Heaney, just dumped by Chief 

of Police Gain. See story on page 7. 

a Police Officers' Bill of Rights. 

Chief Davis sent a representative to 

Sacramento to lobby against the bill and even 

called a press conference to denounce the bill 

as a major detriment to law enforcement. 

Chief Gain on the other hand is an interesting 

police executive to study in light of 

the fight over Assembly Bill 301. 

Most observers of policing philosophies and 

police executives would place a man like 

Charles Gain in the liberal, due process model 

of law enforcing. 

However, many police union leaders have 

said that liberal chiefs are strangely alike 

authoritarian chiefs such as Davis. 

Liberal Chiefs espouse humanistic policing 

philosophies and make statements that the 

police can't do much about urban crime 

except to contain violence in a limited 

manner. They also stress the fact that police 

officers must strictly adhere to the constitutional 

rights and civil liberties of the 

citizens who the police serve. 

BUT DUE PROCESS RIGHTS FOR 

POLICE OFFICERS IS A DIFFERENT 

MATTER ENTIRELY. Chief Gain was 

quoted as saying that Assembly Bill 301 was 

ridiculous; that lie-detector tests are good 

investigative tools; that if a police officer 

shouldn't worry if he has nothing to hide. This 

is strange rhetoric indeed for a liberal police 

chief. 

Contrary to Chief Gain's opinion, the 

legislature of this state and the Governor have 

now rejected forced polygraph examinations 

for police officers. On January 1, 1977 that 

will be state law. 

Contrary to Chief Gain's viewpoint, the 

legislature and Governor of this state have 

seen the need for due process rights for police 

officers. 

The days of autocratic, gestapo tactics by 

certain police administrators are finally over. 

Now that due process protections for police 

officers are law, police administrators will be 

watched closely and all violations will be 

referred to the Attorney General.

President's Corner 

BY JERRY CR0 WLEY 

Complainant states that the herein named officer pointed his finger at him 

and made the following statement to him, "If you stay in this building much 

longer, you'll stay in here for good" 

Complainant states he feels that this statement was a "threat to his safety 

and well-being". Complainant further states that the statement was uncalled 

for and it was apparently the result of Sgt. Crowley's anger at a decision that 

the Police Commission had just made which allowed complainant and his 

group to attend a scheduled meet and confer session with the S.F .P.O .A. 

and the Police Commission. 

Complainant states that the statement made by Sgt. Crowley was 

witnessed by the following:

bargain collectively are emotional issues that hang on 

acrimoniousl y despite- an opinion by almost everyone 

about the correct remedy. So maybe an unpopular 

opinion by one who has worked in this unpopular 

vineyard might be appropriate. 

All strikes are wasteful. Many are crippling. They 

should be sedulously avoided except as an absolute last 

resort. - 

But no American yet has suggested a total solution to 

the problem short of establishing a socialist state. 

Attempts to eliminate strikes in the civil services "by 

passing a law" have succeeded to about the same extent 

as attempts to eliminate sin by the same means. 

Nor are the courts adequate to the task of dealing 

with strikes by public workers. Injunctions don't teach 

schools: court orders do not fix sewer -pipes. Furthermore, 

judges have been notoriously unwilling to get 

tough when their injunctions are contemptuously 

flouted by thousands of public employes acting in 

concert. 

This is a recognition on their part that there is a wide 

and widening gap between the realities of life in the 

public sector and the exhortations of the law. The

underlying reason is that in ultimate analysis a worker 

generally has a constitutional right to withhold his or 

her labor over a matter relating to terms and conditions 

of employment. In the background is the congressional 

declaration in the Clayton Act that the labor of a 

human being is not a commodity of commerce. 

The reasons we assign for saying that private 

workers, but not public workers, have a right to 

bargain collectively and therefore to strike, will not 

stand analysis. What difference is there between a 

strike by a waitress in Trader Vic's or a waitress in a 

school cafeteria Or between a stenographer who works 

for the president of Standard Oil or one who works for 

the manager of the Art Commission 

Isn't it rather obvious that strikes by railroad 

workers, teamsters, or dock workers are infinitely more 

crippling than - 

strikes by clerks in the Marriage Bureau, 

guards atthe Art Museum. or secretaries on the Public 

Utilities Commission Public or private is not the 

touchstone, but rather the impact on people. 

There are some who would contend that a strike on 

some agencies of City Government (for example. the 

Planning Commission) might actually improve the 

quality of municipal life. And there is always that wag

who answers the question. "How many people work at 

City Hail" by saying"Half of them." A slander to be 

sure, because City workers on the whole exhibit at least 

as much diligence as their counterparts in the private 

sector and less a disposition to build empires than their 

equals in private corporations. However, it bespeaks an 

attitude about how seriously some critics of public; - 

unions regard public strikes when they aren't 

fireballing jeremiads about them. 

Police, fire fighters and jail guards are three 

categories of public workers who do not have a moral - 

right to strike.- In San Francisco, at least they are 

willing to acknowledge this limitation but only in turn - 

for legalized machinery to air their grievances and to 

resolve impasse by binding, arbitration. The public 

agencies simply are not going to get away with their 

standard declaration: "You can't strike and we won't 

give you arbitration either." - - 

It's been demonstrated time and time again that this 

attitude simply won't stop public strikes. What has a 

chance of working is a system which provides for 

collective bargaining and arbitration by law 'or by 

contract. Even that won't work 100 per cent of the time. 

but it will do a lot better than what's happening now.

IN DEFENSE 

OF HEALY'S 

As usual when things are going well, everybody loves 

everybody. But when a member doesn't understand a 

situation.' in this case insurance, his circumstances 

become very self-righteous. Not that one should not 

look out for his own best interests, but when 

satisfaction is not immediately forthcoming, then it is 

very easy to bad rap the company or person whom may 

thought to be responsible. 

Case in point is the Healy Insurance Agency. The 

first "sore' s was opened about November of 1974. Auto 

insurance via payroll deduction was cancelled by the 

Traveler's Insurance Company. NOT by Healy's, but 

by Traveler's. Who got knocked You're right, it was 

Healy's. 

Ray Peterson and Bill Healy broke their behinds to 

get an extension from Traveler's so they could locate 

other carriers who would take over the auto insurance. 

They found two companies who filled the gap, but they 

had to consider the new business as "new" and not 

continued, thus some rate increases occurred.Who got 

the blame Healy's again. 

Then this year the sky came falling down when the 

Department of Insurance of the State of Illinois ordered 

the Old Republic Insurance Company (Founders of the 

Public Safety Officers' Services, Inc.) to CEASE AND 

DESIST selling anymore "Group" life, dental, or 

accident & sickness policies. - 

Typical questions asked of me were. "Are we going to 

sue Healy's" "Why" I would respond. "Well look 

what they are doing to us. I've paid them a lot of 

premiums. you know and now they are screwing us." 

Healy's is an independent broker which places the 

types of insurances their clients desire. Ray Petersen. 

who is now the President of Healy's. is a former SFPD 

officer. He approached the Insurance Committee a few 

years back with better coverage at better premiums 

than were then being paid by the members. 

My answer to "screwing" us was and is, that the 

Dept. of Insurance of Illinois issued the Cease and

Desist order, not Healy's. As a matter of fact. Healy's 

did everything possible to protect us: 

1. Immediately found another carrier who would 

take over the existing life insurance policies and no 

increase in cost. 

2. Got Old Republic to keep their Claims office here 

in the Russ Building, open as many weeks as possible to 

handle all existing claims. 

3. Located another carrier who would continue to 

Write 1st day accident coverage. 'which is so "popular" 

here in S.F. (Unfortunately, this company got cold feet 

with so many applications coming in, and they closed 

the door after the first hundred or so applied for the 1st 

day policies. 

Then Dan Sargent of Healy's located the Springfield 

Life Ins. Co., which would sell not 1st day, but 7th day. 

14th day or 30th day coverage. And it 'sold well, until 

still another company was found from the Mid-west, 

which said they would sell 1st day coverage. 

Why all this trouble Because you the consumer 

demanded it. But that honeymoon lasted only a 

hundred or so policies, and now that company says "no 

more." (Incidently, if you have a 1st day coverage 

policy, HANG ONTO IT, FOR IT IS LIKE GOLD!) 

4. Petersen and Healy knew the Old Republic Dental 

Plan was losing money. That's why they told us about 

the Preventive Dental Health Foundation. I have dealt 

directly with PDHF and now we have that great dental 

plan. 

So I put it to you, tell me how Healy's is screwing 

anybody Oh sure, there are some individual 

member's problems and I don't deny that. These 

problems will be worked out soon to the satisfaction of 

the member(s) involved; you have my word on that. But 

to my knowledge, they are doing a very good job for us 

97%or better in all respects, all of the time. If you 

believe differeijt, please let me know.

THE COCA-COLA BTLG. Co. 

OF CAL.-S.F. 

Crime and Empire 

Building 

The Los Angeles City Council recently informed 

the Justice Department that it will .not 

accept a $3.5 mil!ion grant it was scheduled to 

receive from the Law Enforcement Assistance 

Administration. The reason LEAA was 

pressuring the Los Angeles Police Department 

to amend its hiring practices. According to the 

council and to police chief Edward Davis, LEAA 

wanted the LAPD to impose minority quotas, end 

testing for applicants and for promotions, 

eliminate physical agility tests and abolish its 

57" minimum height requirement. 

This example of bureaucratic ukase abounds - 

in ironies, especially since LEAA previously 

commended the LAPD's minority recruitment 

program as a model for others. The 7,400- 

member police force includes 411 black men and 

16 black women, 631 Hispanic men and five 

Hispanic women, 50 Oriental men and one 

Oriental woman, plus 10 Indians, and 132 

Caucasian females. A number of minority 

policemen hold high ranks. 

The, makeup of the LAPD does not mirror the 

precise racial or ethnic makeup of the City of Los 

Angeles, to be sure. But there are perfectly valid 

reasons why everything from language barriers 

to the reluctance until very recently of blacks to 

seek careers in a profession many looked upon 

with some suspicion if not enmity. This attitude 

is changing, but it will take time before that 

change is reflected in big city police membership 

rolls, especially so in view of hiring freezes and 

cutbacks resulting from recent budget squeezes 

in most big cities. 

Yet the above is mostly beside the point. The 

point is, what is LEAA doing meddling in local 

police policies By stretching matters to the 

breaking point it can perhaps be argued that law 

enforcement has some relationship to minority 

attitudes about crime, which in turn are related to 

minority representation on police forces. But 

there is no lack of federal state and city agencies 

to deal with such concerns. LEAA, on the other 

hand, was created as a direct federal response-to - 

public concern about crime—not about minority 

recruitment and similar sociological matters. 

Yet increasingly LEAA seems to have lost sight 

of its origins and its mission. Several months ago 

two independent studies of the agency, including 

one commissioned by the agency itself, 

concluded that it has accomplished little in the 

fight against crime despite the expenditure of 

about $4.5 billion since 1968. They agreed that its 

most notable accomplishment has been to 

generate mountains of red tape and 

bureaucracy. 

Rarely a day goes by that LEAA press releases 

don't trumpet another advisory panel, project or 

study that is only tangentially related to crime but 

very reminiscent of the empire building that took 

place during the federal "war on poverty." 

Meanwhile, LEAA's budget has grown from $63 

million in 1969 to $753 million for fiscal year 1977. 

And crime continues to skyrocket. 

Law enforcement officials we speak to 

generally approve of LEAA's efforts in keeping 

them posted about the latest technology for 

fighting crime. But they also feel that in an effort 

to construct a bureaucratic empire, LEAA has 

gone off in a thousand different and largely 

useless directions. Yet because the agency has 

the money to dangle in front of cooperative local 

police departments. few have had the courage to 

resist it. Chief Davis claims that LEAA director 

Richard Velde said that Los Angeles and its 

police departmen't could expect retaliation from 

other federal agencies for turning down the 

grant. Mr. Velde denies this, but it would hardly 

be unprecedented for a rebuffed bureaucracy to 

threaten retaliation. 

What we appear to be witnessing is a repeat of 

the federal role in education—a role that 

prompted Yale President Kingman Brewster to 

lament that accepting federal support for 

physics, for example, means "we must conform 

to federal policies in the admission of women to 

the Art School, in ,omen's athletic facilities. . 

So far federal "crime control" is only a miniature 

version of that effort, but it is , advancing rapidly in 

that direction and with a similar lack of concrete 

results.

RE VIEW& OUTLOOK

Another slick move by Chief Gain 


Gain removes Father Heaney as Police Chaplain 

Sgt. Jerry Crowley 

S.F.P.O.A. 

Dear Jerry. 

Enclosed you will find all of the letters which have 

passed between myself and the Archbishop since the 

chief's first indirect request for my resignation. Enclosed 

also is a letter from the Board of Supervisors 

• which may have been one of the initial causes for Chief 

Gain's dissatisfaction with me as Chaplain of Police.. 

To fill you in on what has happened. it all started 

after the Northern Station Golf Tournament in July. 

Allegedly I made some remarks at that Tournament 

which could be construed as uncomplimentary to Chief 

Gain. Actually they were less uncomplimentary than 

they were critical. Following that Golf Tournament and 

the alleged critical remarks. Captain . Mortimer 

Mclnery phoned me and suggested that since I live 

outside of San Francisco the Chief thought it would be 

a good idea if I resigned as Chaplain of Police. 

I do not feel that my geographical position is sufficient 

to warrant such a request since during the eight 

years that I have served the San Francisco Police 

• Department I have lived only four months in San 

Francisco. I informed Captain Mclnerny that if the 

Chief wanted my resignation that he should write me a 

letter. I also informed Captain Mclnerny that I would 

not resign. 

Within two weeks of that phone conversation 

Captain Mclnerny brought Chief Gain to the Ar- 

• • 

chbishop's office for the purpose, of getting me to 

resign. When I first spoke to the Archbishop after that 

• meeting, at which I was not present. he informed me 

that since the Chief had not asked for my resignation 

he, himself, would do nothing. 

However, following that conversation with the Archbishop-he 

wrote me the enclosed letter of August 24. 

responded with encidsed letter of August 30 which 

...;.hé ànswered.on September 2 and you will find enclosed 

,ty response to that letter of September 3. On receipt of 

:esponse from Archbishop -McGucken to my letter of 

9September 3, I will contactyou immediately. 

1 am not in the business of causing trouble for 

anyone. least of all my Archbishop to whom I owe 

allegiance and loyalty, however. I am quite dismayed 

'over the lack of due process in this whole matter and -1 

feel if Chief Gain wants me out he ought to publicly 

state his reasons and give me the opportunity to 

respond. 

Thanks very much for your promise of support. I 

• appreciate your loyalty and that of the men. 

Most Reverend Joseph T. McGucken 

Archbishop of San Francisco 

Your Excellency, 

Sincerely 

Father Heaney 

• This is a very difficult letter for me to write. i 

have waited almost a week to respond to your 

letter of August 24 because I wanted to be sure 

that I wasn't responding out of bitterness or 

disappointment. And I must admit that these

importance to me and I cannot stand meekly by 

while that integrity is under attack even if only by 

implication. 

You ended your letter of August 24, "With 

thanks for your loyalty.. .". I may not have much 

more to offer than that loyalty but I can honestly 

say that I have always given my 100% since I said 

"Promito" 23 years ago. I value the virtue of 

loyalty very highly and you can be assured that 

you will always have mine. In this case I- expect 

very little in return - just the opportunity to be 

supported by my Archbishop until proved unworthy 

or uncapable of filling the position concerned. 

- Sincerely yours, 

Rev. John P. Heaney 

Pastor 

Most Reverend Joseph McGucken

placed because of your decision. 

T4P vicitcl the police stations and bureaus and 

First of all I would like to point out that it is 

quite clear that Chief Gain wants .me out as 

chaplain. For reasons known only toi himself he 

is unwilling to take the responsibility for my 

resignation or dismissal and so with the help of 

Captain Mclnerny he has put the onus on you. 

This ploy is not going to be effective since it is 

not possible for the Archbishop to "appoint" a 

police chaplain. The Archbishop only recommends 

and the Chief of Police appoints. I was 

recommended by you and appointed by Chief 

Cahill in 1968. 

If Chief Gain does not want me as a Police 

Chaplain it is up to him to ask for my resignation. 

I, of course, have no intention of resigning 

especially since no one has given me any good 

reasons why I should do so. I have served the 

San Francisco Police Department well over the 

last eight years and I believe I have the confidence 

and loyalty of most of the men in the 

Department. For me to resign at the request of 

the Chief would be tantamount to an admission 

of guilt. If Chief Gain wishes to dismiss me I will 

ask for a hearing before the Police Commission. 

ihave no intention of embarrassing you or the 

Church, but , my personal integrity is of great 

riany police officers and their families in 

ons. 

ughout the entire police department that

and Father Heaney are both dedicated to

The San Francisco Police Officers' Association, the 

California Organization of Police and Sheriffs, the Federated 

Firefighters, the California State Firefighters, the United 

Firefighters of Los Angeles City, as well as -many independent 

Police Associations throughout the State have - formed a 

Coalition concerning one issue. That issue is Binding Arbitrtion 

and Collective Bargaining. - 

This Coalition has endorsed or rejected candidates based 

on their position regarding this issue. We have taken the 

position that we must target our time and energy in several 

Senate elections. We must unseat those incumbent Senators 

and Assemblymen in order to change the balance of voting 

power in the Senate Legislature. 

Toward that end we need the participation of all those 

members of our Association. If you are an out of town 

resident'and have families and friends in San Francisco, 

please contact them. Your positive response is vital to your 

representation and future benefits. There is much precinct 

work to be done. If you are only active in your immediate 

block or two block are it can be extremely beneficial to our 

common goals: - 

1)The use of your home for one day to introduce a candidate 

to your neighbors. 

2)The use of your home for sign purposes. 

3)The use of your time to distribute literature in the hemediate 

two or three block area. 

Any one of these contributions would make our polical 

campaign a people campaign which is' essential for election 

victories.' -

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

The meeting opened with the Pledge of Allegiance to 

the flag. A roll call of members showed seventeen (17) 

present. one (1) absent, one (1) DP and one (1) on 

vacation. Absent for the second straight meeting was

The usual order of business was suspended and the 

President opened the meeting by announcing that the 

Governor was having a Bill signing ceremony in 

Sacramento the following day Wednesday. 08/18/76. 

on AB 301. He then proceeded to discuss the three (3) 

ballot Propositions that we were attempting to get on 

the November ballot by initiative petition. He felt that 

not enough effort was being put forth by the membership 

in order to get the proper number of required 

signatures. He asked for more help from the board on 

this matter. The President also stated that he had been 

to every station and talked to almost every watch 

soliciting their support for getting signatures. 

The regular order of business was resumed with the 

Secretary's report. It was approved after two changes. 

Mike Hebei gave a Labor Relations report. He stated 

that the Labor Relations Seminar that was previously 

scheduled for August 21 has been re-scheduled due to 

the petition campaign. The Seminar will be held on 

Saturday September 1 1 at 0930 hrs. and conclude at 

1600 hrs. at the office. President Crowle y stated that 

other associations from throughout the state had shown 

interest in attending the Seminar especially in view of 

the passage of AB 301. The board approved having 

other associations to attend if they so desire. 

Gale Wright gave a publications report and stated 

that the deadline for submission of articles for the next 

Policeman would be September 1. 1976. He also explained 

some of the difficulties that are being encountered 

by the Insurance Committee because of the 

Dental Plan and other Insurance Plans. 

On Civil Service. Chigneli stated that the board had 

passed the proposed pay raise for the second reading. 

however. Supervisor Molinari had introduced an 

amendment that would make pay for all like-work. 

like-pay position-start after thirty straight working 

days in said position. instead of pay starting from the 

first day. President Crowley stated that the Association 

has sent a letter to the Civil Service Commission and the 

Chief of Police requesting that a bibliography be immediately 

published for a Lieutenant's examination to 

he held next year. 

Under New Business, the President presented the 

board with a Memorandum of Agreement between the 

SFPOA and the promoters of the Golden Gloves. 

Under this program. we would put on boxing shows 

each month at Kezar Pavilion. We will have members 

of the Association and members- of the Youth Foundation 

on the Board of Directors of this Organization. 

It was motioned by Hebei and Seconded by Carlson to 

appropriate $500.00 to start the promotion of this 

program. The motion passed. The President also stated 

that he will 'ask the Communit y Service Committee to 

donate $1,000.00 to this cause. 

There was no further business and the meeting was 

adjourned.

Well, once again the annual Police Olympics is over 

and is now a matter for the record books. 

And once again, the San Francisco officers who 

participated made a tremendous showing. 

More than 2700 law enforcement officers from 

throughout California competed in a variety of 40 

events which makes the Police Olympics the third 

largest sporting event in the world, surpassed only by 

the World Olympics and the Pan-American Games. 

Competing in the events, held this year in San Jose. 

were a number of new and young San Francisco officers 

• and for the first time in the 10-year history of the 

Olympics. a half-dozen of the women officers, (Q2.5) 

gave San Francisco its first female representation. 

• It was a rewarding experience for all . . . those 

competing and those in the spectators stands. . . seeing 

new and fresh blood. 

Oh, don't get me wrong! There's nothing wrong with 

the old-timers, (as a matter of fact, that's what's been 

keeping the Olympics going) but it's refreshing to see 

some of the young 'uns showing some interest. 

Not taking anything away from :-anyone, especially 

record-shattering Ken Scalmanini, Ed Preston and Jim 

Curran, I feel that the San Francisco basketball team 

probably deserves the most credit of anyone in the 

• entire Olympics.

schedule that left them completely drained. 

Beginning on Wednesday. they played the University 

of California's Police Department and beat them 80 to 

59. The next morning they played the combined 

Merced P.D. and Sheriff's Office team, burying them 

115 to 63. Later that same day they were matched 

against Berkeley P.D. In an extremely well-fought 

game that necessitated overtime to determine the 

winner, San Francisco went down to an 89 to 87 defeat.. 

To the novice, it appeared -that the basketball and 

baseball teams had been eliminated from further 

competition since both ended up in the loser's circle 

after two full days of competition. 

But somebody forgot to tell the members of the teams 

that they were "through." Since Olympic rules call for 

"double elimination," neither team gave up the fight. 

At 11 a.m. Friday, the basketball team bounced 

back and defeated San Jose P.D. 79 to 60; and then at 5 

p.m. they were pitted against the Los Angeles P.D. 

beating them 65 to 61. 

On Saturday morning, they played the Los Angeles 

Sheriff's Department, overpowering them 84 to 74; and 

approximately five-hours later, went on to beat the 

Long Beach P.D. 87 to 72. 

By this time, the exhausting schedule was beginning 

to take its toll, but the men were still game. 

On Sunday morning, they were again matched 

against the only team that had beat them . . . Berkeley 

P.D. For the S.F. team, it was their 8th game in five 

days. 

Berkeley won the game 76 to 65 but not before they 

knew they were matched (Continued on P. 12)

Here's a chance for you arm-chair TV athletes to get 

behind your fellow officers and give them a big push. 

The S.F. Police Olympic Fund is sponsoring a special 

fundraising drive. . . a drive that everyone should want 

to join. 

Purpose of the drive is to raise enough money to send 

the S.F. Police basketball team and Ken Scalmanini to 

Jacksonville, Fla., to participate in next month's 

National/International Police Olympics. 

The goal of the drive is $7,000, 

If each man, or woman, sold ONLY five (5) tickets, 

which are available from Joe Mollo in the Police Gym, 

it would insure the men the chance of making 

the trip and give them some eating money on the side. 

We know from past experience, however, that a lot of 

the officers won't, or "can't be bothered" to sell any 

tickets, while at the same token, there are others who 

will sell many, many more than their share. 

Donations (tickets) are $1.00 each and entitles the

Football Team 

by Bob Del Torre 

The 1976 football season is here and SFPD's first 

game is on September 18 at Jackson Field. The Jackson 

Flag Football League this year has improved termendously 

and has doubled its entry of teams. 

It seems each position on the police team has a new 

face with the exception of a few veterans from the last 2 

years. But there is one item on the menu that hasn't 

changed and that is the spirit and togetherness the 

team has. This year's team isn't big nor exceptionally - 

fast but the attitude is a winning one. The players have 

pride - that is to say, the season means more than a 

series of games. They are out to do their best for they • 

are representing the best - S.F.'s Finest. 

Taking over the quarterbacking chores this year is 

Jimmy Taylor. Taylor courageously took on this tough 

chore as the team was without -a Q B up until 3 weeks 

ago. So far he has looked impressive and the team is 

backing him with full support. Glenn Bell is the other 

QB and will help the team with his poise and control in 

the backfield. At running back there are veterans Mike 

Keyes and J ohnPayne. Both have experience from last 

year and have shown they can run as well as catch. 

Much will depend on this year's offensive line as that is 

usually where the games are won or lost. Lineman Mike 

Shubin. Art Tapia, Charlie Tedrow and Ed Mc- 

Donough have all looked strong in practice. Ray 

Schaffer and Marion Jackson are two of the best tight 

ends in the league - both of whom can block and catch 

the pigskin. Veteran Herman Clark and newcomer 

Dave Fontana have proved to be the top wide receivers 

so far. Other newcomers are Kevin Bouey, Joe Perone 

and Jack Minkel will seeaction on offense. 

Once again the P.D. 's pride is their defense. The 

defensive . line is awesome with John Blessing. Steve 

Lundberg and Bob Rodriguez leading the way. Jerry 

Donovan and Harlan Wilson will also see action on the 

front line. Jack Minkel and Bob Del ,Torre are the 

starting linebackers who have shown desire and 

aggressiveness in the style of play so far. The secondary 

is superb with 3-year veteran Mike Lawson at cornerback 

calling the defensive signals. Kevin Bouey has 

shown he can definitely play that safety position - and 

play it well. Enough can't be said about the other 

cornerback, Dan O'Leary. Dan hasn't played in 4 years 

but came out 3 weeks ago and is playing great ball. 

Punting has shown to be an important facit of game 

and the P.D.'s team is proud to have probably the best 

punter in the entire league. Jerry Donovan. 

The games will be held every Saturday starting the 

18th of September at Jackson Playground (17th S-t. & 

Arkansas) at 9 A.M. Come out and support your team 

- they represent the best.

The issue was heard before Judge Ira Brown in

the Retirement Board after finding that the injuries 

suffered by Knighton and Glover were received in the 

performance of duty. The city attorney appealed. 

The Court of Appeal subsequently affirmed Judge 

Ira Brown's decision. In August the California 

Supreme Court denied the City Attorney's request for a 

hearing. 

The Retirement Board, now has the case before it

SENATOR MILTON MARKS 

No ordinary man, Senator Milton Marks; 

A family man through and through; 

What with the family canines sniffing 

At the visiting dignitary's well polished shoes 

While his teenage daughtor Carol is still rapping on the phone 

As the inviting aroma of a slow simmering beef stew 

Permeates the rooms. 

Nothings rarer than a personality! 

So many causes both interior and exterior 

Hinder the normal development 

Of human beings. 

So many hostile forces crush them, 

So many illusions lead them astray, 

That there is required a concurrence 

Of extraordinary circumstances 

To render possible the existence 

Of an independent character. 

Thus, when we meet with strong natures 

Endowed with the secret of leadership and command; 

However low-key it may be; 

Yet able to resist the subtle temptations 

To which so many of the finer spirits have succumbed, 

It behooves us to recognize and salute in them 

A quiet greatness 

Before which all that is customary 

To call by that name 

Fades into dawn's early mist. 

No ordinary man, Senator MIlton Marks 

As he thoughtfully listens 

To a legitimate neighborhood complaint 

While unconsciously fumbling 

With that one loose button 

On his somewhat frayed 

Dark Blue suit. 

And as an addendum, might I add: 

Without waxing maudlin 

Please allow this simple poet to state 

That the last couple of lines 

of Robert Forst's much lvoed poem come to mind: 

'I have promises to keep 

And miles to go before I sleep, 

And miles to go before I sleep.'

Police Olympics continued against a tough, but tired, 

team . . . a team that someone was heard to say: "would 

be dangerous if they had someone to coach them and if 

they ever got a chance to practice together. "' In the end. 

the S.F. team ended up in 2nd place and each member 

was awarded Silver medal. 

The softball team. meanwhile, was finally knocked 

out of contention when they lost a close one to the 

Orange County Sheriff's Department 3 to 2. 

Earlier the team had defeated Santa Clara P.D.; lost 

to Los Angeles P.D.; and then beat teams from Beverly 

Hills P.D. , San Diego CHP, and the Sacramento 

County Sheriffs Department. 

But, all was not on the losing side. 

Results of the various events and the medals that 

were won by the San Francisco entries are shown on the 

charts that have been posted in all the stations. 

What the chart doesn't show is that Scalmanini, of 

Communications, ran in two events and established 

newm records in both. In the six-mile run he broke his 

old record of 33 minutes and set a new one at 31 

minutes and 23 seconds. 

Not satisfied with this, he then smashed the old 

record of 15 minutes and 17 seconds for the three-mile 

run. Urged on by his wife Kathy. Scalmanini breezed 

'across the finish line in the record time of 14 minutes 

and 53 seconds. As he ran an extra lap around the track 

to unwind, he received a standing ovation from the 

bleacher crowd. 

The crowd also watched retired Inspector Ed Preston 

set a new record for the Golden Masters (over 50) in the 

one-mile run and saw him also finish first in his 

category in the six-mile run. 

And speaking of those over 50 . . . what about 

Captain Jim Curran Already the holder of the record 

in Shot Put for Golden Masters at 31 feet. 113/4 inches, 

Curran tossed the shot to a new record of 32 feet, 

101/2 inches. 

There were many others who also turned in sterling 

performances and in no way do I mean to slight them 

by notmentioning them, but their accomplishments are 

shown on the chart. 

I do think I'd be remiss, however, if I didnt pay 

particular attention to the efforts of Officers Judy 

Hardiman who won three Silver medals in swimming; 

Yvonne Harbor, a third and fourth place finish in 

track; Terry Ivy a third in track, and to Jackie Jehi, 

Melinda Pengel, Susan Schumacher and Elizabeth 

Droher. They idn't all win medals but they at least 

tried. 

Almost all who participated seemed to enjoy 

themselves, (even the losers) and I think that some of 

the newer officers found that the Olympics is a very 

serious business amongst those who enter. - 

Many of the "first-timers" discovered that it takes 

weeks and months of hard work and practice to finish 

anywhere in the money . . . or even finish for that 

matter! ' 

Many departments feel that the Olympics and the 

training that the officers do in preparation for them is 

beneficial to good police work. That is not necessarily 

true here, but maybe as time goes by, it will change.
