Award of Medals
The Walter Scott .Medal for Valor for 1958, t he Thomas F. Sullivan Awards, and
Department Medals of Honor, as recommended by a Police Board of Merit, were awarded
at the annual ball of the Boston Police Relief Association held at the Boston Garden, Decem-
ber !), 1958, as follows:
The Waller Seal! Medal for Valor, the Thomas F. Sullivan Award, and a Department Medal
of Honor to Patrolman Joseph M. Branley, Division 2
Patrolman Joseph M. Branley of Division 2 is hereby awarded the Walter Scott
Medal for Valor, the Thomas F. Sullivan Award, and a Department Medal of Honor for
meritorious duty performed on April 25, 1958.
On April 25, 1958, Patrolmen Joseph M. Branley and John F. X. Joyce were dis-
patched to investigate a holdup of a finance company. En route they alerted two officers
who guarded the entrances to the building. Patrolmen Branley and Joyce proceeded to the
second floor office of the finance company where Patrolman Branley ordered the armed
gunman to surrender. Officer Branley was wounded in the exchange of shots with the gun-
man who attempted to flee. Patrolman Patrick J. Conroy and Austin L. Cannon, Jr., im-
mediately ascended to the second floor and in a fusillade of shots the fleeing gunman was
fatally wounded. The slain gunman had a long criminal record and was wanted for similar
robberies in this community.
Thomas F. Sullivan Awards and Department Medals of Honor
The Thomas F. Sullivan Award and Department Medal of Honor are hereby awarded
to Patrolmen John F. X. Joyce and Austin L. Cannon, Jr., of Division 2 and Patrick J. Conroy
of the Traffic Division for meritorious service on April 25, 1958.
On April 25, 195S, these officers performed outstanding police work in the case just
cited, in which a police officer was seriously injured when shot by a vicious criminal attempt-
ing to escape after committing the crime of robbery.
Sergeant James F. McKenna of Division 1 is awarded the Thomas F. Sullivan Award
and a Department Medal of Honor for meritorious duty performed on March 17, 1958.
On the morning of March 17, 1958, a man entered a building, went to the eighth
floor, climbed out on a one-foot ledge, and threatened to jump. Sergeant McKenna, with
other officers, responded immediately and pleaded with the man to come away from the
ledge but he ignored their pleas. He did request, however, that a certain priest be notified.
The priest was immediately dispatched to the scene, along with two other priests, but despite
all pleading the man refused to leave the ledge.
Sergeant McKenna took off his uniform and donned the clerical garb of one of the
priests. While observing the man on the ledge it was noted that for short intervals he would
close his eyes. During one of these intervals, the sergeant, without regard for his own safety,
leaped to the man and for a moment both teetered, eighty feet above the ground. Finally,
after a struggle, Sergeant McKenna snatched the man to safety.
15
Detective Anthony J. DiNatale of Division 7 is hereby awarded the Thomas F.
Sullivan Award and a Department Medal of Honor for meritorious duty performed on
December .30, 1957.
On December 30, 1957, Detective DiNatale observed an automobile traveling at a
fast rate of speed. After pursuit the officer headed the car into the curbing, and as he ques-
tioned the operator a passenger, without being observed, came up behind the officer and
placed a gun against his back. Meanwhile the operator aimed a gun at the officer's head.
Both men demanded that the officer get into the car and when the officer refused, the operator
struck him with a revolver.
Detective DiNatale drew his service revolver and discharged six shots in their direc-
tion. As a result of this fire, the operator ran into an alley and the passenger fell, dropping
his gun. The officer placed him under arrest. The operator was found hiding in the cellar
of a nearby house. He stated that he had met his passenger in a neighboring city and they
had conspired to steal a car and commit a series of robberies.
Both men were hardened criminals, having served sentences in several correctional
institutions.
•H ^ ■'£ ^ ^ ^
Patrolmen George W. Allen, Charles W. Conway, and Martin F. Mulkern of Division 9
are hereby awarded the Thomas F. Sullivan Award and a Department Medal of Honor for
meritorious service performed on November 20, 1957.
On November 20, 1957, Patrolmen Allen and Mulkern responded in a radio car to the
scene of a hank holdup where they observed a man running out of the bank. The officers
chased and apprehended him and found him to be in possession of a loaded pistol. Patrol-
man Conway responded with the wagon, and, while searching for the other holdup men,
apprehended at gun-point under a rear porch two men, one of whom was in possession of a
loaded revolver.
Two shopping hags containing money taken from the bank were recovered by the
officers, and later another of the holdup men was taken into custody.
Patrolmen James II. ( )'Brien and William E. Towns of Division 10 are hereby awarded
the Thomas F. Sullivan Award and a Department Medal of Honor for meritorious police
work performed on February 5, 195s.
On the afternoon of February 5, 195S, while a young girl, six years of age, was playing
in the street in front of her home, she was taken forcibly into an automobile by an unknown
man who threatened to kill her if she cried out. Later, after forcing the girl into the rear
seat of the automobile ami criminally attacking her, he put her out of the ear, with pieces of
her clothing saturated with blood. She was found near her home by her father who sum-
moned a physician, and the child was confined in a hospital for several days as the result of
injuries inflicted by her assailant.
The above-named officers began an immediate search for the assailant and questioned
a number of children in the area. Three days after this attack the officers requested permis-
sion to work into the night on the case. They spent some six hours waiting for a suspect to
return to his home and, when he did so, arrested him on suspicion of rape.
10
Although identified by his victim and another girl he had attempted to accost, the
suspect denied any knowledge of the crime for many hours when first questioned. He offered
alibis to support his feigned innocence, but after hours of superior interrogation broke down
and admitted the crime.
Patrolman George F. Moore, Jr., and Robert VV. Whalen of Division 11 are hereby
awarded the Thomas F. Sullivan Award and a Department Medal of Honor lor meritorious
duty performed on December 13, 1957.
On (lie evening of December 13, 1957, while in a sector car, the officers observed a
man acting suspiciously in front of a market. They .stopped the suspect, who they realized
had been aware of their surveillance and had started walking away from the market. The
officers questioned the suspect, and as they were alighting from the car he retreated a few
steps, drew a revolver from under his jacket, and, pointing at the officers, threatened to use it.
Patrolman Moore lunged at the suspect and with the help of Patrolman Whalen
wrested from his grasp a loaded revolver. On examination the suspect was found to lie
wearing a silk stocking mask, partially obscuring his face under a deep visored cap.
The weapon possessed by this suspect was found to be fully loaded and investigation
revealed it had been stolen in a break in a nearby town. The prisoner admitted the larceny
and named as accomplices three others, who were arrested for armed robbery.
The prisoner further confessed to other breaks, naming two accomplices who were
later arrested, and he stated that all three had conspired to hold up the market in front of
which he had been detected.

LOST AND STOLEN PROPERTY UNIT
A description of all articles reported lost, stolen, or found in this city is filed in this
unit. Many cities and towns throughout the United States forward lists of property stolen
in such places. All pawnbrokers and secondhand dealers submit daily reports of all articles
pawned or purchased. A comparison of the description of articles reported lost or stolen
and those articles which are pawned or purchased by dealers resulted in the recovery of
thousands of dollars' worth of stolen property and the arrest of many thieves.
Pawnshops and secondhand shops are inspected daily for (he purposes of identifying
property which may have been stolen.

BALLISTICS UNIT
Personnel consists of members of the Bureau of Criminal Investigation expert in bal-
listics, explosives, and munitions. All evidence found at the scene of crime where firearms
or explosives were used is examined. Suspected weapons are catalogued, fired for test and
comparison purposes, and spent bullets and discharged cases from these weapons are filed.
Cases involving ballistic evidence are prepared and presented in the various courts.
This unit responds to all calls where threats of bombing are received and makes a
thorough examination of the premises to make certain that no bombs are planted thereon.
All department firearms, accessories pertaining to same, and tear gas equipment have
been inspected and serviced.
All firearms held as evidence pending disposition by the courts are recorded.
Stolen firearms are traced and whenever possible are returned to the rightful owners.
A file is kept on stolen firearms, and checks are made against the file at the Lost and Stolen
Property Unit and at the files of the Massachusetts Department of Public Safety.
When firearms property of the United States arc found used in crime or recovered
otherwise, such property is returned to the proper military or naval authorities after cases
are disposed of by the courts.
This unit works in cooperation with other police departments, federal agencies, mili-
tary and naval intelligence units.

'URIXC; the past year, the Traffic Division was re-
sponsible for the regulation of traffic within that area of
the city covered by Divisions 1, 2, 3, and 4. Effective
February 5, 1958, this area was increased to include
Division 10 and the post at Commonwealth avenue and
Boston University Bridge, Division 14. In addition, the
Traffic Division enforced parking regulations within this
area, supervised the preparation ami mailing of parking
violation notices for the entire department, and main-
tained a safety patrol.
The Traffic Problem
The volume of traffic during the past year showed an
increase of 1.3 per cent over the previous high of last year.
Total plates issued by the Registrar of Motor Vehicles, as
of October 31, 1958, had reached a figure of 1,705,328, an
increase of 19,336 over the corresponding figure of Octo-
ber 31, 1957.

Construction work on the Fitzgerald Expressway has now Keen completed as far as
the off-ramp to Beach street. The section lying immediately beyond is scheduled for com-
pletion during the latter part of the summer of 1959. Until this has been accomplished, the
full value of the expressway will not be available and heavy traffic conditions will continue
in the Dewey Square area.
Off-street parking garages have been completed and pul in service during the past
year at Ilayward place, Province street, and Fort Hill square. An additional garage is cur-
rency under construction at Kingston and Bedford streets.

Central Complaint and Records Bureau
Ox July 16, 1958, the Boston Police Department estab-
lished a Central Complaint and Records Bureau embracing
the Criminal Records and Identification Section of the
Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the former Bureau
of Operations, with its radio, telephone, and teletype
facilities, which became the Central Complaint Room.
An IBM Statistical Section to receive, process, and
record all of the various daily activities of the department,
including arrests, investigations, and services, was also
established to produce statistics for monthly and annual
crime reports to the FBI and all other reports required by
other agencies as well as necessary information for depart-
mental use.
A complete and up-to-date roster of department per-
sonnel revealing individual skills, talents, and educational
status has been created by machine operation and is read-
ily available for reference.

State-Wide Alarm
I.B.M. Statistical Bureau
Complete control over all complaints received on complaint message cards issued at
the Central Complaint Room has been maintained through comparison by machine with
reports received from divisions and units. These cards are prenumbered with a central com-
plaint number and are time stamped when complaint is received, when the radio car is dis-
patched, and when the car has completed its assignment.
Since all telephones for emergency and complaint purposes have been removed from
police divisions, all requests for police service of any kind, whether of an emergency nature
or not, must be channeled through the Central Complaint Desk at Headquarters, thus assur-
ing complete control and recording of each incident reported.
In line with the procedures followed in many of the large city police departments in
the United States, the communications and records facilities of this department were cen-
tralized for the purpose of consolidating all information concerning police activities. In a
modern law enforcement agency the reports and communications facilities form the hub of
the administrative wheel, and it is generally agreed that the quality of the records main-
tained and the effectiveness of the communications system has a direct relation to the quality
of police administration.
CENTRAL COMPLAINT ROOM
Duties
The basic function of this room, its personnel and equipment, is to register every
complaint, incident , or request for police service as well as to dispatch police cars, ambulances,
and police boats to handle any complaint or incident requiring police action.
The Central Complaint Room has control over all communications equipment, con-
sisting of telephone, teletype, radio, and telegraph.

Accomplishments
During the period from December 1, 1957, to July 16, 1958, this unit was known
as the Bureau of Operations. In this period practically all of the equipment used by t he
Bureau of Operations was replaced by new and superior electronic devices to increase the
speed with which mobile units could be dispatched to the scene of incidents requiring police
attention. This new system operates in conjunction with the IBM system for the purpose
of uniform crime reporting. With the completion of these new installations the Central Com-
plaint Room came into being.
340,273 outgoing telephone messages and 5.50 toll calls made by the department
through our switchboard.
Approximately 315,973 emergency telephone messages received and handled at the
Complaint Desk through either "DE S— 1212" or the department intercommunicating
system.
Approximately 426,483 telephone messages received through our switchboard,
many of which were transferred to the Complaint Desk for handling.
211,159 teletype messages and 723 telegrams were processed; 10,(i4S of these tele-
type messages related to missing persons.
16,297 automobiles and registration plates were reported lost or stolen and 15,972
were reported recovered.
475,286 radio messages were sent, including "Sound Scriber" recording of same.
Five main transmitters (Station KCA 860, 2 at Police Headquarters and 3 at Suffolk
County Court House); 2 emergency transmitters at White Stadium, Jamaica Plain, for
civilian defense: two-way radio equipment in 122 automobiles; 29 combination patrolwagon
ambulances and 4 boat transmitters and receivers; •'!<> wired broadcast amplifiers: S pickup
receivers and 12 receivers on motorcycles were maintained and kepi in repair by members
of this unit.
An intercity and interdepartmental radio receiver and transmitter which is tuned
into a frequency with the Arlington, Barnstable. Brookline, Cambridge, Lynnfield, .Metro-

Multilith and Mimeograph
A multilith machine under direct supervision of an experienced operator enables this
department to prepare and complete printing of circulars containing photographs and finger-
prints of persons either reported missing or wanted for criminal offenses. It has proved to
be a distinct advantage in efficiency and speed in the issuance of department circulars, which
serve a very important function in the apprehension of fugitives from justice.
The multilith machine is completely equipped with camera, arc lights, vacuum frame,
which add to the varied output of this machine. This machine is capable of printing in
approximately two hours' time descriptive circulars of persons wanted. In some instances
circulars are completed and mailed to outside cities before a fugitive arrives at his desti-
nation.
This unit, in addition to the multilith machine, has a high-speed electric addresso-
graph machine and two electric mimeograph machines. These machines are used to make
daily manifolds, warrant manifolds, bulletins, and circular letters for the various units and
divisions, including Police School lessons.

Crime Prevention Bureau
J.HE Crime Prevention Bureau operates for the pre-
vention of delinquency among juveniles and maintains a
program of constant cooperation with all other agencies in
the child welfare field for the rehabilitation of maladjusted
children.
Duties in General
1. Develop a program of crime prevention intended
to eliminate factors that induce criminal tendencies among
children.
2. In this program enlist the aid of the general
public, all child welfare agencies, divisions and units of this
department.
3. Teach good citizenship, develop a proper mental
attitude of citizens toward law-enforcement agencies, and
especially educate the public and the police in the problem
of crime prevention and suppression of juvenile crime.
4. Determine persons and places which in any way
contribute to delinquency of children, investigating and
taking the necessary action to correct such conditions.
5. Supervise and inspect places of public amuse-
ment, hotels, bus and railroad stations, and places where
large numbers of people congregate.
6. Promote welfare of children, the sick, the aged,
and the needy, locating missing persons.
7. Investigate cases concerning boys and girls and
assist in the investigation of cases in which women are
involved

In accordance with the program of detecting and prosecuting all adults who are in
any way involved in unlawful activities concerning juveniles, 400 male and 86 female adults
were prosecuted.
The officers also brought to their respective stations, for questioning in regard to
criminal offenses committed on each division, 3,311 male and 42s female juveniles. A> a
result of interrogation, together with personal interviews with the parents of these children,
it was determined for the best interests of the children, parents, and the city to return them
to their parents without bringing them before the court for delinquency proceedings.
This part of the juvenile plan in Boston is the contribution of the Boston Police De-
partment toward- the rehabilitation of the child and is dramatically vindicated by the fact
that the number of recidivists is so small as to be unworthy of reduction to a percentage
figure. This fact completely justifies the continuance of this policy of returning the child
to the parents, after an investigation by the juvenile officer in the case of first offenders,
49
leaving no stigma of a juvenile record. After proper disciplinary action by the parents, the
child would not, in all probability, appear again in the over-all delinquency pattern.
There were 7,042 eases handled by the Juvenile Unit for this period, including those
brought to court and others returned to their parents for disciplinary action.
Certain innovations were also inaugurated by the Bureau, one being the recording on
central file cards of the name, address, description, and offense of juveniles, together with the
first names of the parents and the disposition of the case. This information has proved
invaluable, not only to this department but also to the police of outside cities and towns.
Another innovation is the use of the department photographers for the photographing
of homes in cases of neglected children. Such graphic illustrations have proved of great
value in the presenting of evidence before the court, dispensing with the sometimes incredible
testimony which was necessary to describe some living conditions with which children were
obliged to contend.
This Bureau presented forty lectures to as many different organizations in an effort
to educate the public as to the cause and scope of juvenile delinquency in this city and the
policy, plans, and procedures established by the Police Commissioner. In this connection,
a pilot group of high school pupils was taken to the Line-Up Room at Headquarters where a
lecture was given on juvenile delinquency, followed by a conducted tour of the Radio Turret,
in an effort to determine whether or not such a plan was feasible. Subsequently, two more
groups were taken on similar tours and the response from the students and teachers was very
encouraging. Consequently, since the ordinary business of the department will not lie im-
paired, these tours will be continued.
For the fiscal year ending November 30, 1958, the policewomen attached to the
Crime Prevention Bureau made 4,904 inspections of the following places: cafes and restau-
rants, bus and railroad terminals, and hotels and theaters. Fifty-two arrests were made as
a result of 402 investigations, including those involving voting women and children.
