POLICE  HIGHLY  REGARDED  THERE 


By  Lt.  Col.  Walter  A.  Luszki,  MPC 

U.  S.  Army  Military  Police  Branch 

Fort  Gordon,  Georgia 

Most  members  of  the  Military  Police 
Corps  who  have  been  in  Germany  since 
World  War  II  have  undoubtedly  been  im- 
pressed by  the  high  quality  and  thorough- 
ness of  training  of  the  German  city  police- 
men. The  average  policeman  on  the  job 
generally  gives  the  impression  of  being 
well  trained  and  sincere  in  his  effort  to  do 
a  helpful  and  constructive  job.  The  United 
States  Army  Military  Policemen  who  have 
worked  closely  with  them  have  almost  all 
had  something  good  to  say  about  the  cal- 
iber and  the  quality  of  performance  of 
German  police. 

Some  Americans  express  the  view  that 
the  present  German  policeman  is  more 
"democratic"  and  less  aloof,  indifferent, 
and  authoritarian  than  he  was  prior  to  the 
end  of  World  War  II.  The  German  po- 
liceman appears  more  friendly  to  pedes- 
trians, motorists,  and  those  seeking  infor- 
mation than  he  was  in  former  years.  He  is 
more  approachable  and  is  often  seen  giv- 
ing a  helping  hand  to  school  children  in 
crossing  streets. 

Higher  Status 

In  Germany,  I  got  the  impression  that  a 
policeman  has  a  much  higher  status  in  the 
community  and  is  looked  up  to  by  others 
much  more  than  he  is  in  the  United  States. 
The  job  of  a  policeman  is  one  to  be  proud 
of,  and  sons  often  follow  in  their  father's 
footsteps.  The  (jerman  policeman  appear- 
ed to  me  to  have  a  prestige  status  some- 
what similar  to  that  of  a  high  school  teach- 
er in  the  United  States. 

Because  I  was  impressed  with  their  per- 
formance on  the  job,  I  became  interested 
in  learning  something  about  the  kind  of 
training  which  they  receive.  The  oppor- 


tunity presented  itself  for  a  visit  to  the 
Mannheim-Heidelberg  Police  School  in 
Mannheim,  Germany,  about  a  year  ago. 
The  school  was  under  the  direction  of 
Chief  Inspector  Kasmann,  a  man  with 
many  years  in  police  work  and  in  training 
of  German  policemen. 

Four  Courses 

Chief  Inspector  Kasmann  kindly  gave 
me  the  curriculum  which  is  taught  at  the 
school  and  information  about  the  content 
of  the  training.  At  the  time  of  my  visit 
there  were  four  courses  given — Basic,  Ad- 
vanced, Criminal  Investigator's  and  Police 
Inspector's  courses. 

The  Basic  Course  for  Policemen  is  of 
particular  interest  because  of  the  wide 
range  of  training  which  is  considered  a 
minimum  for  police  work.  I  will  describe 
this  course,  giving,  first,  its  purpose  or 
aim,  second  the  subjects  and  hours  of  in- 
structions, third  a  survey  of  the  contents 
of  the  subjects,  and  lastly  a  comparison 
between  the  training  received  in  the  Ad- 
vanced Military  Police  program  at  Fort 
Gordon,  Georgia  and  that  in  the  German 
Basic  Course. 

Purpose  or  Aim  of  the  Course.  The  pur- 
pose or  aim  of  the  course  is  to  train  police 
candidates  who  are  coming  from  private 
life  in  the  basic  elements  of  the  police  pro- 
fession, and  to  train  them  to  such  a  level 
that  they  will  be  able  to  handle  city  and 
town  patrol  duties. 

Subjects  Taught 

Subjects  and  Hours  of  Instruction.  The 
Basic  Course  is  of  four  months  duration 
and  consists  of  468  hours  of  instruction. 
A  midsemester  examination  is  included  in 
the  course,  and  it  ends  with  a  written  and 
an  oral  final  examination.  The  instruction 
is  not  limited  to  theory  alone;  it  also  in- 
cludes practical  exercises.  Following  are 
the  subjects  taught  and  the  total  hours  of 
instruction  in  each  subject:

Total  Hours     .     .  468 

In  comparison,  students  enrolled  in  the 
Advanced  Individual  Military  Police  train- 
ing at  the  Military  Police  Training  Center 
at  Fort  Gordon,  (jeorgia,  receive  an  eight- 
week  course- of  instruction  (44  hours  per 
week),  or  a  total  of  352  hours.  However, 
this  instruction  includes  many  military 
subjects  which  prepare  the  individual  sol- 
dier for  dismounted  ground  combat. 

It  may  be  of  interest  to  show  the  scope 
of  the  subjects.  The  following  paragraphs 
outline  the  contents  of  each  of  die  subjects 
listed  above. 

Survey  On  Contents  of  Subjects

SERVICE  LAW.  Concept  and  character  of 
the  state,  constitutional  history,  the  basic 
law  of  the  West  German  Republic,  the

ORCHID  HOBBY 

Sergeant  Eugene  Noel  of  the  Berkeley 
Police  Department  was  given  nationwide 
recognition  for  his  hobby,  orchid  growing, 
recently  when  CBS  Radio's  "The  Garden 
Gate"  program,  heard  throughout  the 
country,  awarded  the  East  Bay  officer  its 
"Order  of  the  Green  Thumb"  in  a  Satur- 
day broadcast. 

Noel  spends  his  free  time  in  a  lath  gar- 
den house  at  the  rear  of  his  home  at  1519 
McGee  Ave.  in  Berkeley  raising  orchids 
and  cymbidiums  as  well  as  more  conven- 
tional flowers.  He  is  secretary  of  the  Or- 
chid Society. 

His  prizes  from  CBS  included  a  liberal 
seed  certificate,  a  pair  of  Green  Thumb 
garden  gloves,  a  Garden  Gate  book  and  a 
coral-red  Spartan  rose  plant. 


Traffic  accidents  in  the  United  States

WINTER   NIGHT   DRIVING   HINTS 


The  short  days  and  long  nights  of  win- 
ter time  make  it  imperative  that  motorists 
pay  more  attention  to  the  problems  of 
night  driving.  Here  are  some  time-worn 
tips  provided  by  the  National  Automobile 
Club  to  increase  awareness  ot  the  glare 
factor  in  dry  and  wet  weather. 

Driving  through  the  darkness,  the  pu- 
pils of  your  eyes  dilate  to  let  in  all  the 
light  they  can.  Then  around  the  bend 
comes  a  pair  of  glaring  headlights.  Your 
pupils  contract,  the  glare  passes,  and  your 
pupils  begin  to  dilate  again,  but  about 
sixty  times  more  slowly  than  they  dilated. 
In  this  period  of  comparative  blindness, 
which  may  last  for  several  seconds,  your 
car  travels  a  considerable  distance.  In  this 
distance  lies  danger. 

Look  To  Right 

What  can  you  do  about  glare  ?  You  can 
avoid  blinding  other  drivers  with  it  by 
knowing  your  headlights,  knowing  that 
they're  in  good  condition,  and  using  them 
properly.  You  can  avoid  being  blinded 
yourself  by  keeping  your  eyes  focused,  not 
on  the  glaring  headlights,  but  along  the 
right  side  of  the  road.  And  not  all  glare 
is  caused  by  the  other  driver's  faulty  head- 
lights. Some  of  it  is  caused  by  light-refract- 
ing particles  of  dust  on  your  windshield 
or  your  glasses.  Keep  them  clean. 

Raindrops  are  great  refractors  too. 
'When  it  rains,  keep  that  windshield  wiper 
working.  Watch  out  for  glare  from  the 


BUY  BEAM'S 

CHRISTMAS  DECANTER

car  behind.  If  its  lights  are  being  reflected 
right  into  your  eyes,  tilt  your  rear-view 
mirror  a  little  to  divert  the  beam. 

In  view  of  all  this  glare  and  reduced 
visibility  at  night,  how  fast  should  you 
drive.-'  The  general  idea  is  to  be  able  to 
come  to  a  full  stop  in  the  distance  ahead 
of  your  car  that  is  illuminated  by  your 
lights.  When  no  big  glare  is  coming  to- 
wards you,  that  can  mean  around  45  or 
50  miles  per  hour.  When  glare  is  there, 
the  safe  speed  can  drop  to  around  35  miles 
per  hour. 

If  you  should  be  walking  on  the  high- 
way at  night,  wear  or  carry  something 
white  and  walk  on  the  left  side  of  the  road 
facing  into  the  oncoming  traffic. 

When  walking  or  driving  at  night,  let's 
do  it  right.

An  official  examiner  for  the  California 
Department  of  Motor  'Vehicles  sat  silently

An  unusual  situation  ?  Not  too  unusual, 
according  to  the  National  Automobile 
Club.  Last  year  more  than  300  applicants 
for  California  drivers'  licenses  were  in- 
volved in  such  accidents  and  in  16  of  these 
accidents  the  examiner  was  injured.

Tonight  a  man  may  die  .  .  . 

It  will  happen  in  the  early  morning 
hours  and  he  will  either  be  in  the  warm 
confines  of  his  car  or  in  a  darkened  door- 
way .  .  .  alert  to  every  sound  and  move- 
ment around  him. 

But  above  all  he  will  be  waiting  .  .  . 

He  is  an  average  guy,  a  little  over  six- 
feet  tall,  thirty-seven  years  old,  married 
and  the  father  of  one  child. 

Tonight  he  is  wearing  a  blue  suit,  blue 
shirt,  black  tie  and  a  blue  hat. 

The  buttons  on  his  coat  are  brass;  there 
is  a  small  medal  on  his  hat  that  contain 
the  words  "Oro  En  Paz  Fierro  En  Guerra" 
meaning  "Gold  in  Peace;  Iron  in  War." 

Silver  Star 

The  piece  of  silver  over  his  heart  is  a 
star. 

It  has  seven  points,  a  number,  and  the 
words  "San  Francisco  Police  Department" 
written  on  it. 

This  man  is  a  police  officer  .  .  . 

Tonight  in  the  interests  of  law  and  or- 
der he  is  going  "Above  and  Beyond"  the 
call  of  duty;  for  at  this  moment  he  is 
staking  out  an  ex-con,  a  three-time  loser, 
a  habitual  criminal,  a  man  who  if  ever 
again  is  arrested  and  convicted  of  a  felony 
will  spend  the  rest  of  his  natural  life  be- 
hind the  bars  of  a  maximum  security 
prison. 

A  man  who  will  have  nothing  to  lose 
even  if  he  has  to  kill  to  escape  the  price 
of  arrest. 

He  has  been  a  robber,  burglar,  kidnap- 
per, dope  pusher,  user,  pimp,  drunk,  vag- 
rant, car  thief,  shoplifter,  receiver  of 
stolen  goods  and  other  infamous  types  of 
crime  are  also  recorded  on  his  record. 

22  Years  of  Crime

947   FUGITIVES   SOUGHT 


FBI  Director  J.  Edgar  Hoover  has  an- 
nounced that  a  record  total  of  947  fugi- 
tives being  sought  by  the  FBI  under  the 
Fugitive  Felon  Act  were  located  in  the  fis- 
cal year  ending  June  30,  19?7.  This  total 
represents  an  increase  of  nearly  five  per 
cent  over  the  previous  high  of  902  such 
fugitives  who  were  apprehended  in  the 
1956  fiscal  year. 

Under  the  Fugitive  Felon  Act,  the  FBI 
may  conduct  investigations  to  locate  per- 
son who  have  fled  across  state  lines  to 
avoid  prosecution,  custody  or  confinement 
for  any  of  the  following  crimes:  murder; 
kidnapping;  burglary;  robbery;  mayhem; 
rape;  assault  with  a  dangerous  weapon; 
arson  when  punishable  as  a  felony;  extor- 
tion when  accompanied  by  threats  of  vi- 
olence; or  attempts  to  commit  any  of  these 
crimes.  The  FBI  also  is  authorized  to  lo- 
cate persons  who  flee  interstate  to  avoid 
giving  testimony  in  any  criminal  proceed- 
ing involving  an  oflfense  which  is  punish- 
able by  imprisonment  in  a  penitentiary. 

The  FBI  Director  stated,  "Although 
the  Federal  law  provides  penalties  for  per- 
sons who  viuiate  the  Fugitive  Felon  Act, 
the  primary  purpose  of  our  investigations 
is  to  locate  these  fugitives  and  make  them 
available  to  state  and  local  authorities. 
Accordingly,  Federal  prosecution  general- 
ly is  declined  by  the  Department  of  Jus- 
tice, and  the  offender  is  immediately  avail- 
able to  the  jurisdiction  from  which  he  has 
fled." 

Mr.  Hoover  emphasized  that  local  proc- 
ess must  be  outstanding,  and  a  request  for

This  year,  the  FBI  is  sponsoring  a 
series  of  law  enforcement  conferences 
throughout  the  Nation  devoted  to  fugi- 
tive investigations.  During  the  first  six 
months  of  1957,  eighty-six  of  these  con- 
ferences were  held.  Approximately  100 
more  are  scheduled  for  the  remainder  of 
the  year.

FATIGUE  IS  DEADLY 

Fatigue  and  dozing  at  the  wheel  are 
definite  accident  causing  factors  warns  the 
California  Highway  Patrol. 

"An  average  of  over  270  drivers  a 
month  either  fatigued  or  asleep  at  the 
wheel  are  involved  in  traffic  accidents  on 
California  streets  and  highways,  "  declared 
Patrol  Commissioner  B.  R.  Caldwell. 
"These  factors  are  easily  controlled 
through  proper  consideration  of  the  haz- 
ards connected  with  driving  while  exces- 
sively tired  or  sleepy. 

"Fatigue  and  sleepiness  are  usually  the 
result  of  long  and  continuous  driving 
hours,  failure  to  get  adequate  rest  each 
night  while  on  a  trip,  and  trying  to  pack 
an  excessive  number  of  miles  into  a  few 
hours,"  Caldwell  stated.  "Single-car,  run- 
ning-ofF-roadway  type  accidents  frequently 
involve  a  driver  asleep  or  dozing  at  the 
wheel. 

"The  control  of  this  situation  is  simple," 
he  concluded.  "Shorter  driving  hours,  fre- 
quent rest  stops,  adequate  sleep  each  night, 
and  sharing  the  driving  will  help  eliminate 
accidents  caused  by  fatigue  and  sleepi- 
ness."

WHO'S  LIABLE? 

Do  you  drive  a  state  car  or  other  state 
equipment?  If  you  do,  are  you  always 
sure  you  are  using  the  vehicle  on  actual 
state  business,  so  that,  should  you  be- 
come involved  in  an  accident,  you  will 
not  personally  be  held  liable? 

Any  State  employee,  while  using  a 
state-owned  vehicle  on  official  business, 
is  fully  protected  under  insurance  taken 
out  by  the  State  against  liability  for  per- 
sonal injury  and  property  damage  to 
others.  There  is  no  personal  insurance 
on  the  employee  himself  except  under 
the  provisions  of  the  Workmen's  .Com- 
pensation Act,  which  covers  all  state  em- 
ployees injured  in  the  course  of  their  em- 
ployment. 

As  indicated  above,  the  key  factor  in 
determining  liability  of  a  state  employee 
who  incurs  an  accident  while  driving  a 
state  vehicle  is  whether  or  not  the  em- 
ployee is  on  official  state  business  at  the 
time  the  accident  occurs. 

According  to  J.  F.  Brady,  insurance 
adviser  with  the  Department  of  Finance, 
there  is  a  fair  interpretation,  based  on 
common  sense,  that  allows  the  employee 
to  take  the  state  vehicle  when  he  goes 
out  for  meals  or  if  he  wishes  to  pick  up 
some  luggage  at  his  home  prior  to  a  trip 
out  of  town.  He  cited  cases,  however, 
where  employees  were  held  personally 
liable  as  a  result  of  becoming  involved 
in  an  accident  when  operating  a  state  ve- 
hicle while  not  in  the  course  of  their  em- 
ployment. 

Brady  pointed  out  there  have  been  re- 
latively few  cases  of  misuse  of  state  cars, 
particularly  in  recent  years,  and  that 
many  times  the  offender  is  unaware  that 
he  is  doing  wrong.  He  urged  all  state 
employees  who  have  occasion  to  drive  a 
state  vehicle  to  exercise  the  utmost  dis- 
cretion and  operate  it  only  on  official 
duty.  Anyone  who  violates  tiiis  provision 
is  placing  himself  in  an  extremely  deli- 
cate position,  he  said.

"Hold  it,  what  do  you  think  you're 
doing  "  asked  Officer  Johnston  as  he  or- 
dered the  burglar  to  drop  his  screwdriver 
and  hammer. 

I-or  a  long  moment  policeman  and  rob- 
ber stared  at  each  other;  each  determined 
that  he  would  win  the  battle  for  survival. 

Then,  without  warning,  the  felon  raised 
his  hand  and  holding  the  hammer  in  an 
upraised  position  advanced  on  the  lawman 
threatening  to  strike  him  and  at  the  same 
time  telling  him  that  "You'll  never  send 
me  back  to  prison." 

It  was  a  grim  moment,  then,  with  one 
fast  step,  the  officer  grabbed  the  arm  of 
the  convict  and  wrestled  him  free  of  the 
deadly  weapon  and  after  another  brief 
struggle  was  able  to  handcuff  him  and 
call  for  the  wagon. 

Justice  Done 

Thus  a  hardened  and  dangerous  crimi- 
nal was  brought  to  justice  by  an  officer 
whose  courage  and  wisdom  enabled  him 
to  end  this  man's  burglaries  in  his  area, 
eliminate  an  undesirable  person  from  his 
beat,  and  yet  through  it  all  not  have  to 
shoot  or  kill  the  savage  ex-con  who  vowed 
that  he  "would  never  be  taken  back  to 
prison"  again. 

He  is  a  quiet  and  methodical  law- 
man .  .  . 

He  is  suspicious  and  always  alert  .  .  . 

It  is  because  of  this  that  he  caught  a 
"Hot  Prowler"  recently. 

"I  hear  someone  in  my  yard,"  came  the 
frantic  voice  over  the  phone. 

It  was  during  the  pre-dawn  hours  last 
February,  and  Officer  Dave  Utter  had 
just  completed  his  tour  of  Mission  Street 
in  San  Francisco's  outer  Ingleside  District 
when  the  call  came  over  the  police  car 
radio  that  a  woman  had  just  reported  a 
prowler  in  her  yard. 

As  Communications  gave  him  the  ad- 
dress, he  turned  his  car  toward  the  St. 
Francis  Woods  house  to  interview  the  pos- 
sible victim. 

As  he  approached  the  scene,  he  saw  a 
movement  in  the  bushes  to  his  right. 

It  was  a  large  white  figure  and  it  disap- 
peared back  into  the  shrubs  as  the  police 
car  neared  it. 

Bringing  the  car  to  a  stop  the  officer 
hurried  toward  the  fast  vanishing  fig- 
ure .  .  .

"Hey,  come  here,"  called  the  policeman, 
as  he  continued  to  pursue  through  the 
thick,  wet  fog. 

After  a  short  chase  the  officer  caught 
the  strange  looking  man  and  as  he  re- 
strained him  he  noticed  that  the  suspect 
had  blood  covering  his  hands  and  arms 
and  that  he  was  encased  entirely  in  a  cast 
with  only  his  eyes,  nose  and  mouth  show- 
ing. 

Realizing  that  the  man  might  be  in- 
volved in  some  way  with  the  prowler  call, 
Officer  Utter  returned  him  to  the  scene  of 
the  prowl  and,  after  a  short  investigation 
of  the  surrounding  area,  the  lawman 
found  that  one  service  station  and  ^our 
cars  had  been  broken  into  and  a  fifth  car 
stolen. 

Bloody  Glass 

Confronting  the  suspect  with  the  fact 
that  his  blood  was  all  over  the  broken 
glass  and  that  a  test  would  prove  it  to  be 
his  the  culprit  confessed  to  the  crimes  and 
was  convicted. 

Later  he  went  mad  and  is  now  in  a  hos- 
pital for  the  insane. 

Officer  Utter  who  has  been  on  the  force 
seven  years  has  three  commendations  to 
his  credit  and  has  this  past  year  caught  sev- 
eral wanted  burglars  and  numerous  times 
just  on  instinct  questioned  people  who 
were  either  wanted  by  the  police  or  were 
armed  with  guns  or  knives  unlawfully. 

Asked  what  he  thought  of  police  work 
and  its  duties,  he  said  simply,  "I  like  it, 
you  meet  lots  of  people  and  lots  of  times 
you  can  really  help  them  and  that's  the 
important  thing  in  this  job;  helping  peo- 
ple." 

So  it  goes  the  policeman  and  the  crimi- 
nal each  on  guard  one  against  the  other. 

The  beatman,  the  radio  car  officer,  it 
makes  no  difference  who  they  may  be,  they 
are  there  when  the  going  gets  tough  for 
the  citizen  who  needs  help. 

Some  are  good  officers,  some  are  hard- 
hitting, persistent,  suspicious,  and  all  have 
courage  and  guts;  these  are  the  men  who 
for  the  sake  of  making  it  a  better  city  are 
willing,  no  matter  how  hard  it  may  be  for 
them,  to  go  "Above  and  Beyond  the  Call 
of  Duty,"  and  it  is  they  we  salute  today.

DALY  CITY  POLICE 


Most  of  it  is  dark  and  cold  and  lonely. 

The  area  has  nearly  38,000  people  in 
it.  Fourteen  of  them  are  policemen  on  the 
night  shift  of  the  Daly  City  Police  Depart- 
ment. 

In  charge  of  the  night  watches  are  Cap- 
tain Roy  Beecher,  Sergeants  Dean  Wood, 
Dave  Hanson  and  Ricco  Benedetti. 

The  loneliest  and  the  deadliest  hours  are 
from  midnight  to  five  A.M. 

The  thief,  the  prowler,  the  rapist,  the 
murderer  are  all  out  on  the  street  at  this 
time  of  the  morning. 

Officer  Jim  Sunderland  was  on  his  rou- 
tine patrol  early  one  morning  when  he  re- 
ceived a  call  to  "investigate  a  reported 
prowler  in  the  rear  of  King's  Market." 

The  officer  sped  to  the  scene  and  began 
his  search  of  the  premises.  Slowly  and 
quietly  he  made  his  way  around  the  large 
building. 

Suddenly  as  the  good   looking  young 
officer  approached  an  alley  near  the  side 
entrance,  he  stopped  and  listened  ...  he 
heard  the  sound  of  running  feet. 
At  Gun's  Point 

Drawing  his  gun  he  turned  into  the 
alley  just  as  the  suspect  ran  at  him. 

"Halt,  halt  or  I'll  shoot  .  .  .  ,"  yelled 
Sunderland. 

As  the  policeman  raised  his  gun  to  take 
aim  the  suspect  stopped,  hands  in  the  air, 
to  surrender  quietly  to  the  waiting  officer. 

This  is  not  the  first  time  Jim  Sunder- 
land has  had  a  run  in  with  prowlers. 

In  another  case  he  had  to  hunt  through 
a  dark  deserted  auto  company  to  find  his 
quarry;  locating  him  finally  under  a  car 
the  officer  had  to  drag  the  culprit  out  but 
only  after  he  had  the  help  of  his  fellow 
workers. 

Five  years  with  the  Daly  City  Police 
Department  has  taught  Officer  Sunderland 
to  be  ready  for  anything  as  he  answers 
his  calls  during  the  night's  work. 

Ralph  Warren,  25,  has  just  joined  the 
department  and  was  assigned  to  the  West- 
lake  District  on  night  duty  when  he  re- 
ceived a  call  to  proceed  to  an  address  in 
his  section  to  investigate  a  report  of  a 
knifing. 

Victim  Stabbed 

Uf)on  his  arrival  on  the  scene,  the  of- 
ficer finds  that  the  complainant  was  cover- 
ed with  blood  and  extremely  frightened. 

The  story  was  that  a  man  had  broken 
into  the  victim's  apartment  and  for  no 
apparent  reason  began  to  stab  him ! 

Obtaining  a  description  of  the  knifer, 
the  new  young  officer  started  his  search  for 
the  assailant. 

The  night  was  cold  and  a  heavy  fog  lay 
thick  over  the  area  as  the  policeman  be-

gan  walking  up  and  down  the  streets  look- 
ing, listening,  and  watching  for  the  slight- 
est sound  that  might  betray  perhaps  a 
drunk  with  a  mean  streak,  a  crazy  man 
who  may  like  the  sight  of  blood,  or  maybe 
a  jealous  husband  who  was  angry  at  some 
competition. 

An  hour  went  hy,  and  still  no  sign  of 
the  suspect.  Wearily  the  officer  continued 
his  search  when  suddenly  he  sees  a  shad- 
ow coming  from  behind  a  parked  car ! 

With  his  hand  on  his  gun,  the  lawman 
edged  toward  the  car  from  the  rear  until 
he  is  just  behind  the  culprit. 

"Freeze,"  orders  Warren! 
Drops  Weapon 

Turning  around,  the  suspect  drop's  his 
weapon  as  the  officer  takes  him  into  cus- 
tody. 

Once  more  the  things  that  are  routine  to 
the  average  officer  and  frightening  to  the 
general  public  are  done  without  hestita- 
tion  by  the  police  department  as  part  of  a 
night's  work. 

Routine  patrols  are  not  the  only  thing 
that  the  Daly  City  Police  Department  does 
as  a  matter  of  course. 

Phil  LaBruzzo,  35,  was  assigned  to  a 
"Stakeout"  in  a  motel  recently  to  help  a 
San  Francisco  Police  Inspector  watch  the 
movements  of  a  forger. 

His  job  was  to  watch  and  wait  only, 
unless  the  suspect  tried  to  leave  the  pre- 
mises. 

Hours  went  by,  and  then  days,  and  yet 
the  forger  did  not  try  to  leave  the  motel. 

With  persistence  the  officers  kept  dog- 
gedly to  their  assigned  task. 

As  the  officers  began  another  nerve- 
racking  night  of  vigilance,  they  noted  an 
unusual  amount  of  noise  and  activity  com- 
ing from  the  adjoining  cabin. 

"Let's  go,  that  guy  is  packing  his  car!" 
said  the  Daly  City  Policeman. 

Tries  To  Escape 

Handcuffing  their  prisoner  to  the  bed, 
the  San  Francisco  Inspector  went  to  place 
a  call  to  his  office. 

This  should  have  been  the  end  of  an- 
other routine  job  for  the  two  men  but  it 
proved  quite  different,  for,  as  LaBruzzo 
waited  with  his  charge,  the  prisoner  com- 
plained that  his  handcuffs  were  too  tight, 
and  "cutting  me." 

Approaching  the  bed  to  check  the  com- 
plaint, LaBruzzo  was  suddenly  kicked  in  , 
the  gr.Din,  and  LaBruzzo  collapsed  to  the 
floor  in  a  haze  of  the  most  agonizing  pain, 
while  the  suspect  dove  through  a  window, 
handcuffs  and  all ! 

Getting  to  his  feet,  the  policeman,  des- 
pite his  pain,  started  to  pursue  the  culprit. 

Running  harder,  faster  faster  the  officer 
began  to  gain  ground. 

"Stop,  stop  or  I'll  shoot!"  called  the 
policeman.

Still  the  suspect  ran  .  . . 

Shoots  His  Man 

Then  a  shot  rang  out,  then  another  and 
in  the  stillness  the  sharp  sound  of  a  cry 
of  pain  was  torn  from  the  prisoner's  throat 
as  he  fell  to  the  ground, — a  .38  slug  in 
his  leg. 

On  the  desk  to  answer  the  calls  as  they 
come  in  are  Al  Nicolini,  23,  who  comes 
from  a  family  of  policemen,  his  dad  being 
a  lieutenant  in  the  regular  department  in 
San  Francisco. 

On  the  midnight  shift  is  the  newest 
communications  officer.  Bill  La  Forrest. 

Relieving  them  is  young  Jerry  Galindo, 
who  is  also  in  a  radio  car  most  of  the  time. 

It  is  this  officer  whom  your  writer  pre- 
dicts will  in  time  become  a  very  valuable 
asset  to  the  Daly  City  Police  Department, 
— for  in  his  spare  time  he  is  studying  all 
types  of  police  work;  fingerprinting,  iden- 
tification, and  modus  operandi  of  the  crim- 
inal as  well  as  other  sciences  in  the  police 
profession. 

The  Daly  City  Police  Department  also 
has  in  its  ranks  an  officer  who  holds  a 
degree  in  law. 

Steve  Steen  has  been  a  member  of  the 
force  for  two  years  and  although  only 
twenty-seven  years  of  age,  in  addition  to 
his  law  degree,  has  an  impressive  record 
in  the  department. 

Handles  Juveniles 

The  Juvenile  Officer  is  Charles  Terry, 
32,  and  a  member  of  the  force  for  the 
past  four  years. 

Aside  from  his  work  with  juveniles,  he 
performs  his  regular  duties  as  a  radio  car 
officer. 

George  Brooks  and  Dick  De  Losa  as- 
sisted each  other  one  evening  when  they 
spotted  a  stolen  car. 

It  all  started  when  De  Losa,  on  his 
motorcycle,  saw  a  car  go  through  a  stop 
sign. 

Giving  chase  he  sees  that  the  car  is 
listed  as  stolen  on  his  "Hot  sheet." 

Thirty,  forty,  fifty,  seevnty,  eighty, 
ninety  miles  an  hour  they  raced  along  till 
the  wanted  car  suddenly  stopped. 

Approaching  the  suspect,  the  officer  got

as  far  as  the  door  when  the  driver  started 
up  suddenly,  throwing  the  policeman  to 
the  ground. 

Gets  An  Assist 

Getting  to  his  feet,  the  officer  once  more 
gave  chase  to  the  speeding  car,  until  at 
last  after  a  five  mile  chase,  Dick  De  Losa's 
fellow-officer  ,  George  Brooks,  swung  into 
Sloat  Boulevard  at  19th  Ave.,  cutting  off 
the  wanted  car. 

This  time  with  guns  drawn,  the  two 
policemen  approached  the  car  whereupon 
the  culprits  surrenderd  without  a  struggle. 

It  would  be  interesting  to  note  at  this 
time  that  the  Daly  Cit>'  Police  Department 
is  equipped  with  a  three-way  radio  which 
makes  it  possible  to  talk  to  each  other  as 
well  as  to  the  station  both  in  radio  cars 
and  on  the  motorcycle  as  well. 

Each  of  the  cars  in  operation  are  one- 
man  operated;  however,  the  things  that 
each  man  carries  with  him  as  an  aid  to  his 
work  are  equivalent  to  not  only  one  more 
partner,  but  several, — their  courange! 
While  Off  Duty 

The  courage  that  the  Daly  City  Police 
maintain  lasts  not  only  during  the  working 
period,  but  even  when  the  officers  are  off 
duty  and  on  their  own  time,  as  was  proved 
by  Jim  Bergstrom,  28. 

The  young  policeman  had  just  gone  off 
duty  and  had  stopped  by  to  see  his  friends 
in  a  cocktail  lounge  near  by. 

As  the  lawman  sat  talking,  two  men 
entered  the  bar  and  proceeded  to  hold  it 
up!  Watching  the  bandits,  he  wondered 
what  would  happen  to  him  if  he  could 
sneak  out  to  get  help  to  capture  the  cul- 
prits, before  they  made  their  escape. 

He  was  not  long  in  finding  out, — for 
the  culprits  were  suddenly  leaving  the 
premises. 

"Hold  it,  I'm  a  police  officer!"  cried 
Bergstrom,  giving  chase! 

One  look  at  the  determined  young  man 
and  the  culprits  fled  down  the  street  with 
Bergstrom  in  hot  pursuit! 

"Halt,  or  I'll  shoot,"  yelled  Bergstrom. 

Still  they  ran! 

Gun  Battle  Starts 

Abruptly  the  midnight  silence  was  shat- 
tered by  a  gun  blast  then  another  and  then 
still  another! 

Policeman  and  fugitives  battling  for 
survival  in  the  cold,  unfeeling  night! 

Then  it  was  over, — the  lawman  had 
lost  the  battle  and  the  robbers  had  made 
good  their  getaway. 

But,  had  he  lost  the  battle  ? 

He  had  tried  to  stop  them,  he  had 
shown  raw  courage  when  he  went  after 
them  in  the  first  place,  and  he  did  get  an 
excellent  description  that  helped  to  identi- 
fy them  when  they  were  apprehended  in 
Stockton  a  short  time  later  I 

Officer  Dick  Sims  is  the  finder  of  many 
stolen  cars  in  the  Daly  City  sector. 


Stolen  Car! 

Aside  from  this  feat,  he  has  worked 
with  juveniles  in  his  area  a  great  deal  of 
the  time,  and  is  generally  a  good  man  to 
have  around  no  matter  what  the  task  may 
be. 

Frank  Murray,  an  alert  and  efficient 
young  man  who  has  been  with  the  depart- 
ment for  about  two  years,  was  on  the  alert 
for  speeders,  fights  and  prowlers  one 
night  when  he  saw  a  stolen  car  speed  past 
him  headed  down  Mission  Street,  with  a 
South  San  Francisco  police  car  in  hot  pur- 
suit! 

Seventy,  eighty,  ninety  miles  an  hour 
they  raced ! 

Passing  the  two  cars  at  one  hundred 
miles  an  hour,  the  officer  became  a  human 
road  block  a  few  yards  away ! 

As  the  speeding  car  came  into  view,  it 
began  slowing  to  a  halt. 

When  the  officers  came  up  to  arrest  the 
young  offenders,  they  found  that  they  had 
stolen  a  gun,  also,  and  had  intended  to 
rob  a  store. 

One  of  the  boys  who  was  nineteen  is 
now  serving  a  one  to  ten  year  sentence  in 
San  Quentin  penitentiary. 

He's  Newest  Man 

The  newest  man  on  the  Daly  City  Police 
Force  is  young  Dick  Brewer,  who  has 
been  with  the  department  only  two 
months. 

He,  too,  comes  from  a  family  of  police- 
men, as  his  father  is  a  member  of  the 
Westlake  Police. 

Last,  but  not  least  on  this  efficient  little 
city's  police  force  is  Bob  Crocker,  a  mem- 
ber of  the  department  for  the  past  five 
years. 

Police  work  is  his  business,  and  he  does 
it  well!

Careful,  vigilant,  and  serious,  this  offi- 
cer has  made  a  record  number  of  arrests 
of  those  who  have  violated  the  law. 

And  in  charge  of  these  fine,  efficient 
officers,  is  Chief  of  Police  Roland  Petro- 
cchi,  a  fifteen  year  member  of  the  Daly 
City  Police  Force! 

His  integrity  and  fairness  are  only  two 
of  the  many  attributes  that  make  him  the 
excellent  chief  that  he  is  ! 

The  men  of  his  organization  are  out  to 
do  their  very  best  because  they  are  proud 
of  him  and  the  department  of  which  they 
are  members ! 

Fine  Reputation 

His  Deputy  Chief  is  Roy  McLarnin,  a 
quiet,  hard-working  officer  whose  only 
wish  is  to  have  the  "Best  Police  Depart- 
ment in  the  world !" 

His  wish  is  very  close  to  being  granted, 
for  this  department  is  rated  second  with 
the  Berkeley  Police  Department,  who  have 
just  a  slight  edge! 

But  no  matter  who  leads,  there  is  still 
the  job  to  do ! 

No  matter  how  great  the  odds,  there  are 
still  only  fourteen  men  to  handle  the  38,- 
000  odds  against  them ! 

Most  of  it  is  cold  and  dark  and  lonely ! 

The  loneliest  and  deadliest  hours  are 
from  midnight  to  five  in  the  morning! 

The  thief,  the  prowler,  the  rapist,  and 
the  murdered  are  all  out  at  this  time  of 
the  night! 

But  so  is  the  Daly  City  Police  Depart- 
ment with  its  brave  and  courageous  mem- 
bers, and  it  is  to  them  that  we  say,  "It's 
a  job  well  done!"

PRESTON  POLICE  PISTOL  CHAMP 


I  suppose  I  could  start  this  off  with  the 
old,  well-known  expresion,  "Ladies  and 
gentlemen,  the  winner  —  and  still  the 
Champion— ED  PRESTON  !  !  !  "  Yep, 
Ed  did  it  again  this  year  with  a  grand  ag- 
gregate score  of  583  as  against  his  last 
year's  score  of  586.  Not  much  of  a  differ- 
ence but  still  good  enough  to  win.  After 
the  tournament  we  find  Sgt.  Karl  Schau- 
gaard  and  Dick  Willett  tied  for  second 
with  Karl  getting  the  nod  via  the  Creed- 
more  schedule.  L.xst  year  Karl  wound  up 
in  the  seventh  place  and  Dick  found  him- 
self in  sixth  place.  In  the  other  classes 
none  of  the  last  year  winners  made  the 
grade  so  we  have  another  set  of  class  win- 
ners for  1957. 

I  might  add  that  this  year's  tournament 
was  a  huge  success  with  over  400  indivi- 
dual contestants  and  some  100  teams  on 
the  line.  And  as  you  probably  know,  the 
aggregate  scores  were  figured  by  taking 
the  two  high  scores  out  of  the  three  and 
tabulated  on  that  basis. 

The  last  match,  not  the  aggregate,  was 
won  in  the  Master  1st  class  by  Dick  Wil- 
lett of  Taraval  with  a  291.  The  Master 
class  was  won  by  Jack  Southern  of  Mis- 
sion, with  a  276,  the  Expert  class  winner 
was  Frank  Surina  with  a  265  while  R. 
Schneider,  of  Richmond,  took  the  sharp- 
shooter match  with  a  250.  Rangemaster 
Bob  Abernethy  won  the  Marksman  class 
with  a  230  and  the  Marksman  2nd  top 
day's  score  went  to  A.  Alves  of  Central 
with  a  210.  So  much  for  the  last  day's 
scores — they  all  counted  in  the  final  scores. 

Master  Class  "Winners 

The  aggregate  individual  winner  in  the 
Master  Class  was  E.  Caldwell  with  a  552, 
second  was  A.  Esperance  with  a  550  and 
Chas.  Bates  with  a  550.  This  class  was 
dominated  by  the  Traffic  Bureau  as  all 
three  winners  were  of  that  squad. 

In  the  Expert  Class  C.  J.  Smith  took  the 
top  prize  with  a  521,  closely  followed  by 
Insp.  Duveneck  with  a  519  who  in  turn 
tied  with  C.  Thum  of  Richmond  but  lost 
out  via  the  Creedmore  route  and  finished 
in  the  third  place. 

Traffic  officer  H.  Kind  won  the  Sharp- 
shooter class  with  a  501  who  tied  with  J. 
Ruggeirio  of  Central  with  another  501 — • 
the  Creedmore  route  set  Ruggeirio  in  sec- 
ond place  and  F.  Woods,  of  Traffic  was 
given  the  same  treatment  with  his  501  and 
landed  in  the  third  spot.  This  was  a  nice 
threeway  tie  and  took  a  bit  of  doing  to 
finally  break  it  down. 

The  Marksman  Class  had  another  tie 
for  first  and  second  place  when  Sgt.  Eck- 
hardt  of  Ingleside  and  K.  Carstensen  of 


By  J.    Ross   DlINNICAN 


Traffic  finished  with  each  a  461.  Creed- 
mored  out  of  1st  place  was  Carstensen  so 
the  good  sergeant  was  given  the  nod  and 
the  top  prize.  In  third  place  was  R.  Craw- 
ford of  the  Park  station  with  a  456.

man  received  more  than  one.  All  other 
place  winners  rsceived  medals.  And  of 
course,  all  aggregate  individual  winners 
will  receive  the  customary  $25  Govern- 
ment bond  that  the  Journal  gives  out 
each  year.  Thru  a  mix-up  I  was  unable  to 
attend  the  last  match  to  distribute  the 
bonds  and  the  editor  was  out  of  town  but 
I  am  getting  the  addresses  of  the  winners 
and  will  forward  the  bonds  in  due  time. 
In  fact  they  may  have  them  by  the  time 
this  issue  of  the  Journal  is  off  the  press. 

The  team  matches  always  produce  lots 
of  spirit  and  this  year  was  no  different — 
only  it  seemed  there  was  more  spirit  than 
ever  before.  In  fact  the  tempo  of  the  team 
matches  increases  each  year. 

The  Inspector's  team  No.  1  finally  came 
in  the  winner  over  Richmond  No.  1  team 
by  a  very  close  2335  to  2330 — this  was 
anybody's  match  going  into  the  third  day's 
shooting  but  inspectors  Jorgensen,  Al- 
brecht,  Preston  and  Ahern  proved  a  bit 
too  powerful  over  Richmond's  Chaney, 
Anderson,  Schaugaard  and  Galousin  and 
set  them  down  in  the  second  spot  so  the 
inspectors  can  still  hold  the  trophy  in  their 
rooms — the  envy  of  the  other  teams.  Third 
place  team  was  the  Traffic  boys  composed 
of  Breman,  Johnson,  Callawaert  and  Cald- 
well who  finished  the  season  with  a  2290. 

Inspectors  Best  Experts 
The  Expert  class  aggregate  trophy  win- 
ner was  the  Inspector's  Team  No.  2  com- 
posed of  Jones,  Lingafelter,  Lacau  (last 
year's  Sharpshooter  grand  aggregate  win- 
ner), Overstreet  with  a  score  of  2176.  Sec- 
ond place  was  taken  by  Central  No.  1  with 
a  2168  and  third  spot  was  filled  by  North- 
ern No.  1  with  a  2168. 

The  Sharpshooter  aggregate  trophy  was 
taken  by  the  number  2  team  from  Mission 
Station  which  team  was  composed  of 
Dawe,  Bulen  (last  year's  Marksman  class 
grand  aggregate  winner),  Cook  and  Pos- 
ner  with  a  score  of  2046.  With  a  score  of 
2038  the  Inspectors  No.  4  dropped  into 
second  place  and  in  the  third  place  was 
Northern  No.  2  with  a  score  of  2023.

NEW  DOWNHILL  TRUCK  SPEEDS 


Establishment  of  reduced  downhill 
speed  limits  for  trucks  on  eight  mountain 
highway  grades  was  announced  by  the 
State  Department  of  Public  Works. 

The  speed  reductions  are  the  first  to  be 
made  under  a  law  enacted  by  the  1957 
Legislature  in  an  effort  to  reduce  the  dan- 
ger of  run-away  trucks  on  long  downhill 
stretches. 

Grades  on  US  Highways  99,  101,  and 
40  are  included  in  the  speed  zoning 
changes.  The  new  truck  speed  limits  on 
these  sections  range  from  20  to  35  miles 
an  hour,  in  place  of  the  general  statewide 
truck  speed  limit  of  45  miles  an  hour. 

Downhill  sections  affected  by  the  reduc- 
tions follow: 

US  99 — Shasta  Springs  Grade,  north  of 
Dunsmuir,  Siskiyou  County;  Grapevine 
Grade,  Kern  County,  and  Three-Mile  and 
Five-Mile  Grades,  both  north  of  Castaic 
in  Los  Angeles  County. 

US  101 — Cuesta  Grade,  north  of  San 
Luis  Obispo,  and  Nojoqui  Grade,  north 
of  Santa  Barbara. 

US  40 — Glen  Alder  Grade,  between 
Colfax  and  Gold  Run,  Placer  County,  and 
Donner  Grade,  Nevada  County. 

Recommended  By  McCoy 

The  new  zoning  will  become  effective 
with  the  posting  of  signs.  The  signs  will 
show  the  speed  limit  figure  under  a  plate 
bearing  the  word  "truck"  in  capital  letters. 

The  speed  limit  reductions  were  recom- 
mended by  State  Highway  Engineer  G.  T. 
McCoy  following  engineering  and  traffic 
studies  by  the  Division  of  Highways. 

Under  a  section  added  to  the  California 
Vehicle  Code  by  the  recent  session  of  the 
Legislature  the  Department  of  Public 
Works  may  reduce  truck  speed  limits  on 
descending  grades  after  studies  show  that 
"the  speed  of  45  miles  per  hour  is  more 
than  is  reasonable  or  safe  ..." 


The  new  law  calls  for  reductions  to  "a 
speed  limit  of  40,  35,  30,  25,  or  30  miles 
per  hour,  whichever  is  found  most  ap- 
propriate to  facilitate  the  orderly  move- 
ment of  traffic  ..." 

Truck  Speed  Zones 

More  detailed  descriptions  of  the  truck 
speed  zones  are  listed  by  county  below. 

Los  Angeles  County — Five-Mile  Grade

Comparison  Between  United 

States  Army  and  German 

Training 

There  are  many  similarities  between  the 
training  received  by  the  United  States 
Army  Military  Policeman  and  the  German 
city  policeman.  On  the  other  hand,  there 
are  some  subjects  which  are  not  covered 
in  the  United  States  Army  program  and 
vice  versa. 

Both  training  programs  include  instruc- 
tion in  law,  but  the  German  policeman 
receives  legal  training  which  is  both  more 
extensive  and  more  varied.  For  example, 
he  receives  training  in  the  basic  law  of  the 
West  German  Republic,  the  Constitution 
of  Baden-Wurttemburg,  which  is  the  state 
in  which  the  policeman  will  be  operating;

national vehicle  traffic  laws,  introduction 
to  civil  laws,  and  laws  related  to  citizen- 
ship. 

Both  training  programs  include  train- 
ing in  current  affairs  and  citizenship.  In 
the  United  States  this  instruction  is  in- 
cluded in  the  Character  Guidance  and 
Troop  Information  program.  In  the  Ger- 
man program  general  political  affairs  are 
discussed  to  stimulate  interest  in  the  de- 
velopment of  Germany  and  of  the  world; 
during  the  entire  German  course  it  is  the 
aim  of  all  instructors  to  make  the  young 
trainee  not  only  a  good  policeman  but  a 
good  citizen.  Thus,  it  is  clear  that  the  im- 
portance of  citizenship  training  is  recog- 
nized by  the  German  police  just  as  it  is 
by  the  American  Military  Police. 
First  Aid  Given 

Both  the  prospective  German  policeman 
and  the  United  States  Army  trainee  receive 
training  in  first  aid  for  various  types  of 
injuries,  in  first  aid  for  fainting,  burns, 
poisonings,  etc.,  in  bandaging  and  in  arti- 
ficial respiration.  The  German  training, 
however,  is  more  extensive  than  the 
United  States.  German  policemen  are 
trained  in  anatomy  and  functioning  of  the 
individual  organs.

Physical  training  is  another  subject  com- 
mon to  both  the  German  and  the  United 
States  trainee.  Both  receive  instruction  in 
judo  and  other  forms  of  close  combat 
without  the  use  of  weapons.  The  Germans 
include  physical  training  in  their  program 
to  raise  physical  efficiency  and  to  serve  as 
relief  from  mental  stress.  Physical  fitness 
and  skill  in  unarmed  combat  give  the  po- 
liceman a  sense  of  confidence  when  deal- 
ing with  disturbers  of  the  peace  and  help 
him  avoid  the  illegal  use  of  weapons.  The 
United  States  trainee  participates  in  such 
conditioning  exercises  as  relays,  mass 
games  and  rifle  exercises.  The  German  stu- 
dent, on  the  other  hand,  practices  gymnas- 
tics as  part  of  his  physical  training  pro- 
gram. One  thing  the  Germans  do  not  need 
to  worry  about  is  the  annual  physical  fit- 
ness test. 

Well  Taught 

Both  United  States  Army  Military  Po- 
lice and  German  students  receive  some 
training  in  criminal  investigation.  The 
German  trainee,  however,  receives  more 
training  in  this  area.  His  training  program 
includes  the  fundamentals  of  criminal  in- 
vestigation, techniques  in  first  measures  to 
be  taken  in  the  case  of  crimes  and  offenses, 
and  cooperation  between  ordinary  police 
and  criminal  police. 

Other  areas  of  instruction  received  by 
both  types  of  trainees  include  authority 
and  jurisdiction,  handling  of  unusual  sit-

uations  (such  as  mobs  and  civil  disturb- 
ances), promotion  of  safety,  public  rela- 
tions, traffic  control,  preparation  of  re- 
ports, and  handling  of  complaints.  Both 
the  United  States  Army  and  the  German 
trainees  receive  weapons  training,  includ- 
ing firing  of  weapons  and  other  means  of 
intervention,  such  as  the  use  of  handcuffs 
and  police  clubs.  The  German  training 
places  special  emphasis  on  instruction  in 
the  art  of  intervention,  that  is,  the  ability 
to  know  when  to  move  into  a  situation  and 
when  to  refrain  from  coming  in. 

Training  received  by  Military  Police 
and  not  by  the  German  trainees  includes: 

1.  Training  in  radio  communication 
and  use  of  the  phonetic  alphabet,  radio 
transmission  techniques  and  procedures, 
including  voice  procedures.  German  train- 
ing in  communication  is  limited  to  a  lec- 
ture by  a  guest  speaker  on  communication 
equipment. 

2.  Training  in  driving  and  motor  main- 
tenance. 

3.  Training  of  the  strictly  military  type 
which  is  understandably  not  given  to  Ger- 
man civil  police. 

Such  training  consists  of  individual  pro- 
tective measures  against  chemical,  biologi- 
cal and  radiological  attack,  intelligence, 
interior  guard,  marches  and  bivouacs,  tac- 
tical training,  physical  security  of  military 
installations,  and  Geneva  Conventions  re- 
garding prisoners  of  war. 

As  might  be  expected,  the  Germans  re- 
ceive certain  training  which  is  not  covered 
in  the  United  States  training  program.  It 
consists  of  youth  protection,  weights  and 
measures,  nature  protection,  state  patrol 
service,  treatment  of  juveniles,  drunks  and 
mentally  sick,  handling  lost  and  found 
items,  police  intervention  in  private  affairs, 
welfare  and  social  aid  organization,  Ger- 
man spelling,  sentence  structure  and  es- 
says, and  training  in  the  use  of  fire  hose. 
From  the  scope  of  the  German  basic 
training  program,  it  is  easy  to  understand 
the  good  impression  which  the  German 
policeman  gives  and  the  general  high 
quality  of  his  work. 

The  above  opinions  do  not  neces- 
sarily reflect  the  views  of  the  U.  S. 
Army— The  Police  Chief

77.869,284   DRIVERS 

There  were  77,869,284  licensed  motor-vehicle  operators  in  the  United 
States  during  1956,  state  agencies  reported  to  B.  D.  Tallamy,  federal  highway 
administrator,  Bureau  of  Public  Roads,  U.  S.  Department  of  Commerce.  Mo- 
tor vehicle  registration  reached  64,437,419  in  the  same  year. 

In  the  7  years  since  1949,  the  first  year  in  which  such  data  was  compiled, 
the  number  of  licensed  drivers  has  risen  18.5  million  while  vehicle  registra- 
tions rose  20.3  million.  Thus  drivers  increased  31  per  cent  at  the  same  time 
that  vehicles  increased  46  per  cent. 

The  ratio  of  licensed  cirivers  to  registered  vehicles  has  steadily  decreased 
from  1.34  drivers  for  each  vehicle  in  1949  to  1.21  in  1956.  Among  individual 
States,  the  1956  ratio  was  less  than  1.1  in  California,  Michigan,  Montana, 
North  Dakota,  Oklahoma,  Texas,  and  Washington.  The  highest  ratio;  about 
1.4,  was  found  in  Indiana,  South  Carolina,  and  West  Virginia.

THE  KEY  IS  YOU 

If  you  drive  an  automobile  remember 
this — the  key  to  preventing  traffic  acci- 
dents is  you  yourself,  says  the  California 
State  Automobile  Association.  Being  cour- 
teous and  cooperating  with  other  motor- 
ists are  the  most  important  parts  of  driv- 
ing safely.

CAUGHT  AFTER   26  YEARS 

Then  there's  the  New  Englander  whose  tail  hghts  burned  out  and  with  it  went  his 
independence. 

Seems  that  he  had  scorned  to  get  a  driver's  hcense  and  for  more  than  26  years  had 
been  barrehng  around  the  byways  of  Connecticut  and  other  New  England  states  without 
one. 

Then  one  night,  according  to  the  National  Automobile  Club,  his  tail  light  burned 
out.  He  didn't  notice  it  but  an  officer  did.  The  officer  stopped  our  man,  found  out  about 
the  license  situation,  and  took  steps  to  correct  it. 

Now  our  New  Englander  is  driving  again,  but  this  time  with  full  benefit  of  that  con- 
ventional licenes. 


DRIVER  LICENSES 

Driver  licenses  issued  by  the  California 
State  Department  of  Motor  Vehicles,  are 
increasing  at  the  average  of  15.48  per  cent 
per  month,  according  to  the  National  Au- 
tomobile Club.

REPEAT  WINNER  is  Inspector  Ed.  Preston  (right)  whose  eagle  eye  and  steady  nerve  with  a  gun  won  him  the  San  Francisco  Police  Depart- 
ment's annual  pistol  shoot  for  the  second  year.  Journal  range  expert  J.  Ross  Dunnigan  checks  the  target  with  the  winnah ! 


(Continued  from  page  18) 

There  was  only  one  team  finished  in  the 
Marksman  2nd  class  so  Gisler,  Crawford, 
Haskell  and  Wiener  took  their  1902 
points,  set  'em  on  the  table  and  carried 
home  the  trophy. 

Smooth  Tournament 

All  in  all  it  was  an  excellently  run  and 
managed  tournament  and  a  large  hand- 
clap and  salute  to  Rangemaster  Bob  Aber- 
nethy  and  his  group  of  well-trained  range 
experts.  It  was  a  pleasure  to  see  how 
smoothly  the  whole  affair  went  off.  I  know 
the  boys  are  all  looking  forward  to  the 
matches  in  1958. 

Just  in  case  the  boys  forget  it  might  be 
well  to  know  that  each  officer  is  allowed 
100  rounds  of  free  ammunition  a  month 
for  practice  purposes  and  this  coupled 
with  the  expert  advice  and  instruction  you 
can  obtain  from  the  range  personnel  one 


interested  in  shooting  could  develop  a 
whole  lot  in  the  course  of  a  year.  Why 
not  give  it  a  trial  and  as  the  last  line  of 
the  Range  Bulletin  puts  it  "Start  practic- 
ing for  1958  now!"

WINTER  SAFETY 

Winterize  your  driving  habits  if  you 
expect  to  cope  with  wet,  slippery  pave- 
ments says  the  California  Highway  Pa- 
trol. 

"Rain  in  the  valleys  and  coastal  re- 
gions and  snow  in  the  mountain  areas 
call  for  special  driving  techniques  if  safe- 
ty is  to  be  maintained,"  declared  Patrol 
Commissioner  B.  R.  Caldwell.  "A  few 
simple  rules,  if  followed,  will  help  you 
winterize  your  driving." 

Caldwell  listed  the  following  rules  to 
guide  drivers  during  the  winter  months. 

1.  Be  sure  your  brakes,  tires,  wind- 
shield wipers,  and  steering  mechanism 
are  in  top  condition. 

2.  Keep  all  windows  and  the  wind- 
shield clear  at  all  times.  This  is  particu- 
larly urgent  before  starting  out  when  the 
windshield  and  other  windows  are  cover- 
ed with  frost  or  snow.  Peek-hole  driving 
is  hazardous;  clear  the  entire  windshield 
and  all  windows  before  driving. 

3.  Slow  down  in  wet  weather.  Wet 
pavements  are  slippery  and  require  ex- 
tra distance  between  your  car  and  the 
one  you  are  following  so  you  can  stop 
in  time  if  an  emergency  arises. 

4.  Carry  extra  clothing  or  blankets 
when  driving  into  mountain  areas.  Check 
at  your  local  Patrol  or  Division  of  High- 
ways office  for  road  and  weather  condi- 
tions before  leaving.

BAD   "MAN"    FOR   BANDITS 


There  always  seemed  to  be  something 
a  little  strange  about  Charley  Parkhurst. 
He  was  quiet,  retiring,  had  no  close 
friends,  and  had  little  or  nothing  to  do 
with  women.  To  top  it  all,  when  he  ar- 
rived in  San  Francisco  at  the  peak  of  the 
gold  rush  fever,  he  had  no  desire  to  hunt 
gold.  He  just  wanted  to  drive  stagecoach. 

And  drive  stagecoach  he  did.  In  no  time 
at  all,  according  to  the  National  Automo- 
bile Club,  he  became  one  of  the  toughest, 
most  skilled,  and  most  rip-roaring  drivers 
who  ever  held  a  handful  of  reins.  He  was 
soon  the  unchallenged  "boss  of  the  road" 
on  such  runs  as  Stockton  to  Mariposa,  San 
Juan  to  Santa  Cruz,  and  the  famous  San 
Jose  to  Oakland. 

On  one  of  his  first  times  out,  Charley 
was  held  up  by  bandits.  Since  older  drivers 
had  told  him  not  to  resist,  he  didn't.  But 
something  burned  Charley  about  the  way 
the  bandits  rode  off  with  the  strongbox 
and  disappeared  around  the  bend  of  the 
road.  He  swore  that  that  would  never  hap- 
pen again. 

Thieves  Bested 

It  didn't.  In  some  fifteen  tries,  the  ban- 
dits always  came  off  second  best  with 
Charley.  Ducking  down,  he'd  whip  up  his 
horses  and  trample  the  bandits  into  sub-

mission  or  death.  If  that  failed,  he  had  a 
gun  and  a  draw  that  didn't.  The  famous 
"Sugarfoot,"  who  had  once  held  up  a 
whole  company  of  cavalry,  turned  his 
Winchester  on  Charley  and  ended  up  dead 
with  a  bullet  through  his  lungs.  Charley 
was  just  bad  medicine  for  bandits. 

Time  passed,  and  so  did  Charley.  He 
died  in  1879  at  his  little  cabin  about  six 
miles  out  of  Watsonville.  And  only  then 
did  his  friends  find  out  that  "Charley"  was 
a  woman,  a  woman  who  had  masqueraded 
as  a  man  for  more  than  30  years  and  done 
a  real  man's  job  in  a  real  man's  way.

GROCERS   FIGHT   "TILL  TAPPING" 


Losses  from  till  tapping  cost  grocers 
thousands.  A  film  recently  produced  by 
the  East  Bay  Grocers  Association,  Oak- 
land, California,  has  already  been  effective 
in  cutting  losses  from  till  tapping  offenses 
in  Northern  California.  The  movie  is  be- 
ing made  available  through  the  local  gro- 
cers association  otlices  to  their  members  at 
no  charge. 

The  shots  for  the  film  were  made  with- 
out the  knowledge  of  the  store  clerks  and 
as  a  result,  interest  is  high  during  the  en- 
tire film.  The  actors  are  two  narcotics  ad- 
dicts whose  ser\'ices  were  obtained  by  the 
grocers  association  from  the  Oakland  Po- 
lice Department.  These  two  men  make 
their  living — $200  per  day — tapping  tills, 
and  on  this  film  show  complete  routine. 

The  picture,  entitled  "This  Is  Your 
Loss,"  runs  22  minutes  and  is  l6mm 
sound  and  color.  A  narration  gives  the 
complete  story  of  how  and  why  the  movie 
was  produced.

HOLIDAY  DRINKING 

SACRAMENTO  —  Drinking  drivers 
received  special  attention  during  the  year- 
end  holidays  according  to  plans  developed 
by  the  California  Highway  Patrol  and  the 
State  Department  of  Alcoholic  Beverage 
Control. 

Patrol  Commissioner  B.  R.  Caldwell 
and  ABC  Director  Russell  S.Munro  agreed 
to  the  two-pronged  attack  on  the  drinking 
driver  problem  and  promised  professional 
enforcement  action  against  all  violators. 

"Our  cooperative  enforcement  efforts 
have  brought  favorable  results  in  the  past," 
stated  Munro.  "Our  agents  again  wqrked 
closely  with  the  Patrol  in  a  concentrated 
program  designed  to  control  the  excessive 
drinking  situation  on  and  off  the  high- 
ways." 

"We  asked  all  military  and  local  police 
agencies  to  join  us  in  the  effort  during  the 
holidays  and  look  forward  to  a  broader 
and  more  effective  program,"  Caldwell 
said.  "An  extensive  public  information 
program  was  also  used."

HOW  ABOUT  THIS? 

Juveniles  under  17  are  prohibit- 
ed from  driving  cars  between  mid- 
night and  5  a.m  under  a  new  Min- 
nesota law.  The  law  became  effec- 
tive recently  when  Governor  Or- 
ville  L.  Freeman  signed  a  bill  pass- 
ed by  the  current  Minnesota  Legis- 
lature forcing  young  drivers  off 
highways  in  early  hours. 

In  a  statement  accompanying 
the  signing,  Governor  Freeman 
said  he  was  convinced  a  majority 
of  young  people  "conduct  them- 
selves in  accordance  with  the  dic- 
tates of  common  sense,"  but  added 
that  crimes  and  accidents  after 
midnight  call  for  a  trial  of  the  law 
to  protect  both  young  and  old 
from  the  "irresponsibility  of  a 
small  majority."

Live  and  learn.  I've  been  reading  your

intense  interest  in  police  matters  and 
thought  I  knew  how  to  react  when  in  trou- 
ble. 'Yet  several  days  ago  a  woman  smash- 
ed into  the  back  of  my  car  while  I  was 
waiting  for  a  signal  during  the  six  o'clock 
rush  hour  on  Post  Street. 

I  got  out  and  inspected  the  rear  end  of 
my  car   in   the  dark  while  horns  blared 
from  hungry  drivers  anxious  to  get  home 
for  dinner.  No  visible  damage,  so  I  sent 
her  along  without  getting  her  name,   li- 
cense number  or  address.  You  can  guess 
the  answer  —  the  next  day,  sixty  bucks 
worth  of  trouble.  Ruefully  yours,

Gentlemen: 

The  writer  is  conducting  a  survey  of

good  enough  to  send  him  a  copy  of  a  re-

Thanking  you  very  kindly  for  your  gen- 
erous consideration,  I  remain

The  Editor: 

Fines  have  not  solved  moving  traffic 
violations.  Better  results  might  be  obtained 
by  impounding  the  car  for  a  few  days  in- 
stead. This  might  prove  to  be  a  deterrent 
big  enough  to  stop  some  of  our  careless 
driving.

TO   THE 

Dear  Sir: 

Widespread  use  of  the  Salk  vaccine, 
made  possible  by  March  of  Dimes  funds, 
has  already  protected  millions  of  Ameri- 
cans against  the  appalling  paralysis  of 
polio. 

But  the  polio  fight  is  far  from  finished. 
Not  only  do  large  segments  of  the  public 
still  lack  this  protection,  but  there  still  re- 
main 300,000  victims  of  past  polio  attacks, 
many  of  whom — children  in  particular — 
can  be  restored  by  modern  medical  science 
to  lives  of  usefulness  and  productivity. 
With  victory  in  sight,  we  cannot  walk  off 
the  battlefield  and  abandon  the  wounded. 
We  count  on  your  publication  to  help 
us  inform  the  public  of  this  need  in  the 
1958  March  of  Dimes  campaign  from 
January  2  to  31. 

Sincerely  yours, 
(Sgd)  Basil  O'Connor

DARK  IS  HAZARD 

Autumn  and  winter  are  dangerous  peri- 
ods for  both  motorists  and  pedestrians, 
warns  the  California  State  Automobile  As- 
sociation. 

"Because  of  the  shorter  days  of  the  fall 
and  winter  season,  darkness  arrives  much 
earlier  in  the  evening  and  departs  later  in 
the  morning,"  says  the  AAA  motorists' 
organization.  "Motorists  driving  to  and 
from  work  often  must  drive  in  complete 
or  semi-darkness.  The  reduced  visibility 
constitutes  a  major  hazard." 

The  number  of  traffic  deaths  in  cities, 
particularly  those  involving  pedestrians, 
increases  sharply  with  the  advent  of  fall 
and  winter. 

Statistics  show  that  more  accidents  occur 
between  4  and  8  P.M.  during  November, 
December  and  January  than  during  any 
comparable  period  in  the  entire  year. 
There  can  be  no  doubt  that  the  earlier 
darkness  hours  play  a  deciding  role. 

The  AAA  offers  these  safety  tips  to  mo- 
torists and  pedestrians: 

(1)  'When  walking  at  night,  wear  a 
light-colored  article  of  clothing  or  carry 
a  newspaper  so  that  you  may  be  seen  by 
passing  cars.  On  rural  roads,  walk  facing 
traffic. 

(2)  When  driving,  remain  alert  for 
pedestrians,  especially  youngsters  crossing 
streets  at  dusk. 

(3)  Keep  your  windshield  clean,  and 
avoid  tinted  eye  glasses  or  other  devices 
which  reduce  light. 

(4)  Know  the  visiblity  range  of  your 
headlights,  and  drive  so  that  you  can 
stop  within  this  range. 

(5)  Reduce  your  speed  at  night. 

(6)  Keep  your  car  battery,  lights  and 
electrical  system  in  good  condition.

TRUCK  VIOLATIONS 

A  noted  increase  in  traffic  violations  by 
commercial  vehicle  drives  has  made  it  nec- 
essary for  the  California  Highway  Patrol 
to  emphasize  increased  enforcement  effort. 

Ten  violations  by  commercial  drivers 
were  signaled  out  by  Patrol  Commissioner 
B.  R.  Caldwell. 

1.  Excessive  speed. 

2.  Excessive  speed  on  downhill  grades. 

3.  Following  too  closely. 

4.  Failure  to  maintain  500  feet  intervals 
between  commercial  vehicles. 

3.  Failure  to  complete  passing  move- 
ments on  uphill  grades  within  the  required 
one-quarter  mile. 

6.  Exceeding  limitations  on  driving 
hours. 

7.  Defective  brake  equipment. 

8.  Inadequate  or  improperly  connected 
safety  chains. 

9.  Defective  or  inadequate  mufflers  and 
exhaust  systems. 

10.  Lack  of  vehicle  registration  and  in- 
complete or  incorrect  vehicle  registration. 

"Enforcement  action  against  these  viola- 
tions will  be  executed  in  accordance  with 
established  enforcement  policy,"  Caldwell 
promised.  "The  safe  operation  of  commer- 
cial vehicles  is  a  must  on  California's  con- 
gested highways.

AQUATIC  OFFICERS  AT  WORK 


California,  with  its  miles  of  seatoast, 
huge  lakes  and  waterways,  streams  and 
rivers,  might  very  well  follow  the  lead  of 
inland  Michigan  which  has  etjuippcd  its 
state  police  with  t|iialified  skin  divers. 

Each  of  the  eight  districts  in  the  motor 
state  have  trained  divers  ready  to  aid  in 
the  recovery  of  criminal  evidence  and  the 
bodies  of  drowning  victims. 

Started  in  the  summer  of  19'i7,  a  "iO 
hour  school  over  a  five  day  period  was 
opened  in  East  Lansing.  Each  district  sent 
two  men  selected  from  officers  rated  as 
life-saving  instructors  to  be  instructed  by 
members  of  the  Capitol  City  Skin  Diving 
Club  of  Lansing  and  representatives  of 
manufacturers  of  skin  diving  equipment. 

Preliminary  training  was  given  in  the 
swimming  pool  at  the  headquarters  fol- 
lowed by  practical  problems  carried  out  in 
underwater  search  in  Michigan's  rivers 
and  lakes. 

EXPERIMHNTAL  StAGE 

The  present  plan  is  still  in  an  experi- 
mental stage  and  equipment  was  issued 
only  to  the  teams  in  the  first  district,  East 
Lansing,  second  district,  Detroit,  and 
eighth  district,  Marquette. 

However,  these  teams  will  work  not 
only  in  their  own  areas  but  all  over  Michi- 
gan and  if  the  venture  proves  successful, 
all  districts  will  have  skin  diving  equip- 
ment and  trained  men  to  operate  it. 

Recovering  drowned  victims  is  only  part 
of  the  usefulness  of  skin  divers.  Many 
criminal  cases  have  been  successfully  pros- 
ecuted only  after  the  recovery  of  impor- 
tant evidence  thrown  in  rivers  and  lakes.

THESE  ARE  NOT  MEN  FROM  MARS,  instead  here  are  four  Michigan  policemen  outfitted 
and  ready  for  skin  diving  work  in  Michigan's  lakes  and  streams. 

Several  years  ago  two  murderers  of  a 
gas  station  attendant  in  an  attempted  hold- 
up were  brought  to  justice  when  members 
of  the  Capital  City  Skin  Diving  Club  and 
the  State  Police  cooperated  in  the  recovery 
of  a  shotgun  and  rifie  thrown  in  a  lake. 
Student  Convicted 

At  about  the  same  period  a  university 
student  was  convicted  of  attempted  rape 
when  a  knife  he  had  used  as  a  weapon  was 
found  in  a  river. 

Numerous  safes  and  other  objects  have 
been  recovered  by  skin  divers  according  to 
the  Michigan  Police  Journal. 

With  swimming,  surf-bathing,  fishing 
and  yachting  a  prime  factor  in  the  econ- 
omy of  the  Golden  State,  trained  skin 
divers  could  very  well  aid  law  enforce- 
ment a  great  deal  in  California.

PARKING   LIGHTS   TABOO 


The  proper  use  of  vehicle  lighting 
equipment  is  necessary  for  safety  at  night, 
says  the  California  Highway  Patrol. 

"Using  parking  lights  as  driving  lights 
and  failure  to  use  proper  headlight  beam 
when  following,  passing  or  meeting  an- 
other vehicle  on  the  highway  are  two  haz- 
ardous and  illegal  practices,"  declared 
Patrol  Commissioner  B.  R.  Caldwell. 
"Parking  lights  when  used  as  driving 
lights  tend  to  deceive  the  other  driver, 
creating  false  illusions  of  distance  and 
speed  of  oncoming  cars. 

"A  blinding  high  beam  from  an  oncom- 
ing car  or  a  car  following  you  can  reduce 
your  vision  to  zero  for  a  few  seconds  at 
least,"  Caldwell  stated.  "Lowering  the 
beam  to  avoid  blinding  the  other  driver 
is  a  legal  responsibility  of  every  motorist 
when  driving  at  night. 

"The  law  requires  you  to  use  the  lower

beam  when  approaching  an  oncoming  car 
within  500  feet  or  when  following  an- 
other car  when  within  200  feet,"  he  con- 
tinued. "The  law  also  makes  it  illegal  to 
use  the  parking  lights  as  driving  lights 
anytime  upon  a  highway  except  when  such 
lights  are  being  used  as  turn  signals  in  ac- 
cordance with  the  vehicle  code. 

"The  Patrol  urges  every  driver  to  keep 
in  mind  that  the  proper  use  of  lights  is  a 
symbol  of  your  courtesy;  drive  within  the 
law  and  avoid  accidents."

FILM  AVAILABLE 

A  new  30  minute  sound  film  in  col- 
or depicting  the  life  of  a  young  ex-po- 
liceman training  for  foreign  mission  work 
is  now  available  for  distribution  to  schools, 
television  stations  and  religious  organiza- 
tions. 

The  film  "The  Maryknoll  Brother"  re- 
lates the  dramatic  story  of  a  young  police- 
man from  the  city  streets  of  New  York 
who  seeks  a  dynamic,  positive  solution  to 
the  ills  of  the  world. 

The  l6mm  film  follows  Brother  Mat- 
thew Kirwan,  formerly  Patrolman  Joseph 
V.  Kirwan,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  a  member 
of  New  York's  Finest,  from  the  time  he 
first  thinks  of  being  a  Brother  until  his 
Profession.  Brothers  are  depicted  at  work, 
study,  play  and  prayer  and  one  gets  a  good 
insight  into  the  motives  and  training  that 
go  into  preparing  young  Americans  for 
a  lite  as  a  foreign  missionary. 

The  l6mm  film  was  written  and  direct- 
ed by  Father  Albert  J.  Nevins,  M.M.,  ed- 
itor of  the  Maryknoll  magazine.  It  is  also 
available  in  black  and  white  for  presenta- 
tion on  television,  and  may  be  obtained  on

OBSERVE  CODE 

"Analyses  of  traffic  accident  statistics 
prove  beyond  doubt  that  violations  of  the 
vehicle  code  are  the  leading  contributing 
factors  in  about  90%  of  all  traffic  acci- 
dents," stated  California  Highway  Patrol 
Commissioner  B.  R.  Caldwell.  "Drivers 
who  realize  this  and  drive  accordingly, 
obeying  the  rules,  seldom  get  into  acci- 
dent trouble. 

"Speed  violations,  right-of-way  viola- 
tions, driving  while  under  the  influence 
of  alchohol,  disregarding  traffic  lights  or 
stop  signs,  and  following  too  closely  con- 
tinue to  lead  the  parade  of  violations  noted 
in  traffic  accidents,"  Caldwell  said.  ."The 
violations  mentioned  accounted  for  about 
75%  of  all  traffic  accidents  reported  to  the 
Patrol. 

"With  our  usually  highest  traffic  acci- 
dent period  upon  us,  it  is  urgent  that  every 
driver  and  pedestrian  check  their  traffic 
habits  with  the  vehicle  laws,"  he  conclud- 
ed. "Each  should  keep  in  mind  that  there 
is  no  substitute  for  traffic  law  obedience  if 
you  want  to  drive  or  walk  safely  in  traffic."

TV  AIDS  POLICE  PUBLIC  RELATIONS 


Many  officers  quarrel  with  some  of  the 
television  portrayals  of  police  work  and 
the  men  who  take  the  leading  roles  in 
such  features  as  "Dragnet,"  "Lineup,  "  and 
the  dozens  of  other  TV  attempts  to  depict 
crime  and  its  inevitable  reward  but  there 
is  another  aspect  to  the  magic  eye  stories 
that  may  not  have  occurred  to  law  en- 
forcement officials. 

There  was  a  time  when  a  police  officer 
could  not  pick  up  a  book,  attend  a  play, 
or  go  to  a  movie  without  seeing  himself 
portrayed  or  described  as  a  '"Keystone 
Cop, "  or  a  "dumb  flatfoot'  who  had  to  be 
"shown  the  light"  by  a  smart  "private 
eye."" 

No  f)erson  enjoys  seeing  his  avocation, 
trade,  or  profession  held  up  to  undue  ridi- 
cule. 

It"s  demoralizing,  embarrassing  .  .  .  and 
unfair. 

"Cop"  Distasteful 

It  got  to  the  point  that  "cop  "  became 
a  distasteful  label  used  extensively  by 
small  boys  and  a  misinformed  public. 

The  trend  has  changed,  in  recent  years, 
due  in  large  part  to  the  efforts  of  one  man 
and  one  city. 

The  man  is  Jaime  del  Valle,  a  producer 
to  television  programs  for  the  CBS  Tele- 
vision Network. 

The  city  is  beautiful  and  colorful  San 
Francisco,  whose  mood  ranges  from  the 
sublime  to  the  raucous,  whose  history 
reaches  back  to  the  Spanish  dons  and  in- 
cludes the  birth  of  the  United  Nations  and 
whose  cTjlture  ranges  form  white-tie-and- 
tail  opera  to  waterfront  bistros. 

San  Francisco,  like  any  metropolitan 
city,  maintained  a  police  force  that  was 
responsible  for  the  safety  and  security  of 
its  citizens  and  visitors.  The  men  who 
manned  it  resented  ridicule  by  their  neigh- 
bors ...  the  general  public  they  protected 
and  relied  upon  for  cooperation. 


Above  all,  they  resented  the  derisive 
use  of  the  word  "cop." 

Pi'BLic  Relations  Problem 

For  San  Francisco  it  was  a  problem  of 
public  relations. 

For  CBS  it  was  a  matter  of  entertain- 
ment. 

They  wanted  to  tell  a  series  of  stories 
based  on  the  drama  that  is  part  and  parcel 
of  the  crime  of  any  major  city. 

They  wanted  to  tell  these  stories  as  they 
are  seen  through  the  eyes  of  the  modern 
police  officer  .  .  .  not  the  fictional  "Key- 
stone Cop,  "  but  the  career  civil  servant 
who  follows  a  skilled  profession,  which 
takes  years  of  study  .  .  .  years  of  hard 
work,  to  master. 

To  do  this  they  needed  a  city  .  .  .  and 
so  CBS  went  to  San  Francisco. 

Thus  the  two  came  together  and  out  of 
the  union  the  CBS  Television  series,  the 
"Lineup"  was  born. 

The  birth  was  not  easy. 

The  city,  as  represented  by  the  Police 
Chief  and  the  Police  Commission,  was 
wary  of  the  entertainment  business  as  a 
whole  and  its  "private  eyes"  and  '"dumb 
flatfoots  "  in  particular.  It  wanted  no  part 
in  putting  the  millstone  of  comedy  charac- 
ter around  its  peace  officers. 

Chief  Was  Tough 

The  Chief  and  the  Commission  bought 
the  idea  on  some  tough  terms  .  .  .  terms 
agreed  upon  by  producer  del  Valle. 

""Lineup  "  was  NOT  to  be  a  gimmick 
show.  Its  scripts  were  to  follow  closely 
the  recorded  history  of  each  police  case. 
The  story  would  always  be  direct.  Realism 
was  to  be  the  rule.  A  television  show  was 
to  be  built  from  fact. 

"Lineup  "  writers  were  to  swing  a  powd- 
er-packed punch  on  the  subject  of  law  en- 
forcement. They  were  to  deal  not  only  in 
the  excitement  and  danger  of  the  police  in 
action  ...  but  also  the  day-to-day  routine 
and  the  humdrum  activity  of  deskwork. 


They  were  to  take  a  long  look  at  crime 
detection,  prevention  and  punishment 
from  the  newest,  most  modern  research  as 
practiced  by  the  men  in  the  laboratories  to 
the  basic,  plodding  legwork  of  the  men  on 
the  beats. 

Files  Combed 

The  police  files  were  opened  and 
combed. 

Technical  advisors,  detective-inspectors 
with  long  years  of  experience  behind 
them,  were  suppiled. 

Scripts  and  stories  were  screened  by  a 
three-man  board  composed  of  the  Chief, 
the  Chief  of  Inspectors  and  the  Supervis- 
ing Captain  .  .  .  their  combined  experience 
totaled  nearly  100  years  in  police  work 
.  . .  all  phases  of  it. 

Weeks  were  spent  on  the  format,  more 
weeks  on  indoctrinating  writers  to  police 
terminology.  Actors  rode  police  cars  and 
haunted  the  police  academy.  Thousands 
of  feet  of  film  were  "shot."  The  him  was 
thrown  out  .  .  .  "not  enough  realism." 
More  him  ...  .  and  the  "Lineup""  was 
ready  to  beam  across  the  nation. 

The  meticulous  and  exhausting  devo- 
tion to  realism  paid  off. 

This  past  year  "Lineup"  was  consist- 
ently in  the  "top  ten"  favorite  programs 
of  the  country. 

Familiar  Faces 

Warner  Anderson,  as  Lieutenant  Ben 
Guthrie  and  Tom  Tuily,  as  Inspector  Matt 
Greb,  are  probably  two  of  the  most  famil- 
iar faces  connected  with  jTolice  work  in  the 
United  States  today. 

Thousands  of  visitors  have  flcxked  to 
the  city  by  the  Golden  Gate  as  a  direct 
result  of  the  program. 

Hundreds  of  visitors  and  residents  alike 
have  given  the  program  their  indorsement 
by  appearing  in  street  scenes,  on  cable  cars

examinations.  These  questions  and  answers  are  supplied  to  the  Journal,  as  a  service  to  law  enforcement  officers  through- 
out the  state,  by  E.  D.  Kerkhoven,  director  of  the  Peace  Officer  Training  Service  in  Oakland.  The  questions  are  selected  to 
test  the  reader's  knowledge  of  what  action  to  take  in  certain  situations  resulting  from  criminal  acts.  Each  question  has  a 
number  of  suggested  answers,  labeled  1,  2,  3,  etc.  You  decide  which  is  the  best  answer  to  the  question  asked  and  then  en- 
circle the  number.  'VC'Tien  you  have  completed  the  test,  compare  your  answers  with  the  KEY  on  page  22. 


1.  The  most  common  method  used  in 
making  casts  of  traces  caused  by  tools 
being  pressed  against  paint  is: — (1)  by 
plaster  casts  made  of  dental  plaster,  (2) 
by  moulage,  (3)  by  pressing  plastelina 
against  the  trace,  (4)  by  the  use  of  a  high 
quality  of  plaster  and  vaseline. 

2.  "Sketching  "  is  determining  the  rela- 
tive positions  of  different  points  insofar 
as  location  is  concerned.  A  common  meth- 
od for  this  purpose  is  the  : — (1)  polas 
or  radial  coordinate  method,  (2)  coordi- 
nate method,  (3)  transverse  method,  (4) 
triangle  method,  (5)  cross-projection 
method. 

3.  In  measuring  the  caliber  of  a  fired 
bullet,  one  would  find: — (1)  the  bullet 
to  have  a  caliber  absolutely  corresponding 
to  the  firearm  from  which  it  was  fired, 

(2)  the  bullet  may  generally  be  fitted  back 
into  the  barrel  from  which  it  was  fired, 

(3)  the  caliber  of  the  bullet  to  be  meas- 
ured from  land  to  land,  (4)  the  caliber 
of  the  bullet  to  be  measured  from  groove 
to  groove. 

4.  A  person  cannot  fire  a  shot  at  him- 
self at  a  greater  distance  than  about: — 

(1)  24  inches,  (2)  20  inches,  (3)  18 
inches,  (4)  15  inches. 

5.  An  investigator  arrives  at  the  scene 
of  a  death  to  find  the  victim  lying  on  the 
floor  with  signs  of  post-mortem  lividity 
on  the  upper  surface  of  the  body.  The 
soundest  conclusion  that  can  bs  drawn  is 
that  the  victim: — ( 1 )  died  a  violent  death, 

(2)  has  just  committed  suicide  by  as- 
phyxiation, (3)  was  battered  severely  o;i 
the  upper  part  of  the  body,  (4)  has  bec:i 
dead  for  less  than  an  hour,  (  5 )  was  moved 
several  hours  after  death.

POINT-DUTY  LIGHTS 

German  scientists  have  developed  a  belt 
with  flashing  lights  for  West  Berlin  po- 
licemen on  point-duty  at  night  as  an  added 
protection  for  the  men. 

A  white  plastic  belt  with  two  braces, 
adjustable  for  individual  officers,  is  fitted

NEW  TRAFFIC   GUIDE 


The  Traffic  Institute  of  Northwestern 
University  has  announced  publication  of 
the  Instructor's  Guide  for  Traffic  Accident 
bivestigation. 

Based  on  and  for  use  with  the  Traffic 
Accident  Investigator's  Manual  for  Police, 
the  Guide  is  a  three-part  publication.  Part 
1  is  entitled  "General  Information  for  the 
Instructor."  Part  2  is  "Review  and  Discus- 
sion Questions,"  and  Part  3  is  "Special 
Training  Methods  and  Aids."  A  special 
feature  is  a  form  for  "Administrative 
Evaluation  of  the  Need  for  Training  in 
Accident  Investigation." 

In  announcing  the  new  publication,  Ray 
Ashworth,  director  of  the  Traffic  Institute 
and  of  the  Traffic  Division  of  the  Inter- 
national Association  of  Chiefs  of  Police, 
said: 

"We  consider  the  development  and 
publication  of  the  Instructor's  Guide  the 
most  significant  single  step  ever  made  in 
police  traffic  training.  Never  before  has 
there  been  so  complete  and  comprehensive 
a  pattern  laid  down  for  the  police  training 
instructor.  This  Guide  will  be  an  inval- 
uable tool  for  police  agencies  seeking  to 
improve  their  investigation  of  traffic  acci- 
dents." 

One  Copy  Needed 

Mr.  Ashworth  stressed,  however,  that 
most  police  departments  will  need  only 
one  copy  of  the  complete  Guide.  Addi- 
tional copies  of  Parts  2  and  3  and  of  in- 
dividual units  in  Part  3  may  be  ordered 
from  the  Traffic  Institute. 

The  three-part  Guide  will  be  sent  to 
police   departments   on   a   two-week,   no-

$30  per  copy,  from  the  Traffic  Institute, 
1804  Hinman  Ave.,  Evanston,  111. 

Part  1  of  the  Guide,  "General  Informa- 
tion for  the  Instructor,"  tells  how  to  set 
up  a  training  course  (based  on  the  617- 
page  textbook,  the  Traffic  Accident  In- 
vestigator's Manual  for  Police)  and  then 
details  information  on  three  types  of 
courses :  1 )  minimum  training — for  police 
recruits;  2)  abridged  training — for  police 
who  should  know  something  more  of  the 
subject,  and  3)  complete  training — for 
police  who  are  or  will  be  assigned  to  the 
investigation  of  traffic  accidents. 

Training  Questions 

Part  2,  "Review  and  Discussion  Ques- 
tions," is  a  compilation  of  questions  to  be 
used  in  a  departmental  training  course, 
and  Part  3,  "Special  Training  Methods 
and  Aids,"  consists  of  57  separate  train- 
ing projects  which  an  instructor  will  find 
useful  in  teaching  an  accident  investiga- 
tion course.  Copies  of  the  project  material 
may  be  ordered  in  qantities  for  distribu- 
tion to  police  trainees. 

The  three-part  Instructor's  Guide  was 
developed  by  the  Research  and  Develop- 
ment Division  of  the  Traffic  Institute  un- 
der the  direction  of  James  Stannard  Baker,

Latent  Print  Variations 

The  following  interesting  discussion  of  the  variations  in  Late.it  Print  Techniques  was  written  by  Morris  Grodsky,  Instructor, 
Criminology  Department  City  College  of  San  Francisco,  and  is  reprinted  from  the  excellent  Finger  Print  iiinl  Icletilificalio)]  Maga- 
zine of  Chicago. 


Of  the  various  techniques  associated 
with  the  development  of  physical  evi- 
dence, probably  none  receives  a  greater 
participation  on  the  part  of  law  enforce- 
ment personnel  than  those  involving  the 
development  of  latent  prints. 

Certainly  it  is  to  be  expected  that  among 
the  numerous  individuals  utilizing  the 
techniques  of  development,  there  are  some 
who  are  inventive  and  many  who  look  for 
a  better  way.  Yet,  because  of  a  lack  of 
communication,  the  bulk  of  the  workers  in 
the  field  never  become  aware  of  the  crea- 
tive results  achieved  by  their  colleagues. 

As  a  step  in  the  right  direction,  I  shall 
endeavor  in  this  article  to  present  some 
variations  in  method  which  I  have  found 
to  be  successful.  Although  no  new  prin- 
ciples are  involved,  the  techniques  them- 
selves may  in  particular  instances  produce 
better  results  than  have  heretofore  been 
obtained. 

Development  With  Iodine 

A  highly  regarded  procedure  for  the 
development  of  latent  prints  containing 
substances  such  as  skin  oils  or  grease  is 
the  iodine  fuming  technique.  The  method 
is  successful  because  the  iodine  fumes  are 
selectively  retained  by  the  oily  material  in 
the  latent  impression.  The  standard  forms 
of  application  are:  (1)  the  iodine  fuming 
cabinet,  and  (2)  portable  iodine  fumers 
of  various  design.  A  suggestion  from  one 
of  the  students  in  our  criminology  pro- 
gram at  City  College  of  San  Francisco  has 
led  to  a  variation  which  may  in  some  in- 
stances be  superior  to  those  accepted  meth- 
ods. This  variation  can  be  called  an  iodine 
dusting  technique. 

The  technique  was  first  carried  out  by 
simply  grinding  iodine  crystals  to  a  fine 
powder  and  then  dusting  with  this  mate-

rial.  The  prints  developed  immediately, 
had  excellent  contr;ist,  and  tended  to  have 
a  good  duration  visibility.  One  ditficulty 


arose  when  this  method  was  applied. 
Though  the  print  in  general  developed 
with  an  equal  intensity  throughout,  small 
points  of  higher  intensity  appeared  scat- 
tered along  the  ridges. 

It  has  been  mentioned  in  literature  that 
amorphous  powders  are,  on  the  whole, 
superior  to  crystalline  powders.  With  this 
in  mind,  a  variation  was  attempted  which 
has  proved  to  be  very  successful. 

One  part  of  crystalline  iodine  is  mixed 
with  two  parts  of  fine  chalk  and  reduced 
with  mortar  and  pestle  to  a  flour-like  pou 
dcr.  The  powder  is  then  applied  in  the 
same  manner  as  conventional  finger  print 
powders.  Where  oil  is  present  the  ridges 
appear  immediately  and  seem  to  stand  out 
from  the  background  with  greater  contrast 
than  that  obtained  from  the  standard  fum- 
ing precedure.  The  pattern  thus  produced 
will  also  remain  visible  for  a  greater 
length  of  time.  See  Figures  I  and  2. 


Figure  I.  These  two  sets  of  latent  prints  were  fumed  (left)  and  iodine  dusted  (right)  im- 
mediately before  photography.  The  good  detail  and  excellent  contrast  of  the  dusting  method 
can  be  readily  observed. 


■ik. 


Figure  2.  The  same  prints  shown  in  Figure  1  were  here  photographed  45  minutes  later.  The 
dusted  impressions  remain  readily  visible,  while  the  fumed  prints  are  very  pale  and  difficult 
to  see. 


POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS'  JOURNAL 


February-March,  1 9.^  S 


One  of  the  disadvantages  of  iodine 
fumed  prints  is  the  fact  that  the  sublima- 
tion of  the  iodine  causes  the  prints  to  dis- 
appear rapidly.  As  a  result,  methods  of 
preservation  have  been  developed.  Among 
these  methods  are:  (1)  Immediate  pho- 
tography. One  problem  here  is  that  the 
actual  print  cannot  be  presented  as  the 
best  evidence.  (2)  Sandwiching  the  fumed 
print  between  sealed  glass  plates.  In  this 
case  the  problem  is  that  fading  still  occurs, 
although  it  is  retarded.  (3)  The  use  of  a 
spray  containing  a  soluble  starch.  This 
method  depends  upon  the  formation  of  a 
purplish  starch-iodine  complex.  In  apply- 
ing such  a  spray,  it  is  often  difficult  to  ob- 
tain results  which  are  smooth  and  unmar- 
red  by  water  droplets. 

Three  methods  of  fixation  have  been 
developed  in  our  laboratory.  All  three  are 
easily  applied,  produce  undistorted  results, 
and  have  been  found  to  be  capable  of  re- 
maining visible  for  many  months. 
Moist  Breath 

The  first  method  is  the  simplest  and 
may  be  applied  in  most  cases  when  the 
print  has  been  developed  on  paper.  Since 
many  paper  products  contain  starch  as  a 
sizing  or  finishing  material,  it  may  only  be 
necessary  to  place  the  fumed  print  close 
to  the  mouth  and  exhale  the  moist  breath. 
The  print  will  immediately  darken  to  a 
purplish  color  as  the  moistened  starch 
combines  with  the  iodine.  Good  contrast 
is  obtained  on  light  surfaces;  the  print  is 
not  distorted;  and  the  print  will  remain 
for  at  least  six  months.  See  Figure  3.

THUGS  FOILED 

Two  armed  thugs  overpowered  a  watch- 
man at  the  One  Eleven  Sutter  Building, 
San  Francisco,  and  attempted  to  ransack 
the  offices  in  the  twenty-two  story  sky- 
scraper late  last  year.  Their  efforts  failed 
when  police  trapped  them  after  Central 
Station  operators  investigated  the  watch- 
man's failure  to  turn  in  his  scheduled  re- 
porting signal. 

The  watchman,  Alex  Neff,  64,  said  the 
two  men,  Kenneth  Warner,  52,  and  Mil- 
lard Patterson,  35,  pulled  guns  on  him 
when  he  admitted  them  to  the  lobby  after 
they  rang  the  night  bell. 

Neff  told  police  they  took  his  keys, 
locked  him  in  a  closet  and  started  to  loot 
offices  in  the  building. 

ADT  Guard  Richard  Nicol,  dispatched 
to  investigate  the  watchman's  failure  to 
report  on  schedule,  saw  two  men,  each 
holding  a  gun,  coming  down  the  stairs. 
He  telephoned  police. 

Searching  through  the  basement,  Of- 
ficers William  Ninnis  and  Gerald  D'Arcy 
opened  the  door  to  a  walk-in  refrigerator 
and  came  face-to-face  with  the  thugs,  their 
guns  still  drawn. 

Patrolman  D'Arcy  slammed  the  door  on 
the  trapped  men  and  called  for  reinforce- 
ments. The  pair  surrendered,  unarmed, 
when  police  threw  open  the  door  and  or- 
dered them  out. 

Police  found  a  .32-caliber  pistol  buried 
in  a  lettuce  bin  and  another  gun  at  the 
bottom  of  a  pickle  barrel,  according  to 
The  ADT  Transmitter. 

Passenger  cars  account  for  more  than 
80  per  cent  of  all  motor  vehicle  miles 
traveled  in  the  United  States,  according 
to  the  National  Automobile  Club.

HANDWRITING  AND  SEX  CRIME 


Sex  problems  that  may  cause  crime  can 
[and  thought-provoking  conclusion  of  the 
iofHcia!  teacher  for  the  Symposiums  of  the 

I  When  a  known  sex  offender  is  released 
•to  mingle  with  society,  he  should  not  be  a 
ipotential  repeater,  but  how  will  the  offi- 

tcers  know? 
Is  he  recjuested  to  submit  a  page  of  his 
handwriting  before  being  released?  Tech- 
'nicilities  might  prevent  his  being  held 
ilonger,  but  a  page  of  his  handwriting 
would  give  a  graphic  picture  of  his 
jthought  pattern,  his  physical  habits  and 
his  personality  traits.  The  officers  would 
know  what  to  expect. 

Handwriting    will    show    if    the    sex 
offense  w.is  primary  or  secondary. 
Shows  Tension 

Many  people  have  sex  problems  caused 
from  various  conditions  and  the  writing 
will  show  it,  but  not  all  sex  problems  are 
of  a  criminal  nature. 

Look  at  the  circular  structures  in  Speci- 
men No.  1.  There  is  a  tucked-in  hook  or 
loop  in  the  "a  ",  "d  "  and  "c  ".  He  is  tuck- 
ing in  sex  thoughts  to  keep  them  hidden 
from  the  world.  There  is  an  absence  of 
dirt  in  this  writing,  showing  the  writer 
would  not  have  dirty  ideas  about  sex. 

The  lower  loop  on  the  "g"  and  the  "y" 
has  a  very  heavy  down  stroke  indicating 
a  strong  sex  drive,  but  the  upstroke  is 
much  lighter,  showing  the  sex  drive  to  be 
under  control.  Downstrokes  reflect  the 
physical  and  the  upstrokes  reflect  the  men- 
tal. 

The  upper  loop  on  the  "h"  and  the  "I  " 
are  well  proportioned  indicating  a  well 
balanced  or  healthy  attitude  toward  philos- 
ophy and  religion. 

Has  a  Sex  Problem 

This  writer  does  have  a  sex  problem, 
but  the  sex  drive  is  under  control,  the 
writing  is  free  from  dirt,  and  he  has  a 
well  rounded  philosophy  ...  an  indivi- 
dual who  would  not  commit  a  sex  offense.

No.  2  is  much  different  although  there 
are  the  same  indications  of  a  sex  problem, 
but  the  writing  is  dirty  and  pasty  looking. 
In  many  places  there  is  a  complete  inking 
in.  The  lower  loops  have  the  same  weight 
on  the  upstroke  as  the  down  stroke,  re- 
vealing a  strong  sex  drive  without  con- 
trol. The  loops  on  the  "k"  and  "I's"  are 
closed  or  quite  narrow  which  means  ideals 
and  philosophy  views  are  very  restricted.

Fehrii^ry-Ahirch,  19^S 


The  "o's"  are  double  looped,  showing 
a  writer  who  will  be  very  deceitful. 

These  mental  processes  alone  indicate 
a  person  capable  of  a  sex  crime. 
Reshntment  Hhre 

The  firm  stroke  before  the  word  "and" 
is  resentment.  He  looks  for  and  expects 
trouble.  The  cross  bar  on  the  "t"  is  made 
after  the  "t "  indicating  temper,  and  the 
bars  are  also  pointed  showing  sarcasm. 
They  are  low  on  the  stem  indicating  the 
writer  is  "in  the  dumps"  with  little  regard 
for  his  own  ability. 

Two  of  the  lower  loops  are  triangles 
indicating  he  will  use  every  angle  to  get 
what  he  wants,  and  it  is  also  a  stroke  com- 
bination showing  cruelty. 

This    individual    is    capable    of    a   sex 


crime.  Now  think  of  the  various  traits  in- 
dicated, add  them  together.  What  type  of 
individual  do  you  think  he  would  be,  and 
what  type  of  crime  would  he  be  capable 
of  committing?  If  narcotics  or  alcohol 
(also  shown  in  writing)  played  a  part,  the 
brutality  of  the  crime  would  be  worse. 

There  are  many  other  combinations 
which  can  spell  a  sex  crime,  but  the  basic 
is  always:  1.  Indications  of  a  sex  problem, 
2.  Uncontrolled  sex  drive,  3.  Dirty  writ- 
ing, 4.  A  restricted  philosophy.  All  other 
negative  traits  contribute  to  the  force  of 
the  basic  problem. 

When  the  science  of  handwriting  anal- 
ysis is  utilized,  many  newspaper  accounts 
will  not  end  with,  "He  has  a  previous 
record  of  a  sex  offense."

IMPROPER  SHOOTING  BY  ONE 
OF  HIS  DEPUTIES 

Yes,  declared  a  Louisiana  court.  Here 
the  victim  was  making  an  eflfort  to  give 
himself  up.  He  was  under  a  bright  light 
with  his  hands  raised,  when  the  deputy 
tired.  The  court  said  this  was  clearly  an 
improper  performance  of  a  legal  act.  And 
in  such  cases,  the  sheriff  himself  is  re- 
sponsible, even  though  he  did  not  per- 
sonally participate  in  the  act.  (CASE  OF 
THE  DOUBTFUL  DEPUTE',  based  on

MAY  AN  ATTORNEY  ASK  THE 
COURTS  FOR  A  NEW  TRIAL 
WHILE  HIS  ALREADY  CON- 
VICTED CLIENT  IS  A  FUGITIVE 
FROM  JUSTICE.' 
No,  said  the  Indiana  Supreme  Court. 
He  cannot  seek  a  favorable  ruling  where 
he  has  everything  to  gain  and  nothing  to 
lose.  He  says  in  effect,  "give  me  what  I 
ask,  and  then  perhaps  I'll  surrender.  But 
deny  what  I  ask,  and  I'll  remain  in  hid- 
ing." Courts  will  not  bargain  with  a  con- 
victed person  under  these  circumstances. 
Regardless  of  the  motion's  merits,  it  must 
be  denied.  (CASE  OF  THE  CONVINC- 
ING CLIENT,  Irvin  vs  State,  1.^9  NE2d

Yes,  said  the  Montana  Supreme  Court.

said  that  the  accused  put  the  wheels  in

sult, whether  he  wished  for  them  or  not.

No,  said  a  California  court.  Here  the 
t  ity  ordinance  prohibited  any  minor  under 
17  to  be  in  or  on  any  public  street  or  place 
after  ten  p.m.,  unless  with  their  parents  or 
on  business.  True,  the  ordinance  prevents 
aimless  loitering.  But  it  also  stops  minors 
from  going  to  night  cla.sses,  libraries, 
games,  or  other  lawful  activities.  Legal 
rights  and  innocent  activities  cannot  be 
completely  taken  away  under  the  guise  ot 
police  powers.  The  ordinance  is  uncon- 
stitutional. (CASE  OF  THE  QUESTION-

No,  said  an  Indiana  court.  Here  the 
accused  got  in  a  fight  with  his  victim; 
knocked  him  down.  He  had  one  dollar  in 
his  pocket;  the  victim  a  hundred  dollars. 
The  arresting  officer  thought  he  was  bend- 
ing over  to  take  his  wallet.  However,  the 
court  held  a  man's  liberty  may  not  be  taken 
away  through  mere  suspicion,  guess,  or 
conjecture.  He  was  guilty  of  simple  as- 
sault, but  there  was  no  evidence  to  war- 
rant the  charge  of  attempted  robbery.

YOUR  DRIVING 

The  new  cars  will  be  safer  than  ever 
before,  but  there's  one  factor  the  automo- 
bile manufacturers  can't  improve — your 
driving.  Remember,  says  the  California 
State  Automobile  Association,  it's  the  man 
behind  the  wheel  who  determines  wheth- 
er a  car  is  really  safe  or  not.

TRANS-SIERRA   FREEWAYS 


I-ive  major  t'rceway  toiistruction  proj- 
ects on  the  trans-Sierra  portion  of  US  40, 
totaling  36  miles  in  length  and  estimated 
to  tost  Si-i/iSO.OOO,  are  contained  in  the 
state  highway  budget  for  the  19''8-'iy  Fis- 
cal Year  submitted  to  Governor  Goodwin 
J.  Knight  by  the  California  Highway 
Commission. 

The  five  major  trans-Sierra  projects 
budgeted  will  connect  with  and  extend 
freeway  work  now  under  contract  on  US 
40  in  Placer,  Nevada  and  Sierra  Counties 
involving  four  contracts  totaling  20  miles 
of  highway  and  an  aggregate  construction 
cost  of  approximately  Sl'i,900,000. 

When  both  the  projects  now  under  con- 
struction and  those  newly  budgeted  have 
been  completed,  there  will  be  a  total  of 
about  83  miles  of  freeway  or  expressway 
in  operation  on  the  U 7-mile  length  ot 
US  40  between  S.uramento  and  the  Ne- 
vada state  line  it  was  pointed  out  by  State 
Director  of  Public  Works  Frank  B.  Dur- 
kec.  Chairman  of  the  Highway  Commis- 
sion. 

On  Interstati:  System 

This  multilane  divided  mileage  will  in- 
clude "^6  continuous  miles  of  freeway  and 
expressway  between  Sacramento  and  east 
of  Gold  Run,  and  nearly  21  continuous 
miles  between  the  east  end  of  Donner  Lake 
and  the  Nevada  line.  The  remaining  six 
miles  of  freeway  will  be  slightly  west  of 
Donner  Summit,  between  Hampshire 
■Rocks  and  Soda  Springs. 

Durkee  explained  that  US  40  is  a  por- 
tion of  the  national  system  of  interstate 
highways  and  that  the  present  emphasis 
on  its  development  as  a  freeway  is  in  line 
with  the  goals  of  the  accelerated  national 
program.  He  also  noted  that  projects  in- 
cluded in  the  1958-59  Budget  are  in- 
tended, weather  permitting,  to  be  opened 
to  traffic  by  the  end  of  1959,  in  time  for 
the  winter  Olympic  games  scheduled  for 
Squaw  Valley  in  February,  I960. 

One  of  the  five  projects  on  US  40  con- 
tained in  the  new  state  highway  budget, 
four  are  being  financed  only  in  part  in  the 
1958-59  Fiscal  Year.  In  these  cases  the 


contracts  for  the  entire  project  will  be 
awarded  at  one  time,  however,  with  the 
remaining  cost  to  be  charged  against  the 
budget  for  the  succeeding  fiscal  year.  This 
method  of  getting  large-scale  projects 
started  without  tying  up  large  amounts 
of  highway  funds  is  being  used  in  the 
19S8-'iy  Budget  for  the  first  time.

36  YEARS  TO  TRAFFIC  SAFETY 

The  Police  &  Peace  Officers'  Journal  celebrates  its  36th  Anniversary  in 
1958 — more  than  three  decades  of  devotion  to  the  chronicling  of  police  acti- 
vities and  to  traffic  safety. 

The  editor  and  staff  tender  a  hearty  "well-done  "  to  the  thousands  of  dedi- 
cated men  and  women  in  uniform  who  have  fought  crime  and  the  cause  of  traffic 
safety  during  these  years. 

It  was  in  November  of  1922  that  the  magazine  was  first  launched.  At  that 
time  it  was  the  official  publication  of  the  S.  F.  Police  Department  and  was  edited 
by  the  late  Opie  Warner,  former  police  reporter  and  friend  and  confidant  of 
nearly  every  officer  on  the  force. 

During  our  years  of  faithful  Reporting  of  subjects  near  and  dear  to  the  law 
enforcement  officer's  heart,  no  subject  has  been  as  important  as  traffic  safety. 

On  its  Anniversary  Year,  rest  assured  the  Journal  will  continue  to  bring 
you  any  and  all  developments  in  the  all-important  field  of  traffic  safety. 

The  Editor 


She  is  always  standing  there 
At  the  corner  of  the  square; 
She  is  very  big  and  fine 
And  her  silver  buttons  shine. 
All  the  cars  and  taxis  do 
Everything  she  tells  them  to, 
And  the  little  errand  boys 
When  they  pass  her  make  no  noise. 


Though  I  seem  so  very  small 

I  am  not  afraid  at  all; 

She  and  I  are  friends,  you  see 

And  she  always  smiles  at  me. 

Once  I  wasn't  very  good 

Rather  near  to  where  she  stood. 

But  she  never  said  a  word 

Though  I'm  sure  she  must  have  heard. 


("The  Policewoman"  was  written  by  Alice  Diochea,  age  12,  of  Los  Banos, 
California,  for  Los  Banos  Juvenile  Officer  Jacqueline  Lief  last  Christmas. )

SALARIES  HIGHER 

Cities  are  hiring  policemen  and  firemen 
and  paying  them  higher  salaries,  the  Inter- 
national City  Manager's  Association  re- 
ports in  the  1957  Municipal  Year  Book. 

Year  Book  tabulations  show  that  newly- 
hired  firemen  are  paid  on  the  average 
from  $40  to  $261  per  year  more  than  re- 
cruits were  paid  in  1956  (depending  on 
the  city's  size).  Police  recruits  earn  an 
average  of  $51  to  $326  more  per  year 
than  the  year  before. 

Maximum  salaries  also  rose,  currently 
averaging  $5220  for  policemen  and  fire- 
men in  cities  over  500,000,  tapering  down 
to  $4,000  maximum  for  policemen  and 
$3960  for  firemen  in  cities  of  10,000- 
25,000.

EASTER  SEALS  HELPED  OFFICER 


It's  a  real  life  scene,  ever  familiar,  ever 
appealing  —  a  gay,  boisterous  mob  of 
Sihool-bound  moppets  being  shepherded 
across  a  busy  intersection  by  a  friendly 
protective  policeman. 

It's  a  picture  that  best  illustrates  one  of 
the  functions  of  the  police  officer — his 
work  in  accident  prevention — that  makes 
him  so  im[X)rtant. 

But  accidents  do  happen,  despite  the  po- 
liceman. What's  more,  they  can  happen  in 
the  police  officer's  own  home — and  to  his 
own  child. 

A  currently  active  case  being  handled 
by  the  California  Society  for  Crippled 
Children  and  Adults  involves  Officer 
Thomas  Rusick,  a  member  of  the  police 
force  in  a  medium-sized  central  California 
town. 

What  happened  to  Officer  Rusick's  in- 
fant son  is  the  story  of  anguish,  sorrow 
and  expense  that  an  accident  can  bring 
upon  a  family.  It's  also  the  story  of  how 
a  despairing  family  can  be  heped  by  a 
voluntary  health  and  welfare  agency  fi- 
nanced by  public  contributions. 

Baby  Injured 

Officer  Rusick's  happiness  and  pride  in 
becoming  the  father  of  a  healthy,  good- 
looking  baby  boy  turned  into  a  nightmare. 
When  baby  Randy  Rusick  was  13  months 
old,  he  fell  from  his  high  chair,  his  head 
banging  with  sickening  intensity  against 
the  corner  of  a  washing  machine. 

The  medical  diagnosis  was  a  hard  one 
for  the  Rusick's  to  take,  even  though  they 
were  assured  Randy  would  live.  He  had 
suffered  a  brain  hemorrhage.  And  it  be- 
came obvious  that  he  now  couldn't  see 
very  well  and  that  there  was  some  paraly- 
sis along  the  right  side  of  his  body,  in- 
cluding arm,  hand  and  leg. 

There  was  even  further  cause  for  con- 
cern. Early  during  Randy's  stay  in  the  hos- 
pital, the  nurses   found   and  the  doctors

confirmed  another  aftermath  of  the  dam- 
age done  his  brain.  He  was  no  longer  his 
good-natured  self.  He  became  the  "prob- 
lem child"  of  the  hospital  ward. 

The  psychiatrists  concluded  that  Randy 
was  in  "a  deeply  disturbed  and  aggressive 
emotional  state  "  and  held  out  little  hope 
for  improvement.  They  found  that  he  no 
longer  had  any  concept  of  pain  or  fear. 
He  would  repeatedly  fall,  bruise  or  cut 
himself  and  pay  no  attention  to  his 
wounds  —  and  never  cry  because  he 
couldn't.

other  to  his  ability  to  talk.  To  Officer 
Rusick  and  his  wife  these  seemed  to  be 
more  than  straws  on  which  to  float  their 
hopes. 

They  staked  their  life  savings  on  a  brain 
operation  in  a  San  Francisco  hospital.  And 
three  years  later,  they  borrowed  from  rela- 
tives and  friends  for  a  second  operation, 
this  time  calling  in  a  renowned  specialist 
from  New  York. 

The  expensive  operations  may  have 
kept  Randy  from  getting  worse,  but  there 
was  no  clear  evidence  that  they  had  im- 
proved his  sight,  mobility  or  behavior. 
When  the  Rusicks,  broke  but  still  not 
broken,  sought  further  medical  care,  they 
were  told  frankly  that  all  that  could  be 
done  by  surgery  had  been  done. 

Randy  is  now  several  years  beyond  the 
age  when  children  normally  start  going  to 
school,  but  he  has  never  been  in  a  regular 
classroom.  The  public  school  authorities 
believe  he  is  too  handicapped  physically 
and  too  disturbed  emotionally  to  fit  into 
a  normal  school  program. 

So  a  little  over  a  year  ago,  Randy  was 
sent  to  a  residential  school  for  slow-learn- 
ing children  where  an  attempt  is  made  to 
give  some  sort  of  education  along  with 
psychiatric  care  and  treatment.  After  three 
months,  however,  he  was  sent  home.  His 
I.Q. — which  turned  out  to  be  a  surprising 
118 — was  too  high  and  made  him  a  mis- 
fit among  the  other  child  patients,  all  of 
whom  had  I.Q.'s  far  below  Randy's. 

Behavior  Improved 
The  Rusicks  were  happy  to  learn  of 
their  son's  mental  potential.  They  were 
also  encouraged  by  signs  that  Randy's  be- 
havior had  improved.  He  seemed  calmer, 
less  violent  in  venting  aggressive  impulses.

But  the  local  school  system  still  did  not 
tind  him  suitable  for  "normal  classroom 
mcmhcrship,  "  and  it  could  not  provide  a 
home  teacher.  The  Rusicks  were  similar- 
ly stymied  elsewhere. 

I'or  example,  Randy  was  ineligible  lor 
a  school  t\)r  the  blinci  because  he  is  only 
partially  blind.  And  he  could  not  be 
placed  in  an  institution  for  mentally  de- 
ficient children  because,  clearly,  his  mind 
w.is  not  retarded. 

I'inally,  understandably  bitter  and  feel- 
ing that  the  world  was  against  them,  the 
Rusicks  turned  to  an  obscure  private 
school  in  a  distant  part  of  the  state,  al- 
though they  didn't  know  how  they  would 
be  able  to  pay  the  high  tuition  and  main- 
tenance rates. 

At  the  same  time,  they  luckily  heard  of 
and  went  to  an  Easter  Seal  Society  for 
crippled  children  in  a  neighboring  town. 
The  Society  offered  to  investigate  the  pri- 
vate school  and  found  that  it  was  not  a 
properly  accredited  institution.  It  also  of- 
fered to  have  its  state  headcjuarters  search 
out  an  educational  facility  for  Randy  that 
would  measure  up  to  the  recjuired  pro- 
fessional standards. 

Society  Will  Pay 

A  happy  ending  was  in  sight  for  the 
Rusicks  at  the  time  this  article  was  written. 
The  California  Society  for  Crippled  Chil- 
dren and  Adults  was  arranging  Randy's 
enrollment  in  a  properly  licensed,  properly 
staffed  school  for  handicapped  children — 
and  the  Easter  Seal  Society  in  the  same  city 
will  pay  for  the  therapy  that  Randy  still 
needs. 

Officer  and  Mrs.  Rusick  learned  that 
the  Society  has  affiliates  in  47  California 
counties  which  offer  varied  services  to 
handicapped  children  whose  needs  cannot 
be  met  by  other  agencies.  Like  some  16,- 
000  other  Californians  who  were  helped 
by  these  societies  last  year,  the  Rusicks 
now  know  how  money  raised  by  the  an- 
nual Eiister  Seal  campaign  is  used.  They 
have  volunteered  to  work  for  the  cam- 
paign which  started  March  6  and  con- 
tinues through  Easter  Sunday,  April  6.

SACRAMENTO  QUEEN  CITY 


Sacramento  is  a  city  that  had  to  be, 
because  it  is  at  this  point  that  main  routes 
of  California  travel  across.  Consider:  Sac- 
ramento lies  at  the  point  where  the  immi- 
grants, traversing  the  Sierra  Nevada,  came 
down  into  the  Great  Central  Valley.  Sac- 
ramento was  the  inland  port  at  which  sup- 
plies for  the  early  gold  miners  were 
landed.  Two  great  river  systems,  the  S.ic- 
ramento  and  the  San  Joaquin,  meet  in  the 
vicinity  of  Sacramento  and  both,  in  the 
early  days,  provided  means  of  transporta- 
tion to  inland  communities. 

Sacramento  grew  because  there  had  to 
be  a  central  community  to  serve  mountain 
and  valley  settlements,  and  by  reason  of 
California  geography,  that  central  com- 
munity had  to  be  where  Sacramento  now 
is,  and  nowhere  else. 

It  was  largely  because  of  this  central 
location  that  Sacramento  was  made  the 
capital  of  the  state. 

Factor.s  Still  Apply 
The  same  factors  which  dictated  the 
development  of  a  city  at  this  point  still 
apply,  and  today  a  great  part  of  the  trans- 
Sierran  motor  traffic,  both  passenger  and 
freight,  funnels  through  Sacramento.  So 
does  a  vast  share  of  the  rail  traffic  east  and 
west.  The  great  north-south  arteries  of 
commerce  run  through  or  near  to  the  city 
and  through  it  pass  the  supplies  recjuired 
by  a  tremendous  agricultural  region,  a 
great  timber  industry-  and  many  food  proc- 
essing plants  and  manufacturing  indus- 
tries. Products  of  all  these  also  pass 
through  Sacramento. 

This  is  the  heart  of  a  region  that  ex- 
tends 200  miles  up  the  valley  of  the  Sac- 
ramento River,  sweeps  over  the  Sierra 
Nevada  to  Lake  Tahoe,  embraces  all  of  the 
lower  Sacramento  River  region,  including 
tremendous  areas  of  California's  richest 
and  most  bountiful  farm  lands,  and 
reaches  off  to  the  south  to  take  in  thous- 
ands of  acres  of  orchards  and  fields. 
This  is  a  land  of  gold.  From  its  sand- 


bars and  river  channels  came  the  millions 
won  by  the  Forty-Niners  and  their  succes- 
sors. From  its  lodes  came  the  other  mil- 
lions dug  by  later  miners.  And  it  is  still  a 
land  of  gold,  but  now  the  gold  comes 
from  agriculture,  from  mighty  forests, 
from  quarries  and  an  industry  growing  so 
rapidly  it  is  difficult  to  count  the  number 
of  plants  and  factories. 

Traffic  Tremendous 

The    traffic    in    and    through    this   city 

naturally   is  tremendous  and  to  maintain 

and  direct  it  in  orderly  flow  has  required 

many  measures.  Sacramento  even  had

heavy  traffic  before  there  was  a  lity  at  this 
point,  for  Sutter's  Fort — now  an  honored 
feature  of  the  city — was  the  goal  of  most 
of  the  thousands  who  crossed  the  plains

and  came  to  California  by  wagon. 

Now  fine  highways  have  replaced  the 
miners'  trails  and  the  stagecoaches'  muddy 
tracks.  State  offices,  necessary  to  serve  a 
California  population  which  has  well-nigh 
doubled  in  the  past  15  years,  stand  in  well- 
parked  grounds  and  downtown  throngs 
shop  in  stores  whose  fronts  are  all  alumi- 
num and  glass.     . 

There  are  new  and  modern  schools. 
There  is  a  public  library  with  a  third  of  a 
million  volumes  and  there  are  seven  hos- 
pitals with  beds  for  1,200  persons. 

The  Municipal  Auditorium  seats  5,000 
persons  and  has  one  of  the  largest  stages 
in  the  West. 

One  of  the  most  attractive  parks  ia  the 
world  is  that  surrounding  the  Capitol. 
This  has  more  than  400  varieties  of  trees, 
shrubs  and  plants,  including  specimens 
from  the  principal  Civil  War  battlefields. 

Industry  and  agriculture  flourish  in  the 
Sacramento  region.  From  the  mountains 
come  3V2  billion  board  feet  of  lumber 
every  year. 

On  the  flatlands,  the  number  and  var- 
iety of  crops  is  staggering — oranges  from 
Oroville,  peaches  from  Yuba  City  and 
Marysville  and  other  regions,  olives  by  the 
thousands  of  tons  from  the  groves  around 
Corning,  almonds  from  all  down  the  cen- 
ter of  the  valley  and  in  the  bottomlands 
grows  nearly  all  of  California's  rice.

There  are  half  a.  millon  sheep  in  the 
Sacramento  region,  and  more  than  3()0,()0() 
cattle.  Dairying  and  hog-raising  are  big 
business.  The  cash  farm  income  crowds 
the  quarter  billion  dollar  mark  and  this  is 
increasing  as  Eolsom  Dam  and  other  struc- 
tures make  more  water  available.  Sacra- 
mento prospers  from  all  of  this. 

The  city  has  long  been  a  place  of  food 
processing.  The  canneries  in  this  one  city 
employ  "i.OOO  persons,  and  other  food

as  many  more.  Elsewhere  in  the  region 
other  food  processing  plants  employ  addi- 
tional thousands. 

Nearby  McClellan  Air  Force  Base  em- 
ploys ^,000  civilians!  Beale  Air  Force 
Base,  near  Marysville,  ranks  as  a  major

SACRAMENTO— Competition  on  the 
highway  is  dangerous  says  the  California 
Highway  Patrol. 

"Drivers  who  attempt  to  race  with  other 
motorists  away  from  trallic  lights  or  on  the 
open  highway  are  flirting  with  danger  and 
possible  death,"  declared  Patrol  Commis- 
sioner B.  R.  Caldwell.  "This  urge  to  beat 
the  other  fellow  frequently  leads  to  a  mis- 
take followed  by  an  accident  in  which  one 
or  more  cars  are  involved. 

"Another  type  of  dangerous  competi- 
tion on  the  highway  is  the  retaliation  man- 
euver made  by  an  angry  driver,"  Caldwell 
reminded  motorists.  "You  only  aggravate 
the  problem  and  increase  the  danger  when 
you  try  to  get  even  for  some  wrong,  im- 
aginary or  real,  inflicted  by  another  motor- 
ist. 

"Driving  in  today's  traffic  calls  for  full 
attention  every  minute  if  safety  is  to  be 
maintained,"  he  said.  "The  safe  way  is  to 
cooperate  with  the  other  driver  and  ignore 
those  who  irk  you  or  try  to  snare  you  into 
competitive  action."

SACRAMENTO  PEDESTRIAN  RECORD 


In  an  era  when  police  departments  in 
many  fast-growing  cities  are  doing  well 
to  hold  the  line  against  an  increase  in 
traffic  accidents,  Sacramento  has  actually, 
reduced  hers.  This  has  been  especially 
true  in  the  case  of  pedestrian  accidents. 

Officials  of  the  California  State  Auto- 
mobile Association,  the  American  Auto- 
mobile Association  affiliated  motor  club 
in  this  region,  under  whose  auspices  an- 
nual Pedestrian  Protection  Contests  are 
held,  declare  Sacramento's  program  is  out- 
standing. 

This  was  not  always  the  case,  either  in 
Sacramento  or  in  many  other  cities.  Im- 
mediately after  World  War  II  the  problem 
of  traffic  safety  was  a  difficult  one  indeed, 
especially  with  regard  to  pedestrians. 
Aroused  by  this  situation,  the  newly-or- 
ganized Institute  of  Transportation  and 
Traffic  Engineering,  of  the  University  of 
California,  set  up  the  First  Western  Insti- 
tute for  Traffic  Training,  one  course  of 
which  was  Pedestrian  Protection.  In  this 
course,  instruction  was  given  by  personnel 
provided  by  the  American  Automobile 
Association. 

Week-lonc  Course 
This  course  lasted  a  week  and  was  at- 
tended by  representatives  of  the  Sacra- 
mento Police  Department.  In  it,  there  was 
presented  a  definite  program  which  could 
be  followed,  detailing,  step  by  step,  the 


things  that  had  been  found  effective  in 
cutting  down  pedestrian  accidents. 

The  Sacramento  Police  Department  and 
the  Sacramento  Traffic  Engineering  De- 
partment immediately  began  putting  this 
plan  into  effect.  As  a  result,  Sacramento 
won  special  AAA  citations  for  the  excel- 
lence of  its  pedestrian  program  in  1949, 
1951,  1952,  1953  and  won  Honorable 
Mention  from  the  AAA  in  1954,  1955 
and  1956. 

The  AAA  recommendations  for  Acci- 
dent Records  include  13  points;  Sacra- 
mento earned  100  per  cent  of  the  possible 
points  under  this  heading  in  1956.  Par 
for  cities  in  Sacramento's  population  class 
is  79  points. 

There  are  12  AAA  recommendations 
having  to  do  with  "Legislation  and  En- 
forcement"  and  Sacramento  earned  81  per 
cent  of  the  possible  points  on  these.  Par 
for  similar-sized  cities  was  47  points. 

Similarly,  the  city  scored  92  points  on 
"Engineering"  against  a  par  of  82;  90 
points  on  "Organization,"  on  which  par

was  70  points;  on  "School  Safety,"  Sac- 
ramento scored  91  against  a  par  of  80;  on 
"Public  Information,"  the  city  scored  85 
against  a  par  of  70. 

Clincher  Given 

Now  here's  the  clincher:  Both  the  total 
of  ALL  traffic  accident  fatalities  and  of 
pedestrian  traffic  accidents  are  dropping. 

In  1955,  17  persons  were  killed  and 
1604  were  injured  in  the  city.  Of  these, 
pedestrian  deaths  accounted  for  8  and 
pedestrian  injuries  accounted  for  278.

Of  these  (ivc  pedestrian  fatalities,  one 
was  a  child  under  4  years  of  age,  one  was 
a  man  between  6")  and  7'>  years  of  age, 
and  the  other  three  were  men  of  more  than 
7^  years.

No  wonder  Sacramento  people  are 
proud  of  the  accident-prevention  record 
achieved  through  the  efforts  of  the  city's 
Police  Department  and  Traffic  Engineer- 
ing Department.  This  is  especially  note- 
worthy in  view  of  the  greatly  increased 
population  and  traffic  in  the  city  in  recent 
years.  -^♦— 

PRINT  VARIATONS 

(Coiitiiiiied  jroiii  (ijge  i<) 
Starch  Pasti: 
The  starch  paste  method  is  not  new.  It 
consists  of  gently  smearing  a  thin  layer  of 
common  white  starch  paste  over  the  fumed 
print.  The  resulting  starch-iodine  com- 
plex produces  a  purplish  color  and  this 
remains  durable  for  many  months.  Our 
modification  of  this  technicjue  has  been 
found  to  yield  superior  results. 

First:  When  applying  the  paste,  it  is 
well  to  wait  until  the  fumed  print  has 
almost  entirely  disappeared.  Failure  to  ob- 
set\e  this  precaution  will  result  in  a  print 
which  is  heavy  and  lacking  in  detail  and 
contrast.  This  type  is  due  to  the  fact  that 
some  of  the  iodine  has  been  absorbed  by 
the  surface  itself.  This  iodine  must  be  al- 
lowed to  disappear  so  that  only  that  iodine 
left  on  the  pattern  remains  to  react. 

Second:  Immediately  following  the  ap- 
plication of  the  wet  paste,  a  clean,  straight 
edge  (a  razor  blade  will  do)  is  used  to 
remove  excess  paste  from  the  surface.  This 
will  uncover  a  sharply  delineated  pattern 
which  will  remain  unobscured  by  a  dried 
paste  coating.  See  Figure  4. 
Spray  Plastic 
The  plastic  spray  method  of  preserva- 
tion of  iodine  fumed  prints  is  essentially 
a  substitute  for  the  practice  of  sandwich- 
ing the  developed  prints  between  plates 
of  glass.  For  this  procedure,  simply  use  a 
plastic  spray  bomb  such  as  may  be  found 
in  a  paint  or  hardware  store.  (I  have 
found  Krylon  acrylic  spray  to  be  quite

Fieure  4  This  illustration  shows  that  excellent  detail  is  preserved  by  the  starch  paste  method 
using  the  modification  explained  by  Or.  Grodsky.  The  prints  (left)  were  fixed  immediately, 
while  with  the  ones  (right),  the  fixing  was  delayed.  .,.,.. 

The  lesser  intensity  of  the  impressions  (right)  might  indicate  that  the  delayed  technique  is 
inferior  to  the  immediate  application  of  the  starch  paste.  Close  appraisal  of  the  original  faxed 
prints,  however,  revealed  clearer  detail  in  the  prints  (right).  The  delayed  application  con- 
sistently gives  superior  results. 


satisfactory.)  For  best  results,  the  spray 
can  is  held  at  such  a  distance  from  the 
fumed  print  that  a  direct  blast  does  not 
strike  the  surface. 

In  cases  where  the  latent  occurs  on 
paper,  the  paper  must  be  sprayed  on  both 
sides  to  seal  in  the  impression.  There  ap- 
pears to  be  no  discoloration  with  this 
method,  and  the  fixed  prints  will  remain 
visible  for  at  least  six  months. 
Opaque  Lifters 

The  opaque  rubber  lifters  used  for  years 
by  evidence  men  for  the  lifting  of  dusted 
prints  have  been  discarded  by  many  in- 
vestigators. The  clear  Scotch  lifting  tape 
has  to  a  large  extent  supplanted  the 
opaque  rubber  lifters.  One  of  the  impor- 
tant reasons  for  this  change  is  the  fact  that

lifter  reverses  the  print.  For  examination 
and  comparison  the  reversed  print  must 
then  be  photographed  and  the  negative 
reversed  before  printing. 

Here  is  a  simple  technique  which  util- 
izes the  good  features  of  the  opaque  lifter 
and  at  the  same  time  overcomes  its  major 
disadvantage. 

When  the  print  has  been  lifted  and  re- 
versed by  the  opaque  lifter,  another  blank 
lifter  is  carefully  placed  in  close  contact 
with  the  original.  When  the  two  are  strip- 
ped apart,  a  portion  of  the  powder  will 
adhere  to  the  second  lifter.  The  print 
which  appears  will  be  a  reversal  of  the 
reversal,  and  will  thus  appear  correctly 
oriented. 

Hopes  Ideas  Will  Be  Helpful 
These  variations  are  a  few  which  have 
grown  out  of  our  studies  in  the  field  of 
criminalistics.  It  is  hoped  that  the  applica- 
tion if  these  methods  will  prove  to  be  use- 
ful to  those  people  in  the  field  of  law  en- 
forcement who  are  concerned  with  evi- 
dence and  identification.

Figure  5.  The  latent  impressions  in  this  illustration  were  dusted  with  a  black  finger  print  pow- 
der, and  subsequently  lifted  with  a  white,  opaque  rubber  lifter  as  shown  on  the  left.  These 
lifted  prints  are,  of  course,  reversed  from^their  natural  order. 

A  second  piece  of  white  rubber  lif'er  was  then  pressed  down  on  top  of  the  first  one,  adhesive 
surface  to  adhesive  surface.  When  the  two  pieces  were  pulled  apart,  part  of  the  original  lift  had 
been  transferred  to  the  second  lift,  producing  the  correctly  oriented  prints  on  the  right.  The 
latter  are  lighter  than  the  original  lift,  but  most  satisfactory  for  either  comparison  or  photog- 
raphy. 

Dr.  Grodsky  believes  that  this  procedure  is  an  improvement  over  the  use  of  a  mirror  for  an 
immediate  comparison.

CITY  OF  TREES 

Woodland  is  the  county  seat  of  Yolo 
C!ounty,  the  wealthiest  agricultural  county 
per  lapit.i  in  the  United  States,  and  a 
small,  but  modern  and  efficient  polite 
force  has  kept  it  trouble  free  and  a  fine 
|il.Ke  to  live  since  the  winter  of  1853 
when  Henry  Wyckoff  erected  the  first 
business  building  here. 

Many  nicknames  have  been  applied  to 
Woodland,  and  it  is  known  far  and  wide 
as  the  "City  of  Trees.  "  A  Kentuckian 
named  F.  S.  Freeman  is  believed  to  have 
been  the  first  man  to  refer  to  the  city  as 
"Woodland"  in  a  petition  circulated  in 
1858  seeking  establishment  of  a  postoffice 
there. 

Wyckoff's  store  furnished  the  first  roof 
for  county  officers  when  the  records  of 
the  county  were  transferred  from  Wash- 
ington, now  known  as  Broderick,  to 
Woodland  following  the  disastrous  floods 
of  1861-62. 

CouRTHou.sF.  In   1863 

The  records  remained  in  the  store  only 
a  year  or  two  because  an  up-to-date  court- 
house was  started  in  September,  1863. 
The  courthouse  was  finished  long  before 
the  growing  community  was  incorporated 
in  1871.  The  first  city  election  was  held 
March  14,  1871,  immediately  after  the 
super\'isors  adopted  the  city  charter. 

The  first  public  meeting  on  the  question 
of  erecting  a  secondary  school  was  held  in 
1869.  The  first  secondary  school  was 
started  soon  thereafter  and  was  known  as 
Hesperian  College. 

Hesperian  College  graduates  continue 
to  hold  periodical  get-togethers  in  Wood- 
land, which  now  boasts  a  primary  school, 
two  elementary  schools  and  a  modern  high 
school.  Students  come  from  neighboring 
counties  to  attend  the  Holy  Rosary  Acad- 
emy which  is  also  situated  here. 

During  the  years,  the  police  have  kept 
crime  to  a  minimum  and  made  the  cit)'  a 
good  place  to  live.

DANGEROUS  HOURS 

The  afternoon  hours  between  4  and  6 
p.m.  are  the  most  dangerous  for  the  mo- 
torist and  the  pedestrian.  When  you  are 
homeward  bound  after  work,  says  the 
California  State  Automobile  Association, 
slow  down  a  little  and  take  extra  tare  in 
driving  or  crossing  streets  on  foot.

CREDIT  COLLECTORS  KEEN 


There's  about  eight  billion  dollars  loose 
in  the  State  of  California,  without  a  lock, 
bar,  or  machine-gun  to  guard  it.  Yet  al- 
most all  of  it  will  come  back  to  the  owners. 

That's  the  amount  owed  by  Califor- 
nians  on  their  current  bills  for  appliances, 
gadgets,  medical  services,  rent,  furniture. 
The  fact  that  so  much  money  can  be  safely 
entrusted  to  other  people  is  due  in  large 
part  to  the  California  Association  of  Col- 
lectors. It  has  '500  hard  working  members 
throughout  the  state. 

To  keep  the  flow  of  consumer  credit 
moving  smoothly,  they  personally  contact 
about  3  million  people  a  year,  write  10,- 
000  letters  every  working  day,  and  em- 
ploy around  2000  people. 

Efficient  Organization 

Like  any  efficient  police  department,  the 
collectors  function  as  an  organization. 
They're  affiliated  with  1500  other  collec- 
tors throughout  the  world.  So  a  credit 
criminal,  skipped  from  Santa  Barbara  to 
St.  Louis  could  very  well  find  that  the  first 
person  to  greet  him  on  arrival — is  the  debt 
adjuster. 

Training  in  modern  procedures  and 
techniques  takes  first  place  in  the  pro- 
fessional collector's  job.  He  studies  psy- 
chology, sociology,  administration  in  clin- 
ics, seminars  and  classes  set  up  by  his  as- 
sociation. 

Policemen  Policed 

Years  ago,  collectors  used  to  be  a  fairly 
tough,  sharp  group  of  opportunists.  Not 
so  any  more.

ped,  with  as  many  as  a  hundred  people  on 
the  payroll,  represents  a  heavy  investment. 
The  shoestring  operator  can't  compete. 
The  guy  with  a  loud  voice,  desk  space, 
and  the  use  of  a  telephone  is  out  of  busi- 
ness. 

Collectors  in  California  are  licensed  and 
bonded,  and  regulated  by  law,  under  the 
Secretary  of  State's  office.  A  full-time  Su- 
perintendent and  a  deputy  keep  tabs  on 
any  licensees  who  might  be  tempted  to 
revert  to  ancient  tactics. 

Credit  Losses  Down 
Despite  a  little  rocking  of  the  economy, 
credit   losses    today   are   at   a    minimum. 
Many  retailers  report  their  "charge-oflfs  " 
are  less  than  one  half  of  one  per  cent. 

Much  of  the  praise  for  this  goes  to  re- 
sponsible buyers,  says  "Challenge"  Mag- 
iiz/iie.  published  by  the  Institute  of  Eco- 
nomic Affairs,  New  York  University.  "But 
these  trouble-shooters  of  the  credit  system 
deserve  their  share.  Their  presence  pre- 
vents many  credit  delinquencies,  and  they 
reclaim  many  nearly-lost  accounts  .  .  . 
they  often  help  people  re-establish  them- 
selves on  a  more  secure  living  plane.  In 
doing  this,  they  help  assure  the  stability 
of  the  credit  system  itself." — By  Clayre 
and  Michel  Lipman.

5-YEAR   DRIVER   LICENSES 

A  large  number  of  good,  experienced 
California  drivers  who  otherwise  would 
be  entitled  to  quick  renewal  of  their  driv- 
er licenses  tor  a  full  five  years  are  having 
to  run  the  full  gamut  of  written  and  road 
tests  to  obtain  three-year  licenses. 

Why? 

Because  State  Department  of  Motor 
Vehicles  officials  explain  they  have  failed 
to  observe  the  requirements  of  a  new 
driver  license  law  that  went  into  effect  in 
September. 

The  law,  called  variously  the  "birthday 
anniversary'  and  the  "reward  for  good 
driving"  act,  stipulates  that  drivers  who 
permit  their  licenses  to  lapse  for  more 
than  30  days  must  take  a  complete  exam- 
ination, including  driving  test,  when  ap- 
plying for  renewal. 

And  it  further  provides  that  unless  ap- 
plication for  renewal  is  made  within  30 
days  after  expiration  of  old  licenses,  the 
term  of  the  new  license  shall  be  limited  to 
three  years.  This,  despite  the  fact  that  the 
driver  might  have  had  a  perfect  driving 
record,  a  circumstance  which  would  have 
entitled  him  to  a  five-year  license,  had  he 
renewed  within  30  days  after  his  old  li- 
cense expired. 

Department  of  Motor  Vehicles  field 
offices  throughout  the  State  report  an  un- 
usually heavy  volume  of  license  renewals 
that  require  the  giving  of  road  tests  to 
drivers  who,  had  they  applied  before  the 
30-day  expiration  deadline,  would  have 
been  entitled  to  new  licenses  merely  upon 
passing  the  law  and  vision  examinations.

FIRE  FAREWELL  TO  1957 


fe  3.5 


Another  year  gone  by  and  it  seems  to 
me  it  went  by  in  a  big  hurry  with  a  gusto 
and  vim  that  makes  me  wonder  if  the  re- 
maining years  ahead  of  me  will  go  as  tast 
as  l')*)?.  It  is  said  that  the  older  one  gets 
the  faster  the  years  skim  by  and  I  am  be- 
ginning to  take  some  stoik  in  the  old 
cliche.  Anyhow,  it  was  a  wonderful  season 
both  for  the  club  and  the  shooters  with 
weather  to  match — the  kind  of  weather 
that  only  the  Oakland  Club  provides  for 
the  mobs  that  come  to  the  matches.  This 
year,  if  indications  are  correct,  the  Ciul^ 
should  realize  one  of  their  biggest  years 

There  will  be  a  slight  change  in  iIk 
medal  awards  in  19'i8.  There  will  be  eight 
classes  with  each  class  being  divided  into 
a  "pro"  class  and  the  regular  class.  This 
breaks  down  the  classes  so  more  shooters 
can  obtain  medals.  No  doubt  you  received 
your  ballot  and  voted  your  choice. 

Level  Parkinc;  Lot 
I  understand  the  state  is  moving  in  a 
few  tractors,  men  and  SSSS$SS  and  will 
level  off  the  parking  lot  across  (south) 
from  the  refreshment  booth  and  also  re- 
pair the  road  up  to  the  range  from  the 
lower  level  of  the  200.  This  has  been 
promised  for,  oh,  so  many  years  that  I 
won't  believe  it  until  I  see  it. 

There  was  quite  a  flurry  in  the  19'57  .22 
timed  tire  match  when  Walt  Van  Dehey, 
Karl  Schaugaard  and  Milt  Klipfel  all  came 
clean  with  a  200  possible.  As  a  rule  the 
"I's"  usually  have  it  but  in  this  case  it 
was  the  "X's"  that  had  it  with  Walt  hav- 
ing 1  h  of  'em  on  his  target  was  awarded 
the  first  place,  then  came  Karl  and  fol- 
lowed by  Milt.  That's  a  nice  tie  score  in 
any  man's  shooting. 

Throws  Scope  Aw  av 
Bill  Thompson,  of  the  Stanford  Re- 
search Institute  Security  Force,  has  decided 
that  the  best  thing  he  can  do  for  the  new 
year  is  to  throw  his  'scope  away.  It's  the 
same  story   told  here  so  often.   Bill  was

five  lO's  in  the  first  slow  tire  string.  Then

Turn  In  Cards 

In  order  to  get  recognition,  or  a  medal, 
for  an  aggregate  score  it  is  necessary  for 
the  contestant  to  turn  in  his  aggregate 
card.  It  is  not  at  all  uncommon  for  at  least 
five  shooters  during  ANY  Sunday  shoot 
to  forget  that  small  item  of  procedure. 
Doc  Geiger  was  one  of  'em  who  forgot 
and  no  doubt  is  still  wondering  why  he 
never  received  that  medal  he  figured  he 
won. 

Received  a  card  from  Mike  Carroll;  all 
the  way  from  Africa  where  Mike  has  been 
for  the  past  couple  of  months  sharpening 
his  eyes  on  lions,  tigers  and  elephants. 
Mike,  as  you  probably  know,  is  also  quite 
a  painter  of  animal  life  and  along  with 
his  huntin'  he  intends  to  dash  off  quick 
like  a  portrait  of  a  few  of  the  dark  conti- 
nents animals. 

Harry  Plummer  as  you  know,  is  a  red- 
hot  for  pistol  shooting  and  is  coach  of 
the  Olympic  Club  team  but  there  is  one 
thing  Harry  dislikes  and  that  is  having  the 
Highway  Patrol  Team  most  always  win- 
ning the  aggregate  team  trophy.  Harry  has 
set  for  his  goal  this  coming  season,  and 
also  his  biggest  New  Year's  resolution,  to 
put  a  team  on  the  lines  for  the  Olympic 
Club  that  will  definitely  shoot  holes  all 
around  the  Hiway  team.  That's  a  pretty 
big  job  for  Harry  and  he  will  have  to 
work  pretty  hard  as  those  Hiway  boys  are 
a  tuff  lot  when  it  comes  to  burning  pow- 
der. 

Pills  Potent 

Which  reminds  me  (but  why,  I  don't 
know)  of  Art  Treadwell  and  his  love  of 
shooting.  Art  will  try  or  do  anything  to 
improve  his  scores  so  one  day  a  few  years 
ago  one  of  our  medical  shooters  had  some 
kind  of  a  pill  he  would  take  to  kinda 
steady  his  nerves.  Art  heard  of  it  and 
bummed  a  couple  off  the  doctor  but  took 
'em  all  at  once.  Well  sir,  so  help  me

Art  slept  thru  the  whole  days  shooting 
.ind  his  wife  had  a  hell  of  a  time  trying 
to  keep  him  awake  while  driving  home.  I 
understand  Art  will  tr)-  anything  to  im- 
prove his  scores— except  pills! 

Bill  Corbett  has  been  trying  for  years 
to  attain  the  wonderful  feeling  of  telling 
the  gang  of  the  day  "I  shot  a  possible." 
Practice,  practice  and  practice  kept  Bill 
on  edge  in  the  hopes  that  one  day  he 
would  arrive.  But  never  did  it  happen. 
Bill  feels  kinda  lazylike  so  doesn't  take 
too  much  stock  in  his  shooting  and  winds 
up  the  CF  timed-fire  string  with  that  pos- 
sible he'd  been  looking  for  for  so  long. 
But  as  I  said  earlier.  Bill  wasn't  paying 
much  attention  to  his  targets  and  shooting 
irons  and  didn't  notice  the  possible  until 
someone  congratulated  him.  Bill  thought 
the  guy  was  kidding  him  and  to  this  day 
Bill  thinks  someone  slipped  him  a  phony 
target. 

So  at  the  close  of  the  1957  season  I 
might  mention  that  the  gang  of  shooters 
should  give  a  nice  hand  clasp  and  cheer 
for  the  ladies  in  the  statistical  office  who 
have  so  faithfully  done  all  the  figuring  at 
each  match  and  I  know  that  the  ladies 
enjoyed  doing  it. 

Will  be  looking  forward  to  seeing  you 
in  19')8.

GAS  SUBTLE  KILLER 


Colorless,  odorless,  tasteless  carbon 
monoxide  gas  is  one  of  the  most  subtle 
killers  in  the  motoring  world  today. 

Here  is  the  killer  that  works  with  spe- 
cial effectiveness  during  these  cold  days 
of  winter  and  early  spring  when  drivers 
feel  the  nip  in  the  air,  decide  to  roll  all 
these  windows  up  tight  to  keep  out  the 
cold,  and  rely  on  their  lights  to  give  their 
signals.  With  a  leak  in  the  exhaust  system 
and  an  almost  airtight  car,  carbon  mon- 
oxide gas  can  do  a  very  fast  job  indeed. 

Brief  exposure  to  even  a  slight  concen- 
tration of  this  gas  will  impair  driving 
skill.  Brief  exposure  to  a  greater  concen- 
tration of  the  gas  will  almost  always  end 
in  death.  You  are  seized  by  a  helpless 
drowsiness  and  soon  slip  into  an  uncon- 
sciousness  from  which  you  never  wake. 

Fight  Drowsiness 

If  you  find  yourself  getting  headachy  or 
drowsy  while  driving,  the  National  Auto- 
mobile Club  advises  you  to  open  these 
windows  immediately  and  let  the  fresh  air 
stream  through.  If  you  find  yourself  quite 
often  getting  headachy  and  drowsy  while 
driving  your  car,  especially  if  the  windows 
are  closed,  it's  time  to  have  that  exhaust 
system  carefully  checked. 

In   older  cars   the  exhaust  system  can

develop  little  leaks.  The  exhaust  gasket, 
which  seals  the  joint  between  the  exhaust 
manifold  and  the  exhaust  pipe,  is  parti- 
cularly vulnerable.  Exposed  to  great  heats, 
this  gasket  often  develops  small  leaks  that 
don't  reveal  themselves  by  a  change  in  the 
sound  or  the  operation  of  the  running 
motor.  Having  a  thorough  check  of  your 
exhaust  system  will  save  you  from  serious 
trouble  later. 

Once  the  system  has  been  thoroughly 
checked,  and  repaired  if  necessary,  don't 
make  the  fatal  mistake  of  running  your 
car  in  a  closed  garage.  Before  you  start  the 
motor,   open   those   doors  wide.  -

Gentlemen; 

I  want  to  return  your  Greetings  And 
Best  Wishes  for  a  Happy  and  Prosperous 
19'>8  and  wish  you  and  your  staff,  also 
the  magazine,  the  same. 

I  have  enjoyed  receiving  your  magazine, 
have  obtained  a  lot  of  information  from 
its  contents  and  enjoyed  reading  it  very 
muth.  It  really  paints  a  real  picture  of 
the  Police  Departments  of  the  State  of 
dlifornia. 

I  do  not  know  whether  you  have  the 
information  of  how  I  got  onto  your  mail- 
ing list.  O.  P.  Warner,  your  man  Friday, 
(former  Journal  editor)   was  a  cousin 
of  mine.  He  and  I  were  very  friendly  with 
one  another  and  he  continued  mailing  me 
your  magazine.  Since  his  death,  you  have 
continued  to  do  the  same  and  I  want  to 
thank   you    very    much.    Sincerely    yours,

TO   THE 


Editor: 

The  Point  Arena  City  Council  voted 
3-2  to  abolish  the  City  Marshall's  office 
on  January  n. 

The  protest  of  letters  signed  by  over 
200  people  and  with  51  citizens  present 
at  the  meeting — those  in  the  saddle  over- 
ruled the  wishes  of  the  majority  to  retain 
their  City  Marshal. 

Point  Arena  has  been  incorporated  since 
1908,  and  now  has  a  population  of  481.

When  in  the  year  1900  American  auto- 
motive manufacturers  turned  out  a  total 
of  4,192  motor  vehicles  to  surpass  for  the 
first  time  the  output  of  carriage  and  wagon 
makers,  they  started  a  trend  in  transpor- 
tation, points  out  the  National  Automobile 
Club,  that  was  to  change  the  face  of  Amer- 
ica. 

In  the  year  1900  the  American  farmer 
found  the  road  to  town  was  a  long  and 
muddy  one  and  one  that  he  seldom  cared 
to  take.  If  his  farm  wasn't  near  a  railroad 
he  produced  almost  exclusively  for  local 
consumption.  The  American  businessman 
in  the  city  found  that  transportation  was 
slow  and  that  he  had  to  live  near  the  place 
where  he  worked  if  he  wanted  to  get 
there  on  time.  As  a  result  cities  were  small 
and  tightly  packed. 

Today  the  American  farmer  finds  that 
the  road  to  town  is  a  broad  sweeping  all- 
weather  highway  and  one  that  he  often 
takes.  He  finds  that  his  products  can  be 
shipped  swiftly  and  surely  by  means  of 
fast-moving  trucks  over  a  great  network  of 
roads.  And  the  American  businessman, 
tired  by  a  day  in  the  hum  of  the  city,  can 
climb  into  his  car  and  drive  home  at  night 
to  his  home  in  the  country.  The  American 
city  has  spread  out,  has  become  surround-

ed  by  quiet  suburban  and  residential  areas. 

The  whole  population  has  become  fluid 
and  has  given  itself  over  to  moving  about. 
While  in  1900  the  average  American  sel- 
dom strayed  more  than  200  miles  from  his 
home,  today  he  thinks  nothing  at  all  of 
taking  to  the  road  for  a  2,000  mile  trip 
during  his  summer  vacation.  Our  recrea- 
tional travel  has  broadened  out  tremen- 
dously and  mass  attendance  at  such  places 
as  parks,  golf  courses,  theaters,  and  sports 
stadiums  has  become  possible. 

And  what  does  the  future  hold?  Al- 
ready we  have  inklings  of  that  in  the 
trends  that  have  been  established.  Car  out- 
put continues  to  increase  and  within  the 
next  generation  there  should  be  some  70,- 
000,000  cars  on  the  road.  Broader  and 
more  streamlined  highways  are  linking 
our  centers  of  population  in  ever  more 
skillfully  engineered  ways.  The  motor  car 
is  steadily  working  its  changes  in  the  mod- 
ern American  scene. 


HISTORIC  BUILDINGS 

Sacramento  has  more  historic  buildings

SOUTH  CITY  WELL  POLICED 


The  biggest  little  city  in  the  West! 

The  population  numbers  38,000  souls 
and  the  police  force  has  3">  men  to  ad- 
minister the  law — more  than  1000  people 
per  officer. 

Three  are  sergeants,  one  a  captain,  and 
the  balance  patrolmen.  Louis  Belloni  is 
the  chief. 

This  is  South  San  Francisco  with  more 
than  UK)  large  industries  in  its  area.  There 
are  the  largest  canned  meat  companies, 
cookie  and  candy  factories,  paint  plants. 
plus  the  two  largest  motels  in  Northern 
California.  Two  huge  air  lines  quarter 
there. 

In  the  city  proper  are  sixteen  churches, 
a  large  park,  several  schools  and  thirty- 
eight  taverns. 

Suburbs  Protected 

Brentwood  and  Buri  Buri,  two  small 
suburbs  are  also  part  of  South  City. 

To  guard  this  small  but  active  town, 
under  Chief  Belloni  are  Captain  August 
Terragno,  Sergeants  Mario  Blandini,  Ber- 
nie  Esparza  and  Vince  Beanchini,  and  the 
patrolmen  who  are  also  radio  car  opera- 
tors. The  radios  are  the  three-way  type. 

The  South  City  jail  is  the  only  one  on 
the    Peninsula,    next    to    Redwood    City,

It  is  one  of  the  rare  cities  in  booming 
California  where  the  streets  are  cleared 
by  10  p.m.  with  only  a  few  people  out 
later  in  this  hard-working,  early  rising 
community.  A  city  ordinance  prohibiting 
the  misuse  of  alcohol  is  strictly  enforced

Vandalism  Love 

The  South  City  system  for  catching 
prowlers  is  without  a  doubt  unusual — 
and  effective.  Vandalism  is  kept  to  a  min- 
imum with  an  effective  patrol  system  that 
finds  the  cars  crossing  and  recrossing  on 
a  pattern  that  makes  prowling  and  delin- 
quency very  unhealthy. 

On  the  desk  to  answer  the  calls  as  they 
come  in  are  Lou  Paglierani,  20,  Lou  Nuri- 
sio,  22,  Ralston  Eng,  23,  and  Ted  Silvas. 
Record  man  is  Richard  Canziani. 

Jim  Keane  and  Irv  Varney  are  on  mo- 
torcyc  Ics. 

John  Fabbri,  inspector  for  South  City, 
has  the  difficult  job  of  attempting  to  solve 
all  major  crimes  in  the  area,  thereby  mak- 
ing his  job  one  of  the  hardest  and  longest 
on  the  force.  He  does  an  excellent  job. 

These  then  are  just  a  few  of  the  men 
who  took  an  oath  to  defend  with  their 
very  lives,  the  property,  the  rights,  the 
lives  of  the  citizens  of  South  San  Fran- 
cisco. 

They  are  brave  men — alert  men,  dedi- 
cated men — they  are  the  South  San  Fran- 
cisco Police  Department. 

Children  Precious 
But  they  have  still  another  chore,  per- 
haps  even   more   important  to   the  com- 
munity— safeguarding  the   lives  of  their 
children. 

The  horribly  mangled  body  of  a  small 
child  lying  dead  beneath  the  wheels  of  a 
car  just  before  Christmas  one  year  was 
enough  to  make  a  new  and  rigid  code  for 
the  community  to  enforce  among  all  their

school  children.  Chief  of  Police  Louis 
Belloni  gave  Allen  Klemme,  28,  and  the 
father  of  two  children  the  task. 

Allen  has  been  the  Juvenile  officer  and 
only  recently  has  taken  on  the  new  and 
worthy  task  of  organizing  Junior  Traffic 
Safety, 

The  record  number  of  auto-bicycle  ac- 
cidents reached  a  new  all-time  high  and 
sparked  the  new  Safety  Education  Cam- 
paign in  the  community. 

Talks  And  Films 

Officer  Klemme  has  already  given  many 
talks  and  shown  innumerable  films  re- 
cently to  more  than  7,000  children  in  both 
private  and  public  schools  dealing  with 
traffic  safety. 

In  telling  about  this  work,  Chief  Bel- 
loni stated:  "The  amount  of  auto-bike  ac- 
cidents now  is  very  definitely  below  aver- 
age when  you  remember  that  there  are 
2,257  bikes  registered  in  this  city  this 
year." 

As  part  of  the  program,  the  Lion's  Club 
in  So.  San  Francisco  has  donated  a  trophy 
to  be  given  the  school  with  the  best  safety 
Patrol,  and  the  American  Automobile  As- 
sociation will  view  the  new  patrol  oper- 
ations early  this  spring. 

Children  are  a  precious  commodity  to 
the  loyal  men  of  the  South  City  Police 
Force.

STOPS  NOT  PERMANENT 

The  driver  who  is  confronted  by  a  stop 
sign  at  a  through  highway  is  obliged  to 
stop.  He  is  not  obliged  to  renounce  his 
right  of  way  indefinitely  or  to  wait  for  any 
great  length  of  time  for  a  break  in  the 
stream  of  traffic  to  come  along,  according 
to  the  National  Auto  Club. 

Once  he  has  come  to  a  complete  stop 
and  has  yielded  the  right  of  way  to  vehi- 
cles on  the  through  highway  that  are  close 
enough  to  constitute  an  immediate  hazard, 
he  may  proceed  "and  the  drivers  of  all 
other  vehicles  approaching  on  that  part  of 
the  roadway  protected  by  the  stop  sign 
shall  yield  the  right  of  way  to  the  vehicle 
so  about  to  enter  or  cross  such  protected 
part  of  the  roadway."  (California  Vehicle 
Code,  Section  552.) 

Letting  that  driver  into  the  stream  of 
traffic  after  he  has  stopped  at  the  stop  sign 
is  not  just  a  matter  of  being  courteous.  It 
is  a  matter  of  obeying  the  law.  This  is  an 
aspect  of  the  law  that  too  many  drivers 
seem  to  know  too  little  about.

$51  BILLION  FOR  NEW  ROADS 


The  Federal-Aid  Highway  Act  of  1956 
paved  the  way  for  at  least  51  billion  dol- 
lars' worth  of  new  roads,  roads  that  will 
enable  increasing  numbers  of  motorists  to 
move  about  the  nation  easier,  quicker,  and 
safer. 

•  Backbone  of  the  entire  13-year  road- 
building  program,  according  to  the  Na- 
tional Automobile  Club,  is  a  41,000-mile 
network  called  the  National  System  of  In- 
ter-State and  Defense  Highway.  These  key 
roads  will  join  every  state  of  the  Union, 
42  of  the  state  capitals  and  209  of  the  232 
cities  of  more  than  50,000  population. 

They  will  cut  the  country  eight  times 
from  north  to  south  and  four  times  from 
coast  to  coast.  They  are  being  planned  to 
handle  the  transit  demands  of  1975,  with 
as  many  as  eight  lanes  of  divided  traffic. 
Roads  that  are  not  eight  lanes  will  have 
enough  right-of-way  so  they  can  be  wid- 
ened later,  if  necessary. 

The  highways  will  be  of  the  "limited 
access"  type.  Railroads  and  cross  roads 
will  pass  over  or  under  the  Inter-State  Sys- 
tem, enabling  motorists  to  drive  unhamp- 
ered by  cross  traffic  or  stop  signs. 

The  work  on  the  Inter-State  System  and

the  other  aspects  of  the  giant  program  will 
constitute  the  largest  construction  project 
ever  undertaken.  The  Panama  Canal  was 
a  mere  633-million-dollar  affair. 

This  outlay  of  51  billion  dollars  will 
create  an  estimated  270,000  individual 
construction  jobs  by  1961,  the  year  the 
program  will  be  in  high  gear.  In  addition, 
countless  more  jobs  will  be  created  in  sup- 
plying industries  —  machinery,  cement, 
steel,  off-site  engineers,  and  the  like. 

The  Inter-State  System  projects  alone 
will  consume  5.2  million  tons  of  steel  in 
a  single  year,  roughly  one-sixteenth  of  the 
nation's  total  yearly  steel  output.  In  the 
third  year,  when  the  cement-pouring 
reaches  a  peak,  it  will  need  112  million 
barrels  of  cement. 

Part  of  the  51  billion  dollars  will  be  put 
up  by  the  Federal  government,  and  the 
rest  will  be  paid  by  the  states  according 
to  their  grants  from  the  Federal  govern- 
ment. 

The  program  will  be  costly  in  terms  of 
capital  investment,  but  it  will  be  a  sound 
investment.  It  is  estimated  that  the  aver- 
age driver,  covering  9,000  miles,  will  be 
able  to  save  about  $90  a  year  in  operating

costs.  His  additional  taxes  levied  to  finance 
the  program  will  be  approximately  |7  an- 
nually. 

More  importantly,  points  out  the  Na- 
tional Automobile  Club,  highway  experts 
predict  that  the  new  roads  will  save  3,500 
lives  annually,  through  properly  engi- 
neered curves  and  grades,  divided  traffic 
lanse,  planned  access,  and  other  modern 
highway  design  factors.

RUNAWAY  AUTOS 

Any  damage  caused  by  a  motor  vehicle 
which  runs  away  on  a  hill  street  must  be 
reported  by  the  owner  of  the  vehicle  to  the 
proper  authorities  and  to  those  whose 
property  is  involved,  says  the  California 
State  Automobile  Association. 

Motor  vehicles  that  plunge  down  grades 
because  they  are  improperly  parked  or 
slip  their  brakes  are  one  of  the  hazards  of 
the  motor  age  in  hilly  or  mountain  com- 
munities. Owners  of  runaway  vehicles 
sometimes  also  fail  to  report  such  accidents 
to  the  proper  police  authorities  and  to 
give  their  names  and  address  to  the  owners 
of  the  property  destroyed. 

The  AAA  motorists'  organization  re- 
ports that  the  law  has  been  strengthened 
to  make  it  exceedingly  uncomfortable  for 
anyone  guilty  of  failure  to  make  proper 
notifications.  The  new  law  requires  a  per- 
son whose  vehicle  escapes  on  a  slope  and 
causes  destruction  of  property  to  make  a 
full  report  to  the  police,  sheriff  or  State 
Highway  Patrol  or  be  guilty  of  a  hit-and- 
run  violation.

VEHICLE  CODE  CHANGES 


Among  imbortant  new  motoring  Lnis 
adofited  hy  the  /9^7  Colijoniia  Legisla- 
ture now  in  effect  are  those  coiering  U- 
turns.  turns  against  a  red  light,  teenage 
drivers,  turnouts  of  slown/oring  vehicles 
and  truck  speed  limits. 

Uniform  U-turns 
Uncertainty  existed  regarding  the  mat- 
ter of  ni-ikinj;  U-turns  at  a  signalized  in- 
tersection, particularly  in  business  centers, 
under  the  former  law.  Moreover,  enforce- 
1  ment   of   the    law    regarding   such   turns 
varied  in  many  communities.  The  new  law 
removes  the  uncertainty  and  will  tend  to 
[  make  enforcement  more  uniform  through- 
i  out  the  state.  This  is  the  summary  of  its 
provisions: 

No  U-turn  can  be  made  at  a  signalized 
intersection  unless  a  sign  at  the  intersec- 
tion expressly  states  that  such  a  turn  can 
be  made.  If  there  is  no  sign  stating  that 
a  U-turn  can  be  made  at  a  signalized  in- 
tersection, then  such  a  turn  at  the  inter- 
section is  prohibited.  Of  course,  where  a 
U-turn  is  permitted,  it  must  be  made  on  a 
green  or  "Go"  light  and  only  when  such 
a  movement  will  not  interfere  with  vehi- 
cular and  pedestrian  traffic  proceeding  as 
directed  by  the  signal. 

Red  Licht  Turns 

Some  uncertainty  also  existed  for  motor- 
ists with  respect  to  making  turns  against 
the  red  light  at  signalized  intersections. 
This  matter  has  been  clarified  by  the  new 
law. 

Right  turns  against  a  red  light,  after 
stopping  and  waiting  for  the  intersection 
to  clear,  may  be  made  at  any  signalized 
intersection  in  a  business  center  or  else- 
where, unless  a  sign  erected  at  the  inter- 
sation  forbids  such  turns. 

Left  turns  from  a  one-way  street  into 
another  one-way  street  may  also  be  made 
against  a  red  light,  after  stopping  and 
waiting  for  the  intersection  to  clear,  unless

a  sign  prohibits  such  turns. 

Drivers  should  keep  in  mind,  of  course, 
that  it  is  never  lawful  to  make  a  left  turn 
against  a  red  light  from  a  one-way  street 
into  a  two-way  street,  from  a  two-way 
street  into  a  one-way  street  or  from  a  two- 
way  street  into  another  two-way  street. 

Tl-UNACIHRS    CURBHI) 

Vitally  affected  by  a  series  of  new  laws 
are  teenage  drivers.  Major  changes  in  the 
statutes  involving  the  driving  privileges 
of  young  people  cover  instruction  permits, 
junior  permits  and  the  age  limit  of  oper- 
ators. 

Under  the  new  law  a  driver  accompany- 
ing or  supervising  the  driving  of  the  hold- 
er of  an  instruction  permits  must  be  18 
years  or  over  and  must  have  a  valid  oper- 
ator's license.  Prior  to  the  change,  the 
driver  accompanying  the  holder  of  an  in- 
struction permit  merely  had  to  be  licensed. 
This  often  resulted  in  l6-ycar-olds  "teach- 
ing" l6-year-olds  to  drive,  a  condition 
that  created  many  problems  in  enforce- 
ment and  accident  investigation  work  that 
now  can  be  more  effectively  controlled. 

Formerly  the  law  permitted  the  State 
Department  of   Motor  Vehicles  to  issue

junior  operator  license  to  rural  area  boys 
and  girls  between  the  ages  of  ll  and  lf>, 
but  not  to  urban  residents.  The  theory  was 
that  lack  of  adequate  transportation  facili- 
ties in  farm  or  ranch  districts  made  if  ad- 
visable to  extend  driving  privileges  to 
some  qualified  14-  and  15-year  olds  re- 
siding in  those  areas. 

No  Distinction 

The  new  law  makes  no  distinction  be- 
tween rural  and  urban  residents,  but  sets 
up  a  program  of  issuing  "junior  permits" 
based  upon  need  to  any  qualified  person 
between  1  1  and  16  years  of  age,  and  abol- 
ishes the  junior  operator's  license. 

Upon  application,  successful  completion 
of  tests  and  compliance  with  all  Vehicle 
Code  requirements  for  minors,  a  14-  or 
15-year  old  may  be  issued  a  junior  [K-rmit 
when,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Motor  Vehicle 
Department,  any  one  or  more  of  the  fol- 
lowing circumstances  exist: 

1.  School  or  other  transportation  facil- 
ities are  inadequate  for  regular  attendance 
at  school  and  at  activities  authorized  by 
the  school.  The  application  for  a  junior 
permit  shall  be  accompanied  by  a  signed 
statement  from  the  school  principal  veri- 
fying such  facts.  A  junior  permit  issued 
under  this  provision  is  restricted  to  oper- 
ating a  vehicle  from  the  residence  to  the 
school  and  return. 

2.  Reasonable  transportation  facilities 
are  inadequate  and  operation  of  a  vehicle 
by  a  minor  is  necessary  due  to  illness  of  a 
family  member.  The  application  shall  be

containing  a  diagnosis  and  probable  date

quate, and  use  of  a  motor  vehicle  is  nec- 
essary in  the  transportation  to  and  from

applicant's  income  from  such  employment 
is  essential  in  the  support  of  the  family, 
or  where  the  applicant's  operation  of  a 
motor  vehicle  is  essential  in  an  enterprise 
from  which  an  appreciable  portion  of  the 
income  of  the  family  will  be  derived.  The 
application  shall  be  accompanied  by  a 
signed  statement  from  the  pareats  or 
guardian,  setting  forth  the  reasons  a  per- 
mit is  necessary  under  this  provision  of 
the  law. 

Some  Refused 

The  existence  of  public  transportation 
which  has  stops  at  reasonable  intervals 
within  one  mile  of  the  residence  of  the 
applicant  may  be  considered  adequate 
grounds  for  refusal  of  a  junior  permit. 
Moreover,  if  the  conditions  or  location  of 
residence  change  prior  to  the  expiration  of 
the  permit,  the  permit  may  be  cancelled. 

The  Motor  "Vehicle  Department  must 
also  impose  proper  restrictions  upon  jun- 
ior permits  in  accordance  with  the  condi- 
tions under  which  they  are  used  and  ap- 
propriate to  the  area  in  which  they  are  to 
be  used.  It  may  revoke  any  permit  when 
this  is  necessary  for  the  welfare  of  the 
minor  in  the  interest  of  society  or  if  it  is 
determined  that  the  permittee  has  oper- 
ated a  vehicle  in  violations  of  restrictions. 
When  the  holder  of  a  junior  permit 
reaches  16  years  of  age,  he  must  then  of 
course  apply  for  a  regular  operator's  li- 
cense. 

No  one  under  the  age  of  16  years  can 
obtain  a  regular  operator's  license  except 
young  people  I5V2  years  old  who  have 
successfully  completed  in  California  a  sec- 
ondary course  in  behind-the-wheel  driver 
training.

solved,  particularly  on  two-lane  highways, 
by  making  such  vehicles  turn  out  at  prop- 
erly designated  points  to  allow  other  vehi- 
cles to  pass.  The  new  law  on  this  point 
reads : 

"On  a  two-lane  highway  where  passing 
is  unsafe  because  of  tratlic  in  the  opposite 
direction  or  other  conditions,  a  slow-mov- 
ing vehicle,  behind  which  tivc  or  more  ve- 
hicles are  formed  in  a  line,  shall  turn  off 
the  highway  at  the  nearest  place  desig- 
nated as  a  turnout  by  signs  erected  by  the 
authority  ha\  ing  jurisdiction  over  the

rate  of  speed  less  than  the  normal  flow 
of  traffic  at  the  particular  time  and  place." 

This  law  applies  to  private  passenger 
cars  as  well  as  to  trucks,  cars  hauling 
trailers  and  other  vehicles. 

Further  effort  by  the  Legislature  to  min- 
imize the  congestion  of  traffic  behind  slow- 
moving  vehicles  is  embodied  in  the  law  on 
designated  truck  lanes.  The  California  De- 
partment of  Public  Works  on  state  high- 
ways, or  a  local  authority  on  highways 
under  its  jurisdiction,  may  designate  a  spe- 
cific lane  or  specific  lanes  on  which  heavy 
vehicles  with  three  or  more  axles  must 
travel.  These  lanes,  however,  must  be  de- 
termined on  the  basis  of  an  engineering 
and  traffic  study  definitely  indicating  that 
the  safe  and  orderly  movement  of  traffic 
would  be  facilitated  by  the  special  traffic 
designation.  The  authority  must  also  erect 
signs  at  reasonable  intervals  giving  notice 
of  the  lanes  to  be  used  by  slow-moving 
vehicles. 

Safe  Truck  Speeds 

a  problem  frequently  in  the  public 
limelight  in  recent  years  is  the  speed  of 
heavy  trucks  on  state  highway  down- 
grades. Under  a  new  law  the  California 
Department  of  Public  Works  is  given  au- 
thority to  revise  the  45-mile-an-hour  speed 
limit  for  trucks  on  descending  grades,  the 
revision  to  be  determined  on  the  basisof 
engineering,  vehicle  equipment  and  traffic

studies.  The  Department  can  declare  a 
speed  limit  of  -iO,  i'S,  30,  2'i  or  20  miles 
an  hour,  that  is,  whichever  limit  is  found 
most  appropriate  for  the  safe  and  orderly 
movement  of  traffic  on  the  particular  por- 
tion of  highway  affected.  Of  course,  signs 
must  be  erected  by  the  Department  to  give 
proper  notice  of  the  required  speed  limit. 

It  is  a  fundamental  fact  of  physics  that 
the  heavier  the  vehicle,  the  more  difficult 
it  is  to  stop.  Weight,  therefore,  is  a  vital 
factor  in  .setting  truck  speed  limits.  How- 
ever, traffic  officers  are  confronted  with  a 
ticklish  problem  in  enforcing  truck  speed 
limits  on  the  basis  of  weight.  For  one 
thing,  it  isn't  easy  to  judge  the  weight  of  a 
loaded  or  unloaded  truck  by  merely  look- 
ing at  it,  and,  for  another,  it  isn't  usually 
convenient  to  have  a  truck  driven  to  scales 
to  have  its  weight  properly  verified.  Hence 
the  legislators  h.ive  passed  a  law  that 
makes  the  truck  speed  limit  easier  to  en- 
force, since  the  limit  is  now  determined  by 
the  number  of  axels.  If  a  rig  has  three  or 
more  axles,  it  is  assumed  to  have  an  un- 
laden weight  of  12,000  pounds  or  more, 
so  that  the  fixed  maximum  speed  limit  (or 
absolute  speed  limit)  of  4^  miles  an  hour 
would  apply.  Here  is  the  law  as  it  appears 
on  the  pages  of  the  Vehicle  Code: 

"Any  motor  truck  or  truck  tractor  hav- 
ing three  or  more  axles  or  any  motor  truck 
or  truck  tractor  with  any  trailer  or  semi- 
trailer, or  any  combination  thereof,  shall 
not  be  driven  on  any  highway  at  a  speed 
in  excess  of  45  miles  an  hour." 

(The  summaries  of  the  new  motor  ve- 
hicles laws  was  from  "Motorland,"'  fine 
piihlication  of  the  California  State  Auto- 
mobile Association.)

SANTA  CRUZ  IS  VACATIONLAND 


Set  like  a  jewel  in  the  broad  crown  of 
the  Pacific  is  the  resort  town  of  Santa 
Cruz,  74  miles  south  of  San  Francisco  and 
.374  miles  northwest  of  Los  Angeles. 

Faced  with  a  unique  police  problem  in 
that  the  force  must  cope  not  only  with 
summer  vacationists,  but  also  fishermen, 
golfers,  and  the  resident  community  that 
includes  employees  of  many  light  indus- 
tries and  manufacturing  plants,  the  Santa 
Cruz  law  enforcement  officers  have  done 
an  outstanding  job. 

The  recreational  facilities  of  Santa  Cruz 
are  many  and  varied.  Two  city  parks,  12 
playgrounds,  eight  State  Parks  in  the  vicin- 
ity, salt-water  plunge,  skin  diving,  sport 
and  stream  fishing,  speed  boating,  yacht- 
ing, horseback  riding,  redwood  groves  and 
a  multitude  of  other  divertments  make  the 
area  a  playground  for  young  and  old. 

Santa  Cruz  is  easily  accessible  from  all 
parts  of  the  state.  Highways  1,  9,  and  17 
funnel    into   the  area.   The  Watsonvillc-

GENUINE -OR  FORGED? 

By  John  J.  Harris,  Examiner  of  Questioned  Documenh,  Los  Angeles 


John  J.  Harris  is  a  member  of  the 
American  Society  of  Questioned  Docu- 
ment Examiners  and  for  a  number  of  years 
instructed  a  course  on  his  specialty  at  the 
University  of  Southern  California.  He  is 
a  partner  in  the  frm  of  Harris  &  Harris 
of  Los  Angeles  and  San  Francisco  and  has 
testified  as  a  document  examiner  in  over 
five  hundred  trials.  His  father,  John  L. 
Harris,  is  a  nationally  known  expert  and 
Past  President  of  the  A.S.Q.D.E.  In  addi- 
tion to  their  private  practice  the  Harrises 
also  handle  all  questioned  document  uork 
for  the  Los  Angeles  County  Sheriff's  Office 
involving  some  hundred  examinations  a 
month. 

The  plaintiff's  attorney  rose  casually  to 
cross-examine  the  sole  heir. 

"You  testified  on  direct  examination 
that  you  were  present  when  your  uncle 
wrote  his  will.'" 

"Yes  sir." 

"This  was  on  October  6,  1940?" 

"Yes  sir." 

"I  believe  you  said,  Mr.  Johnson,  that 
your  uncle  pushed  his  wheelchair  to  a 
desk,  picked  up  a  pen,  and  used  that  pen 
for  the  purpose.  (Exhibiting  document  to 
witness.)  Tell  mc,  if  you  will,  whether 
this  was  a  fountain  pen,  or  a  ball  point 
pen." 

(Examining  document)  "A  ball  point 
pen." 

"You're  sure? ' 

"Absolutely.  A  ball  point  pen  that 
wrote  green.  That's  what  he  used." 

"Very  interesting.  Then  on  October  6, 
1940,  you  saw  your  uncle  write  this  docu- 
ment with  a  green  ball  point  pen.  But  are 
you  aware,  Mr.  Johnson,  that  ball  point 
pens  were  not  available  in  this  country 
until  1945?" 

There  was  no  response  from  Mr.  John- 
son. 

"And  now,  Mr.  Johnson,  will  you  kind- 
ly explain  to  the  court  how  you  managed 


to  see  your  uncle  write  his  will  with  an 
instrument  that  wasn't  invented  until  sev- 
eral years  later?  " 

Well-Founded  Suspicions 

There's  a  comfortable,  but  somewhat 
rebuttable  presumption,  that  everyone  is 
honest.  As  lawyers  know,  people  some- 
times tinker  with  the  truth.  And  to  a  lesser 
extent,  they'll  sometimes  tinker  with  docu- 
ments. 

Most  wills,  deeds,  leases,  partnership 
agreements,  sales  contracts,  stock  certifi- 
cates, notes  and  sales  receipts  are  genuine. 
But  many  are  forged,  altered,  or  substi- 
tuted, declares  Marshall  Houts,  so  that 
they  no  longer  express  the  intention  of  the 
parties.  "If  there  is  the  slightest  question 
about  the  authenticity  of  the  document,  it 
should  be  submitted  immediately  to  a 
competent  examiner,"  he  says.  "This  saves 
the  expense  and  embarrassment  of  having 
a  case  blow  high  and  wide  in  open  court." 

This  is  sound  advice  and  there's  a  re- 
cent case  in  point.  It  came  up  after  an  ad- 
verse decision.  Mulling  over  the  evidence 
in  a  "post  mortem"  mood,  the  attorney 
became  suspicious  of  a  Power  of  Attorney 
among  the  exhibits. 

He  called  in  a  questioned  documents 
examiner.  'Well,  the  Power  of  Attorney 
was  genuine,  all  right.  But  the  expert 
found  that  two  checks  for  sizable  amounts 
had  been  altered,  so  that  they  appeared 
to  be  loans. 

Unfortunately,  the  court  refused  to  re- 
open the  case.  No  one  had  questioned  the 
documents  before  or  during  the  trial. 
Afterwards  w.is  too  late.  And  the  omission 
cost  the  client  over  $10,000. 
Clients  Lie,  Too 

In  a  malpractice  suit,  the  medical  de- 
fendant testified  from  notes,  purportedly 
written  on  the  dates  he  treated  the  patient. 
His  attorney  was  extremely  embarrassed 
when  it  was  pointed  out  that  the  hospital 
forms  weren't  printed  until  several  months 
later. 


Most  attorneys  are  quite  adept  at  ap- 
praising the  character  of  witnesses;  rela- 
tively few  take  any  precautions  to  appraise 
the  character  of  important  documents.  Stu- 
dents of  the  subject  are  convinced  that 
many  forged  or  altered  instruments  have 
passed  as  genuine,  merely  because  no  one 
thought  to  question  them. 

Fine  Art  of  Forgery 

There  are  a  few  old-time,  dedicated 
forgers  who  really  know  their  business. 
But  they  operate  almost  exclusively  as 
"paper-hangers"  in  the  field  of  phony 
checks.  They're  police  cases  you'll  seldom 
meet  up  with   in  average   law  practice. 

It's  in  matters  of  wills  and  estates  that 
you'll  encounter  the  biggest  bulk  of  for- 
geries —  mostly  by  amateurs  —  though 
anonymous  letters,  personal  injury,  and 
patents  come  in  for  attention  too. 

Beware,  beware  the  will  that  is  "found" 
under  the  rug  several  months  after  the 
testator  died!  Or,  for  that  matter,  in  the 
attic  trunk,  the  antique  desk,  or  inside  a 
picture  frame.  Particularly  if  the  heirs  live 
in  foreign  lands,  and  may  be  unaware  of 
their  legacy.  Such  a  situation  can  be  quite 
tempting  to  avaricious  relatives  or  close 
friends. 

And  don't  be  deceived  by  authentic- 
looking  witness -signatures.  Most  bogus 
wills  are  holographic.  But  people  can  be 
persuaded  to  sign  out  of  the  testator's 
presence. 

One  favorite  trick  is  for  the  forger  to 
take  a  signed  flyleaf  from  a  book,  and 
write  a  will  above  the  signature. 

And  if  you  think  there  may  be  any 
question  about  a  will's  authenticity,  it's 
good  practice  to  get  it  photographed  im- 
mediately by  a  qualified  document  exam- 
iner. One  enterprising  heir  altered  a  will 
while  it  was  in  the  possession  of  the  county 
clerk.  So  don't  take  a  chance  on  changes 
occurring  between  the  time  of  writing  and 
the  time  of  probate.

HELPFUL  QUESTIONS  FOR  EXAMINATIONS 

Herein  is  contained  another  of  a  series  of  questions  and  answers  pertinent  to  Police  training  and  helpful  in  promotional 
examinations.  These  questions  and  answers  are  supplied  to  the  Journal,  as  a  service  to  law  enforcement  officers  through- 
out the  state,  by  E.  D.  Kerkhoven,  director  of  the  Peace  OflScer  Training  Service  in  Oakland.  The  questions  are  selected  to 
test  the  reader's  knowledge  of  what  action  to  take  in  certain  situations  resulting  from  criminal  acts.  Each  question  has  a 
number  of  suggested  answers,  labeled  1,  2,  3,  etc.  You  decide  which  is  the  best  answer  to  the  question  asked  and  then  en- 
circle the  number.  'When  you  have  completed  the  test,  compare  your  answers  with  the  KEY  on  page  37. 


1.  The  important  rule  of  Dactyloscopy 
is: — (1)  that  no  two  fingerprints  are  iden- 
tical. (2)  that  prints  must  be  rolled  for 
classification  purposes.  (3)  that  latent 
prints  must  be  photographed  before  being 
lifted.  (4)  that  latent  prints  may  be  lifted 
and  not  always  photographed. 

2.  'Which  one  of  the  following  is  least 
likely  to  be  a  motive  for  the  commission 
of  a  crime.' — (1)  gain.  (2)  selfishness. 
(3)  revenge.  (4)  anger.  (5)  sex. 

3.  One  of  the  following  terms  applies 
to  fingerprint  identification: — (1)  inden- 
tations. (2)  lands.  (3)  ridges.  (4) 
grooves.  (5)  curves. 

4.  It  has  been  a  long  standing  rule  in 
the  science  of  fingerprinting  that  a  mini- 
mum of  twelve  identical  and  characteristic 
details  must  be  found.  "Which  one  of  the 
statements  below  is  incorrect? — (1)  one 
should  not  adhere  too  closely  to  this  rule. 

(2)  this  rule  must  be  closely  adhered  to. 

(3)  the  demand  for  twelve  similar  details 
is  the  result  of  the  opinion  of  scientists  of 
bygone  years.  (4)  the  recent  scientists 
working  in  the  field  of  dactyloscopy  share 
the  opinion  that  the  number  of  character- 
istic points  which  can  be  noted  at  the  edge 
of  an  enlargement  is  a  matter  of  little  im- 
portance. 

5.  Morphine  and  opium  poisoning 
would  be  indicated  if  the  victim  suffered: 
— (1)  quick  death  without  special  symp- 
toms. (2)  bluish-green  vomitus.  (3)  colic 
and  pronounced  diarrhea.  (4)  drowsiness. 

6.  An  oustiti  is: — (1)  an  instrument 
used  to  commit  miscarriage  or  criminal 
abortion.  (2)  a  silencer  for  a  firearm.  (3) 
a  listening  device  made  of  fine  carbon. 

(4)  a  pair  of  thin  tongs,  rifled  to  prevent 
sliding,  used  to  grasp  a  key  and  turn  it  in 
a  lock.

DANGEROUS  AGE 

SACRAMENTO— Of  all  drivers  in- 
volved in  traffic  accidents  in  California, 
the  greatest  number  are  between  the  ages 
of  2*)  and  34  according  to  records  kept  by 
the  California  Highway  Patrol. 

"Each  year  about  one- fourth  of  all  the 
drivers  involved  in  traffic  accidents  in  this 
State  are  between  25  and  34  years  of  age," 
declared  Patrol  Commissioner  B.  R.  Cald- 
well. "The  15  to  24  year  age  group  run  a 
close  second  with  just  under  lA'^/c  of  the 
total  drivers  involved. 

"Approximately  the  same  ratio  holds 
true  in  analyzing  the  drivers  in  fatal  ac- 
cidents," Caldwell  stated.  "The  25  to  34 
year  age  group  made  up  26%  of  the 
total  drivers  involved  in  fatal  accidents 
while  the  15  to  24  year  age  group  made 
up  24%  of  the  total  involved. 

"A  composite  of  the  records  indicates 
that  a  man  between  the  ages  of  25  and  34 
driving  too  fast  for  conditions  or  violating 
a  right-of  way  is  most  apt  to  become  in- 
volved in  a  fatal  or  injury  traffic  accident 
between  4  and  5  p.m.  on  a  city  street,"  he 
continued.  "The  man  will  be  driving  a 
passenger  car  on  a  Saturday  or  Sunday  in 
dear  weather  on  dry  pavement. 

"He  will  have  at  least  11  years  driving 
experience  and  be  driving  in  an  area  not 
controlled  by  signs  or  signals,"  he  said. 
"The  only  element  in  this  picture  actually 
creating  the  accident  hazard  is  the  viola- 
tion of  the  traffic  law;  without  it,  he  prob- 
ably would  not  have  been  involved."

BURGLARY  PRECAUTIONS! 


With  summer  vacation  season  upon  us, 
the  Journal  feels  the  following  precau- 
tions against  burglary,  recommended  by  all 
police  departments,  should  be  published  to 
help  officers  prevent  California's  shocking 
total  of  home  burglary.  They  are: 

1.  DO  arrange  for  a  lamp  or  two  to  be 
turned  on  and  off  regularly  each  evening. 
This  makes  the  home  "lived-in"  and  is  an 
excellent  protective  measure.  A  simple 
and  sure  method  is  through  use  of  an  au- 
tomatic timer. 

2.  DO  cancel  all  deliveries  including 
milk,  newspapers,  etc.  Have  the  postoffice 
or  a  neighbor  hold  your  mail  until  you 
return. 

3.  DO  close  and  lock  all  windows  and 
doors,  including  basement,  porch  and 
garage.  Use  well-made  secure  locks  on  all 
outside  doors.  Inferior,  easily  opened  locks 
do  not  provide  much  protection. 

4.  DO  have  your  lawn  mowed  and  side- 
walk swept  by  a  neighbor  at  least  once  a 
week. 

5.  DO  tell  one  neighbor  you  are  leav- 
ing. Have  them  check  your  house  periodi- 
cally and  notify  the  police  if  they  see  any- 
one prowling  around. 

6.  DO  notify  your  local  police  officials 
as  to  the  date  you  are  leaving  and  when 
you  will  return.

7.  DON'T  close  blinds  or  draw  shades; 
leave  them  as  you  normally  do  when 
you're  home. 

8.  DON'T  leave  valuables  lying  around 
the  house.  Place  them  in  a  safety  deposit 
box. 

9.  DON'T  rell  friends,  neighbors,  or 
work  associates  of  the  valuable  possessions 
you  have  around  the  house. 

10.  DON'T  advertise  your  departure 
with  an  item  in  the  paper,  and  don't  broad- 
cast the  news  to  your  whole  neighborhood.

DRIVE  DEFENSIVELY 

SACRAMENTO— Defensive  driving  is 
necessary  to  avoid  traffic  accident  trouble 
in  today's  traffic  says  the  California  High- 
way Patrol. 

"The  term  'defensive  driving'  is  applied 
to  a  recognized  method  of  avoiding  traffic 
accidents  through  certain  developed  abili- 
ties," stated  Patrol  Commissioner  B.  R. 
Caldwell.  "These  abilities  include  habitual 
recognition  of  potential  accident  situations 
and  the  know-how  to  avoid  becoming  in- 
volved in  an  accident  in  such  situations. 

"An  example  of  defensive  driving  can 
be  drawn  from  an  actual  situation  happen- 
ing frequently  on  our  rural  highways," 
Caldwell  said.  "A  driver  traveling  at  a 
normal  speed  on  a  through  highway  is  ap- 
proaching an  intersecting  side  road  and 
notices  another  vehicle  approaching  on 
the  side  road. 

"Although  the  intersection  is  protected 
by  a  stop  sign  requiring  the  driver  on  the 
side  road  to  stop  before  entering  the 
through   highway,   the  defensive  drixing 
maneuver  by  the  driver  on  the  through  < 
highway  is  to  slow  down  and  be  prepared 
to   take   appropriate   action   if  the  other 
driver  does  not  stop,"  he  explained. 
"There  are  many  other  situations  calling  ; 
for    preparedness    and    ability    to    avoid  ! 
trouble. 

"Defensive  driving  prevents  accidents 
and  is  a  quality  every  driver  should  de- 
velop," he  concluded.  "Remember  too,  a 
defensive  driver  naturally  obeys  traffic 
regulations  as  a  primary  element  in  his 
defense  against  accidents."

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS'  JOURNAL 


Pagt  7 


AN  OUTSTANDING  OFFICER 

The  Journal  is  delighted  to  print  the  following  story  of  an  outstanding  San  Francisco  policeman.  It  was  written  by  a 
fellow  officer  who  prefers  to  remain  anoynious.  He  told  your  editor  that  the  story  might  have  been  written  by  any  of  the 
men  who  served  with  the  late  Frank  Swall. 


"It  you're  driving  the  Two-Car,  I'm 
your  relief,"  said  the  fair-tomplcxioned 
patrolman  crossing  the  station  floor  to- 
wards me. 

I  glanced  at  the  station  clock  and  then 
back  to  the  neat  offiter  in  his  early  thirties. 
"Arc  you  kidding?  "  I  remarked.  "You're 
nearly  an  hour  too  soon." 

"No,  it's  otficial,"  he  smiled.  "I  like  to 
come  in  early  to  make  up  the  hot-sheet  and 
check  the  reports  and  teletypes.  " 

That  was  my  first  meeting  with  Patrol- 
man Frank  Swall  at  San  Francisco's  Po- 
trero  Station  one  spring  night  about  six 
years  ago. 

As  I  closed  out  my  traffic  citations  I 
could  not  help  but  notice  how  thoroughly 
the  officer  scrutinized  the  offense  reports 
and  recorded  information  in  his  notebook. 
I  wondered  if  his  exactness  and  attention 
to  detail  carried  over  to  his  patrol  work. 
That  question  was  well  answered  in  the 
next  few  weeks. 

Prisoners  Escape 

Two  naval  prisoners  disarmed  their  US 
Marine  guard  of  his  carbine  early  one 
afternoon  and  effected  an  escape  from  the 
Treasure  Island  brig  in  the  middle  of  San 
Francisco  Bay.  The  escapees  waylaid  a 
hapless  motorist  and  drove  over  the  Bay 
Bridge  towards  San  Francisco  with  him  as 
their  hostage.  Once  in  the  city,  they  re- 
leased their  prisoner  who  immediately  no- 
tified the  police. 

A  "signal  666"  was  ordered  by  police 
communications.  This  call  sent  scores  of 
police  vehicles  to  previously  designated 
key  points  within  the  cit)'  and  its  perim- 
eter to  set-up  roadblocks  in  an  effort  to 
cut  off  the  armed  men.  Officer  Swall,  hav- 
ing just  reported   for  duty,  sped  to  one

of  the  city's  exits,  Bayshore  Highway  and 
the  County  Line.  He  parked  his  radio  car 
and  waited  for  further  instructions. 

Suddenly  the  fugitive  sedan  sped  past. 
In  an  instant  the  officer  was  in  pursuit. 
The  occupants  of  the  fleeing  car  were 
c|uick  to  notice  the  police  cruiser  rapidly 
closing  on  them.  The  felons  took  to  the 
dirt  shoulder  and  started  passing  the  heavy 
traffic  on  the  inside.  The  police  car  fol- 
lowed right  in  line.  However,  the  radio 
car  could  not  keep  up  with  the  heavy  get- 
away car.  Patrolman  Swall  had  his  hands 
full.  He  freed  his  right  hand  momentarily 
from  the  wheel  and  unholstered  his  serv- 
ice revolver.  He  jammed  it  into  the  seat 
beside  him.  The  officer  guided  the  prowl 
car  over  the  crowded  highway  with  one 
hand  and  vainly  tried  to  radio  in  his  posi- 
tion with  the  other. 

At  the  Hall  of  Justice,  police  radio  dis- 
patchers were  frantically  relaying  the  pur- 
suit information  to  San  Mateo  County  law 
agencies. 

Chase  Continues 

The  chase  continued  deep  into  the  ad- 
joining county.  Once  the  officer  nearly 
lost  sight  of  the  wanted  auto  but  finally, 
in  a  clear  stretch  of  road,  the  pursuing  po- 
lice car  closed  the  distance  to  the  escaping 
sedan.  At  this  point  both  autos  passed  and 
outdistanced  another  police  car  which  was 
racing  in  the  same  direction  to  set  up  a

roadblock  in  anticipation  of  their  arrival. 

Oflicer  Swall  closed  within  a  few  feet  of 
the  suspects.  One  of  the  escapees  jumped 
into  the  back  seat  of  their  auto  and  trained 
a  carbine  through  the  back  window  at  the 
patrolman.  The  policeman,  expecting  a 
deadly  spray  of  lead  to  crash  through  his 
windshield  at  any  moment,  grabbed  his 
revolver  and  aimed  it  at  the  gunman 
ahead.  He  intended  to  blast  through  the 
windshield  if  necessary.  For  a  long  mo- 
ment both  men  stared  at  each  other.  Then 
the  policeman  decided  to  push  his  luck 
further.  He  swung  a  hard  left  and  man- 
aged a  five-foot  gain  on  the  fugitive  car 
and  then  prepared  to  force  it  off  the  road- 
way. 

Suddenly,  as  quickly  as  the  chase 
started,  it  ended.  The  felons  skidded  the 
stolen  sedan  to  the  side  of  the  roadway 
and  surrendered  to  the  tenacious  officer. 

Hours  later,  and  still  visibly  shaken  by 
the  long  chase,  the  recaptured  prisoners 
cursed  the  fact  that  they  were  able  to 
dodge  several  roadblocks  within  the  city 
but  were  spotted  at  the  last  checkpoint.

Cited  For  Service 
For  this  outstanding  capture,  Patrolman 
Swall  was  cited  for  meritorious  service. 
Since  his  record  at  Potrero  Station  was  so 
high  for  crime  arrests,  he  was  promoted  to 
the  plain-clothes  Crime  Prevention  Detail. 
The  Crime  Prevention  Detail,  dubbed 
"The  Flying  Squad  "  by  other  members  of 
the  department,  is  a  training  ground  for 
potential  police  inspectors.  Officer  Swall 
excelled  in  this  assignment  too.  Now, 
working  directly  out  of  the  Hall  of  Justice^ 
the  officer  had  access  to  more  information 
on  criminal  occurrences.  He  cruised  the 
trouble  spots  of  the  city  nightly  in  search 
of  numerous  wanted  criminals  whose 
photos  he  carried  with  him  at  all  times. 
The  conscientious  officer's  arrest  record 
soared. 

There  was  no  secret  to  his  success.  His 
routine  was  the  same  as  he  had  practiced 
from  the  day  he  had  entered  the  depart- 
ment. He  was  always  on  the  job  early.  He 
read  every  report  and  crime  data  that 
crossed  his  path.  When  he  hit  the  street 
he  was  ready  and  well-informed.  "Never 
go  out  on  the  street  blind.  Have  a  project; 
have  someone  to  look  for  or  somthing  to 
check,"  he  told  me  over  coffee  one  night. 
Many  times  the  officer  recovered  stolen 
autos  or  made  arrests  while  off  duty. 

Suspects  stopped  for  routine  checking 
never  realized  how  much  they  inadvert- 
ently revealed  to  the  officer  through  ap- 
parently innocuous  questioning.  A  glance 
at  his  service  record  reveals  that  he  has 
taken  part  in  the  captures  of  scores  of 
armed  holdup  men,  burglars,  car  thieves, 
a  badly  wanted  bail  jumper  from  Hawaii, 
an  escaped  prison  felon,  led  the  FBI  to  the 
capture  of  one  of  the  top  ten  wanted  men 
in  the  country,  and  an  armed  suspect  want- 
ed for  attempted  murder,  robbery,  auto 
theft,  and  kidnapping.  For  the  last  arrest 
he  received  another  meritorious  service 
award.  His  folder  is  full  of  Captain's 
Commendations  for  numerous  arrests  too 
numerous  to  mention. 

Tragic  End 
Patrolman  Swall's  police  career  ended 
in  the  line  of  routine  duty.  The  officer

was  on  foot  in  pursuit  of  an  auto  booster 
when  he  suddenly  tripped  and  fell  hard 
onto  the  pavement.  His  star,  which  he  tar- 
ried in  his  breast  pocket,  ground  deeply 
into  his  chest.  The  officer  disregarded  the 
sharp  pain  in  his  chest  and,  with  the  aid 
of  his  partner,  again  took  up  the  chase  and 
captured  the  thief.  The  officer  continued 
to  work  for  the  next  several  days  despite 
a  stabbing  chest  pain.  He  succumbed  to  .i 
heart  failure  a  few  days  later. 

At  his  funeral  I  heard  one  police  offi- 
cial remark,  "It's  a  pity  that  he  never  got 
the  gold  star  of  an  inspector.  He  was  cer- 
tainly on  his  way." 

Knowing  Frank  Swall  .is  intimately  as  I 
did,  I  know  that  the  rank  of  Inspector 
would  only  have  meant  a  well-earned  pay 
raise  for  this  devoted  officer.  As  for  the 
caliber  of  policework,  it  wouldn't  have 
helped  a  bit — he  was  as  good  as  the  best 
already. 

Speeding  was  blamed  for  13,200  deaths 
on  U.  S.  highways  in  19'i7.

TRAFFIC  LAWS  BOOK 


Publication  of  a  442-page  book  on  the 
legal  aspects  of  traffic  law  enforcement 
titled  Know  the  Law  has  been  announced 
by  the  Traffic  Institute  of  Northwestern 
University,  Evanston,  111. 

The  new  volume  is  a  collection  of 
selected  articles  which  have  appeared  in 
the  "Know  the  Law"  section  of  the  Traffic 
Digest  &  Review,  monthly  magazine  of  the 
Institute. 

Co-authors  of  most  of  the  articles  are 
two  members  of  the  Institute's  legal  staff, 
Robert  L.  Donigan,  general  counsel,  and 
Edward  C.  Fisher,  associate  counsel.  Other 
contributors  include  law  professols, 
judges,  and  bar  association  officials. 

Regarded  for  many  years  as  a  valuable 
source  of  legal  information  concerning  all 
phases  of  traffic  law  enforcement  and  the 
administration  of  justice  in  traffic  cases, 
the  "Know  the  Law"  articles  appeared 
first  in  the  Traffic  Review  and  the  Traffiic 
Digest,  predecessors  of  the  Traffic  Digest 
&  Review. 

Reference  Volume 

Publication  of  selected  articles  under 
one  cover  was  undertaken  by  the  Traffic 
Institute  in  the  belief  that  making  the  ma- 
terial available  in  permanent  form  would 
provide  a  much  needed  reference  volume 
for  judges,  prosecutors,  other  lawyers,  and 
law  enforcement  officials. 

Know  the  Law  contains  101  articles 
classified  under  eight  major  parts.  These 
are  Traffic  Law,  Rules  of  Evidence,  Law 
of  Arrest,  Criminal  Law  and  Procedure, 
Constitutional  Law,  Traffic  Courts  and  Jus-

Significant  statutory  law,  court  cases, 
and  court  decisions  relating  to  the  appre- 
hension, prosecution,  and  adjudication  of 
traffic  violators  are  discussed  by  the  au- 
thors. 

Some  of  the  police  and  prosecutor  ac- 
tivities affected  by  these  court  decisions  are 
obtaining  evidence,  making  arrests — with 
and  without  warrants,  search  and  seizure, 
charging  violations,  arraignments,  and 
presenting  testimony. 

Bound  in  hard  cloth  cover  with  gold 
stamping.  Know  the  Law  is  offered  by  the

WRITING  IDENTIFIES  CULPRIT 

The  interesting  and  controversial  premise  that  handwriting  tells  all  about  an  individual  is  explored  in  the  following  article  written 
by  Dr.  K.  K.  Golson  of  Colton,  Calif.,  the  1958  President  of  the  "Handwriting  Institute"  and  prominent  scriptologist.  Write  and 
let  the  editor  know  your  reaction  to  handwriting  analysis. 

A  robbery  had  taken  place  in  an  invest- 
ment firm's  office.  During  the  investiga- 
tion by  the  police,  the  fingerprint  man  had 
picked  up  a  folded  piece  of  paper  with  a 
note  inscribed  on  it. 

Upon  interrogation  of  the  manager  of 
the  office  ;is  well  as  the  other  employees, 
it  was  determined  that  none  of  them  had 
written  the  note  and  had  no  knowledge  of 
how  it  happened  to  be  at  the  scene  of  the 
robbery.  The  janitor  was  also  questioned 
and  it  was  determined  that  the  note  was 
not  on  the  floor  when  he  had  cleaned  the 
office  at  approximately  1 1 :30  the  previous 
evening. 

After  further  investigation  and  inter- 
rogation it  was  determined  that  the  note 
must  have  been  dropped  by  the  one,  or 
more  persons,  who  had  committed  the 
crime. 

After  being  dusted  and  checked  for 
finger  prints  and  other  identifying  marks, 
a  Scriptologist,  or  Handwriting  Analyst, 
was  called  in  to  study  the  structures  which 
are  made  from  the  different  strokes.  These 
structures  are  more  commonly  known  as 
letters  or  words. 

Scriptologist  Reports 

After  the  Scriptologist  had  studied  the 
symbols  of  traits  for  sometime,  he  sub- 
mitted the  following  short  report  on  the 
writing  specimen; 

The  subject  is  a  friendly  and  very  talka- 
tive individual,  who  possesses  more  than 
an  ordinary  education.  He  has  a  strong 
tendency  towards  being  very  immaculate  in 
his  personal  appearance  as  he  leans  to- 
wards good  grooming.  His  clothes  will  be 
more  on  the  flashy  but  fushionable  side  for 
he  will  choose  the  darker  and  heavier 
shades  of  material. 

The  flash  will  be  in  the  cut  or  style  of 
the  suit  and  he  would  most  probably  use  a

flower  on  the  lapel.  His  hat  and  shoes 
would  add  "class"  to  the  rest  of  his  wear- 
ing apparel.  He  wants  to  be  different,  an 
individualist,  and  thus  attract  attention  to 
himself  as  being  a  well  groomed  and  re- 
spected citizen. 

Subject  Limps 

The  subject  will  walk  with  a  slight  limp 
or  with  restricted  movement.  This  restric- 
tion or  limp  will  be  on  the  right  side  and 
the  subject  has  a  defect  in  his  hearing  on 
the  right  side. 

The  subject  is  blessed  with  a  goodly 
share  of  vanity  and  Ego  and  as  stated  be- 
fore, is  very  talkative. 

When  subject  is  arrested  and  interro- 
gated he  will  probably  sing  long  and  loud

for  he  has  great  pride  in  his  ability  and 
accomplishments  and  will  brag  about  what 
he  has  done  and  how  he  did  it. 

The  subject  will  visit  the  best  hotels  and 
the  best  eating  places,  particularly  those 
places  that  offer  good  steaks  and  potatoes, 
etc.,  for  his  tastes  run  more  to  solid  foods, 
well  seasoned  and  well  prepared.  The  sub-

ject  does  not  care  too  much  for  highly 
seasoned  or  rich  foods  and  he  cares  little 
for  meals  made  up  of  salads  or  light  foods. 

The  subject  is  most  likely  unmarried  for 
he  is  very  selective  and  clannish. 

The  subject  will  frequent  the  better 
class  places  where  there  will  be  mixed 
crowds  of  the  two  sexes.  The  subject  has 
a  healthy  sex  driv^,  which  is  controlled, 
and  he  is  of  a  flirtatious  nature  with  a 
strong  accjuisitive  trait  or  desire  to  acquire 
which  is  enhanced  by  an  overabundance 
of  Ego. 

Cultivated  Individual 

The  subject  has  a  strong  cultural  trait 
and  is  probably  very  well  read  and  -can 
talk  on  many  different  subjects,  as  well  as 
quote  from  various  authors.  His  type 
would  be  at  home  in  the  best  of  society 
for  his  veneer  would  be  acceptable  in  any 
social  circle,  but  this  is  a  cover  for  his 
real  nature. 

Suggest  that  you  look  for  a  man  with 
the  following  modus  operandi: 

1.  A  flashy  but  immaculate  dresser  but 
one  whose  suits  will  be  of  the  darker 
shades  of  color. 

2.  A  person  who  will  often  wear  a 
flower  in  his  button-hole  and  a  homburg 
or  other  type  of  dress  hat. 

3.  A  man  who  frequents  restaurants  or 
hotels  that  make  a  specialty  of  steaks  and 
other  good  solid  foods. 

4.  A  person  who  will  appear  in  better 
places  where  mixed  crowds  will  be  found. 

5.  A  person  with  a  smooth  line  and  a 
flirtatious  nature,  both  with  words  and 
actions  and  who  attracts  attention  to  him- 
self by  his  individualism,  but  one  who  is 
cautious. 

6.  A  person  who  has  a  slight  limp  or 
restriction  of  movement  in  the  right  hip 
or  leg. 

7.  A  person  with  a  cultural  background, 
but  one  who  has  a  hearing  defect  in  the 
right  ear, 

8.  A  person  who  usually  travels  alone 
and  selects  his  companion  after  he  arrives 
for  the  evening.  A  person  who  has  very 
few,  if  any,  close  friends.

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS'  JOURNAL  April-May,  1938 

NEW  GUN  RANGE  OPEN 


The  official  opening  of  the  Presidio 
Gun  Club's  new  rifle  and  pistol  range  atop 
the  hill  at  Fort  Scott  in  April  was  a  gala 
affair  with  the  many  officers  asplendor  in 
the  new  blue  army  uniforms  and  the 
ladies — well,  all  I  say  is  "God  love  'em 
all !"  One  thing  I  cannot  help  but  mention 
and  that  is  it  was  one  wet  night  and  rain- 
ing like  the  very  dickens  but  as  the  park- 
ing lot  is  just  outside  the  door  no  one  was 
really  put  to  much  moist  discomfiture.  The 
army  may  well  be  proud  of  their  new 
range. 

Colonel  Rau,  executive  officer  of  the 
Presidio,  officially  opened  the  range  before 
a  group  of  enthusiastic  people  gathered 
there  to  witness  the  event.  The  colonel 
made  just  a  few  introductions  of  the  per- 
sonnel connected  with  the  range  and  those 
who  worked  so  hard  to  complete  the  proj- 
ect, a  very  short  informative  message  wel- 
come with  a  background  of  the  range  was 
offered  by  the  colonel  then  to  the  proced- 
ure of  cutting  the  red  ribbon  and  firing  of 
the  first  shot.  After  the  dedication  refresh- 
ments were  served  in  the  lounge.  I  cer- 
tainly was  impressed  with  the  range  and 
hope  their  outdoor  range  will  be  as  good 
— my  bet  is  that  it  surely  will  be. 

Outstanding  Accommodations 
I  gave  the  range  a  going  over  from  stem 
to  stern  (oh,  oh,  that  sounds  like  a  nauti- 
cal term)  and  let  me  say  it  is  as  nice  a 
range  as  you  will  see  any  place  in  the 
country. 

Taking  you  on  a  quick  tour  we  will 
start  with  the  lounge.  My  one  objection  to 
the  lounge  is  that  its  too  darn  comfortable

of  the  room  are  two  trojjhy  cases,  both  full 
of  trophies,  large  bulletin  boards  and  the 
usual  Swap  &  For  Sale  space.  Overlooking 
the  range  are  three  good-sized,  sound-

proceedings  without  venturing  out  onto 
the  range  proper.  There  is,  in  the  making, 
a  large  open  fire-place,  but  at  this  time  it 
is  covered  by  a  section  of  knotty  pine  and 
when  the  time  is  ripe  for  the  fireplace  all 
it  takes  is  the  removal  of  a  few  boards  and 
voila ! ! — there's  your  fireplace !

Club  and  managed  to  elicit  the  following 
information,  The  club  was  started  in  1935 
with  the  usual  ups  and  downs  of  any  club 
but  now  it's  in  the  "ups"  with  very  little 
chance  of  dropping  into  the  "downs.  "  It 
is  for  both  military  personnel  and  civilians 
with  a  ratio  of  about  30^{-  of  the  member- 
ship being  civilians. 

Dues  arc  $8  a  year  for  civilians  and  S5 
a  year  for  the  military  and  the  range  will 
be  used  mostly  for  training  and  practice  of 
the  military  personnel.  On  each  practice 
night  the  shooters  will  be  furnished  free 
a  box  of  .22  shells,  which  to  my  way  of 
calculating  is  worth  much  more  than  the 
dues.  At  present  there  are  about  60  mem- 
bers with  an  anticipated  membership  of 
150.  The  club  is  affiliated  with  the  Na- 
tional Rifle  Association  and  is  enrolled 
with  the  Director  of  Civilian  Marksman- 
ship. They  hope  to  start  matches  with  a 
quarterly  tournament  and  finally  swing 
into  monthly  matches  for  all  shooters 
whether  club  members  or  not. 

In  addition  to  the  above  the  Club  has 
a  terrific  junior  program  for  boys  and  girls 
in  the  age  bracket  of  1 1  years  thru  16  years 
with  the  present  enrollment  of  150  junior 
shooters  and  if  you  think  that  is  not  a 
handful  you're  just  plain  nuts.  There  are 
two  master  sergeants,  Master  Sgt.  'Vechich 
and  Master  Sgt.  Sheridan,  who  take  care 
of  the  junior  program  and  are  doing  a 
masterful  job  and  doing  it  well,  both  men 
being  very  popular  with  the  youngsters. 
The  course  takes  in  the  proper  method  of 
handling  and  firing  guns  and  a  compre- 
hensive course  in  safety  first. 

The  range  itself  contains  a  small  snack 
bar,  just  as  you  enter  the  range,  where 
candy  and  soft  drinks  may  be  purchased 
as  well  as  various  shooting  items,  a  few 
feet  further  on  is  the  concrete  covered 
floor  up  to  the  firing  line,  from  there  on 
out  to  the  target  frames  it  is  hard  packed 
red  rock.  The  metal  backstop  is  %  inch 
thick  and  incidentally,  weighs  III/2  tons. 
The  targets  are  stationary  but  plans  are  in 
the  offing  to  have  them  made  movable 
for  time  and  rapid-fire  strings.

Neon  Lights  Protected 
The  range  is  a  high  ceiling  affair  with 
^-ents  on  top  of  the  roof  to  carry  off  the 
dust  and  smoke  and  the  neon  hghts  placed 
high  on  the  ceiling  are  well  protected  by 
heavy  sheeting  to  deflect  any  stray  bullets 
coming  their  way.  There  are  plenty  of 
benches  to  rest  upon  between  relays  and 
for  the  belly-shooters  they  have  nice,  soft, 
restful,  thick  mattresses.  (Maybe  it  might 
be  in  order  to  suggest  they  detail  a  couple 
of  men  to  keep  the  small  bore  shooters 
from  going  to  sleep.) 

It  is  a  splendid  range  and  should  be 
well  patronized  after  they  get  their  pro- 
gram into  full  swing  so  if  you  are  inter- 
ested in  becoming  a  member  of  the  club 
I  might  suggest  you  call  Captain  Kallum 
and  secure  an  application  blank. 

I'm  anxious  to  see  it  in  full  swing — 
good  luck!

CITATIONS  INCREASE 


SACRAMENTO  —  California  drivers 
must  exercise  more  respect  for  traffic  laws 
if  they  are  to  avoid  becoming  a  traffic  sta- 
tistic warns  the  California  Highway  Pa- 
trol. 

"The  growing  number  of  citations  is- 
sued by  the  California  Highway  Patrol 
is  some  evidence  of  the  apparent  lack  of 
respect  for  traffic  rules  and  regulations," 
declared  Patrol  Commissioner  B.  R.  Cald- 
well. "During  1957  the  Patrol  issued  909,- 
353  citations,  307,100  of  which  were  for 
speed  violations.  The  total  also  included 
12,904  arrests  for  violations  of  the  laws 
referring  to  driving  while  under  the  in- 
fluence of  alcohol. 

"An  analysis  of  88,886  traffic  accidents 
occurring  during  1957  in  the  areas  pa- 
trolled by  the  Patrol  reveals  that  82,630 
or  93  per  cent  of  them  were  charged  to 
traffic  violations,"  Caldwell  stated.  "The 
evidence  emphasizes  the  fact  that  violat- 
ing traffic  laws  will  eventually  lead  you 
to  an  accident."

BROADMOOR  POLICE  ALERT 


In  a  small  town  nothing  is  supposed  to 
happen,  yet  only  last  year  the  biggest 
gambling  raid  of  the  season  came  in  Broad- 
moor, California,  when  Chief  of  Police 
Ray  Savage  personally  seized  ^O't  Chinese 
in  his  area  who  were  doing  illegal  betting. 

Chief  Savage  is  also  credited  with  break- 
ing up  a  large  abortion  ring  in  his  com- 
munity. Forty  years  old,  married  and  the 
father  of  one  child,  he  has  been  an  officer 
for  nine  years. 

Savage  has  been  commended  by  other 
departments  and  has  many  excellent  ar- 
rests to  his  credit. 

Charles  Manning,  37,  has  been  on  the 
force  three  and  a  half  years,  and  h.u>  won 
commendation  for  single-handedly  arrest- 
ing a  long-wanted  burglar.  The  story  be- 
gan while  he  was  patrolling  his  district 
early  one  morning  this  year. 
All  Quiet 

Things  were  quiet  as  he  made  his  rounds 
when  suddenly  he  saw  an  unfamiliar  car 
on  the  street. 

Looking  around  for  the  driver,  the  offi- 
cer was  surprised  to  see  a  man  crouched 
behind  some  bushes  near  the  gate  of  a 
home. 

Manning  watched  as  the  suspect  raised 
slowly  up  with  a  knife  in  his  hand  and 
when  he  turned  around  the  officer  saw  a 
mask  on  the  culprit's  face. 

Approaching  the  man  with  his  gun  in 
hand,  the  officer  shouted  "stop  right 
there". 

Suspect  turned  and  seeing  the  lawman 
dropped  his  knife  and  tore  the  mask  from 
his  face. 

"Back  up  toward  me,"  ordered  Man- 
ning. Searching  him  the  officer  found  a 
large  roll  of  tape  and  a  pair  of  gloves. 
Used  Diapers 

Leading  suspect  back  to  the  unfamiliar 
car  he  knew  now  was  the  masked  man's, 
the  officer  found  more  tape  and  several 
diapers  that  the  criminal  had  used  to  tie 
his  victims  up  with.

The  captured  man  had  a  long  record 
as  a  burglar,  car  thief  and  robber. 

He  is  now  a  permanent  resident  of  San 
Quentin  Prison  where  he  had  previously 
spent  over  half  of  his  life  off  and  on. 

Merrill  Baxley,  29,  has  had  only  three 
years  on  the  Broadmoor  Police  Force,  yet 
as  the  juvenile  officer  he  has  personally 
helped  more  youngsters  to  become  useful 
citizens  without  sending  them  to  court 
than  he  has  by  arresting  them. 

The  most  important  challenge  of  his  en- 
tire career  was  that  of  catching  two  juve- 
niles whr  had  been  linked  with  burglaries, 
car  stealing  and  petty  thefts  in  recent 
weeks. 

Baxley's  orders  were  "stop  them  ". 

Through  evidence  found  at  the  scene 
and  oth-.r  information.  Officer  Baxley 
learned  the  identity  of  the  boys  and  took 
them  into  custody. 

Juvenile  Crooks 
Extensive  interrogation  proved  this  pair 
were    responsible    for    a    multitude    of 
crimes  committed  in  this  city.

Further  investigation  pro\cd  the  home 
environment  warranted  that  with  the 
court's  permission,  and  the  personal  as- 
sistance of  lawman  Baxley,  the  boys  be 
allowed  a  second  chance. 

This  was  done. 

The  case  was  successfully  concluded 
when  the  boys  were  taken  off  probation 
and  are  now  star  athletes  and  students  in 
their  respective  schools. 

This  again  proves  that  not  only  has  the 
policeman  got  nerve  and  courage,  but  he 
can  also  be  found  with  an  abundance  of 
understanding  and  humanity  for  those  less 
fortunate  than  he. 

Broadmoor  was  organized  in  1949  with 
only  two  officers,  one  chief  and  3000  resi- 
dents. It  now  has  a  governing  body  of 
three  police  Commissioners  elected  by  the 
voters.

Broadmoor  has  the  only  police  owned

These  include  everything  from  solving

The  Traffic  Institute  of  Northwestern 
University  is  now  prepared  to  answer  in- 
quiries about  police  training  films. 

At  the  annual  conference  of  the  Inter- 
national Association  of  Chiefs  of  Police 
last  fall  in  Honolulu,  the  Traffic  Institute 
was  charged  with  ,the  responsibility  of 
compiling  and  maintaining  information  on 
all  types  of  films  (sound  motion  and 
sound  slide)  produced  by  or  for  police  for 
training  purposes. 

In  announcing  the  film  information 
service,  Ray  Ashworth,  director  of  the 
Traffic  Institute  and  of  the  lACP  Traffic 
Division,  said:  : 

Write  Librarian 

"After  extensive  correspondence  with 
police  agencies  and  following  study  of 
existing  sources  of  films,  we  are  now  ready 
to  answer  inquiries.  Police  departments 
and  others  interested  in  learning  how  and 
where  films  on  police  training  subjects 
may  be  obtained  are  invited  to  write  to

"I  would  like  to  emphasize,  however,

"To  be  processed,  an  inquiry  must  men- 
tion a  particular  title  or  a  specific  subject. 
We  will  not  be  able  to  handle  inquiries

TRAFFIC  TRAINING 

The  Esso  Safety  Foundation  has  an- 
nounced grants  totaling  $17,250  to  sup- 
port a  program  of  short  course  training 
for  police. 

By  means  of  the  funds,  three  two-week 
courses  in  traffic  supervision  will  be  con- 
ducted in  1958  by  the  Traffic  Institute  of 
Northwestern  University,  Evanston,  111., 
on  the  campuses  of  Northeastern  Univer- 
sity, Boston,  Mass.,  the  University  of 
Maryland  (College  Park)  and  the  Uni- 
versity of  Tennessee  (Knoxville). 

The  Traffic  Institute  will  receive  $9,000 
from  Esso  to  conduct  training  in  accident 
investigation  at  Northeastern  University 
and  the  University  of  Tennessee,  and  in 
traffic  law  enforcement  at  the  University 
of  Maryland,  and  the  host  schools  will 
receive  $2,750  each. 

From  the  Esso  funds  made  available  to 
the  regional  training  centers,  grant-in-aid 
awards  will  be  offered  to  selected  police 
departments.

A  NIGHT  OF  FEAR! 


Page  21 


The  story  of  a  night  of  feur  in  the  Oak- 
land Hills  was  sent  to  your  editor  anony- 
mously. IFe  feel  it  is  north  printing,  what 
do  you  think.'' 


We  average  citizens  are  inclined  to  take 
our  policeman  for  granted,  indeed,  some- 
times he  annoys  us  when  we  find  a  citation 
on  our  illegally  parked  car,  or  worse— get 
a  speeding  ta^.  "Damned  Cossacks"  we 
mutter,  always  under  our  breath.  But  in 
every  man's  lite  there  comes  at  least  one 
time  when  he  is  shudderingly  grateful  for 
police  protection,  and  mine  came  in  March 
in  the  Oakland  hills. 

There  really  wasn't  too  much  publicity 
on  "The  Cat  Burglar  "  who  struck  nearly 
30  times  in  the  Broadway  Terrace  section 
of  North  Oakland,  but  the  neighborhood 
knew  about  him  through  the  grapevine  of 
fear. 

No  Ordinary  Thief 

This  was  no  ordinary  thief.  The  spectre 
was  real — a  225-pound  Negro  who  was 
psychopathic.  Attempted  rape  on  both  a 
65-year-old  woman  and  an  11-year-old 
girl.  Threats  of  death.  Flashlight  on  sleep- 
ing householder  and  gruff  demands  of 
money  and  worse. 

While  we  were  uneasy  there  was  noth- 
ing unusual  until  a  Thursday  night  late  in 
March.  We  heard  about  it  first  on  the 
radio  Friday  morning  and  then  in  the 
Oakland  Tribune  on  the  front  page. 

Mr.  Thief  had  robbed  two  houses  a 
block  away  from  mine.  He  had  struck  an 
old  woman  in  the  face  and  attempted  to 
molest  her  and  was  only  defeated  because 
the  indomitable  widow  had  screamed  and 
screamed. 

Oakland  police  had  been  quietly  and 
intensively  patrolling  the  area  and  con- 
verged rapidly.  They  thought  they  had 
"the  Cat"  cornered  in  a  neighborhood 
back  yard,  but  he  vaulted  a  fence  and  dis-

appeared  in  the  dark  and  muddy  fairways 
of  the  Claremont  Golf  Course. 

Despite  a  cordon  of  cars  and  more  than 
40  officers  grimly  searching  the  course,  he 
made  good  his  escape. 

Friday  night  was  my  personal  night  of 
fear.  I  knew  that  ordinary  rules  did  not 
apply  to  this  man.  I  knew  he  was  athletic 
and  strong  and  had  a  crazy  disregard  for 
normal  behavior.  It  stood  to  reason  that 
the  scare  of  the  near  capture  would  keep 
him  away  for  a  few  weeks — but  I  didn't 
believe  it,  and  I  was  right. 

House  Invites  Burglar 

My  house  sits  on  the  side  of  a  hill  with 
almost  a  quarter  of  an  acre  around  it.  Well 
back  from  the  street,  the  house  has  three 
sides  where  a  burglar  could  work  on  win- 
dows or  doors  with  not  a  chance  of  being 
seen  from  the  street. 

Two  other  streets  fan  out  from  the  rear 
of  my  property,  giving  ample  room  for  a 
quick  and  noiseless  escape.  "The  only  house 
near  mine  was  dark  and  vacant,  the  own- 
ers in  Europe. 

The  house  is  two  levels  with  one  bed- 
room downstairs  where  my  six -year -old 
daughter  sleeps.  On  the  top  floor  my  five- 
year-old  son  sleeps  in  one  bedroom  and 
my  wife  and  I  in  the  other. 

First  mo\e  I  made  when  I  got  home 
after  work  was  to  bar  my  castle  as  best  I 
could.  The  girl  was  moved  upstairs.  For- 
tunately, she  had  a  cold  which  gave  us  an 
excuse  to  move  her  without  arousing  her 
fears,  but,  being  a  smart  little  thing,  she 
had  caught  the  aura  of  fear  from  my  wife 
and  me.

Checked  Locks 

My  preparations  may  seem  ludicrous  in 
the  light  of  the  day,  but  at  the  time  were 
very  real  and  seemed  the  right  thing  to  do. 
I  checked  the  locks  on  all  the  doors  and 
windows  and  then  moved  articles  where  I 
thought  a  burglar  would  crash  them  over, 
making  enough  noise  to  arouse  the  house- 
hold. 

There  is  no  lock  on  the  door  leading 
from  the  downstairs  to  the  living  room,  so 
I  sawed  a  2  x  4  to  block  the  door  and 
prevent  its  opening. 

Upstairs  we  checked  door  and  window 
locks,  brought  our  telephone  which  has  a 
long  cord  alongside  the  bed  and  broke  out 
my  little  .25  Colt  automatic,  given  to  me 
years  ago  by  a  San  Francisco  police  officer. 
I  didn't  think  the  little  gun  could  stop  a 
berserk  large  man,  or  even  if  I  could  hit 
anything  with  it,  but  it  was  comforting  to 
have.  I  was  placing  by  main  reliance  on 
the  prowl  cars  that  I  knew  were  covering 
the  area  like  a  tent. 

It  may  amuse  the  psychologists,  but  for 
some  reason  or  other  my  television  fare 
that  night  was  two  half-hour  crime 
drama's,  "The  Lineup"  and  "The  Thin 
Man,"  and  "High  Sierra,"  an  old  movie 
of  gangsterism  and  death.

Agony  Was  Mental 

« 

The  real  agony,  all  self-induced,  from 
the  mind  and  subconscious  I  guess,  came 
when  we  went  to  bed. 

First  thing,  I  cautioned  my  wife  to 
awaken  me  if  she  got  up  with  the  kids. 
I  didn't  want  to  shoot  her.  I  thought  I 
would  have  enough  presence  of  mind  not 
to  shoot  until  I  knew  what  my  target  was, 
but  like  so  many  millions  of  Americans,  I 
have  never  had  to  call  upon  myself  in  a 
situation  like  this  and  I  didn't  know  how 
I  would  react. 

My  dwelling  is  an  old  one  and  creaks 
and  groans  as  it  cools  off.  Rain  added  an 
eerie  touch  and  a  slapping  branch  on  .the 
window  from  our  pine  tree  helped  jartgle 
already  jangled  nerves. 

The  sound  of  my  boy  heading  for  the 
bathroom  brought  me  up  in  bed,  hand  on 
the  gun. 

The  night  passed  and  nothing  happened 
— at  my  house.  Anyone  reading  this  must 
search  their  own  minds  to  know  how  I  felt 
during  the  night,  as  I  don't  think  words 
can  describe  it. 

Have  you  ever  awakened  with  a  start 
from  a  sound  sleep  with  a  feeling  of  prim- 
itive fear,  sweating  and  scared .'  Have  hor- 
rible pictures  of  what  could  happen  to 
your  loved  ones  ever  chased  themselves 
through  your  mind  ?  Then  you  know  how 
I  felt. 

"Cat  Burglar"  Caught 

My  analysis  of  the  "Cat  Burglar"  proved 
right  however.  This  oft  in  trouble,  oft 
paroled,  insane  man  was  caught  trying  to 
re-enter  the  same  house  where  he  had 
molested  the  11 -year-old  girl  and  just 
doors  from  where  he  had  been  almost 
trapped  the  night  before.  He  was  in  cus- 
tody and  would  be  sent  back  to  San  Quen- 
tin  where  he  would  stay  until  a  parole 
board  would  release  him  to  prey  on  society 
again. 

I  guess  they  figure  he  is  harmless — why 
I  don't  know.  Someday  he  will  be  fright- 
ened or  cornered  to  where  he  will  kill.  I 
didn't  want  it  to  be  me  or  any  of  my 
family. 

But  to  get  to  the  reason  for  this  letter, 
all  the  time  my  mind  was  making  a  mon- 
key out  of  my  nerves,  I  knew  that  Oak- 
land's police  were  dedicated  to  the  task  of 
capturing  this  man,  and  that  men  in  blue 
were  sitting  tensely  in  cars  watching  for 
anything  out  of  the  ordinary  and  ready  to 
protect  me  and  my  brood.  It  helped.

AUTO  GUN   RACKS 

In  choosing  optional  equipment,  new 
car  buyers  of  the  future  may  be  asked 
whether  or  not  they  want  guns  and  gun 
racks. 

A  highlight  of  the  Chicago  Automo- 
bile Show,  for  instance,  was  a  Buick  con- 
vertible featuring  built-in  gun  racks  and  a 
pair  of  plated  Winchester  Model  73  rifles 
with  intricately  carved  stocks.  The  rifle 
rack  is  built  into  the  transmission  tunnel 
so  that  the  firearms  are  handily  available 
between  the  two  front  seats. 

Each  door  sports  Western  holsters  car- 
rying a  matched  set  of  .38  caliber  Colt 
revolvers.  All  upholstery  is  natural  Danish 
calf,  the  floor  is  carpeted  in  natural  Jersey 
hide,  and  the  inner  door  panels  and  bucket 
seats  are  of  hand-tooled  leather. 


MOTORING  COSTS 

Last  year  Americans  spent  27  billion 
dollars  to  buy  cars  and  keep  them  running,

Association.

TV  POLICEWOMAN'S  STORY 

TVs  "Decov"  program  shows  a  New  York  Policewoman,  portrayed  by  Santa  Cruz  and  Hollywood's  Beverly  Garland  as 
Paiicia  "Casey"  Jonfs,  run  the  gamut  of  all  possible  experiences  in  an  enjoyable  ha^-hour  earned  weekly  .nCahforn.a  on 
KPIX    San  Francisco    KMJ,  Fresno;  KERO,  Bakersfield;  XETV,  San  Diego  and  KOVR,  Stockton.  Here  .s  her  story. 


Looks  like  the  lady  cops  are  coming 
into  their  own  on  television  as  well  as  on 
the  force.  And  isn't  it  about  time ! 

Outpointing  many  top-rated  network 
and  local  television  shows  these  days  is  a 
lively,  true-to-life  series  dramatizing  the 
week-'to-week  adventures  of  one  Patricia 
"Casey"  Jones,  New  York  City  police- 
woman, portrayed  by  TV  and  film  star 
Beverly  Garland. 

There  seems  to  be  no  limit  to  Miss 
Jones'  detective  talents  and  ingenuity  in 
trapping  lawbreakers  in  their  widely  as- 
sorted anti-social  activties.  She  disguises 
herself  with  equal  aplomb  as  an  unem- 
ployed night  club  chanteuse  to  trap  a  psy- 
chotic girl  who  murdered  her  sailor  boy 
friend  ...  as  a  nurse  in  a  sanatorium  to 
trace  the  high-level  dope  peddler  who's 
supplying  the  daughter  of  a  big-time  gam- 
bler ...  or  as  a  wealthy  young  society 
woman  to  tag  a  gang  of  stick-up  thieves 
who'd  been  preying  on  wealthy  New 
Yorkers.

"Casey"  is  quite  a  bombshell  in  real 
life,  too.  When  beautiful  Beverly  Garland 
was  born  the  earth  literally  shook  .  .  . 
there  was  a  good-sized  earthquake  that  day 
in  Santa  Cruz,  California.  Many  years 
later,  in  lyi-l,  she  shook  up  the  TV  world 
with  her  performance  as  the  young  moth- 
er-to-be, doomed  to  die  of  leukemia,  in 
the  first  "Medic"  show.  For  that  she  re- 
ceived an  "Emmy"  nomination  as  best  tele- 
vision actress  of  the  year. 

Worked  With  Sinatra 
Besides  more  than  100  TV  shows,  Bev- 
erly "Casey"  Garland  has  appeared  in 
many  motion  picture  films,  beginning  with 
"D.  O.  A."  with  Edmund  O'Brien,  in- 
cluding "Hemp  Brown"  with  Rory  Cal- 
houn, and  most  recently  with  Frank  Si- 
natra in  "The  Joker  Is  Wild." 

Beverly  credits  "Decoy"  with  saving  her 
life  and  health,  professionally  speaking, 
since  after  who  knows  how  many  roles  as 
deathly  ill  or  dying  girls  in  a  series  of  tele- 
vision plays  and  motion  picture  horror 
films,  she  has  emerged  as  the  healthy,  very 


much  in-the-pink,  on-the-ball  heroine  of 
her  own  TV  series.  For  this  she  has  had 
to  keep  in  trim,  even  learning  jujitsu,  in 
order  to  cope  with  her  weekly  treks  about 
the  highways,  byways,  subways  and  roof- 
tops of  New  York  and  its  environs.  As  an 
indication  of  the  risks  she  takes  as  routine 
in  her  pseudo-police  life,  the  producers  of 
"Decoy"  have  insured  her  for  a  mere 
milliini  dollars. 

Decoy,  distributed  by  Official  Films, 
Inc.  is  now  being  shown  over  more  than 
80  stations.  Looks  like  it  pays  to  show 
that  crime  does  not  pay,  and  hats  off  to 
"Casey  "  Jones  for  helping  to  show  the 
public  what  officers  of  the  law  go  through 
to  sec  that  it  doesn't.

/.  Ross  Dunnigan,  "Police  and  Peace 
Officers'  Journal"  shooting  expert  reports 
on  an  unusual  contest  in  the  Robin  Hood 
style.  His  article  follows: 

At  the  March  matches  we  were  treated 
to  an  unusual  duel  between  the  pistol  men 
and  a  group  of  archers  from  the  S.  F. 
Archery  Club.  While  it  is  true  the  pistol- 
eers  gave  the  bowmen  a  trimming,  it  was 
rather  a  hollow  victory  as  the  advantage 
was  all  on  their  side  in  size  of  targets,  dis- 
tances, timing  and  weapons.  Perhaps  an- 
other match  under  more  equable  condi- 
tions would  produce  a  very  interesting  bat- 
tle and  I'm  sure  the  archers  would  give 
the  hand  gunners  a  run  for  their  money 
and  possibly  take  'em  at  the  two  shorter 
distances. 

There  were  three  stages  of  fire,  one  at 
25  yards,  another  at  35  and  the  last  at  65 
yards,  five  shots  at  each  stage  in  21/2  min- 
utes on  the  regulation  50-yard  pistol  tar- 
get. The  small  target  wasn't  too  bad  at  the 
shorter  distances  as  the  bowmen  really 
could  put  'em  in  the  black  but  at  the 
longer  distance  the  time  was  too  short  as 
they  should  be  allowed  at  least  a  five  min- 
ute relay. 

Used  Best  Weapon 
The  pistoleers  used  their  best  weapon, 
the  .22  gun,  but  this  should  be  made  into 
the  .45  cannon  at  all  three  distances  so 
with  the  longer  time  for  the  archers  and 
using  the  .45  gun  by  the  gunslingers  this 
would  equalize  the  situation  somewhat  but 
not  altogether. 

As  the  pistol  is  a  much  more  accurate 
weapon  than  the  bow  and  arrow  why  not 
have  the  archers  shoot  on  their  own  targets

and  we  shoot  on  ours?  Maybe  I'm  all  wet 
on  these  changes  as  I  know  nothing  of 
bow  and  arrow  shooting  (aside  from  the 
fact  my  eyes  were  opened  at  the  way  those 
arrows  plopped  into  the  black)  but  per- 
haps the  archers  and  a  pistol  committee 
could  get  together  and  formulate  some 
rules  and  regulations  for  the  next  match. 

The  archers  certainly  surprised  the  spec- 
tators with  their  skill  and  give  us  a  healthy 
respect  for  their  weapon  (and  maybe  a 
better  understanding  of  the  Indians)  so 
the  next  match  should  draw  a  bigger 
crowd  as  both  sides  are  most  anxious  for 
a  return  match. 

Let's  hope  it  comes  ofl^  real  soon.

SONOMA  WINS! 

Two  veteran  law  enforcement  officials 
are  battling  it  out  for  Sheriff  of  Sonoma 
County,  but  regardless  of  the  outcome  of 
the  election — Sonoma  wins. 

Undersheriff  Andrew  Johansen  and 
Sebastopol  Police  Chief  John  Arthur  Ellis 
are  both  fine  men  with  long  and  outstand- 
ing records  in  Sonoma  County  for  service 
in  the  law  enforcement  field. 

Johansen's  career  began  in  1938  when 
he  served  as  an  officer  with  the  Santa  Rosa 
Police  Department.  In  1943  he  was  ap- 
pointed a  Deputy  Sheriff  and  in  1946  be- 
came chief  criminal  deputy.  He  has  been 
Undersheriff  since  1956. 

John  Arthur  Ellis  has  been  Chief  of  Po- 
lice of  Sebastopol  for  the  past  10  years.  T4e 
served  for  13  years  in  the  deputy  sheriff's 
office  and  for  5  years  on  the  Santa  Rosa 
Police  force.  He  is  FBI  trained. 

Regardless  of  the  outcome,  Sonoma 
County  is  assured  of  a  good  Sheriff!

DAY  IN  COURT 

Businessmen,  educators,  professional  people,  peace  officers  and  others  must  have  a  working  knowledge  of  modern  law. 
These  actual  decisions,  condensed  from  radio  broadcasts  of  "Point  of  Law, "  are  screened  for  accuracy  by  local  bar  associa- 
tions and  are  based  on  recent  cases. 


You  leave  your  brief-case,  containing 
valuable  bonds,  in  a  bus  depot  locker.  You 
put  in  a  dime,  lock  it  securely.  When  you 
return,  the  locker  is  empty.  Who's  respon- 
sible? 

Not  the  locker  company,  said  a  New 
Jersey  court.  They  only  furnished  such 
security  as  might  be  afforded  by  its  system 
of  locks.  The  mere  fact  of  loss  doesn't 
show  negligence.  You  can't  collect.  (CASE 
OF  THE  BOUNCING  BONDS,  Marsh 
vs  American  Locker,  19  ALR2d  326.) 

A  trusted  agent  dies — and  you  discover 
he's  embezzled  $^000  from  you.  He  used 
some  of  the  money  to  buy  a  life  insurance 
policy  payable  to  his  widow.  The  widow, 
who  knew  nothing  of  the  crime,  claims 
the  money.  So  do  you.  Who  gets  it.' 

You  do,  according  to  a  split  decision  of 
a  Louisiana  court.  Since  the  money  was 
stolen  in  the  first  place,  the  widow  has 
no  more  rights  than  the  original  thief.  So 
you,  as  victim  can  recover  the  amount 
that  was  stolen.  (CASE  OF  THE  WID- 
OWS  MITE,  Succession  of  Onorato,  24

State  law  in  some  areas  prohibits  speed 
traps,  disguised  officers  cars,  or  measured 
highways.  You're  driving  in  such  an  area 
— cited  for  speeding — and  the  prosecution 
brings  in  radar  evidence.  Will  it  hold  up.' 

Yes,  in  California.  Radar  doesn't  fall 
within  the  definition  of  a  speed  trap.  Here 
the  officers  car  was  plainly  marked;  they 
were  in  uniform.  The  evidence  must 
stand.  (CASE  OF  THE  HI  FI  EYE,  In 
re  Beamer,  133  Adv  Cal  App  93.) 

After  several  unhappy  years,  a  man's 
wife  divorces  him,  leaving  the  children, 
and  marrying  a  foreign  count  who  had 
been  secretly  courting  her  for  a  long  time. 
Do  the  abandoned  children  have  a  legal 
claim  against  the  count  for  alienating  their 
mother's  affections? 

No,  said  a  North  Carolina  Court  in  a 
split  decision.  A  mother  assumes  a  legal 
obligation  to  give  her  children  love  and 
affection.  But  the  law  cannot  measure  the 
amount.  The  count  doesn't  have  to  pay. 
(HENSON  V  THOMAS,  12  ALR2d 
1171.) 

For  months,  you've  been  sleepless  and 
distracted  by  a  neighbor's  barking  dog. 
One  night  you  lose  control,  shoot  the  dog, 
and  bury  him  in  the  garden.  Can  you  be 
prosecuted  for  larceny? 

Yes,  said  a  Connecticut  court.  It  doesn't 
matter  that  you  didn't  get  any  material 
benefit  from  the  crime.  You  intended  to 
deprive  the  owner  permanently  of  his 
property.  It's  too  bad,  but  you  must  be 
found  guilty.  (State  vs  Sawyer,  13  ALR 
139.) 

You've  just  returned  from  Europe,  with 
a  slightly  used  but  quite  rare  French  sedan. 
You  advertise  it  for  sale  at  $5000.  But 
through   a   printer's  error,   it   comes  out

Yes,  said  a  Pennsylvania  court.  Where 
there  is  an  honest  mistake  of  fact,  it  is 
only  fair  to  return  the  parties  to  their

The  following  article  on  automobile  insurance  rates  is  reprinted  from  Motorland, 
fine  magazine  of  the  California  State  Automobile  Association,  but  the  facts  apply 
to  most  of  our  insurance  polices  regardless  of  company. 


To  the  average  motorist,  the  fluctuations 
in  the  rates  charged  for  automobile  insur- 
ance must  be  mystifying,  or  as  unpredict- 
able as  the  ups  and  downs  of  a  yo-yo.  The 
cynical,  of  course,  will  assert  that  insurance 
rates  never  go  down,  but  always  up,  where- 
as in  fact,  the  rates  charged  by  most  in- 
surance companies  have  been  raised  three 
times  and  reduced  three  times  in  the  five 
years,  1952  to  1957,  once  to  a  point  even 
lower  than  they  were  in  1952. 

Automobile  insurance  rates  are  based 
on  five  factors — exposure,  loss  experience, 
the  cost  of  doing  business,  accident  fre- 
quency and  trend,  which  is  the  net  result 
of  the  first  four  factors. 

Exposure  is  the  degree  of  accident  haz- 
ard aflfecting  a  motorist.  Obviously,  the 
traveling  salesman  who  uses  his  automo- 
bile in  his  work  is  exposed  to  a  greater 
hazard — that  is,  he  has  more  chances  to 
be  involved  in  an  accident — than  the  per- 
son whose  use  of  an  automobile  is  not  as- 
sociated with  his  work. 

On  the  average,  California  motorists 
drive  between  9,000  and  9,500  miles  a 
year;  a  salesman  may  drive  two,  three  or 
more  times  that  distance.  Some  even  drive 
60,000  miles  a  year  or  more.  Obviously,

the  car  used  in  such  service  is  exposed  to 
greater  hazard  and  the  rate  charged  for  in- 
suring it  must  be  higher. 

Crowded  Cities 

Likewise  the  place  where  an  automo- 
bile is  used  aflFects  the  hazard  to  which 
it  is  exposed.  In  a  crowded  city  such  as 
San  Francisco,  where  many  automobiles 
must  use  a  limited  mileage  of  streets,  there 
is  a  greater  risk  of  accident  than  in  an 
uncrowded  rural  community.  This  is  the 
reason  why  automobile  insurance  rates 
vary  in  different  areas. 

Loss  experience  is  the  cost  of  settling 
claims  of  insured  drivers.  This  has  in- 
creased tremendously  in  recent  years.  For 
example,  the  local  price  of  a  family  car  in 
the  low-price  class  in  1952  was  $2,048 
without  accessories ;  the  comparable  model 
of  the  same  make  was  priced  at  $2,525 
in  1957.  This  is  an  increase  of  23  per 
cent.  Since  an  insurer  must  contemplate 
the  possible  replacement  of  a  complete 
automobile  as  a  result  of  accident,  this 
factor  naturally  compels  charging  higher 
premiums. 

Another  factor  which  has  required  in- 
surers to  charge  higher  rates  is  the  change 
in  automobile  design,  the  use  of  larger

glass  areas  and  the  increased  intricacy  of 
fender  and  body  lines.  Thus  in  1952,  the 
cost  of  repairing  damage  to  the  front  end 
of  the  same  car  mentioned  above  as  a  re- 
sult of  striking  another  vehicle  or  object 
was  $362.41.  To  repair  the  damage  re- 
sulting from  the  same  kind  of  accident  to 
the  comparable  1957  model  of  the  same 
make  is  $471.14,  an  increase  of  30  per 
cent. 

Windshields  Up 

On  the  same  car,  replacement  of  a  wind- 
shield in  1952  cost  only  $43.31;  in  1957 
it  cost  $126,  an  increase  of  191  per  cent. 

And  if  the  insured  happens  to  have  the 
misfortune  to  injure  someone,  and  the  in- 
surer pays  for  hospitalization,  the  cost  of 
that  is  up,  too.  In  1952,  the  charge  for  a 
bed  in  a  two-bed  room  in  a  typical  hospital 
was  $18;  in  1957  it  was  $24,  an  increase 
of  33  per  cent.  Since  insurance  protects 
the  insured's  legal  liability  for  payment  of 
such  costs,  these  higher  prices  are  factors 
in  forcing  the  rates  up. 

And  if  the  accident  results  in  a  suit  for 
damages,  it  is  quite  likely  that  the  jury 
may  award  a  much  larger  sum  to  the  in- 
jured persons  than  would  have  been  the 
case  in  1952.  This  is  a  very  important 
factor  that  must  be  considered  when  de- 
termining insurance  rates. 

Cost  of  doing  business,  as  nearly  every- 
one realizes,  is  higher  today  than  it  was  in 
1952.  Salaries  are  higher,  rents  are  higher, 
fuel  and  light  cost  more,  oiHce  supplies 
cost  more,  printing  costs  more,  practically 
every  thing  needed  for  an  insurance  op- 
eration to  operate  a  business  costs  more. 

Accident  frequency  is  the  one  factor  af- 
fecting insurance  rates  which  has  de- 
creased since  1952.  That  is,  the  number  of 
accidents  in  proportion  to  the  number  of

miles  people  drive  has  decreased.  This  is 
not  to  say  there  are  fewer  accidents;  there 
are  not.  However,  with  many  more  auto- 
mobiles on  the  road  in  1957  than  there 
were  in  1952,  it  is  only  natural  that  there 
should  be  more  accidents.  But  the  ratio 
of  accidents  to  automobiles  is  down  some- 
what. Unfortunately,  the  decrease  in  ac- 
cident frequency  has  not  yet  been  sufficient 
to  offset  the  factors  which  require  an  in- 
crease in  rates. 

Costs  Higher  Tomorrow 
The  trend  of  these  things  make  up  the 
linal  factor.  As  prudent  men  must,  insurers 
endeavor  to  look  ahead  and  determine 
which  way  the  other  factors  are  going  to 
move.  Anticipating  a  further  increase  in 
the  cost  of  settling  claims,  for  instance, 
they  must  set  rates  which  provide  for  to- 
morrow's higher  costs. 

The  rates  charged  by  the  California 
State  Automobile  Association  Inter-Insur- 
ance Bureau  were  not  raised  in  proportion 
to  the  rising  costs  mentioned  above.  The 
cost  of  a  full  line  of  Bureau  insurance  pro- 
tection for  the  same  family  automobile 
not  used  for  business,  nor  driven  by  a 
male  person  under  25  years  of  age,  was 
only  6  per  cent  more  in  1957  than  in 
1952  in  the  lowest-rated  territory,  and 
only  7  per  cent  more  in  the  highest-rated 
territory.

POLICEMAN,  LAWYER,  STATESMAN 


Bill  Murphy's  life  is  a  success  story. 

Up  until  a  few  months  ago  he  was  a 
San  Francisco  policeman. 

A  young  eager  and  intelligent  officer 
he  quickly  became  well  known  for  his 
heroic  deeds,  his  excellent  arrest  record 
and  the  sincerity  of  his  work. 

During  his  police  service  he  not  once 
but  several  times  was  credited  with  saving 
lives;  the  most  spectacular  being  the  time- 
he  saw  a  runaway  truck  racing  toward  a 
group  of  school  children.  For  an  instant 
the  officer  watched  as  it  came  closer  and 
closer  to  the  little  ones  who  were  frozen 
with  fear. 

Then  suddenly  without  any  thought  to 
his  personal  safety  he  pulled  his  own  car 
across  the  truck's  path  blocking  it  a  sec- 
ond before  it  collicled  with  the  youngsters. 

Six  Commendations 

During  his  ten  years  in  the  San  Fran- 
cisco Police  Department  he  has  received 
six  commendations  and  was  up  for  three 
first  grade  meritorious  awards ! 

He  is  a  former  trustee  of  the  San  Fran- 
cisco Police  Association;  past  president  of 
Trustee's  of  the  Widows  and  Orphans  Aid 
Association,  and  even  now  is  the  proud 
president  of  the  San  Francisco  City  Em- 
ployees' Retirement  Fund. 

During  this  time  Bill  Murphy  was  go- 
ing to  University  of  San  Francisco  during 
the  day,  to  study  law,  doing  his  police 
work  nights,  plus  his  "presidential"  ac- 
tivities on  the  side. 

It  was  a  long  ten  years  and  at  times  it 
was  hard,  but  then  came  the  day  he  got 
his  law  degree  and  things  began  to  look 
up. 

Now  Confidential  Secretary 

Recently  Bill  Murphy  gave  up  his  police 
career  to  become  the  Confidential  Secre- 
tary to  San  Francisco  City  Assessor  Russell 
Wolden. 

This  enterprising  young  man's  reason 
for  taking  the  job  was  that  he  wanted  to

further  his  knowledge  of  Civic  affairs  and 
improve  public  relations. 

Married,  thirty-two  years  old,  and  the 
father  of  two  fine  children,  Bill  is  now 
the  law  instructor  at  the  San  Francisco 
Police  Academy,  thereby  still  keeping  in 
touch  with  San  Francisco's  finest. 

Official  records  reveal  that  many  mem- 
bers of  the  family  are  in  the  San  Francisco 
Police  Department,  and  all  have  extremely 
fine  backgrounds  and  records. 

So  it  is  that  Bill  Murphy,  lawman,  po- 
lice society  president.  Attorney  at  Law, 
Confidential  Secretary,  and  teacher,  is 
building  his  future  with  the  honesty,  in- 
tegrit)',  and  conscientiousness  of  an  ex- 
ceptionally fine  ex-policeman.

The  Suspicious  Scrutiny 
There  are  certain  questions  you  might 
well  keep  in  mind  when  scrutinizing  any 
testamentary  document: 

1.  How  does  the  signature  compare 
with  other  signatures  known  to  be 
genuine  ? 

2.  Does  the  signature  appear  to  be 
traced  ? 

3.  Is  there  evidence  of  erasures? 

4.  Could  the  writing  have  been  inserted 
above  a  genuine  signature  ? 

5.  Has  the  date  of  the  will  been  al- 
tered ? 

6.  Who  typed  the  will  ? 

7.  Is  the  typewriting  consistent  through- 
out? 

8.  Were  pages  substituted — or  of  a  dif- 
erent  kind  of  paper  ? 

9.  Do  initials  on  each  page  appear  to  be 
genuine  ? 

Medical  Records 
The  number  of  malpractice  suits,  as  well 
as  personal  injury  suits,  appear  to  be  in- 
creasing. And  here  too  there  is  temptation 
for  litigants,  and  witnesses.  So  in  any  case 
involving  medical  records,  it's  wise  to  ask 
yourself  these  questions : 

1.  Were  the  medical  records  actually 
written  on  the  date  they  bear  ? 

2.  Are  there  substitutions  or  elabora- 
tions in  the  doctor's  records  ? 

3.  Were  hospital  records  altered? 

4.  Were  accident  reports  revised  or  re- 
written ? 

5.  Is  the  signature  of  the  injured  party 
on  the  release  genuine  ? 

6.  Are  signatures  and  initials  of  a  wit- 
ness or  party  on  a  statement  made 
for  a  claims  agent  genuine  ? 

Medical  witnesses  have  been  known  to 
make  false  statements  regardings  patients' 
records.  Or  they  bring  substituted  records 
to  court.  Examine  records  carefully  during 
court  recesses.  If  necessary,  handwriting 
experts  can  bring  portable  equipment  into 
the  courtroom  for  further  study  and  testi- 
mony.

ticed that  the  word  "penicillin"  appeared

on  a  patient's  record  on  several  dates — 
but  with  one  ink.  Original  entries  were 
written  with  many  diflfercnt  inks.  Backed 
by  a  document  examiner's  opinion,  the 
attorney  was  able  to  make  a  favorable 
settlement  very  cjuickly. 

Anonymous  Letters 

If  one  of  your  clients  receives  an  anony- 
mous letter,  persuade  him  not  to  jump  to 
conclusions.  Wait  until  there  are  other  let- 
ters. For  one  thing,  authorship  is  easier  to 
discover  from  a  series  of  writings.  And  for 
another,  the  emotions  raised  by  such  com- 
munications often  result  in  the  wrong 
person  being  accused. 

Curious  facts  appear  from  series  of 
anonymous  letters.  The  writer  may  men- 
tion his  own  name,  apparently  through 
some  psychological  twist.  One  writer  set 
himself  up  as  a  friendly  go-between,  ap- 
parently protecting  the  victim  from  a  myth- 
ical blacKmailer  named  Louise  Carter — 
who  kept  mentioning  the  name  Robert 
Major  in  the  letters.  Major  was  appre- 
hended and  convicted. 

Some  points  to  look  for  in  anonymous 
letters: 

1.  Is  the  letter  written  in  a  natural  or 
disguised  hand.' 

2.  Can  the  nationality  of  the  writer  be 
termined .' 

3.  Is  there  a  clue  in  paper,  postmark, 
ink,  stamp,  or  envelope.' 

4.  Was  it  written  by  an  employee?  Or 
disgruntled  litigant?  'Vengeful 
neighbor?  Disappointed  suitor? 

5.  What  make  and  model  typewriter 
was  used? 

6.  Can  the  typewriter  be  located  ? 

7.  Are  there  clues  to  typist's  identity? 

Don't  overlook  a  strange  human  para- 
dox; neurotic  people  sometimes  write  un- 
signed letters  to  themselves — often  to  gain 
sympathy  or  attention.  Then  they  engage 
an  attorney  and  an  expert  to  find  out  who 
is  "victimizing"  them. 

A  surprising  number  of  clues  can  usu- 
ally be  developed  by  handwriting  experts 
from  anonymous  letters.  Even  nationality 
can  sometimes  be  determined  from  the 
writing  system.  Typewriters  can  be  classi- 
fied, and  under  certain  conditions,  the 
work  of  the  person  who  used  them. 
The  MiGHTi-  Pen 

The  urge  to  tinker  illicitly  with  pen, 
ink,  and  paper  knows  few  restraints.  One 
gentleman  was  even  detected  tampering 
with  a  patent  application  while  it  was  at 
the  U.  S.  Patent  Office.

FORGED  WILL  OF  ESTHER  H.  Notice  Esthers  ink  didn't  spread  where  it  intersects  the 
fold.  But  the  other  writing  does.  The  signature  came  first,  the  folding  second,  and  "Will" 
third.  This  is  part  of  the  evidence  that  sent  Esther's  nephew  to  jail. 


Perhaps  because  patents  and  copyright 
problems,  and  disputed  document  prob- 
lems are  technical  in  nature,  they  have  a 
kind  of  natural  affinity  for  each  other.  In 
any  event,  it's  sometimes  instructive  to 
carefully  scrutinize  original  plans,  check 
alterations,  and  determine  that  corroborat- 
ing letters  and  notes  are  genuine.

Authenticity  Important,  Too 
Litigants  sometimes  indulge  in  wishful 
thinking — and  convince  themselves  they 
didn't  really  sign  that  paper  after  all.  In 
these  cases  the  expert's  problem  is  not  to 
prove  forgery,  but  authenticity.  This  is 
especially  important  where  a  jury  might 
not  be  in  sympathy  with  the  genuine  docu- 
ments. If  you  foresee  such  a  problem,  bet- 
ter be  prepared  to  protect  your  record  with 
some  adequate  proof. 

Important  Precautions 
Too  many  attorneys  call  a  handwriting 
expert,  hand  him  a  questioned  document 
and  a  genuine  signature,  and  ask  for  an 
opinion.  This  is  bad  practice.  One  exem- 
plar is  rarely  enough  for  a  sound  opinion. 
Additional  samples  of  writing  should  be 
obtained  from  banks,  title  companies, 
\'Oters'  registrations,  and  so  on. 

The  expert  should  see  the  document  be- 
fore trial.  Handwriting  alone  is  only  one 
consideration.  Information  can  be  gleaned 
from  laboratory  study  of  ink,  typing,  wa-

Since  the  CSAA  Inter-Insurance  Bureau 
is  a  non-profit  organization,  funds  not  re- 
quired for  operating  the  Bureau,  for  pay- 
ment of  claims,  or  for  setting  up  reserves, 
are  returned  to  the  insured  members  in  the 
form  of  savings  dividends. 

Even  with  a  liberal  claims  policy,  this 
has  been  possible  because  of  the  efficient 
manner  in  which  the  Inter- Insurance  Bu-

group,  members  of  the  California  State 
Automobile  Association  have  demonstrat- 
ed a  willingness  to  assume  a  greater  per- 
sonal responsibility  for  safe  driving  than 
the  general  public.

Important  too,  is  to  engage  an  expert 
whose  work  and  testimony  will  stand  up 
in  court.  This  requires  long  training  and 
experience.  The  expert  must  be  well  and 
favorably  known  to  local  authorities  and 
the  bar.  Generally  he  should  limit  prac- 
tice to  the  documents  specialty.  A  well 
ei^uipped  laboratory  and  office  are  essential. 
And  his  continuing  study  and  research  arc 
as  important  in  his  field,  they  are  in  law. 
He  must  also  be  familiar  with  rules  of 
evidence  and  trial  procedures. 
Help  to  Expkct 

What  can  you  learn  from  the  handwrit- 
ing expert  ?  Primarily,  four  things  concern- 
ing your  document:  (1)  that  it's  genuine; 
(2)  that  it's  not  genuine;  (i)  a  qualified 
answer;  or  (4)  no  opinion. 

The  last  two  results  may  come  about  be- 
cause of  insufficient  samples,  or  because 
the  questioned  sample  is  too  limited. 

Close  cooperation  between  attorney  and 
expert  is  highly  essential.  For  one  thing, 
the  expert's  training  may  help  him  recog- 
nize important  facts  that  arc  actually  ex- 
trinsic to  the  problem  presented.  For  an- 
other, he's  been  through  similar  situations 
many,  many  times.  The  attorney  may  find 
the  situation  somewhat  novel.  So  the  ex- 
pert's suggestions  as  to  preparation  and 
trial  strategy  can  be  very  valuable. 

Again,  the  attorney  may  have  to  spend

time  hunting  for  decisions  on  handwriting 
evidence;  the  expert  most  likely  has  a  full 
collection  in  his  brief  case.  Though  a  lay- 
man, he  can  be  counted  on  to  have  a 
pretty  good  idea  of  the  law  relating  to  his 
specialty. 

It  takes  thought  and  effort  to  prepare  a 
case  well,  with  expert  testimony  and  photo- 
graphic demonstrations.  The  reward  is 
when  the  court  or  jury  say  to  themselves, 
"Why,  we  didn't  really  need  an  expert  at 
all;  anyone  can  see  that  signature  is  a 
phony!" 

There  arc  altogether  too  many  forgeries 
and  alterations  that  have  succeeded.  The 
attorney  has  the  primary  responsibility  for 
weeding  them  out.  A  faint  suspicion,  con- 
firmed by  expert  opinion,  can  completely 
change  the  theory  of  a  case,  save  long  dep- 
ositions and  tedious  trial. 

Many  new  scientific  techniques  have 
been  developed  to  aid  the  study  of  ques- 
tioned documents.  But  if  the  documents 
are  never  scrutinized,  the  fraud  is  never 
detected.

Quintilian  summed  it  up  neatly  some 
2,000  years  ago  when  he  remarked,  "Your 
day  in  court  may  be  jeopardized  or  marred 
by  a  document  in  the  hands  of  your  antag- 
onist; you  may  do  well  to  question  its 
genuineness." 

Good  advice  20  centuries  later !

freeway's' NAMED 

The  California  Highway  Commission 
has  assigned  names  to  three  freeway  routes 
in  Orange  County,  one  of  them  involving 
a  partial  revision  of  a  previous  designa- 
tion. 

The  names  and  routes  designated  are: 

Newport  Freeway — The  adopted  ffee- 
way  route  for  State  Sign  Route  55,  extend- 
ing from  Newport  Beach  to  a  connection 
with  the  Riverside  Freeway  (State  Sign 
Route  18-US  Highway  91)  near  Olive. 

Garden  Grove  Freeway — The  adopted 
freeway  route  for  State  Sign  Route  22, 
extending  from  a  junction  with  the  pro- 
posed San  Diego  Freeway  northeast  of 
Long  Beach  to  a  junction  with  the  pro- 
posed Newport  Freeway  east  of  Santa 
Ana. 

Riverside  Freeway — State  Sign  Route 
18-US  Highway  91  from  a  junction  with 
the  San  Bernardino  Freeway  east  of  Colton 
to  a  junction  with  the  adopted  route  of 
State  Sign  Route  14  near  Olive,  and  then 
west  along  the  Sign  Route  14  freeway 
route  to  a  junction  with  the  Santa  Ana 
Freeway  at  Buena  Park. 

The  previously  designated  Riverside 
Freeway  route  followed  State  Sign  Route 
18-US  Highway  91  and  a  portion  of  the 
State  Sign  Route  55  freeway  route  from 
east  of  Colton  to  a  junction  with  the  Santa 
Ana  Freeway  near  Tustin.  The  State  Sign 
Route  55  portion  of  this  route  has  now 
been  included  in  the  Newport  Freeway 
designation.

and  evaluate  it.  May  I  therefore  propose 
that  we  make  a  permanent  exchange  of 
our  two  magazines.  I  have  pleasure  in 
sending  you  one  copy  of  our  Bulletin — for

TO   THE 

Editor: 

We  have  had  an  inquiry  from  a  member 
of  the  Police  Officers'  Wives  Club  as  to 
the  meaning  of  the  seven-pointed  police 
star.  We  have  searched  through  all  our  po- 
lice material  for  the  answer,  but  have  failed 
to  find  anything  that  explains  the  origin 
of  the  star  and  the  meaning  of  the  seven 
points. 

If  you  have  any  information  on  this, 
we  should  be  very  grateful  if  you  would 
send  it  to  us.

Dear  Sir: 

Thought  your  article  on  handwriting 
and  sex  crime  was  rather  far-fetched!  How- 
ever, I  realize  it's  differences  of  opinion 
that  make  horse-racing.  'What  did  your 
others  readers  think  of  the  story?

Dear  Editor: 

Your  "Day  in  Court"  feature  in  the 
February  issue  of  the  Police  Journal 
was  a  crackerjack.  Can  we  have  more  Clarr 
and  Michel  Lipman?  Also  liked  the  "Po- 
licewoman '  poem  by  the  youngster.

I  have  noted  references  to  several  arti- 
cles in  your  Journal  Police  and  Peace

me,  not  only  for  my  own  personal  use,

information  you  may  be  able  to  supply  as

Your  article  on  seat  belts  hit  home.  My 
nephew  was  seriously  injured  when  he 
hit  the  windshield  while  riding  with  a  pal 
who  went  to  sleep  at  the  wheel  and  smash- 
ed into  a  tree.  A  seat  belt  would  have 
saved  him.

1913  TAHOE  TRIP 


Page  39 


This  nostalgic  account  of  the  "Highway  Hazards  in  1913"  was  written  by  (;.  B.  Stebbins,  now  retired  in  Michigan.  Officers 
in  1958  will  get  a  wry  chuckle  out  of  the  motorist's  problems  before  World  War  L 


The  combination  of  a  long  l'"ourth  of 
July  holiday  and  some  friends  who  had 
just  purchased  a  new  Cadillac  automobile 
meant  a  trip  for  me  that  I  still  rcmcinbcr 
some  4">  years  later. 

In  1913  the  Fourth  of  July  fell  on  a 
Friday  so  the  governor  of  California  de- 
clared Saturday  a  legal  holiday  closing  the 
First  National  Bank  of  Richmond  where  I 
was  then  working.  I  had  a  few  days  vaca- 
tion coming  and  so  when  two  brothers 
who  owned  a  Richmond  grocery  store  told 
me  they  had  bought  a  new  four-cylinder 
Cad  and  invited  me  to  take  a  trip  with 
them  to  Lake  Tahoe,  I  jumped  at  the 
chance. 

We  left  Thursday  afternoon  as  soon  as 
the  bank  closed  and  drove  as  far  as  Liver- 
more  that  afternoon  to  spend  the  night. 

The  next  day — the  4th — we  got  mixed 
up  in  a  road  race  between  Los  Angeles 
and  Sacramento.  The  race  was  originally 
scheduled  to  end  at  San  Francisco,  but  the 
authorities  would  not  allow  it  to  run  be- 
tween Sacramento  and  San  Francisco. 

At  Stockton,  we  tried  to  get  on  the  main 
road  to  Sacramento,  but  it  was  blocked  off

on  account  of  the  race.  After  trying  at  sev- 
eral intersections,  we  finally  persuaded  the 
motorcycle  oflicer  that  we  had  to  reach 
Placerville  that  night  and  he  allowed  us  on 
the  road,  but  warned  us  to  keeji  a  sharj-> 
lookout  for  the  racers,  and  if  we  saw  one, 
to  immediately  pull  otT  the  higln\'ay  onto 
the  shoulder. 

Drovi;  60  MPH 

Although  we  drove  about  60,  which 
was  fast  in  those  days  (editor's  note:  it 
still  is)  I  finally  saw  a  speck  in  the  distance 
to  the  south.  We  promptly  slowed  up  and 
pulled  off  the  road,  but  another  motor- 
cycle man  told  us  to  get  farther  off,  which 
we  did. 

We  had  hardly  stopped  when  the  racer 
sped  by,  traveling  at  a  furious  pace  it 
seemed  to  me.  At  a  garage  in  Sacramento 
we  saw  and  talked  with  one  race  driver. 
He  was  dog-tired  and  looked  it,  having 
driven  from  the  previous  midnight  until 
that  noon. 

We  reached  Placerville  that  night,  as 
planned,  and  stayed  at  the  Ohio  House. 
Going  up  through  the  Sierras  that  day,  we 
stopped  once  or  twice  to  till  the  radiator

with  water.  I  recall  at  one  mount.iin  brook 
seeing  small  specks  on  the  bottom  that 
looked  like  gold. 

1  was  told  that  it  was  gold,  but  so  very 
thin  were  the  pieces  that  they  could  almost

We  reached  Lake  Tahoe  about  Saturday 
noon,  and  what  a  sight  it  was  when  we 
first  beheld  it  I  From  a  thousand  feet  above 
the  lake,  it  stretched  out  for  miles,  a  deep 
sapphire  blue,  while  around  it  were  nu- 
merous peaks,  many  still  snowclad. 

Our  first  stop  was  Tallac  Tavern.  A 
short  distance  behind  it  rose  snow-covered 
Mt.  Tallac.  Actually  there  were  just  a  few 
patches  of  snow  left.  We  slept  in  tents  and

how  we  slept.  On  Monday  we  drove  past 
Fallen  Leaf  Lake  to  a  small  inn  where  we 
parked  our  car  and  started  our  climb  to 
the  top  of  Mt.  Tallac,  nearly  10,000  feet 
high. 

When  we  had  passed  through  the  Sacra- 
mento Valley  on  Friday,  the  temperature 
was  106.  On  Monday  we  had  a  snowball 
fight. 

Scow  Was  Bridge 

In  1913,  the  road  on  the  west  side  of 
Lake  Tahoe  was  not  connected,  making  it 
necessary  to  put  the  car  on  a  scow  and 
have  it  towed  north  to  where  the  other 
road  ended. 

We  spent  most  of  our  time  at  two  re- 
sorts on  the  west  side  of  the  lake — Home- 
wood  and  McKinney's. 

We  went  swimming  in  the  lake  once, 
and  once  was  enough,  unless  one  likes  ice 
water  in  which  to  swim.  I  rented  a  row- 
boat  and  rowed  out  a  distance.  The  water 
was  so  clear  that  I  could  see  bottom  at 
about  80  feet. 

We  had  one  dinner  at  Tahoe  Tavern, 
toward  the  north  end  of  the  lake.  It  was  a 
large  inn  made  of  huge  logs;  it  probably 
still  exists.  (It  does.) 

I  understand  that  Lake  Tahoe  is  now 
the  summer  resort  for  many  movie  stars. 
I  would  like  to  go  there  again  sometime. 
In  1913  there  were  no  summer  homes  that 
I  recall,  just  a  few  rustic  resorts  scattered 
along  the  shore.

DOUGHTY  OFFICER  HEADS  PATTERSON  POLICE!  Alex  S.  Kosich  is  Chief  of  Police 
for  the  Patterson  Force  and  keeps  law  and  order  in  the  California  town.  His  excellent  recorcl 
as  a  Probation  Officer  in  Modesto  sparked  the  Patterson  appointment. 


TRAFFIC  HEAVIER 

Traffic  counts  taken  by  the  Division  of 
Highways  for  the  first  10  months  of  1957 
show  a  6.2  per  cent  increase  in  traffic 
throughout  the  State  of  California  over 
the  corresponding  period  for  1956. 

The  greatest  increase  occurred  in  Dis- 
trict VIII  (San  Bernardino  and  parts  of 
Riverside  and  Kern  Counties)  where  traf- 
fic volumes  went  up  12.1  per  cent.  The 
only  district  to  show  a  decrease  was  Dis- 
trict I  (Del  Norte,  Mendocino,  Humboldt, 
Lake  and  part  of  Trinity  Counties)  where 
traffic  dropped  off  1.7  per  cent. 


SIGNAL 

Remember  this  when  you're  driving — 
other  drivers  have  a  right  to  know  what 
you  are  going  to  do  next.  The  California 
State  Automobile  Association  says  com- 
munication between  drivers  is  an  impor- 
tant part  of  good  driving.  Signal  your  in- 
tentions before  you  pull  out  of  a  parking 
space,  before  you  turn,  slow  down  or  stop.

MOTEL   INDUSTRY   GROWS 


Along  with  the  tremendous  increase  in 
use  of  the  automobile  for  both  business 
and  vacation  travel  in  America,  there  has 
been  a  spectacular  growth  in  the  size  and 
importance  of  the  motel  industry.  This 
rapidly  expanding  branch  of  the  nation's 
accommodations  business,  was  recognized 
across  the  country  during  National  Motel 
Week,  May  18  through  24. 

The  California  State  Automobile  Asso- 
ciation reports  that  Americans  do  85  per 
cent  of  their  traveling  by  automobile. 
These  Americans  on  the  move,  demanding 
modern  accommodations  convenient  to 
the  motorist,  have  given  rise  to  the  motel 
industry, 

Motels  in  the  United  States  now  num- 
ber over  57,000  with  more  than  8,000  in 
California  alone;  and  more  are  being  built 
every  day.  Motels  represent  a  total  invest- 
ment of  $7  billion.  Last  year  they  paid  a 
whopping  $160,600,000  for  keeping  the 
rooms  clean.  This  was  in  addition  to 
$150,800,000  paid  in  wakes,  $123,200,- 
000  for  laundry,  $25,000,000  for  linen, 
china  and  glassware  and  direct  property 
taxes  of  $60,000,000. 

More  motels  than  ever  are  providing 
extra  services  that  were  practically  un- 
known ten  years  ago,  such  as  restaurants.

swimming  pools,  service  stations  and 
lounges.  Telephones  and  television  in 
every  room  are  featured  in  many.  Some 
large,  de  luxe  motels  offer  a  wide  range 
of  services  including  banking,  barber 
shops,  swimming  pools  and  children's  play 
areas.  They  are  in  reality,  complete,  mod- 
ern villages. 

Motels  provide  sleeping  space  for  1,- 
500,000  people  each  night,  enough  to  al- 
low every  person  in  the  United  States  to 
sleep  in  a  motel  four  nights  a  year. 

Motorists  avail  themselves  of  these  serv- 
ices to  the  tune  of  $2  billion  each  year, 
a  significant  endorsement  of  the  motel  in- 
dustry's ability  to  provide  modern,  con- 
venient lodging,  With  more  than  three 
times  as  many  automobiles  as  all  the  other 
peoples  of  the  world  combined,  the  motel 
has  become  the  home  away  from  home  for 
many  traveling  Americans.

WESTERN  REVOLVER  RESULTS 


Just  finished  looking  over  the  19'>7  Pis- 
tol Averages  for  the  Western  Revolver 
Association,  its  winners,  runner-uppers 
and  other  such  data  published  each  year. 
Two  notable  changes:  ( 1 )  they  have  raised 
the  WRA  dues  from  one  buck  to  a  buck 
and  a  half,  (2)  there  are  now  eight  classi- 
fications from  Distinguished  M,ister  down 
to  Marksman  (not  so  distinguished). 

This  is  rather  a  novelty  in  the  shooting 
business  but  it  does  split  up  the  classes  so 
that  more  shooters  can  carry  home  the

medals  and  trophies  they  give  out.  Its  well 
worth  a  try  and  no  doubt  will  be  liked 
by  the  gun  nuts. 

Before  I  forget  it  I  should  mention  that 
Bob  Chow,  the  San  Francisco  gunsmith, 
won  the  1957  WRA  championship  trophy 
lor  the  seventh  time  in  the  last  18  years 
with  a  score  of  432*).  Jim  W.ide,  the  crack 
army  shooter,  finished  second  with  a  4319 
and  Milt  Klipfci,  the  shooting  Highway 
Patrolman,  dropped  to  third  place  with  a 
4312.  Milt  copped  the  championship  med- 
als in  1955  and  1956. 

Four  Records  Smashi;d 

There  were  four  WRA  records  knocked 
over,  one  by  Milt  Klipfel  in  the  .22  caliber 
who  shot  a  200  -|-  350  in  the  20-shot 
timed-fire  match.  Offut  Pinion,  of  the 
U.  S.  Olympic  Team,  set  a  new  record  of 
197  with  a  .38  gun  in  the  20-shot  slow- 
fire  match;  Charley  Young,  the  Highway 
Patrol  team  meinber,  shot  a  196  in  the  20- 
shot  rapid  fire  match  with  his  .45  and  fi- 
nally champion  Bob  Chow  set  a  new  rec- 
ord of  198  in  the  .38  rapid-fire  match. 

Of  the  24  difl^erent  matches  Chow  holds 
the  record  in  three  of  the  matches  and  is 
tied  for  record  in  five.  Klipfel  holds  two 
records  and  is  tied  in  three.  This  is  the 
first  year  Young  and  Wade  have  made  the 
record  list.  Four  records  were  tied  during 
the  year. 

The  Master  Class  Team  winners  was,  as 
usual,  the  California  Highway  Patrol 
Team.  The  S.  F.  Police  Revolver  team  won 
the  Expert  Class;  the  Sharpshooter  Class 
was  won  by  the  Oakland  Fuzzy- Wuzzies 
while  the  City  College  team   (subsidiary

of  the  S.  I-.  P.  D. )  took  the  Marksman- 
ship trophy.  There  were  26  teams  listed 
in  the  booklet  and  as  stated  "only  (cams 
that  fired  in  five  or  more  matches  were 
listed"  but  I  know  there  must  be  at  le.ist 
20  more  that  did  not  fire  the  ret]uired  five 
matches. 

Club  Shows  Di:ki(:it 

One  detail  in  the  book  is  not  too  good 
(or  the  club  and  perhaps  is  the  reason  for 
upping  the  dues  is  that  after  all  the  smoke 
cleared  away  the  Club  showed  a  deficit  of 
$95.80  and  that  ain't  good  !  Lets  hope 
the  $1.50  dues  will  show  some  black  in  at 
the  end  of  1958. 

On  the  last  page  we  have  this:  "Mark- 
ell,  Inc.,  will  award  a  trophy  to  any  shoot- 
er who  fires  a  lOX  possible  with  the  .38 
or  .4 '5  at  the  Oakland  Matches  during 
1958.  In  addition  if  the  shooter  is  using 
Markell  bullets  at  the  time  he  fires  the 
lOX  possible  he  will  receive  a  $50. 00 
merchandise  order!"  This  offer,  minus  the 
$50  order,  was  in  eflfect  last  year  with  nary 
a  winner.  — By  J.  Ross  Dunnkian

DON'T  PITY  THE  POOR  CONVICT 


Why  pity  the  "poor  convict"  when  no 
one  really  has  to  go  to  jail?  Isn't  it  about 
time  the  public  begins  to  take  a  realistic 
view  of  the  convict,  and  to  consider  his 
misdeeds  and  general  good-for-nothing- 
ness?  Altogether  too  much  glamor  and 
romance  has  been  heaped  upon  the  law- 
breaker, the  check  passer,  the  arsonist,  the 
robber,  the  swindler,  the  rapist  and  the 
murderer.  All  in  all  most  convicts  are  a 
sorry  lot,  devoid  of  qualities  of  upstanding 
men.  Many  are  downright  stupid.  Others 
are  crafty,  scheming  and  willful.  Some 
are  cruel  and  brutal.  They  have  no  toler- 
ance for  their  fellow  man  nor  his  human 
rights. 

These  are  the  men  who  periodically 
stage  bloody  riots  in  our  prisons,  destroy 
thousands  of  dollars  of  property,  and  even 
maim  and  kill  brave  peace  officers  whose 
unenviable  duty  it  is  to  apprehend  and 
control  them. 

Again  I  repeat,  no  one  really  has  to 
go  to  prison.  A  mere  obeyance  of  the  laws 
of  this  land  prevents  this  eventuality.  Mil- 
lions of  people  live  in  peace  and  harmony 
with  their  fellow  man.  They  never  come 
in  contact  with  law  enforcement  officers. 
They  have  a  decent  respect  for  their  gov- 
ernment and  constituted  authority.  They 
know  that  if  they  conduct  themselves  as 
good  and  decent  people  should,  they  will 
never  run  afoul  of  the  law. 

Flaunt  Rights 

But  if  they  disobey  the  law  of  the  land 
and  continue  to  flagrantly  flaunt  the  rights 
of  others,  they  may  eventually  find  them-

selves  behind  the  bars.  Eventually,  is  used 
ad\isedly.  No  one  is  sent  to  prison  for 
the  first  offense,  unless  the  crime  is  par- 
ticularly atrocious,  violent,  and  beyond  all 
sense  of  human  right  and  dignity. 

Those  who  finally  land  in  the  peniten- 
tiary have  had,  during  their  lives,  many 
brushes  with  the  law.  They  have  been 
given  chance  after  chance  to  be  good  and 
law-abiding  citizens.  Many  of  their  viola- 
tions have  been  overlooked.  Courts  have 
been  lenient.  Probation  has  been  gener- 
ously granted.  But  this  show  of  leniency 
and  granting  of  clemency  has  been  con- 
strued by  them  as  a  weakness  of  law  en- 
forcement. To  the  offender,  this  has  been 
of  no  avail.  He  has  not  looked,  listened 
and  stopped. 

The  convict  who  at  last  gets  into  the 
pen  has,  in  the  majority  of  cases,  long 
offended.  In  his  youth  he  has  been  a 
bully  and  a  hoodlum.  He  has  committed 
many  minor  misdemeanors.

For  these  he  might  have  gotten  only  a

he  may  get  away  with  almost  anything. 
He  enters  a  home  and  steals  valuable 
property.  He  may  engage  in  armed  rob- 
bery, car  theft  and  any  number  of  other 
offenses.  He  is  the  guy  who  will  beat  you 
over  the  head,  throw  you  out  of  your  ma- 
chine in  a  lonely  spot  after  you  have  been 
good  enough  to  pick  him  up  as  he  hitch- 
hiked along  the  highway,  and  transported 
him  for  many  miles. 

Some  with  less  danger  to  themselves, 
engage  in  writing  fictitious  checks  or  in 
forgery.  For  these  escapades  he  may  re- 
ceive a  sentence  of  a  few  months  in  the 
county  jail.  With  good  behavior,  "While 
he  is  in  the  clink,"  he  may  be  sent,  to  a 
county  prison  camp  or  farm.  And  soOn  he 
may  get  out  on  parole.  Even  before  this 
he  may  have  been  granted  probation  and 
not  thrown  into  jail  at  all. 

But  soon  he  is  out,  in  circulation  again. 
He  may  be  your  next  door  neighbor.  Or 
he  may  be  back  on  the  streets.  If  he  be- 
haves himself,  which  he  seldom  does,  you 
may  know  very  little  about  him. 

However,  many  do  not  care  to  earn  a 
living  by  honest  methods.  Getting  some- 
thing by  crookedness  and  stealth  is  often 
much  easier  than  working  long  hours  for 
equal  gain.  He  may  perpetuate  another 
unlawful  act  and  not  be  apprehended.  But, 
if  he  is  caught,  there  might  be  slight  in- 
convenience with  short  incarceration,  early 
parole,  shortening  of  time  served  and 
discharge  at  an  early  date.  Leniency,  con- 
sideration and  understanding  by  the  ju- 
diciary have  done  him  little  good.

may  become  so  nonsensical,  unreasonable, 
persistent  and  violent  that  there  is  no  alter- 
native but  to  send  him  to  the  penitentiary. 

He  is  sent  to  the  penitentiary  not  to  be 
punished  for  his  misdeeds.  He  is  sent  there 
to  make  him  realize  that  he  has,  by  his  con- 
tinued antisocial  acts,  rendered  hinisclt' 
unfit  to  mingle  with  his  law  abiding  fel- 
low citizens.  He  is  kept  there,  as  the  law 
prescribes,  until  a  diligent  but  tolerant 
parole  board  feels  that  he  may  again  be 
given  another  chance  to  make  good  on 
the  outside.  For  the  duration  of  his  sen- 
tence the  convict  is  at  le.ist  kept  from 
preying  on  the  general  public. 

Keeping  the  prisoner  in  the  magniticent, 
country  club  institutions  which  the  state 
and  federal  governments  are  putting  up 
and  maintaining  at  the  present  time  is, 
indeed,  no  hardship  on  the  offender.  It 
costs  over  a  thousand  dollars  a  year  to  keep 
a  convict  in  the  penitentia^)^  And  this  is 
probably  a  gross  understatement.  The 
statisticians  like  to  make  it  appear  much 
less  than  it  really  is.  And  in  his  very  com- 
fortable  surroundings,   seldom   does    the

inmate,  by  any  duty  which  he  might  per- 
form, repay  the  amount  of  the  outlay 
which  he  is  costing  the  state. 

Rehabilitation  Is  Aim 

The  aim  of  the  correctional  system,  as 
the  name  implies,  is  to  rehabilitate  the 
prisoner.  According  to  Mr.  Noah  Web- 
ster's Dictionary,  to  rehabilitate  means — 
to  fit  out,  to  equip  for  working,  to  dress. 
Great  expenditures  of  money  are  being 
laid  out  for  this  so-called  rehabilitation. 
The  purpose  is  to  turn  the  inmate  back 
into  society  in  a  better  condition  than  that 
which  he  had  when  he  entered.  By  this 
means,  it  is  hoped  that  he  will  become  a 
law  abiding  citizen,  live  a  useful  and  hon- 
orable life  and  never  again  foul  himself 
up  by  repeating  his  crime  or  committing 
a  new  one. 

Much  can  be  done  to  restore  a  pris- 
oner's health.  This  I  know.  From  the  time 
I  became  Chief  Surgeon  of  the  California 
State  Prison  at  San  Quentin  in  1913,  until 
the  time  of  my  retirement  from  state  serv- 
ice in  1951,  I  saw  thousands  of  prisoners 
turned  out  of  the  institution  in  much  better 
physical  condition  than  when  they  entered. 
It  was  the  aim  and  purpose  of  the  Medical 
Department  to  put  the  man  in  such  shape 
physically  that,  when  he  did  go  out,  he 
could,  if  he  wished,  do  enough  work  to 
properly  maintain  himself. 

In  recent  years  the  effort  has  been,  in 
some  penal  institutions  to  rehabilitate  him 
mentally  to  change  his  pattern,  as  they  say. 

For  this  purpose  a  great  corps  of  social 
workers,  psychologists,  and  psychiatrists 
have  been  added  to  the  personnel.  Pris- 
oners always  have  had  opportunities  to  at- 
tend church  and  receive  spiritual  council 
in  accordance  with  their  religious  beliefs. 
And  even  the  minor  penal  institutions 
have  provided  schools  and  teachers  for 
those  who  wished  to  avail  themselves  of 
such  services.  But  now,  the  effort  seems 
to  be  to  revamp  the  inmate's  mental  status, 
to  change  his  pattern,  and  to  make  a  good 
boy  out  of  a  bad  one.  The  psychiatrists, 
the  "spoof  doctors"  as  the  convicts  call 
them,  seem  to  think  they  can  do  this.

Con  Ni:i:ds  Brains 

11  a  tonvict,  now  known  as  inmates,  has 
a  smattering  of  brains  at  all,  and  has  a 
deep  feeling  to  go  right,  he  does  not  have 
to  have  all  this  lostiy,  ineffectual  and  per- 
sonnel consuming  rehabilitation  which  is 
having  such  a  surge  at  this  time.  But,  of 
course,  there  arc  not  many  of  them  who 
have  enough  understanding  to  know  that 
the  path  they  have  pursued  in  the  past  is 
not  the  right  one.  They  have  not  learned 
by  trial  and  failure.  And  with  such  men- 
talities they  are  not  suitable  or  capable  of 
taking  on  a  lot  of  education. 

The  percentage  of  morons,  mentally  re- 
tarded, ne'er  do  wells,  psychotics,  neu- 
rotics and  psychopaths  is  large  in  a  prison 
population.  Teaching  or  trying  to  teach 
these  individuals  high  school  and  univer- 
sity courses  is  just  that  much  time  and 
money  wasted. 

There  are,  on  the  other  hand,  some  very 
smart  criminals.  These  are  in  jail  for  big 
but  crooked  deals.  Had  they  used  the  same 
amount  of  ingenuity,  cleverness,  brains 
c'nd  effort  that  they  did  in  committing 
their  crimes,  they  might  have  ranked  as 
highly  successful  business  men  and  be 
greatly  respected  in  their  communities. 
Surely  these  men  knew  the  difference  be- 
tween right  and  wrong,  and  between 
honesty  and  dishonesty. 

All  efforts  at  rehabilitating  or  reform- 
ing these  gentlemen  will  be  of  no  purpose 
at  all,  if  they  do  not  have  it  in  their  minds 
to  follow  the  straight  and  narrow  path. 
It  is  entirely  up  to  them,  themselves.  If 
they  still  remain  on  the  wrong  side,  more 
education  in  prison  will  only  tend  to  make 
them  better  and  more  formidable  crooks. 

SYMPATHY    Ml.SPLACED 

It  is  a  trend  nowadays  to  do  more  and 
more  for  the  underling,  for  the  underpri- 
vileged, the  one  who  "never  had  a 
chance."  And  this  applies  to  those  who 
were  unfortunate  enough,  through  their 
own  misdeeds,  to  (ind  themselves  wards 
ot  our  penal  system.  All  kinds  of  mis- 
placed sympathy  are  bestowed  upon  these

unworthy  people.  "They  never  had  a 
chance.  "  —  "They  came  from  broken 
homes."  —  "They  grew  up  in  a  bad  en- 
vironment." —  "They  did  not  have 
enough  recreation."  —  "They  were  re- 
jected by  their  parents."  And  there  are 
scores  of  other  such  statements  by  which 
they  seek  to  justify  their  crimes  against 
their  fellow  men.  It  is  not  long  before 
this  class  of  humanity  begins  to  feel  sor- 
ry for  itself,  to  think  it  its  mistreated,  and 
that  life  has  not  been  good  to  its  kind. 
They  think  they  deserve  to  be  taken  care 
of,  to  be  housed,  fed  and  have  all  per- 
sonal needs  supplied,  When  this  attitude 
is  established,  the  more  they  get  the  more 
they  want.  And  they  demand  it.  Their 
pattern  has  been  fixed. 

Reliance  upon  one's  self  is  fast  moving 
into  discard.  Since  people  of  ordinarily 
normal  mentality  are  frequently  looking 
for  something  for  nothing,  how  about  the 
mcntallv  abnormal  or  rather  subnormal 
,  pc  which  has  begun  to  thrive  on  charity 
,  id  benefits  which  he  in  no  way  merits 
or  deserves?  Such  is  the  seed  from  which 
prison  riots  are  germinated. 

In  the  penitentiaries  and  penal  institu- 
tions every  need  is  provided  for,  housing, 
food,  'clothing,  entertainment,  recreation, 
sports  and  almost  every  other  thing  which 
could  be  desired.  These  are  all  supplied. 
It  is  one  of  the  premiums  or  privileges 
of  being  thrown  in  jail. 

Taxpayers  Stuck 

What  has  the  prisoner  given  to  warrant 
all  these  comforts  and  luxuries  ?  He  has 
done  nothing  useful  or  constructive.  On 
the  other  hand,  he  has  so  conducted  him- 
self in  the  commission  of  crime  that  he 
has  cost  the  taxpayers  untold  thousands  of 
dollars  in  convicting  him  and  maintaining 
him  with  the  best  the  land  allows. 

With  the  prisoner  there  is  always  the 
demand  for  more  and  more.  Give  an  inch 
and  he  wants  a  foot.  Demands  ever  in- 
crease— less  work,  more  recreation,  better 
food,  more  liberty  and  a  host  of  others. 
As  it  is,  there  is  not  enough  work  in  most 
of  the  institutions  to  keep  him  busy.  They

want  better  food.  California  prisons  boast 
that  better  food  is  served  in  them  than  in 
the  armed  forces.  They  want  more  recrea-

them.  They  may  complain  that  some  pris- 
on guard,  now  called  Custodial  Officers, 
spoke  to  harshly  to  them.  They  want  more 
rights  and  privileges.  They  have  forgotten, 
that,  by  their  criminal  acts,  they  have  for- 
feited rights  which  are  accorded  to  honest 
and  upright  men.  The  demands  go  on  and 
on.  Some  officials  give  in  to  these  whims 
and  wants.  It  is  well  and  good  if  the  sit- 
uation warrants.  But  it  is  very  bad  as  a 
means  of  appeasement.  When  there  is 
finally  a  halt  in  giving  concessions  trouble 
begins. 

Riots  Have  Roots 

Prison  riots  have  many  causes.  They  are 
usually  due  to  the  fact  that  some  of  the 
prisoners  want  something  beyond  the 
many    rights    and    privileges    they    have

granted  to  them.  These  riots  have  been 
destructive  of  property  and  have  cost  many 
Hves.  And  they  have  caused  much  mental 
anguish  and  civil  disturbance  in  their  sup- 
pression. 

In  handling  prisoners,  the  best  and  most 
satisfactory  policy  is  for  the  administration 
to  be  firm,  but  at  the  same  time  to  be  fair. 
This  is  acceptable  on  both  sides.  Inmates 
respect  officials  who  are  fair,  who  will 
weigh  the  facts  honestly  and  impartially. 
They  admire  a  man  who  is  firm  in  his 
decisions.  In  my  many  years  of  dealing 
with  prisoners  I  have  tried  to  be  fair.  I 
think  it  has  paid  off.  And  at  the  same 
time  I  have  had  to  be  firm.  Vacillation 
would  have  been  of  no  avail.  Since  re- 
tirement from  active  prison  work,  I  have 
met,  in  travelling  about  the  world,  many 
of  my  former  inmates. 

Without  exception  they  have  greeted  me 
as  one  of  their  friends.  I  have  met  them  in 
places  where  they  could  easily  "have  done 
me  in"  had  they  so  desired. 

But  I  do  not  pity  the  "poor  convict." 
He  has  had  the  best  of  it  more  often  than 
not.  More  and  more  is  being  done  for 
him.  And  less  does  he  appreciate  it.  In  the 
nineteen-thirties  San  Quentin  was  over- 
crowded. It  had  6500  prisoners.  And  for 
all  these  inmates  there  was  a  total  of  250 
officials,  including  guards,  foremen,  ac- 
countants, heads  of  departments  and  ad- 
ministrative officers. 

The  prisoners,  in  those  days,  were  al- 
lowed to  do  much  of  the  work  in  the  in- 
stitution. They  were  permitted  to  do  ste- 
nography, clerical  work  and  some  book- 
keeping, all  within  their  capabilities.  They 
cared  for  the  grounds,  worked  in  the  gar- 
dens and  prepared  the  food.  Of  course,

understanding  heads  of  departments  who 
could  teach,  guide  and  direct. 

4,000  IN  San  Quentin 
But  today,  San  Quentin  has  four  thou- 
sand inmates.  So  called  "modern  penol- 
ogy" insists  that  over  seven  hundred  free 
personnel,  including  women,  be  rccjuired 
to  do  what  two  hundred  fifty  did  a  few 
years  ago.  And  still  the  cry  is  for  more 
and  more  personnel.  Apparently  the  added 
cost  to  the  taxpayer  does  not  concern  the 
higher-ups  of  the  Department  of  Correc- 
tions. Pay  taxes  until  it  hurts,  seems  to  be 
the  trend,  to  keep  these  civically  unfit 
parasites  in  comtortable  circumstances, 
with  privileges,  care  and  upkeep  which 
many  honest,  hardworking  citizens  can 
not  afford. 

Recently  there  was  a  mild  disturbance 
at  San  Quentin.  It  was  charged  that  some 
of  the  mental  patients  had  not  been  prop- 
erly treated  by  the  psychiatric  staff.  As  a 
result,  there  was  considerable  newspaper 
publicity  about  the  affair.  A  commission 
was  chosen  to  investigate.  A  psychiatrist 
from  the  Federal  Prison  System  was  em- 
ployed to  make  a  sun-ey.  He  made  one  all 
right.  He  came  up  with  the  recommenda- 
tion that  fifty  more  social  workers,  psy- 
chologists, psychiatrists  and  other  super- 
numeraries be  employed  to  augment  the 
seven  hundred  odd  personnel  already  on 
this  staff  of  a  four  thousand  inmate  insti- 
tution. 

Money  Is  Wasted 

After  all,  it  is  a  fair  question  to  ask. 
Does  this  great  expenditure  of  money  on 
top  heavy  personnel  turn  out  better  men 
men   from  prison.'  Does  it  improve  the

inmates?  Does  it  return  to  civil  life  peo- 
ple who  will  mingle  honorably  with  their 
fellow  men,  conduct  themselves  properly 
and  never  return  to  crime?  It  is  my  opin- 
ion, from  an  experience  of  intimately 
dealing  with  this  class  of  society,  that  it 
does  not. 

During  the  sixty  five  hundred  period  of 
prison  population  with  two  hundred  and 
hfty  on  the  staff,  only  FIFTEEN  PER 
CENT  of  the  inmates  who  left  the  prison 
on  parole  returned  to  the  institution  for 
violation.  Now,  as  of  today,  with  all  of 
this  so-called  rehabilitation,  the  number 
of  parolees  who  come  back  to  jail,  and 
usually  within  a  very  short  time  after 
release,  is  well  over  FIFTY  PER  CENT. 
A  comparison  of  these  figures  seems  to 
bear  out  the  futility  of  continually  pamper- 
ing the  inmate,  making  life  for  him  one 
long  holiday  with  very  little  work  to  do, 
excellent  food,  comfortable  housing  and 
all  the  recreation  and  entertainment  he 
wants. 

The  paroled  inmate  is  provided  with 
employment  when  he  is  released  from 
prison.  He  is  carefully  indoctrinated  as  to 
what  he  should  and  should  not  do  when 
he  gets  out.  He  can  always  call  upon  a 
knowing  and  sympathetic  parole  officer  for 
aid  and  advice  should  he  get  in  a  tight 
spot.  He  takes  a  job.  He  does  not  like  it. 
Unfortunately  for  him,  he  has  to  work, 
something  he  seldom  did  in  prison.  He  has 
to  provide  food  and  lodging  for  himself. 
It  is  not  brought  to  him  as  it  was  in  the 
institution.  He  tires  of  being  employed. 
He  begins  to  feel  sorry  for  himself.  He 
thinks  he'll  take  a  little  drink  to  bolster 
up  his  flagging  spirits.  He  takes  a  little 
more  and  takes  it  a  little  more  often.  His 
work  becomes  unsatisfactory. 

Before  long  he  is  fired  and  has  no  job. 
Now,  out  of  work,  the  easiest  thing  to  do 
is  to  steal,  to  rob,  to  pass  a  worthless  check 
or  commit  some  other  illegal  act  which 
could  throw  him  back  into  the  clink.  If 
he  is  not  caught  in  the  act,  he  is  the  win- 
ner. But  if  he  is,  he  will  be  sent  back  to 
the  pen  where  everything  is  provided  for 
him.  And  he  can  take  a  long  rest. 

This  is  no  exaggeration.  This  happens 
every  day. 

I  have  talked  to  these  men  on  their  re- 
turn to  jail.  There  is  no  shame  or  remorse 
on  their  part.  They  have  just  done  a  clever 
trick,  they  think.  They  joke  about  what 
they  call  "rehabitchulation."  They  ridicule 
the  officers  whom  they  think  they  have 
hoodwinked.  And  they  are  the  wise  guys 
who  have  done  what  comes  naturally  and 
the  easiest  for  them. 

So,  don't  pity  the  poor  convict. 

Bad  driving  conditions  prevailed  in  less 
than  15  per  cent  of  the  fatal  highway  ac- 
cidents in  the  U.  S.  in  1957.

VEHICLE  CODE  CHANGES 

Here  are  some  of  the  Vehicle  Code 
Ciian^cs  adopted  by  the  1957  California 
Legislature  and  now  in  effect.  They  in- 
clude: 

Runaway  Vehicles 

Motor  vehicles  that  plunge  down  grades 
because  they  are  improperly  parked  or 
slip  their  brakes  arc  one  of  the  hazards  of 
the  motor  age  in  hilly  or  mountain  com- 
munities. Owners  of  runaway  vehicles 
sometimes  also  fail  to  report  such  acci- 
dents to  the  proper  authorities  and  to  give 
their  name  and  address  to  persons  whose 
property  has  been  damaged. 

The  law  has  been  strengthened  to  make 
it  exceedingly  uncomfortable  for  anyone 
guilty  of  failure  to  make  proper  notifica- 
tions. The  new  law  requires  a  person 
whose  vehicle  escapes  on  a  slope  and 
causes  destruction  to  make  a  full  report 
to  the  police,  sheriff  or  State  Highway 
Patrol  or  be  guilty  of  a  hit-and-run  viola- 
tion. Conviction  for  this  offense  can  bring 
the  maximum  penalties  of  six  months  in 
jailor  $500  fine  or  bodi. 

Cars  Illegally  Parked 

Additions  have  been  made  to  the  law 
granting  authority  to  police  officers  to  re- 
move automobiles,  trucks  or  other  vehicles 
illegally  parked  on  a  highway.  Vehicles 
are  considered  to  be  illegally  parked  and 
subject  to  tow  away  when  they  prevent 
access  by  fire-fighting  equipment  to  a  fire 
hydrant,  obstruct  the  cleaning  of  a  high- 
way or  when  left  unattended  for  more 
than  four  hours  upon  the  right  of  way 
of  any  freeway  within  a  city.

THE  STUDY  OF  CRIMINOLOGY 

The  Journal  takes  pleasure  in  presenting  a  comprehensive  presentation  of  a  Criminology  Program  provided  for  those  desir- 
ing training  for  a  study  of  law  or  social  welfare  or  who  desire  to  fit  themselves  for  law  enforcement  positions.  This  is  the  first  of 
two  articles  prepared  for  the  Journal  by  Morris  Grodsky,  Instructor  in  Criminology  and  Fred  F.  I'itEgerald,  Chairman  of  the 
Department  of  Criminology  at  the  Cit)'  College  of  San  Francisco.  The  College  is  a  pioneer  in  this  study  which  it  has  conducted 
quietly  but  efficiently  for  the  last  decade.  The  first  of  two  articles  follows: 

The  City  College  of  San  Francisco  is  an 
institution  of  higher  learning  offering  two- 
year,  tuition-free,  study  programs  designed 
to  meet  the  needs  of  its  students  and  of 
the  community.  One  of  these  programs 
which  has  been  quietly  performing  this 
designated  function  for  more  than  a  dec- 
ade is  the  Criminology  program.  During 
this  period  of  time,  it  has  met  the  needs  of 
more  than  a  thousand  students  by  prepar- 
ing them  for  entrance  into  various  areas  of 
criminology.  It  has  met  the  needs  of  the 
community  by  contributing  a  large  group 
of  sincere,  well  oriented  candidates  for 
positions  in  the  field  of  law  enforcement. 
In  addition,  it  also  has  met  the  needs  of 
men  already  in  the  field  by  providing  in- 
formation and  skills  valuable  for  advance- 
ment and  for  more  effective  performance 
of  duty. 

It  is  of  historical  interest  to  note  that 
the  Criminology  Program  of  City  College 
can  qualify  as  a  pioneer  among  two-year 
colleges  in  its  area  of  training.  The  course 
was  organized  in  1939  under  the  coopera- 
tive sponsorship  of  the  San  Francisco  Po- 
lice Department,  the  Civil  Service  Com- 
mission of  San  Francisco,  and  the  San 
Francisco  Public  Schools.  Instrumental  in 
this  early  development  were  William  J. 
Quinn,  then  Chief  of  Police,  William 
Henderson  of  the  Civil  Service  Commis- 
sion, and  Dr.  Archie  Cloud,  then  Presi- 
dent of  the  College.  The  advent  of  World 
War  II  and  the  subsequent  loss  of  male 
students  resulted  in  a  discontinuance  of 
the  course.  In  1947,  however,  the  program 
was  reinstituted  under  the  direction  of 
Fred  F.  Fitzgerald,  and  has  been  function- 
ing continuously  since  then. 

Many  Objectives 

Questions  are  often  asked  of  the  people

in  the  Criminology  Department  regarding 
the  nature  of  the  courses  which  are  offered 
and  regarding  the  goals  of  the  students 
who  are  taking  the  courses.  Essentially 
these  are  questions  concerning  the  objec- 
tive of  the  program.  A  summary  statement 
indicates  that  rather  than  a  single  objective 
there  are  many,  and  that  these  objectives 
provide  the  basis"  for  a  broad  range  of  sub- 
ject matter. 

The  Criminology  Program  provides 
training  for  those  who  wish  to  prepare 
themseh'es  for  la'n'  enforcement  and  cor- 
rectional work;  for  those  who  desire  a 
background  of  training  in  criminology  in 
preparation  for  a  study  of  law  or  ^social 
welfare;  for  those  who  are  presently  em- 
ployed with  a  law  enforcement  or  correc- 
tional agency  and  who  wish  to  prepare  for 
advancement  in  their  particular  assign- 
ments; and  for  those  who  desire  an  under- 
standing of  the  crime  problem  as  a  tool 
for  effective  citizenship. 

With  the  realization  that  there  is  no 
single  objective,  it  is  understandable  that 
there  is  no  single  type  of  student.  Those 
in  the  program  vary  greatly  in  background 
and  in  the  goals  they  seek.  A  number  of 
the  students  who  have  completed  the 
course  go  directly  into  the  many  agencies 
of  law  enforcement,  correction,  and  secvir- 
ity.  Others  continue  in  similar  or  related 
programs  at  state  colleges  or  universities. 
Arts  Degree 

The  City  College  offers  the  Associate  of 
Arts  Degree  for  which  a  minimum  of  60 
semester  units  must  be  completed.  This 
ordinarily  will  require  four  semesters  or 
two  years  to  accomplish.  At  least  20  of 
these  units  must  be  in  the  field  of  crimi- 
nology. Candidates  must  also  maintain  an 
a\'erage  grade  of  C  for  all  courses  taken  in

FIRST  AID  EXAMINATION  QUESTIONS 

In  answer  to  numerous  requests  from  law  enforcement  oflicers  preparing  themselves  for  promotional  examinations,  the 
Journal  presents  herein  a  number  of  pertinent  problems  on  first  aid.  The  list  has  been  prepared  for  this  magazine  by  the 
San  Francisco  Chapter  of  the  American  Red  Cross,  whose  courtesy  is  appreciated.  Answers  will  be  found  on  page  6. 


1.  Define  First  Aid. 

2.  In  case  of  serious  injury,  five  things 
should  be  done.  What  sequence  of 
action  should  the  first  aider  take? 

3.  List  urgent  first  aid  where  each  second 
of  delay  is  important.  There  are  three 
parts  to  the  answer. 

4.  What  are  the  objectives  of  wound 
care?  Reply  in  two  parts. 

5.  List  the  four  types  of  wounds. 

6.  Describe  the  location  of  the  two 
points  on  each  side  of  the  body  where 
pressure  against  the  blood  vessel  is  of 
occasional  practical  use. 

7.  What  is  the  objective  of  shock  treat- 
ment? 

8.  Mark  the  symptoms  of  shock. 
(     )  eyes  lack  luster. 

(     )   pupils  lack  luster. 

(     )   breathing  deep. 

(     )   breathing  shallow. 

(     )   pulse  strong. 

(     )   pulse  weak. 

(     )   skin  pale,  cold,  moist. 

(      )   skin  red,  warm,  dry. 

9.  Mark  T  (true)  or  F  (false) : 

In  shock  it  is  better  if  victim  is 

slightly  cool  rather  than  toasting 
warm. 

In  shock  stimulants  such  as  am- 
monia and  coffee  have  value. 

Hurried  first  aid  are  the  words 

to  associate  with  poison  by  mouth. 

A  good  universal  antidote  for 

poison  consists  of  a  mixture  of  tea 
and  milk  of  magnesia  and  burned 
toast. 

One  should  induce  vomiting  in 

kerosene  poisoning. 

What  is  the  objective  of  first  aid  care

the  three  main  objectives? 

12.  What  are  five  heart  attack  symptoms  ? 

13.  When  the  cause  of  unconsciousness  is 
unknown,  the  first  aider  may  classify 
this  into  two  general  groups  for  pur- 
poses of  giving  first  aid.  List  the  two 
groups. 

14.  What  are  the  two  objectives  of  first 
aid  care  for  transporting  injured  per- 
sonnel. ? 

15.  Mark  T  (true)  or  F  (false)  : 

(  )  It  is  advisable  to  plan  for  trans- 
portation. 

(     )   Injured   persons  often   benefit 
from  rest  before  transfer. 
(     )   Harm  to  victims  usually  comes

TRAILER  WARNING 

The  California  Highway  Patrol  warns 
that  45  miles  per  hour  is  the  maximum 
legal  speed  for  vehicles  towing  trailers  on 
public  streets  and  highways. 

"The  45-mile  maximum  ipeed  limit  ap- 
plies to  all  passenger  motor  vehicles  re- 
gardless of  weight  or  commercial  motor 
vehicles  weighing  less  than  4,000  pounds 
when  towing  any  trailer  coach,  trailer, 
semi-trailer,  or  other  type  vehicle,"  stated 
Patrol  Commissioners.  R.  Caldwell.  "This 
regulation  applies  to  both  owners  of  trail- 
ers and  persons  who  rent  trailers  and  tow 
them  on  any  roadway. 

"This  limit  of  45  miles-per-hour  is  a 
maximum  limit,  not  prima  facie,  and  is 
subject  to  other  and  more  restrictive  limits 
set  forth  in  the  Vehicle  Code,"  Caldwell 
explained.  "Drivers  desiring  to  draw  any 
trailer  behind  their  car  should  review  all 
the  rules  and  regulations  regarding  such 
action." 


A  grand  total  of  513,939,100  vehicles 
had  passed  over  the  San  Francisco-Oakland 
Bay  Bridge  as  of  April  30,  1958,  reports 
the  National  Automobile  Club.

HELPFUL  QUESTIONS  FOR  EXAMINATIONS 


Herein  is  contained  another  of  a  series  of  questions  and  answers  pertinent  to  Police  training  and  helpful  in  promotional 
examinations.  These  questions  and  answers  are  supplied  to  the  Journal,  as  a  service  to  law  enforcement  officers  through- 
out the  state,  by  E.  D.  Kerkhoven,  director  of  the  Peace  Officer  Training  Service  in  Oakland.  The  questions  are  selected  to 
test  the  reader's  knowledge  of  various  phases  of  law  enforcement.  Each  question  has  a  number  of  suggested  answers, 
labeled  1,  2,  3,  etc.  You  decide  which  is  the  best  answer  to  the  question  asked  and  then  encircle  the  number.  When  you 
have  completed  the  test,  compare  your  answers  with  the  KEY  on  page  12. 


1.  You  are  called  on  the  complaint  that 
a  woman  in  an  apartment  goes  on  ram- 
pages in  which  she  sings  wildly  and 
breaks  up  the  furniture.  It  appears  that  she 
doesn't  drink  and  when  you  meet  the 
lady  she  immediately  l.iunihcs  into  a  fan- 
tastic and  elaborate  plan  for  reform  of 
the  polite  department.  You  should  con- 
clude that:  (1)  The  woman  is  hysterical 
and  should  be  left  alone;  (2)  Her  actions 
grow  out  of  some  severe  form  of  domes- 
tic discord;  (3)  She  is  probably  a  cise  of 
paranoia;  (4)  She  will  be  likely  to  com- 
mit some  criminal  act;  (5)  She  is  prob- 
ably a  manic  depressive  case  and  would 
be  reported  to  the  psychopathic  division 
for  observation. 

2.  In  order  to  compare  the  relative  effi- 
ciency of  the  patrol  division  of  a  police 
department  by  means  of  crime  indices  in 
their  respective  divisions  it  would  be  most 
desirable  to  consider  in  addition  their 
relative:  (I)  Areas;  (2)  Crime  rates;  (3) 
Work  loads;  (4)  Arrest  records;  (5) 
Traffic  problems. 

3.  The  efficiency  of  a  beat  patrolman 
can  best  be  measured  by  comparing  his 
record  with  that:  (1)  Of  other  patrol- 
men on  other  beats;  (2)  Of  other  patrol- 
men on  the  same  beat  on  different  watches; 
(4)  Which  would  be  expected  on  the 
beat  in  view  of  an  analysis  of  past  records

and  current  trends;  (5)  Which  would  re- 
flect an  ideal  performance  on  the  beat. 

4.  The  efficiency  of  a  juvenile  officer 
is  best  measured  by;  (1)  "The  amount  of 
delinquency  in  his  district;  (2)  Relative 
amount  of  delintjutncy  in.  his  district  as 
compared  to  other  districts;  (3)  Ratio  of 
juvenile  detentions  to  juvenile  complaints; 
(4)  General  trend  of  all  crime  in  his  dis- 
trict over  a  period  of  years;  (5)  Analysis 
of  dispositions  of  individual  cases  he  has 
handled. 

^ .  The  best  method  of  comparing  com- 
manding officers  of  the  same  rank  on  the 
basis  of  the  discipline  they  maintain  is  to 
note  in  each  case  the:  (1)  Number  of 
punishments   imposed;    (2)    Number  of

disciplinary  cases  which  reach  the  person- 
nel bureau;  (3)  Nature  of  their  personal 
relationsships  with  the  men;  (4)  The  de- 
gree to  which  rules  and  regulations  are 
observed;  (5)  Amount  of  friction  in  their 
respective  divisions. 

6.  Of  the  following  the  best  way  to 
determine  the  degree  of  cooperation  be- 
tween the  records  bureau  and  line  officers 
would  be:  (1)  Ask  the  opinion  of  a 
sampling  of  line  officers;  (2)  Ask  the 
opinion  of  the  records  bureau  personnel; 
(3)  Check  the  number  of  complaints  of 
line  officers  against  the  bureau  and  vice 
versa;  (4)  Check,  through  case  records, 
the  number  of  times  records  were  used  as 
against  the  number  of  times  they  should 
have  been  used;  (5)  Send  out  a  question- 
naire to  determine  the  officer's  attitude 
toward  and  knowledge  of  the  bureau. 

7.  The  desirabliity  of  having  a  special 
detail  for  a  certain  type  of  enforcement 
might  best  be  measured  in  terms  of  the; 
( 1 )  Effect  on  the  particular  type  of  crime

which  it  is  concerned;  (2)  Effect  of  this 
arrangement  on  the  general  crime  rate; 
(3)  Efficiency  of  other  types  of  enforce- 
ment for  the  same  type  of  crime;  (4)  Rel- 
ative importance  of  the  type  of  crime  in- 
volved; (5)  Effect  on  public  opinion  of 
this  type  of  enforcement. 

8.  The  best  measure  of  public  opinion 
of  the  police  department  may  be  obtained 
by:  (1)  Noting  the  tone  of  an  adequate 
sample  of  newspaper  articles;  (2)  Keep- 
ing a  check  on  the  number  of  complaints 
and  comments  of  police  work  which  come 
in;  (3)  The  daily  contacts  of  uniformed 
police  officers  with  the  public;  (4)  The 
observation  of  plain  clothes  men  making 
a  controlled  check;  (5)  Degree  to  which 
the  civil  population  voluntarily  cooperate 
with  the  police  department  in  the  per- 
formance of  their  duty. 

9.  In  order  to  determine  whether  motor 
patrol  is  superior  to  foot  patrol,  for  a 
certain  area,  it  would  be  best  to  compare 
the  two  systems  on  the  basis  of:  (1) 
Crime  indices  disregarding  the  number 
of  officers  (2)  The  amount  of  time  per 
officers  spent  in  actual  performance  of 
police  work;  (3)  The  number  of  officers 
required  to  cover  the  area  a  certain  num- 
ber of  times  (4)  The  total  number  of  ar- 
rests per  officer;  (5)  The  cost  in  officers 
and  equipment  required  to  achieve  a  cer- 
tain level  of  enforcement. 

10.  The  best  measure  of  the  results  of 
a  formal  training  program  are :  ( 1 )  Final 
test  scores  received;  (2)  Differences  in 
performance  of  duty  between  officers  who

WHAT  SPEED  IS  SAFE?

Train-car  crashes  killed  1,330  persons 
in  the  United  States  during  1937,  accord-

There  is  much  misunderstanding  about 
what  is  a  safe  speed  to  drive  on  the  high- 
way. Most  drivers  are  not  qualilied  to 
drive  over  40  to  50  miles  per  hour  on  dry 
roads.  This  may  sound  like  a  radical  state- 
ment but  we  are  convinced  that  it  is  true. 
An  increase  in  speed  from  around  50 
miles  per  hour  on  the  average  to  around 
58  miles  per  hour  in  the  State  of  Iowa  has 
been  accompanied  by  an  increase  of  about 
25  per  cent  fatalities.  Some  drivers  can 
possibly  drive  at  this  rate  but  it  takes  ex- 
treme caution  .and  good  judgment  to  do 
so.  At  least  95  per  cent  of  drivers  should 
keep  their  speed  down  well  around  50 
miles  per  hour  if  they  expect  to  stay  out 
of  serious  accidents. 

The  trouble  usually  comes  at  emergency 
points  when  a  driver  attempts  to  pass  at  a 
dangerous  place,  or  move  through  stop 
lights  or  stop  signs  at  too  high  a  rate.  These 
practices  cause  him  to  spend  more  time  on 
the  wrong  side  of  the  road,  every  second 
of  which  is  dangerous.

Another  item  that  should  be  considered 
is  following  distance.  According  to  some     [ 
state  laws  it  is  permissible  to  follow  at  a     i 
distance  twice  the  car  length  for  each.  10     I 
miles  per  hour  of  speed.  This  is  extremely 
dangerous  at  speeds  40  to  60  miles  per 
hour.  The  reason  is  that  the  stopping  dis- 
tance increases  as  the  square  of  the  speed. 
Laws  should  be  changeci  which  are  worded 
so  as  to  encourage  rather  than  discourage 
hazardous  practices.  .  .  .  Driving  Research

NEW  JAIL  FOR  EUREKA 


Humboldt  Count)-  will  have  a  new  S3,- 
330,000  courthouse  and  jail  located  in 
Eureka,  California,  by  October,  1959. 
Ground  was  broken  and  construction  was 
begun  in  May. 

One  out-of-the-ordinary  feature  of  the 
building  is  that  there  will  be  law  enforce- 
ment and  jail  facilities  for  both  the  county 
of  Humboldt  and  the  City  of  Eureka,  The 
county  jail  space  will  accommodate  285 
inmates,  while  the  city  holding  jail  and 
police  facility  will  have  a  capacity  of  40 
inmates. 

Public  main  entrance  to  sheriff  and  po- 
lice law  enforcement  areas  (which  can 
operate  entirely  separately  from  the  court- 
house proper)  is  open  24  hours  a  day. 

Other  mutually  used  facilities  shared 
by  sheriff's  and  police  departments  are  an 
8-station  pistol  range  with  classroom  for 
juvenile  instruction,  reloading,  etc.;  a 
separate  garage  with  prisoner  intake  sal-

ley-port,  radio  rc|\iir  shop  and  bicycle 
storage;  and  a  gymnasium.  Also  mutually 
used  arc  the  segregated  prisoner  categories 
of  female  and  juvenile,  as  well  as  food 
preparation  facilities. 

TV  Monitor  Installed 

A  closed  circuit  television  system  mon- 
itoring the  basement  salley-port  from  the 
police  and  sheriffs  control  desk  is  also 
provided  for. 

There  will  be  two  separate  basement 
garages:  One  for  law  enforcement  vehi- 
cles and  one  for  service  and  county  vehi- 
cles. Garages  are  planned  for  future  ex- 
pansion by  tunnel  under  the  street  to  the 
basement  of  a  future  county  building  op- 
posite. 

A  county  bond  issue  of  $3-million  to- 
gether with  the  City  of  Eureka's  pro-rata 
share  of  $300,000  is  financing  the  joint 
project. 

The  new  courthouse  will  have  another 
unique  feature:  a  radiation-proof  room 
locateii  underground  which  will  house  the 
nerve-center  communications  headquarters 
of  the  Civil  Defense  Agency.  This  is  the 
first  such  center  in  the  state.  It  is  so  de- 
signed as  to  relate  effectively  to  the  ad- 
jacent city  and  county  operations  and  has 
available  to  it  the  two  garage  spaces  as 
mass  public  shelter.

In  the  courthouse,  too,  will  be  county 
administrative  and  fiscal  offices,  court- 
rcwms  and  judicial  departments,  the  coun- 
ty library,  school  department,  etc.,  as  well 
as  a  large  employees'  lounge  and  lunch 
room. 

The  construction  of  the  Humboldt 
County  Courthouse  will  be  reinforced  con- 
crete, five  stories  and  basement  with  three 
elevators. 

Maximum  Flexibility 

Office  areas  will  be  practically  free  of 
permanent  interior  walls.  Rather,  there 
will  be  movable  partitions  to  give  maxi- 
mum flexibility  and  changeability  to  the 
areas.  This  is  possible  because  of  a  co- 
ordinated mechanical-electrical  underfloor 
and  ceiling  system. 

Office  windows  will  have  aluminum 
sash  which  can  be  washed  from  the  inside. 
Jail  windows  will  be  glass  block  set  into 
a  hidden  security  steel  grid. 

The  structure,  designed  by  Mitchell 
Van  Bourg  and  Associates  of  Berkeley, 
California,  is  planned  for  the  future  addi- 
tion of  a  sixth  floor  for  which  wall  col- 
umns and  roof  beams  are  to  be  built  now 
to  surround  a  roof  exercise  deck  for  pris- 
oners. 

The  contractor  on  the  project  is  the 
Dinwiddie  Construction  Company  of  San 
Francisco. 

Mr.  Van  Bourg  is  a  member  of  the 
American  Institute  of  Architects  and  has 
worked  on  the  Stanislaus  County  Jail,  the 
Santa  Clara  County  Jail,  both  completed, 
as  well  as  current  studies  for  Napa  Coun- 
ty Jail  and  numerous  juvenile  detention 
facilities.

SIGN  OF  PROSPERITY 


Taxable  distributions  of  gasoline  and 
other  high-test  motor  vehicle  fuel  in  Cali- 
fornia during  April  amounted  to  423,716,- 
000  gallons,  according  to  George  R.  Reilly, 
Chairman  of  the  State  Board  of  Equaliza- 
tion. This  volume — greater  by  7.4  million 
gallons,  or  1.8  per  cent,  than  the  April 
1957  figure — represents  the  largest  April 
distribution  on  record.  During  the  first  ten 
months  of  the  fiscal  year  ending  June  30, 
1958,  taxable  sales  of  gasoline  apparently 
kept  pace  with  the  State's  population 
growth. 

Gross  revenues  derived  from  April  dis- 
tributions amounted  to  $25,422,955.  Dur- 
ing the  month  under  review.  Controller 
Robert  C.  Kirkwood  allowed  claims  for 
$1,681,588,  arising  from  the  purchase  of 
slightly  more  than  28  million  gallons  of 
high-test  fuel  for  non-highway  use  on 
which  the  6-cent  gasoline  tax  had  been 
paid.  The  remaining  $23,741,367  will  be 
used  to  extend,  improve,  and  maintain 
California's  outstanding  network  of  state 
highways,  county  roads,  and  city  streets. 
It  is  estimated  that  these  facilities  are  pres- 
ently serving  about  5,575,000  automobiles. 
790,000  trucks,  and  45,000  motorcycles  of 
California  registry  and  additional  hun- 
dreds of  thousands  of  out-of-state  vehicles. 

Not  included  in  the  above  figures  are 
more  than  95  million  gallons  of  fuel  dis- 
tributed in  April  that  were  not  subject  to 
the  6-cent  tax.  Making  up  this  total  were 
more  than  35  million  gallons  of  fuel  ex- 
ported from  the  State,  more  than  23  mil- 
lion gallons  delivered  to  the  Armed  Forces 
for  use  in  military  air  and  water  craft,  al- 
most 15  million  gallons  consumed  by  air- 
craft manufacturers  and  certificated  air 
lines  which  are  licensed  as  fuel  distribu- 
tors, and  nearly  22  million  gallons  used 
for  other  non-highway  purposes. 

MAKE  ALLOWANCES 

Even  if  you  are  a  good  driver  there  are 
others  out  on  the  highway  that  are  not, 
reminds  the  California  State  Automobile 
Association.  Be  prepared  to  make  allow- 
ances for  mistakes  of  other  drivers.

2700  AGGREGATE  MATCHES 


Just  in  case  you  have  forgotten,  let  me 
quickly  brief  you  on  the  Oakland  2700 
aggregate  matches.  These  were  started 
three  years  ago  and  ha\c  proved  very  pop- 
ular, drawing  shooters  from  all  parts  of 
the  state.  This  is  the  Western  Revolver 
Association  Match,  sponsored  by  the  Oak- 
land Pistol  Club  and  is  an  NRA  approved 
tournament.  The  matches  ran  for  two 
days,  Saturday  and  Sunday,  June  7  and  8. 
(Confidentially,  I  missed  my  cue  some- 
where along  the  line  and  showed  up  at 
the  range  on  June  1 — just  a  week  too 
early.  Eager  beaver  me!) 

Then  came  a  big  beef  when  many  new 
shooters  had  no  classifications  and  had  to 
shoot  "Expert "  for  the  first  160  shots  and 
380  shots  above  that  for  Master  Shooting 
But  the  office  gang  soon  had  the  beefing 
competitors  well  in  hand  and  I  know  of 
only  one  shooter  who  wouldn't  take  the 
expert  class.  He  went  home.  There  were 
seven  matches  Saturday,  including  the 
team  matches,  eight  on  Sunday  and  five 
aggregate  matches.  The  top  aggregate 
match  was  won  by  Bob  Chow,  the  shoot- 
ing gunsmith  from  San  Francisco  with  a 
total  score  of  2589. 

The  medals  and  trophies  were  real  out- 
standing and  well  worth  the  winning. 

That  Pizza  Pie 

The  gals  in  the  statistical  office  were 
sure  on  the  ball  for  the  two  days  shoot  and 
it  wasn't  until  late  Sunday  night,  by  the 
light  of  the  moon,  when  the  final  tabula- 
tion was  tabulated.  But  as  everyone  had 
gone  home  it  wasn't  any  use  to  put  the 
results  on  the  bulletin  board — besides  it 
was  still  raining.  During  the  day  the  said 
gals  were  loading  up  on  soda  pop  and 
pizza  pie  and  it's  our  hunch  the  pizza  pie 
slowed  the  crew  down  considerable.  Any- 
how, it  was  a  tuff  assignment  and  very 
well  done. 

During  the  two-day  shoot  there  were 
some  230  pistoleers  on  the  lines  with  Sat-

urday  a  nice  clear  day.  But  Sunday  the 
boys  were  shooting  in  a  drizzle  that  occa- 
sionally turned  into  rain,  thus  giving  the 
boys  plenty  of  alibis  for  poor  shooting. 
But  after  the  wetness  dried  up.  Bob  Chow 
took  home  the  top  aggregate  prize  for  the 
best  shooter.   In  second   place  was   Milt

Klipfel  of  the  Highway  Patrol  Team,  with 
a  score  of  2574  and  following  in  third 
place  was  Matt  Pimentel  with  a  2553.  Sat- 
urday matches  were  won  by  Milt  Klipfcl 
with  the  top  score,  with  a  ,45  cannon,  for 
an  857  while  Bob  Chow  took  the  .22  ag- 
gregate with  an  879  and  the  center-fire 
aggregate  went  again  to  Chow  with  a  1736. 

Match  Well  Run 

As  usual,  the  matches  were  run  off  as 
slick  as  a  whistle  and  from  what  I  gather

were  well  pleased  and  wishing  they  could 
have  a  2700  twice  a  year. 

There  were  16  matches,  including  three 
aggregates  and  each  class  has  now  been 
divided  into  the  "pro"  group  and  the  reg- 
ular but  in  order  to  save  space  and  wear 
and  tear  on  the  eyes  I  am  only  setting 
down  the  top  shooter  in  each  division  and 
as  it  is,  it's  a  lengthy  tabulation. 

The  team  matches  were  a  spirited  affair 
with  many  side  bets  being  made  but  I  do 
not  know  how  they  came  out  or  whether 
anyone  really  collected.  I  do  know  that  the 
California  Highway  Patrol  team  won  the 
.22  caliber  and  the  center-fire  caliber  tro- 
phies while  the  S.  F.  Police  Team  #2 
waltzed  away  with  the  .45  team  njatch. 
The  scores,  respectively,  were  1150,  1127 
and  1127. 

On  Honeymoon 

So  one  of  the  Oakland  Club,  Bill  Davis 
by  name,  gets  hisself  married  and  for  his 
honeymoon  hies  the  bride  to  the  matches 
at  San  Diego.  This  was  all  a  deep,  dark 
secret  because  he  was  afraid  someone 
would  have  asked  to  go  along  with  him — 
just  for  the  ride  down,  yuh  know! 

And  at  the  San  Diego  Regionals,  the 
California  Hiway  Patrol  team  won  the  .38 
National  team  match.  Then  Bob  Thomas 
shoots  a  nice  slow  fire  in  another  match 
with  a  99  and  from  then  on  he  might  just 
as  well  have  been  at  Santa  Anita  — if'n 
they  were  running. 

I  heard  the  official  referee  complaining 
that  he  was  doggone  tired  of  straightening 
out  beefs  between  shooters  who  had  the 
extremely  bad  habit  of  shooting  on  any 
target  but  their  own. 

Col.  Englehart  says  it  is  always  a  good 
idea  to  see  that  the  shooting  tools  are  in 
operable  order  the  night  before  the 
matches  so  there  will  be  no  chance  for 
misfires  and  the  other  odd  happenings 
that  befall  a  shooter.  Accordingly,  he  takes 
out  the  .45  cannon,  pulls  back  the  slide

And  that's  wot  the  man  said ! ! 
Too  Much  Rain 

Saturday  was  a  nice  day  for  the  starting 
of  the  2700  aggregate  matches  and  brought 
out  a  nice  crowd  but  on  Sunday  the  rain 
took  over  and  just  about  ruined  the  matches 
and  the  scores.  "Abe"  Davis,  San  Diego 
Police  Department  sergeant  in  charge  of 
their  pistol  range,  chickened  out  witii  his 
team  and  pulled  out  early  Sunday  morning 
"goin"  back  to  the  sunny  southland,"  sez 
the  sergeant. 

Ted  Methot,  of  the  Immigrant  Security 
squad,  was  all  set  to  grab  the  medal  for 
first  place  in  the  timed-fire  .45  match,  then 
found  out  that  Pimental  creedmored  him 
into  second  spot.  Ted,  being  a  mild  sort  of 
a  guy,  looked  a  bit  astonished  when  he 
heard  the  news  and  broke  out  with  an  ex- 
plosive, "My  goodness!!"  Lois  Bowes 
took  the  open  class  .45  medal,  at  least  that 
is  what  she  thought  but  she,  too,  found 
she  was  creedmored  into  second  place  but 
what  she  said  I  do  not  know  as  I  was  not 
around  at  the  time.  But  I'll  bet  it  was  a  bit 
stronger  than  "my  goodness!" 

Who  Is  Lonesome? 

Sim  Reinhart,  the  two-handed  shooter 
from  Redwood  City,  was  informed  that  if 
he  changed  hands  during  the  match  he 
would  be  disqualified  so  immediately 
asked  for  a  10^^  discount  on  the  entrance 
fee  and  match  fees.

ODD  AUTO  INVENTIONS 


For  the  past  60  or  70  years  the  Ameri- 
can automobile  has  served  as  a  constant 
source  of  inspiration  for  American  inven- 
tors. Some  of  these  inventors,  according 
to  the  National  Automobile  Club,  have 
come  through  with  some  rather  odd  in- 
ventions. And  for  quite  a  number  of  these 
odd  inventions,  the  United  States  Patent 
Office  has  come  through  with  patents. 

During  the  1890s,  people  were  a  little 
leer)'  about  riding  in  anything  that  didn't 
have  a  horse  in  front  of  it,  so  a  man  in 
Chicago  invented  a  mechanical  horse  for

those  horseless  carriages.  It  was  life  size, 
covered  with  hide  to  fool  even  the  other 
horses,  and  ran  along  on  wheels  in  front 
of  the  carriage. 

By  1907,  people  had  gotten  over  their 
no-horse  phobia  and  had  moved  on  to  a 
mechanical-breakdown  phobia,  so  a  man 
in  Brooklyn  invented  a  car  that  could 
serve  as  its  own  packing  case.  If  this  car 
broke  down,  you  just  folded  it  into  the 
neat  form  of  a  box,  put  a  couple  of  bolts 
in  the  right  places,  then  shipped  it  off  to 
the  nearest  garage  or  to  your  home.  ^ 

The  safety  minded,  of  course,  we've 
had  with  us  always.  A  man  in  Utah  felt 
that  he  could  eliminate  dirty  goggles,  dirty 
windshields  and  at  the  same  time  protect 
the  driver  from  dirt,  dust,  rocks,  hail,  and 
the  like  by  mounting  two  giant  fans  on 
the  front  end  of  the  car.  These  fans 
rotated  so  fast  that  they  didn't  interfere 
with  your  vision  but  they  did  interfere 
with  the  rocks. 

In  New  Jersey,  another  inventor  really 
went  all  out  for  the  pedestrians.  He  in- 
vented a  strange  assemblage  of  cogs  and 
levers  that  were  triggered  by  the  impact 
of  the  pedestrian  against  the  front  of  the 
car.  At  the  moment  of  collision,  this 
gadget  shot  a  large  rubber  blanket  out  in 
front  of  the  car.  When  the  pedestrian  fell, 
he  fell  on  the  blanket,  didn't  hurt  himself 
too  much,  and  didn't  soil  his  Sunday 
clothes. 

In  contrast  to  the  safety-minded  school 
of  inventors  there's  the  live-dangerously 
or  get-rid-of-your-mother-in-law  fast 
school.  The  leading  exponent  of  this 
school  probably  is  the  man  who  invented 
a  gadget  that,  when  you  pressed  a  button 
near  the  steering  wheel,  caused  your  car 
to  turn  a  complete  somersault  in  mid 
flight.  This  invention  hasn't  proved  to  be 
too  salable  since  most  modern  motorists 
feel  that  they  can  do  this  somersault  trick 
without  benefit  of  any  buttons.

SAVE  GASOLINE 

Racing  a  cold  engine  consumes  an  ex- 
cessive amount  of  gasoline,  says  the  Cali- 
fornia State  Automobile  Association.  It 
could  also  be  harmful  to  some  of  the  mov- 
ing parts  of  the  engine.  To  achieve  max- 
imum fuel  economy,  start  and  stop 
smoothly  and  keep  your  car's  engine  prop- 
erly tuned,  and,  of  course,  don't  race  the 
engine  when  it  is  cold.

thoughtlessness  could  be  embar- 
rassing, but  the  oversight  can  be 
quickly  and  completely  rectified. 
If  you  ate  careless  with  fire,  your 
thoughlessness  could  cost  you 
your  shitt  too,  and  it  may  take 
over  100  years  to  rectify  the  dam- 
age. No  good  citizen  wants  to 
believe  that  HE  caused  a  forest 
fire.  Yet  9  out  of  10  forest  fires 
are  man-caused.  Be  doubly  care- 
ful this  year.

HOOVER  ON  JUVENILE  CRIME 


The  growing  menace  of  youthful  depre- 
dation is  the  core  of  the  crime  cancer  in 
America.  The  avalanche  of  juvenile  crimes 
increasing  not  only  in  numbers  but  also  in 
viciousness,  has  brought  misery  and  de- 
struction to  communities  throughout  the 
land.  Almost  46  per  cent  of  the  persons 
arrested  for  major  crimes  are  under  18 
years  of  age.  Since  1952,  while  population 
in  the  10-17  age  group  has  increased  only 
14  per  cent,  arrests  in  those  same  age 
brackets  have  mounted  42  per  cent. 

Children  are  not  born  bad.  Lacking 
spiritual  guidance  and  moral  training  in 
the  home  during  early  years,  youngsters 
generally  develop  badness  and  mature  into 
teen-age  terrors  through  parental  negli- 
gence. Such  irresponsibility  on  the  part  of 
parents  is  a  crime  against  society.  Cer- 
tainly, it  is  only  sensible  to  hold  the  par- 
ents of  youthful  vandals  and  hoodlums 
legally  and  financially  accountable  for  the 
crimes  of  their  offspring. 

The  vast  majority  of  our  youngsters  are 
upright,  wholesome  citizens.  Unfortunate- 
ly, the  public  reputation  of  the  entire  group 
of  American  youth  is  too  frequently  jeop- 
ardized by  the  vicious  acts  of  the  relatively 
small  percentage  of  youthful  hoodlums. 
Individually  and  in  gangs,  however,  these 
teen-age  criminals  commit  some  of  the 
most  violent  crimes  of  the  day. 

The  recent  scourge  of  street  "mugging," 
sex  attacks,  bodily  assaults,  murder,  and

other  carnage  by  young  criminals  across 
the  country,  demands  a  reappraisal  of  the 
ugly  reality  which  is  juvenile  crime. 

What  a  lancifui  Hight  of  imagination 
it  takes  to  label  such  crimes  "juvenile  de- 
linquency!" The  present  youth  |-)robiem 
does  not  involve  child  pranksters  and  mis- 
chief-makers. The  real  terror  today  conies 
from  the  vicious  juvenile  criminal.  Soft 
justice  and  unwarr.mted  leniency  merely 
encourage  these  young  thugs  in  disdain  for 
lawful  authority. 

We  can  no  longer  afford  to  let  "tender 
age"  make  plunder  into  a  trifling  prank, 
reduce  mayhem  to  a  mischievous  act,  and 
pass  off  murder  as  a  boyish  misdemeanor. 


This  distorted  notion  of  justice  has  even 
permeated  our  court  system.  In  all  too 
many  instances  the  law  has  been  bent  to 
favor  the  criminal  at  the  expense  of  the 
rights  of  his  innocent  victims. 

The  battle  against  juvenile  violence 
must  be  waged  by  the  mothers,  fathers, 
and  all  adult  citizens  of  America  who 
share  responsibilities  for  youth.  The  time 
lor  theories  and  test-tube  treatment  is  past. 
Only  fair  but  stern  action  against  delin- 
quent parents  and  snarling  young  thugs 
can  bring  a  halt  to  the  present  plague  of 
youthful  lawlessness.

LOOK  OUT  FOR  BEES 


Ever  since  the  first  few  horseless  car- 
riages started  chugging  and  sputtering 
along  our  highways,  angry  farmers  and 
other  responsible  citizens  have  been  think- 
ing up  laws  to  try  to  keep  the  motorists  in 
line.  Some  of  these  laws,  points  out  the 
National  Automobile  Club,  have  been 
quite  quaint  and  some  of  these  quaint  laws 
are  still  on  the  books. 

Take,  for  instance,  the  law  in  Lawrence, 
Kansas.  It  says  that  you  can't  drive  along 
the  street  with  bees  in  your  bonnet — real 
bees,  that  is. 

In  Utah  the  right  of  way  is  always 
strictly  for  the  birds.  Take  it  away  from 
the  littlest  chickadee  and  you're  in  for 
trouble. 

In  Memphis,  Tennessee,  you'd  better 
not  let  the  local  officer  catch  you  driving 
along  while  you're  asleep.  There's  a  law 
against  that. 

In  the  early  days  in  Pennsylvania  the 
angry  farmers  formed  the  Anti-Automo- 
bile Society  and  that  group  drew  up  some 
fancy  rules.  Any  motorist  driving  along  a 
country  road  at  night  was  obliged  to  stop 
every  mile,  send  up  a  signal  rocket,  wait 
ten  minutes  for  the  road  to  be  cleared,  and 
then  proceed  with  caution.  Any  motorist 
who  sighted  a  team  of  horses  coming 
towards  him  had  to  pull  well  off  the  road, 
cover  his  car  with  a  blanket  or  canvas  that 


blended  with  the  surrounding  countryside, 
and  let  the  horses  pass.  If  the  horses  were 
skittish  and  wouldn't  pass,  the  motorist 
had  to  take  his  car  apart  piece  by  piece 
and  hide  the  pieces  under  the  nearest 
bush. 

In  Trenton,  Missouri,  it's  against  the 
law  to  drive  an  automobile  after  dark. 

In  Green  Bay,  'Wisconsin,  let  your  car 
drip  some  oil  on  the  pavement  and  you're 
apt  to  be  fined  something  like  five  dollars 
per  drip. 

In  one  small  New  England  town  they 
really  tried  to  pull  a  fast  one  on  the  fast 
drivers.  The  local  constable  posted  a  sign 
that  read:  "The  speed  limit  this  year  is  a 
secret.  Motorists  breaking  it  will  be  fiied 
ten  dollars." 

These  laws  are  on  the  quaint  side,  but 
in  many  parts  of  the  country  today  you'd 
better  heed  them  if  you  want  to  stay  on 
the  right  side  of  the  law.

OAKLAND  PISTOL  MATCHES 


Despite  the  fact  that  the  regional 
matches  were  being  held  in  San  Diego, 
there  was  a  considerable  crowd  at  the  May 
matches  in  Oakland,  in  tact,  there  were 
18^  pistoleers  attending  the  shoot  and  it 
was,  without  exception,  one  of  the  nicest 
days  I  have  ever  seen  in  Oakland — no 
wind  and  the  sun  was  just  right.  And  the 
new  electric  timer  on  the  25-yard  targets 
was  very  nice — even  when  it  touled  up 
and  didn't  work.  But  one  thing  must  be 
taken  care  of  and  right  soon  before  some- 
one gets  shot  at  like,  and  that's  to  have 
the  ladies  who  insist  on  wearing  shorts 
and  sun  suits  kept  off  the  lines  until  the 
firing  is  all  finished  and  I  think  you  now 
know  why  I  make  the  abo\e  statement. 

But  Carl  Reigleman  offered  the  prize 
alibi  for  the  season  when  he  flopped  his 
rapid  tire  string  with  the  remark  that,  "I 
didn't  know  the  gun  wasn't  loaded!" 
Sounds  like  the  one  I  pulled  many  years 
ago  when  I  forgot  to  load  the  gun  and 
ran  a  dry  firing  string.  I  still  cherish  the 
leather  medal  that  was  preesnted  to  me 
at  the  following  match. 

Rey  Otoboni  threw  a  party  for  the  gang 
at  Colma  when  he  was  appointed  assistant 
chief  of  police.  "Come  on  over  to  my 
house,  boys,  and  we  will  have  a  party  mit 
refreshments  yet."  The  gang  tells  me  that 
Ray  is  still  looking  for  the  culprit  who 
stole  the  refreshments  and  it  is  rumored 
around,  but  very  slightly,  that  maybe  Ray

Marion  Merelich  exhibits  the  Expert  Team

do  that — but  I  wonder. 

Safari  Pictures 

Mike  Carroll,  the  big  game  hunter  just 
returned  from  safari  in  Africa,  had  his 
colored  pictures  out  at  the  last  meeting  of 
the  SF  Police  Revolver  Club  and  scored  a 
complete  hit  with  the  films  with  many  of 
the  boys  saying  they  were  about  tops  for 
excitement — especially  when  that  big  bull- 
elephant  charged  right  at  the  camera.  It's 
too  awful  to  contemplate  the  results  if 
Mike  had  forgotten  to  run,  but  he  didn't, 
so  we  have  the  movies. 

For  those  of  the  pistol  shooting  frater- 
nity who  enjoy  going  to  shoots  and  more 
shoots,  I  might  tell  you  that  the  United 
Revolver  Club  of  Sacramento  are  holding 
monthly  matches  again   this  year  at  the 


DOCTORS  AMBULANCE

5733   ROBERTS  AVENUE

Sacramento  City  Filtration  Plant  at  9  a.m. 
The  matches  will  be  held  on  July  20th, 
August  17,  September  21st  and  October 
lyth  and  will  consist  of  a  .22  National 
Match,  Specialty  Match,  CF  National 
Match  and  .45  National  Match  and  the 
aggregate  of  matches  1,  2  and  4.  Also  a 
team  match.  Medals  and  trophies  to  all 
winners.  NRA  rules  with  a  registration  of 
25c  plus  Si  per  match  with  a  50c  fee  for 
the  aggregate  and  specialty  match. 

I  see  where  Master  Sgt.  Doug  Sheridan 
was  awarded  the  Distinguished  Rifle 
medal  last  month  which  now  makes  him 
the  proud  possessor  of  both  the  rific  and 
pistol  medals,  in  fact,  if  I  remember  cor- 
rectly, there  are  only  eleven  men  in  the 
United  States  that  have  ever  won  both 
medals.  Sgt.  Sheridan  is  in  charge  of  the

National  Indoor  Matches 

Each  winter  the  United  States  Revolver 
Association  holds  national  indoor  pistol 
matches  to  determine  the  US  champions 
in  the  various  classes  and  types  of  matches. 
For  many  years  the  Sacramento  Club  has 
been  the  outstanding  champs  but  of  late 
have  not  been  doing  much  along  the 
USRA  matches.  Recently  the  SF  Police 
Revolver  Club  participated  in  this  .22 
caliber  affair  for  the  first  time  and  at  the 
end  of  the  ten-week  period  the  club's  iirst 
team  won  first  place  in  the  slosv-fire 
match  and  second  in  the  National  Match 
course.  The  club's  second  team  won  first 
in  the  slow  fire  and  third  in  the  match 
course  as  they  were  competing  in  the 
lower  classes.  If  you  saw  the  size  of  the 
bull  on  the  targets  it  would  make  you 
wonder  how  the  shooters  could  see  the 
targets  at  25  feet,  let  alone  hitting  it.  The 
black  is  about  the  size  of  a  silver  dollar. 
President  Elliott  Murphy  of  the  SFPRC  is 
quite  happy  over  the  outcome  and  hopes 
that  they  may  repeat  again  next  year. 
"Murph"  as  you  know  is  also  the  big  shot 
in  the  Accuracy  Bullet  Company  who  has 
for  their  slogan,  "We  aim  to  improve 
your  score."  "Murph"  was  recently  ap- 
pointed as  an  official  referee  by  the  NRA 
and  his  first  job  as  an  official  was  "refing  " 
at  the  matches  in  San  Bruno  in  March. 

Sgt.  Roy  Judy  from  the  McClellan  Air 
Field  team  was  quite  happy  on  Sunday  as 
he  had  his  mother  with  him  at  the  matches. 
Mrs.  Judy  lives  in  Oregon  and  doesn't  get 
down  this  way  very  often  and  was  thrilled 
to  have  her  first  ride  over  the  Bay  bridge, 
to  show  his  prowess  as  a  shooter  he 
managed  to  cop  a  3rd  place  medal  in  the 
pro-sharpshooter  class  in  the  CF  National 
match  course.

May  17th.  Dick  sez  he  is  gonna  educate 
his  bride  in  the  art  of  pistol  shooting  not 
so  much  as  to  make  as  hooter  out  ot  her 
but  rather  along  the  lines  of  knowing  why 
he  should  be  allowed  to  go  to  the  matches 
and  ail  that  there  stuff.  What's  your  guess 
as  to  how  he  makes  out .' 

The  San  Mateo  Sheriff's  Office  team 
came  out  match  all  bedecked  out  in  their 
new  shooting  jackets  and  tho  they  made  a 
creditable  showing  as  far  as  looks  were 
concerned  they  kinda — well,  Cap  Herb 
Elvander  of  the  team  sez  that  the  boys 
were  a  bit  nervous  with  the  new  jackets  on 
and  couldn't  concentrate  on  the  bulls-eye. 
Ken  Ekstrom,  Paul  Lacazette  and  Jim 
Kimble  are  willing  to  abide  by  his  deci- 
sion altho  Bob  Henderson  and  Roy  Star- 
beck  state  that  IF  they  had  been  on  the 
team  instead  of  alternates  the  results  would 
have  been  a  lot  different.  The  two  lads, 
however,  didn't  say  what  the  difference 
would  ha\e  been ! 

Now  that  Harry  Plummer  has  left  these 
parts  for  the  north  country  his  place  as 
captain  of  the  Olympic  Club  team  has  been 
taken  over  by  Bill  Townscnd  who  h.is  had 
a  lot  of  shooting  experience  and  should 
help  the  boys  a  lot.

HOW  TO  SELL! 

There'll  always  be  a  used  car  salesman! 

Up  in  Ontario  in  Canada,  according  to 
the  National  Automobile  Club,  one  of 
them  rigged  up  a  special  arrangement  for 
selling  that  special  car.  Into  this  "car  of 
the  week'  he  sets  a  papier-mache  Indian 
that  is  about  four  feet  in  height  and  is 
equipped  with  one  end  of  a  two-way  inter- 
communication system. 

When  the  customer  wanders  on  the  lot, 
wanders  over  to  the  special,  and  starts 
looking  around,  the  Indian  starts  talking. 
By  the  time  the  shock  has  worn  off,  the 
customer  usually  finds  that  the  Indian  is 
being  moved  out  of  the  driver's  seat  and 
he  is  being  moved  in,  the  breathless  owner 
of  a  bright  new  car. 


DISTRESS  SIGNAL 

A  good  way  to  attract  attention  when 
your  car  breaks  down  on  the  highway  is 
to  tie  a  handkerchief  or  a  piece  of  paper 
to  the  tip  of  the  radio  antennae,  says  the 
California  State  Automobile  Association. 
Another  distress  signal  that  is  effective  is 
to  raise  the  hood  or  the  trunk  lid. 


Only  919,000  miles  of  roads  in  the 
United  States  are  paved,  according  to  the 
National  Automobile  Club.  This  repre- 
sents about  one  fourth  of  the  total.

TRAFFIC  RESPONSIBILITY 

American  law  enforcement  agencies 
now  face  a  greater  responsibility  than  ever 
before  in  preventing  the  distruction  of 
human  life  and  property  on  U.S.  streets 
and  highways. 

So  said  Charles  W.  Woodson,  Jr.,  su- 
perintendent of  the  Virginia  State  Police, 
Richmond,  Va.,  and  second  vice  president 
of  the  International  Association  of  Chiefs 
of  Police. 

Woodson  said  trained  men  would  have 
to  fill  the  gaps  left  by  engineers  and  edu- 
cators in  fighting  the  national  traffic  prob- 
lem. 

"While  engineering  and  education  are 
exceedingly  important  factors,"  he  said, 
"many  of  their  effects  will  only  be  felt  in 
coming  years.  Meanwhile  the  people  are 
demanding  that  the  police  hold  the  line 
against  the  traffic  crisis — right  now." 

Woodson  named  these  among  the  duties 
men  must  face  in  their  careers  as  traffic 
police  administrators: 

— Working  with  lawmakers  to  secure 
realistic  legislation  in  police  matters. 

— Developing  new  techniques  of  traffic 
law  enforcement  and  accident  investiga- 
tion to  cope  with  changing  traffic  patterns. 

— Cooperating  with  driver  license  offi- 
cials in  seeking  to  improve  licensing  pro- 
cedures. 

— Strengthening  the  role  of  the  courts 
in  traffic  safety,  by  developing  citizen  un- 
derstanding of  the  court  process. 

— Working  together  with  public  infor- 
mation media  to  keep  all  drivers  and  pe- 
destrians well  informed  of  the  traffic  prob- 
lem. 

"Finally,"  he  said,  "one  must  sell  the 
philosophy  that,  regardless  of  what  the 
engineers,  the  educators,  or  the  police  do, 
safety  is  everybody's  business." 

He  called  for  the  establishment  of  su- 
pervisor training  programs  in  every  police 
department.  "These  would  stress  leader- 
ship, personnel  evaluation,  human  rela- 
tions and  motivations,  public  relations, 
handling  of  complaints,  grievances  and 
commendations,  and  the  responsibility  of 
the  officer  in  his  loyalty  to  the  chosen  pro- 
fession."

GOOD  RULE 

If  you  want  a  really  good  general  rule 
for  better  driving,  here's  one  given  by  the 
California  State  Automobile  Association 
— drive  so  that  you  never  have  to  do  any- 
thing suddenly.  Avoid  abrupt  stops,  jacic- 
rabbit  starts,  swerving  from  one  lane  to 
another.  Drive  smoothly  and  easily  and 
you'll  be  safer. 

Men  were  drivers  in  89.7  per  cent  of 
fatal  accidents  on  U.  S.  highways  in 
1956,  reports  the  National  Automobile 
Club.

FAIR  HAS  OWN  POLICE  FORCE 


(Special  In  Polk. I  and  Pi:Ati-;  Offichr's 
Journal) 

SACRAMENTO     The  California  State 

I   and   Exposition,  a  city  within  a  citv 

Sacramento,   will   have  its  own  polite 

c  complete  with  thstinctive  uniforms 

.    Kii  the  Fair  opens  this  year,  Au^'ust  27- 

Septembcr  7. 

Durint;  the  12  days  the  I'air  is  in  oper- 
ation, its  police  force  will  be  one  of  the 
busiest  law  enforcement  units  in  the  State 
of  California.  Hired  specially  for  the  Fair's 
12-day  run,  the  policemen,  who  will  num- 
ber about  220  this  year,  will  be  headed  by 
Fair  Police  Chief  Edward  L.  Hcaley. 

Hcalcy,  the  Fair's  assistant  chief  for  the 
past  three  years,  this  year  has  been  pro- 
moted to  the  top  police  post  at  the  expo- 
sition. 

Crime,  .is  such,  is  not  a  major  problem 
at  the  Fair,  but  when  more  than  100, ()()() 
Fair^oers  jam  themselves  into  207  acres 
of  buildings,  amusements  and  grandstands, 
the  police  have  a  major  crowd -control 
problem. 

Spfcial  Attkntion 

Lost  children,  lost  articles,  traffic  direc- 
tion, and  protection  of  the  millions  of  dol- 
lars ot  property  on  display — all  require 
special  police  attention.

The  Horse  Show  will  be  enlarged  and 
improved  by  the  addition  of  a  special 
futurity  for  inexperienced  thoroughbred 
hunters.  A  $1,000  top  prize  is  being  of- 
fered to  the  winner  of  the  event  at  the 
ever-popular  show. 

All  Polished  Up 

All  aspects  of  the  big  exposition  are 
being  brightened,  improved  and  over- 
hauled. A  few  examples: 

1.  The  annual  Fair  Fashion  Show  has 
undergone  a  complete  change  of  format, 
and  the  new  show  will  insure  that  the  best 
fashions  of  California  designers  wall  be 
modeled  at  the  Fair  after  a  stringent  pro- 
gram of  elimination. 

2.  A  record  of  $199,000  being  offered 
in  horse  racing  purses  will  bring  an  even 
better  class  of  horses  to  the  10-day  Fair 
meeting. 

3.  A  huge,  educational  food  show  will 
be  staged  in  the  Merchandise  Mart.  Most 
food  groups  in  the  state  are  co-operating 
with  the  University  of  California  and  the 
Fair  in  the  endeavor  to  educate  Westerners 
along  lines  of  nutrition  and  good  meal 
planning. 

4.  A  big  give-away  drawing,  the  first 
in  the  Fair's  104-year  history,  will  be  held 
during  the  first  three  days  for  Fairgoers  16 
and  under.  A  "California  Treasure  Chest" 
in  the  form  of  a  huge  collection  of  toys, 
sports  equipment,  pets  and  big  surprise 
gifts  will  be  assembled  and  given  away  to

boys  and  girls  whose  winning  tickets  will

Biggest  Show 

These  are  only  a  few  of  the  ways  the 
State  Fair  is  improving  itself  after  the  win- 
ter season  of  study  and  research  by  staff 
members  and  directors. 

The  Fair  has  become  the  biggest  and 
most  successful  annual  show  in  California. 
It  is  aiming  this  year  at  a  record  attend- 
ance of  850,000  on  its  207-acre  Fair- 
ground here,  and  in  1961  on  the  new 
1065-acre  American  River  Site  it  is  plan- 
ning for  visits  by  1,250,000  Western  Fair- 
goers. 

Planning  for  the  new  Fair  is  proceeding 
rapidly  under  direction  of  Theodora  Rose- 
quist,  former  assistant  manager  of  tfie  fair 
and  now  named  to  the  new  post  of  New 
Fair  Co-ordinator. 

The  Maid  of  California  Contest  at  the 
Fair  annually  selects  the  State's  most  beau- 
tiful girl  to  reign  over  the  12-day  event. 
She  is  crowned  by  the  governor  at  the 
Fair's  opening  day  ceremonies. 

Already  seevral  girls  have  entered  the 
contest  as  representatives  of  their  home 
counties,  and  Fair  officials  expect  the  entry 
list  to  contain  a  record  52  names  by  the 
time  all  applications  are  in. 

Most  counties  in  the  state  also  will  be 
represented  by  their  exhibits,  at  the  Fair, 
in  the  huge  Counties  Building.  The  dis- 
plays which  annually  feature  the  products 
of  agriculture  and  horticulture,  wines, 
flowers,  lumber  and  jewel-like  scenes  of 
California's  mountains  and  meadows,  are 
always  the  most  popular  items  at  the  Fair. 

Year  after  year  the  big  exposition 
proves  itself  as  the  best  show  in  the  state 
for  the  entire  family.  In  California  this 
year,  "It's  Your  Best  Date  for  '58."

SAFETY  PATROLS  VALUABLE 


"The  increasing  hazards  to  life  and 
limb  under  city  traffic  conditions  led  re- 

Eresentatives  of  the  San  Francisco  Police 
•epartnient  and  the  Board  of  Education, 
I  acting  in  conjunction  with  representatives 
I  of  the  California  State  Automobile  As- 
sociation, to  plan  an  organization  of  pub- 
lic elementary  school  pupils  to  serve  as 
a  traffic  reserve."  This  was  written  Janu- 
ary 19,  1923,  and  marks  the  beginning  of 
the  School  Safety  Patrol  mo\ement  in 
California. 

Today  the  Patrol  in  San  Francisco  alone 
numbers  4,500  and  there  are  dozens  of 
other  communities  in  the  state  where 
school  patrol  boys  and  girls  offer  inval- 
uable assistance  to  police  departments  and 
peace  officers. 

The  San  Francisco  School  Safety  Pa- 
trol program,  like  others  throughout  the 
nation,  is  a  cooperative  endeavor  among 
the  schools,  certain  civic  groups,  and  the 
law  enforcement  agency.  In  San  Francisco 
the  enforcement  agency,  of  course,  is  the 
Police  Department.  In  other  areas  of  this 
State  it  is  either  the  city  police  department 
or  the  California  Highway  Patrol.  It  is  of 
necessity  such  because  the  School  Patrol 


movement  has  a  semblance  of  police  au- 
thority behind  it  which  the  law  so  pro- 
vides. 

Police  departments  in  cities  and  the 
California  Highway  Patrol  in  unincorpor- 
ated areas  are  authorized  by  law  to  coop- 
erate in  the  establishment  of  School  Safety 
Patrols.  The  law  spciifically  states  that  the 
Patrols  are  for  the  |iurpose  of  assisting 
pupils  in  safely  crossing  streets  and  high- 
ways adjacent  to  .schools  and  that  Patrol 
members  are  authorized  and  required  to 
give  signals  and  directions  only  for  that 
purpose. 

Childri:n  Volunteers 

It  is  further  a  cooperative  program  be- 
cause the  school  children  who  serve  on 
the  Safety  Patrols  are  volunteers  who  must 
get  the  written  consent  of  their  parents 
before  they  can  serve.  There  are  always

plenty  of  students  who  are  eager  and  will- 
ing to  become  Safety  Patrol  members.  The 
small  boys  look  forward  to  the  day  when 
they  will  be  big  enough  to  serve  and  the 
older  boys  are  honored  to  be  chosen  for 
this  responsibility. 

This  pride  of  serving  and  the  loyalty  it 
creates  is  the  reason  that  the  School  Pa- 
trols arc  probably  one  of  the  greatest  pub- 
lic relations  programs  any  police  depart- 
ment can  have.  Serving  on  the  School  Pa- 
trols starts  the  boy  or  girl  out  with  a 
feeling  of  being  a  part  of  police  activity

and  of  actually  helping  the  law  enforce- 
ment officers.  Hence  the  children  grow  up 
with  a  full  realization  of  police  activity 
and  with  a  keen  appreciation  of  what  the 
police  have  to  do.  It  gives  them  a  sense 
of  comradeship  with  the  policeman,  which 
continues  as  the  years  go  by. 

While  the  principal  objective  of  the 
Patrols  is  to  safeguard  the  children,  the 
movement  it  has  actually  resulted  in  one 
of  the  greatest  character  builders  in  the 
school  program.  Members  of  the  Patrol 
quickly  learn  to  have  a  sense  of  duty  and 
responsibility  in  fulfilling  their  job.  In 
learning  how  to  control  and  direct  student 
pedestrians  at  the  school  crossings  they 
are  learning  safe  habits  and  discipline,  dis- 
cipline which  they  carry  into  later  life. 
And  the  safe  walking  habits  which  they 
teach  at  the  school  crossings  stay  with  the 
other  students  even  when  they  are  far 
from  school  and  the  protection  of  the  Pa- 
trols. 

Ease  Police  Burden 

Another  important  aspect  of  the  Patrols 
is  that  they  greatly  help  to  ease  the  burden 
of  the  Police  Department.  There  is  no 
question  that  protection  of  the  children 
is  a  problem  which  must  be  shared  by  the 
entire  community — parents,  schools,  civic 
organizations,  community  agencies  and  the 
Police  Department.  In  most  instances,  of 
course,  it  is  physically  impossible  for  a 
Police  Department  to  provide  officers  for 
all  the  school  crossings  for  all  the  schools. 
However,  four  officers  who  are  assigned 
to  the  detail  of  the  School  Patrol  move- 
ment in  San  Francisco  train  and  supervise 
a  force  of  over  4,500  boys  and  girls! 

These  4,500  Patrol  members  protect 
some  600  street  crossings  near  schools  in 
the  city.  Members  of  the  Patrols  are  in- 
structed not  to  direct  traffic  but  to  "in- 
struct, direct  and  control  members  of  the 
student  body  at  streets  and  highways,  at 
or  near  schools,  and  to  assist  teachers  and 
parents  in  the  instruction  of  school  chil- 
dren in  safe  practices  in  the  use  of  streets 
and  highways  at  all  times  and  places." 

In   the  course  of  their  duties,   Patrol

members  are  instriiLted  definitely  to  stay 
on  the  curb.  If  the  \iew  is  obstructed  by 
parked  vehicles,  they  may  step  three  paces 
into  the  roadway  ti>  size  up  traffic.  Only  in 
the  event  of  an  emergency,  when  a  fellow 
pupil  is  in  danger,  may  they  exceed  this 
limit. 

UNIFORM!:!)    OFFICERS    HELP 

A  regular  uniformed  officer  is  still  on 
duty  where  the  volume  of  traffic  is  such 
that  the  children  cannot  cross  in  safety 
without  having  traffic  controlled.  At  such 
locations  the  School  Patrols  assist  the  po- 
lice officer  by  monitoring  the  children  on 
the  sidewalks.  At  intersections  where  the 
traffic  is  light  to  moderate,  the  Patrols  do 
not  stop  vehicles  but  hold  back  the  chil- 
dren on  the  sidewalk  until  the  street  is 
clear. 

The  importance  of  the  role  the  School 
Patrols  are  playing  is  better  realized  when 
one  understands  that  back  in  the  early 
1920's  before  the  School  Patrols  were  or- 
ganized, an  average  of  20  school  children 
were  killed  each  year  in  the  city's  streets. 
Today  this  number  has  been  reduced  to 
an  average  of  less  than  three  a  year,  and, 
as  has  already  been  noted,  not  one  child 
has  lost  his  life  at  a  Patrol-guarded  cross- 
ing since  the  founding  of  the  movement. 

The  first  Patrols  were  organized  in 
1923  by  the  San  Francisco  Police  Depart- 
ment and  the  California  State  Automobile 
Association  in  cooperation  with  the  Board 
of  Education  and  the  Parent-Teacher  or- 
ganizations. Later  on  the  School  Depart- 
ments of  the  Parochial  Schools,  and  the 
Catholic  Mothers'  Clubs  joined  in  spon- 
soring the  program.  Each  of  the  sponsor- 
ing organizations  has  assumed  definite 
responsibilities  with  respect  to  the  acti- 
vities of  the  Patrols. 

Inspector  Thomas  B.  Tracy  of  the  San 
Francisco  Police  Department  has  been  as- 
signed to  supervise  and  train  the  School 
Patrol  units.  He  is  assisted  by  Sergeant 
Matthew  C.  Duffy  and  Officers  Charles 
Maggioncalda  and  Eugene  Van  Tricht. 

The  Board  of  Education  of  the  city  of 
San  Francisco  and  the  School  Department 
of  the  Archdiocese  of  San  Francisco  assign 
teachers  at  the  various  schools  to  supervise 
the  daily  work  of  their  respective  Patrol 
units.

ribbons  awarded  at  the  annual  parade  and 
review. 

Parent-Teacher  units  of  the  public 
schools  and  the  Catholic  Mother's  Clubs 
of  the  parochial  schools  throughout  the 
cit)'  supervise  the  outfitting  of  Patrols  and 
maintain  the  equipment  in  good  condi- 
tion. 

Inspector  Tracy  estimates  that  in  the 
past  thirty-two  years  more  than  80,000 
boys  and  girls  have  served  in  School 
Safety  Patrols  in  San  Francisco.  Many  of 
these  former  Patrol  members  have  become 
outstanding  leaders  in  community  busi- 
ness and  civic  affairs. 

Each  year  San  Francisco  pays  formal 
tribute  to  the  excellent  work  of  its  Patrols 
at  the  parade  and  review  held  in  Kezar 
Stadium  towards  the  close  of  the  school 
year.  This  year's  colorful  event  was  held 
May  28  and  was  attended  by  a  crowd  of 
some  10,000  people,  including  public  and 
school  officials,  representatives  of  civic 
groups,  parents,  teachers  and  other  friends 
of  the  Patrols. 

The  School  Safety  Patrol  parade  and  re- 
view this  year  commemorated  the  35th 
year  of  this  most  worthwhile  safety  pro- 
gram in  San  Francisco. 

BICYCLES? 

A  recent  general  instruction  provides 
that  with  the  approval  of  the  Officer-in- 
charge  of  the  District,  members  of  the 
Force  who  use  their  own  bicycles  in  the 
performance  of  their  duties  may  be  paid 
a  bicycle  allowance  of  6d  per  day  on  which 
their  bicycle  is  actually  used  on  depart- 
mental business.  Particulars  of  private 
bicycles  for  which  an  allowance  has  been 
approved  are  to  be  recorded  in  district 
offices. 

Bicycle  allowances  are  to  be  paid  quar- 
terly on  a  certified  return  from  the  mem- 
ber in  charge  of  the  station.

Early  one  August  morning  in  1911,  a 
mud-covcrcd,  wild-cycd,  half-starved  In- 
dian stumbled  into  the  town  of  Oroville  in 
Northern  California,  and  started  searching 
for  food.  With  this  event,  points  out  the 
National  Automobile  Club,  Stone  A^e 
California  flickered  into  one  last  little 
flame  before  dyin^  out  forever. 

Taken  into  custody,  the  Indian  was 
turned  over  to  the  sheriflF  of  Butte  County. 
A  man  much  interested  in  Indian  lore,  the 
sheriff  soon  realized  that  what  he  had  here 
was  no  ordinary  Indian  but  a  possible  sur- 
vivor of  the  Yahi  tribe,  a  tribe  that  was 
supposed  to  have  become  extinct  back 
around  1870. 

A  poor  and  primitive  people,  the  Yahi 
had  inhabited  Northern  California  long 
before  the  white  men  came.  When  the 
white  men  came  in  search  of  gold,  they 
stole  property  from  the  Yahi,  the  Yahi 
retaliated  by  killing  a  few  whites,  and  the 
whites  retaliated  by  systematically  killing 
off  the  entire  tribe. 

For  years  after  the  supposed  extinction 
of  the  tribe,  rumors  persisted  that  some 
Yahi  still  lived  in  the  bush.  In  1907  a  sur- 
veying crew  working  in  the  wild  lands  east 
of  the  S.icramento  River  happened  across 
two  elderly  women,  two  enfeebled  old 
men,  a  youngish  woman,  and  a  man  who 
were  apparently  Yahi.  The  little  group 
disappeared  into  the  wilds,  however,  and 
the  only  one  that  was  ever  seen  again  was 
the  man,  Ishi  by  name,  who  stumbled  into 
Oroville  just  four  years  later.

gave  Ishi  a  job  .is  janitor  and  began  to 
study  the  ways  of  this  primitive  man. 

Ishi  had  a  tjuick  mind,  but  his  interest 
rarely  strayed  too  far  beyond  the  confines 
of  the  primitive  culture  in  which  he  had 
grown.  He  never  ceased  to  wonder  at  wa- 
ter coming  from  a  tap,  this  "spring  in  the 
house."  Where  for  years  he  had  known  no 
other  way  to  start  a  fire  but  by  rubbing 
two  sticks  together,  he  now  used  matches 
and  they  filled  him  with  awe.  The  way  a 
window  shade  would  run  up  with  that 
certain  tug  he  found  endlessly  fascinating. 
But  automobiles,  airplanes,  electricity? 
These  he  couldn't  seem  to  comprehend, 
just  dismissed  them  with  a  wave  of  the 
hand  as  "white  man's  magic.  " 

Ishi  learned  English  faster  than  the  an- 
thropologists learned  Yahi  and  he  passed 
along  to  them  much  valuable  information 
on  the  ways  of  his  people.  When  verbal 
communication  broke,  down,  he  would 
carefully  draw  them  a  picture. 

When  Ishi  died  in  1916  he  was  deeply 
mourned  by  all  who  had  known  him.  With 
his  death  they  felt  that  they  had  lost  a 
warm  friend,  a  human  being  gifted  with 
a  rare  gentleness  and  a  very  real  human 
dignity.

ACCIDENT  RULES 

If  a  person  is  involved  in  an  automobile 
accident  there  are  several  things  he  should 
do  for  his  own  protection  if  he  is  physi- 
cally able.  The  following  outline  of  this 
procedure  has  been  prepared  by  the  Cali- 
fornia State  Automobile  Association. 

1.  Stop.  Do  everything  possible  to  pro- 
tect the  car  and  passengers  from  further 
damage. 

2.  Render  aid  and  assistance  to  any  in- 
jured persons. 

3.  Give  your  name,  address  and  license 
number  to  the  other  driver  and  to  any 
police  officer  that  may  be  present.  Show 
your  operator's  license.  Be  sure  to^  secure 
this  same  information  from  the"  other 
party. 

4.  Find  out  who  is  the  owner  of  the 
other  car. 

5.  Get  the  names  and  addresses  of  any 
persons  who  were  passengers  in  the  other 
car. 

6.  Take  down  the  names  of  any  wit- 
nesses to  the  accident. 

7.  As  soon  as  practicable,  jot  down  a 
few  notes  as  to  when  and  where  the  acci- 
dent occurred  and  how  it  happened.  Draw 
a  diagram  showing  how  the  cars  collided 
and  their  relative  positions  in  regard  to 
the  road,  intersection,  etc. 

8.  If  the  accident  occurs  in  California 
and  involves  any  injury  or  death,  you  must 
report  to  the  California  Highway  Patrol, 
the  sheriff's  office  or  to  the  police  within 
24  hours. 

9.  If  the  accident  occurs  in  California 
and  involves  any  injury  or  death  or  dam- 
age to  the  property  of  any  one  person  of 
$100  or  more,  you  must  report  to  the  De- 
partment of  Motor  Vehicles  within  15 
days. 

TOO  MUCH  SPEED 

Too  much  speed  is  dangerous  at  any 
time  but  it  is  particularly  dangerous  dur- 
ing this  autumn  season.  National  Automo- 
bile Club  advises  you  to  slow  down  and 
be  safe  when  roads  are  made  slippery  by 
falling  rain  or  when  visibility  has  been 
impaired  by  drifting  fog  or  heavy  mist.

The  State  of  California,  in  the  past  70 
years  has  ^rown.  So  h;is  its  prisons.  Bi- 
jennial  reports,  required  by  law  from  the 
I  governing  body,  give  good  account  ot 
!  what  has  gone  on  and  what  is  going  on 
in  the  penal  institutions.  Look  what  has 
happened  in  70  years. 
I  1886

Prison  Population 

1886 

The  number  of  prisoners  on  hand  on 
June  30,  1886  was  1,247. 
1956 

The  number  of  inmates  held  at  the  vari- 
ous institutions  on  June  30,  1956  was 
15,319. 

Prison  Employment 
1886 

At  San  Quentin  Prison,  under  the  old 
contract  system,  contractors,  in  order  to  se- 
cure more  faithful  labor  from  prisoners  in 
the  shops,  had  been  accustomed  to  pay 
them,  for  their  exclusive  benefit,  a  sum 
ranging  from  ten  cents  a  day  upward  for 
extra  work.  In  other  words,  if  a  convict 
performed  work  over  and  above  what  was 
allotted  to  him  as  a  daily  task,  he  received 
from  the  contractor  a  proportionate  com- 
pensation. When  the  manufacturing  de- 
partments  passed   into  the  hands  of  the

State,  it  was  not  deemed  prudent  or  profit- 
able by  the  administration  then  in  charge 
to  discontinue  the  custom.  On  the  con- 
trary, the  system  was  enlarged  so  as  to  em- 
brace all  convicts  in  the  various  shops, 
without  regard  to  whether  they  performed 
extra  work  or  not.  The  per  diem  allow- 
ance, ranging  from  five  to  ten  cents  a  day, 
was  drawn  from  the  earnings  of  the 
prison.

faith  and  with  the  best  of  intentions,  it 
was,  nevertheless,  very  harshly  commented 
upon  by  several  legislati\-e  committees  as 
an  act  entirely  without  warrant  of  law. 
In  view  of  the  uncertainty  of  the  law,  and 
of  the  further  fact  that  the  money  so  paid 
to  the  prisoners  was  seldom  put  to  useful 
account  we  suspended  such  payments  from 
the  first  of  January,  1886.  Thanks  to  the 
firmness  of  our  officers,  this  change  was 
made  without  the  anticipated  friction 
among  the  convicts.  A  savings  of  |1,500 
per  month  to  the  state  was  thus  eflFected. 

At  Folsom  Prison,  where  the  convict 
population  increased  twenty  per  cent  dur- 
ing the  year,  we  were  less  fortunate.  The 
appropriation  of  $95,000  for  ths  fiscal 
year  for  that  institution  was  based  on  an 
estimated  earning  of  $40,000  from  the 
granite  quarries.  Owing  to  the  unparal- 
leled depression  of  the  stone  market,  only 
a  small  percentage  of  this  was  realized.  No 
other  source  or  income  was  available;  and 
though  the  strictest  economy  was  prac- 
ticed, and  every  form  of  expense  mini- 
mized, a  deficiency  was  the  inevitable  re- 
sult." 

1956 
The  Correctional  Industries  provide  a 
balanced  work  program  which  enables  in- 
mates to  acquire  the  good  work  habits  and 
occupational  skills  necessary  for  successful 
adjustment  to  community  living. 

In  addition  the  Correctional  Industries 
play  a  significant  role  in  the  elimination  of 
inmate  idleness  —  idleness  that  causes 
both  mental  and  physical  degeneration. 
The  Correctional  Industries  include  29  in- 
dustrial and  19  farm  projects.  The  Correc- 
tional Industries  are  operated  as  a  separate, 
self-supporting  division  of  the  depart- 
ment. The  industries  are  charged  with  all 
the  costs  of  raw  material,  capital  invest- 
ment, utilities  and  wages  plus  a  portion  of 
the  cost  of  custodial  super\'ision  of  the 
operations.  Inmate  employees  are  paid  an 
incentive  wage  of  from  2  to  10  cents  per 
hour.  None  of  the  products  of  the  Correc- 
tional Industries  is  sold  to  the  public. 
Products  are  sold  only  to  the  tax  supported

agencies  of  the  state  and  its  political  sub- 
divisions. The  department  is  its  own  best 
customer. 

The  largest  single  advance  during  19''^- 
56  was  the  activation  of  the  new  textile 
mill  at  San  Quentiii.  Products  ol  the  mill 
include  muslin,  chambray,  denim,  towel- 
ing, drill,  twill  sheets  and  pillow  c;ises, 
duck  and  broadcloth. 

Another  advance  of  the  Correctional  In- 
dustries during  the  two-year  period  was 
the  development  of  a  new  industrial  area 
at  the  California  State  Prison  at  Folsom. 
This  included  a  building  to  house  the  li- 
cense plate  plant.  During  1956  the  factory 
completed  its  run  of  1956  plates,  by  far 
the  largest  issue  produced  by  any  state. 

More  than  1,200  carefully  screened  min- 
imum security  prisoners  voluntarily  occu- 
pied 21  honor  camps.  Fifteen  of  these 
camps  were  permanent  all -year -around 
operations.  Each  inmate  can  earn  up  to 
$15.00  a  month  as  project  labor.  This 
money  is  deposited  in  the  inmate's  trust 
account. 

Cost  ok  Maintaining  California 
Prisons 
1886 
We  estimate  the  total  cost  of  maintain- 
ing the  State   Prison  at  San  Quentin  at 
$201,500  and  the  total  cost  of  maintaining 
the  State  prison  at  Folsom  at  $120,000 
per  year. 

1956 
The  cost  of  operating  the  Department 
of  Corrections  and  its  institutions  came  to 
some  $22,000,000  in  the  fiscal  year 
1955-56.

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS'  JOURNAL 


Junt-July  1958 


tation  of  unusual  proportions  swept  the 
state.  It  was  largely  directed  against  the 
alleged  competition  of  convict  with  free 
labor.  Your  Board  was  charged  with  violat- 
ing the  constitutional  provisions  forbidd- 
ing the  letting  of  the  labor  of  convicts  by 
contract,  but  after  an  exhaustive  examina- 
tion, you  found  such  complaints  without 
foundation  in  fact.  At  the  same  time  you 
suggested  that  the  operations  of  the  furni- 
ture department  at  San  Quentin  and  the 
sale  of  stone  at  Folsom  Prison  quarry  be 
discontinued.  These  suggestions  have  been 
followed  to  the  letter,  so  far  at  least  as 
the  discharge  of  the  previous  business  ob- 
ligations would  permit. 

The  future  employment  of  convicts  is 
now  a  subject  for  the  best  thought  of  the 
next  legislative  session.  Hitherto  the  stat- 
utes relating  to  the  industrial  systems  at 
the  two  prisons  have  been  meager,  vague 
and  unsatisfactory.  We  now  ask  for  legis- 
lation that  will  define  our  powers  and 
duties  in  the  most  express  and  unequivocal 
language.  While  none  more  earnestly  de- 
sires to  avoid  competition  with  free  labor 
than  ourselves,  at  the  same  time  we  recog- 
nize the  absolute  necessity  of  maintaining 
a  system  of  labor  among  prisoners;  and  if 
that  can  be  made  profitable  without  inter- 
ference with  free  mechanics,  so  much  the 
better.  To  keep  the  prisoners  in  absolute 
idleness  would  be  a  step  backward  into 
the  dark  ages  of  penology;  and  the  results, 
if  understood,  would  be  abhorrent  to  every 
right  thinking  man  in  the  state. 
Make  Jute  Goods 

So  far  as  San  Quentin  Prison  is  con- 
cerned, we  can  suggest  a  ready  means  of 
employment  which  will  in  no  considerable 
degree  conflict  with  the  interests  of  free 
labor,  and  which  has  never  been  objected 
to  on  that  score.  We  refer  to  the  manufac- 
ture of  jute  goods.  The  present  jute  mill 
at  San  Quentin  has  been  in  operation  some 
five  years.  It  has  passed  through  its  experi- 
mental stage.  Its  operations  are  now  con- 
ducted with  a  mechanical  accuracy  equal 
to  that  of  the  best  manufacturing  concern. 
During  the  last  fiscal  year  our  net  profit 
from  the  mill  was  $14,027.43,  and  we 
hope  to  make  a  still  better  showing  for 
the  current  years,  owing  to  the  constantly 
increasing  skill  of  the  hands,  the  output 
steadily  becomes  greater,  while  the  cost  of 
running  remains  the  same.  The  mill  now 
gives  employment  to  about  400  men. 
Settle  Problems 

Another  mill  of  equal  capacity,  would 
absorb  the  entire  force  not  engaged  in  do- 
mestic affairs  of  the  prison  or  physically 
disabled.  Should  the  Legislature  see  fit  to 
appropriate  the  sum  of  $150,000  the  ques- 
tion of  how  to  employ  convict  labor  at  San 
Quentin  would  be  settled  definitely  and 
forever. 

At  Folsom  Prison,  the  solution  of  the 


problem  of  how  to  employ  convict  labor 
without  coming  in  conflict  with  free  labor 
is  not  so  simple  a  proposition.  There  is 
work  enough  ahead  in  the  construction  of 
a  wall,  and  a  variety  of  local  improvements 
to  occupy  the  active  force  for  several  years. 
A  most  tangible  suggestion  that  we  have 
noted,  is  that  the  prisoners  be  employed 
in  cutting  rough  stone  for  the  seawall  in 
San  Francisco  and  for  other  public  works. 
Any  plan  that  contemplates  moving  the 
prisoners  from  the  immediate  vicinity  of 
the  prisons,  such  as  in  the  construction  of 
highways,  etc.,  we  consider  impracticable. 
Besides  it  would  be  competing  with  the 
most  helpless  class  of  free  labor  —  that 
which  is  unskilled. 

1956 
The  Trade  Advisory  Councils,  which 
had  their  inception  in  California,  provide 
an  outstanding  example  of  citizen  partici- 
pation in  the  program  of  the  Department 
of  Corrections.  Some  400  men  in  industry 
are  members  of  the  various  advisory  coun- 
cils. These  men  give  unselfishly  of  their 
time  and  energies  advising  the  department 
regarding  establishment  of  vocational  pro- 
grams, evaluating  their  effectiveness,  and 
assisting  in  placement  of  inmate  graduates 
of  the  program.  These  men  are  keenly 
aware  of  the  up-to-the-minute  trends  in 
their  field.  They  are  in  an  unparalleled 
position  to  know  of  job  opportunities  and 
to  insure  that  the  vocational  courses  meet 
the  needs  of  the  industry  by  providing 
competent  instruction  in  the  current  tech- 
niques on  acceptable  equipment.

SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER,  19^8 


This  is  where  we  stand  .  .  . 

\A/ith  this  issue,  we  are  presenting  the  new 
Police  and  Peace  Officers'  Journal.  Much 
time,  effort,  and  money  were  invested  in  com- 
pletely redoing  the  magazine  in  order  to  make  it 
into  a  more  attractive  and  more  informative  pub- 
lication. 

Along  with  this  introduction,  we  also  wish  to 
discuss  a  rather  unpleasant  situation  which  was 
recently  called  to  our  attention. 

It  seems  that  certain  factions  in  California  are 
making  both  verbal  and  printed  defamatory  state- 
ments about  this  publication. 

The  Police  and  Peace  Officers'  Journal  was 
founded  in  I  922,  making  it  one  of  the  oldest  mag- 
azines of  its  type  In  California.  We  are  the  grand- 
daddy  of  them  all;  most  of  the  other  police-type 
magazines  In  the  State  are  still  considerably  wet 
behind  their  editorial  ears. 

These  "Johnny-come-lately"  magazines  at- 
tempt to  criticize  us  on  the  grounds  that  ours  is 
an  unofficial  publication  and  that  we  are  printed 
by  private  industry.  This  is  almost  too  absurd  for 
comment. 

The  Journal  An  independent  Voice 

For  the  record,  however,  let  us  point  out  the 
following:  our  magazine's  masthead  says  literally 
in  black  and  white  that  we  are  an  independent 
publication.  Also,  our  private  industry  setup  (this 
means  we  have  a  printer)  Is  the  same  as  that  of 
all  the  other  law  enforcement  magazines  in  the 
State.  They  all  pay  some  print  shop  to  do  their 
printing. 

We  have  nothing  but  contempt  for  any  petty 
factions  or  pressure  groups,  whether  political, 
journalistic,  or  what-have-you,  who,  through  libel- 
ous, false,  and  unprivileged  statements,  seek  to 
destroy  competition. 

The  only  recognition  we  give  the  statements 
made  about  us  is  to  say  that  they  are  unprivi- 
leged and  are  intended  to  Injure  us  In  our  busi- 
ness and  are  apparently  made  with  malice. 

Too  many  of  the  police-type  magazines  around 
nowadays  are  journalistic  slop,  badly  written,  and 
look  like  they've  been  put  together  with  a  shovel. 
Their  existence  as  a  news  and  Information  media, 
in  most  cases.  Is  completely  nil. 
Our  Credo 

The  new  Police  and  Peace  Officers'  Journal  is 
an  honest  effort  to  rise  above  the  run-of-the-mill, 
mediocre  law  enforcement  publications.  We  are 
four-square  for  the  policeman  and  the  peace  offi- 
cer. We  are  bitterly  opposed  to  any  forces  or 
factions,  either  In  high  positions  or  among  the 
lowly,  who  seek  to  corrupt  or  hamper  the  work  of

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS  JOURNAL 


Farewell 

to 

a 

fighter 


Chief  Ahern  leaves  his  beloved  St.  Mary's  Cathedral  for  the  last  time. 


The  late  Chief  Ahern  brought  high  honors  to  the  police  profession 


THE  LATE  Chief  Ahern  was  a  fighter 
.  .  .  He  fought  for  his  beloved  San 
Francisco,  cleaning  her  up  with  a  spec- 
tacular drive  against  vice  and  crime. 

He  fought  for  his  men,  gaining  their 
respect  and  cooperation  despite  a  great 
deal  of  controversy  when  he  became  Chief 
some  two  years  ago.  He  turned  the  San 
Francisco  Police  Department  upside  down, 
bringing  plenty  of  "esprit  de  corps" 
back  into  the  department.  And  when 
Ahern  felt  his  men  were  in  the  right,  he'd 
back  them  all  the  way,  regardless  of  the 
opposition. 

He  fought  for  the  police  department 
too,  so  that  his  men  might  have  better 
tools  and  the  latest  techniques. 

This  man  who  knew  how  to  fight,  how 
to  compete,  also  knew  how  to  cheer.  In 
a  sense,  he  was  constantly  cheering  for  his 
city,  his  men,  and  his  profession. 

Ironically,  Chief  Ahern  died  cheering. 

Stricken  at  Stadium 

An  ardent  baseball  fan,  the  Chief  was 
fatally  stricken  with  a  heart  attack  during 
the  San  Francisco  Giant's  Labor  Day  game 
at  Seals  Stadium. 

Great  crowds  of  San  Franciscans  paid  a 
last  tribute  to  Chief  Ahern,  the  man  who 
served  them  so  unselfishly  and  so  well. 


Thousands  of  mourners  filed  past  his  bier 
as  he  lay  in  state  in  the  rotunda  of  City 
Hall.  Thousands  more  lined  the  streets  in 
respectful  silence  as  the  nine-block  long 
procession  slowly  accompanied  the  body 
to  St.  Mary's  Cathedral.  Burial  was  at 
Holy  Cross  Cemetery. 

Francis  Joseph  Ahern  was  born  58 
years  ago  in  the  South-of-Market  district. 
He  attended  the  old  Franklin  Grammar 
School  and  Polytechnic  High  School.  His 
early  religious  training — to  which  he  re- 
mained steadfast  all  his  life — included 
serving  as  an  altar  boy  at  St.  Rose's 

After  high  school,  he  worked  as  a  clerk 
for  the  Southern  Pacific  and  later  served 
them  as  a  claims  investigator.  It  was  then 
that  he  decided  to  join  the  San  Francisco 
Police  Department. 

Rise  Was  Swift 

As  a  rookie  and  later  as  an  officer,  his 
complete  devotion  to  duty  and  his  pro- 
fessional thoroughness  brought  him  recog- 
nition. He  was  moved  from  job  to  job, 
always  gaining  broader  and  more  valuable 
experience.  Quickly  he  established  himself 
as  one  of  the  top  men  on  the  force. 

Over  the  years,  his  capabilities  and  his 
accomplishments  have  become  almost  leg- 
endary. Some  are  still  widely  known  to- 


day;  others,   however,   have   faded   a  bit 
with  the  passing  years. 

One  memorable  case  in  which  he 
showed  his  mettle  was  the  New  Amster- 
dam Hotel  fire  in  1944.  Twenty-two  per- 
sons lost  their  lives  when  a  spectacular 
fire  gutted  the  dilapidated  and  run-down 
hotel,  located  in  San  Francsico's  Skid  Row. 
Investigation  showed  it  was  a  clear  case 
of  arson. 

Officer  Ahern,  assigned  the  job  of  track- 
ing down  the  culprit,  spent  months  of 
painstaking  sleuthing  before  bringing  the 
arsonist  to  justice. 

Couldn't  Be  Bribed 

The  unwavering  strength  of  the  late 
Chief's  character  showed  itself  clearly  in 
yet  another  incident.  This  one  involved 
an  extremely  wealthy  and  notorious  abor- 
tion ring.  During  a  raid,  the  woman  ring- 
leader of  the  abortion  mill  urged  Ahern 
to  ':help  "  himself  to  $280,000  cash  from 
her  safe.  Ahern  had  her  arrested  and  con- 
victed with  an  additional  charge  of  at- 
tempted bribery. 

No  doubt  these  and  many  more  tales  of 
this  man  and  his  deeds  will  be  told  and 
re-told  whenever  and  wherever  lawmen 
congregate.  The  life  story  of  a  person  like 
the  late  Chief  Ahern  lives  on  in  the  high- 
est annals  of  the  police  profession.

Traffic  safety  program  — BIG  in  Oakland 

Workable  traffic  programs  plus  efficient  police 

are  bringing  international  recognition  to  this  city 


S  I  'he  success  story  o(  Oakland's  Police 
Department  Traffic  Safety   Program 
is  written  on  a  wail  in  the  office  of  Cap- 
tain William  McMurry. 

Here,  on  about  two  dozen  metal-and- 
wood  plaques,  is  the  recognition  and  tes- 
timony that  Oakland  is  doing  its  best  to 
keep  death  and  injury  off  its  streets  and 

i  highways. 
A  recent  addition  to  the  group  of 
awards  is  the  Outstanding  Achievement 
Award,  co-sponsored  by  the  International 
\  Association  of  Chiefs  of  Police  and  the 
National  Safety  Council.  Eleven  U.  S. 
cities  with  populations  of  500,000  or  more 
were  in  the  categor)'. 

Goal  For  Oakland 
These  awards,  however,  are  but  a  start- 
ing  point    for   Capt.    McMurry,    who    is 
head  of  Traffic  Control,  Oakland  Police 
Ofp.irtment.    He    .md    his    hiehlv-skilled 


HIT-RUN  DATA  is  gathered  bv  Officers  Eu- 
gene S.  Salvail,  left,  and  Arthur  Oliver.  Their 

)  report  is  later  reviewed  by  Hit-Run  Detail. 

'  Both  officers  are  full  time. 


team  of  men  have  set  their  sights  on  a 
BIG  goal:  making  Oakland  the  safest 
traffic  city  in  the  U.  S. 

Presently,  the  entire  Oakland  Police 
Department,  including  McMurry  and 
Traffic  Control,  are  in  somewhat  cramped 
temporary-  quarters  near  City  Hall.  When 
completed,  Oakland's  new  $7  million-plus 
Hall  of  justice  will  be  home  base  for  the 
department. 

WW  II  Changed  Oakland 

The  City  of  Oakland  itself  has  pre- 
sented a  great  many  major  problems  in 
the  last  20  years  or  so.  During  World  War 
II,  for  instance,  heavy  concentrations  of 
defense  plants,  shipyards,  military  bases 
brought  in  great  numbers  of  people. 

There  were  all  types  among  these  new 
arrivals  and  their  varied  backgrounds 
turned  this  bustling  port  town  into  one 
of  the  biggest  melting  pots  of  the  Pacific 
Coast.  (After  the  war  ended,  a  large  per- 
centage of  this  new  population  chose  to 
stay  in  Oakland  or  in  the  many  new  com- 
munities which  had  sprung  up  near  the 
cit>-.) 

A  California  newspaper  recently  refer- 
red to  Oakland  as  "the  Brooklyn  of  the 
bay  area.  " 

Ever  increasing  port  facilities  brought 
a  need  for  more  and  more  warehouses.  In 
turn,  more  warehouses  brought  increased 
trucking  and  rail  facilities,  each  a  potential 
traffic  hazard  if  not  controlled  and  han- 
dled properly. 

McMuRRYs  Work  Pays  Off 

Capt.  William  McMurry  is  the  man 
who's  job  it  is  to  see  that  traffic  carnage 
doesn't  get  a  toe-hold   in  Oakland.   Mc- 


Murry is  big  and  tall;  his  friendly  yet 
dignified  manner  make  him  stand  out 
even  more. 

In  a  dark  business  suit,  the  Captain 
would  easily  pass  for  a  highly  successful 
business  executive. 

Actually,  in  a  manner  of  speaking,  Capt. 
McMurry  /s  an  executive — and  a  success- 
ful one  at  that.  He  is  a  good  representative 
of  the  new  type  of  police  administrator, 
the  man  who  combines  brain  and  stamina

with  the  latest  scientific  and  analytic  meth- 
ods of  police  training. 

Attended  Northwestern 

McMurry  came  to  Oakland  in  1936 
from  his  hometown  of  Santa  Cruz.  He  had 
planned  to  study  architectural  engineering 
at  the  University  of  California,  at  Ber- 
keley. But  money  was  fairly  scarce  at  that 
time,  he  recalls,  so  he  put  aside  his  college 
plans  and  joined  the  Oakland  Police  De- 
partment. 

However,  McMurry  kept  on  studying 
in  his  spare  time  and  in  1946  was  chosen 
to  attend  the  renowned  Traffic  Institute 
at  Northwestern  University,  near  Chicago. 

Capt.  McMurry  and  his  family  now 
live  in  Montclair,  near  Oakland. 

The  Men  With  McMurry 

The  scope  of  Oakland's  traffic  safety 
program  is  in  itself  quite  impressive.  Lieu- 
tenant Jerry  Lewis  heads  the  Enforcement 
Section,  having  charge  of  all  the  men 
working  on  motorcycles  and  three-wheel- 
ers and  those  handling  radar  equipment. 

Another  highly-skilled  group  is  the  In- 
vestigation Section,  headed  by  Lieutenant 
Jim  McCarthy.  Under  McCarthy  are  the 
chief  investigators,  the  accident  investiga- 
tion details,  and  the  men  who  check  on 
fleet  safety,  suspended  licenses,  etc.

McMurry  is  the  Traffic  Education  Section. 
This  function  is  handled  by  Sergeant  Fred

Guards,  the  Adult  Traffic  Guards,  and  the 
driver  training  courses  in  junior  and  se- 
nior high  schools. 

These  men  also  handle  the  Bicycle  De- 
tail. (This  year,  the  department  has  is- 
sued about  15,000  licenses  to  bike-riding 
youngsters.)  Each  school  year,  this  group 
also  presents  a  three-week  safety  lecture 
series  in  the  schools  and  in  nearby  indus- 
tries having  truck  fleets. 

Statistics  Studied  Closely 

A  big  part  of  the  Oakland  success  story 
is  the  complete  liaison  between  Capt.  Mc- 
Murry's  office  and  city  officials.  Each  man 
under  McMurry  is  thoroughly  trained 
to  keep  a  wide  range  of  statistics  on  almost 
every  conceivable  traffic  situation.  He 
keeps  these  accurately  during  each  daily

These  meetings  are  most  effective,  in 
Capt.  McMurry's  opinion,  because  they 
"serve  as  good  sounding  boards  for  the 
complex  problems  we  have  to  tackle  from 
time  to  time." 

"And  only  by  working  very  closely 
with  all  these  related  groups  can  we  be 
sure  we're  on  the  right  track  to  good  traf- 
fic safety,"  McMurry  said. 

"Anyway,  that's  our  goal  here  in  Oak- 
land and  we're  studying  every  possible 
angle  to  help  the  motorist  and  pedestrian 
think  safety  .  .  .  and  practice  safety."

SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER,  1958 


THOMAS  J.  Cahill,  long-time  friend, 
aide,  and  confidant  of  the  late  Fran- 
cis Ahern,  has  taken  over  the  reins  of 
leadership  of  the  San  Francisco  Police 
Department. 

The  San  Francisco  Police  Commission 
announced  the  selection  of  the  former 
chief  deput)-  following  funeral  services 
for  Chief  Ahern. 

Chief  Cahill  thus  becomes  San  Fran- 
cisco's 25th  police  chief  and,  at  48,  is  one 
of  the  youngest  men  ever  to  hold  the  top 
job  in  the  department. 

Names  Nelder  Deputy 
As  his  first  official  act,  Cahill  chose 
Lieutenant  Alfred  J.  Nelder,  43,  as  his 
deputy  chief.  Nelder  is  former  head  of 
Homicide.  Cahill  and  Nelder  were  both 
sworn  into  office  at  impressive  public 
ceremonies  held  September  8  in  the  Police 
Commission  chambers  at  the  Hall  of 
Justice. 

San  Francisco  Mayor  George  Christo- 
pher and  members  of  the  Police  Commis- 
sion reiterated  their  stand  on  the  much- 
publicized  Christopher-Ahern  policy  of  a 
closed  town,  rigid  discipline  within  the 
department,  and  strict  law  enforcement.

In  fact,  Cahill  put  plenty  of  space  be- 
tween himself  and  other  candidates  for 
the  post  by  his  considerable  ability  to  carry- 
out  the  groundwork  begun  by  Ahern. 
Ahern  and  Cahill  had  always  worked  to- 
gether closely  and  well.  In  1936  Ahern 
picked  Cahill  as  his  deputy  chief. 

Support  Requested 

After  choosing  Nelder  as  his  running 
mate.  Chief  Cahill  said:  "I  promise  to  the 
citizens  the  greatest  protection  of  life  and 


"Deputy  Chief  Nelder  and  I  will  do 
the  job  together — with  the  support  of 
every  man  in  this  department." 

Cahill  and  Nelder  are  a  two-man  team 
from  'way  back.  They  were  in  the  same 
group  taking  the  police  civil  service  ex- 
amination in  1942.  Their  appointment  to 
the  police  department  came  on  the  same 
day  1 6  years  ago.  Later,  they  were  partners 
in  a  radio  car  following  their  shift  to  the 
Accident  Prevention  Bureau.  Following 
this,  they  were  transferred  as  a  team  and 
saw  rugged  duty  in  the  flying  squad  which 
worked  out  of  Homicide. 


property   that    is   possible   to   assure   the 
citizens  of  a  large  metropolis  like  this."

Reared  In  Ireland 

Cahill,  of  Irish  stock,  was  born  in  Chi- 
cago. When  he  was  two,  his  parents  took 
him  back  to  Ireland,  where  Cahill  grew 
to  young  manhood.  At  the  age  of  19,  he 
returned  to  America,  thus  retaining  his 
United  States  citizenship. 

For  some  time  he  worked  in  Fresno  and 
later  on  in  San  Francisco.  In  1942  he 
joined  the  department.  He  was  married 
in  1943.  The  Chief  and  Mrs.  Cahill  have 
four  children:  Elizabeth,  Thomas,  John 
Michael,  and  Edmond  Peter.

Capt.  Olstad  dies; 
leukemia  victim 

Death  has  claimed  another  member  of 
the  San  Francisco  PoUce  Department. 

Captain  Ralph  Olstad,  recently  named 
Acting  Traffic  Director,  died  September 
14  at  St.  Francis  Hospital  where  he  had 
been  admitted  a  week  earlier  suffering 
from  leukemia. 

Capt.  Olstad,  58,  was  truly  a  career 
officer  in  every  sense  of  the  word.  He 
worked  and  strived  hard  to  get  up  the 
ladder  of  success.  He  joined  the  San  Fran- 
cisco Police  Department  in  1934  after 
placing  first  among  almost  three  thousand 
applicants  taking  the  civil  service  test  for 
police  officer. 

Named  By  Cahill 

Olstad's  progress  in  the  department  was 
remarkable.  He  became  a  sergeant  in 
1939;  a  lieutenant  in  1945;  in  1948  he 
was  promoted  to  captain.  By  1949  he  was 
promoted  to  Captain  of  Traffic. 

Chief  Cahill  named  Olstad  to  act  as 
Traffic  Director  to  fill  in  for  Captain  Dan 
Kiely.  Capt.  Kiely  has  been  ill  for  some 
time. 

Was  Traffic  Authority 

Olstad  was  a  native  of  South  Dakota 
and  came  to  San  Francisco  as  a  young  man. 
During  his  24  years  with  the  police  de- 
partment, he  was  known  as  an  honest, 
efficient  officer  and  became  a  recognized 
authority  on  traffic  problems  and  their 
solution. 

Survivors  include  his  widow,  Frieda;  a 
daughter,  Marilyn,  and  sons  Robert  and 
Ralph,  Jr. 

Funeral  services  were  held  September 
16  with  interment  at  Cypress  Lawn  Me- 
morial Park.

Nelder  named  new  deputy  chief 

Long-time  ivorkhig  partnership  continues  as  Cahill  picks  Nelder  as  chief  deputy 


LiiiiTiNANT  Al  Ni:li)i:r  is  a  youn^ 
m.in  bringing  a  wealth  ol'  experience 
to  his  new  post  as  deputy  thief  of  pohce. 
He  has  an  extensive  knowledge  of  police 
work  in  San  Francisco,  having  been  as- 
sociated closely  with  both  Ahern  and 
Cahill  for  many  years. 

The  new  police  administrator's  ability 
and  integrity  arc  well  known.  Some 
sources  said  that  his  young  age  (he's  43) 
WMS  also  one  of  the  determining  factors 
in  his  being  named  deputy  chief  by  Cahill. 
The  job  of  deputy  chief  carries  a  terrific 
wiirk-load,  which  is  one  of  the  reasons 
«  liy  a  younger  man  was  chosen  over  senior 
ortKcrs. 

Worked  With  Ahern 
>4elder  and  his  new  boss  were  co-work- 
er- in  the  Inspectors  Bureau.  Both  re- 
portedly have  the  same  attitude  as  did  the 
late  Ahern,  and  stand  for  strict  depart- 
mental discipline  and  for  keeping  vice  and 
crime  out  of  San  Francisco.  Nelder  has 
been  head  of  Homicide. 

While  at  Mission  High  School,  Nelder 
w.is  an  all-city  baseball  player  and  also 
won  recognition  in  tennis.  He  played 
some  semi-professional  baseball  after  grad- 


FIRST  OFFICIAL  ACT  of  new  police  thief 
was  appointment  of  Al  Nelder  as  deputy 
chief.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Nelder,  above,  have  a  17- 
year-old  daughter,  Wendy,  a  freshman  at  U.C. 


uation  and  then  joined  the  Municipal 
Railway  as  a  conductor.  Later  he  became 
an  inspector  for  Municipal. 

The  new  deputy  was  married  in  193(5. 
He  and  his  wife,  Gertrude,  have  a  17- 
year-old  daughter,  Wendy.  The  girl  is  a 
pre-med  student  at  the  University  of  Cali- 
fornia and  is  also  an  outstanding  swimmer. 

Changes  Announced 

As  Thh  Journal  went  to  press,  addi- 
tional changes  in  the  San  Francisco  Police 
Department  had  been  announced.  Inspec- 
tor Ralph  McDonald  succeeded  Nelder  in 
command  of  Homicide.  The  Traffic  Bu- 
rc.iu's  Lc3  Brennan  was  promoted  to  lieu- 
tL-iant  and  fills  the  civil  vacancy  created  by 
Nelder's  moving  up  to  deputy  chief. 

Patrolman  Joseph  Molinelli  of  North- 
ern Station  was  promoted  to  sergeant.  Pa- 
trolman Leon  Getchell  is  the  new  assistant 
i.nspector  in  the  Narcotics  Bureau. 

Captain  Martin  Lee  was  appointed  act- 
ing head  of  the  Traffic  Bureau,  during  the 
recent  fatal  illness  of  Captain  Ralph  Ol- 
stad  (see  story  on  page  6).  Olstad  was 
acting  for  Traffic  Director  Captain  Dan 
Kiely,  also  ill.

the  following  constitutes  rape?  (1)  the 
wife  of  the  perpetrator  if  she  resists  and 
the  act  is  committed  by  force;  (2)  A  con- 
senting female  nineteen  years  of  age;  (3) 
a  female  not  the  wife  of  the  perpetrator, 
where  she  resists  but  her  resistance  is  over-

ences led  to  a  fist  fight.  A  was  getting  the 
best  of  B  when  C,  a  friend  of  B's  arrived. 
C  handed  B  a  piece  of  iron  pipe  and  di- 
rected B  to  knock  A's  brains  out  with  it. 
B  struck  A  over  the  head  killing  him  in- 
stantly. Therefore  (1)  only  B  would  be 
guilty  of  any  crime;  (2)  A  started  a  quar- 
rel which  eventually  led  to  his  death  so 
no  one  could  be  held  on  a  charge  of  any 
crime;  (3)  C  would  be  considered  equally 
guilty  as  B;  (4)  this  is  a  clear  case  of 
first  degree  murder  while  B  is  only  guilty 
of  second  degree  murder.

attend  the  funeral  of  his  brother.  You 
could  permit  him  to  go:  (1)  if  an  officer 
were  assigned  to  accompany  him;  (2)  if 
a  legal  order  to  permit  him  to  go  were  ob- 
tained; (3)  if  he  had  no  previous  con- 
viction record;  (4)  if  the  funeral  were  to 
be  held  in  Los  Angeles;  (5)  if  his  family 
assumed  full  responsibility  for  his  return.

A  DA^■LIGHT  BURGLAR  is  subdued  by  Officer  Nieto  (righl)  and  two  fel- 
low offiiers.  Nieto  needed  an  assist  when  burglar  was  found  to  be  armed. 


By  Kathlkhn  Blair 


Rudy  Nieto  has  come  a  long  way  in 
five  years. 

19'i3 — a  new  group  of  recruits  begin 
their  job  at  the  various  police  districts 
around  San  Francisco. 

Nieto  was  among  those  sent  to  the 
Inglcside  Station.  Ingleside  commands  one 
of  the  largest,  loneliest,  and  coldest  areas 
of  all  the  sub-stations  in  the  city. 

Burglaries,  murders,  prowlers,  and  rob- 
beries predominate  in  this  area.  Ingleside 
Station  also  has  coverage  of  all  roads  leav- 
ing San  Francisco,  which  often  causes 
Ingleside  personnel  to  be  alerted  for  get- 
away cars  and  to  set  up  road  blocks. 

Played  Hunch 

19'5  5— New  Year's  Eve. 

It  was  cold,  toggy,  and  unusually  busy 
at  2  a.m.  Over  the  police  radio  came  the 
first  call  alerting  all  officers  to   "watch  for

an  old  green  Chevrolet  with  a  man  and  a 
woman.  Both  are  armed.  The  man  just 
murdered  another  man  at  Fillmore  and 
Eddy  Streets.  Suspect  is  dangerous.  " 

Nieto  decided  to  play  a  hunch.  His 
hunch  was  that  the  couple  would  try  to 
leave  town.  So  Nieto  parked  in  a  spot 
where  he  could  watch  traffic  going  out 
San  Jose  Avenue,  Dolores,  Valencia,  and 
Mission. 

Three  minutes  went  by  .  .  .  five  min- 
utes .  .  .  then  ten  minutes.  The  men  waited 
and  watched  as  hundreds  of  cars  came  by 
on  their  way  home  from  New  Year's  fes- 
tivities. Suddenly  an  old  green  Chevrolet 
rushed  past.  In  it  were  the  two  people 
described  in  the  police  alert. 

"That  one  looks  good  for  the  part," 
Nieto  said  to  his  partner  as  he  took  out 
after  the  Chevrolet.

Since  1933,  this  amazing 
young  man  has  won 
three  meritorious  awards 
and  15  commendations 


The  occupants  of  the  getaway  car  quick- 
ly noticed  they  were  being  followed. 
Wildly,  the  driver  roared  out  ahead  of 
the  cruiser,  his  grinding  gears,  racing  mo- 
tor, and  screeching  tires  echoing  through 
the  night.  Nieto,  his  siren  screaming  full 
blast,  began  his  approach.  The  chase  was 
on. 

After  nearly  two  miles  of  70  miles-per- 
hour  pursuit,  Nieto  curbed  the  green 
Chevy,  jumped  out  of  the  cruiser  and  ap- 
proached with  his  pistol  drawn. 

"Come  on  out  with  your  hands  up," 
ordered  Nieto. 

The  driver's  door  inched  slowly  open. 
Nieto  waited.

Don't  neglect  that  firearm 


Lack  of  proper  knowledge  of  the  care 
and  handling  of  firearms  by  its  personnel 
has  been  a  problem  of  all  Law  Enforce- 
ment agencies.  In  certain  departments, 
there  are  many  "old  timers"  who  lack  the 
proper  knowledge  either  because  of  im- 
proper training  or  because  they  ha\e  been 
in  the  department  so  long  that  they  assume 
the  attitude  that,  "they  know  it  all,"  but 
the  untrained  officers  who  are  recently  ap- 
pointed are  the  chief  offenders. 

Ninety-nine  per  cent  of  all  accidents 
with  firearms  are  caused  by  "the  gun  that 
wasn't  loaded."  Beware  of  that  gun!  It's 
dynamite  and  has  no  regard  for  its  victims. 
Many  a  man  is  either  under  the  sod  or 
crippled  for  life  because  of  that  gun. 

Caution — caution — caution,  should  be 
the  watchword  in  handling  any  gun.  Your 
gun  is  a  sacred  thing  and  should  be  treated 
as  such. 

There  are  only  two  places  for  action 
with  your  gun  —  on  a  pistol  range,  and 
to  protect  either  you  or  citizens  from 
immediate  threatening  serious  danger. 
Never  draw  your  gun  unless  you  are  forced 
to  use  it  for  the  protection  of  life,  limb. 
or  property,  and  be  certain  that  you  have 
the  legal  right  to  do  so.  The  life  of  any 
person  is  a  precious  thing  and  should  be 
preserved  at  all  costs.  Familiarize  yourself 
with  Penal  Code  sections  196  and  197, 
these  two  sections  should  be  memorized 
by  all  police  officers. 

Penal  Code  —  Section  196:  Killing  in 
Performance  of  Official  Duty  Justifiable. 

Homicide  is  justifiable  when  committed 
by  public  officers  and  those  acting  by  their 
command  in  their  aid  and  assistance 
either — 

1.  In  obedience  to  any  judgment  of  a 
competent  court;  or, 

2.  When  necessarily  committed  in  over- 
c lining  actual  re:istance  to  the  execution 
of  some  legal  process,  or  in  the  discharge 
of  any  other  legal  duty;  or, 

3.  When  necessarily  committed  in  re- 
tailing felons  who  have  been  rescued  or 
have  escaped,  or  when  necessarily  com- 
mitted in  arresting  persons  charged  with 
felony,  and  who  are  fleeing  from  justice  or 
resisting  such  arrest. 

Self-Defense  Shooting 
Penal  Code  —  Section  197:  Killing  in 
Defense  of  Self  or  Property,  in  Arrest- 
ing Fugutive  or  Quelling  Riot. 

Homicide  is  also  justifiable  when  com- 
mitted by  any  person  in  any  of  the  follow- 
ing cases: 

1.  When  resisting  any  attempt  to  mur- 
der any  person,  or  to  commit  a  felony,  or 
to  do  some  great  bodily  injury  upon  any 
person;  or, 


2.  When  committed  in  defense  of  habi- 
tation, property,  or  person,  against  one 
who  manifestly  intends  or  endeavors,  by 
violence  or  surprise,  to  commit  a  felony, 
or  against  one  who  manifestly  intends  and 
endeavors,  in  a  violent,  riotous  or  tumul- 
tuous manner,  to  enter  the  habitation  of 
another  for  the  purpose  of  offering  vio- 
lence to  any  person  therein;  or, 

3.  When  committed  in  the  lawful  de- 
fense of  such  person,  or  of  a  wife  or  hus- 
band, parent,  child,  master,  mistress,  or 
servant  of  such  person,  when  there  is  rea- 
sonable ground  to  apprehend  a  design  to 
commit  a  felony  or  to  do  some  great  bodily 
injury,  and  imminent  danger  of  such  de- 
sign being  accomplished;  but  such  person, 
or  the  person  in  whose  behalf  the  defense 
was  made,  if  he  was  the  assailant  or  en- 
gaged in  mutual  combat,  must  really  and 
in  good  faith  have  endeavored  to  decline 
any  further  struggle  before  the  homicide 
was  committed;  or, 

4.  When  necessarily  committed  in  at- 
tempting, by  lawful  ways  and  means,  to 
apprehend  any  person  for  any  felony  com- 
mitted, or  in  lawfully  suppressing  any  riot, 
or  in  lawfully  keeping  and  preserving  the 
peace. 

Be  thoroughly  familiar  with  the  opera- 
tion and  care  of  your  sidearm.  It  can  be 
your  best  friend  or  your  deadliest  enemy. 
Always  be  sure  that  you  are  in  the  right 
at  all  times  in  using  your  gun.  If  you  are 
forced  to  use  it  be  sure  that  you  can  use  it 
effectively.  Your  gun  should  be  used  for 
protection  only. 

It  is  only  the  stupid  or  "show-off"  po- 
lice officer  who  brandishes  and  displays 
his  gun  promiscuously.  Men  of  this  type 
are  usually  cowards  at  heart  and  either  use 
their  muscle,  or  loud  mouth,  or  gun  to 
effect  an  arrest,  apprehend  or  reprimand  a 
violator. 

Use  your  head  instead  of  your  gun  in 
effecting  an  arrest,  it  will  pay  greater  divi- 
dends. 

Keep  Gun  Clean 

For  many  years  cartridges  were  loaded 
with  black,  Lesmoke,  or  Semi-smokeless 
powder,  or  Smokeless  powder,  and  a  cor- 
rosive primer  and  there  was  no  question 
about  the  importance  of  prompt  and  thor- 
ough cleaning.  Either  it  was  done  or  the 
owner  of  the  firearm  had  a  rusted  or  pitted 
barrel.  This  care  holds  good  today  and  to 
keep  the  barrel  in  first-class  shape,  clean- 
ing must  be  done  as  soon  after  shooting 
as  possible.  Under  no  circumstances  should 
the  fouling  elements  of  ammunition  be 
allowed  to  remain  overnight  if  the  danger 
of  rusting  is  to  be  eliminated. 

Some  manufacturers  claim  that  with  the 


SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER,   19^8 


The  proper  care  and  feeding  of  police  firearms,  by  a  long-time  instructor 


modern  non-corrosive  smokeless  ammuni- 
tion the  danger  of  ruining  a  barrel  because 
of  lack  of  cleaning  is  past.  In  fact  many 
manufacturers  go  so  far  as  to  claim  that 
their  powder  acts  as  a  preservative  to  the 
barrel.  Careful  analysis  of  those  claims  by 
expert  research  shows  that  it  is  just  as  nec- 
essary to  clean  your  gun  today  as  it  has 
been  in  the  past.  Your  gun  is  a  vital  part 
of  your  trade — take  care  of  it.  Any  gun, 
regardless  of  the  ammunition  used,  should 
be  properly  cleaned,  oiled,  and  cared  for 
after  using  so  as  to  give  its  owner  the 
utmost  efficiency  at  all  times. 

A  manufacturer  goes  to  great  pains  to 
perfect  the  barrel  of  a  gun  as  to  size  and 
smoothness  as  is  mechanically  possible, 
with  the  lead  from  the  chamber  to  the 
rifled  bore  of  a  very  definite  size,  and  with 
the  bore  and  rifling  at  the  muzzle  even, 
sharp  and  clean.  Perhaps  all  this  care  is 
unnecessary,  but  until  it  is  proved,  it  is 
certain  that  different  results  will  be  ob- 
tained if  an  accumulation  of  lead,  bullet- 
jacket  and  lubricant  are  allowed  to  stay  in 
the  barrel.  Expert  marksmen  care  for  their 
gun  as  a  mechanic  would  care  for  his  ma- 
chine. 

In  cleaning  your  gun  it  is  necessary  that 
you  have  a  proper  sized  rod  and  a  solvent 
that  will  either  dissolve,  emulsify,  or  wash 
away  any  fouling  in  the  barrel.  \X'hatever 
is  used  must  be  used  in  a  way  that  will  not 
damage  the  bore.  Guns  with  a  solid  frame 
must  be  cleaned  from  the  muzzle  (auto- 
matics, Luger  types) ,  the  hinge  frame  type 
(single  shot  and  certain  solid-frame  re- 
volvers), can  be  cleaned  from  the  breech. 
It  is  recommended  you  clean  all  guns  from 
the  breech  whenever  possible.  Many  times 
it  is  necessary  to  take  the  slide  off,  or  if 
the  stock  overlaps  the  take-down  mechan- 
ism even  if  this  is  the  case,  clean  from  the 
breech  whenever  possible. 

Watch  Clhaning  Rod 

When  cleaning  from  the  muzzle  is  nec- 
essary, take  special  care  to  prevent  the 
cleaning  rod  from  rubbing  across  the  ends 
of  the  rifling.  This  usually  happens  when 
the  rod  is  first  inserted  into  the  bore.  It

can  be  prevented  by  holding  the  rod  up 
close  to  the  end  and  carefully  guiding  it 
into  the  bore.  Move  the  rod  slowly  and 
with  care,  let  ail  the  wear  come  from  the 
shooting.  Carefully  guided  at  suggested 
either  a  brass,  aluminum,  or  wooden  rod 
is  suitable. 

The  type  and  size  of  the  tip  of  a  clean- 
ing rod  is  of  far  more  importance  than  is 
usually  thought,  and  unless  right  will  make 
cleaning  dithcult. 

My  preference  for  hand  guns  is  the  but- 
ton tip,  but  the  bottom  should  be  made 
small  enough  to  permit  use  of  a  Canton 
flannel  or  birdseye  cloth  patch,  and  the 
neck  back  of  the  button  must  be  long 
enough  and  of  a  diameter  that  will  allow 
the  use  of  a  reasonable-sized  patch.  The 
tapering  necked  portion  of  a  rod  for  a  .22- 
caliber  barrel  can  be  a  full  inch  and  a  half 
long  to  good  advantage,  for  in  addition 
to  providing  room  for  a  good-sized  patch 
it  also  permits  getting  the  patch  well  start- 
ed into  the  bore  before  any  part  of  the  rod 
can  rub  on  the  edge  of  the  rifling. 

We  now  come  to  the  matter  of  the  sol- 
vent, and  we  can  dispose  of  this  item 
insofar  as  black  and  Lesmoke  powder  foul- 
ing is  concerned  by  simply  saying  that  wa- 
ter or  saliva  will  do  the  job  properly.  For 
Smokeless  powder  fouling  there  are  many 
commercial  solvents,  all  of  which  seem  to 
do  an  excellent  job.  The  Nitro  Solvent  de- 
veloped by  the  famous  rifle  shot  of  the 
early  1900's,  Dr.  Hudson,  is  extremely 
satisfactory.  Dr.  Hudson's  Nitro  Solvent 
is  made  up  of  the  following  ingredients 
in  proportions  shown: 

amyl  acetate  ...  1  part 
turpentine  ....  3  parts 
sperm  oil    .     .     .  10  parts 

acetone 3  parts 

neutral  kerosene  .  4  parts 

It  is  evident  that  all  of  the  other  mate- 
rials in  this  formula  are  more  volatile  than 
the  sperm  or  cylinder  oil,  and  that  after 
being  exposed  to  the  air  a  short  time  they 
will  evaporate,  leaving  the  gun  coated 
with  a  thin  film  of  oil.  In  many  instances 
this  film  is  sufficient  to  protect  the  arm

against  rusting,  especially  if  only  a  short 
time  is  to  pass  before  the  gun  is  used 
again.  If,  however,  the  gun  is  to  be  laid 
away  for  any  considerable  time,  it  should 
be  coated  inside  and  out  with  a  heavier 
grease  such  as  that  supplied  in  tubes  by 
most  of  the  arms  manufacturers  and  by  a 
number  of  other  concerns. 

Ni:i;d  Patchhs,  Cloih 
The  only  other  items  retjuired  are  patches 
and  a  piece  of  rather  heavy  cloth  saturated 
with  grease.  These  can  be  most  conveni- 
ently kept  in  porcelain  jars  with  screw 
tops  such  as  druggists  use  for  pastes  and 
ointments.  Fill  one  of  the  jars  just  men- 
tioned with  patches  and  then  pour  either 
solvent  or  oil  on  them  until  they  have 
absorbed  all  they  will  take.  In  this  way 
the  patches  are  all  ready  for  use  and  also 
eliminate  the  chance  of  a  broken  bottle.  If 
a  drop  of  oil  is  needed,  it  is  obtained  by 
simply  pinching  one  of  the  oil  soaked 
patches. 

While  the  actual  operation  of  cleaning 
a  gun  is  rather  a  dirty  job,  it  is  a  simple 
one,  and  inasmuch  as  a  little  soap  and 
water  will  quickly  remove  the  grime  from 
the  hands  there  is  no  reason  for  slighting 
it.  If  you  are  using  Lesmoke  ammunition, 
first  push  a  dry  patch  through  the  bore  and 
each  chamber  in  the  cylinder  to  get  rid  of 
the  loose  dirt.  Now  wet  a  patch  with  water 
or  saliva  and  swab  out  the  bore  and  cham- 
ber. Dry  both  with  dry  patches,  then  swab 
once  more  with  a  water-wet  patch.  Finally 
dry  and  finish  by  running  a  patch  satu- 
rated with  gun  grease  or  solvent  through 
the  bore  and  chambers.  Wipe  off  the  ends 
of  the  cylinder,  the  breech  of  the  barrel, 
and  any  other  spots  showing  fouling. 
When  this  is  done  wipe  off  the  outside  of 
the  gun  with  oil-soaked  cloth  and  lay  the 
gun  away  in  a  dry  place.  Do  not  store  it 
in  a  holster  or  wrap  it  in  paper  or  put  it 
in  a  pasteboard  box,  for  all  of  these  sub- 
stances absorb  moisture  and  can  cause  rust- 
ing. Wrap  your  guns  in  oil-soaked  cloths 
or  stand  them  in  a  gun  case  if  you  are  not 
going  to  carry  them  on  your  person.

Alcohol  dulls  driver 
judgment,  CHP  warns 

Drivers  under  the  influence  of  alcohol 
continue  to  present  a  problem  on  our  high- 
ways, says  the  California  Highway  Patrol. 

"During  the  first  five  months  of  this 
year,  drivers  who  had  been  drinking  were 
involved  in  an  average  of  one  accident 
every  30  minutes  on  the  rural  highways 
of  California,"  declared  Patrol  Commis- 
sioner B.  R.  Caldwell.  "This  includes 
those  who  were  obviously  drunk,  those 
under  the  influence,  and  those  who  had 
been  drinking  although  the  degree  of  im- 
pairment was  not  known. 

"Although  a  small  reduction  in  acci- 
dents involving  drinking  drivers  has  been 
experienced  thus  far  during  1958,  the 
driver  who  drinks  is  too  frequently  in- 
volved in  fatal  and  injury  accidents  which 
is  a  major  concern  to  enforcement  person- 
nel," Caldwell  stated.  "In  the  enforcement 
field,  the  Patrol  made  5,190  arrests  for 
drunk  driving  during  the  first  five  months, 
an  increase  of  30,  or  0.6%  compared  to 
1957. 

"Frequently  drivers  take  the  wheel  of  a 
motor  vehicle  after  a  few  drinks  thinking 
they  are  capable  of  meeting  any  emer- 
gency. Investigation  proves,  however,  that 
much  of  the  driving  while  under  the  in- 
fluence of  alcohol  can  be  attributed  to  a 
lack  of  realization  of  the  hazards  involved 
with  such  actions,"  he  continued. 

"When  a  situation  arises  calling  for 
fast,  accurate  judgment  and  action  to  avoid 
an  accident,  the  driver  who  has  been  drink- 
ing finds  his  reactions  slowed  to  the  point 
where  he  may  be  in  trouble."  The  Com- 
missioner concluded,  "The  best  and  safest 
policy  is  to  refrain  from  driving  if  you 
have  been  drinking."

San  Quentin  shows  arts  and  crafts 


The  free  and  unfettered  spirit  of  trea- 
tiveness  was  on  display  recently  inside  the 
big  iron  gates  of  San  Quentin  Prison. 

Occasion  was  the  inmates'  fourth  annual 
Arts  and  Crafts  Show,  but  was  the  first 
time  the  show  was  open  to  the  public. 
Dates  for  the  two-day  showing  were  Au- 
gust 23-2-4. 

Thousands  of  spectators  strolled  cas- 
ually among  the  cleverly-displayed  en- 
tries. If  a  person  didn't  notice  nearby 
guard  towers  and  stone  walls,  the  whole- 
thing  could  have  easily  passed  for  an  art 
show  in  Suburbia,  U.  S.  A. 

Most  Items  Sold 

Most  of  the  items  were  for  sale  anJ 
the  better  paintings  and  craftwork  were 
snapped  up  at  once.  However,  as  the  show 
entered  its  second  day,  large  areas  of  blank 
space  on  tables  and  walls  indicated  that 
the  public  was  really  much  pleased  with 
all  the  entries. 

Price  range  for  the  paintings  was  from 
^0  cents  to  S^O  and  craftwork  sold  for 
25  cents  to  SI 00.  Of  these  proceeds,  90 
per  cent  goes  to  the  inmate  artists  and  U) 
per  cent  goes  to  the  sponsoring  Inmate 
Council.  The  council  uses  it  for  prize 
money. 

Grand  Prize  Awarded 

For  the  most  part,  the  people  there  had 
come  for  art's  sake.  But  many  who  were 
just  curious  were  there,  too.  As  one  house- 
wife said  to  an  inmate-usher:  "My  hus- 
band and  I  cant  tell  a  tint  block  from  a 
cell  block,  but  we  think  it's  nice  that  jails 
encourage  this  sort  of  thing.  " 

A  judging  committee  of  inmates  award- 
ed the  grand  prize  to  Warren  Parker's  oil 
painting  of  a  cell  door  in  San  Quentins

Some  450  entries  were  displayed,  in- 
cluding oils,  water  colors,  tempera,  draw- 
ings, pastels,  sculpture,  architectural  de- 
sign and  various  handicrafts. 

Handicraft  instructor  G.  E.  Schmid 
stated  that  public  response  was  wonderful 
and  that  the  arts  and  crafts  staff  and  the 
inmates  were  immensely  pleased. 

A   somewhat   pathetic,   yet   frightening 


and  violent,  group  of  paintings  were  in 
the  category  entitled  "Projective  Drawing 
and  Psychotic  Art."  They  were  done  by 
inmates  undergoing  psychiatric  treatment. 
Hanging  calmly  in  a  group  at  the  end 
of  this  category  were  several  peaceful 
landscapes,  serene  home  scenes,  and  por- 
traits of  good-looking  women.  Appro- 
priately enough,  this  category  was  titled: 
"Recovery." 


EXHIBIT  BOARD  MAZE  was  set  up  in  the  sunlit  patio  ot  San  (^uentin's  recreation  building. 
Event  was  prison's  fourth  annual  arts  and  crafts  show,  but  was  first  time  showing  was  open  to 
public.  Huge  crowds  indicated  show  was  big  success.  Left :  metal  handicraft  is  displayed  on

The  August  matches  at  the  Oakland 
Club  were  held  under  conditions  that 
made  it  one  of  those  perfect  shooting  days. 
Nice,  sunny,  no  breeze,  and  21'>  shooters. 

It  seems  that  the  Highway  Patrol  team 
had  the  aggregate  scores  all  their  own  way 
with  Klipfel  taking  tirst  place  with  an 
863,  Captain  Boomhower  in  the  second 
spot  with  an  S6(),  and  Bob  Thomas  took 
third  prize  with  an  8'S6.  The  trio  also 
took  tirst  places  in  four  other  matches  and 
the  team  took  the  team  trophy.  There  were 
many  first  place  ties  in  many  matches.  The 
ties  had  to  be  broken  by  the  number  of 
shots  in  the  X  ring. 

Two  ladies  are  going  places  with  their 
shooting  ability.  Lois  Bowes  in  the  Expert 
Class  has  come  a  long  way  since  her  first 
shoot  about  six  years  ago,  and  little  Jo 
Carroll,  Master  Class,  is  giving  lots  of  the 
old  timers  plenty  to  worry  about. 

Received  a  card  from  Alma  &  John 
Bellera  from  Alaska  where  they've  been 
driving  the  Alcan  Highway  for  the  past 
two  months.

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS  JOURNAL 


New  law  for  turning  signals 


Letting  other  drivers  know  in  advance 
of  one's  intention  to  make  a  turn  is  a 
fundamental  rule  of  safe  driving.  Too 
many  drivers  do  not  signal  properly  or 
signal  during  or  after  they  make  the  turn- 
ing movement.  Others  signal  only  a  brief 
interval  before  they  execute  their  change 
of  course.  Obviously,  these  actions,  al- 
though better  than  none,  are  little  better 
than  making  no  signals  at  all. 

To  fully  conform  with  the  law,  a  driver 
should  never  turn  a  motor  vehicle  from  a 
direct  course  or  move  right  or  left  upon  a 
roadway  until  and  unless  the  movement 
can  be  made  with  reasonable  safety  and 
then  only  after  giving  the  appropriate 
signal  at  least  100  feet  in  advance  of  the 
maneuver.  That  is  the  new  law.  Formerly 
the  distance  for  giving  the  signal  in  ad- 
vance was  50  feet.  Experience  has  shown 
that  the  change  to  a  longer  distance  was 
necessary  to  assure  greater  safety  in  turn- 
ing movements,  particularly  on  freeways 
and  expressways  where  there  is  usually  a 
brisk  movement  of  traffic. 

War  On  Litterbugs 
The   war   on   the   litterbug   is   passing 
from  the  cold  to  the  hot  stage.  Every  mo- 
torist should  be  aware  that  a  new  section 
of  the  California  Penal  Code  authorizes 


any  city  or  county  to  pay  a  reward  for  in- 
formation leading  to  the  arrest  and  con- 
viction of  any  person  dumping  refuse  on 
highways  or  private  property. 

Many  cities  and  counties  have  already 
passed  such  ordinances.  Others  will  be 
doing  so  in  the  future.  Roadsides  are  not 
public  dumping  grounds  and  the  cost  of 
keeping  roadsides  clean  is  increasing. 
Cities  and  counties  rightfully  do  not  feel 
inclined  to  clean  up  at  growing  public 
expense  the  litter,  garbage  and  trash 
tossed  away  by  private  individuals  from 
motor  vehicles.  Patrolling  highways  all 
hours  of  the  day  and  night  to  catch  these* 
elusive  characters  disposing  of  their  trash 
at  other  people's  expense  would  also  be 
prohibitive,  so  the  new  law  was  passed  to 
help  community  authorities  enlist  the  aid 
of  the  public  in  apprehending  litterbugs. 
Freeway  Defined 

Added  to  the  California  Vehicle  Code 
is  the  new  definition  of  a  "freeway."  In 
its  exact  wording,  the  definition  reads: 
"  'Freeway'  is  a  highway  in  respect  to 
which  the  owners  of  abutting  lands  have 
no  right  or  easement  of  access  to  or  from 
their  abutting  lands  or  in  respect  to  which 
such  oweners  have  only  limited  or  re- 
stricted right  or  easement  of  access." 


(Continued  from  page  11) 
Firearms 

If  you  are  shooting  non-corrosive  Smoke- 
less ammunition,  proceed  as  described  for 
Lesmoke  but  use  Nitro  Solvent  instead  of 
water  for  swabbing. 

If  you  are  carrying  spare  ammunition, 
it  is  best  to  use  the  clipbox  instead  of  the 
old-fashioned  ammunition  belt.  Keep  your 
ammunition  clean  at  all  times.  Grime,  dirt 
and  grease  accumulates  rapidly  and  were 
an  emergency  to  arise,  you  might  have 
quite  a  time  reloading  your  gun.  Remem- 
ber cleanliness  of  your  gun  and  ammuni- 
tion might  mean  the  difference  between 
being  among  the  living  or  underneath  a 
headstone  in  the  cemetery. 

Practice  Shooting 

Success  in  pistol  shooting  is  not  depend- 
ent upon  remarkable  natural  physical  de- 
velopment or  coordination.  Expert  shots

are  not  expert  because  they  were  born  to 
be;  they  become  so  because  they  learn  by 
practice  and  study  to  do  the  job  of  hold- 
ing, aiming,  and  pressing  the  trigger  cor- 
rectly. 

Present-day  pistol  shooting  is  done  at 
three  different  distances.  The  indoor  range 
is  20  yards  in  length,  while  the  outdoor 
range  is  so  built  that  shooting  at  25  and 
50  yards  is  possible. 

It  will  be  seen  that  the  counting  circles 
in  the  2 5 -yard  target  (used  for  timed  and 
rapid  fire)  are  exactly  the  same  size  as 
those  in  the  50-yard  target.  The  targets 
are,  in  fact,  alike  except  that  on  the  25- 
yard  target  the  bullseye  contains  only  the 
9  and  10  rings,  while  in  the  50-yard  target 
the  8  ring  is  also  in  the  black  bulleeye. 

(The  excellent  advice  on  the  care  and 
use  of  death-dealing  weapons  was  pro- 
vided by  the  Peace  Officer  Training  Serv- 
ice in  Oakland.)

SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER,   ly-iS 


California's  penal  system  —yesterday  and  today 


(Editor's  Note:  This  is  Dr.  Stanley's  linal 
article  on  the  California  Department  of 
Corrections  and  is  continued  from  the  last 
issue  of  Thh  Journal.  Dr.  Stanley  here 
tells  of  the  enormous  increase  in  facilities 
during  the  70  years  from  1886-19')6.) 
1886 

The  closest  supervision  was  exercised 
over  both  the  convicts'  and  the  officers' 
kitchens  to  prevent  any  possible  food 
waste.  The  bill  of  fare  of  the  general  con- 
vict's table  was  enlarged  and  greatly  im- 
proved. Prisoners  yielding  extraordinary 
service  to  the  state  were  rewarded  by  seats 
at  a  special  table,  and  those  who  did  their 
best  in  the  lower  planes  of  labor  were 
given  certain  extra  allowances  from  the 
commissary. 

1956 

A  proper  diet,  carefully  supervised  and 
wholesomely  served,  is  an  important  fac- 
tor in  the  treatment  of  the  inmates,  both 
from  the  standpoint  of  preservation  of 
health  and  maintenance  of  morale.  It  is 
also  an  economy.  Such  a  program  means 
savings  in  the  purchase  of  food,  avoidance 
of  waste  and  a  reduction  of  the  chances  of 
dangerous,  costly  disturbances.  Despite  the 
constantly  rising  cost  of  food  that  has 
plagued  every  housewife,  the  average  daily 
cost  of  feeding  an  inmate  three  meals  a 
day  totals  only  68  cents.  A  large  share  of 
the  food  needs  are  met  by  purchases  from 
the  industries-operated  farms,  ranches  and 
dairies  at  the  institutions. 

Female  Prisoners 
1886 

The  addition  to  the  building  for  female 
prisoners  was  mentioned  in  our  last  re- 
port. Upon  its  completion,  the  Woman's 
department  was  entirely  reorganized.  A 
competent  Matron  was  placed  in  charge, 
sewing  machines  were  purchased,  and  all 
able  bodied  prisoners  allotted  daily  tasks. 
All  clothing  used  at  the  penitentiary  is 
now  stitched  in  this  department.  The  fe- 
male prisoners  were  distinctively  uniformed 
for  the  first  time,  as  the  law  contemplates, 
orderly  habits  have  been  enforced,  and 
the  atmosphere  of  the  institution — moral, 
social  and  physical  —  improved  in  every 
aspect.  There  is  no  matter  of  prison  re- 
form we  feel  more  justified  in  congratulat- 
ing ourselves. 

1956 

Since  the  summer  of  1952  the  institu- 
tion has  been  located  six  miles  west  of 
Corona.  It  was  necessary  to  activate  the  in- 
stitution at  Corona  prior  to  completion,  be- 
cause of  the  serious  earthquake  at  Tehach- 
api  on  July  21,  1952.  It  is  built  on  the  cot- 
tage plan,  consisting  of  two  cottage  units 
with  single  rooms  for  fifty  women.  The 


/';  Dr.  Li;o  L.  STANLl;^ 
Vornier  Chief  "Croaker"  at  San  Quentin  Penileiitiary 


present  capacity  is  454.  A  new  building  to 
house  120  women  is  under  construction 
along  with  additional  classroom  facilities. 

Sewing  is  the  main  industry.  The  gar- 
ment factory  is  modern  in  every  respect 
and  affords  good  training  for  women. 
Garments  manufactured  in  the  sewing  in- 
dustry may  be  sold  only  to  public  agencies. 
Visiting  Days 
1886 

Custom  had  long  tolerated  a  latitude  in 
the  way  of  \  isiting  the  prison  at  San  Quen- 
tin, unheard  of  in  any  similar  institution. 
Every  Sunday  the  grounds  were  crowded 
with  people,  most  of  whom  were  attracted 
by  morbid  curiosity  alone;  and  even  on 
weekdays  this  was  more  or  less  the  case. 
Prisoners  were  allowed  to  see  their  friends 
about  at  their  own  pleasure.  Grave  abuses 
arose  from  this  license.  The  traffic  in 
opium  and  other  contraband  articles  was 
facilitated,  discipline  was  demoralized  and 
the  officers  seriously  impeded  in  the  dis- 
charge of  their  duties.  Determined  to  cor- 
rect these  evils,  we  confined  visiting  to  the 
first  and  third  Sundays  of  the  month;  and 
in  order  to  effectually  check  the  introduc- 
tion of  opium,  a  wire  screen  was  placed  in 
the  reception  room  to  separate  prisoners 
and  visitors.  We  are  happy  to  say  that 
these  precautions  have  been  eflfectual  in 
excluding  contraband  articles  from  the 
yard,  and  in  doing  away  with  much  that 
was  undesirable  in  the  prison's  manage- 
ment. 

1956 

The  opening  of  the  California  Institu- 
tion for  men  (Chino)  in  1941  ushered  in 
a  new  concept  in  prison  design  and  opera- 
tion. It  is  a  prison  without  walls,  where 
there  are  no  officers  in  towers,  and  where 
inmates,  dressed  in  civilian  clothes  mingle 
with  their  guests  at  picnic  grounds  on  visit- 
ing days.  Control  of  the  inmate  is  main- 
tained by  careful  screening  so  that  only 
men  capable  of  profiting  by  its  program 
and  shouldering  its  responsibilities  are  sent 
there.  This  careful  classification  is  backed 
by  alert  and  skilled  staff  and  by  the  cer- 
tainty that  an  inmate  who  cannot  handle 
the  comparative  freedom  of  this  minimum 
security  institution  will  be  transferred  to 
another  institution. 

Insane  Patients 
1886 

Lastly,  but  most  especially,  we  need  an 
appropriation  for  a  building  for  the  crimi- 
nally insane.  There  is  at  neither  prison  quar- 
ters for  the  care  of  these  unfortunate  wards 
of  the  State.  This  is  particularly  true  of  the 
older  prison.  As  a  rule,  those  who  are  dis- 
ordered in  mind  are  disordered  in  body 
also. 


Yet  at  San  Quentin  there  are  no  better 
accommodations  for  these  poor  lunatics 
than  a  damp,  unwholesome,  dreary  alley, 
into  which  the  sunshine  never  comes,  and 
in  which  exuberant  health  must  soon  decay. 

The  law  provides  that  such  insane  may 
be  sent  to  either  of  the  two  lunatic  asy- 
lums, but  the  Resident  Physicians  have 
regularly  objected  to  receiving  them.  Their 
protests,  we  must  admit,  are  reasonable. 
Setting  aside  the  intractibility  of  such  pa- 
tients and  the  great  precautions  that  must 
be  taken  against  their  escape  it  is  unjust 
to  the  innocent  insane  that  they  should  be 
forced  to  associate  with  those  whose  in- 
firmity, as  a  rule,  is  the  result  of  their  own 
vices  and  ancestral  debasement. 

Such  an  association,  we  understand,  has 
a  most  disastrous  effect  upon  the  general 
inmates  of  Stockton  and  Napa  Asylums, 
and  we  cannot  blame  the  Resident  Physi- 
cians for  endeavoring  to  limit  it.  The  only 
remedy  lies  in  the  construction  of  proper 
quarters,  at  one  or  the  other  prison,  where 
the  criminally  insane  can  be  cared  for 
somewhat  after  the  manner  of  civilized  and 
humane  usages.  We  suggest  San  Quentin 
Prison  as  the  proper  site,  because  the  old 
hospital  building,  now  disused,  could  be 
turned  to  a  creditable  lunatic  asylum  at  a 
trifling  expense.  We  sincerely  hope  this 
appeal  may  not  be  in  vain  and  that  Your 
Excellency  will  lay  special  stress  on  this 
point  in  your  message  to  the  Legislature. 

1956 

A  unique  institution,  the  California 
Medical  Facility  has  custodial  and  legal 
features  of  a  prison,  but  the  staff  and 
climate  of  a  hospital.  The  Medical  Facility, 
a  special  unit  for  handicapped  male  oflfend- 
ers,  particularly  the  mentally  disabled,  was 
authorized  by  the  Legislature  during  1945. 
A  site  of  900  acres  near  Vacaville,  Solano 
County,  was  purchased  in  1948  and  con- 
struction began  in  1952. 

During  the  interim  a  limited  program 
was  established  in  1950  in  temporary 
quarters  at  the  former  Disciplinary  Bar- 
racks, San  Pedro,  California.  The  pro- 
gram, staff  and  some  equipment  were 
moved  to  Vacaville  during  April,  1955, 
where  the  normal  capacity  of  the  perma- 
nent facility  of  1,350  beds  has  been 
reached. 

The  institution,  presently,  exclusive  of 
the  Reception-Guidance  Center,  has  a  total 
of  332  employees.  The  complement  of 
patients  includes  approximately  200  tuber- 
culars,  200  psychotics,  150  homosexuals, 
100  drug  addicts,  400  sex  deviates  and  a 
variety  of  others  who  are  physically  and 
mentally  handicapped.

Many  California  motorists  when  stop- 
ped by  a  police  officer  or  highway  patrol- 
man for  violating  some  traffic  law  offer 
the  protest:  "I  didn't  know  that  was 
against  the  law." 

Ignorance  of  the  law,  of  course,  is  no 
exxuse,  and  for  this  reason  everyone  who 
drives  should  regularly  review  the  traffic 
laws  as  outlined  in  the  Vehicle  Code. 

Test  your  knowledge  by  answering 
these  questions  prepared  by  the  California 
State  Automobile  Association:  (Answers 
given  on  page  20.) 

1 .  Can  you  be  cited   for  driving  less  -"■ 
than  the  posted  limit? 

2.  Is  the  correct  signal  for  a  right  turn 
arm  held  up? 

3.  Is  it  permissible  to  park  alongside 
a  curb  painted  white  for  a  period  of  not 
more  than  10  minutes? 

4.  When  approaching  a  YIELD  sign  at 
an  intersection,  must  you  slow  to  at  least

He  fried  to  steal  San  Francisco 


Jose  Yves  Limantour  walkcil  mt^i  thu 
office  of  the  Board  of  Federal  Land  (lorn- 
missioners  in  San  Francisco  on  F'ehruary  ■>, 
1853,  and  presented  a  claim  that  stunned 
the  office  force  into  silence. 

His  apparently  valid  claim  was  to  four 
scjuare  leagues  of  land  in  and  near  San 
Francisco,  including  most  of  the  present 
downtown  district,  the  Farallones,  Alca- 
traz.  Verba  Buena,  the  Tiburon  Peninsula, 
and  more  than  600, 000  acres  of  land  in 
the  interior  of  California. 

The  sta^e  had  been  set  for  this  enor- 
mous fraud  by  the  strange  conditions  pre- 
vailing after  the  Mexican  War,  when 
Americans  were  taking  over  California, 
the  National  Automobile  Club  points  out. 
The  web  of  Spanish  and  Mexican  law  con- 
cerning property  w.is  a  weird  one  and  one 
that  was  heavily  entangled.  The  landmarks 
set  down  as  limits  of  the  various  proper- 
ties were  such  temporary  items  as  "a  steer 
skull  near  a  tree."  "a  tall  sycamore  at  the 
edgeof  the  river,"  or  "the  end  of  the  adobe 
wall."  Properties  so  delimited  were  set 
down  in  a  strange  legal  system  in  a  strange 
language,  and  most  frontier  lawyers  of  the 
day  knew  practically  nothing  of  this  law

or  this  i.mgu.igc. 

Onto  this  stage  stepped  Limantour  with 
his  claim.  A  native  of  F'rance  and  a  seafar- 
ing man,  he  presented  a  story  to  the  effect 
that  in  1843  he  had  given  certain  monies 
and  goods  to  Manuel  Micheltorena,  at  that 
time  Mexican  Covernor  and  Comman- 
dantc  (icneral  of  C;alift)rnia.  In  return  for 
these  favors,  Miiheltorena  had  given  Li- 
p.iantour  these  grants  of  land. 

To  buk  hi;  fantastic  claim,  Limimtour 
had  an  array  of  official  letters  and  docu- 
ments signed  by  Micheltorena,  Bocanega, 
then  Minister  of  Exterior  Relations  for 
Mexico,  and  President  Arista  of  Mexico, 
the  last  letter  addressed  in  1S52  to  the 
Board  of  I'ederal  Land  Commissioners  and 
comnicnding  the  claim. 

Stumped  by  this  array  of  official  docu- 
ments, the  Land  Commission  was  about  to 
hand  over  San  Francisco  to  Limantour. 
Certain  Federal  properties,  however,  such 
.IS  the  Presidio  and  the  custom  house,  were 
involved,  and  the  United  States  Govern- 
ment decided  to  take  a  hand  in  the  pro- 
ceedings. Congress  set  aside  $200, 000  to 
investigate  the  matter  and  sent  Edwin  M. 
Stanton,  later  Secretary  of  War  under  Lin-

coin,  to  conduct  the  investigation. 

Stanton  did  a  remarkable  job.  He  col- 
lected old  land  grant  records  from  all  cor- 
ners of  the  city  and  from  all  sorts  of  de- 
caying containers.  He  organized  these  into 
bound  volumes.  He  collected  all  the  evi- 
lience  o(  any  kind  he  could  possibly  find. 

With  this  before  him,  Stanton  discov- 
ered that  the  kind  of  paper  that  bore  Mich- 
eltorena's  signature  just  didn't  exist  in  the 
Western  United  States  at  the  supposed 
time  of  the  signing.  He  also  discovered 
that  the  "official  seal"  appearing  on  the 
Limantour  papers  appeared  nowhere  else 
on  the  official  papers  emanating  from 
Monterey. 

The  claim  was  then  revealed  as  an  enor- 
mous conspiracy  involving  a  former  gov- 
ernor of  California  and  a  former  member 
of  the  Mexican  cabinet. 

A  Federal  Grand  Jury  indicted  Liman- 
tour for  fraud.  He  put  up  $30,000  bail 
and  fled,  carrying  with  him  some  $300,- 
000  that  the  citizens  of  San  Francisco  had 
paid  him  in  good  faith  to  clear  title  to 
their  land. 

Thus  closed  what  might  have  turned  out 
to  be  "the  most  stupendous  fraud  in  the 
history  of  the  world."

had  it  pointed  right  at  Nieto's  stomach. 
"Drop  it  or  I'll  shoot,  "  shouted  Nieto. 
Both  men — both  armed — played  a  ma- 
cabre game  of  cat  and  mouse,  each  waiting 
and  trying  to  back  the  other  down.  Nieto 
out-bluffed  his  opponent  with  sheer  bra- 
vado.  The  suspect   dropped   his  gun   on 
the  car  seat  and  got  out,  hands  raised  high. 
He  was  through,  he'd  had  it,  he  said. 
Killer  Sentenced 
It   wasn't   over,    however,    for   Nieto. 
The  suspect's  girl  friend  got  out  and  calm- 
ly   pointed    another   pistol — this    one    at 
Nieto's  heart.   He  called  her  hand,   too, 
and  she  gave  up.   The  driver,  his  com- 
panion,   and   another   couple   in    the   car 
were  all  arrested.  The  killer  is  now  serving 
a  long  term  at  San  Quentin. 

The  above  incident  is  typical  of  Nieto's 
five  years  of  police  service.  His  record 
now  includes  three  meritorious  awards  and 
15  commendations.

hosted  hundreds  of  distinguished  visitors 
on  cruises  around  the  Bay,  greeted  new 
liners,  and  welcomed  naval  units. 

The  new  Marine  Division  will  supple- 
ment the  Sheriffs  Air  Squadron  and  the 
Mounted  Posse.  "Vincent  Raney  is  adjutant 
of  the  squadron  and  Jack  Mailliard  is  cap- 
tain of  the  posse. 


The  Sheriff's  Office  of  the  City  and 
County  of  San  Francisco  now  can  say 
truthfully  that  it  can  work  on  land,  on 
the  sea,  and  in  the  air. 

Landlubbing  deputies  they've  had  for 
quite  some  time.  They've  also  utilized  an 
air  squadron  and  a  mounted  posse. 

But  it  wasn't  until  recently  that  the 
Sheriff's  Office  finally  got  its  own  Marine 
Division.  Sheriff  Matt  C.  Carberry  offi- 
cially deputized  13  captains  of  the  Great 
Golden  Fleet,  San  Francisco  Chamber  of 
Commerce. 

Mayor  Attends 
Brief  ceremonies  honoring  the  captains 
and  authorizing  them  to  aid  in  law  en- 
forcement in  San  Francisco  Bay  took  place 
aboard  the  Adventuress.  The  yacht  belongs 
to  Commodore  Dan  London  and  is  the 
flagship  of  the  fleet.  It  was  anchored  off 
Angel  Island,  a  tip  of  which  forms  the 
northeastern  limit  of  San  Francisco  County.

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS  JOURNAL 


hy  Abe  Rabinowitch 

Editor's  Note:  Mr.  Rabinowitch  has 
been  in  the  process  serving  business  since 
1946.  He  and  his  stajf  have  served  over 
a  quarter  million  documents. 

I'm  in  the  business  of  tucking  cold 
court  papers  into  hot  little  hands. 

These  papers  have  chilly  words  on 
them,  such  as  "Summons,"  "Subpoena," 
"Order  To  Show  Cause."  The  people  re- 
ceiving them  don't  always  do  so  happily. 

As  a  result,  I've  been  chased  with 
knives,  spears,  broomsticks  and  guns.  I've 
also  been  treated  to  drinks — and  received 
the  Gypsy  Curse  in  three  languages. 

One  man  I  served  with  an  order  started 
tearing  the  hair  out  of  his  beard.  A  woman 
once  threw  a  valuable  vase  at  me — then 
sat  down  and  told  me  the  story  of  her 
life.  Cleaned  up,  it  would  have  gone  over 
great  in  True  Confessions  Magazine. 

Legitimate  Tricks 

Just  about  anyone  is  liable  to  be  tagged 
with  legal  papers.  I've  served  distin- 
guished senators  and  ordinary  citizens; 
movie  stars  and  swindlers,  baritones  and 
barristers. 

Financiers   have   shaken   my   hand — to 


Confessions  of  a  process  server 


find  themselves  holding  a  summons. 

Recently  I  served  the  president  of  a 
great  automotive  empire.  I've  used  all  the 
tricks  in  the  book — legitimate,  that  is — to 
bring  suspicious  folks  out  of  hiding.  I've 
called  "Delivery  service!"  outside  apart- 
ment doors,  and  handed  out  rose  bouquets 
concealing  legal  documents.  I've  pegged 
summons-wrapped  rocks  through  win- 
dows, and  chased  Prominent  Names  about 
hotel  lobbies. 

Once  I  made  up  like  a  fish  peddler  to 
catch  a  black  marketeer.  And  once  I  was 
inside  a  delivery  van  when  a  load  of  fur-' 
niture  was  delivered  to  a  notorious  proc- 
e:sducker. 

Diva  Served  On  Stage 

I've  even  sung  opera  for  my  attorney- 
clients.  A  famous  Wagnerian  diva  was 
giving  a  one-night-only  performance  at 
our  local  opera  house.  Madame  had  been 
alerted  to  us.  Practically  all  the  twenty 
process  servers  who  operate  out  of  my  of- 
fice tried  to  serve  her,  but  couldn't  get 
past  the  army  of  agents,  directors,  man- 
agers, and  assorted  long-hairs. 

So  I  went  to  a  costumer,  rented  the 
latest  thing  for  Olympian  gods,  and  walk-

ed  backstage  with  the  rest  of  the  supers. 
■While  the  orchestra  blared  the  melody  and 
Madame  pitched  her  arpeggios,  I  walked 
on  stage  and  handed  her  the  paper.  Never 
missing  a  measure,  she  warbled,  "Was  ist 
los.' "  I  took  a  highly  operatic  stance,  and 
loosed  a  chesty  "Das  ist  kleine  summons- 
2o!  " 

Madame  makes  music  that  is  definitely 
not  in  the  script,  and  comes  after  me  with 
her  spear!  Our  client  was  grateful,  but 
he  never  did  understand  the  extra  charge 
for  Band-Aids.  That  spear  was  sharp! 

Newly-weds  A  Problem 

Some  persons  take  an  entirely  different 
attitude.  Back  in  1946  when  my  brother 
Maury  and  I  were  just  getting  started  in 
process  serving,  he  said,  "Abe,  can  you 
stop  by  on  your  way  home  and  serve  this 
Mrs.  Pottsworth.'  She's  being  sued  for 
clothes  she  bought  when  she  worked  as  a 
model  before  her  mariage  last  month." 

It  was  a  nice  apartment  and  the  man 
who  let  me  in  looked  fairly  prosperous.  I 
said,  "I'd  like  to  see  Millie.  It's  personal.  " 

Well,  he  gave  me  a  sub-zero  look,  said 
she  was  taking  a  bath,  and  that  he'd  call

The  inside  story  of  an  important  service 


her.  Pretty  soon  he  comes  back  and  we 
smoke  several  nervous  cigarettes.  After  a 
while  Mrs.  Pottsworth  enters,  all  dressed 
up  tor  visitors.  A  real  doll,  but  worried. 

She  looks  at  me.  We  all  look  at  each 
other.  Then  1  hand  her  the  summons.  She 
stares  a  minute  then  starts  laughing. 
"Look,  honey,  it's  only  a  summons  I"  He 
starts  to  beam.  "Oh,  is  th,il  all!"  They 
both  start  talking  and  explaining  how  he 
thought  I  was  her  Past,  and  she  thought 
that's  just  what  he'd  think,  and  how  re- 
lieved they  both  were. 

Operation  Narrowed 

Can  you  succcsstully  duck  the  process 
server .' 

Sometimes  a  man  or  woman  can  man- 
age to  stall,  but  sooner  or  later  he'll  be 
tagged. 

I've  had  cases  where  expenses  were  un- 
limited. I've  placed  one  man  near  the  sub- 
ject's home,  another  near  his  office,  an- 
other at  his  garage,  at  his  favorite  bar, 
bookie,  and  girl  friend's  apartment,  each 
armed  with  a  copy  of  that  important  white 
paper.  Given  enough  information,  we  can 
narrow  our  operation  to  a  timed  event — 
such  as  the  time  of  plane  arrival  or  depar- 
ture. When  he's  due  at  the  theater,  party, 
or  job.  It's  very  seldom  a  person  can  or 
will  pull  up  stakes  and  leave  town. 

Most  of  us  are  geared  to  routine,  and 
once  a  process-server  learns  those  routines, 
it's  just  a  matter  of  time  and  patience. 
Most  attorneys  advise  their  summons- 
ducking  clients:  "There's  no  point  in  try- 
ing to  hide  out.  Relax  and  accept  the  paper 
gracefully." 

Case  of  the  Strangler 

You  never  know  what  to  expect  from  a 
day's  route.  You  might  get  a  kick  in  the 
pants,  or  a  bunch  of  bananas.  I've  had 
both.  Sometimes  the  cases  that  look  easy 
are  actually  the  tough  ones.  On  the  other 
hand,  there  was  Strangler  Jarvis,  an  ex- 
bone-breaker  who'd  been  bounced  on  his 
head  a  little  too  often.  I  rang  his  doorbell. 
He  stuck  his  pin  head  out  an  upstairs  win- 
dow. "Hah!"  he  growled.  "Process  server! 
You  wait!" 

I  waited. 

A  minute  later  he  opened  the  door, 
pointing  the  largest  shotgun  I  have  ever 
had  pointed  at  my  middle.  "Get  out!  Or 
I  bloiv  you  to  pieces!" 

He  had  a  good  idea  there.  I  got  out  and 
thought  about  Strangler  while  making 
some  other  calls.  So  I  went  to  a  phone 
booth  and  called  him.  "Look,  Jarvis,  you 
did  an  illegal  act.  It's  against  the  law  to 
point  guns  at  people.  Especially  when 
they  wear  glasses.  'You  could  go  to  jail." 
There  was  a  long  pause.  "The  law  don't 
like  it.' " 


"The  law  gets  very  unhappy  about  it. 
You  don't  want  the  law  unhappy  with  you, 
do  you.-' "  "No,"  he  says.  "I'm  sorry.  You 
come  back.  I  take  the  paper."  So  I  went 
back,  he  took  the  paper,  apologized,  shook 
hand,  and  I  went  back  to  the  office. 
Early  Service 

As  a  matter  of  fact,  our  three  Attorneys 
Messenger  Service  offices  do  more  than 
serve  individual  papers.  A  firm  of  attor- 
neys called  us  in  when  a  law  suit  involved 
a  large  partnership.  Porty-two  executives 
had  to  be  served  with  an  assortment  of 
papers — all  at  once! 

We  lined  up  process  servers  at  five  one 
morning.  Several  cars  dropped  them  oflf 
at  42  addresses.  Promptly  at  six  a.m.,  they 
all  moved.  Forty-two  sleepy  individuals 
staggered  to  front  doors  to  find  themselves 
clasping  sheafs  of  legal  papers.  By  six- 
thirty  the  boys  were  phoning  in  to  say  the 
job  was  done. 

A  divorce  case  proved  even  more  intri- 
cate. Lawyers  wanted  to  serve  papers  on  a 
San  Francisco  bank  in  which  the  husband 
had  concealed  funds.  But  which  bank.' 
There  are  I'JO  banks  and  branches  in  the 
city.  Well,  restraining  orders  were  pre- 
pared and  the  moment  the  bank  doors 
opened  next  morning,  150  men  and  wom- 
en walked  into  HO  banks  and  served  150 
officials.  Results?  Not  one,  but  two  fat 
accounts  were  revealed  in  the  errant  hus- 
band's name! 

Biggest  job  we  ever  had  was  to  serve 
14,500  papers  for  a  government  agency. 
There  were  four  big  packing  cases  full, 
and  our  office  staff  worked  to  midnight 
for  a  week,  indexing,  and  arranging  docu- 
ments according  to  street  addresses.  The 
boys  worked  all  weekend,  and  by  Sunday 
night  14,500  persons  were  served. 

What  Summons  Can  Mean 

But  it's  the  individual  services  you  can't 
figure.  A  summons  can  mean  many  things 
to  the  person  who  gets  one.  It  may  be  a 
divorce,  or  a  claim  for  an  auto  collision, 
or  an  unpaid  bill,  or  a  court  order  to  move 
a  fence,  or  build  a  wall,  or  quit  keeping 
geese  in  your  back  yard. 

A  circus  wild-man  wouldn't  let  his  wife 
listen  to  Liberace  and  she  took  legal  ac- 
tion against  him.  He  was  working  at  a 
carnival.  He  spotted  me,  ducked,  and 
climbed  to  the  top  of  one  of  those  test- 
your-strength  gizmos,  about  twenty  feet 
high.  He'd  have  kicked  me  down  if  I 
tried  to  follow,  and  showed  all  signs  of 
spending  the  night  there.  Not  far  off  is 
an  East  Indian  gentleman  with  a  large- 
sized  elephant.  We  made  a  deal.  The  ele- 
phant wraps  his  nose  around  me,  lifts  me 
up,  and  I  hand  Wild  Man  his  paper.  Four 
pounds  of  peanuts  scjuared  me  with  the

Then  there  was  a  merchant  sailor 
known  as  "Roving  Eye,"  named  defend- 
ant by  a  young  lady  who  claimed  he  was 
responsible  for  her  unplanned  but  immi- 
nent motherhood.  I  met  his  ship,  and  had 
him  pointed  out.  He  acted  like  he  had  a 
paternity  suit  pending  in  every  port,  be- 
cause he  took  off  with  me  in  pursuit.  We 
made  a  fast  tour  of  the  ship.  He  hit  a  wet 
spot  on  the  deck  and  skidded  into  a  cap- 
stan. I  skidded  too,  but  managed  to  tuck 
the  papers  in  his  hand  as  I  whizzed  by.

Some  folks  take  their  summons  pretty 
seriously.  In  a  divorce  case,  the  man  was 
an  ex-con.  He'd  been  in  State  peniten-

terms."  I  couldn't  believe  what  Id  heard 
when  I  saw  him.  A  little  bit  of  a  skinny 
guy,  not  quite  five  feet  tall,  and  maybe  a 
hundred  pounds  with  his  shoes  on.  I 
walked  over,  handed  him  the  summons. 
He  looked  at  me  kind  of  sad-like.  I  turned 
and  started  away. 

Some  premonition  must  have  made  me 
turn.  Here  he  is  with  a  razor-edged  clasp- 
knife  in  his  pinkie.  I  grabbed  him  and 
began  hollering  "cop."  The  blue-coats 
came  and  gathered  him  up.  He  hadn't 
touched  me  with  the  knife,  but  you  should

Personal  Delivery 
I'm  sometimes  asked  why  we  have  to 
go  through  all  this  nonsense  of  "personal 
delivery."  Why  not  mail  the  papers?  Or 
leave  them  under  the  door  ? 

There's  a  very  good  reason.  The  papers 
I  ser\e  put  people  on  notice  that  some 
important  legal  action  has  been  taken 
against  them.  They  get  a  chance — usually 
a  certain  number  of  days — to  contest  the

action.  If  they  don't,  the  court  has  to 
assume  they  have  no  defense.  And  it  rules 
against  them.  The  court's  decision  may  in- 
volve big  money  or  important  property 
rights. 

There's  too  much  at  stake  to  depend  on 
careless  or  casual  delivery  of  notices.  The 
law  insists  on  a  sworn  affidavit  by  some 
responsible  citizen  saying  that  the  papers 
were  "persoihilly  iieliiered  to  ,iiicl  lejl 
with"  the  proper  person.  That  way, 
chances  for  mistakes  or  fraud  is  greatly 
reduced.

It's  always  safer 

dealing  only  with 

people  you  know 

and  can  trust 


OUR  THANKS  to  .ill  of  you  who  wrote, 
phoned,  or  otherwise  let  us  know 
that  you  liked  the  September-October  issue 
of  Thi:  Polick  &  Pi-ace  Officers  Jour- 
nal. We  benefited  from  your  suggestions, 
your  constructive  criticisms,  and  from  your 


f     What' 


tisers  have  tailh  in  us,  and  also  because 
our  Advertising  Representatives  have 
worked  hard  to  make  it  a  success. 

Recently,  however,  our  representatives 
began  running  into  all  sorts  of  problems. 
Some  of  our  so-called  competition  is  sys- 
tematically trying  to  smear  other  maga- 
zines of  this  type.  These  people,  in  their 
best  beady-eyed,  wet-lipped  manner,  often 
spread  half-truths,  even  one-quarter 
truths,  but  mostly  just  bald-faced  lies 
about  Tm-:  Journal  and  its  official  rep- 
resentatives. 

Mud-Slin(;ers  At  Work 

The  mud-slingcrs  say  that  ours  is  a 
"phony"  publication.  This  by  itself  is 
enough  to  expose  their  tactics.  Just  plain 
common  sense  points  out  the  glaring  fact 


cards.  This  world  has  come  to  a  sorry  pass, 
indeed,  when  a  policeman  or  a  peace  of- 
ficer can  be  intimidated  by  the  purchase 
of  a  magazine  advertisement. 

The  trouble-makers  use  another  cheap 
trick  .  .  .  that  of  bootlegging  our  station- 
ery. They  11  use  faked  (ontracts  and  re- 
ceipts to  dupe  the  unwary  businessmen 
into  believing  they  are  dealing  with  Tm: 
Police  &  Peace  Offici:rs  Journal. 
(Sample  of  faked  receipt  is  shown  below.) 
A  Warning  To  Advertisers 

For  many  years.  The  Journal's  staff 
box  has  carried  a  warning  stating  that 
businessmen  should  not  deal  with  agents 
unknown  to  them  or  who  cannot  present 
properly  signed  credentials  on  our  station- 
ery. If  there  is  still  some  doubt,  Thi: 
Journal  office  is  always  glad  to  handle 
any  and   all   inquiries.   First  of  all,  how- 


s  going  on  arou 


ndh 


ere? 


comments  in  general.  It  is  our  sincere 
hope  that  The  Journal  continues  to 
grow  and  progress  as  it  has  in  the  past, 
and  that  it  will  continue  to  merit  your 
readership  and  support. 

It  would  appear  to  be  smooth  sailing 
from  here  on.  But  whoever  coined  that 
phrase  apparently  never  heard  of  the  pub- 
lishing business. 

Magazines  Must  Make  Money 

The  Journal  is  an  independent  mag- 
azine using  the  printed  word  to  furnish 
a  two-way  means  of  communications  be- 
tween all  law  enforcement  agencies  in 
California  and  Nevada.  The  magazine  is 
published  by  tax-paying  private  enterprise. 
In  fact,  we  are  no  different  from  the  rest 
of  the  police-type  magazines  ...  all  of 
them  are  a  business  venture  and  have  to 
make  money  in  order  to  continue  pub- 
lishing. 

We  are  not  putting  out  a  social  maga- 
zine, a  political  magazine,  a  charity  maga- 
zine, or  a  "shake-down"  magazine.  Our 
Advertising  Representatives  sell  adver- 
tising space,  nothing  else  .  .  .  they  have 
not  and  will  not  sell  ads  on  a  so-called 
"protection"  basis.  The  Journal's  Ad- 
vertising Representatives  have  been  doing 
a  most  competent  and  efficient  job  for  the 
past  36  years. 

The  Journal  Is  Their  Target 

The  Journal  has  been  built  into  one 
ot  the  best  police-type  magazines  in  the 
West,   mainly   because   our   many   adver- 


that  we  couldn't  have  stayed  in  business 
since  1922  if  we  were  "phony."  Our  many 
shelves  of  bound  back  issues  of  The 
Journal  is  our  answer. 

Some  of  these  self-appointed  protectors 
of  the  public's  business  morals  further  in- 
sult the  advertiser's  intelligence  by  hand- 
ing out  so-called  "protection"  cards.  Ob- 
viously, the  inference  here  is  that  the  ad- 
vertiser will  be  given  special  treatment  or 
special  privileges  by  law  enforcement 
agencies. 
Beware  of  "Protection"  Cards 
It  just  doesn't  work  that  way,  and  The 
Journal  hereby  warns  advertisers  about 
these    worthless,    so-called    "protection" 


ever,  make  sure  you're  dealing  with  Thi; 
Police  &  Pi:ace  Officers  Journal — 
so  many  police-type  publications  today 
have  very  similar  names. 

Many  People  Have  Helped  Us 
At  this  time  of  year,  however,  we're 
eager  to  forget  our  problems  and  woes, 
such  as  they  are.  Instead  The  Journal 
wishes  to  thank  the  many  police  depart- 
ments and  other  law  enforcement  agencies, 
the  many  civic  groups,  and,  of  course, 
our  many  advertisers.  All  of  you  have  been 
very  considerate  and  helpful  to  our  mag- 
azine during  1958. 

Our  best  wishes  for  a  happy  and  pros- 
perous New  Year.

Thousands  of  lucky  people  are  learning  why  San  Bernardino  County  is  called 

The  linger  longer  land 


EVFRV  ONCE  IN  A  « HILE,  the  well- 
meaning,  civic-minded  folk  of  an 
area  seem  to  get  completely  carried  away 
when  telling  about  their  particular  part  ot 
the  country.  To  hear  them  tell  it,  their  own 
neck  ot  the  woods  is  "it  I" 

However,  most  residents  of  San  Ber- 
nardino County  feel  that  their  own  praise, 
plus  that  of  many  visitors,  is  easily  backed 
up  by  the  numerous  advantages  offered  by 
this  Southern  California  community. 

Any  inspection — even  a  brief  one,  if 
this  is  possible — shows  clearly  why  so 
many  people  now  live  in  San  Bernardino 
County.  You'll  also  see  why  so  many  more 
people  keep  moving  in  every  day. 
In  Excellent  Location 

Plenty  of  room,  a  healthy  climate,  great 
scenic  grandeur,  fertile  land,  plus  an  c\ 
ceptionally  fine  geographic  location  h.u 
made  San  Bernardino  County  into  .i 
"linger  longer  land"  for  many  new  people 
and  many  new  industries. 

Policing  the  County — its  20, n7  square 
miles  make  it  the  largest  county  in  area  in 
the  United  States — is  understandably  a 
huge  job.  But  skillful  and  efficient  law 
enforcement  is  a  well-known  trade  mark 
of  the  County,  in  its  beautiful  county 
seat — the  City  of  San  Bernardino — and  in 
the  many  other  thriving  towns  throughout 
the  County. 

The  faith  and  confidence  of  this  re- 
gion's citizens  is  squarely  behind  Sheriff 
Frank  Bland  and  Chief  of  Police  James 
W.  Ellis  of  the  City  of  San  Bernardino. 
Both  Bland  and  Ellis  have  close  coopera- 
tion from  their  men — it  is  this  team  spirit 
which  has  brought  such  excellent  law  and 
order  to  this  ever-growing  and  rapidly- 
expanding  area. 

Population  experts  figure  that  about 
S.OOO  people  go  to  Southern  California 
each  week,  65  per  cent  of  them  entering 


California  'As  Advertised  " 

A  big  portion  of  this  wave  of  humanity 
usually  discovers  that  the  County  is  just 
what  they've  always  seen  in  the  m.igazine 
advertisements  and  billboards  publicizing 
Southern  California.  In  fact,  the  well- 
known  publicity  photo — the  one  showing 
heavily-laden    orange    trees    in    the    fore- 


ground and  glistening  snowcapped  moun- 
tains in  the  background — was  taken  in 
San  Bernardino  County. 

Coming  into  the  County,  the  out-of- 
state  visitor  usually  sees  for  the  first  time 
the  profusion  of  pepper  trees,  eucalyptus, 
palms,  roses,  and  many  other  flowers  and 
through  San  Bernardino  County.

Desert  Area  Developed 

A  study  of  current  population  figures  is 
enough  to  indicate  that  plenty  of  these 
people  apparently  were  so  pleased  with 
what  they  saw  in  San  Bernardino  County 
that  they  decided  to  live  there.  For  ex- 
ample, in  the  years  from  1930  to  1957,  the 
population  jumped  from  281,642  to  425,- 
000. 

The  tremendous  development  of  the  so- 
called  "desert"  area  is  a  major  factor  in 
the  growth  of  San  Bernardino  County. 

Development  of  the  numerous  dude 
ranches  first  sparked  the  movement.  To- 
day, every  section  of  the  great  Mojave 
Desert  has  thriving  communities  with  at- 
tractive homes,  schools,  churches,  and 
modern  downtown  areas.  Impressive  pop- 
ulation increases  have  been  recorded  at 
Barstow,  Victorville,  29  Palms,  and  in  the 
other  older  communities.  Several  new  com- 
munities have  sprung  up. 

Variety  of  Sports  Offered 

Another  factor  which  has  always  been  a 
selling  point  for  San  Bernardino  County 
is  the  area's  magnificent  location — in  the 
space  of  a  few  hours  one  may  go  skiing  in 
the  mountains,  relax  at  one  of  the  many 
fine  desert  resorts,  ride  along  lonesome 
desert  trails,  or  go  swimming  in  the  ocean. 

Farming  and  ranching  have  also  been 
important  factors.  It  has  been  found  that 
water  is  plentiful  and  close  to  the  surface 
in  most  of  the  desert  area.  Also,  the  Mo- 
jave River  is  now  an  important  water 
source.  There  is  the  possibility,  too,  that 
the  proposed  Feather  River  project  will 
bring  more  water  to  the  Mojave. 

Perhaps  an  even  greater  impact  on  the 
area's  economy  has  been  the  great  surge 
of  both  heavy  and  light  industries  into 
Southern  California. 

County  Board  of  Trade 

A  good,  workable,  arrangement  has 
been  set  up  between  the  civic  and  busi- 
ness leaders  of  the  entire  County.  These 
two  groups  have  pooled  their  efforts  to 


LAKE  ARROWHEAD  provides  numerous 
water  sports.  Lake  is  one  of  12  lakes  in  the 
San  Bernardino  Mountains.

provide  every  facility  in  attr.utin^  .idili- 
tion.il  m.inut.Kturing  plants,  distributing 
agencies,  and  new  residents.  The  .i^ency, 
known  as  the  San  Bernardino  County 
Board  of  Trade,  was  set  up  by  the  County 
Board  of  Supervisors.  It  is  fully  finanLed 
by  taxpayers  and  is  successfully  brin^in^ 
about  an  orderly  dc\'elopment  ot  indus- 
trial, commercial,  and  residential  zones. 

San  Bernardino  County's  claim  to  fame 
is  not  merely  size.  It  has  the  basic  raw 
materials  for  a  wide  variety  of  manufac- 
tured ^oods.  No  other  country  and  few 
other  states  tan  claim  as  wide  a  variety  of 
metallit  and  non-metallic  minerals.  The 
year     round    ^rowin^    season    and    fertile 


soils  produce  nearly  e\ery  product  that  can 
be  grown  in  a  temperate  climate.  Also,  in 
the  great  mountain  area  of  the  C^junty 
there  are  millions  of  feet  of  timber  that 
await  the  axe  of  the  woodsman. 

Word  of  Mouth  Pubi.ichy 

rile  citizens  of  San  Bernardino  County 
don  t  really  have  to  do  much  publicizing 
in  order  to  let  other  people  know  about 
their  area.  All  its  new  population,  its  new 
industrial  wealth,  and  its  many  beautiful 
scenic  spots  speak  for  themselves. 

And  you  can  bet  your  boots  that  visitors 
will  tell  the  folks  b.uk  home  about  that 
great,  big,  thriving  wonderland — San  Ber-

Testimonial  dinner  honors  Zaragoza,  Moody 


^iiiftfCtii-itiririfb-Ci-lfdiiiftfCftftriiirCr-tiitifCfir 


As  IH1-:  I'Horos  here  mdk.Ue,  the  re- 
cent testimonial  dinner  for  two 
new  iypromoted  S.in  Franeiseo  jx)liic  of- 
titers  was  a  rousing  success. 

A  big  crowd  of  friends  were  on  hand 
to  honor  the  new  Director  of  Traffic, 
I.  Thomas  Zaragoza  and  Captain  of  Traf- 
fic Edward  J.  Moody.  Both  men  were 
presented  their  new  gold  stars. 

The  Police  Committee  had  arranged  the 
testimonial  dinner,  which  was  held  in  the 


Marine's  Menion.il  Building. 

Mesdames  Zaragoza  and  Moody  both 
spoke  to  the  gathering,  relating  many  in- 
teresting and  often  humorous  accounts  of 
their  respective  husband's  life  as  a  police- 
man. Several  groups  of  friends  and  several 
fraternal  orders  also  spoke,  giving  testi- 
monials for  the  two  guests  of  honor. 

Sgt.  Clayton  1:.  Mitchell  did  a  skillful 
job  as  Master  of  Ceremonies.  Mel  Drefke, 
of  the  Traffic  Bureau's  Hit  and  Run  De- 
tail, took  these  photographs. 


Big  crowd  was  on  hand  ai  testimonial  dinner  held  in  Marine's  Memorial  Hall,  SF.

POLICE  AND  PEACE  OFFICERS  JOURNAL 


How's  your  law  I.Q.? 


Herein  is  contained  another  of  a  series  of  questions  and  answers  pertinent  to  Police  training  and  helpful  in  promotional 
examinations.  These  questions  and  answers  are  supplied  to  the  Journal,  as  a  service  to  law  enforcement  officers  through- 
out the  state,  by  E.  D.  Kerkhoven,  director  of  the  Peace  Officer  Training  Service  in  Oakland.  The  questions  are  selected  to 
test  the  reader's  knowledge  of  various  phases  of  law  enforcement.  Each  question  has  a  number  of  suggested  answers, 
labeled  1,  2,  3,  etc.  You  decide  which  is  the  best  answer  to  the  question  asked  and  then  encircle  the  number.  When  you 
have  completed  the  test,  compare  your  answers  with  the  Kf  Y  on  page  17. 


1.  Jones  went  into  the  telephone  booths 
of  the  Owl  Drug  Co.  on  6th  and  Broad- 
way and  plugged  up  the  coin  slots  in  such 
a  manner  that  the  change  did  not  return  to 
the  caller  when  the  call  was  not  completed. 
Then  he  went  to  Bullocks  Department 
Store  and  did  the  same  thing.  A  few  hours 
later  he  returned  to  the  Owl  Drug  Co. 
unplugged  the  coin  slots  and  was  appre- 
hended when  he  started  to  gather  up  the 
change.  Jones;  (1)  could  be  charged  with 
burglary;  (2)  could  not  be  charged  with 
any  crime  because  he  only  took  change 
from  individuals  who  neither  knew  him 
nor  could  they  accuse  him  personally;  (3) 
could  be  taken  to  the  small  claims  court 
because  the  sum  of  money  involved  was 
never  individually  greater  than  25c;  (4) 
could  not  be  charged  with  burglary  be- 
cause the  telephone  booths  were  in  public 
places;  (5)  could  only  be  charged  with 
tampering  with  the  telephone  boxes. 

• 

2.  All  murders  are  of  the  second  degree 
if  perpetrated  ;  (1)  by  means  of  poison; 
(2)  in  the  commission  of  mayhem;  (3) 
by  torture;  (4)  in  the  commission  of  ar- 
son; (5)  in  the  commission  of  larceny. 

• 

3.  A  police  ofificer  offers  in  testimony 
the  description  of  the  perpetrators  of  a 
crime  given  him  by  a  disinterested  eye- 
witness. This  testimony  is;  (1)  admissible 
in  evidence  under  the  theory  of  "res 
gestae;"  (2)  admissible  if  it  is  entered  as 


evidence  on  behalf  of  the  defendant;  (3) 
admissible  if  it  fits  into  the  general  plan 
or  scheme  of  a  crime;  (4)  inadmissible 
testimony;  (5)  admissible  if  it's  a  correct 
statement  of  the  descripition  of  the  perpe- 
trators. 

• 
4,  During  a  list  fight  occurring  at  San 
Pedro,  California,  a  seaman  pulled  out  a 
knife  and  seriously  stabbed  his  opponent. 
The  seaman  fled.  Eventually  the  wounded 
man  recovered.  A  complaint  was  filed 
against  the  seaman  in  the  municipal  court 
charging  him  with  assault  with  a  deadly 
weapon.  Five  years  later  the  seaman  was 
arrested  in  Michigan.  Proof  was  available 
that  the  seaman  had  left  California  im- 
mediately after  the  assault  and  had  re- 
mained outside  the  state  during  all  of  the 
time,  with  the  exception  of  a  few  days  on 
each  of  several  visits  to  the  state  during 
which  he  had  visited  friends  in  the  state. 
The  last  of  such  visits  occurred  one  month 
before  the  arrest.  The  seaman;  (1)  could 
not  be  prosecuted  in  California  because 
the  3-year  Statute  of  Limitations  was  not 
affected  by  filing  of  the  complaint;  (2) 
could  be  held  to  answer  and  legally  con- 
victed; (3)  could  not  be  prosecuted  be- 
ca-jse  the  victim  recovered  and  did  not 
"uffer  any  permanent  injury;  (4)  could 
not  be  prosecuted  because  the  officer 
should  have  obtained  an  indictment  rath- 
er t'la'T  a  complaint;  (5)  could  be  prose- 
cuted because  each  visit  to  the  state  caused 
the  Statute  of  Limitations  to  run  anew. 


5.  An  ofificer  observes  a  known  pick- 
pocket put  his  hand  in  the  right  rear  trou- 
sers pocket  of  a  man.  The  officer  grabs  the 
pickpocket's  arm  while  the  hand  was  still 
in  the  victim's  pocket.  The  officer  with- 
draws the  hand  from  the  pocket.  The  vic- 
tim has  no  money  or  property  whatever 
in  his  pocket.  The  pickpocket;  (1)  cannot 
be  prosecuted  because  since  there  was  no 
money  or  property  in  the  pocket  it  was  im- 
posible  to  commit  a  crime;  (2)  cannot  be 
prosecuted  because  he  had  not  gone  far 
enough  to  constitute  a  crime;  (3)  can  be 
prosecuted  for  grand  theft;  (4)  can  be 
prosecuted  for  attempted  grand  theft;  (5) 
can  be  prosecuted  for  attempted  petty 
theft. 


6.  'Which  one  of  the  following  is  a 
peace  officer?  (1)  an  inspector  of  the 
board  of  chiropractic  examiners  of  the 
state;  (2)  an  inspector  of  the  board  of 
examiners  of  the  State  Bar  of  California; 
( 3 )  an  inspector  of  the  State  Insurance 
Commission;  (4)  an  inspector  of  the  State 
Railway  Commission;  (5)  a  judge  of  the 
Superior  Court. 


7.  Services  of  a  subpoena  for  witnesses 
in  a  criminal  case;  (1)  can  be  made  by 
delivery  of  photostatic  copy  of  the  ori- 
ginal; (2)  is  not  complete  unless  the  re- 
cipient accepts  the  service  in  his  hand;  (3)

FRIEND 


(Editor's  Note:  Dick  Castro  tvas  re- 
cently featured  in  a  national  magazine. 
Unfortunately,  the  article  was  quite  inac- 
curate and  contained  many  factual  errors. 
In  the  following  article,  Police  Writer 
Kathleen  Blair  presents  the  corrected  story 
of  the  SF  officer.) 

By  Kathleen  Blair 

DURING  HIS  nine  years  with  the  San 
Francisco  Police  Department,  Dick 
Castro  has  been  a  firm  believer  in  the  fifth 
commandment  of  God  .  .  .  "Thou  Shalt 
Not  Kill"  (Of  course,  if  a  lawman's  life 
is  endangered,  the  word  then  is  "Thou 
Shalt  Shoot  to  Kill") 

The  32-year-old  Castro  is  a  motorc)»cle 
officer.  For  the  last  eight  years,  he  has 
kept  an  exceptionally  good  record  as  a 
"bikeman."  Officer  Castro  has  earned  four 
meritorious  awards  and  eight  commenda- 
tions for  going  "above  and  beyond  the 
call  of  duty"  in  the  interests  of  law  and 
order. 


to  die,  the  young  officer  replied:  "That's 
my  job.  I  wanted  to  save  that  man  because 
I  think  it's  just  as  serious  to  kill  yourself 
as  it  is  to  kill  someone  else." 

Fillmore  Shooting 

In  February,  Castro  again  demonstrated 
he  could  get  his  man  without  having  to 
shoot  him.  It  was  2:15  in  the  morning. 
Castro  was  on  his  motorcycle  in  the  vi- 
cinity of  Divisadero.  The  quiet,  still  night 
was  broken  by  his  police  radio:  "All  cars 
in  the  1700  block  of  Fillmore  ...  a  shoot- 
ing." 

Castro  gunned  his  motorcycle  to  life 
and  arrived  at  the  scene  a  few  minutes 
later. 

A  store-owner  had  been  shot.  Castro 
listend  to  the  sparse  details,  the  descrip- 
tion of  the  suspect  and  the  shooting — and 
decided  to  play  a  hunch.  As  they  awaited 
the  momentary  arrival  of  an  ambulance, 
the  officer  went  to  the  restaurant  next  door 
and  started  to  the  rear  of  the  building. 


Thou  shalt  not  kill 

A  San  Francisco  police  officer 

gives  his  reasons  for  saving  lives 


Foils  Suicide  Attempt 

A  good  case  in  point  concerned  a 
would-be  suicide  who  planned  jumping 
from  the  seventh  floor  of  a  downtown 
hotel.  Apparently,  the  desperate  man  had 
wished  to  add  to  the  excitement  and  drama 
because  he  phoned  the  newspapers  and 
told  them  of  his  intentions. 

Within  minutes,  the  building  was  full 
of    policemen,    firemen,    and    ambulance 
crews.  All  had  but  one  purpose  ...  to 
stop  the  man  from  killing  himself. 
Quick  Action  Needed 

It  was  already  obvious  that  safety  nets 
would  be  useless  at  this  height.  As  pre- 
cious minutes  passed,  ininutes  which  seem- 
ed like  hours,  police  and  firemen  tried 
diverting  the  ledge-sitter's  attention  by 
pleading  with  him  to  return  to  safety. 

Officer  Castro  began  making  his  way 
along  the  ledge,  quietly  inching  his  way 
toward  his  quarry. 

Closer  .  .  .  closer. 

Daring  Gamble  Pays  Off 

Suddenly,  Castro  grabbed  the  man.  At 
precisely  this  moment,  the  man  decided 
to  jump.  Holding  the  struggling  man,  the 
officer  clutched  the  fire  escape  and  held 
on.  Both  were  about  to  go  out  into  space 
when  another  rescuer  ran  up,  grabbed  the 
struggling  men,  and  pulled  both  of  them 
to  safety. 

Asked  later  why  he  had  risked  his  own 
life  to  save  a  man  who  obviously  wanted 


A  .38  At  His  Chest 

The  counter  seats  were  full  as  Castro 
walked  toward  the  last  seat,  he  found 
himself  walking  straight  at  the  wanted 
man.  However,  matters  were  a  bit  com- 
plicated because  as  the  man  arose  from  his 
sitting  position  just  a  few  feet  away,  he 
aimed  his  .38  detective  special  straight  at 
Castro's  chest. 

In  a  quick,  cat-like  spring,  Castro  jump- 
ed forward.  He  wrestled  the  gunman  to 
the  ground,  disarmed  him,  and  snapped 
on  the  handcuffs. 

Gunman  Meant  Business 

More  out  of  curiosity  than  any  other 
motive,  Castro  asked  the  subdued  gunman 
why  he  had  wanted  to  shoot  him. 

The  culprit  gave  a  somewhat  ironic  an- 
swer: "If  a  cop's  going  to  shoot  me,  I'm 
going  to  shoot  him  first." 

The  answer  was  ironic  because  Officer 
Castro  had  never  removed  his  own  serv- 
ice revolver  from  its  holster. 

"While  off  duty  recently,  Castro  was 
driving  along  near  Eddy  and  Taylor 
Streets.  Suddenly  he  saw  a  cab  driver 
jump  from  his  cab,  yelling,  "Hey,  some- 
body stop  that  man!" 

Castro  hurriedly  jumped  from  his  auto. 
He  tried  to  halt  the  fleeing  man  with  the 
"stop,  I'm  an  officer"  bit,  which  didn't 
seem  to  do  much  good.  In  fact,  the  man 
dashed  around  the  corner  and  ducked  into 
a  nearby  parking  lot. 


NOVEMBKR-DKCHMBtR,  iy^«

OsTRO  Heard  The  Click 

Approaching  the  hidden  man,  Castro 
heard  that  unmistakable  sound  ...  a 
(.lick!  The  man,  hidden  by  the  shadows, 
had  tried  to  shoot  him. 

At  that  moment,  another  otfuer  appear- 
ed. At  Castro's  warning,  he  also  took 
cover.  Both  men  then  shouted  a  "drop 
your  gun  or  we'll  shoot  "  warning  to  the 
fugitive.  Castro,  with  his  fellow-othter 
covering  him,  crouched  low  and  worked 
his  way  toward  the  cornered  gunman. 
Once  again,  this  time  emphasizing  his  or- 
der by  yanking  out  his  revolver,  Castro 
shouted  at  the  man  to  throw  down  his  gun. 
Apparently,  the  desperado,  seeing  the  two 
.38's  pointed  his  way,  realized  he  didn't 
have  a  chance  at  escaping.  He  came  out 
with  his  hands  up. 

Two  Sailors  Robbed 

Moments  later,  after  the  man  was  ar- 
rested and  was  being  taken  away,  Castro 


found  out  that  the  man  had  just  held  up 
two  sailors  and  was  making  his  getaway 
in  the  cab.  The  whole  plan  had  gone  hay- 
wire, though,  when  the  frightened  cabbie 
jumped  from  his  cab  and  hollered  for 
help. 

Quite  possibly,  Castro  could  have 
started  slinging  lead  when  he  had  the  man 
trapped.  But  that's  not  part  of  his  work 
pattern,  he  says.  Apparently,  he  wants  to 
get  his  man  "the  Castro  way,"  the  way 
built  on  this  officer's  belief  that  "Thou 
Shalt  Not  Kill.  ' 

The  6-foot-2"  officer  has  less  violent 
sides  to  his  jcjb,  too.  Frequently  his  duties 
have  included  the  escorting  of  'VIP's 
around  the  city. 

Some  of  the  celebrities  he's  shown 
around  include  Harry  Truman  and  the 
Shah  of  Iran  and  movie  people  like  Rita 
Moreno,  Sherce  North,  Richard  Ugan,  Bob 
Hope,  Gloria  De  Haven,  and  Debra  Paget.

TV's  "Line  Up  "  honored 

Show  boosts  Siiu  Vraucisco 

aud  its  police  department 


TMi  Pi'BLic  RiaATioNS  angle  oi  TV's 
"Line  Up"  is  apparently  hitting  pay 
dirt.  And  the  hardworking  San  I'rant  isco 
ChaniLxT  ot  Commerce  is  i)ne  ot  the  big 
laitors  in  the  success  ot  this  widely-known 
TV  show. 

In  recent  ceremonies,  the  (hamhcr  hon- 
ored the  series  "for  telling  the  story  of 
the  City's  excellent  police  department  with 
great  authenticity  and  for  beaming  San 
Francisco  scenes  into  millions  of  homes 
throughout  the  world.  " 

Producer,  Stars  Honored 

Producer  Jaime  del  Valle  and  Actors 
Warner  Anderson  and  Tom  Tully  were 
presented  honorary  cards  along  with  copies 
of  the  new  Seal  recording,  "San  Francisco, 
My  Enchanted  City.  " 

Chamber  President  Alan  K.  Browne 
made  the  presentation  to  the  TV  troupe  on 
location  at  Steinhart  Acjuarium. 

"We're  very  proud  of  the  program  and 
have  constantly  been  surprised  at  the 
knowledge  of  San  Francisco  shown  by 
visitors  who  are  devoted  fans  in  their 
homes  as  far  away  as  Australia  and  New- 
Zealand,  "  Browne  told  del  Valle. 

"Line  Up"  Helps  Boost  City 

"It  s  a  tremendous  asset  for  a  city  like 
San  Francisco,  which  gains  much  of  its 
prosperity  from  visitors  and  conventions 
to  be  photographed  with  such  authenticity 
and  devotion  and  for  the  program  to  be 
so  popular  throughout  the  world.  " 

The  Chamber  pointed  out  that  the  hon- 
orary cards  are  by  no  means  a  mass  pro- 


duction affair.  The  cards  are  presented  on 
a  highly  selective  basis  and  are  reserved 
only  for  those  San  I'ranciscans  or  honorary 
Saa  Franciscans  whose  efforts  have  added 
to  the  distinction  of  the  city,  Chamber 
Cicneral  Manager  G.  L.  Fox,  said. 

SF  Police  Commissioner  Thomas  J. 
Mellon  and  Chronicle  columnist  Herb 
C^aen  were  among  the  few  recipients  dur- 
ing the  last  two  years. 

Card  Used  In  Russia 
The  Russians  have  even  gotten  into  the 
act,  according  to  the  Chamber.  A  distin- 
guished San  Franciscan  once  used  his  hon- 
orary card  to  get  behind  the  Iron  Curtain 
when  Soviet  border  guards  refused  to  rec- 
ognize his  U.  S.  passport  and  other  cre- 
dentials. 

The  Chamber  also  announced  a  promo- 
tional program  utilizing  a  retired  Powell 
Street  cable  car.  Actors  Tully  and  Ander- 
son, in  their  roles  as  "Ambassadors  Ex- 
traordinary," are  on  an  extended  tour  of 
3i  eastern  cities  aboard  the  motorized 
cable  car.  The  car  was  converted  by  Breun- 
ers  and  is  now  the  property  of  Harrahs 
Club,  Lake  Tahoe. 

Mayors  Taken   For  Ride 

The  two  detectives  are  calling  on  the 
mayors  or  presidents  of  Chambers  of  Com- 
merce of  3'i  cities  from  Chicago  and  New 
York,  taking  them  on  rides  on  the  cable 
car.  The  TV  personalities  also  present 
their  hosts  with  copies  of  the  San  Fran- 
cisco recording  plus  a  certificate  naming 
them  honorary  cable  tar  conductors.

King  Breaks  Ground 

Supervising  Inspector  J.  Raymond 
King,  Coastal  Zone  Commander,  cautious- 
ly worked  the  controls  of  a  back-hoe  in- 
stead of  the  using  the  traditional  shovel

were  Al  Nelder,  SF's  Deputy  Chief  of 
Police;  Deputy  Commissioner  Ross  R.  Mc- 
Donald, Highway  Patrol,  Sacramento;  and 
several  members  of  the  Patrol  and  the 
SFPD. 

The  two-story  building  will  have  ap- 
proximately 9,000  square  feet  of  floor 
space.  The  site  has  2*^0'  frontage  on 
Eighth  Street,  between  Harrison  and 
Bryant  Streets,  in  the  South-of-Market 
section.  It  forms  a  near  triangle  about 
280'  deep  between  the  approach  ramp  and 
the  exit  ramp  of  the  Bayshore  Freeway. 
Coastal  Zone  Headquarters 

King  will  have  his  office  in  the  new 


eadquarters  set 
in  fall  of  '39 

building.  As  Coastal  Zone  Commander, 
his  territory  includes  all  coastal  counties 
between  Ventura  on  the  South,  and  Del 
Norte  on  the  north,  plus  Lake,  Napa,  So- 
lano, Contra  Costa,  and  San  Benito  coun- 
ties. It  includes  five  districts,  IS  areas,  and 
six  substations. 

The  new  Coastal  Zone  Headquarters 
Building  will  also  house  personnel  from 
three  patrol  districts  and  the  Bay  Bridge 
Area;  District  Three,  under  Inspector  Fred 
A.  Leber  (office  now  in  Richmond);  Dis- 
trict Five,  under  Inspector  Howard  G. 
Amborn  (office  now  in  Oakland);  and 
District  15,  under  Inspector  Walter  Se- 
queiro  (office  now  at  160  South  Van  Ness, 
San  I'rancisco) . 

Three  Offices  To  Close 

Also,  the  Bay  Bridge  Area,  under  Cap- 
tain William  G.  Stimann  (office  now  at 
the  Bay  Bridge  Toll  Plaza);  and  the  Cen- 
tral Radio  Dispatch,  covering  four  areas 
(San  Rafael,  San  Leandro,  Redwood  City, 
and  the  Bay  Bridge  Area). 

It  was  further  stated  that  when  the  new 
building  is  finished,  the  Highway  Patrol 
will  close  its  offices  in  Oakland,  Rich- 
mond, and  at  160  South  Van  Ness,  San 
Francisco.  However,  this  will  not  affect

SF  winners  announced 
in   pistol  competition 

By  J.  Ross  DUNNIGAN 

THE  SF  Police  Department's  pistol 
championship  _•  classic  opened  Sep- 
tember 18.  It  should  be  noted  that  the  day 
was  just  built  for  shooting — no  wind  and 
the  sun  was  penetrating  enough  to  make 
for  steady  hands  and  plenty  of  bulls-eyes. 
There  were  about  150  individual  entries 
and  33  teams. 

I  ran  into  Alan  Johnson,  relief  night 
man  at  the  planetarium,  who  informed 
me  that  he  completely  forgot  about  the 
matches  and  they  sneaked  up  on  him  be- 
fore he  knew  it  but  maybe  next  year  he'll 
compete. 

Prizes  Awarded 

The  first  match  produced  an  upset  in 
which  the  defending  last  year's  champion. 
Inspector  Ed  Preston,  was  taken  to  task 
by  his  teammate  Walt  "Van  Dehey,  from 
the  Park  station.  Both  men  finished  the 
match  with  identical  scores,  98,  99  and  98 
for  a  295.  In  the  shootoff  Ed  miffed  a 
shot,  so  Walt  was  declared  winner  and 
awarded  the  cigarette  lighter.  If  I  remem- 
ber rightly,  Walt  doesn't  hit  the  weed. 
The  prizes  were  a  cigarette  lighter  for 
1st  place,  a  gaucho  (bola)  tie  for  second 
while  third  and  fourth  place  winners  re- 
ceived medals.  Frank  Dunphy  tells  me  he 
didn't  shoot  in  the  matches  but  received 
a  nice  score  for  himself.  Knowing  Frank 
as  I  do  I'm  inclined  to  go  along  with  it. 
Frank  at  one  time  was  a  pretty  good  hot- 
shot himself. 

The  Potrero  team  was  in  kind  of  a  bad 
way  there  for  a  minute,  or  at  least  that's 
what  Dan  Carrick  thought.  When  the 
team  was  called  on  the  lines,  Dan  could- 
n't find  Gouslin  and  had  one  bad  time 
until  he  had  his  man  on  the  line  all  set 
to  go. 

Battle  of  the  Bulge 

I  did  notice  that  many  of  the  officers, 
who  were  inclined  to  be  on  the  hefty  side, 
have  slimmed  down  to  somewhat  nearer 
human  proportions.  On  them  it  looks 
good.  Ed  "Woods,  the  boss  statistical  of- 
ficer of  the  range  knocked  ofT  considerable 
poundage.  Maybe  I  should,  too.  However, 
some  of  the  gentry  could  still  get  into 
fighting  shape.  It  isn't  half  as  much  fun 
taking  it  off  as  putting  it  on. 

After  all  the  shooting  is  over  and  one 
glances  at  the  scores,  you  have  to  hand 
it  to  some  of  the  men.  The  greatest  num- 
ber of  them  are  shooting  with  their  service 
revolvers  which  doesn't  help  the  scores 
any  too  much.  If  you  gave  them  a  good 
target  gun  you'd  see  the  scores  zoom  up 
and  in  many  cases,  I  venture,  some  of  the 


medium  shooters  of  today  would  be  up 
with  the  best  in  the  department.  I  note 
Bill  Traner,  a  recent  addition  to  the  force 
is  right  up  there  among  the  master  first 
class  boys. 

A  New  Pistol  Champ? 

The  first  match  always  produces  the 
puzzler  match  to  figure  out,  so  I  will  not 
attempt  to  do  any  crystal  ball  gazing.  I 
do  know  that  it  looks  like  Preston  had 
better  watch  those  butterflies  or  the  depart- 
ment may  have  a  new  champion  soon. 

The  Inspectors  Bureau  Team  came  out 
on  top,  as  is  their  usual  procedure.  Not 
too  far  behind  was  the  Traffic  team  No.  1. 
The  Inspectors  have  had  things  pretty 
much  their  own  way  for  many  years  and 
the  other  teams  are  sure  out  to  change  the 
picture  in  1958.  However,  they  are  a 
pretty  tough  bunch  of  shooters  to  beat  and 
if  they  are  taken  to  the  cleaners  this  year 
you  can  bet  it'll  be  a  mighty  strong  team 
that  does  it.

#  The  scioiul  inttriitparlnicnt.il  matih 
shows  W.ilt  V.in  DcH.iy  out  In  I'ront  in 
the  individual  match  -  but  trailed  so 
closely  by  Jack  Ahern  it  isn't  tunny,  boys. 
Walt  had  a  29^  in  the  first  match  and 
followed  up  with  a  293  for  a  total  of  "iSS 
for  first  honors  so  far.  jack  Ahern,  ot  the 
Inspectors  Bureau,  had  a  29.S  in  both 
matches  for  a  total  of  'i86  and  is  breath- 
ing down  Walts  collar.  Ed  Preston,  last 
year's  departmental  champion,  missed  the 
second  match  but  shot  a  29'>  in  September. 
So  Ed  is  still  in  the  running  but  29*1  is  nt)t 
one  of  his  best  scores  by  a  long  way.  Dick 
Willett  of  the  Park  St.ition  had  only  one 
shoot  under  his  belt  but  it  was  a  290.  He 
was  eliminated  as  of  that  one  match. 
Freeman  Has  Good  Score 
The  master  class  seems  dominated  by 
Sgt.  Ray  Freeman,  of  the  Potrero  station. 
He  had  a  278  in  both  matches  and  from 
the  way  it  looks  now  he  might  cop  the 
first  prize  in  that  class.  Many  shooters  with 
gunslinging  reputations  have  only  fired  in

one  match  suih  as  Jaik  Chancy,  Hal  Rey- 
nolds, Joe  Hroggi,  just  to  mention  a  lew 
who  tould  turn  the  tide  with  a  touple  ot 
good  scores. 

All  in  all  it  was  a  swell  individual  duel 
with  l-io  shooters  as  against  I  50  on  open- 
ing day.  The  10  shooter  drop  in  attendance 
is  very  good  as  the  drop-out  is  usually  a 
bit  more.  The  same  goes  tor  the  team 
matches  where  3.3  teams  opened  the  tour- 
nament (30  teams  were  on  hand  for  the 
second  match).  Evidentally  the  shooters 
are  interested  no  end. 

Park  Team   Looks  Good 

The  Park  Station  team  No.  1  looks  like 
the  strong  team  this  year.  It  has  three 
members  of  the  SFPD  pistol  team  on  it 
— Schaugaard,  Willet,  Van  Dehey  and  as 
Reynolds  is  not  an  SFPD  team  member  he 
is  by  no  means  a  novice.  Look  for  them  to 
take  the  trophy  away  from  the  usual  win- 
ners— the  Inspectors  team  No.  1.  The  Park 
team  has  a  total  of  2319  while  the  In- 
spectors have  a  total  of  2314.  Not  much, 
but  with  the  regular  Park  Station  shooters 
on  the  lines,  they  should  place  first  this 
year. 

Most  of  the  team  membership  in  the 
other  classes  are  jumbled  up.  Switching 
members  at  times  is  not  too  good.  The 
Central  team  No.  1  finished  in  first  place 
in  the  September  match  and  when  they 
changed  their  lineup,  they  came  in  sixth. 
These  changes  are  of  course,  in  many  in- 
stances due  to  duty  of  the  men,  cannot  be 
avoided  but  they  can  sure  wreck  scores. 

Ran  into  Bill  Creeden  recently.  Bill  has 
been  assigned  to  the  Recreation  &  Park 
Department  as  their  officer.  He  tells  me 
that  he  isn't  interested  in  the  shoulder  to 
shoulder  stuff  but  is  gonna  wait  to  find  out 
v\'ho  the  winner  is  and  then  challenge  him 
to  a  quick  draw  contest.  That's  where  Bill 
shines  (at  least,  that's  what  he  told  me).

B)  Clayri:  &  Michel  Lipman 

iHnslhinJ  aiul  uije  writing  team. 

well-kitouii  for  their  itr/tings  on 

points  of  law) 

THi:  LAVi  is  really  not  as  complicated 
as  many  people  think.  Trouble  is, 
the  jacls  are  usually  more  compiiiatcil  than 
they  think.  See  what  you  lan  do  on  this 
le^al  test  of  wits: 

*  *      * 

You  subscribe  to  your  Uxal  weekly  mag- 
azine, telling  the  editor  you'll  take  it  for 
six  months.  If  you  want  to  continue  after 
that,  you'll  let  him  know.  When  the  paid- 
up  six  months  expires,  you  do  nothing, 
but  the  paper  keeps  on  arriving.  You  keep 
reading  it,  ignoring  statements,  and  never 
putting  in  a  cancellation.  After  three  years, 
your  bill  amounts  to  S24.  The  newspaper 
sues .-' 

Must  You  Pay.' 

You  must  pay,  said  a  Missouri  court. 
You  accepted  and  used  the  product  of  an- 
other man's  labor.  Even  though  you  didn't 
[:)ersonally  order  the  paper  continued  after 
the  first  six  months,  the  contract  continues. 
So  you  must  pay. 

*  *      * 

You're  driving  your  car  during  a  cloud- 
burst. Water  is  rising  around  you.  You 
take  refuge  on  high  ground,  owned  by  a 
belligerent  recluse.  The  old  man  orders 
you  oflf  his  property,  finally  forces  you  to 
leave.  You  have  to  spend  a  wet  night  on 
the  roof  of  your  car,  with  flood  waters 
swirling  about  you.  Pneumonia  results. 
You  sue  the  old  recluse  for  damages.  He 
defends  his  action  on  the  ground  that  you 
were  trespassing.  Can  you  recover  your  ex- 
penses ? 

Old  Man's  Responsibility 

Yes,  says  a  'Vermont  court.  You  have  a 
legal  right  to  trespass  in  time  of  great 
danger.  The  old  man  put  you  in  grave 
peril,  and  he  must  be  held  responsible. 

*  «      « 

You  have  a  fond  memory  of  your  alma 
mater,  old  Seedy  College.  So  later,  when

field  of  Traffic  Fngineering. 

Guest  Lecturers  Invited 

Gregory  S.  Stout,  lecturer  in  Criminal 
Law,  is  a  practicing  attorney  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. A  former  member  of  the  San  Fran- 
cisco District  Attorney's  office,  Mr.  Stout 
received  his  A.B.  and  LL.D  degrees  from 
the  University  of  California.  Well  known 
in  the  legal  profession,  Mr.  Stout  has  the 
ability  and  interest  to  enable  him  to  pre- 
sent his  information  from  a  point  of  view 
which  is  extremely  valuable  and  pr.ictical 
for  the  police  officer. 

In  addition  to  the  regular  staff  of  in- 
structors, guest  lecturers  are  invited  to  pre- 
sent material  from  various  fields  of  inter- 
est. Many  outstanding  men  from  all  of  the 
different  areas  of  criminology  have  demon- 
strated their  sincere  interest  in  the  pro- 
gram by  giving  freely  of  their  time  and 
energy.  Such  a  utilization  of  different 
talents  and  varied  points  of  view  has  re- 
sulted in  a  program  which  h.is  greater  val- 
ue and  interest  for  the  student  than  it 
otherwise  would. 

Higher  Standards  Sought 

It  has  been  said  that  the  ideal  situation 
in  which  learning  can  take  place  requires 
only  a  teacher,  a  log,  and  a  student.  The 
teacher  sits  on  one  end  of  the  log,  the 
student   on    the   other,   and   through   the

process  of  communication  and  reasoning, 
knowledge  is  acquired.  While  this  method 
has  the  advantage  of  a  small  class  size  and 
might  truly  be  an  excellent  means  of  teach- 
ing some  subjects,  it  would  hardly  be  satis- 
factory for  a  program  such  as  is  offered  by 
the  Criminology  Department  of  the  City 
College.  The  increasing  demand  for  a 
more  professional  approach  to  police  work 
has  led  to  the  development  of  a  curricu- 
lum which  could  not  be  presented  without 
adequate  facilities.  The  administrative  of- 
ficers of  the  San  Francisco  School  District 
and  of  the  City  College,  appreciative  of 
the  contribution  made  by  this  program, 
have  been  most  generous  and  far-sighted 
in  supplying  excellent  facilities  and  equip- 
ment to  implement  the  objectives  of  the 
course. 

The  Criminology  Department  occupies 
one  wing  of  the  lower  floor  of  Cloud  Hall, 
a  cleanly  designed,  modern  structure.  In 
this  wing  are  to  be  found  a  well  lighted 
lecture  room  seating  forty-five  persons,  a 
lecture-laboratory  with  stations  for  thirty 
persons,  a  preparation  room  adjacent  to 
the  laboratory,  a  completely  equipped 
dark-room  for  photographic  purposes,  and 
offices  used  by  the  staff.  In  addition  to  this 
space,  the  department  also  has  access  to 
more  extensive  photographic  facilities  and 
to  the  particularly  fine  audio-visual  pro- 
jection rooms  which  are  in  the  building. 

Good  Equipment  Available 

The  very  best  in  equipment  has  been 
supplied  to  the  department  to  facilitate 
the  many  different  types  of  training  which 
take    place.    Photographic    equipment 


ranges  from  an  extremely  versatile  35mm 
camera  assembly  to  a  5  x  7  view  camera. 
Photomicrographic  equipment  and  a  fin- 
gerprint camera  are  to  be  found  in  this 
category.  As  has  been  previously  noted, 
facilities  and  equipment  for  developing, 
printing,  and  enlarging  are  also  available. 
Microscopic  equipment  includes  a  ste- 
reo-binocular microscope  for  low  power 
viewing,  standard  laboratory  microscopes 
for  both  viewing  and  photomicrographic 
purposes,  and  a  comparison  microscope 
which  can  be  utilized  for  the  observation 
and  comparison  of  a  large  variety  of  both 


opaque  and  transparent  specimens.  Most 
of  the  specialized  equipment  used  for  the 
analysis  and  comparison  of  physical  evi- 
dence is  to  be  found  in  the  laboratory. 
Identification  equipment  includes  kits  for 
rolling  prints,  materials  for  the  develop- 
ment of  latent  prints,  and  fingerprint  mag- 
nifiers for  the  use  of  each  student  in  the 
classroom. 

Firearms  Training 

The  firearms  training  program  is  given 

special  emphasis,  and  the  department  has 

been  well  equipped  for  this  aspect  of 

training.  During  the  firearms  course,  each

include  .22  ealiher  pistols,  .^8  taliher  re- 
volvers, and  .4*1  taliher  pistols.  The  sihool 
also  possesses  reloading  et]uipnient,  and 
some  students  gain  taeility  in  the  art  of 
reloading.  Several  nearby  firing  ranges  are 
used,  and  plans  are  being  considered  lor 
the  establishment  of  a  small  range  to  be 
located  on  school  property.  As  a  result  of 
this  program,  students  have  achieved  re- 
markable success  over  the  past  few  years 
in  competition  with  other  groups. 

It  can  then  be  stated  that  the  Crimin- 


ology Department  is  very  adequately 
ei|uipped  ami  has  superior  facilities  tor  the 
presentation  of  the  wide  variety  of  subjeit

CAPTAIN  ARTHl'R  WILLIAMS  of  ihc  San  Francis 
brings  a  wealth  of  experience  lo  the  studenis  of  his  i 
Conirol  anil  Investigation. 


o  Poliie  Dept. 
lurse  in  Tratiic 


is  actually  prcscntcil.  Such  a  presentation 
would  be  incomplete  were  no  mcntitni 
made  of  the  results  ot  the  program.  Just 
as  a  commercial  institution  is  judged  by  its 
product,  so  should  an  educational  institu- 
tion be  judged  by  its  product,  the  graduate 
of  the  educational  process. 

One  measure  of  the  success  of  this  pro- 
gram is  the  fact  that  .so  many  of  its  grad- 
uates have  swelled  the  ranks  of  law  en- 
forcement in  this  region.  In  all  likelihood, 
there  will  be  few  readers  of  this  article  in 
the  San  Francisco  Bay  Area  who  do  not 
have  at  least  one  friend  or  acquaintance 
in  the  field  of  law  enforcement  who  has 
attended  the  City  College  of  San  Fran- 
cisco. Police  Department  administrators 
have  expressed  enthusi.ism  and  satisfaction 
over  the  caliber  of  men  they  have  em- 
ployed and  the  caliber  of  training  that 
these  men  have  received. 

Work  Is  Satisfying 

Finally,  and  perhaps  most  important,  as 
a  yardstick  of  achievement,  is  the  opinion 
of  the  men  who  have  been  through  the 
program.  A  good  percentage  of  the  stu- 
dents have  found  that  attending  the  school 
has  involved  a  large  personal  sacrifice  of 
some  nature,  and  yet  there  is  an  almost 
universal  satisfaction  expressed.  Former 
students  constantly  revisit  the  department 
and  describe  how  their  training  has  aided 
them  in  the  better  performance  of  their 
duties  or  in  their  advancement  in  the  field. 
Other  students  who  have  gone  on  to 
higher  institutions  of  learning  return  with 
similar  expressions  of  a  positive  nature.  In 
such  expressions  lie  the  real  satisfaction  of 
those  who  are  involved  in  this  training 
program.  There  is  true  satisfaction  in  such 
work,  but  no  complacency.  The  Criminol- 
ogy Program  has  met  the  needs  of  the 
community  and  of  the  student  in  the  past. 
To  continue  to  do  so  in  the  future  will 


require  constant  self  evaluation  and  the 
willingness  to  accept  constructive  criticism 
and  sound  advice  from  all  of  those  who 
have  an  interest  in  the  field  of  law  en- 
forcement and  in  the  broader  field  of 
criminology.

BEFORE  GOING  into  business,  it's  essen- 
tial to  check  the  various  licenses  and 
permits  you'll  need.  Requirements  differ 
from  state  to  state.  Especially  is  it  good  to 
check  when  you're  expanding  a  business. 
Or  opening  a  new  department.  Or  merg- 
ing another  operation. 

The  change  may  make  it  necessary  for 
you  to  get  a  license  where  you  didn't 
need  one  before. 

Error  Can  Be  Costly 

Be  extra  care  Jul  when  ever  you're  going 
into  a  specialized  type  of  business.  For 
example,  real  estate  brokerage.  Or  build- 
ing. Or  barbering.  It's  more  than  a  matter 
of  paying  a  fine  if  you're  in  error.  In  many 
states,  you  could  find  yourself  doing  a  job 
— and  doing  it  well — and  then  not  be 
able  to  collect  a  dime  on  your  agreement. 
Your  case  would  be  thrown  out  of  court. 

Other  points  to  watch: 

1.  Insurance.  Make  sure  you're  covered 
for  all  ordinary  business  risks.  And  re- 
check  from  time  to  time.  Recheck,  too,  if 
you  make  changes  in  your  operation.  For 
example,  you  might  start  storing  flamma- 
ble liquids  in  your  hardware  store.  Even 
though  in  approved  containers,  the  fact 
might  void  your  fire  policy. 

2.  Lease.    Watch    your   obligations.

Maintenance  costs,  repiairs,  upkeep,  might 
be  more  than  you  anticipate.  Negotiate  all 
these  details  before  you  sign. 

3.  Name.  Be  sure  you  aren't  using 
someone  else's — or  something  very  similar. 
Most  states  keep  a  record  of  all  corpora- 
tion names.  In  addition,  check  phone 
books,  city  directories,  and  trade  director- 
ies, in  the  area  in  which  you  expect  to  op-

Can  a  customer  recover  damages  from 
an  unlicensed  contractor?  Yes  (  )  No(  ) 

You  get  bids  on  a  roof  repair  job  for 
your  hotel.  Low  bidder  begins  the  work, 
and  you  notice  he  isn't  too  experienced. 
He  removes  some  studs — and  the  roof 
caves  in.  He  claims  the  building  was  de- 
fective before  he  started  and  demands  an 
extra  $5000  to  rebuild. 

You  know  perfectly  well  the  fault  was 
his  and  refuse  to  pay  anything  extra.  He 
walks  off  the  job.  It  costs  you  $10,000  to 
have  someone  else  complete  the  job.  This 
is  far  more  than  the  original  cost  of  simply 
repairing  the  roof. 

Can  You  Collect? 

So  you  sue  the  company  for  your  addi- 
tional expenses.  And  then,  for  the  first 
time,  you  discover  he  isn't  a  licensed  con- 
tractor. And  his  attorney  points  out  that 
by  dealing  with  his  client,  you  actually 
helped   him  evade  the  State's   regulatory

t)thers,  have  a  written  agreement  provid- 
ing that  the  contractor  has  complied  with 
all  State,  Federal,  and  local  laws.  And 
also  that  he' II  be  responsible  for  any  dam- 
age. 

If  there's  a  cjuestion  about  his  financial 
standing,  and  the  job  is  fairly  important, 
you  might  consider  having  him  bonded.

Arc  you  responsible  if  you  cash  checks 
for  an  old  customer  who,  it  turns  out,  has 
embezzled  them  ?  Yes  (  )  No  (  ) 

You  operate  a  restaurant  and  bar  .icross 
the  street  from  a  pipe  corporation.  Se\eral 
of  the  top  br.iss  eat  at  your  place.  Their 
group  includes  the  company  treasurer.  He 
has  been  a  good  customer  for  a  long  time. 
Ever  so  often  he's  cashed  checks  with  you. 
These  were  made  out  by  various  concerns 
to  the  pipe  firm.  There  was  a  rubber-stamp 
endorsement  by  the  pipe  concern,  followed 
by  the  treasurer's  signature. 

This  check-cashing  went  on  from  1952 
to  1958.  Then  the  treasurer  was  arrested 
for  embezzlement.  Seems  he'd  been  play-

and  losing  large  amounts  of  money.  He 
paid  his  debts  by  cashing  the  firm's  checks. 

Who  Has  To  Pay? 

To  your  surprise  and  consternation,  the 
company  demands  that  you  repay  them 
for  all  the  checks  you  cashed.  Their  at- 
torney says,  "You  saw  that  they  were  all 
made  out  to  the  company.  Yet  you  never 
once  inquired  about  the  treasurer's  author- 
ity to  cash  them.  This  amounts  to  'negli- 
gent ignorance' — a  deliberate  closing  of 
your  eyes  to  the  truth."  Must  you  pay.' 

Not  In  Louisiana 

Not  in  this  situation,  a  Louisiana  court 
decided  recently.  Here  the  company  offi- 
cers not  only  tolerated  but  encouraged  the 
treasurer's  gambling.  And  they  apparently 
failed  to  audit  his  books  over  a  period  of 
years.  So  as  between  two  injured  parties,

Lawyers  recommend:  This  was  a  close 
case.  It  could  easily  have  gone  the  other 
way.  It's  not  enough  just  to  "know  your 
endorser."  You  should  know  his  authority 
to  cash  a  check,  too.  Most  companies  de- 
posit their  checks  directly  into  their  banks. 
So  he  snsptcions  when  an  individual  tries

You're  president  of  a  bolt  corporation. 
The  company  is  struggling  hard.  You  hire 
a  management  expert  to  straighten  things 
out,  at  a  salary  of  $900  a  month.  The  ex- 
pert accomplishes  miracles.  "Within  a  short 
time,  orders  are  up,  costs  are  down,  and 
you're  showing  a  tidy  profit.  So  you  an- 
nounce that  a  Christmas  bonus  will  be 
paid  to  all  employees.  The  expert,  as  the 
one  responsible,  will  receive  about  $5000. 

Soon  after,  the  expert  buys  a  home,  and 
you  are  requested  to  give  loan  information.

Is  Bonus  Payment  Necessary? 

Shortly  before  Christmas,  you  and  your 
management  expert  have  a  very  serious 
falling-out.  You  fire  him.  He  demands  the 
salary  coming  to  him,  which  you  give  him. 
He  also  demands  his  $5000  bonus — which 
you  refuse.  You  insist  a  bonus  is  nothing 
more  than  a  gratuity  or  gift.  You  say  you 
made  him  no  delinite,  legally  binding 
promise,  and  tell  him  he  has  no  claim. 
What  did  the  court  say  ? 

You  must  pay  the  bonus,  a  California 
court  has  declared.  It's  true  the  bonus-talk 
was  indefinite.  But  you  expressed  yourself 
definitely  on  the  loan  application.  This 
was  confirmation  of  the  promise — and  you 
must  pay  at  least  the  $4000  mentioned. 

Lawyers  recommend:  When  making 
bonus  plans,  spell  out  the  terms  and  con- 
ditions in  your  announcement  to  employ- 
ees. If  it's  based  on  a  definite  percentage 
of  profits,  say  so.  If  it's  to  be  a  definite 
amount,  say  so.  And  if  you  don't  intend 
to  pay  it  unless  the  employee  is  still  work- 
ing by  a  definite  date — say  so  !

10  Calif,  groups  win 
fleet  safety  honors 

Ten  law  enfortcincnt  groups  from  Cali- 
tornia  have  earned  national  recognition 
for  outstanding  fleet  traflu  safety  records 
in  the  operation  of  police  vehit  les.  Names 
ol  the  winners  were  annt)unced  reiently 
hy  the  National  Safety  Council. 

The  police  fleets  arc  winners  in  a  spe- 
cial division  of  the  National  I'leet  Safety 
Contest  conducted  by  the  council  and 
sponsored  by  the  International  Association 
of  Chiefs  of  Police. 

A  total  of  26'i  fleets  took  part  in  the 
contest  and  traveled  49'),68«,0()()  during 
the  12-month  period  ending  June  30. 
lyiS.  They  had  6.60-1  reportable  accidents 
—  1.3.S  accidents  every  100,000  vehicle 
miles.  Thirty-four  of  the  fleets  had  perfect 
records. 

Municipal  police  had  a  combined  rate  of 
2.62  and  state  police  a  combined  rate  of 
.44 — lowest  rates  in  the  four  years  the 
lACP  has  sponsored  the  police  division. 

The  California  groups  who  placed  in 
\arious  categories  are:  California  High- 
way Patrol;  Sheriff's  Department,  San 
Joaquin  County,  Stockton;  and  the  Police 
Departments  of  Riverside,  El  Cerrito, 
Maywood,  Pasadena,  San  Jose,  South  Gate, 
Salinas,  and  Downey. 

Civil  liberties  group 
holds  prison  institute 

Two  suggested  solutions  to  law  enforce- 
ment problems  were  among  the  highlights 
of  the  recently-held  Eighth  Annual  Prison 
Institute  on  Civil  Liberties  and  Law  En- 
forcement. 

The  seminar  was  held  in  San  Francisco 
under  sponsorship  of  American  Friends 
Ser\ice  Committee. 

Certain  tactics  in  the  Bay  Area  were 
brought  under  fire  by  some  of  the  mem- 
bers of  a  panel  discussion  which  was  en- 
titled: "Civil  Liberties,  the  Policeman,  and 
Police  Station." 

Deputy  Public  Defender  Ruth  Cessna 
criticized  San  Francisco's  policy  of  taking 
mug  shots  and  fingerprints  of  everyone, 
including  the  teenager,  who  is  brought  in 
and  booked.  She  pointed  out  to  another 
panel  member.  Assistant  District  Attorney 
Cecil  Poole,  that  if  no  charges  are  made 
the  photo  and  prints  should  be  destroyed 
to  keep  the  innocent  from  having  a  record. 

Retorted  Poole:  "That's  the  most  asi- 
nine thing  I've  ever  heard." 

However,  Miss  Cessna  and  Ernest 
Besig,  a  director  of  the  American  Civil 
Liberties  Union,  later  directed  a  spirited 
attack  on  some  of  the  other  tactics  al- 
legedly used  by  San  Francisco  police. 

Miss  Cessna  declared  that  a  person  who 
is  beaten  up  and  robbed  and  left  bleeding 
in  the  street  is  often  booked  as  a  drunk  by

SF  police.  She  said  this  is  done  so  they  can 
be  questioned  the  next  morning. 

"No  police  officer  should  be  in  a  posi- 
tion to  judge  if  a  victim  is  a  drunk  or  a 
medical  case.  Some  of  these  people  are 
injured  and  it's  going  to  cause  a  great  em- 
barrassment to  the  police  when  someone 
dies  on  their  hands.  " 

Besig  charged  that  police  are  abusing 
the  vagrancy  and  drunk  laws.  "We  have 
scores  of  complaints  from  people  who 
have  been  picked  up  for  no  reason,"  he 
said.  "When  we  turn  these  complaints 
over  to  the  Police  Commission,  they  com- 
pletely ignore  us." 

Many  members  of  the  audience  got  up 
and  voiced  their  opinions  from  the  floor.

UC,  and  one  of  the  main  speakers,  said: 
"The  solution  to  problems  of  law  enforce- 
ment must  be  twofold:  (1)  We  must  do 
something  to  get  better  policemen,  even 
if  it  means  paying  them  higher  salaries, 
and  (2)  there  should  be  an  independent 
State  agency  where  complaints  can  be 
taken  and  not  whitewashed  by  a  chief  or 
police  commission.  " 

In  front  page  newspaper  stories,  S1-" 
Police  Chief  Cahill  emphatically  denied 
the  charges  which  had  arisen  during  the 
seminar. 

"We  do  not  make  illegal  arrests,  "  he 
said.  "I've  seen  letters  from  Besig  many 
times.  All  complaints  arc  thoroughly  in- 
vestigated and  our  discipline  speaks  for 
itself.  I  don't  have  to  defend  it."

Correction 

In  the  hist  issue  of  The  Journal,  we 
inadvertently  left  out  the  names  of  two 
San  Francisco  police  officers,  in  a  story  we 
ran  about  Rudy  Nieto.  The  paragraphs, 
telling  of  a  daylight  burglary,  should  have 
included  the  names  of  Officers  Joe  Belan- 
toni  and  Frank  McFarland. 

The  Journal  regrets  omission  of  their 
names.

FEW  SCIENTIFIC  DEVICES  used  in  claims 
work  have  received  as  much  publicity, 
yet  are  still  so  misunderstood  by  many,  as 
the  "lie  detector."  Nor  have  many  investi- 
gation devices  had  the  possibility  for  use 
by  insurance  companies  as  has  the  "lie  de- 
tector." 

Regardless  of  what  one  reads,  there  is 
no  trustworthy  device  which  can  detect 
lies  or  truth  by  the  swing  of  a  dial  needle, 
the  flashing  of  a  light,  or  the  ringing  of 
a  bell.  Nor  are  there  any  devices  of  any 
type  which  can  consistently  detect  lies  by 
measuring  only  one  of  the  various  physio- 
logical changes  involved  when  a  person 
does  lie. 

There  are,  however,  reliable  and  valid 
instruments  termed  "polygraphs"  which 
chart  several  changes.  The  basic  polygraph 
records  changes  in  a  person's  pulse,  blood 
pressure,  and  breathing.  In  addition,  cer- 
tain polygraphs  now  record  arm  and  leg 
movements  and/or  tensions  and  changes 
in  perspiration.  All  these  changes  can  be 
interpreted — but  only  by  an  expert — as  in- 
dicating either  truth  or  falsehood. 

Wider  Use  By  Insurance  Firms 

Although  one  reads  most  about  the  use 
of  the  polygraph  by  police  departments

and  the  Federal  Government,  more  and 
more  insurance  companies  are  now  using 
scientific  lie  detection  to  assist  them.  Em- 
bezzlements, frauds,  inventory  shortages, 
mysterious  disappearances,  and  thefts  are 
the  most  common  cases. 

Almost  every  insurance  polygraph  test 
is  concerned  with  two  issues :  guilty  knowl- 
edge and  actual  participation.  That  is,  does 
the  person  know  who  committed  the  act, 
and,  was  the  person  himself  involved? 
Usually  these  two  issues  are  covered  along 
with  one  or  two  other  relevant  questions, 
such  as,  did  the  person  lock  the  safe  as 
he  claimed  he  did?  Of  course,  the  ques- 
tions are  worded  to  cover  whatever  the 
claims  man  considers  most  important. 

Value  of  Polygraph  Use 
Important  results  will  accrue  when  the 
services  of  a  competent  polygraph  exam- 
iner are  utilized  by  insurance  claims  men 
and  adjusters.  The  most  important  reasons 
for  using  the  polygraph  are: 

1 .  Innocence  can  be  much  more  quickly 
propen,  and  therefore,  the  innocent  per- 
son sooner  freed  from  suspicion.  This  is 
undoubtedly  the  greatest  value  of  the 
technique,  and  makes  one  wonder  how  the

term  "lie  detector"  was  given  to  the  poly- 
graph instead  of  "truth  prover." 

For  example,  on  a  recent  Friday,  two 
checks  disappeared  from  the  payroll  de- 
partment of  a  large  New  York  firm.  The 
checks  were  cashed  that  very  afternoon  at 
a  bank  about  two  miles  away. 

A  document  expert  said  the  check  en- 
dorsements were  in  the  handwriting  of  the 
young  woman  who  was  responsible  for 
distributing  them.  Furthermore,  the  wom- 
an's supervisor  recalled  that  he  had  "bawl- 
ed her  out"  for  taking  about  30  minutes 
on  a  15  minute  break  that  Friday  after- 
noon. She  claimed  she  had  dashed  out  to 
do  some  shopping  at  a  nearby  store.  Also 
"proving"  her  guilt  was  the  fact  that  on 
the  previous  Wednesday  her  husband 
paid  a  $500  settlement  in  a  civil  suit.  The 
two  stolen  checks  had  totaled  $551. 

Test  Proves  Innocence 

Investigators  told  her  that  if  she  would 
admit  the  theft  and  make  restitution  there 
would  be  no  prosecution.  Disregarding 
the  evidence  against  her  and  refusing  to 
make  restitution,  much  less  admit  the 
theft,  the  girl  maintained  her  innocence. 

She  was  brought  to  a  polygraph  labora-

Insurance  firms 
are  finding  new 
use  for  polygraph 

tory,  but  the  investigators  asked  the  ex- 
aminer only  to  interrogate  her  and  not  to 
bother  with  any  polygraph  tests.  However, 
she  was  tested,  and  the  polygraph  ileariy 
indicated  her  innocence.  The  investigators 
called  the  instrument  "the  bunk"  and  said 
they  were  going  to  prosecute.  The  com- 
pany lawyer  intervened  because  of  the  ex- 
aminer's report.  Nevertheless,  the  woman 
was  tired. 

Three  weeks  later  one  of  the  office  boys 
W.1S  seen  slipping  a  check  inside  his  shirt. 
He  was  questioned  and  confessed  this 
theft  as  well  as  the  theft  and  endorsement 
of  the  other  two  checks. 

Ascertaining  Deception 

2.  Deceplwit  on  the  part  of  an  indivi- 
dual can  be  much  more  easily  and  accu- 
rately ascertained  by  the  polygraph  than 
by  any  other  known  method.  An  outside 
auditor  discovered  there  had  been  a  sys- 
tematic embezzlement  of  funds  from  a  cer- 
tain company.  The  head  bookkeeper  was 
suspected,  but  he  would  make  no  admis- 
sion. Basing  his  claim  more  on  a  guess 
than  facts,  the  insured  wanted  §18,000  as 
a  settlement.  The  insurance  company  re- 
fused to  pay.  Howe\er,  it  suggested  the 
bookkeeper  be  tested  on  the  polygraph. 

Before  his  tirst  test,  the  bookkeeper  con- 
fessed to  the  polygraph  examiner  that  he 
had  embezzled  some  $600.  He  was  then 
tested,  and  gave  dramatic  responses  indi-

eating  he  had  stolen  more  than  that 
amount.  After  about  five  minutes  of  in- 
terrogation, he  admitted  he  had  really 
stolen  $1,335  over  a  period  of  nine  years. 
Further  testing  clearly  indicated  he  was 
now  telling  the  truth. 

However,  the  insured  refused  to  accept 
the  examiner's  opinion,  since  he  was  sure 
the  amount  embezzled  ran  well  over  $15,- 
000.  He  hired  a  special  team  of  auditors. 
These  auditors,  after  spending  some  five 
weeks  going  over  the  books,  had  the  satis- 
faction of  proving  the  polygraph  examiner 
had  made  a  mistake — the  man  had  not 
stolen  $1,335  as  reported,  but  $1,340. 

Induces  Offenders  to  Confess 

3.  The  entire  testing  procedure  has  a 
decided  psychological  effect  in  inducing 
offenders  to  confess  their  crimes.  Between 
Thanksgiving  and  December  20,  one  year, 
during  the  night  shift,  a  plastics  factory 
had  seven  fires,  five  of  which  were  defi- 
nitely arson.  Local  police  investigators 
urged  both  company  officials  and  insurance 
investigators  to  have  the  14  people  who 
could  have  set  these  fires  take  polygraph 
tests.  However,  no  tests  were  conducted, 
since  those  in  authority  didn't  believe  in 
lie  detection. 

On  December  28,  another  fire  broke 
out.  But,  unlike  the  others,  this  one  raged 
out  of  control — causing  physical  damage 
of  $87,000  and  shutting  down  the  plant. 
The  next  morning  polygraph  tests  were 
started,  and  before  lunchtime  one  of  the 
workers  confessed  to  the  polygraph  ex- 
aminer that  he  had  set  all  eight  fires.  He 
admitted  this  before  a  single  test  had  been 
run,  while  the  examiner  was  giving  the 
pre-test  interview.  Had  the  polygraph 
tests  been  given  before  the  destructive 
fire,  the  man  probably  would  have  con- 
fessed at  that  time. 

Saves  Time  and  Effort 

4.  W'^heii  the  services  of  a  competent 
polygraph  examiner  are  used,  insurance 
claims  men  and  adjusters  will  save  time 
and  effort.  In  August,  1932,  an  armored 
truck  was  parked  behind  a  Washington, 
D.  C,  hotel  and  the  four  crewmen  left  it 
to  go  to  lunch.  When  making  their  after- 
noon deliveries  they  discovered  that  a  bag 
containing  $65,000  in  cash  was  missing,

About  1^  Washington  detectives  and  I'BI 
agents  were  assigned  to  the  case. 

Under  suspicion  were  the  crewmen  and 
two  former  employes.  The  latter  were  put 
under  arrest.  That  afternoon  a  polygraph 
examiner  flew  to  Washington  with  a  com- 
pletely portable  polygraph.  That  night  the 
first  man  tested  was  one  of  the  former 
employes. 

Following  two  tests,  he  confessed  to  the 
theft  and  led  the  investigators  to  a  forest 
where  he  had  buried  the  money.  Thus, 
within  hours  after  the  commission  of  the 
crime,  the  $6*), 000  had  been  recovered. 

">.  The  polygraph  will  ojleii  iiiicoier 
deliberitlely  "kited''  shor/iiges.  A  company 
caught  an  employe  stealing  an  item  worth 
$2.9*^.  Threatened  with  criminal  prosecu- 
tion, the  employe  signed  a  confession  to 
stealing  some  S4,600  worth  of  stock. 

When  the  insurance  company  attempted 
to  get  restitution,  the  employe  said  the 
total  thefts  would  not  be  more  than  S300 
in  merchandise.  Naturally,  the  employer 
denied  using  duress.  The  employe  was 
tested  on  the  polygraph  and  found  to  be 
telling  the  truth.  The  employer  accepted 
a  check  for  S.300  as  full  .settlement  of  the 
claim. 

Preventing  Future  Thefts 

-  6.  Use  of  the  polygraph  will  help  pre- 
vent future  thefts.  Experience  has  shown 
that  most  dishonest  employes  do  not  stop 
at  one  theft.  TTicy  keep  stealing  and  usual- 
ly in  greater  amounts.  Use  now  of  the 
polygraph  tends  to  weed  out  that  thief. 
Claims  men  also  report  that  the  polygraph 
serves  as  an  .ictive  deterrent  on  other  em- 
ployes in  the  future  at  those  places  where 
some  employes  have  taken  the  test. 

These  are  the  six  main  reasons  why 
more  insurance  companies  are  utilizing 
polygraphs.  There  are  other  uses,  such  as 
testing  a  confessed  embezzler  to  determine 
the  amount  and  location  of  any  hidden 
assets  he  might  be  concealing  from  the 
investigators. 

Also,  in  the  investigation  of  personal 
property  losses  where  the  circumstances 
are  suspicious,  and  the  investigator  is 
morally  certain  that  the  claim  is  fraudu- 
lent, nothing  is  lost  by  suggesting  a  poly-

graph  test  to  the  insured.  This  can  he 
done  under  the  guise  of  speeding  up  the 
investigation  and  payment  of  the  tlaim. 
Many  times  in  cases  of  this  type  the  in- 
sured has  agreed  to  testing.  Mink  coats 
and  diamond  rings  have  turned  up  just 
as  mysteriously  as  the)  had  disappeared  in 
such  cases — before  the  tests  were  con- 
ducted. 

Geiting  People  id  Take  Tests 
Since  no  one  can  be  forced  to  take  the 
examination,  some  insurance  men  believe 
that  no  one  would  ever  agree  to  take  the 
test.  They  overlook  the  proven  fact  that 
if  the  instrument  is  first  properly  ex- 
plained, the  innocent  are  more  than  glad 
to  take  the  test  so  they  can  prove  their  in- 
nocence. The  guilty  almost  always  agree 
to  the  test  too,  since  they  feel  they  "must" 
take  it  if  their  pleas  of  innocence  are  to  be 
believed. 

Many  claims  men  use  the  following 
tcihiiicjuc  to  have  people  agree  to  take  the 
polygraph  examination : 

Q:  You  claim  you  have  no  knowledge 
of  how  the  merchandise  disappeared  from 
your  truck? 

A:  That's  what  I've  been  telling  you — 
it  must  have  been  taken  by  someone  with 
a  skeleton  key. 

Q:   Are  you  willing  to  prove  that  you 
don't  know  anything  about  this  loss? 
A:   Sure. 

Q;  Well,  th.it's  fine.  I'm  glad  to  hear 
you  are  willing  to  take  a  polygraph  test — 
that's  what  the  newspapers  call  a  lie  de- 
tector test. 

A:  Say,  that's  great!  (Probably  inno- 
cent.) Or,  well,  ah,  yeh,  I'll  take  it.  (Pos- 
sibly lying.) 

If  a  group  of  people  are  to  take  the 
test,  and  it  appears  that  only  one  person 
was  involved  in  the  theft,  this  technique 
can  be  used  when  all  suspects  are  assem- 
bled together.  Insurance  men  have  re- 
ported that  innocent  persons  immediately 
agree  to  take  tests,  and  the  guilty  party 
joins  in  so  as  not  to  be  conspicuous  by 
his  refusal. 

Or,  the  guilty  party  may  think  he  can 
"beat  the  machine,"  or  that  the  manage-

merit  will  forget  about  the  tests  if  he 
shows  his  "innocence"  by  agreeing.  So 
frequently  do  guilty  subjects  agree  to  test- 
ing, that  it  is  important  to  test  immediately 
those  who  are  willing  before  any  can 
change  their  minds. 

Determining  Cost 

There  is  no  fixed  method  of  paying  for 
the  test  or  for  determining  the  charge. 
Many  insurance  companies  make  an  agree- 
ment with  the  insured  before  the  tests  that 
the  insured  is  to  pay  the  cost,  or  that  the 
costs  are  to  be  split  50-50. 

The  actual  cost  of  the  examination 
varies  from  case  to  case.  It  is  dependent 
upon  the  number  of  people  to  be  tested, 
where  the  people  are  to  be  tested,  the  is- 
sues involved,  and  the  size  of  the  loss. 
Polygraphs  Legal  Status 

There  is  no  federal  or  state  law  in  this 
country  which  prohibits  the  giving  of 
polygraph  tests.  Before  any  examinations 
are  conducted,  a  polygraph  organization 
requires  that  the  subject  first  agrees  to  take 
the  tests.  Further,  before  each  examination 
the  polygraph  examiner  should  have  the 
person  sign  a  release.

Contrary  to  popular  belief,  any  admis- 
sions and/or  confessions  gained  through 
the  use  of  the  polygraph  are  acceptable  in 
any  court.  This  is  significant  since  more 
than  68%  of  those  lying  give  a  full  con- 
fession to  the  examiners.  The  opinions  per 
se  of  the  polygraph  examiner  are  accept- 
able if  there  is  a  previously-signed  agree- 
ment and  stipulation  to  that  effect. 
Accuracy  of  Technique 

If  a  typewriter  salesman  were  to  be 
asked  what  the  accuracy  of  a  certain  type- 
writer is  at  grammar  and  spelling,  he 
would  first  look  at  the  questioner  incred- 
ulously, then  he  would  have  to  stifle  a 
smile.  The  salesman  knows  the  "acc;iracy" 
of  any  typewriter  is  completely  depend- 
ent upon  the  typist.  It  is  exactly  the  same 
situation  with  the  polygraph — it  is  only 
as  reliable  and  valid  as  the  examiner. 

However,  insurance  men  must  remem- 
ber that  there  are  few  truly  competent  ex- 
aminers. A  prospective  user  of  the  poly- 
graph should  very  carefully  check  the 
qualifications  of  any  examiner  he  intends 
to  employ  and  make  sure  he  belongs  to 
the  American  Academy  of  Polygraph  Ex-

aminers. 

The  latest  estimation  of  a  well-known 
brand  of  polygraph  is  based  upon  a  nine- 
year  study  of  12,750  actual  case  subjects. 
It  accords  to  this  technique  an  accuracy  of 
96%,  with  a  3%  margin  of  indefinite 
(inconclusive)  determinations  and  a  1% 
margin  of  maximum  possible  error.  In 
other  words,  in  the  examination  of  100 
subjects,  the  examiner  can  report  a  defi- 
nite and  accurate  diagnosis  as  to  the  guilt 
or  innocence  of  96  of  these  subjects.  The 
actual  known  error  of  this  firm's  various 
labs  for  the  past  nine  years  is  less  than 
.0004.

Law  enforcement  names  in  the  news 


>AN  FRANCISCO  -  The  uixoniing 
81st  annual  Police  Ball  will  be  the  "big- 
gest and  best  of  them  all,  "  according  to 
San  Francisco  police  ofiicials. 

The  yearly  fund  raising  event  will  be 
held  on  two  nights,  April  17  and  IS,  in 
San  I-rancisco's  Civic  Auditorium. 

"No  policeman  ever  receives  a  cent  troni 
these  funds."  stated  General  Chairman 
John  Meehan.  "All  proceeds  go  to  the 
Widows'  and  Orphans'  Aid  Associ.ition.  " 

The  famous  Irish  tenor,  Dennis  Day, 
will  be  the  star  attraction.  Local,  State,  and 
Federal  government  officials  will  also  be 
among  the  celebrities  who  will  attend  the 
Ball.  Among  the  gifts,  or  door  awards, 
will  be  a  iy'i9  Buick  "Le  Sabre"  2-door 
sedan,  courtesy  of  Brown  Buick  Co. 

"Indications  are  that  this  year's  ball  will 
be  the  best  we've  ever  put  on,"  one  official 
said.  "Tickets  are  still  available,  so  if  you 
like  good  entertainment  plus  a  chance  to 
help  a  worthy  cause,  come  to  our  Ball  on 
April  17  or  18.  Either  night,  we're  sure 
you  won't  be  disappointed." 


WILLOWS,  CAL.  —  Willows'  police 
chief  since  195'i,  Homer  Porter,  has  as- 
sumed his  new  duties  with  the  State  De- 
partment of  Justice,  Bureau  of  ^Criminal 
Identification  and  Investigation,  Sacra- 
mento. 

Patrolman  Bill  Campbell  has  been 
named  acting  police  chief,  according  to  an 
announcement  by  Police  Commissioner 
Charles  Brown. 


CRESCENT  CITY,  CAL.  —  Police 
C;hief  William  Burke  has  announced  the 
hiring  of  I'rank  C!arroll  as  the  new  police- 
man here.  Carroll  replaces  Herschell  Scott 
who  resigned  recently. 

The  new  lawman  was  formerly  a  teacher 
in  Hoopa,  and  in  the  Youth  Guidance 
Center  in  San  Francisco,  and  worked  .is  an 
insurance  adjuster  before  he  joined  the 
Crescent  Clity  Police  Department. 

Carroll  and  his  wife  are  parents  of  six 
children. 


MARTINEZ,  CAL.  -Sheriff  Walter  F. 
Young  has  announced  the  transfer  of  In- 
spector Ray  Stoffels,  formerly  of  the  Oak- 
ley sub-station.  Stoffels  now  heads  the 
records  and  identification  bureau  in  the 
main  office  of  the  sheriff's  department. 
Stoffels'  new  superior  is  Detective  Chief 
John  Kirschner. 

Detective  Charles  Myhre  is  now  e.xdu- 
sively  on  detective  division  assignments. 
Myhre  has  been  doing  fingerprint  and 
photo  work  in  addition  to  his  other  duties. 

Under  the  new  plan,  Oakley  sub-station 
will  have  no  commander,  but  it  will  be 
under  supervision  of  Lieut.  Robert  Fischer, 
head  of  the  patrol  division. 

Young  took  over  the  sheriff  duties  in 
January  and  later  named  Harry  Ramsay, 
formerly  of  the  detective  division,  as  his 
undersheriff. 


ARCADIA,  CAL.— Thomas  Donahue, 
Giles  W.  Hanscom,  and  Lawrence  Ostler 
have  joined  the  Arcadia  police  patrol  divi- 
sion following  completion  of  law  enforce- 
ment training  at  Biscailuz  Center. 

The  men  trained  six  days  a  week  for 
nine  weeks.  Each  Saturday  they  received 
practical  field  experience  by  working  with 
deputy  sheriffs  in  Los  Angeles  County. 

At  the  graduation  ceremonies  were  Cap- 
tain W.  Tope,  Chief  of  Police  Robert 
Seares,  and  Sheriff  Peter  J.  Pitchess. 


JACKSON,  CAL.— A  plan  to  keep  the 
Amador  County  Sheriff's  office  open  until 
2  a.m.  has  been  inaugurated  by  Sheriff 
Karl  Joses. 

Ronald  Curran,  deputy  from  lone,  and 
Russell  Herman,  newly  appointed  deputy 
from  Plymouth,  will  have  the  duty  from 
5  p.m.  to  2  in  the  morning. 

Formerly,  the  office  was  only  open  from 
8:30  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  Monday  through  Fri- 
day. Sheriff  Joses  and  Undersheriff  Joseph 
Martin,  of  Sutter  Creek,  were  reached  by 
phone  at  their  residences.  The  new  shifts 
are  so  staggered  that  both  deputies  are  on 
duty  on  Friday,  Saturday,  and  Sunday. 

Sheriff  Joses  feels  that  any  man  in  the 
office  answering  calls  can  get  to  any  place 
in  the  county  quicker  than  a  man  in  a 
given  area  who  has  to  be  telephoned  and 
awakened,  and  who  has  to  get  dressed.

PROMOTING   BETTER   LAW    ENFORCEMENT  SINCE    1922 


Vol.  XXIX 


MARCH,   19v; 


Nd.   1 


A  plea  to  10,000  killers: 


Follotv  a  few  traffic  ftps 
and  you  can  help  cut  down  the  slaughter 


Ti;n  thousand  killers,  presently  at 
liberty,  deceptively  normal  in  appear- 
ance and  speech,  will  during  the  remain- 
der of  the  year  take  the  lives  of  over  32,- 
000  American  of  all  ages.  Some  of  these 
killers  were  on  the  loose  in  California 
during  1958. 

Police  and  FBI  are  powerless  to  cope 
with  these  slayers.  Our  armed  forces 
couldn't  help,  even  if  called  into  action. 
Indeed,  the  assassins  themselves  don't 
know  what  they'll  do.  They  don't  know 
whom  they'll  kill.  Or  when.  Or  where. 

Who  are  they .'  Someone  you  know  may 
be  one  of  them.  They're  ail  motorists — 
and  pretty  good  drivers,  too.  Whom  will 
they  slay.-'  Strangers.  Friends.  Even  their 
own  families.  Why.'  Because  at  this  mo- 
ment— even  if  they're  reading  this  article 
— they  don't  know  that  tomorrow's  burst 
of  extra  speed  ...  or  next  week's  decision 
to  teach  that  "wise  guy"  on  the  road  a 
good  lesson  ...  or  last  month's  failure  to 
have  the  car  properly  serviced  .  .  .  will 
result  in  death. 

California  Decrease 

In  California,  traffic  accidents  took  the 
lives  of  3510  persons,  a  decrease  of  181 
from  the  previous  year. 

California  Highway  Patrol  Commis- 
sioner B.  R.  Caldwell,  in  announcing  the 
official  figures,  added  that  the  number  of 
persons  injured  increased  by  slightly  more 
than  one-half  of  one  per  cent.  The  1958 


total  was  135,565,  a  gain  of  743  over  the   $ 
previous  year.  e 

"A  reduction  of  almost  five  per  cent  in  -'■ 
fatalities  is  gratifying  and  encouraging," 
Caldwell  said,  "but  it  should  be  looked 
upon  less  as  an  accomplishment  than  as  a 
challenge  to  do  even  better  this  year. 
There  can  be  no  let-up  in  the  continuing 
fight  to  save  lives.  " 

In  San  Francisco 

After  a  preliminary  tally  of  San  Fran- 
cisco's traffic  accident  toll  for  1958,  Police 
Chief  Thomas  J.  Cahill  released  the  fol- 
lowing figures  with  a  plea  to  all  San  Fran- 
ciscans to  read  them  carefully — and  think.

Police  and  Fillmore  citizens  seek 
ways  to  curb  crime  in  the  Negro  ghetto 


The  following  article  is  part  of  a  series 
which  ran  recently  in  The  San  Francisco 
Chronicle.  The  ivhole  series  discussed 
the  crime  situation  in  San  Francisco's' heav- 
ily-populated Negro  area,  the  Fillmore 
District. 

hi  researching  for  the  series  on  street 
crimes,  Chronicle  reporter  Arthur 
Hoppe  found  that  an  ever-increasing  num- 
ber were  being  committed  by  Negroes. 

Explaining  its  reasons  for  the  articles, 
the  newspaper  stated  that  many  San  Fran- 
ciscans are  privately  expressing  alarm 
about  the  Fillmore  crime  situation,  using 
sweeping  generalities  and  quoting  exag- 
gerated figures. 

Said  the  Chronicle:  "To  talk  about 
the  ugly  fact  of  a  high  Negro  crime  rate 
without  discussing  the  reasons  for  it  only 
adds  to  racial  bitterness  on  both  sides.'' 

Reasons  for  the  series,  the  paper  fur- 
ther pointed  out,  is  an  attempt  to  spell  out 
the  problem  as  objectively  as  possible,  an- 
alyze its  causes,  and  discuss  its  possible 
solutions. 

The  Chronicle  has  granted  permission 
to  the  Police  &  Peace  Officers  Jour- 
nal to  reprint  this  article,  the  fourth  in 
the  series. 

by  Arthur  Hoppe 
San  Francisco  Chronicle 

One  afternoon,  not  so  long  ago,  a 
young  Negro  college  graduate  came 
home  bursting  with  pride  to  tell  his 
mother  he  had  just  been  accepted  as  an 
officer  on  the  San  Francisco  police  force. 

His  mother  looked  at  him  strangely  for 
a  moment  and  then  replied: 

"I  would  rather  see  you  dead." 

To  the  mother,  a  respectable,  law-abid- 
ing woman,  her  son  had  gone  over  to  the 
enemy. 

Her  attitude  is  perhaps  an  extreme.  But 
former  Assistant  District  Attorney  Cecil 
Poole,  himself  a  Negro,  told  this  story  as 
indicative  of  the  Fillmore  district's  general 
view  of  the  policeman  as  a  symbol  not  of 
protection,  but  of  oppression. 

Distrust 

Behind   this   distrust  and  animosity  is 


the  fact  that  the  vast  majority  of  the  city's 
50,000  Negroes  migrated  here  from  the 
South. 

"They  came  from  a  culture,"  says  Seaton 
Manning,  head  of  the  Urban  League  here, 
"where  the  policeman  was  a  white  man 
carrying  a  club.  " 

The  Negro  newcomer  has  seen  little  in 
San  Francisco  that  would  change  his  opin- 
ion. 

It  has  long  been  official  Police  Depart- 
ment policy  to  treat  all  citizens,  white  or 
black,  with  equal  consideration.  This  has 
not  necessarily  been  the  policy  of  every 
policeman. 

Negro-Haters 

A  few  police  officers,  as  in  every  walk 
of  life,  are  Negro-haters.  Unfortunately, 
they  are  in  a  position  to  back  up  their 
opinions  with  the  authority  society  gives 
them. 

Many  policemen,  including  some  of  the 
most  intelligent  on  the  force,  have  adopted 
a  paternalistic  attitude.  "Negroes,"  says 
one  veteran  police  inspector,  "are  children. 
You  have  to  treat  them  like  children  and 
you  can't  let  them  get  the  upper  hand." 

Even  the  policeman  who  keeps  racial 
prejudice  out  of  it  may  well  be  more  prone 
to  arrest  a  Negro  than  a  white. 

Resentment 

The  Negro  crime  rate  in  San  Francisco 
is  some  five  times  as  high  as  the  white's. 
Thus,  to  many  a  policeman,  a  black  skin 
is  automatically  suspect. 

Negroes  resent  these  attitudes;  they  re- 
sent them  bitterly. 

As  a  consequence,  Negro  leaders  readily 
admit,  police  in  the  past  have  received 
little  co-operation  in  the  Fillmore. 

"Two  young  hoods  can  pull  a  holdup 
and  run  five  blocks  up  Fillmore  Street  at 
high  noon,"  says  Poole.  "But  strangely 
enough  when  the  police  get  there  no  one 
has  even  caught  a  glimpse  of  them." 

In  turn,  this  lack  of  co-operation  natu- 
rally affects  police  attitudes.  It  also  affects 
the  crime  rate — the  two  Negroes  who  es- 
caped up  Fillmore  today  will  be  free  to 
pull  another  holdup  tomorrow. 

Vice 

One  other  factor  has  served  to  break 


MARCH,   1959 


down   rapport   between   the  Negro  tom- 
munity  and  the  police:  vice. 

In  any  slum,  black  or  white,  sin  is  a 
profitable  commercial  operation.  The  Fill- 
more has  been  no  exception. 

As  recently  as  five  years  ago,  "Madame 
Peggy"  had  three  booming  brothels  going 
at  once  in  the  district  and  her  girls  were 
grossing  up  to  Si 00  a  night  each.  At  the 
same  time,  more  than  one  dingy  Fillmore 
hotel  was  renting  more  than  rooms. 

Where  there  is  open  vice,  there  is  usu- 
ally police  corruption.  Where  there  is  cor- 
ruption, there  is  a  loss  of  respect  for  law 
enforcement. 

No  one  has  proved  that  police  officers 
accepted  pay-offs  from  Madame  Peggy  and 
her  fellow  operators.  Most  Negroes  feel 
sure  they  did. 

Little  Pressure 

Partly  as  a  result  of  these  attitudes  to- 
ward police,  there  has  been  little  organized 
community  pressure  in  the  Fillmore  tor 
more  law  enforcement.  The  same  is  true 
in  the  Tenderloin  and  Skid  Row.  In  a 
sense,  it  would  be  like  welcoming  the 
enemy  with  open  arms. 

To  be  sure,  delegations  of  Negro  min- 
isters called  on  the  police  chief's  office 
periodically  in  the  past.  But  they  received 
little  but  vague  promises  and  broad  gen- 
eralities and  they  have  left  by  the  same 
door  they  entered. 

"A  lot  of  good  it  did,"  said  the  Rev. 
Hamilton  Boswell,  pastor  of  Jones  Meth- 
odist Church,  who  served  on  several  of 
these  delegations. 

Challenge 

"I'll  still  give  you  a  dollar  for  every 
policeman  you  can  see  in  the  Fillmore  in 
an  hour's  tour. 

"They're  indifferent  to  petty  crimes; 
they  don't  want  to  be  involved.  And  when 
something  does  happen,  they  come  in  here 
swinging  sticks  and  pulling  guns. 

"Even  I,"  he  said,  fingering  his  minis- 
terial cloth,  "develop  a  distaste  for  them." 

There  is  some  hope  that  these  attitudes 
are  beginning  to  change  on  both  sides. 

Several  months  ago,  a  warehouseman,  a 
postal  worker,  a  clerk,  an  office  worker, 
and  several  housewives  sat  down  .in  a 
neatly-furnished  living  room  at  1215 
Webster  Street  and  created  something 
known  as  "The  Fillmore  District  Citizens 
Committee." 

Its  purpose  was  to  clean  up  crime  in  the 
Fillmore,  to  make  the  Fillmore  "a  better 
place  to  live.  " 

Letter  to  Mayor 

These  were  not  highly-educated  Ne- 
groes like  Manning,  Poole,  and  the  Rev. 
Mr.  Boswell,  and  the  letter  they  painstak- 
ingly composed  to  the  Mayor  complained 
of  an  assortment  of  crimes  including  "the 
earless  (careless)  tossing  of  bottles  in  this 

area.  (Conlinued  on  next  page)

Nevertheless,  the  letter  asked  for  more 
law  enforcement  and  in  it,  the  committee 
pledged  its  "full  co-operation." 

The  Mayor's  office  routinely  referred  the 
letter  to  the  Police  Chief  and  the  effort 
might  have  ended  there  as  others  had  in 
the  past. 

But  the  new  chief,  Tom  Cahill,  instead 
of  sending  a  patronizingly  polite  letter  in 
reply,  invited  the  committee  down  to  his 
office  for  a  conference. 

They  arrived  a  little  suspicious,  a  little 
defensive. 

Operation  "S"  Explained 

Cahill  listened  to  their  problems  in  the 
Fillmore  and  he  told  them  about  the  ones 
he  faced  with  a  manpower  shortage. 

He  explained  his  plans  for  the  new 
"Operation  S,"  in  which  teams  of  hand- 
picked  plainclothesmen  in  unmarked  cars 
would  hit  the  Fillmore  and  other  high 
crime  areas  several  nights  a  week  to  put 
the  heat  on  the  hoodlum  element. 

These  officers,  he  emphasized,  would 
have  firm  instructions  to  be  polite  to  all 
citizens  and  make  no  arrests  which  weren't 
fully  warranted, 

Wait-and-See 

The  Citizens  Committee,  cautiously  im- 
pressed by  the  reception  on  the  one  hand, 
worried  about  a  possible  "roust"  by  the 
operation  in  the  Fillmore  on  the  other, 
adopted  a  wait-and-see  attitude. 

After  Operation  S  had  been  in  effect 
several  weeks.  Chief  Cahill  took  the  un- 
usual step  of  inviting  the  committee  back 
for  a  second  conference.  He  wanted  to 
know  what  they  thought. 

The  committee  was  enthusiastic.  Its 
president,  Bernard  Davis,  the  postal  work- 
er, reported  that  he  and  his  colleagues  had 
polled  more  than  200  Fillmore  residents 
and  "99  per  cent  are  all  in  favor  of  Opera- 
tion S." 

Cahill  Thanked 

"The  only  people  we  found  who  were 
against  it  were  a  few  bar  owners  who 
thought  their  customers  were  being  scared 
off.  But  to  tell  the  truth,"  he  said  wryly, 
"we're  not  much  interested  in  these  kind 
of  complaints.  " 

Tiie  effectiveness  of  Operation  S  in  the 
Fillmore  is  still  to  be  proved. 

But  the  fact  remains  that  the  Police 
Chief  of  San  Francisco  took  the  time  to 
explain  his  policies  to  and  seek  the  opin- 
ions of  a  group  of  representative  Fillmore 
residents. 

Word  of  this  has  naturally  spread 
through  the  Fillmore.  The  effects  on  age- 
old  animosities  have  been  inestimable. 

'"We  want  to  thank  Police  Chief  Cahill 
from  the  bottom  of  our  hearts  for  the  in- 
terest he  has  shown  in  our  problems  out 
here  in  the  Fillmore,  '  the  warehouseman, 
'Willie  Tance,  told  a  reporter  attending  a 
committee  meeting  the  other  night. 


MARCH,   19^9 


Racial  Equality 

However,  Cahill's  "enlightened"  ap- 
proach serves  to  create  other  problems. 
For  example,  he  has  flatly  refused  requests 
by  the  committee  that  some  of  San  Fran- 
cisco's 16  Negro  patrolmen  be  stationed 
in  the  Fillmore  to  help  break  down  the 
district's  identification  of  the  policeman 
as  "a  white  man  carrying  a  club." 

Ironically,  Cahill's  motives  are  the  high- 
est from  the  Negro's  point  of  view — racial 
equality. 

Tm  not  going  to  make  assignments  on 
the  basis  of  a  man's  race,"  says  Cahill. 
"Every  officer  in  this  department,  Negro 
or  white,  is  going  to  be  treated  exactly  the 
same." 

Fingers  Crossed 

Negro  leaders  in  the  Fillmore  may  dis- 
agree with  Cahill's  decision,  but  they  have

A  FEW  MONTHS  AGO,  Santa  Cruz  Coun- 
ty pinned  its  sheriff  star  on  a  rather 
young  and  comparatively  unknown  police 
sergeant,  33-year-old  Doug  James. 

At  this  early  date,  any  close  evaluation 
of  the  new  sheriff's  performance  would  be 
unfair  —  and,  possibly,  quite  inaccurate. 
But  there  are  signs  that  the  Santa  Cruz 
citizenry  and  Doug  have  found  a  workable 
team  spirit  which  always  makes  for  better 
law  enforcement. 

In  most  cases,  a  person's  general  ajjpear- 
anc  counts  a  lot.  It's  certainly  a  factor  in 
Doug's  case.  Doug  has  that  look  of  confi- 
dence and  leadership.  A  6  foot  4  inch  230 
pounder,  he  has  the  clean,  crew-cut  good 
looks  of  a  big-time  varsity  grid  star. 

Sheriff  Race  Crowded 

Doug  had  been  on  the  Santa  Cruz  police 
force  for  the  past  six  years,  working  most- 
ly with  juvenile  problems.  He  was  the 
force's  Juvenile  Officer  when  he  entered 
the  strenuous  and  somewhat  crowded  race 
for  sheriff.  The  office  was  being  vacated 
by  retiring  Sheriff  Bud  Hendrick. 

Local  political  strategists  and  other  ob- 
servers watched  with  interest  as  the  dark- 
horse  candidate  jumped  into  the  campaign,

Paul  Tara;  Lieut.  Gary  Smith,  chief  of  the 
sheriffs  detective  bureau;  Deputy  Lowell 
Rountree,  and  Glen  Spencer,  a  former  con- 
stable in  nearby  Watsonvilic. 

A  Bic;  Job  for  Douc; 

Doug  didn't  know  the  campaign  would 
be  as  rugged  as  it  turned  out  to  be. 

"That  was  the  biggest  strain  and  the 
most  uncertain  thing  I've  ever  been 
through  in  my  life,"  the  new  sheriff  re- 
calls. 

Doug's  complete  victory  at  the  polls  is 
now  histor)'.  A  big  job  with  big  responsi- 
bilities has  now  begun  for  a  hard-working 
young  man. 

Many  of  Doug's  friends  and  fellow- 
workers  in  the  count)'  feel  that  he  has  some 
good,  constructive  ideas  about  how  the 
sheriff's  office  should  be  run. 

Changes  Planned 

Consequently  he  can  count  on  their  sup- 
port as  he  puts  his  ideas  into  action. 

Some  changes  are  planned  immediately 
while  others  will  be  of  a  more  gradual 
nature. 

Included  in  the  "immediate  "  category 
is  a  full-scale  shuffle  in  the  office.  How- 
ever, this  is  not  as  severe  as  it  sounds. 

Doug  realizes  that,  as  a  public  office 
holder,  he  could  be  a  "new  broom"  and 
sweep  clean  if  he  so  chose.  However,  he 
doesn't  wish  to  run  the  department  in  that 
way. 

"I'd   be  stupid   to  walk   in  there  and

throw  my  weight  around,"  Doug  said  a 
few  days  after  election.  "I  don't  kno\y  the 
personnel  well  enough  and  I've  never 
worked  there  before.  " 

Centralized  Records 

Sheriff  James  will  move  the  Detective 
Bureau  downstairs  from  the  third  floor  of 
the  court  hou.sc  annex.  The  radio  room 
will  be  moved  to  the  front  office,  copies  of 
all  recent  reports  will  be  maintained,  and 
the  department's  entire  records  system  will 
been  centralized. 

Doug  feels  that  maintaining  proper  rec- 
ords would  serve  a  two-fold  purpose:  it 
would  help  keep  all  othcers  up  on  what's 
going  on,  and  it  would  also  aid  public  re- 
lations by  providing  quick  and  accurate  in- 
formation to  the  press  and  radio  people. 

Most  of  the  changes,  he  admits,  will  be 
patterned  after  the  set-up  of  the  police 
department  in  Santa  Cruz. 

More  Training 

For  one  thing,  the  sheriff  plans  a  much- 
needed  in-service  training  program.  New 
deputies  will  do  their  training  by  work- 
ing in  the  various  departments.  F.B.I, 
schools  and  several  other  training  pro- 
grams will  be  stressed  for  maximum  bene- 
fits, and  all-around  training  will  be  put  on 
a  continuing  basis. 

Uniforms  will  be  standardized  and 
worn  properly  and  inspections  will  be 
held.

work  and  they  will  do  that  when  they  do 
a  job  well,  "  Doug  said. 

He  also  explained  his  stand  on  chang- 
ing around  the  department  personnel:  "I 
want  to  look  at  everyone  in  action.  I  don't 
believe  in  taking  someone  else's  word  for 
something.  I  want  to  see  for  myself.  " 
More  Rank  for  Office 

Sheriff  James  also  wants  more  supervi- 
sory personnel  and  plans  to  push  hard  for 
more  rank  in  the  office.  He  wants  more 
men  with  the  rank  of  lieutenant  and  high- 
er. When  he  took  oflice,  the  new  sheriff 
had  only  Undersheriff  Paul  Tara  and  De- 
tective Lieut.  Gary  Smith  in  this  category. 

Doug  is  from  Pasadena  and  served  in 
the  Navy  in  World  War  II.  During  the 
war,  he  met  his  wife-to-be,  Betty,  who 
then  lived  in  Watsonville.  The  James' 
have  a  young  son. 

Played  Football 

After  the  war,  Doug  played  football  for 
St.  Mary's  College.  He  was  forced  to  drop 
out  after  about  a  year  because  of  financial 
problems  and  worked  at  a  number  of  jobs 
in  Watsonville.  He  also  played  football 
for  the  Santa  Cruz  Seahawks. 

The  Navy  got  him  again  during  the 
Korean  fighting.  After  his  discharge,  he 
joined  the  Santa  Cruz  police  force. 

Sheriff  James  is  past  president  of  the 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  and  is 
active  in  the  state  organization  of  officers 
working  on  juvenile  problems.

president. 


AN  IMPORTANT  and  hard-working 
group  of  San  Berriardino  citizens 
are  rounding  out  their  first  year  of  service 
to  their  profession. 

A  year  ago,  policemen  and  firemen  of 
this  Southern  California  city  formed  their 
own  professional  group,  the  San  Bernar- 
dino Fire  and  Police  Protective  League. 
Its  purpose  was  to  promote  closer  fraternal 
bonds  for  mutual  protection,  to  encourage 
and  improve  social  contact  between  mem- 
bers, and  to  promote  efficiency  within  the 
ranks  of  the  two  departments. 

The  league  has  been  a  success  from  the 
start. 

Organizational  Set-Up 

The  Board  of  Directors  is  composed  of 
10  members,  five  from  the  Police  Depart- 
ment and  five  from  the  Fire  Department. 
The  police  selections  for  board  member- 
ship are:  one  representative  from  the  rank 
of  Lieutenant  or  higher,  one  representative 


from  the  rank  of  Sergeant,  and  three  selec- 
tions to  represent  all  ranks  below  that  of 
Sergeant. 

The  fire-fighters  are  represented  by  one 
member  chosen  from  each  of  the  following 
ranks:  Chief  Officers,  Captains,  and  Engi- 
neers; plus  two  selected  from  the  rank 
below  that  of  Engineer. 

Committee  Work 

Each  board  member  is  also  chairman  of 
one  of  the  follovsing  committees:  Legal, 
Salary,  Publications,  Supplemental  Bene- 
fits, Liaison,  Civil  Service,  Office,  Publi- 
city, and  Pensions  and  Retirement.  Mem- 
bership, Historian,  and  Pensions  and  Sal- 
ary Committees  are  also  at  work. 

A  significant  success  of  the  young  league 
was  its  recent  work  on  a  plan  for  promo- 
tional examinations  with  the  Police  De- 
partment. The  plan  was  submitted  by  the 
Civil  Service  Committee  to  the  Civil  Serv-

Inquiries  Welcomed 

Presently,  the  Salary  Committee  is  work- 
ing with  the  Administrative  Office  to  ar- 
rive at  a  basic  salary  formula.  The  formula 
will  include  all  departmental  salary  bene- 
fits which  were  voted  under  a  recent 
amendment  to  the  San  Bernardino  City 
Charter.  The  league  will  publish  the  result 
of  the  study. 

The  salary  formula  study  and  all  other 
studies  will  be  added  to  the  league's  in- 
formation library.  Gradually,  the  group 
hopes  to  build  up  an  extensive  library  on 
factual  material,  opinions,  sur\'eys,  and  so 
on. 

A  spokesman  stated  that  the  league  will 
be  glad  to  share  any  information  with  any 
police  or  fire  department.  Inquiries  should 
be  made  in  writing  to  P.  O.  Box  758,  San

The  Ward  family  of  fine  policemen 


The  Ward  Family  anil  the  San  Bernardino  Police  Department  have  a  lot  in  common,  mainly 
because  four  Ward  men  and  their  sister  work  for  the  department.  From  left:  Fred  E.,  Dallas  L., 
A.  L.,  and  Richard  O.  Sarah  has  joined  the  Department  of  Records  and  Identification  since  the 
above  photo  was  taken. 


When  the  Ward  brothers  and  their 
sister,  all  of  San  Bernardino,  get  together 
and  talk  shop,  the  subject  just  naturally 
turns  to  police  work. 

But  it's  understandable  in  view  of  the 
fact  that  the  San  Bernardino  Police  De- 
partment now  h,is  four  Ward  brothers  and 
their  sister,  Sarah,  serving  on  it.  In  fact, 
the  Ward  family  makes  up  an  impressive 
percentage  of  the  force. 

Fred  has  seniority  with  10  years  service. 
He  operates  a  three-wheeler  in  controling 
meters  and  zoned  parking  areas.  Dallas 
has  five  years  on  the  force  and  Richard  has 
seven  years;  both  men  are  in  Traffic.  A.  L. 
is  in  the  Patrol  Division  and  has  four  years 
service. 

Sarah  is  the  most  recent  addition  to  the 
Ward  family  tradition  of  police  service.

THE  BIG,  black,  rickety  old  Buick  roared 
down  the  winding  mountain  road. 
The  driver  fought  to  keep  the  enormous 
car  on  the  road.  Tires  squealed.  Smoke 
belched  from  the  exhaust. 

The  driver  was  Deputy  Constable  Eu- 
gene Stock,  of  Dinuba,  California,  and  the 
excited,  wide-eyed  little  girl  sitting  next  to 
him  was  his  five-year-old  granddaughter 
Tobie. 

Memories  of  this  wild  ride  (they  were 
chasing  a  bootlegger)  and  memories  of 
many  more  exciting  days  with  her  grand- 
father never  left  the  youngster.  Today  she 
is  Tobie  Bybee,  only  policewoman  on  the 
force  at  Huron,  Fresno  County,  California. 

From  Tulare  County 

"I  grew  up  in  Sultana,  a  nice  little  town 
in  Tulare  County,  where  I  lived  with  my 
grandparents,"  the  pleasant- voiced  Mrs. 
Bybee  says.  "Grandmother  was  ill  most 
of  the  time,  so  I  always  went  out  every 
day  with  Granddad.  He  worked  out  of 
nearby  Dinuba  and  I  got  to  know  all  the 
folks  Granddad  worked  with. 

"Being  with  him  was  plenty  exciting, 
so  I  guess  I  just  always  wanted  to  go  into 
police  work,"  Tobie  recalls. 

"Besides,  so  many  of  the  men  among 
my  relatives  were  in  law  enforcement.  My 
other  Granddad  and  a  cousin  were  both 
border  patrolmen,  another  cousin  was  on 
the  police  force  in  New  York  City,  two 
uncles  were  Texas  Rangers,  and  a  great- 
uncle  was  Court  Smith,  a  former  warden 
at  San  Quentin." 

Extensive  Reading 

Tobie  says  that  when  she  was  a  teen- 
ager, she  practically  lived  in  the  local  li- 
brary. She  read  everything  they  had  on 
police  methods  and  tactics.  In  high  school 
she  took  enough  credits  to  qualify  for  civil 
service. 

After  high  school,  she  attended  Coa- 
linga  Junior  College  for  one  year. 

"But  my  heart  was  still  in  police  work, 
so  I  then  graduated  from  a  correspondence 
course  offered  by  the  Institute  of  Applied

Science.  They  teach  scientific  criminal 
identification  and  investigation." 

Family  Doesn't  Interfere 
Tobie  is  a  wife  and  a  mother,  but  this 
doesn't  keep  her  from  being  on  2-1-hour 
call  every  day  for  police  work  or  for  am- 
bulance and  juvenile  calls.  The  routine 
suits  her  fine,  she  says,  especially  since  her 
family  learned  a  long  time  ago  to  adjust 
themselves  to  her  irregular  hours. 

Tobie  works  mostly  with  Deputy  Con- 
stable Charles  Smith  when  going  out  on 
calls.  When  on  duty,  Tobie  wears  a  smart 
uniform.  She  points  out  that  it  isn't  com- 
pulsory, but  that  she  gets  much  more  co- 
operation out  of  people  they  pick  up  if 
she's  in  uniform. 

Feels  Sorry  for  Kids 

The  friendly  policewoman  says  that  she 
has  seen  plenty  since  she  joined  the  Huron 
Police  Department  on  a  part-time  basis  in 
1955.  Only  a  few  things  upset  her  the,se 
days,  she  says. 

According  to  Tobie,  she  is  really  sad-

Tobie  Bybee  is  Huron's  only  policewoman.  Re-

dened  at  seeing  little  children  being  neg- 
lected by  their  wayward  parents.  She  and 
Constable  Smith  (Smitty)  have  answered 
numerous  calls  where  parents  have  gone 
out,  leaving  their  babies  at  home  with  little 
or  no  food  and  no  heat  in  the  house. 

Tobie  remembers  a  sordid  incident  that 
happened  a  couple  of  years  ago.  She  and 
Smitty  had  just  arrested  a  man  and  his 
wife.  Their  three  little  boys  were  with 
them  and  the  youngest  was  just  three 
months  old.  The  children  were  tired  and 
dirty  and  hadn't  eaten  all  day.  The  baby's 
bottle  wiis  half  full  of  sour  milk. 

"I  sure  felt  sorry  for  those  poor  little 
kids,  "  Tobie  said.  "When  we  got  the  fam- 
ily to  the  station  house  and  out  of  the  car, 
the  woman  stumbled  and  would  have 
fallen  on  the  baby  if  I  hadn't  caught  her." 

Rugged  Camp  Life 
Another  thing  that  gets  her,  she  says,  is 
the  rugged  life  in  the  nearby  labor  camps.

"Some  of  the  people  live  there  in  unbe- 
lievable tilth  and  squalor.  The  cabins  are 
not  built  to  keep  out  severe  weather  and 
this  is  always  a  hardship,  especially  on  the 
little  children." 

Tobie  says  that  she  and  Smitty  have  to 
make  quite  a  few  trips  out  to  these  camps 
for  all  sorts  of  investigations,  arrests,  and 
for  settling  differences  between  man  and 
wife. 

"My  first  trip  out  to  one  of  the  camps 
almost  made  me  sick.  Smitty  and  I  had 
gone  out  to  arrest  a  juvenile  girl.  When 
we  walked  into  her  cabin,  the  stench  and 
filth  was  almost  too  much  for  us. 

"There  were  mounds  of  soiled  and 
smelly  clothes  all  around.  There  wers  sev- 
eral days  of  dirty  dishes  and  rotting"  gar- 
bage on  the  table.  Dirty  blankets  and  a 
musty,  discolored  mattress  was  the  chil- 
dren's bed.  A  small  tin  stove  in  the  mid- 
dle of  the  room  was  used  for  cooking  and 
heating,  but  believe  you  me,  it  didn't  do 
much  of  either.  And  I  was  really  shocked 
later  to  find  that  there  are  many  such 
places  like  these  in  the  labor  camps." 

A  Case  She'll  Always  Remember 

Tobie  is  convinced  that  her  baptism  of 
fire  came  last  January  6.  It  is  still  a  day  of 
great  horror  for  her  ...  a  day  she'll  never 
forget. 

She  and  Smitty  were  answering  what 
they  figured  was  just  another  routine 
drunk  call.  It  was  about  11:30  p.m.  Upon 
their  arrival,  they  discovered  it  wasn't  a 
drunk  at  all  beside  the  road.  It  was  a  dead 
man.  Already  at  the  scene  were  Highway 
Patrolman  Bill  Gerin  and  Deputy  Sheriff 
Fred  Chaffin  of  Kings  County. 

Policewoman  Tobie  walked  closer,  took 
a  look,  and  gasped:  "Oh,  my  God !  It's  my 
nephew,  Bobby!" 

"They  all  looked  at  me,  expecting  me 
to  start  the  hysterics,  I  guess.  Well,  I 
did:i't  ...  I  felt  more  like  hiding  some- 
where away  from  all  the  officers  so  that  I 
could  release  a  sickening  feeling  of  hor- 
ror inside  of  me." 

Tobie  Helped  on  Case 
The  mortician,  Mr.  "Vors,  came  from 
Coalinga.  He  rolled  the  body  over.  They 
found  bullet  holes  behind  the  left  ear. 
Tobie  recalls  how  she  really  wanted  to 
scream  then,  but  fought  it  off.  She  sudden- 
ly realized  that  Bobby  had  been  murdered, 
shot  down  at  the  side  of  the  road. 

The  group  of  officers  waited  in  almost 
freezing  weather  for  the  deputies  to  come 
out  from  Fresno.  Deputy  Coroner  Dicker- 
son,  B&I  Sergeants  John  Belton  and  Rob- 
ert Smith,  Detective  Sergeants  Walter  Pin- 
ion and  Henry  Hallam  arrived  and  went 
to  work.  They  took  pictures,  searched  for 
clues,  and  got  helpful  information  from 
Tobie.  She  informed  them  that  the  boy's

name  was  Robert  Burr  Miller,  that  he  had 
been  on  his  way  to  visit  her,  and  that  he 
had  phoned  about  6  p.m.,  saying  that  he 
would  be  at  Tobie's  house  before  mid- 
night. 

"Smitty,  Sergeant  Pinion,  Sergeant  Hal- 
lam  and  I  went  to  Corcoran  to  check  out 
some  friends  of  my  dead  nephew,"  she 
said.  "They  all  were  cleared  at  once.  At 
daylight,  we  all  returned  to  the  murder 
spot.  Detective  Sergeant  Duane  Lautcrs 
and  Detective  Sergeant  Melvin  Hansen 
were  now  there,  too." 

Proves  Her  Strength 

A  woman  without  Tobie's  personal 
strength  and  ability  to  keep  calm  might 
surely  have  become  rattled  and  gone  into 
hysterics.  Tobie  stayed  and  helped  the  of- 
ticers  until  3  that  afternoon,  when  they  in- 
sisted she  go  home  and  get  .some  sleep. 

Tobie  says  she'll  continue  her  chosen 
career  in  spite  of  the  horror  and  shock  she 
felt  when  she  saw  the  corpse  of  her  loved 
one. 

"I  really  admire  the  officers  who  were 
a  part  of  it,"  Tobie  says  proudly.  "It  was 
wonderful  to  see  them  work  so  swiftly 
and  intelligently  in  bringing  the  boy's 
killer  to  justice.  By  5  that  afternoon  they 
had  their  best  suspect,  and  by  9  that  night 
he  had  confessed.  " 

An  Exciting  Career 
"Working  in  law  enforcement  is  still 
the  most  exciting  career  in  the  world.  I'm 
still  as  convinced  as  I  was  when  I  used  to 
ride  around  Tulare  County  with  Grand- 
dad. 

"You  never  know  what's  going  to  hap- 
pen next,  "  Tobie  says.  "Even  chasing  that 
bootlegger  through  the  mountains  in 
Granddad's  big  car  didn't  turn  out  like 
Granddad  expected.  We  were  almost  up 
with  him  when  an  enormous  touring  car 
whipped  around  the  curve  and  almost  hit 
us.  Naturally,  Granddad  swerved  and  we 
went  bumping  along  on  some  rocks  and 
then  got  stuck  in  some  deep  sand. 

"The  bootlegger.'  Oh,  he  got  away  and 
at  the  time,  I  didn't  care  one  way  or  an- 
other. After  all,  I  was  just  five  years  old 
and  was  having  the  time  of  my  life."

Police  protest 
exam  changes 

SAN  FRANCISCO,  CAL.— The  City 
by  the  Golden  Gate  has  toughened  up  its 
police  promotional  examinations,  a  move 
vigorously  protested  by  members  of  the 
San  Francisco  Police  Officers  Association. 

The  protest  came  when  Civil  Service 
officials  stopped  giving  to  applicants  (for 
the  post  of  captain  and  lieutenant)  an  ad- 
vance list  of  books  on  which  questions 
would  be  based. 

Peter  Gardner,  Central  station  officer 
and  secretary  of  the  association,  said  a 
delegation  of  a  lieutenant,  a  sergeant,  and 
a  patrolman  has  discussed  the  change  with 
Chief  Thomas  Cahill. 

Civil  Service  explained  that  the  list  of 
books  was  discontinued  partly  because  of 
protests  from  employes  in  other  city  de- 
partments. They  complained  that  they 
were  not  given  such  a  list  prior  to  their 
examinations. 

A  spokesman  for  the  Civil  Service  add- 
ed that  most  of  the  concept  of  the  tests 
had  been  changed.  Hereafter,  emphasis 
will  not  be  on  book  material  as  such,  but 
on  an  applicant's  knowledege  of  police 
work,  administration,  and  supervision. 

Thus,  he  said,  discontinuing  the  list  of 
books  will  stop  many  of  the  applicants 
from  "cramming"  just  before  the  exam- 
inations. 

A  spokesman  for  the  San  Francisco  Po- 
lice Officers  Association  stated  that  the 
members  are  bitterly  opposed  to  this  meas- 
ure. 

"Members  feel  that  now  they  just  won't 
know  what  the  scope  of  the  examinations 
will  be,"  he  said.

SAN  l'RAN(  IS(,0,  (,AL.-  A  i^n)up 
of  3(i  iiKfuhcrs  ol'  the  San  l-'raiu isto  Poliic 
Department  have  been  honored  for  risking 
their  Hves  in  January's  hazardous  searth 
for  the  body  of  Bill  Soltero.  Soltero,  16, 
was  buried  in  a  massive  landslide  near 
China  Beach.

garet Valentine,  IS. 

The  group  gathered  in  Chief  Ciahill's 
office,  then  heard  a  brief  word  of  praise 
from  Police  Commission  President 
Thomas  J.  Mellon. 

Police  Commissioners  Paul  A.  Bissinger 
and  Harold  McKinnon  also  congratulated 
the  group  and  shook  hands  with  each  of 
the  men. 

The  36  men  included  a  Richmond  Sta- 
tion group  who  were  presented  to  the  Po- 
lice Commission  by  Captain  Walter  Ames. 

Honored  at  the  ceremonies  were: 

Lieutenants  Robert  VCintcr,  Donald  Scott,  and 
Hazclton  French;  Sergeants  Cecil  Hickman,

A  plea  to   10,000  killers: 

(Continued  from  page  i) 

Chief  Cahill  pointed  out  that  these  sta- 
tistics do  not  include  accidents  which  oc- 
curred on  the  Bay  Bridge,  Golden  Gate 
Bridge,  or  in  military  reservations  within 
the  City  and  County  of  San  Francisco. 

Said  Chief  Cahill:  "It  doesn't  take  an 
expert  to  predict  that  unless  there  is  an 
improvement  in  our  traffic  manners,  we 
may  see  the  same  gruesome  figures  appear 
in  our  statistical  report  at  the  end  of  1959. 
These  mute  figures  do  not  tell  us  the  story 
behind  them — the  suffering  and  maiming 
of  the  victims — the  families  disrupted  and 
the  many  persons  affected  by  eack  and 
every  death — the  cost  in  time  and  money 
of  each  so-called  "accident." 

Three  C's  of  Safety 

"These  are  not,  for  the  most  part,  acci- 
dents. They  are  occurrences  caused  by  a 
human  failing  known  as  'carelessness'  sea- 
soned with  a  lack  of  courtesy." 

The  Chief  pleaded  that  everyone  resolve 
now  that  they  will  practice  the  three  C's — 
Caution,  Courtesy,  and  Common-sense  and 
not  be  a  statistic  at  the  end  of  the  year. 

On  the  State  level.  Commissioner  Cald- 
well noted  that  2177  of  victims  were 
killed  on  rural  highways  and  1333  on  city 
streets.  Of  the  persons  injured,  83,515 
were  hurt  within  incorporated  areas  and 
52,050  outside  of  cities. 


Contributing  Factors 

Commissioner  Caldwell  said  that  more 
than  90  per  cent  of  the  accidents  investi- 
gated by  the  highway  patrol  were  caused 
by  a  traffic  law  violation. 

"Excessive  and  unsafe  speed  were  ma- 
jor contributing  factors  in  36.4  per  cent

of  these  accidents,  "  he  declared.  "Driving 
too  fast  for  the  conditions  caused  more  ac- 
cidents than  the  next  four  violations  com- 
bined. Right-ofway  violations  were  second 
highest,  with  14.0  per  cent;  followed  by 
improper  turning,  9.0  per  cent;  driving 
on  the  wrong  side  of  the  road,  7.7  per 
cent;  and  following  too  closely,  4.8  per 
cent." 

A  Million  Citations 

The  highway  patrol  issued  more  than 
one  million  citations  during  1958,  an  in- 
creases of  14.7  per  cent  over  the  previous 
year.  The  1,042,786  citations  written  in- 
cluded 320,376  speed  violations. 

Caldwell  also  noted  that  drunk  driving 
arrests  by  highway  patrolmen  were  up  by 
1.5  per  cent  to  a  total  of  13,103  for  the 
year.  Accidents  in  which  one  or  more 
drivers  had  been  drinking  declined  slight- 
ly, from  20,186  to  19,456. 

According  to  the  National  Safety  Coun- 
cil, the  great  bulk  of  our  nation's  32,000 
fatalities  and  348,000  injuries  on  the  road 
each  year  are  avoidable. 

Don't  Be  A  Killer 

What  can  you  do  to  avoid  being  the  one 
driver  in  382  who'll  be  involved  in  an  ac- 
cident this  year.'  Comments  and  sugges- 
tions were  gleaned  from  leading  insurance 
companies,  National  Safety  Council, 
American  Automobile  Association,  and 
safety  experts  at  prominent  tire  and  pe- 
troleum companies.  Here's  their  eight- 
point  program  to  keep  you  out  of  the 
killer  category. 

•  Be  sure  you're  physically  fit  to 
drive.  If  you  don't  feel  well,  don't  get  be- 
hind the  wheel.  A  simple  headache,  for 
example,  can  upset  your  judgment,  inter- 
fere with  "road-attention."  If  you  ought 
to  wear  glasses,  wear  them — and  be  sure 
they  meet  your  current  needs.  Even  if  you 
don't  require  them,  you  should  visit  an 
optometrist  once  a  year — just  to  play  safe. 
So  simple  an  ailment  as  an  upset  stomach 
can  make  you  take  chances  that  you  would

ordinarily  avoid.  If  you  are  suddenly  taken 
ill  while  driving,  pull  over  to  the  side  of 
the  road — or  a  drive-in — until  you  feel 
better.  A  lup  of  loffee  and  a  few  minutes 
of  relaxation  may  snap  you  out  of  it. 

•  Be  prepared  mentally  to  drive. 
This  means:  shrug  off  worries  before  you 
release  the  brake;  consciously  avoid  taking 
out  your  aggressions  on  the  road;  recog- 
nize the  fact  that  you  arc  driving  a  poten- 
tially lethal  weapon;  and  stay  alert — for 
children  crossing  streets,  unexpected  side- 
road  traffic,  speedsters,  what-have-you. 

•  Know  your  car.  Automobiles,  like 
people,  have  their  peculiarities.  And  as  a 
car  becomes  older,  these  individual  traits 
are  exaggerated.  Whether  it's  your  own, 
a  friend's  or  a  rented  vehicle,  be  certuiii 
you  know  such  vital  facts  as:  the  size  of 
its  turning  circle,  where  its  "blind  spots" 
are,  just  how  quickly  it  can  accelerate — 
and  decelerate — in  an  emergency,  how 
much  pressure  on  the  brake  it  takes  to  halt 
it.  Some  preliminar)-  tests  before  a  long 
trip  could  save  your  life. 

•  Be  sure  your  car  is  in  top  condition. 
This  means  checking  the  brakes,  battery, 
fan  belt,  windshield  wipers,  wheel  align- 
ment, lights,  horn  and  rear  vision  mirror. 
Use  well-mated  tires  with  good  tread.  If 
you  need  new  tires,  those  with  rayon  tire 
cord  are  your  best  buy.  Rayon  is  the  only 
cord  that  grows  stronger  as  tire  heat  builds 
up.  Be  sure  tire  pressure  is  up  to  snuff. 
Find  yourself  a  reliable  mechanic  and  stick 
with  him — hell  get  to  know  your  car  in 
the  same  way  that  a  physician  gets  to  know 
his  patients. 

•  Learn  the  fundamentals  of  turn- 
pike or  freeway  driving.  Our  highways 
are  being  built  so  well  that  they  have  be- 
gun to  outpace  man's  ability  to  adapt  to 
new  circumstances.  Some  facts  to  bear  in 
mind:  don' I  be  lulled  by  the  broad, 
smooth  road  ahead — you  can  still  smash 
into  the  rear  of  a  slower-moving  truck  or 
be  sideswiped  by  some  driver  out  to  pass 
you.  Beware  of  "highway  hypnosis  " — that 
deadly  mesmerism  that  can  sneak  up  on

anyone  through  the  sheer  monotony  of 
straight,  uninterrupted  road.  To  avoid  it, 
glance  occasionally-  and  quickly — to  the 
side,  move  from  lane  to  lane  and  take  fre- 
quent breaks — every  SO  or  100  miles, 

•  Master  the  fundamentals  of  night 
driving.  If  you  drive  at  night  frequently, 
buy  a  good  pair  of  special  night  driving 
glasses — they  reduce  the  glare  of  oncom- 
ing headlights.  Never  wear  sun  glasses-- 
they  can  substantially  reduce  your  judg- 
ment alter  sundown.  If  you  aren't  wearing 
night  glasses,  the  best  way  to  face  lights  is 
to  look  straight  ahead.  Contrary  to  general 
belief,  it  is  un.uife  to  look  to  the  right,  for 
drivers  tend  to  steer  in  the  direction  they 
are  looking.  Finally,  most  experts  endorse 
the  practice  of  sticking  "glowing  tape  "  on 
the  rear  bumpers  of  cars — it's  a  tip  to 
other  drivers  who  may  pass  your  parked 
car  at  night. 

•  Learn  to  handle  your  car  in  bad 
weather.  The  basic  rule  for  riding  out  a 
skid  is  to  steer  in  the  direction  of  the  skid 
and  keep  off  the  brake.  You  should  use 
chains  on  snow  or — if  you  live  in  the 
northern  states — invest  in  snow  tires.  For 
safety's  sake,  keep  a  couple  of  bags  of  sand 
in  your  trunk  and  an  ice-scraper  in  your 
glove  compartment. 

•  Don't  speed.  Don't  speed,  don't 
speed,  don't  speed.

How's  your  law  enforcement  IQ? 

Herein  is  contained  another  series  of  questions  and  answers  pertinent  to  police  training  and  helpful  in  daily  police  routine 
and  promotional  examinations.  These  questions  and  answers  are  supplied  to  the  Journal  as  a  service  to  law  enforcement

Banks  fighting  robberies 
with  new  hidden  camera 


BANKIRS  SOON  WILL  BL  capturing 
bank  robbers  by  first  capturing  them 
on  him. 

At  least,  that  was  the  general  idea  lon- 
veyed  recently  to  a  group  of  prominent 
bank  officials,  who  ;isked  that  their  names 
and  the  names  of  their  banks  not  be  used. 

The  group  watched  the  first  public  dem- 
onstration of  a  surveillance  system  using 
a  unique  camera  to  film  the  holdups. 

The  system,  called  "Photoguard,"  is 
receiving  wide  endorsement  because  it  is 
perhaps  a  bank's  only  weapon  in  combat- 
ing the  recent  wave  of  "note-carrying" 
stickups. 

Cameras  Coast-to-Coast 

The  manufacturer  demonstrated  the  sys- 
tem in  the  office  of  one  of  our  largest 
banks.  So  successful  was  the  filming  that 
the  firm  immediately  made  plans  to  also 
install  the  cameras  in  its  numerous  branch 
offices. 

The  manufacturer,  in  turn,  is  so  pleased 
with  the  system's  performance  that  the 
company  has  announced  plans  to  market 
Photoguard  nationally. 

An  officer  of  the  bank  told  newsmen: 
"Our  purpc«e  is  to  contribute  our  best  ef- 
forts, in  cooperation  with  crime  prevention 
and  law  enforcement  agencies,  towards  the 
forestalling  of  bank  robberies.  We  believe 
that  the  Photoguard  equipment  should 
prove  effective  in  deterring  attempts  at 
such  serious  crimes." 


Hidden  Lens 

Heart  of  the  system  is  an  electrically 
driven,  special  instrumentation  camera 
connected  to  electronic  actuating  compon- 
ents. Cameras  may  be  operated  by  remote 
control  from  any  spot  in  the  bank. 

A  spokesman  for  the  manufacturer  says 
that  the  cameras  are  sound-prool,  tamper- 
proof,  and  bullet-proof.  The  only  exposed 
part,  he  said,  is  a  one-inch  lens  which  can 
be  concealed  by  a  molding,  electric  fan,  or 
picture  frame. 

If  a  bank  so  desires,  the  camera  system 
can  be  tied  in  with  existing  alarms.  Also, 
it  can  be  tested  without  affecting  the  alarm 
just  as  the  alarm  may  be  tested  without 
aflfecting  the  camera. 

It  all  began  about  four  years  ago  in 
Cleveland,  Ohio,  then  averaging  three 
holdups  per  month.  Photoguard  was  ori- 
ginally built  at  that  time  to  specifications 
worked  out  jointly  by  the  Federal  Bureau 
of  Investigation  and  the  Cleveland  Police. 

Bandits  Soon  Captured 

A  pilot  model  was  first  installed  in  a 
savings  and  loan  office  in  Cleveland  in 
April,  l';")?.  The  office  was  hit  by  a  hold- 
up the  following  day. 

Police  viewed  the  film  within  an  hour 
of  the  holdup  and  copies  were  sent  to  all 
local  TV  stations.  The  bandits  were  cap- 
tured 24  hours  after  the  holdup. 
(ConlDiued  nil  next  pj^e) 


Recent  wave  of  "do-it-yourself  "  bank  robberies  (a  note  is  used  instead  of  a  weapon)  is  bringing 
action  from  banking  houses.  Many  now  use  newly-developed  hidden  camera  to  record  vital  in- 
formation on  culprit.  Film  usually  is  shown  overTN'  and  has  brought  about  many  swift  captures. 
Above,  bank  official  (right)  and  camera's  manufacturer  explain  the  device  to  bank  teller.  For 
obvious  reasons,  banks  using  hidden  camera  requested  that  their  names  not  be  used.

Pho+oguard  system 

Handy  for  Tellers 

Another  feature  of  the  system  is  a  "sus- 
picion button."  This  is  for  use  by  tellers 
who,  for  any  reason,  may  feel  uneasy  about 
anyone  in  the  bank.  Just  to  be  on  the  safe 
side,  the  teller  can  record  a  few  feet  of 
film  on  that  person. 

It  was  also  pointed  out  that  the  camera 
is  still  very  helpful  should  the  robber  be 
masked  or  in  disguise.  The  film  is  a  per- 
manent and  accurate  picture  of  the  bandit's 
actions  and  physical  characteristics.  A 
criminal  with  a  peculiar  gait,  limp,  or 
nervous  characteristic  stands  virtually  no 
chance  of  escaping  identification. 

Equally  important,  too,  is  the  fact  that 
the  film  eliminates  many  suspects  and  saves 
police  from  running  down  blind  leads.

Hoffman  named 
Los  Banos  chief 

LOS  BANOS,  CAL.-  A  vftcran  Wat- 
sonville  policeman,  whose  ancestors  are 
prominent  in  old  California  history,  is  the 
new  police  chief  for  Los  Banos. 

Robert  Hoffman,  41,  served  with  the 
Watsonville  PoJiie  Department  for  1 1 
years.  During  the  past  three,  he  has  heen 
the  lieutenant  in  charge  of  personnel  for 
the  30-man  department. 

As  he  accepted  the  new  post.  Chief 
Hoffman  issued  the  following  statement: 
"I  have  always  liked  Los  Banos  and  its 
people  and  sincerely  welcome  this  oppor- 
tunity to  become  a  part  of  the  community. 
I  feel  the  position  affords  an  excellent  op- 
portunity for  advancement  and  both  Mrs. 
Hoffman  and  myself  look  forward  to  es- 
tablishing our  home  in  this  community." 

Hoffman's  grandmother  was  the  great- 
granddaughter  of  General  Mariano 
Guadalupe  Vallejo  (1808-1890),  one- 
time Mexican  military  governor  of  the 
California  Territory  and  the  man  for 
whom  the  town  of  Vallejo,  in  Central 
California,  w;is  named.  Hoffman  said  that 
the  area  where  Watsonville  now  stands 
was  in  their  family  for  many  years.  It  was 
given  to  his  great-grandmother  as  a  wed- 
ding present. 


Stockton  changes  colors 

STOCKTON,  CAL.  —  The  traditional 
black  and  white  has  given  way  to  red  and 
white  as  the  color  scheme  of  police  ve- 
hicles in  Stockton. 

Police  Chief  Jack  O'Keefe  said  that  the 
distinctive  new  colors  will  serve  to  differ- 
entiate Stockton  police  cars  from  those 
used  by  the  California  Highway  Patrol  and 
by  the  Sheriffs  Office. 

A  recent  delivery  of  14  new  cars  made 
the  major  part  of  the  fleet  red  and  white. 
Other  units  will  be  changed  when  they  are 
replaced.

Burglary  is  big  business 

Your  firm  will  be  a  burglar's  delight 
unless  you  observe  a  jew  simple  precautions 


BURGLARY  IS  .ONE  business  that  con- 
tinues to  set"  new  records  for  profits. 

According  to  F.B.I.  Chief  J.  Edgar 
Hoover,  thieves  will  set  another  new  rec- 
ord this  year.  They  operate  on  a  scale  that 
makes  burglary  big  business. 

F.B.I,  crime  reports  show  that  the  cur- 
rent burglary  rate  exceeds  one  crime  every 
minute.  The  amount  of  money  and  proper- 
ty taken  by  thieves  at  this  burglary-a-min- 
ute  clip  is  a  staggering  $101,000,000  per 
year.  Since  more  cash  and  valuables  are 
available  to  burglars  in  commercial  estab- 
lishments than  in  homes,  these  places  na- 
turally account  for  a  large  proportion  of 
the  burglaries  committed. 

A  research  study  by  a  leading  maker  of 
locks  for  home  and  industry,  reveals  that 
the  burglar's  greatest  ally  too  often  is  the 
person  he  victimizes. 

A  Few  Do's  &  Don'ts 

Using  data  provided  by  police  officials, 
insurance  underwriters  and  other  experts 
on  criminology,  the  firm  has  come  up  with 
a  list  of  do's  and  don'ts  for  owners  of 
stores  and  other  places  of  business. 

Here  are  some  mistakes  made  by  pro- 
prietors of  stores,  warehouses,  offices  and 
other  commercial  establishments  which 
make  things  easy  for  the  burglars: 

•  Leaving  front  or  rear  door  unlocked. 

•  Failing  to  provide  adequate  safe- 
guards for  windows. 

•  Leaving  interior  and/or  exterior  of 
store  unlighted. 

•  Failing  to  employ  secure  locking  de- 
vices on  doors. 

•  Locating  safes  or  vaults  in  wrong 
areas. 

•  Using  cash  register  improperly. 

•  Paying  less  than  adequate  attention 
to  possible  places  of  entry  such  as  cellar 
doors,  skylights,  sewers,  sidewalk  open- 
ings, roof  doors,  transoms  and  fire  es- 
capes. 

•  Failing  to  install  good  burglar  alarms 
and  to  periodically  test  their  efficiency. 

•  Neglecting  to  employ  capable  watch- 
men. 

•  Forgetting  to  list  serial  numbers  of 
all  valuable  merchandise. 

•  Failing  to  change  a  lock  after  its  key 
is  lost. 

Remember,  the  harder  you  make  it  for 
the  burglar  to  get  in,  the  less  chance  there 


is  that  he'll  attempt  to  enter  your  place  of 
business.  It  is  to  his  advantage  to  burglar- 
ize stores  and  other  places  of  business  with 
inadequate  security. 

Here  is  what  you  can  do  to  make  your 
place  of  business  unattractive  to  criminals: 

1.  Always  remember  to  lock  all  doors 
securely  when  leaving  your  place  of  busi- 
ness. This  is  an  elementary  point  but  one 
which  is  often  forgotten  by  careless  busi- 
nessmen. 

2.  Be  certain  to  protect  all  windows 
with  window  locks  which  cannot  be  open- 
ed without  the  correct  key  even  if  the  glass 
is  broken.  Ground  floor  windows  that 
open  on  dark  streets  or  alleyways  should 
also  be  protected  with  heavy  bars  or 
grilles.  These  must  be  well-anchored  and 
must  be  so  constructed  that  they  cannot  be 
pried  loose  or  bent  out  of  shape. 

3.  Always  have  the  interior  of  your 
store  partially  lighted  at  night.  Thieves 
fear  well-lit  interiors  because  their  activi- 
ties can  be  seen  from  the  street.  All  out- 
side entrances  should  also  be  well  lit,  espe- 
cially those  at  the  rear  or  sides  of  your 
place  of  business. 

4.  Use  good  grade  pin-tumbler  cylinder 
locks  on  all  exterior  doors.  Invented  in 
1857,  the  pin-tumbler  cylinder  lock  is  the 
most  secure  key-operated  locking  device 
ever  developed.  It  is  pick-resistant  and  will 
delay  even  the  most  highly-skilled  burglar, 
a  circumstance  that  he  wants  to  avoid.  On 
doors  with  large  panes  of  glass,  double 
cylinder  locks  should  be  used  that  cannot 
be  unlocked  from  either  the  outside  or  the 
inside  without  the  proper  key.  All  exterior 
locks  should  have  deadlocking  mechanisms 
that  prevent  the  latch  from  being  snapped 
back  by  burglars  using  celluloid  strips. 
Most  secure  is  a  jimmy-proof  Yale  197 
deadlock  with  hardened  steel  vertical  bolt, 
which  interlocks  with  the  door  jamb  and 
cannot  be  pried  open. 

Protect  Your  Safe 
■5.  Be  certain  that  your  safe  is  securely 
locked  by  spinning  the  dial  at  least  twice 
after  closing  it.  Your  safe  should  be  easily 
visible  through  the  front  window  of  your 
store.  A  light  above  the  safe  is  a  good 
idea.  If  the  safe  is  a  light  model,  it  should 
be  securely  bolted  to  the  floor.  A  large 
bolt  enclosed  by  a  steel  pipe  attaching  the 
safe  to  the  floor  is  recommended  to  pre- 
vent burglars  from  removing  the  safe.  Al- 
ways change  the  factory  combination  when 


MARCH,  1959 


29 


\ou  buy  a  safe  and  never  use  your  birth 
iir  anniversary  date  or  that  of  a  loved  one 
.IS  the  combination  of  these  are  easy  for 
inniinals  to  discover.  Never  open  your 
safe  in  the  presence  of  a  stranger  and  keep 
the  combination  to  yourself. 

6.  Your  cash  register  should  always  be 
emptied  and  the  drawer  left  open  at  night. 
If  this  is  not  done,  a  burglar  might  wreck 
this  valuable  eciuipmcnt  in  his  effort  to 
open  the  drawer.  During  the  daytime. 
however,  always  keep  your  drawer  locked 
if  you  must  momentarily  leave  the  cash 
register  unattended.  A  favorite  trick  of 
burglars  is  to  divert  the  owner  of  small 
shops  by  a  phone  call  or  false  message  and 
to  rifle  the  register  while  it  is  unattended. 
Always  be  suspicious  of  phone  calls  which 
are  unnecessarily  lengthy. 


Puc  safe  in  well-lighted  .irca  visible  from  front 
window.  Darkness  helps  burglar. 

Protect  All  Entrances 

7.  Burglars  will  attempt  to  break  into 
a  store  through  any  possible  entrance. 
Therefore,  even  though  doors  and  win- 
dows are  securely  locked,  you  must  pay 
equal  attention  to  roof  doors,  skylights, 
basement  doors,  etc.  One  weak  point  is 
all  that  the  burglar  needs,  so  every  means 
of  entr)'  must  be  equally  well  protected. 
Pin-tumbler  cylinder  padlocks  are  a  good 
means  of  protection  for  these  doors. 

8.  A  good  burglar  alarm,  periodically 
checked  to  keep  its  efficiency  high,  is  a 
strong  deterrent  to  thieves.  Used  in  con- 
junction with  other  measures  mentioned

9.  An  alert  night  walihnian  provides 
efficient  proteitioii  against  burglars.  Care- 
ful investigation  of  a  watchman  is  neces- 
sary bct'ore  hiring  him,  as  shady  char.icters 
often  seek  these  jobs  as  the  "inside  man"

can  he  o(  u.se  to  you. 

U).  It  you  lose  a  key,  you  should  change 
the  lock  which  corresponds  to  it  or  have 
a  reliable  IcKksmith  reset  the  lock  to  a  new 
key.  Locks  should  also  be  changed  or  re- 
set when  you  move  into  an  office,  store, 
warehouse,  or  other  place  of  business  that 
previously  was  occupied  by  another  ten- 
nant. 

Take  (.'are  With  Keys 

1 1 .  Carry  keys  to  your  place  of  business 
on  a  different  key  ring  than  the  one  you 
use  for  your  automobile  key.  If  office  keys 
are  left  in  a  parking  lot  with  your  ignition 
key,  they  can  be  copied  by  an  attendant 
who  can  then  discover  your  address  by 
checking  your  license  plate  number.  Also 
avoid  carrying  identification  in  your  key 
case.  It  lost,  the  keys  may  be  copied  before 
being  returned  to  you. 

12.  If  you  are  in  the  jewelry,  appliance 
or  other  retail  field  in  which  your  products 
carry  serial  numbers,  you  should  list  these

Professor  Holcomb 
This  brief  summary  of  do's  and  don'ts 
cannot  possibly  include  all  of  the  preven- 
tive steps  necessary  to  mage  your  establish- 
ment "burglar-proof."  But  it  does  inform 
you  of  the  major  mistakes  made  by  busi- 
nessmen and  the  corresponding  preventive 
measure  to  take. 


U  1^ 


FBI  reports  show  that  burglars  annually  steal 
more  than  $100  million  in  money  and  prop- 
erty. 

Most  comprehensive  book  on  this  sub- 
ject is  Professor  Richard  L.  Holcomb's 
"Proleclion  Against  Burglary,"  published 
by  the  Institute  of  Public  Affairs  of  the 
State  University  of  Iowa. 

Professor  Holcomb,  a  former  state  po- 
liceman, agrees  with  the  lock  researchers 
that  most  burglary  is  abetted  by  the  care- 
lessness and  lack  of  preventive  lock  secu- 
rity on  the  part  of  the  store-owner  himself. 
So  score  yourself  on  the  accompanying 
chart  and  see  if  you  have  taken  the  proper 
measures  to  burglarproof  your  place  of

Most  commercial  burglaries  are  made  possible 
by  careless  businessmen  who  virtually  "wel- 
come" the  burglar.

A  Story  of  Three  Counties 

Wealth  taken  out  of  the  gio/o/cl  in  1:1  Dorado,  Placer,  ami  Nevada  Counties 
makes  Arabian  Slights  loot  look  like  "penny  ante" 


EL  Dorado  County  shook  the  work! 
and  quickened  the  pulse  of  men  every- 
where when  it  spread  the  word:  "There's 
gold  here  .  . .  tome  and  get  it!" 

James  W.  Marshall  started  it  all  in 
18-18  when  he  found  the  yellow  stuff  in 
his  millrate  at  Sutter's  Mill  at  Coloma. 

The  irresistible  lure  of  gold  brought 
more  than  100,000  fortune  seekers  into 
El  Dorado  County  in  the  next  two  years. 
They  swarmed  over  the  hills  in  their  fever- 
ish search  for  riches.  So  many  came,  in 
fact,  that  some  towns  in  the  east  became 
ghost  towns,  ironic  in  that  some  years 
later  many  of  the  new  towns  in  El  Dorado 
County  too  would  become  ghost  towns. 

Vacationer's  Paradise 

But  Mother  Nature  also  gave  the  county 
another  dazzling  smile.  At  the  extreme 
eastern  part  of  the  county  is  Lake  Tahoc, 
truly  one  of  the  most  inspiring  and  magni- 
ticent  resort  areas  in  the  U.  S. 

The  lake  itself  is  famed  for  its  beauty 
and  for  its  extensive,  year  'round  resort 
facilities.  Its  surface  is  6225  feet  above 
sea  level,  the  largest  body  of  water  on  the 
North  American  continent  at  such  a  high

The  Gilded  One 

El  Dorado  —  meaning  "The  Gilded 
One"  in  Spanish — is  one  of  the  original 
27  counties  founded  on  February  18,  1850. 
The  rugged  terrain  is  bounded  on  the 
north  by  the  American  and  Rubicon  Rivers 
and  Placer  County;  on  the  south  by  the 
Cosumnes  River  and  Amador  County.  El- 
evations vary  from  3'>0  to  10,900  feet 
above  sea  level.  The  entire  area  is  rich  in 
lumber,  minerals,  fruit,  cattle,  and  sheep. 

The  beautiful  city  of  Placerville  is  the 
county  seat.  Old-timers  still  call  it  Hang- 
town,  it's  former  name.  It  got  the  name  in 
the  early  gold  rush  days  because  desper- 
adoes usually  met  swift  justice  on  the  busi- 
ness end  of  a  rope.  The  town  is  home  of 
I  delicious  and  peculiarly  California  dish, 
Hangtown  Fry." 

Around  the  Placerville  area  are  many 
modern  industries:  lumber,  gold,  lime, 
slate,  and  many  other  minerals.  The  area 
also  abounds  in  such  crops  as  pears,  apples, 
md  cherries. 

Diamond  Springs,  Pilot  Hill,  George- 
town, Lotus,  Cool,  Somerset — all  of  these 
picturesque  communities  contribute  their

POPULAR  Placer  County  is  another 
of  the  Northern  California  counties 
blessed  by  being  located  in  the  fabulous 
Mother  Lode  Country  and  also  on  Lake 
Tahoe.  Tahoe,  with  its  tremendous  depth, 
exquisite  and  variable  coloring,  brings 
many  people  to.  numerous  well-known 
summer  and  winter  resorts  in  the  county. 
Approximately  one-third  of  Tahoe's 
area  lies  in  the  county.  The  remainder  is 
divided  almost  equally  between  El  Dorado 
County  and  the  State  of  Nevada. 

Winter  Playground 

Around  Tahoe  and  in  other  pajts  of 
Placer  County  are  a  great  variety  of  attrac- 
tions. Here,  amid  breathtaking  scenery,  are 
excellent  recreational  facilities.  There  are 
numerous  spots  for  hunting  bear,  black- 
tailed  deer,  and  mule  deer,  pheasant  and 
quail,  lake  or  stream  fishing  for  catfish  and 
trout;  riding  and  hiking  trails;  and  camp- 
grounds, swimming,  boating,  and  all  the 
winter  sports. 

Early  History 

The  county  dates  back  to  1851  when  it 
was  formed  from  parts  of  Sutter  and  Yuba 
Counties.  Its  name  comes  from  the  Spanish 
term  for  deposits  containing  gold  and 
which  is  obtained  by  washing.

The  first  settlement  was  set  up  in  Placer 
County  in  1844  by  Theodore  Sicard.  Sicard 
and  a  friend,  Claude  Chana,  reportedly 
planted  the  first  commercial  orchard  in 
the  Sacramento  Valley.  They  used  almonds 
and  peach  stones  brought  into  the  area  by 
emigrant  families.  Today,  many  neatly- 
kept  orchards  account  for  much  of  the 
area's  annual  income. 

Early  Hardships 

The  rugged  terrain  and  severe  winters 
brought  early  emigrants  to  the  brink  of 
disaster.  At  Emigrant  Gap  the  iron  spikes 
driven  into  the  rock  are  still  to  be  seen. 
The  settlers  were  forced  to  use  block  and 
tackle  to  lower  wagons  down  the  steep 
cliffs. 

The  county's  land  surface  is  greatly  di- 
verse, ranging  from  lush,  productive  valley 
floors  to  bleak,  sub-alpine  areas.  The  en- 
tire county  includes  an  area  of  1,400 
square  miles  in  the  long  strip  of  land 
from  the  Central  'Valley  northeastward  to 
the  Nevada  border  at  Lake  Tahoe.  Most 
of  this  section  is  mountainous,  lying  across 
the  western  slope  of  the  Sierra  in  a  succes- 
sion of  long  and  increasingly  steep  ridges. 
The  sub-alpine  area  continues  to  the  crest 
of  the  range  a  few  miles  west  of  the  lake. 

This  is  part  of  the  Mother  Lode  Coun-

today  it  is  a  major  center  for  agriculture, 
lumber,  and  some  light  manufacturing  of 
wood,  charcoal,  and  day  products,  and 
freight  car  loading  cc|uipmcnt. 

The  DeWitt  State  Hospital  is  near  Au-

Nevada  County: 
A  place  of  scenic  beauty  and  plenty  of  gold 


It's  easy  to  see  why  Nevada  County  is 
one  of  the  most  scenic  and  beautiful 
counties  in  Northern  Cahfornia. 

The  spectacular  Sierra  crest  cuts  across 
most  of  the  eastern  part,  a  lake-dotted 
area  of  magnificent  scenery.  This  region 
has  elevations  exceeding  9,000  feet  while 
some  sections  in  the  western  part  of  the 
county  are  just  a  little  above  sea  level. 

Excellent  Facilities 

If  you're  the  outdoor  type,  you  will 
surely  find  the  area  to  your  liking.  The 
county  abounds  in  excellent  facilities  for 
hunting,  fishing,  camping,  and  hiking.  It 
also  has  numerous  up-to-date  winter  resort 
areas. 

Just  a  short  distance  away  are  two  top 
recreational  areas,  Lake  Tahoe  and  the 
Tahoe  National  Forest.  Nevada  County 
shares  these  ideal  natural  wonders  with  its 
adjacent  counties. 

History  and  Legend 
This  county  with  the  picture-book  set- 
ting has  acquired  a  rich  amount  of  roman-

tic  history  and  legend  since  its  formation 
in  1851. 

Here  was  the  setting  for  perhaps  one  of 
the  most  gruesome  tragedies  in  the  often- 
bloody  settling  of  the  'West.  It  was  the  ill- 
fated  Donner  Party,  most  of  whose  mem- 
bers died  horribly  from  starvation  and 
from  severe  cold  weather. 

Here,  in  the  city  of  Grass  Valley,  lived 
Lola  Montez,  the  beautiful  and  daring 
bombshell  of  grandfather's  day.  Her  repu- 
tation made  her  the  talk  of  two  continents, 
her  charm  and  grace  brought  her  friend- 
ships with  great  people,  and  her  social 
functions — mostly  held  for  the  benefit  of 
young  miners — made  her  the  talk  of  the 
Mother  Lode. 

Her  Protegee 

La  Montez  met  a  lovely  and  lonely 
young  girl  who  lived  in  a  big  boarding 
house  in  Grass  Valley.  The  glamorous  en- 
tertainer taught  the  talented  youngster  the 
dance  steps  and  the  ballads  which  later 
brought  the  girl  triumph  after  triumph.

Meet  Grass  Valley's  Frank  Knuckey 


The  big  job  of  running  the  police  de- 
partment for  the  City  of  Grass  Valley  is 
in  the  capable  hands  of  a  real  go-getter, 
Chief  I''rank  E.  Knuckey. 

Chief  Knuckey  joined  the  department  in 
1939  as  a  patrolman.  He  rose  to  the  post 
of  Assistant  Chief,  a  job  he  held  for  two 
years. 

Twelve  years  ago,  when  the  then  Chid 
Ben  Jenkins  resigned,  Knuckey  was  ap- 
pointed police  chief  and  has  held  that  post 
ever  since. 

A  force  of  eight  men  work  for  Chief 
Knuckey.  They  include  an  assistant  chict; 
two  sergeants,  James  Parman  and  Don 
Chester;  Patrolmen  William  Sproul,  Eii 
gene  Cantrell,  Ted  Kennedy,  Vince  Seek, 
James  Miller,  and  Frank  Valenta. 

Chief  Knuckey  and  his  men  cooperate 
closely  with  Sheriff  Wayne  Brown,  with 
Placer  County  Sheriff  Bill  Scott,  and  with 
the  California  Highway  Patrol.  The  entire 
district  has  an  efficient  series  of  roadblocks 
which  can  be  put  into  operation  at  a  mo- 
ment's notice. 


The  49-ycar-old  chief  is  a  proud  family 
man.  He  has  a  daughter,  Deanna,  19,  and 
an  18-year-old  son.  Bob,  a  student  at  Sierra 
College  in  Auburn. 


The  young  lady,  who  began  her  show- 
business  career  by  going  with  her  mother 
from  mining  camp  to  mining  camp,  was 
Lotta  Crabtree.  Her  home  still  stands  at 
220  Mill  Street. 

A  Land  of  Gold 

The  picturesque  town  of  Nevada  City 
is  the  county  seat.  The  town  has  always 
drawn  its  wealth  from  nearby  gold  mines. 
In  the  1860's  it  came  from  rich  placer  dig- 
gings, in  the  1870's  came  the  awesome 
hydraulic  excavations,  and  today  the  deep 
quartz  mines  yield  their  precious  metal. 

In  1850,  a  huge  gold  mining  operation 
sprang  up  near  the  city.  It  was  worked 
furiously,  played  out  in  two  years,  but  the 
miners  reportedly  carted  off  over  $8  mil- 
lion in  gold  dust  and  nuggets.

is  a  close  neighbor  of  Nevada  City  and  is 
the  largest  cit)-  in  Ncv.ida  County.  Wealth 
from  nearby  c^uartz  mines  would  make  the 
Arabian  Nights  loot  look  like  chicken 
feed.  Grass  Valley  was  one  of  the  truly 
great  gold  mining  towns.  The  fabled 
quartz  mines  were  first  tapped  about  IS'iO. 
In  the  surrounding  fir-clad  countryside  are 
mines  which  are  still  in  operation  today, 
long  after  the  disappearance  of  placer  and 
hydraulic  operations. 

Between  1850  and  1857,  the  Gold  Hill 
alone  produced  some  $4  million.  A  yield 
of  some  S80  million  is  said  to  have  come 
out  of  the  Empire,  on  Ophir  Hill,  and 
from  the  North  Star.  The  Empire  opened 
in  1850  and  is  still  in  operation,  as  is  the 
North  Star,  which  began  operations  in 
1851.  Along  with  these,  the  others  still  in

Grass  Valley  Scenes 

The  Grass  Valley  of  today  has  a  pros- 
perous, modern  air  about  it.  The  wide 
main  street,  the  service  stations,  the  new 
store  fronts  ...  all  give  a  look  of  newness. 
But  behind  many  of  the  new  fronts,  the 
visitor  will  find  the  interior  just  as  it  was 
in  the  Gold  Rush  days. 

The  home  in  which  Actress  Montez 
lived  in  retirement  from  1852  to  1854  is 
still  standing  at  the  corner  of  Mill  and 
Walsh  Streets.  The  childhood  home  of 
Lotta  Crabtree  is  also  still  standing,  at  220 
Mill  Street. 

Colorful  Names 

Most  of  the  spectacular  winter  and  sum- 
mer recreational  activity  is  centered  around 
Truckee,  an  unincorporated  community  of 
about  1,800  people. 

In  the  county  are  several  other  small 
and  picturesque  little  communities  whose 
names  bear  witness  to  a  colorful  history. 
Here  are  Rough  and  Ready,  You  Bet, 
French  Corral,  and  Bridgeport  (site  of  the 
longest  covered  bridge  in  the  world). 

The  economy  of  Nevada  County  has 
done  exceptionally  well  considering  a  few 
adjustments  which  it  was  forced  to  make. 
A  moderate  decline  in  popoulation  since 
1950  plus  shut  down  of  some  of  the 
mines  could  have  made  things  difficult,

but    its    people   weathered   the   cionumii 
crisis  beautifully.  Personal  incomes  grad- 
ually increased  over  the  past  few  years. 
New  Economy 

During  the  past  decade,  there  has  been 
an  increase  in  acreage  devoted  to  farms, 
range  and  pasture.  Much  of  the  farm  in- 
come now  comes  from  livestock  and  poul- 
try products.  Another  substantial  increase 
in  recent  years  has  been  in  the  number  of 
animals  on  the  farms  and  ranches,  both  for 
meat  and  dairy  purposes. 

In  the  western  end  of  Nevada  County 
are  many  acres  of  tine  cropland  devoted  to 
pears,  grapes,  and  oranges. 

Recently,  mineral  production  in  the 
county  was  valued  at  Si.*)  million.  Gold 
still  leads  the  list  of  principal  minerals 
produced.  For  many  years,  Nevada  County 
led  all  other  counties  in  gold  production, 
but  the  production  has  dropped  off  con- 
siderably in  the  last  few  years.  In  fact,  in 
1957  several  large  underground  lode 
mines  shut  down  and  sold  most  of  their 
etjuipment. 

Among  the  numerous  other  minerals 
found  here  are  antimony,  asbestos,  barite, 
bismuth,  pyrife,  soapstone,  and  tungsten. 
The  eastern  part  of  the  county  has  shown 
signs  of  containing  large  amounts  of  ura- 
nium-bearing minerals.

maintained  a  steady  level  of  production. 
But  in  the  last  few  years  it  has  grown  into 
Nevada  County's  major  industrial  activity. 
It  now  accounts  for  about  one-third  of  the 
total  non-agricultural  wages  and  salaries. 
Ponderosa  pine,  white  fir,  and  Douglas  fir 
are  the  principal  specie  used  for  lumber 
purposes. 

Besides  the  lumber  business,  there  is 
also  brisk  activity  in  lumber  products,  ma- 
chinery, machine  shops,  foundry  products, 
and  electronic  components. 

The  progressive  business  activity  —

Too  many  stop  signs 
spoil  Belnnont  traffic 

BELMONT,  CAL.  —  Chief  of  Police 
James  W.  Lyall  has  requested  that  the  City 
Council  nix  some  of  Belmont's  many  stop 
signs. 

The  Chief  stated  that  it  has  been  proven 
that  the  stop  signs  do  nothing  more  than 
needlessly  interrupt  an  otherwise  smooth 
flow  of  traffic. 

Said  Chief  Lyall:  "I  have  found  out 
that  when  a  stop  sign  is  placed  on  a  cer- 
tain intersection,  all  the  neighbors  down 
the  street  get  envious  and  want  one  of 
their  own." 

Lyall  also  suggested  that  a  traffic  com- 
mission be  appointed  in  order  to  take  the 
traffic  problem  off  his  shoulders.

What  you  should  know  about  heart  trouble 


f fT  1  FART  TROi'BLi:"   is  probably  to- 
XJL   d^y  s  most  thoroughly  talked- 
alx)ut  illness  and  perhaps  the  most  mis- 
understood. 

The  many  forms  ot  heart  illness  and  the 
many  medical  terms  relating  to  heart  ail- 
ments are  mainly  responsible  for  this  mis- 
understanding. 

All  around  us  these  days,  we  hear  peo- 
ple talk  about  toronary  conditions,  heart 
trouble,  heart  attack,  heart  failure,  cardi- 
acs, and  so  on.  Some  folks  even  go  so  far 
as  to  bandy  about  the  five-dollar  medical 
words  like  "arterio-sclerosis,"  "hyperten- 
sion," "coronary  thrombosis,"  etc. 

Terms  Need  Clearer  Meaning 
What,  precisely,  do  all  these  terms 
mean .'  Most  of  us  have  pretty  fair  notions 
about  most  of  the  phrases,  but  few  can 
specifically  relate  them  to  what  can  happen 
to  sick  hearts.  Ignorance  about  this  most 
important  of  all  organs — especially  in  an 
age  when  more  than  half  of  all  deaths  are 
caused  by  heart  disease — can  lead  many 
of  us  to  have  unwarranted  fears  while,  at 
the  other  extreme,  many  others  can  fail  to

take  ordinary  precautions  that  could  save 
their  lives. 

Here,  in  question-and-answer  form  is  a 
quick  summary  of  heart  troubles  that  may 
help  clear  up  some  of  this  scientific 
"gobble-de-gook." 

W^ha/  are  ihe  major  types  of  heart 
trouble? 

The  most  frequent  forms  today  are  the 
coronary,  or  arteriosclerotic,  heart  diseases: 
hypertension  (or  high  blood  pressure), 
and  rheumatic  heart  diseases  following  an 
attack  of  rheumatic  fever. 

Infections,  such  as  the  viral  diseases  and 
others,  can  cause  a  number  of  heart  trou- 
bles when  circulating  blood  brings  poisons 
to  the  layers  of  the  heart.  Acute  myocard- 
itis, an  inflammation  of  the  heart  muscle, 
is  an  example.  Anemia  is  another  cause. 
By  interfering  with  the  oxygen  supply,  it 
can  cause  the  muscle  to  weaken  at  a  time 
when  the  heart  must  work  harder  to  cir- 
culate the  weakened  blood. 

Heart  conditions  brought  about  by  in- 
fection and  anemia  can  be  cured  by  remov- 
ing the  cause.

Then,  there  are  many  children  born 
with  congenital  deformities  of  the  heart. 
The  "blue  babies "  are  examples.  But,  sta- 
tistically speaking,  the  cases  of  malformed 
hearts  are  rather  rare,  and  great  advances 
in  surgical  treatments  in  recent  years  have 
cut  down  the  death  rate. 

So-called  congestive  heart  failure,  or  the 
inability  of  the  heart  to  keep  up  with  the 
body's  demand  for  blood,  is  a  complica- 
tion possible  in  any  heart  trouble.  It  can  be 
chronic  or  acute. 

Anxieties  and  Fears 
Finally,  though  not  a  disease,  cardiac 
neurosis  cannot  be  overlooked.  Fear  of 
heart  disease  and  other  anxieties  can  pro- 
duce in  organically  sound  hearts  such  func- 
tional disturbances  as  tachycardia  (over- 
rapid  heart  beat),  palpitation  of  the  heart, 
severe  chest  pains,  labored  breathing  and 
many  other  symptoms  that  closely  resem- 
ble actual  heart  attacks.  Relief  of  anxiety 
— by  way  of  a  clean  bill  of  health  from  a 
doctor,  for  one  thing — and  good  living 
habits  are  the  best  medicine.

Back  to  the  term  "coronary,"  just  what 
does  It  mean? 

The  phrase  refers  to  a  heart  disease 
caused  by  damage  to  one  or  both  of  the 
two  coronary  arteries  upon  which  the  heart 
depends  ahinost  solely  for  nourishment. 

Both  coronary  arteries  emerge  from  the 
trunk  of  the  aorta  and  spread,  like  a  crown 
for  which  they  are  named,  down  and  over 
the  heart.  With  many  branches,  they  reach 
every  liber  of  cardiac  muscle.  Blood  pour- 
ing back  from  the  lungs,  where  it  has 
received  a  new  supply  of  oxygen,  enters 
the  aorta  and,  at  the  great  artery's  first 
branch,  flows  into  the  coronaries  to  feed 
the  heart  muscle. 

Age,  Obesity  Cause  Damage 

The  aging  process,  plus  other  factors, 
can  produce  damage  called  sclerosis  in  the 
coronary  arteries.  Fatty  deposits,  not  un- 
like rust  and  scale  on  the  inside  of  a  water 
pipe,  lodge  in  patches  in  the  inner  lining 
of  the  blood  vessels.  This  is  atheroscler- 
osis. Small  patches  in  large  vessels  may 
cause  no  trouble,  but  large  patches  in  small 
vessels  and  deposits  that  build  on  top  of 
each  other  can  cause  the  passage  to  narrow 
so  much  that  blood  backs  up  and  clots,  and 
heart  attacks  ensue. 

What  is  the  difference  hetu'een  arterio- 
sclerosis and  atherosclerosis? 

Atherosclerosis,  the  condition  just  des- 
cribed, is  the  most  common  form  of  ar- 
teriosclerosis, a  general  term  for  all  hard- 
ening of  arteries  by  calcium  deposits  or 
thickening.  In  atherosclerosis,  the  interior 
of  the  artery  does  not  always  harden,  but 
the  artery  wall  becomes  thick  and  rough 
with  deposits  of  the  fatty  chemical,  choles- 
terol. Clogging  results.

What  is  known  about  high  blood  pres- 
sure? 

In  the  normal  body,  chemicals,  nerves 
and  muscles  in  the  artery  walls  work  to- 
gether to  keep  blood  pressure  normal. 
Sudden  fright  can  make  it  soar  temporar- 
ily, however,  and  some  infections  (such  as 
of  the  kidneys)  cause  a  form  of  hyperten- 
sion that  is  curable.  Most  people  with  high 
blood  pressure,  however,  have  what  is 
known  as  essential  hypertension,  and  the 
exact  causes  are  usually  unknown.  For 
some  reason,  women  are  more  susceptible 
than  men. 

Can  anything  be  done  to  prevent  heart 
attacks? 

There  is  nothing  anyone  can  do  about 
his  heredity  and  his  sex,  but  some  of  the 
other  factors  can  be  eliminated.  Here  is 
what  doctors  advise  for  all  adults  partic- 
ularly those  over  40: 

•  Have  physical  checkups  frequently, 
with  special  regard  to  the  heart,  blood 
pressure  and  possibly  cholesterol  content 
of  the  blood. 

•  If  you  have  chest  pains  or  odd  heart 
beats,  see  a  doctor  immediately.  An  elec- 
trocardiograph reading  can  tell  whether 
something  has  damaged  your  heart  or 
whether  the  distress  is  functional. 

•  Keep  your  weight  steady  all  your 
adult  life.  Most  people  should  always 
weigh  about  as  much  as  they  did  when 
they  were  25.  If  you  are  overweight,  take 
off  the  extra  pounds  and  keep  them  off. 

•  Go  in  for  regular,  moderate  exercise, 
but  don't  be  a  strenuous  and  competitive 
week-end  or  vacation  athlete  if  you  don't 
get  much  exercise  at  other  times.

Stanley  Mosk  speaks 
to  Stanislaus  group 

MODESTO,  CAL.— Members  of  Stan- 
islaus County  Peace  Officers  Association 
were  presented  some  interesting  facts  and 
figures  hy  Attorney  General  Stanley  Mosk. 
The  chief  law  enforcement  officer  of  Cali- 
fornia was  guest  speaker  at  a  recent  meet- 
ing of  Exchange  Clubs,  Soroptimist  Clubs, 
and  the  peace  officer  group. 

"The  initial  cost  of  crime  in  California 
is  S20  million  a  year  in  damaged  and 
stolen  property,"  Mosk  said.  "But  this  is 
only  the  beginning  as  economic  losses 
mount  up  to  many  times  that  when  you 
consider  higher  welfare  costs,  law  enforce- 
ment and  court  expenses  and  the  higher 
premiums  you  pay  for  insurance  because 
of  crime." 

Thirty-five  per  cent  of  California's  17- 
year-olds  have  had  some  brush  with  the 
law,  said  the  attorney  general.  This  in- 
cludes traffic  violations.  Only  three  per 
cent  of  the  state's  youngsters  can  be  con- 
sidered juvenile  delinquents.  Still  this  adds 
up  to  100,000  delinc|uents  in  California, 
he  said. 

California  leads  the  U.  S.  in  alcoholics 
with  72  out  of  every  1000  Californians  an 
alcoholic.  The  state  has  over  half  a  million 
alcoholics.  San  Francisco  has  the  dubious 
honor  of  leading  with  I'iO  alcoholics  per 
1000  inhabitants. 

The  cost  is  great,  said  Mosk,  pointing 
out  the  fact  that  each  year  there  are  3,300 
disability  claims  because  of  alcoholism  and 
16  major  California  cities  make  225,000 
drunk  arrests  annually. 

"Sixteen  per  cent  of  the  fatal  accidents 
involve  drinking  drivers,"  said  Attorney 
General  Mosk.  "Californians  each  year 
consume  18^  million  gallons  of  beer,  26 
million  gallons  of  wine,  and  20  million 
gallons  of  distilled  spirits. 

"That  adds  up  to  25  gallons  per  person 
for  each  man,  woman,  and  child  over  the 
age  15." 

Mosk  said  that  citizens  could  help  pre- 
vent crime  by  remembering  a  hard  and 
fast  rule:  "Don't  invite  crime." 

•  Don't  leave  homes  and  business  un- 
locked. 

•  Don't  let  your  papers  and  milk  pile 
up  on  the  door  step. 

•  Don't  carry  large  sums  of  money. 

•  Don't  leave  your  car  keys  in  the  igni- 
tion. 

•  Cooperate  to  the  fullest  with  local 
law  enforcement  officers.  Mosk  praised  the 
local  group  for  their  outstanding  work. 

•  And  for  parents,  the  attorney  general 
urged  them  to  know  what  their  children 
were  doing.

IF  YOU  DRIVE  at  all  today,  you'll  find

and  lengthen  with  increasing  rapidity.

on  these  superhighways,  you  simulate  high

glide  along  in  secure,  velvety  swiftness. 

Entry  Is  Important 

1  low  should  you  drive  then,  to  assure  a 
sale  trip  on  a  superhighway.'' 

First,  the  way  you  enter  a  freeway  is 
important.  It  must  be  done  at  the  approx- 
imate speed  of  the  through  traffic.  This 
means,  in  most  instances,  that  you  must 
build  up  your  speed  considerably  before 
you  enter.  To  make  accelerated  entering 


possible,  a  special  anelcration  or  "speed 
up"  lane  is  usually  provided. 

It  is  your  obligation  when  entering  to 
check  larefully  to  the  side  and  rear  all  the 
while  you  are  in  the  acceleration  lane  to 
make  sure  that  the  gap  in  the  through  traf- 
fic is  sutliiiently  long  so  you  will  merge 
without  forcing  the  traffic  approaching 
1  rom  the  rear  to  slow  down  or  swerve 
dangerously. 

Always  enter  the  nearest  or  "slow"  lane 
ot  the  Irteway  and  stay  in  it  for  some  time, 
certainly  until  you  feel  "keyed"  to  freeway 
driving  conditions.  It  takes  time  to  get 
keyed,  particularly  if  you  have  been  driv- 


ing only  on  city  streets  or  back  country 
roads  for  a  long  time. 

Watch  Directional  Signs 
Before  you  enter  a  freeway,  keep  alert 
for  directional  signs.  Follow  these  signs 
to  the  destination  you  want  no  matter  in 
what  direction  they  may  be  leading  you. 
They  may  appear  to  lead  you  in  the  wrong 
direction  when  you  are  following  a  route 
through  a  complicated  interchange  struc- 
ture. 

If  you  should  enter  a  freeway  on  the 
wrong   approach    and    are  going    in    the

wrong  direction,  you  may  have  to  drive  a 
considerable  distance  before  you  can  leave 
it  at  the  next  interchange  and  re-enter  it  in 
the  right  direction.  Never  attempt  to  cross 
the  center  strip  to  turn  around  and  get 
into  the  opposing  traffic  stream.  It's  il- 
legal— worse,  it's  suicidal ! 

Be  Patient 

If  you  enter  a  city  freeway  at  peak  com- 
muter hours,  guard  against  the  irritation 
aroused  by  the  molasses-like  traffic  move- 
ment. It  is  doubtful  whether  freeways  will 
ever  be  designed  to  carry  all  the  com- 
muters in  one  hour  any  more  than  an  office 
elevator  can  be  built  to  carry  all  the  em- 
ployees in  a  building  in  one  load.  Since 
freeway  driving  in  commuter  traffic  is 
usually  trying,  be  patient  and  don't  let 
your  emotional  tensions  take  over  the 
wheel. 

At  superhighway  speeds,  you  have  to 
think  ahead  and  frequently  act  ahead  of 
your  usual  driving  habits.  Tragic  crashes 
can  occur  because  of  split-second  inatten- 
tion to  the  business  of  driving.  Anticipate 
what  other  drivers  around  you  intend  to 
do,  notice  traffic  conditions  shaping  up 
both  ahead  and  behind  you.  Expect  the 
unexpected. 

Check  Your  Speed 

Even  though  freeway  speeds  are  gen- 
erally higher  than  those  on  ordinary  high- 
ways, don't  drive  at  these  speeds  when 
weather  conditions,  visibility  or  road  sur- 
face are  adverse.  If  any  driving  factor 
drops  below  standard,  common  sense  re- 
quires that  you  reduce  speed.  Also,  if  you 
come  to  a  zone  of  reduced  speed,  respect 
it.  It's  been  set  up  because  of  some  special 
hazard. 

Check  your  speed  often.  Freeway  or 
expressway  driving  requires  little  effort 
and  you  may  grow  so  accustomed  to  sus- 
tained high  speeds  that  you  lose  your 
ability  to  judge  speed.  What  seems  like 
55  mph  may  be  70  mph. 

Equally  dangerous  on  the  freeway  as 
the  excessive  speeder  is  the  slowpoke. 
Freeway  driving   doesn't  permit  the  lei-. 


Strict  attention  and  planning  ahead  is  a  must 
in  order  to  be  on  correct  route  or  in  proper 
traffic  lane.

surely  driving  suitable  on  ordinary  roads. 
Many  freeway  drivers  are  bound  for  places 
at  considerable  distance  and  are  interested 
in  getting  there  quickly.  On  a  freeway, 
you  become  part  of  this  traffic  pattern; 
tern;  therefore,  unless  you  also  are  inter- 
ested in  a  swift,  direct  journey,  you  don't 
fit  into  the  freeway  traffic  pace.  You  be- 
come a  lane-blocker  and  cause  drivers  be- 
hind you  to  change  lanes  or  make  other 
unsafe  maneuvers. 

Avoid  Fatigue 

Maybe  you  don't  "turtle  along,"  but  if 
you  prefer  to  travel  at  speeds  less  than 
those  of  traffic  moving  in  the  fast  lanes, 
you  should  stay  in  the  right  or  so-called 
slow  lane.  If  you  notice  cars  lining  up  be- 
hind you  or  attempting  to  pass  you  on  the 
right,  it's  time  to  move  over.  An  impor- 
tant part  of  your  driving  responsibility  on 
freeways  is  to  be  aware  of  how  you're  af- 
fecting other  drivers. 

Don't  drive  too  long  without  a  break. 
Scientific  tests  show  that  most  drivers  dis- 
play unmistakable  symptoms  of  fatigue 
long  before  they  suspect  they  are  tired. 
After  si,\  hours  of  driving,  your  efficiency 
declines  progressively,  no  matter  how 
good  you  think  you  are.  In  this  condition 
you  can  unconsciously  overdrive  your  re- 
actions. 'With  your  car  going  55  or  60 
mph,  your  physical  responses  and  mental 
alertness  may  be  moving  only  40  mph  or 
less. 

Highway  Hypnosis 

Never  forget  that  more  continuous  at- 


tention is  required  of  a  motor  vehicle  op- 
erator than  of  the  operator  of  any  other 
type  of  transportation.  Thus,  if  you  are  a 
long-distance  superhighway  driver,  a  par- 
adoxical situation  arises.  You  need  to  con- 
centrate on  the  road  ahead,  keep  continu- 
ously alert.  On  the  other  hand,  over-con- 
centration on  your  driving,  staring  fixedly 
for  long  periods  while  being  lulled  by  the 
purr  of  the  engine,  the  hum  of  the  tires 
and  the  general  monotony  of  easy  car  op- 
eration may  induce  a  state  of  "highway 
hypnosis." 

Woolgathering  or  drowsiness  should 
immediately  warn  you  that  you  are  grow- 
ing perilously  indifferent  to  actual  traffic 
conditions  and  reaching  an  hypnotic  state. 
In  this  condition  drivers  have  been  known 
to  plunge  off  superhighways  or  plow  into 
anything  in  their  path. 

Combat  drowsiness  while  rolling  along 
a  superhighway  by  making  frequent  varia- 
tions in  speed,  posture  and  eye  sweep. 
Avoid  oversmoking  and  overeating.  Keep 
the  window  open  so  you  are  assured  of  a 
steady  supply  of  fresh  air.  Wear  clothing 
that  permits  free  blood  circulation,  Sing- 
ing, chewing  gum,  listening  to  a  snappy 
radio  program  are  also  helpful  in  main- 
taining alertness.  Drive  off  the  freeway  to 
stop  and  rest  every  two  or  three  hours 
whether  you  feel  like  it  or  not.  Even  take 
a  nap  if  you  can't  fling  off  groggincss  any 
other  way.  Usually  walking  around  a  little, 
washing  and  freshening  up,  a  cup  of  cof- 
fee or  a  soft  drink  will  do  the  trick.  If  pos-

Don't  Be  A  "Tailgater" 

Because  of  higher  speeds  on  freeways 
and  expressways,  your  stopping  distances 
are  longer  than  on  ordinary  roads.  The 
most  frequent  type  of  accident  on  super- 
highways is  rear-end  collisions  resulting 
from  cars  following  too  closely  at  high 
speeds.  Freeway  bumper-hugging  is  flirt-

warn  "tailgater"  for  following  too  closely. 
Tailgating  is  a  major  cause  of  freeway  pile- 
ups. 

ing  with  tragedy.  Your  safe  following  dis- 
tance should  be  at  least  20  feet  for  each 
ten  miles  an  hour  of  speed.  Or  you  can 
apply  the  rule  another  way:  multiply  your 
speedometer  reading  by  two  and  stay  that 
many  feet  behind  the  car  you  are  follow- 
ing. 

If  another  driver  follows  too  closely, 
slow  down  with  caution,  keep  well  to  the 
right  and  encourage  him  to  pass.  You  will 
be  safer  with  him  ahead. 

On  freeways  and  expressways,  particu- 
larly in  urban  areas,  pick  a  lane  where 
traffic  is  traveling  at  your  rate  of  speed  and 
stay  in  it.  Lane-changing  will  gain  you 
little  headway.  In  fact,  changing  lanes 
without  due  caution  causes  the  second 
highest  number  of  accidents  on  these  fast- 
travel  routes. 

Watch  Front  and  Rear 

At  freeway  access  or  exit  points,  you 
should  be  on  special  guard  against  "dart- 
ing daredevils" — the  drivers  who  wait 
until  the  last  few  seconds  to  merge  with 
through  traffic  or  jockey  for  position  to  get 
on  the  off-ramp. 

Passing  without  proper  caution  falls 
into  the  same  dangerous  class  of  freeway 
driving  as  careless  lane-weaving.  Before 
passing,  always  carefully  check  conditions 
both  to  the  front  and  rear.  Be  sure  to 
check  the  "blind  spot" — that  narrow  area 
to  your  side  and  rear  where  a  car  can  be

entirely  tonicaled  by  th.it  p.irt  of  your  lar's 
tonstruction  between  side  and  rear  win-

with  you  faster  than  you  think  and  pull 
into  this  blind  zone,  then  seemingly  tome 
"out  ot  nowhere"  when  you  start  to  pass. 
Never  create  a  broader  blind  spot  by  hang- 
ing a  coat  or  other  object  in  such  a  way 
that  your  view  to  the  side  or  rear  is  re-

you.  After  you  pull  out,  stay  in  the  passing 
lane  until  you  can  fully  see  the  tar  you 
have  passed  in  your  rear-view  mirror.  If 
you  don't  you  may  tut  in  too  quickly  and 
thante  a  sideswipe  because  the  fast  speed 
gives  you  a  feeling  that  you  have  traveled 
farther  than  you  really  have  to  tlear  the 
vehitle  you  are  passing.  But,  remember, 
that  vehicle  is  going  fast,  too,  covering 
almost  as  much  ground  as  you  are.  In  other 
words,  you  need  a  longer  passing  distante 
on  freeways  than  on  other  highways.  After 
you're  sure  you  are  in  the  tlear,  then  sig- 
nal and  move  batk  into  the  right-hand 
lane,  if  conditions  permit,  without  slowing 
down. 

Prepare  For  Your  Exit 

Prepare  well  in  advance  for  leaving  a 
freeway  or  expressway.  Be  sure  of  the  exit 
you  want  to  take  and  watth  for  signs  in- 
dicating how  far  it  is.  Signs  designating 
interchanges  and  exits  are  generally  found 
up  to  a  mile  or  so  in  advance.  These  are 
followed  by  other  signs  indicating  the  lane 
to  use  to  make  the  exit.  On  leaving  the 
freeway  stream,  do  not  slow  down  until 
you  are  in  the  deceleration  or  "speed- 
change"  lane. 

As  you  come  off  the  exit  road,  check 
your  speedometer.  You  will  find  it  diffi- 
cult to  estimate  your  speed  after  miles  of 
superhighway  driving.  You've  been  "vc- 
locitized,"  but  now  you  have  to  blend  with 
slower  traffic  and  move  in  closer  quarters 
with  other  vehicles.  You're  back  in  vari- 


able-driving territory,  with  side  streets, 
traffic  lights,  pedestrians  and  a  variety  of 
speed  zones. 

Responsibility 
Freeways  and  expressways  are  designed 
to  let  you  reach  your  destination  faster, 
easier  and  safer  than  other  highways.  And 
they  will  do  just  that  provided  you  and 
other  motorists  drive  courteously,  cooper- 
atively and  sensibly.  This  means  that  the 
responsibility  for  making  superhighways 
safe  ways  rests  squarely  upon  the  shoul- 
ders of  the  indiviclual  driver.

HANDWRITING  is  One  widely  used 
method  by  which  man  expresses, 
communicates,  and  permanently  records 
his  thoughts  and  emotions.  People  are 
quite  generally  judged  by  gestures,  facial 
expression,  speech,  appearance,  walk,  and 
mannerisms.  Handwriting  is  a  perma- 
nently recorded  gesture.  In  general  it 
would  seem  at  least  as  logical  to  judge  an 
individual  by  his  handwriting  as  it  is  to 
judge  him  by  other  gestures.  But  since 
writing  is  a  more  specific  and  informative 
method  of  conveying  thoughts  and  emo- 
tions it  would  seem  definitely  logical  to 
judge  character  traits  by  the  analysis  of  the 
handwriting. 

Evidence  of  its  value  has  accumulated 
through  more  than  one  hundred  years  of 
experience  and  careful  and  critical  psy- 
chological study.  Preyer,  one  of  the  pio- 
neers of  scientific  graphology  said  in  1895

that  "handwriting  is  brain  writing."  Much

particularly   in   Europe,   which  has   been    ',

Individual's  Expression 

No  two  people  are  alike.  No  two  people 
write  alike.  Practically  no  one,  even  the 
expert  forger,  can  successfully  disguise  his 
own  handwriting.  Or  imitate  another's 
writing.  Once  you  know  a  person's  hand- 
writing it  can  practically  always  be  recog- 
nized unless  the  person  has  become  physi- 
cally or  mentally  ill.  In  general  it  can  be 
recognized  by  those  who  have  no  training 
in  handwriting  analysis.  Handwriting  is 
an  individualistic  expression,  even  in  the 
face  of  the  many  types  of  variations  that 
occur  in  the  person's  writing.  These  facts 
further  support  the  conclusion  that  a  care- 
ful analysis  of  the  writing  by  a  capable 
analyst  trained  in  modern  handwriting  an- 
alysis, rather  generally  called  graphology, 
can  secure  useful  and  reasonably  accurate 
information  regarding  the  personality  and 
character  traits  of  an  individual. 

Adequate  Controls  Needed 

Psychology  has  investigated  various 
methods  for  the  measurement  of  both  per- 
sonality and  intelligence,  and  has  made 
good  progress  in  a  difficult  field  which  is 
handicapped  by  the  great  difficulty  of  set- 
ting up  adequate  research  controls  for 
comparison.  The  I.Q.  method  designed  to 
secure  certain  types  of  information  regard- 
ing intelligence  is  widely  known.  The 
Rorschach  test  for  personality  study  was 
published  in  1921  and  is  based  on  the  pa- 
tient's spontaneous  reaction  to  a  series  of 
standard  ink  blots.  It  has  since  been  quite 
extensively  studied  and  is  rather  widely 
used  by  psychologists  and  psychiatrists  as 
a  standard  procedure.  It  requires  several 
hours  to  make  the  measurements  and  in-

interpreter.  Several  other  types  of  person- 
alit)'  tests  are  used. 

Clearness,  Objectivity  Needed 
Personality  testing  is  handicapped  by 
the  rather  severe  lack  ot  agreement  among 
psychologists  on  basic  theories  of  person- 
ality .IS  proposed  by  Freud,  Adier,  Jung, 
Rank,  Horney  and  others  and  summarized 
by  Muilahy.  Thus,  the  goal  to  be  attained 
by  any  projective  technique  may  lack  de- 
sirable clearness  and  objectivity.  This  is 
likewise  a  handicap  for  handwriting  anal- 
ysis, although  research  and  long  experi- 
ence have  furnished  much  evidence  that 
the  latter  is  distinctly  useful  for  practical 
purposes. 

Early  experiences  with  handwriting 
analysis  dating  back  to  the  seventeenth 
century  were  summarized  and  organized 
by  Michon  and  published  in  1884  in  his 
Syslewe  ile  Graphologie.  This  system  was 
based  on  the  premise  that  an  individual 
sign  or  stroke  in  the  writing  was  a  definite 
indication  of  a  single  character  trait.  This 
would  not  seem  psychologically  sound  and

w.is  soon  repudiated  by  Michon's  students, 
although  vestiges  of  it  under  one  or  an- 
other trade  name  seem  to  flourish,  even  to 
the  present  time.  Michon's  work  was  a 
definite  contribution  in  1880,  but  more 
than  75  years  of  study  and  experience  has 
developed  a  modern  handwriting  analysis, 
graphology,  which  looks  at  handwriting  as 
a  whole.  This  is  a  vast  improvement  over 
the  very  old-fashioned  "sign  equals  trait  " 
type  of  analysis  which  at  best  can  give 
only  a  generalized  classification  of  indivi- 
duals based  on  a  list  of  character  traits 
about  which  one  m.iy  speculate. 

Not  for  Fortune  Telling 

Not  only  is  the  present  use  of  such  old- 
f.ishioned  handwriting  analysis  unfortu- 
nate in  view  of  the  much  greater  useful- 
ness, flexibility,  rapidity,  and  accuracy  of 
modern  graphology,  but  it  lends  itself  to 
misuse  as  a  fortune  telling  device  partly 
because  of  the  limited  training  required. 
Further,  too  many  people  have  thus 
formed  an  incorrect  opinion  regarding  the 
reliability  and  validity  of  modern  hand- 
writing analysis.  Fortunately,  however,  the 
value  of  graphology  is  recognized  by  many

capable  psychologists  as  summarized  in  the 
attached  literature  citations  (at  end  of 
article),  and  as  demonstrated  by  many  sci- 
entific publications  which  appear  in  Amer- 
ican, but  primarily  European,  psychologi- 
cal and  related  journals. 

What  types  of  useful  information  are 
furnished  by  an  analysis  of  a  person's 
writing?  Space  limits  this  discussion  to  a 
brief  mention  of  a  few  characteristics.  Is 
the  person  actually  self  reliant,  cool,  calm, 
and  self  possessed  as  he  appears,  or  is  he 
basically  ruled  by  his  emotions,  perhaps 
even  to  the  point  of  being  somewhat  un- 
predictable, even  though  he  has  schooled 
himself  to  appear  self-reliant?  Does  he 
have  drive,  imagination,  initiative,  and 
diplomacy,  or  is  he  actually  lazy  and  cun- 
ning rather  than  diplomatic?  Is  he  an  in- 
telligent type,  and  a  logical,  intuitive,  and 
clear  thinker,  or  is  he  a  confused  person 
who  has  made  some  progress  partly  on  the 
basis  of  luck? 

Writer  Shows  Inner  Feelings 
Does  he  have  an  inner  feeling  of  in- 
feriority, or  its  contrast,  a  feeling  of  su- 
periority? Is  he  basically  an  honest  type,

cunning  deceptive  side  and  one  who  might 
stretch  the  facts  to  suit  his  needs  or  pur- 
pose ?  Does  he  desire  a  position  of  leader- 
ship, or  would  he  be  better  fitted  to  a  per- 
manent position  in  the  ranks  ?  Has  he  de- 
veloped a  personality  maturity  comparable 
with  his  years,  or  is  he  relatively  immature 
although  advanced  in  years  ?  What  type  of 
work  does  he  like  best  as  determined  by 
his  basic  attitudes  and  desires?  Is  he  pri- 
marily interested  in  intellectual  or  idealistic 
types  of  occupation,  or  is  he  basically  much 
better  fitted  for  the  practical  everyday  type 
of  position,  or  one  involving  physical  ac- 
tivity ? 

Is  he  the  friendly  outgoing  type  of  per- 
son as  he  appears,  who  likes  to  be  with 
and  work  with  people,  or  below  the  sur- 
face does  he  really  much  prefer  to  be  alone 
and  work  alone?  Where  would  he  be 
happier  and  more  efficient?  Would  he 
work  better  behind  a  desk,  where  people 
come  to  him,  or  should  he  be  placed  in  a 
position  to  meet  the  public  and  promote 
public  relations?  Are  there  evidences  in 
his  writing  of  tension,  temper,  and  emo- 
tional problems?  These  and  many  other 
characteristics  could  be  discussed  at  length. 
Practical  information  obtainable  by  hand- 
writing analysis  and  the  consideration  of 
the  various  characteristics  possessed  by  an 
individual  in  relation  to  each  other  can  be 
definitely  helpful  in  many  situations.  Such 
information  can  be  secured  by  a  capable 
analyst  in  a  comparatively  short  time  at  a 
moderate  cost. 

Few  Requirements  Cited 

Handwriting  analysis  is  easy  to  use, 
simple  to  apply,  and  requires  no  costly 
equipment.  Specimens  for  practical  use 
and  for  experimental  work  are  easy  to  ob- 
tain. The  specimen  must  be  representative, 
and  spontaneously  written,  not  copied.  The 
specimen  should  be  on  unruled  bond 
paper.  A  nib  pen  (not  ball-point)  should 
be  used.  It  should  be  a  pen  that  the  writer 
"likes,"  that  "fits  his  hand,"  one  that  he 
would  select  to  buy.  The  person  need  not 
know  that  his  writing  is  to  be  analyzed,

and  he  is  thus  not  under  emotional  stress 
for  this  reason.  The  minimum  specimen 
should  be  25  to  50  words,  with  name  and 
address.  A  longer  specimen  is  desirable, 
and  there  should  be  several  specimens 
written  at  different  times  if  the  analysis  is 
to  be  comprehensive  and  of  the  greatest 
accuracy  obtainable.  The  age  and  sex  ot 
the  person  should  be  known  to  the  analyst. 
He  should  also  be  informed  if  the  the  per- 
son is  left  handed.  These  recjuirements  are 
not  imperative  but  they  add  to  the  accuracy 
and  value  of  the  analysis. 

The  experienced  analyst  sees  a  Portrait 
of  Character  Traits  in  a  specimen  of  writ- 
ing. Outstanding  traits  are  readily  evident, 
and  others  become  evident  on  study.  This 
Portrait,  of  course,  gives  much  more  infor- 
mation with  greater  accuracy  than  a  photo- 
graph of  the  person.  It  enables  one  to 
know  people  better.  An  analysis  cannot  be 
expected  to  be  100  per  cent  accurate  or 
complete.  Personality  is  much  too  complex 
for  this.  Neither  is  the  Rorschach  or  any 
other  projective  technique  or  the  I.Q., 
complete  or  perfect. 

More  Information  Available 

In  fact  all  methods  together,  including 
handwriting  analysis,  do  not,  of  course, 
and  probably  never  will  closely  approach 
a  100  per  cent  diagnosis.  We  are  explor- 
ing the  human  mind  and  not  the  physical. 
However,  a  review  of  recent  scientific  lit- 
erature reveals  that  many  openminded  psy- 
chologists believe  that  handwriting  anal- 
ysis seems  destined  to  take  an  equal  place 
among  the  other  projective  techniques  for 
personality  diagnosis.  Readers  desiring 
further  information  should  consult  papers 
in  such  journals  as  Character  and  Person- 
ality, journal  of  Abnormal  ami  Social  Psy- 
chology, American  journal  of  Psychiatry, 
both  the  Third  and  Fourth  Mental  Meas- 
urements Yearbooks,  in  addition  to  the 
books  listed  below  and  the  hundreds  of 
scientific  articles  and  the  other  books  avail- 
able. 

Assuming  the  required  training  and  ex- 
perience, the  most  important  factor  in  the 
selection  and  administration  of  personnel 


is  personality.  Securing  valid  and  reliable 
information  regarding  character  traits  has 
been  most  dillicult.  In  applications,  ques- 
tionnaires, and  interviews,  the  ajiplicant 
naturally  "puts  his  best  foot  forward."  He 
selects  references  believed  to  be  favorable. 
Independent  investigations  also  have  their 
limitations  in  determining  the  actual  in- 
herent characteristics  of  an  individual. 
This  applies  to  applicants  for  positions 
from  caretake  rto  president.  The  traits  re- 
quired vary  with  the  type  of  position,  and 
there  seems  to  be  need  for  a  more  careful 
and  extensive  exploration  and  definition  of 
the  specific  requirements  for  different  types 
of  positions.  Handwriting  analysis  can  aid 
in  making  this  possible.  Present  methods 
of  evaluation  are  known  to  fall  short  many 
times.  Practical  use  of  handwriting  anlysis 
has  been  found  to  have  dollars  and  cents 
value  in  Europe  and  to  some  extent  in  this 
country  in  the  selection  and  administration 
of  both  professional  and  business  person- 
nel. 

Forgers  Leave  Clues 
There  are  other  definite  uses  in  both 
police  and  court  work.  Analysis  can  aid 
in  the  detection  of  inherent  criminal  tend- 
encies and  thus  be  of  direct  value  in  the 
identification  of  more  probable  suspects  by 
detectives.  One  type  of  handwriting  anal- 
ysis has  long  been  used  as  one  of  the  tools 
in  the  detection  of  forgeries,  although  in 
one  sense  this  is  a  less  extensive  and  less 
difficult  application  of  handwriting  anal- 
ysis in  consideration  of  its  total  potential. 
Even  expert  forgers  usually  imitate  the 
more  noticeable  features  of  the  writing, 
but  they  leave  clues  in  smaller  detailed 
features  in  the  writing  which  they  cannot 
eliminate  because  these  features  are  expres- 
sions of  their  own  personality  traits.  Thus 
one  who  had  studied  handwriting  anaylsis 
with  the  object  of  identifying  character 
traits  might  seem  to  be  in  a  better  position 
to  m,ike  identification  of  a  forger  than  one 
who  had  studied  analysis  with  the  sole  ob- 
jective of  identifying  forgery.  Lawyers 
have  a  problem  regarding  the  dependabil- 
ity of  their  own  clients.  Also  additional  in-

formation  on  the  personal  characteristics 
of  the  witness  on  the  stand  is  distinctly 
useful  to  the  cross  examining  attorney. 

Police  administration  has  the  same  prob- 
lem as  other  employers  in  selecting  de- 
|iendablc  patrolmen  and  others,  and  in 
most  effectively  placing  them  in  the  posi- 
tion best  suited  to  the  man. 

There  are  other  uses  for  handwriting 
analysis  for  police,  court,  and  social  work. 
It  can  be  directly  helpful  in  dealing  with 
marriage  problems  and  other  family  prob- 
lems. More  concrete  information  regarding 
the  personal  characteristics  of  the  indivi- 
duals concerned  may  frequently  be  one  key 
to  effective  counselling.  It  may  also  be  an 
effective  aid  in  the  inevitable  adjustments 
after  marriage,  thus  helping  to  prevent 
marriage  and  family  problems.  It  can  help 
in  situations  with  problem  children  in  both 
home  and  school.  Self  analysis  can  help 
in  personal  problems  and  adjustment  to 
environment.  It  can  aid  in  many  types  of 
human  relations.  Use  of  handwriting  anal- 
ysis in  vocational  guidance  is  a  corollary 
to  personnel  selection  and  administration. 

Vocational  Guidance 

Administrative  problems  with  employ- 
ees many  times  result  from  the  clash  of  two 
personalities.  Additional  information  on 
character  traits  would  naturally  aid  in  the 
solution  of  such  a  problem.  Analysis  has 
value  in  the  field  of  credit  rating.  A  phase 
of  vocational  guidance  is  the  screening  of 
college  students,  more  particularly  for  dif- 
ferent types  of  professions  such  as,  for 
instance,  engineering,  mathematics,  art, 
music,  dentistry,  and  police  science.  Anal- 
ysts with  the  needed  background  can  be 
effective  in  this  area.  This  should  receive 
particular  consideration  in  the  present  ed- 
ucational situation. 

At  least  one  authority  in  the  field  who 
has  published  many  papers  and  books  and 
who  has  had  long  practical  experience  is 
reported  to  have  used  handwriting  anal- 
ysis to  make  reasonably  valid  predictions 
of  intelligence,  similar  to  I.Q.  measure- 
ments, although  it  has  ordinarily  been  used

more  in  the  iield  of  personality  diagnosis 
and  identification  of  character  traits.  Hand- 
writing analysis  is  used  by  some  psychia- 
trists to  materially  speed  up  diagnosis.  In 
general,  handwriting  analysis  is  reported 
to  have  been  used  more  extensively  in 
Switzerland  than  the  Rorschach.  When  the 
professional  analyst  finds  evidence  of 
either  physical  or  mental  illness  he  recom- 
mends that  the  client  consult  an  M.D.  or 
a  psychiatrist.  He  may  do  consulting  and 
counseling  work  in  other  siuations  pro- 
vided he  has  the  requisite  training  and 
experience. 

Room  For  Progress 
Like  other  projective  techniques  and 
other  fields,  there  is  room  for  prggress. 
Many  phases  of  chemistry  have  been  rev- 
olutionized during  the  writer's  lifetime. 
In  1915  the  atom  was  "known"  to  be  in- 
divisible, the  ultimate  particle  of  matter. 
Today  the  papers,  magazines,  and  TV  are 
full  of  stories  regarding  the  results  of 
splitting  the  atom.  From  recent  reports 
there  appear  to  have  been  rather  marked 
changes  in  psychiatry  regarding  the  con- 
cept of  the  nature  of  mental  illness,  and 
the  recommendation  that  the  old  favorite 
terms  such  as  schizophrenic,  psychosis  and 
others  be  discarded  in  favor  of  the  concept 
that  "all  mental  illness  essentially  is  of  the 
same  quality,  but  it  differs  quantitatively." 
Also  the  effectiveness  of  some  therapeutic 
treatments  has  been  seriously  questioned. 
It  is  difficult  to  understand  the  preju- 
dice shown  toward  handwriting  analysis 
by  some  who  have  had  little  or  no  training 
and  no  actual  personal  experience  in  using 
this  particular  projective  technique.  It  is 
easier  to  understand  why  some  individuals 
seem  to  instinctively  react  against  hand- 
writing analysis  possibly  because  of  a  fear 
of  the  unknown  or  a  reluctance  to  face 
squarely  the  information  that  may  be  made 
available.  It  is  logical  to  recommend  that 
methods  of  personality  diagnosis  for 
which  the  a  priori  evidence  is  very  good, 
and  which  is  supported  by  much  practical 
experience  and  research,  such  as  handwrit- 
ing analysis,  should  be  utilized  and  further 
studied.  We  should  not  ignore  or  neglect 
this  useful  projective  technique  which  has 
as  much  and  possibly  more  potential  than 
any  presently  known. 

Europe  Uses  Graphology 
Why  handwriting  analysis  has  not  been 
more  intensively  studied  and  used  in  this 
country,  as  it  has  been  in  Europe,  is  very 
difficult  to  understand.  Research  work  such 
as  that  reported  by  Hull  and  Montgomery 
in  1919  was  poorly  designed  and  con- 
trolled. One  with  an  adequate  background 
in  handwriting  analysis,  or  in  psychology, 
would  have  predicted  that  this  experiment 
would  show  a  low,  or  perhaps  negative, 
coefficient  of  correlation.  It  actually  shows

primarily  that  the  ()ldta.shioned  graphol- 
ogy of  Michon,  long  abandoned  by  mod- 
ern graphology,  produced  results  of  low 
validity  and  reliability.  The  writer  has 
many  times  ventured  the  statement  that  if 
one  half  the  money  and  time  which  has 
been  spent  on  the  Rorschach  since  1921, 
had  rather  been  spent  on  the  long  estab- 
lished projective  technique  of  handwriting 
analysis  we  would  have  a  method  of  much 
greater  value. 

Modern  Methods  Must  be  Used 

Police  administrators  and  others  should 
make  sure  that  they  are  actually  using  mod- 
ern handwriting  analysis,  graphology, 
which  has  been  psychologically  developed 
and  advanced  much  beyond  the  old-fash- 
ioned "signs  equals  trait"  type  which  is 
psychologically  questionable  and  which 
may  be  taught  by  mail  order  courses.  They 
should  employ  analysts  trained  by  the 
methods  described  and  summarized  by  the 
books  and  papers  to  which  reference  is 
here  made.  Handwriting  analysis  is  taught 
in  most  European  Universities  and  in  some 
American  Universities  and  accredited  col- 
leges by  men  with  a  psychological  back- 
ground. 

Handwriting  has  a  marked  potential  for 
various  purposes.  It  can  be  rather  easily 
used  to  supplement  other  methods  of  per- 
sonal and  personality  evaluation.  At  pres- 
ent it  supplements  but  does  not  replace 
other  methods  also  long  in  use.  Its  value 
and  use  have  long  been  neglected  in  this 
country.  Based  on  many  years  in  the  criti- 
cal evaluation  of  a  subject  while  directing 
scientific  research,  and  following  some 
years  of  critical  study  and  use  of  hand- 
writing analysis,  the  writer  has  become 
progressively  more  convinced  of  its  value 
and  usefulness. 


Police  Science  Can  Lead 
He  has  yet  to  learn  of  a  person  who  has 
an  adequate  background  of  training  in- 
cluding psychology  and  has  intensively 
studied  the  subject  and  had  adequate  ex- 
perience in  making  analyses  over  a  period 
of  years,  who  is  not  likewise  convinced. 
More  uniformly  fixed  and  accepted  theor- 
ies of  personality  would  give  handwriting 
analysis  a  firmer  base  on  which  to  work. 
Let  psychologists,  psychiatrists,  sociolo- 
gists, and  other  applied  professions  make 
profitable  use  of  this  useful  tool.  At  its 
present  level  it  can  net  important  results 
in  many  situations.  Police  Science  could 
well  lead  in  the  further  development  and 
practical  utilization  of  a  modern  projective
