The problem is that there is no universally accepted definition of that term. It is agreed that it means no frills or unnecessary programs, but there's a wide variety of opinion as to what constitutes a frill or an unnecessary program. In the Sheriff's Department we have taken the position that "spirit of 13 ", as far as law enforcement is concerned, means elimination of all programs and activities not directly related to basic police service. We therefore have not budgetted for some programs dear to the hearts of many citizens. For instance, in addition to the substantial reductions already made in management staff, we plan to operate without community relations officers and school resource officers. Officers won't be as readily available for speeches and presentations before schools, clubs, and civic groups. Attendance at inter- agency meetings will be carefully screened and possibly curtailed. Some programs in the jail having no bearing on security or inmate health and safety will no longer be funded. We agree that each of these programs had considerable merit; otherwise we wouldn't have established them in the first place. But they are things we can do without, and the only way we could retain them would be to reduce basic services; fewer patrol officers to respond to calls; fewer detectives to conduct follow -up investigations; fewer jail officers to ensure both officer and inmate safety. By eliminating these programs, we have been able to submit to the Board of Supervisors a bare - bones, no frills budget; one which we feel can't be reduced another dollar; but which we feel will enable us to keep our response time to calls at a reasonable level, and our apprehension and conviction rate high enough that we can continue to reduce the crime rate in the unincorporated areas of the county. We trust that readers of the Sheriff's Review, as responsible citizens of the community, will continue to lend us their support and cooperation, and will understand that while we may not be able to provide the variety of service we have in the past, we're doing the best we can with the resources available, and sincerely feel we're following the "spirit of 13".

You can either take the necessary steps now —or someone else will do it for you later —more specifically, the government and courts. Federal and state laws are quite specific and inflexible when someone dies without a will. Taxes can take a big bite out of your estate before it ever reaches your beneficiaries.

We hope it will help you, our readers and the people we serve, to better understand the problems we face in attempting to provide an acceptable level of police service. With the suspicion of and lack of trust in public offi- cials so prevalent today, in all levels of gov- ernment, it is more important than ever that you understand our problems; that you be able to tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys."

No doubt most of those whose real estate taxes were substantially reduced by Proposi- tion 13 look upon it as the greatest thing to come along since the homeowner's exemp- tion. And after almost a year under its budget- ary restrictions, a superficial analysis seems to confirm that premise. Thanks to the chari- table doling out to local governments of a few billion dollars that had accumulated in the state treasury in the past few years, the promise that essential services would not be reduced has, so far, been pretty well kept. All that means, of course, is that instead of paying for such services from current real estate taxes, we are paying for them with money previously collected from us without justifi- cation .by the state, via unrealistic rates for certain state taxes. Had we not been required to pay far too much in state taxes over the past several years, our real estate taxes wouldn't have become such a burden, and there would have been no need for such a drastic remedy as Proposition 13. Unfortunately, most non - essential services are also still being provided, again thanks to the availability of state money, or rather, our money in the state treasury. What will happen when so- called state money is no longer avail- able; when local governments will be forced to work out their budgets on their oven, with 11 only the limited funds allowed under Prop- osition 13? No one knows. It is the prediction of this writer that most of the non - essential services will continue to be provided, even if it means drastic reductions in essential serv- ices. This prediction is based on the fact, as pointed out in last year's Review editorial, before Proposition 13 was approved, that proponents of radical social programs are much more vocal and dedicated in promoting their causes than are the average citizens who think most of the local tax dollar should be spent on such mundane necessities as fire and police protection, basic education, and road maintenance. Backers of special programs attend meetings of local legislative bodies, present well prepared and logical, if some- times emotional, arguments, and often get everything they ask for simply because there is no one present to argue against them. For that reason we feel Proposition 13 is a bad bit of legislation, even if it did result in a substantial reduction in the average citizen's tax bill. It reminds us of affluent parents who send their spoiled son away to college, pro- vide him a generous allowance, furnish no instructions whatsoever as to how the money is to be spent, then expect that most of it will be used to buy nourishing food, rent proper living quarters, and provide necessary books and school supplies, basic transportation, and wholesome recreation. After a while the son begins periodically to ask for an increase, claiming he can't live on the amount pro- vided. For a time the parents grant the in- creases without question, but eventually the family budget is strained to the point the college allowance is a hardship, so they begin to investigate. To their amazement they find a substantial portion of the money is going for junk food, fraternity parties, upkeep on a fancy sports car, and generally riotous living. Still without providing any guidelines as to how the allowance is to be used, the parents simply cut it in half, naively assuming the remainder will be spent on nourishing food, proper housing, necessary books and school supplies, basic transportation and wholesome recreation; that the son will automatically give up the junk food, the fraternity parties, the fancy car, and the riotous living.. >t The bank you don* have to think about. SECURITY PACIFIC BANK 12 Anyone who thinks Proposition 13 will, in the long run, work as well as it now appears to be doing may be as naive as those parents. Like many children of affluent parents, a great many politicians are spoiled. They've become so accustomed to wasting public funds on non - essential programs to satisfy the demands of certain special interest groups that it will be difficult for them to change. So difficult, in fact, that they probably won't change without specific, definite, and en- forceable guidelines for public spending. Merely reducing the amount available for them to spend Neill not suddenly endow them with sound fiscal judgment, any more than such treatment will bestow upon the spoiled college student the virtue of thrift. This is not to imply that we don't think tax relief was needed. It was, and is, a very definite need. But Proposition 13, or any other tax limitation measure, will not work in the a ROOFING LICENSE #341895 "OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE" RE- ROOFING NEW ROOFS REPAIR ROOFING SUPPLIES fi I 'I ) NO JOB TOO SMALL FOR US RESIDENTIAL - COMMERCIAL VINYL SIDING - 40-YEAR WARRANTY HIGH QUALITY AT REASONABLE RATES FREE ESTIMATES WOODY MILLER CHUCK MILLER 268 -6123 6950 N.

And we who want our tax money spent on basic necessities and constructive programs must devise a way to ensure that is done, and we must become as loud and insistent as the promoters of far out social programs. An article in this issue will deal ,, ith some of the specific problems created by Proposition 13, and how it is affecting both law enforce- ment in particular and county government in general. It will explain how, in our opinion, some of them are being coped with success- fully, while others are likely to lead to serious problems in the future. Our intent is not to foment a rebellion against the proposition, but simply to make our readers more aware of its shortcomings, and thus be able to insist that its budgetary restrictions be properly utilized.

(1 BLOCK EAST OF MAPLE) 251 -4496 Crime Scene Unknown By SGT. JAMES HAMILTON One of the most interesting, complex, and tragic cases investigated by this department last year involved a kidnapping, a murder, and an automobile theft, none of which occurred in Fresno County. The only related crime A,bich did take place in this jurisdiction was the use of a stolen credit card to purchase a tank of gasoline. But that relatively minor crime sparked an investigation which even- tually involved police agencies in several states scattered from California to Maine, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and a private detective firm. The investigation began here in mid - August when Dr. William Wilson, a physician re- siding and practicing in Madera, contacted this department for assistance in locating his missing 19- year -old son, Eric. The young man lived in Ottawa, Canada, with his mother, she and the doctor having been divorced f or some time. The doctor had recently received from his former wife a letter asking if he'd had any word from Eric, and enclosing a credit card invoice indicating gasoline had been pur- chased by him, at Interstate 5 and Panoche Road near Firebaugh, on July 21, with a credit card issued to her, but carried by him with her permission. She hadn't expected him to be in this area at that time, but when the invoice 15 was returned to her, she noted the Firebaugh address of the service station, checked the map and saw it was near Madera, and assumed he had changed his previously for- mulated plans and decided to visit his father. Eric had left Ottawa earlier in July, enroute to Boulder, Colorado, where he was to attend some type of summer classes f or a few weeks. He was due to register there on July 17. A few days before that date he'd telephoned his mother from North Platte, Nebraska, telling her he was having some minor mechanical difficulty with his Volkswagen van, but that he expected to have it repaired in time to be in Boulder as scheduled. He promised to call again upon his arrival there. That was the last contact she had had with him until she re- ceived the credit card invoice. After receiv- ing it she had telephoned the school. She was told that Eric had telephoned there a day or two before the registration deadline, ex- plained his vehicle trouble, and stated he still planned to be there on time. However, he hadn't arrived or called again. School author- ities had assumed repairs to his vehicle had taken longer than he'd anticipated, that he'd thus missed the registration deadline, and simply returned home without notifying them. "What do you think ?" we asked the doctor. "Would he have just decided to travel around and see the country, and since his mother assumed he was at school, simply not both - ered\to notify her ?" "No way!" the doctor said. "That's why I'm so worried. He'd never have gone off like that without telling his mother." "Kids sometime act on impulse," we point- ed out. "Suppose he did just decide to take a trip. Would he have come as close to Madera as Firebaugh without at least calling you ?" "No, I'm sure he wouldn't. Even though his mother and I have been divorced for a long time, and he lives with her, he and I are still very close. In fact, tve'd made plans that when the classes at Boulder were over, I was going to fly back there, and the two of us were going to drive here in his van, camping and sight- seeing along the way. He was very excited about that; really looking forward to it." "Well, it does seem there's cause for con- cern," we agreed. "And that's not all," the doctor went on. "The license number on the credit card slip is not the one for his van. It's a Texas license, QFW527. And I'm pretty sure the signature isn't his." Dr. Wilson had, prior to contacting this department, talked to officers in Madera County. They had expressed concern, but in the absence of any indication that the missing youth had ever been in Madera County, they lacked authority to take any definite action. They had checked the Texas license number through the computer, and had found it belonged on a Toyota station wagon regis- tered to a Nicolaz Z. Garcia of Schertz, Texas. Further conversation with the doctor re- vealed that Eric was a generally responsible young man, but somewhat immature and naive. As his father described him, he was inclined to be helpful even to strangers, and was seldom suspicious of the motives or intentions of others. it was quite likely, the doctor said, that he'd picked up a hitchhiker Alanis PATROL SERVICE Armed & Unarmed Strikes `� _ ." qp Uniformed Private Officers �� ` Construction Sites For Nightclubs Stores - Warehouses Parties Shopping Centers Conventions Etc.

"I wish we could be more encouraging," we told him, "but it doesn't look very hopeful." "I realize that," he said. "I've already accepted the probability that he's dead. I just want to find his body, and the person who killed him." Before contacting either this department or the officers in Madera County, Dr. Wilson, the boy's mother, and a brother had already done a great deal of detective work on their own. The doctor and another son had met in Colorado and tried to backtrack Eric from Boulder to North Platte. They'd checked with hospitals, police agencies, and Volkswagen dealers and foreign car repair shops all along the route.

But none of those efforts had produced any encouragement whatso- ever. At this point we were reasonably certain Eric had met with foul play, probably kid- napping and murder.

Garcia didn't know the buyer's address, but he had the telephone number of his place of employment. We than contacted the San Antonio Police Department and asked them to attempt to locate the place of employment through the telephone number, and question Enriques. Either they were unable to do so, or they decided the information thus developed would be of no interest to us, for we didn't hear from them. Later on in the investigation, after the information we wanted from En- riques became irrelevant, we learned from other sources that Enrique had wrecked the vehicle, and that the license plates had ap- parently been stolen from it after it had been towed to a wrecking yard. We seemed to have reached a dead end. We were still sure that somewhere between North Platte, Nebraska and Firebaugh, Eric's body ALLSTATE CHARTER LINES INC.

At that time we didn't know about the stolen plates, and we couldn't be sure it was the van for which gasoline had been pur- chased in Firebaugh. We still didn't have any evidence as to where the murder, if indeed there had been a murder, had been commit- ted, so there was no other police agency we could even contact for assistance, much less turn the investigation over to. Perhaps we wouldn't have been criticized too severely if, at that point, we'd merely have written a crime report on the use of the stolen credit card, a miscellaneous report to cover the related circumstances, and filed them away to be available for use in whatever type of investigation would be conducted when, «here, and if Eric's body would be found.

Because the only known crime was use of a stolen credit card, the investigation was turned over to me, since I'm in charge of the fraud and forgery detail. I was instructed to go as far as I could with it, and try to develop information which would justify another agency's initiating an investigation. We had already been in contact with Colorado and Nebraska police agencies, to see if they had any unidentified bodies on their hands. They hadn't, and ,ve'd been unable to give them any information on which to base a search. The first thing I did was contact the manager of the service station where the credit card had been used, and find out which attendants had been on duty on July 21. I then went to the station and contacted there, Itoping they'd be able to remember filling the CUT RATE ELECTRONICS Transistors, Capacitors, Resistors, Fire Alarms, & 1000's of Other Parts for the Experimenter, Ham & Manufacturer Phone 264 -9952 1909 Tuolumne St. FRESNO 19 tank of a vehicle from Texas on that date. I knew the possibility either of them could remember was extremely remote; only if something out of the ordinary had happened at the time could there have been any expec- tation of their remembering one vehicle out of the hundreds that pull in off Interstate 5 at the height of the tourist season. One attendant recognized his initial on the invoice, and said that indicated he'd served that particular customer, but he had no recollection of having done so. My next step was to contact the local office of the FBI and talk to Special Agent Jess Rogers. He was interested and sympathetic with our problem, and stated he'd do all he could, but pointed out that with no definite knowledge that the van had been stolen and taken across a state line, there was no indica- tion of federal jurisdiction.

We also had information from Dr. Wilson that Eric's mother had reported his unexplained absence to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and that that agency had been in contact Nvith the FBI. We hoped Rogers could find out what progress they had made, if any. The results of that query were discouraging. Rogers was able to find that the FBI office in Omaha had received a routine query regard- ing Eric, but because they had no legal cause to launch an investigation, nothing had come of it. Rogers then interviewed Dr. Wilson so he could get the story firsthand. After their con- versation he agreed there was definite cause to believe Eric had met with foul play, that it seemed quite likely the Dyer Act had been violated, assuming it was the van into which gasoline had been delivered in Firebaugh, and promised to do all he could to get FBI Saluting the Men and Women of the Fresno County Sheriff's Office PRODUCERS COTTON OIL CO.

A few days later Dr. Wilson learned that Eric had had in his possession when he left home about $700 in American Express traveler's checks. On July 24 the American Express office in New York had received a telephone call from a person who identified himself as Eric Wilson, reported his traveler's checks had been stolen, and requested reim- bursement. The caller claimed he didn't know the numbers of the checks, but had purchased them in Nova Scotia, and was calling from somewhere in Iowa. The company refused to honor such a flimsy claim, and the caller made no further attempt. While that information was of no direct value in our attempt to find out what had happened to Eric, it did serve to reinforce our theory that he had met with foul play. The next bit of information, which did turn out to be quite significant, was a telephone POOLS THE CUSTOM POOL BUILDER License 4259953 7 ARNESON Sweep 20 YEARS' EXPERIENCE NO DOWN - FINANCING AVAILABLE PERSONAL SUPERVISION - BY OWNER Enjoy the Best of California Living in Your Own Back Yard!

She had been contacted by the Brunswick, Maine, police department, inquiring about a Volkswagen van possibly belonging to her. They had arrested two persons who had pos- session of the vehicle, which bore Texas license plates QFW527 —the same number used in the credit card purchase at Firebaugh. The arrestees admitted having stolen it. After finding that the Texas plates didn't belong on the vehicle, and getting no help from the two persons arrested as to what type of plates they had replaced, Brunswick officers had con- tacted the Volkswagen factory in Germany, and traced the vehicle through the importer and the dealer to Eric's mother. She had gone to Brunswick and definitely identified the van as Eric's. I then telephoned Detective Charles Stephens of the Brunswick Police Depart- ment, who interviewed the pair arrested in the van, Raymond Hatch and Jerry Contreras. Caring for homeless children throughout the world. THE IAiNTSTRY OF REV. AL - �ditaQGf Irmo 10 _ - r'¢ ,;� 1921 East Belmont Ave. Fresno, Calif. 21 Their story had been a rambling account of Hatch and a person named Ronald Barrett stealing a car in Brunswick about July 11, picking up a third person named Bertram Davis, and being arrested and incarcerated in the town of Wyoming, Pennsylvania on July 12, of ter being involved in an automobile accident. The xlext day, according to Hatch, he and Davis were released from jail. From there they hitchhiked to Texas, where, on Interstate 10 between Houston and San Antonio, they were picked up by the driver of the van. At that time he allegedly had with him another hitchhiker, name unknown, from Florida. From Texas they traveled to Nebras- ka, where they picked up Contreras. At a rest stop in that state Davis and the driver, whose name they hadn't learned, got into an argument and left the vehicle. Hatch and Contreras drove away and returned to Bruns- wick. No mention was made of what hap- pened to the hitchhiker from Florida. BRITZ CHEMICAL CO.

Mendocino, Parlier 646 -2803 11856 Road 29, Madera 674 -0913 Part of Hatch's story sounded plausible, but we didn't believe the part about being picked up in Texas. Eric had had no reason to go a roundabout way through Texas enroute from Ottawa to Boulder, even if he'd had time. It seemed more likely that Hatch and Contreras had first taken possession of the van in Nebraska, then drove to Texas where the stolen license plates were installed, proceed- ed west to California as indicated by the July 21 gasoline purchase in Firebaugh, and then headed back east, stopping in Iowa on the 24th to telephone American Express and try to collect on the traveler's checks. They'd ap- parently read that company's advertisements about how easy it is to arrange reimburse- ment for lost or stolen checks, and decided that would be less risky than trying to forge and cash them. Either that, or they'd already cashed all of them, and were trying to collect twice. When we heard of the arrest of Hatch and Contreras, and the recovery of the van, we at first thought the case was finally on its way to a solution. Although they hadn't admitted killing Eric, they had told a story which cer- tainly indicated guilty knowledge of what had happened to him. But we soon found the situation was still as frustrating as it had been before the arrest. All we actually had on them was possession of a stolen vehicle, and for some reason we never understood, the Bruns- wick police weren't taking that very seriously. Stephens told us that the pair could be held 40 LANES AT To BOW L only on misdemeanor charges, for a maxi- mum of thirty days. Any state willing to assume responsibility could have placed a hold on them for investigation of murder, but we still didn't know for certain there had been a murder, much less where the crime had been committed.

However, they weren't par- ticularly enthusiastic, apparently feeling that as long as the local police agency that had arrested them wasn't interested in prosecut- ing them for a felony, there was no point in their becoming involved. kleanwhile, we learned that Eric's mother had hired a private detective firin to do some additional checking, particularly in Nebraska and Colorado, hoping to find someone with pertinent and helpful information.

Winter comes early in the part of the country where Eric had disappeared, and we realized that if we didn't find out soon where his body was hidden, the investigation would be seriously hampered until spring. By now Brunswick Police Department had furnished photo- graphs of Hatch and Contreras, and they were shown to the attendants on duty at the Fire - baugh service station on the day the gasoline purchase was made. Neither of them could remember having seen the subjects. We hadn't really expected them to. Rogers had managed to get the Hartford, Connecticut, FBI office interested to the extent they had located and questioned Ber- tram Davis, whom Hatch claimed had been involved in a quarrel with the driver of the van when he and Contreras stole it. Davis told them he and Hatch had gone west, rather than south, when they'd left Pennsylvania upon their release from jail. This seemed to confirm our theory that they had gone to Nebraska, taken possession of the van there, and then gone to Texas, but that's about all we did learn from that interrogation. Instead of question- ing Davis extensively at that time, or holding him for further investigation, the agents made arrangements for him to return at a later date for a polygraph examination. He didn't keep the appointment. By that time FBI agents in Portland, Maine, FRUITS & FLAVORS for the FOOD SERVICE INDUSTRY LYON: LYONS MAGNUS GENERAL OFf ICES AND MANUFACTURING PLANT 3789 E.

He repeated the story he'd told the Brunswick police, and admitted having been in the van on July 21, but claimed he wasn't in California on that date. Meanwhile, some of the traveler's checks were located by the private detective Nvork- ing on the case, James Conway. One had been cashed in Colorado, possibly by Eric, and three in the area of Phoenix, Arizona. Finally, the bits and pieces of the case had begun to come together. New York agents interviewed a young lady named Kelly Mohr, of Sala- manca, New York, whose name had been found on some books and papers in the van. She accounted for their presence there by explaining that about July 25 she and a friend were hitchhiking near Erie, Pennsylvania, and were picked up by two young men in a Volks- wagen van. Her description of them matched that of Hatch and Contreras, and she said they had Canadian money and travelers checks issued in Canada. This bit of new material gave Portland agents reason to re- question Hatch and Con- treras, but the latter, who was a juvenile, had been released. IIe was subsequently located in Brainard, Minnesota. Agents went there to question him, and, now that he was no longer in the same jail as Hatch, he told a decidedly different story. • Contreras stated he was hitchhiking alone sometime after mid -July when he was picked up at a truck stop outside Omaha by Hatch and two other persons, traveling in the Volks- wagen van. Hatch told Contreras one of the others was his partner and the other a hitch- hiker they'd picked up earlier. They drove east, and at a rest stop Hatch and his partner got into an argument, and the partner left. Contreras didn't know, or neglected to say, what they were arguing about. He also claimed he didn't know what happened to the other hitchhiker. He and Hatch resumed the trip east, and Hatch at first told him he'd bought the van in Canada, then later said he'd - A Coffee Shop Kel sItl M Dining Room Banquet Rooms ,I Cocktail Lounge 4061 N.

This time he, too, was more talkative. He gave a formal statement to the effect that about July 15, somewhere in a wooded area on Highway 70 between Grand Junction and Rifle, Colorado, Raymond Hatch had fatally stabbed Eric Wilson.

He admitted the murder had taken place at the time and place described by Davis, but claimed Davis had wielded the knife. Both suspects stated the body was left at the scene. Finally, we had sufficient information for one particular agency to assume responsibil- ity for investigation and prosecution. All the information was turned over to authorities in Mesa County, Colorado, who agreed to con- clude the investigation and file appropriate charges. As of the time of writing, April 1979, the body of Eric Wilson has not been found. Heavy snow prevented a search during the winter, and reports are that heavy spring floods on the Colorado River and its tributar- ies may have moved it, or covered it with silt. There is a good possibility, then, that it will never be found.

It would be interesting if we could provide a chronological resume of the sequence of events from the time the murderers first made contact with Eric until they were finally arrested. 'Trying to do so at this point, however, would be pure speculation. We hope those facts �v ll come out during the trial. In conclusion, there's an irrelevant, but, to me, an extremely interesting coincidence in this case. I was on vacation in November, and early in the month, before Bertram Davis gave his statement disclosing the location of the murder, I went on a hunting trip. Where? To the area of Grand Junction, Colorado. I'd been trying for three months to find out what had happened to Eric Wilson, then I inadvert- ently visited the area where lie met his death. Until his body is found, I will always wonder just how close I came to finding its hiding place. 7 r �,g Lou "Interesting Carpet For Interesting People" BERVENO'CALIFORNIA the beau tiful way fobep. ncal Ventura Acenue, F—ro, Califarnia 93717 BUILDERS EMPORIUM RETAIL - WHOLESALE NEW - USED PLUMBING - ELECTRICAL - HARDWARE - PAINT "We've Got It" 10% discount to all law enforcement personnel 4686 E.

To a casual observer there may not yet appear to be any significant change. We still see patrol cars on the streets, and there has been no drastic rise in the crime rate, so we must still be receiving an acceptable degree of police protection. We haven't heard of any houses burning down because of Proposition 13- induced lay -offs of firemen. We see road crews, garbage truck drivers, and park main- tenance people at work. Our schools and li- braries are still open. Politicians make grandi- ose statements about "increased productiv- ity" and "doing more with ,vhat we have." On the %%,hole, it appears that local government is doing business as usual, which no doubt leads many to suspect that there must have been y;ross negligence in handling of local tax funds before Proposition 13, if after it has gone into al *J 3 =: 0 PUBLIC WAREHOUSE TEMPERATURE CONTROL COMMERCIAL CARLOAD & INDUSTRIAL & POOL CAR STORAGE DISTRIBUTION 2702 S. MAPLE effect we can't tell any difference in services rendered. But there is a difference; not a great one as yet, thanks to the generosity of the state in giving some of our own money back to us, but a definite difference. It's a subtle, creeping difference that may not become glaringly obvious for several years. In this article we point out some of the signs of the inevitable future inadequacy of public services, hoping it will help out readers to better understand the problems local governments face in cop- ing with Proposition 13, and be better pre- pared for the prospect of fewer of, and lesser quality in, the government services we have come to take for granted. First, how has Proposition 13 affected the Fresno County Sheriff's Department? Not at all adversely, one could conclude, since the reversal of a previous continuing rise in the crime rate in the areas we serve, begun a few 0 100,000 Sq. Ft. 45,000 Sq. Ft. Chemical Goods OFFICE RAMP FRESNO 268=4738 31 years earlier, continued throughout 1978 -79. But that conclusion would be wrong. There has been a definite adverse effect on the operation and effectiveness of the depart- ment, to the extent that only a miracle can prevent an eventual corresponding effect on the crime rate. First, there was a reduction in management positions (assistant sheriffs, captains, lieuten- ants) of about 20%. The number of such posi- tions previously authorized had been based on the recommendations of the Peace Of- ficers Standards and Training Commission of the state of California. Using methods and formulae accepted and approved by eminent authorities in the personnel management field, P.O.S.T. had made a thorough study of our department, its functions, responsibilities, and potential, and had recommended a table of organization designed to achieve maxi- mum results from the manpower and other resources available.

Personnel scientists have, based on long -term, in -depth study, devised practical limits for management span of control (num- ber of persons whose activities one is respon- sible for), above which a manager or super- visor cannot function at his best, because he can't do justice to each thing for which he is responsible. Because of the management po- sitions eliminated by Proposition 13, Fresno County Sheriff's Department management personnel now have responsibilities which exceed those recommended limits. Another way to look at it is that it was, in effect, a salary reduction for management, for captains are now doing what assistant sheriffs used to do, lieutenants what captains used to do, and so on down the line. Such a situation is certainly not conducive to good morale, nor is it likely to attract the better qualified people to law enforcement in the future.

SERVICE — PARTS — SALES lie ite step backward in our long journey toward professionalism of law enforcement. The duties and responsibilities of the line officers have been affected to a similar degree. While no one has actually been laid off due to Proposition 13, there has been critical delay in filling vacancies caused by retirement and resignation. This means that some patrol beats have gone uncovered, pa- trol officers haven't been able to devote as much time to certain calls as they should have, and each detective's case load has increased to the point that he can't effectively investigate all the cases assigned to him. Several good officers have resigned to go into other fields of endeavor, no doubt because of the frus- tration and uncertainty resulting from the proposition. And, of course, no new positions have been authorized, nor are they likely to be in the foreseeable future, to keep pace with the stead), population growth in the county.

That may be true in some agencies, but not in the Fresno County Sheriff's De- partment. Someone has to process and file for safekeeping the prodigious amount of paper work that is either required by law, or is necessary for the successful prosecution of a criminal. It is only common sense that clerical specialists should be employed to do such jobs, rather than have deputy sheriffs, whose pay is considerably higher, spend time typing and filing when they should be patrolling the county or investigating crimes. Yet, we lost a few clerical positions, and are likely to lose a few more. We've already seen a few instances wherein a deputy sheriff is spending an in- ordinate amount of time at a typewriter or a file cabinet because of a lack of clerical personnel, and those instances will no doubt become more frequent.

Without the paper work being done, law enforcement can't function, and if we don't have enough clerical personnel, officers will have to do it. Another situation which will eventually seriously hamper our operation is the limita- tion on purchase of equipment, either for replacement of non - serviceable existing items, or additional items. In the same way a family with a tight budget decides to make the old car last another year, vve've been told to make do with what we have. But even the family who can't afford a new car this year may have some hope they'll be able to do so next year. In our situation, there is no such hope in sight. The budgetary limitations im- posed by Proposition 13 are simply too strin- gent and unrealistic.

File cabinets become filled to overflowing with documents that must, by law, be retained and safeguarded. Criminals become more sophisticated, and rules we must follow pertaining to evidence, appre- hension, and detention become more com- plex. Phis means more and better equipment is required, and more time must be expended, to gather evidence for a successful prosecu- tion. Neither the sociologists, the penologists, the clergy, nor the schools are making any head- way in their efforts to eradicate or reduce crime by attacking it at its source. The police are thus as necessary as ever if some measure of protection from the criminal element is to be provided the law abiding citizen. Mean- while, the population continues to increase, which means that even though the percentage who become criminals may remain the same, the actual number of criminals continues to grow.

There are still gardeners at work in the park, but apparently there aren't enough of them to maintain the park in its former immaculate condition. ow4� ' Photo #4 Photo #5 Barrett Jbouor • COLONIAL - MEDITERRANEAN IS PROVINCIAL - TRANSITIONAL 149 No. Fulton St. 3011 E.

Because of Prop- osition 13, there is neither sufficient man- power to adequately patrol the parks as a deterrent, nor to repair the damage within a reasonable time after it occurs. Photo #10— Driving on Fowler Avenue across Olive and looking in either direction, one ksould assume that the county has plenty of money for road widening and resurfacing. Ilmvever, traveling the other way, along Olive Avenue, reveals that the improved portion begins a few hundred yards west of Fo«vler, and ends at Armstrong Avenue, one - half mile to the east. 7 Custom Cabinet Doors 1681 South8rowley and Cabinets Fresno.

We've always had potholes, but it seems there are more of them now, and more time elapses before they are repaired. Then it is usually by patching. Some stretches of road have more square feet of patches than of original surface. And patching is only a temporary remedy. Eventually roads damaged to this degree will. have to be resurfaced. Will there be money available? Photo #10 Photo #11 son my Z; Photo #12 Photos #13, 14, and 15 —And we've also always had to contend with damaged road signs and traffic control devices. Usually, Photo #13 though, in the past they were repaired almost immediately, especially in the case of a stop sign where its absence could cause a fatal accident. To the photographer's knowledge, this damage had been done for several weeks when the pictures were made, and when checked a few weeks later, still hadn't been repaired. One can only assume that because of Proposition 13, there is not enough money to ensure prompt repairs of what may be considered minor damage. Let's try that ex- planation on a relative of someone who is killed by a car running the bent -over and thus invisible stop sign. Photo #14 SONS CONSTRUCTION, INC.

Hopefully, that policy will be maintained, for it's hard to imagine an officer answering a code 3 call (using red lights and siren in responding to an emergency) in a compact. Even full size cars aren't always safe, as indicated by what happened to this one when it was struck from the rear by another vehicle while the officer was stopped at a stop sign. It burst into flames, burning the paint off the righthand side. Fortunately, the officer was able to escape from the burning vehicle without serious injury. Would he have been so lucky had he been patrolling in a compact? But it could come to that.

It is almost as if a separate emergency switch exists inside etien officer which is specially reserved for this type of call. When the switch is activated, police officers rally to the aid of one of their own to a degree unlike any other profession. Such a response is a tribute to the tremendous bond of brotherhood among police officers; tbev all face the stark realization that at any particular moment "that call could be for me." 11tis common identity and awareness of mutual problems may be a relatively un- tapped resource for dealing with serious personal problems associated with the polic- ing job, as well as the professional dangers. 55 By ROGER L.

Unfortunately, ours has become a luxury we can no longer afford. The counseling program was a recent victim of Proposition 13. The Problem Many police officers are in trouble today and need help. The trouble is caused by stress overload, and the need is as urgent as the patrol car broadcast requesting assistance. Current literature on the police profession abounds with articles discussing police prob- lems, such as divorce, alcoholism, and suicide. The April 1978 issue of The Police Chief is devoted to an examination of the "Pitfalls of Policing." Its editorial declares: "The impact of psychological stress ap- pears to be reaching crisis proportions and mani. f ests itself in forms of behavior ranging from reduced job effectiveness to suicide, an act constituting the ultimate lass for the off icer's family as well as for the department and the community."' A recent and controversial book by a police psychiatrist claims that 35 percent of the police officers presently employed are psy- chologically unsuited for their jobs. Not only are they unfit for duty, according to Dr. Edward E. Shev, a San Francisco area police psychiatrist, but the }, are dangerous. Dr. Shev goes on to say that an additional 60 percent of today's police officers, although basically sound from the psychiatric point of view, are often in need of some sort of guidance in order to recognize their personal weaknesses and to overcome the adverse effects of job pressures.' Psychologists from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health have been studying the effects of job stress on police officers for several years. They con- clude that: " ... police work becomes one of the few jobs which has a potent adverse effect on the total life of the worker. That is, the police- ThornaS W hristy CONSULTANTS.

The Problem Areas One major stress area involves the basic philosophical question, "What is the role of the police in today's society ?" Most of those \vho have analyzed the police role have noted that on the street level the job is fraught with contradictions and inconsistencies.'' Except FRESNO PLUMBING & HEATING CO.

Blackstone Ave. for general statements like "enforce the law and maintain order," the duties of the police officer depend upon such diverse factors as the oath of office, the law, court decisions, departmental policy, informal quota systems, the political climate, community pressures, common sense, and the personality of the chief of police.5 However, police officers who patrol the street find that the legalistic solu- tions to human problems are often inap- propriate, and common sense solutions are frequently second guessed. The role conflict and ambiguity inherent in the job itself are compounded by the dis- torted, fictionalized media image of the police officer, creating unreal expectations in both citizens and recruits. Many new police officers are genuinely confused and mistaken about the nature of the job. Dr. Martin Reiser, Los Angeles Police Department psychologist, refers to one "macho" form of mistaken role identity as the "John Wayne Syndrome. "' SHAW -SIXTH SQUARE Jack J. Edwards - Jack L.

A second major problem area concerns the environment in which the police officer must function successfully. The nature of his work takes the officer into sections of the jurisdic- tion where he is most likely to experience frustration and anxiety in his interactions with people. Even after considerable training and street experience, an officer may often feel ill at ease and disoriented when handling calls in these areas. He tries to deal with serious matters among people who possess a life style and value system different from his own, and because of this, may suffer from a condition which sociologists term "culture shock." Cul- tural shock, applied to police work by Victor FOODLAND MARKETS OF FRESNO "WHERE SHOPPING IS A PLEASURE" VIE -DEL COMPANY 1 1903 South Chestnut 834 -2525 FRESNO, CALIFORNIA Strecher in his book, The Environment of Law Enforcement,' is the discomfort one feels `when he moves from one culture to another and cannot accurately interpret, pre- dict, and influence the behavior of those around him. There is a general loss of familiar cues and symbols, such as words, gestures, facial expressions, customs, etc. This discom- fort and social strangeness often predispose the person (in this case, the officer) to the development of negative attitudes about the people, and he begins to anticipate unpleas- ant interactions with those persons who are unlike himself. Harvard University Professor James Q. Nilson describes it as follows: "The working environment of the police is not only charged with emotion and suspicion, it is often, in the eyes of the police, hostile and uncoopera- tive."9 Real and perceived threats from the outside mix with the interdependence and mutual SIERRA HOSPITAL FRESNO CONVALESCENT HOSPITAL SIERRA VIEW CONVALESCENT HOSPITAL WILBUR - ELLIS CO. RED -TOP FARM CHEMI(:ALS 442 -1220 FRESNO 58 support from inside the police profession to encourage formation of a separate police subculture. The policeman's world can be- come insulated from the outside world by a cohesive, high- identity peer group which can exert powerful influence over the officer's conduct and behavior. Another area of concern deals with the officer's personal life. The job can dominate his life, both on duty and off. Time spent away from home slowly increases, and many police officers become so absorbed in their work that they become a kind of "worka- holic." Shift work and the police subculture combine to limit an officer's friends to asso- ciates only. "Shop talk" commands conver- sation at work and home, and spouses find themselves competing with what appears to be their mates' first love —the job. Add to these problems the officer's greater tempta- tion for sexual infidelity, the development of what appears to be a coldness and hardness in BOYS MARKET GROCERIES • MEAT • PRODUCE BEER • WINES • LIQUORS COMPLETE VARIETY DEPARTMENT C STREET, FRESNO 237 -0896 NELSON CRANE & SIGN SERVICE DESIGN NEON & PLASTIC FABRICATION INSTALLATION CRANE SERVICE CALIFORNIA CONTRACTORS LICENSE #250227 3147 GOLDEN STATE BLVD. • FRESNO • 233 -1543 BRENTWOOD ESTATES built by WESTCAL, INC.

Police departments researching marriage failures among their officers find widely varying results. Dr. Martin Reiser reported in 1972 that the Seattle Police Department dis- covered 60 percent of its officers were di- vorced during the first three years on the force. In contrast, the Los Angeles Police Department experienced a five percent di- vorce rate during the first three years on the job, and found 21.1 percent of the total force in divorced status.11 The Salt Lake City Police Department was said to have a four percent divorce rate. The Tacoma, Washington, Police Department has been reported as having 82 percent of its force divorced, and the San Jose, California, Police .. OFFICE EQUIPMENT CO.

A fourth area of stress overload for police officers is the situational crisis. Many officers experience trauma after being involved in a highly charged situation, such as a shooting. Some find it difficult to cope with certain instances of injury and death, and there are numerous occasions when police officers become very depressed by instances of vic- timization, injustice, and public apathy. Some officers get too deeply and personally in- SINCERE BEST WISHES Mr. and Mrs. Aram "Shorty" Peters In Appreciation To The Sheriff's Department SHERMAN THOMAS ENTERPRISES volved in certain cases, while those involved in undercover assignments experience in- tensely stressful ordeals. The situational crisis is a critical, high - stress time when the officer urgently needs help."' In addition to these major problem areas, police officers are frustrated by numerous organizational factors, ranging from poor equipment to lack of administrative sup - port." Some officers cannot adjust to a department's disciplinary action; others who are disillusioned are often tempted to take advantage of corruption opportunities. 17 Af- ter a prolonged period of time in frustrating and apparently hopeless conditions, many officers experience "bum-out" 18 and culture fatigue,19 finding it difficult to cope with the boredom and inactivity of some assignments. One study reported by Wayne C. Richard and Ronald D. Fell reveals police officers in the State of Tennessee to have an incidence of health problems somewhat higher than other occupations." (See Hans Selve's "Diseases of Adaption. ")21 They also have significantly higher rates of premature deaths than the general population and rank third among occupations in suicide rates.22 The kinds of personal problems confront- ing police officers range from mild mal- adjustments to severe disturbances. As with `the general population, the majority of these problems do not require hospitalization or intensive psychotherapy; however, most do &:=,, BE �N ^` pON' 6 `E C t R t C 486-5572 1509 N.

But the increase in police personal problems suggests that an additional dimension in counseling is needed. Most major police departments have initi- ated psychological service units staffed by psychologists and other mental health pro- fessionals. While being on the department payroll and under the direction of the chief, they still possess a certain amount of auton- omy.

Contact is usually on a voluntary basis; however, many police administrators also encourage super- visors to refer officers with problems. Coun- seling in the unit is conducted on a confiden- tial basis —in accordance with professional ethics and with no report furnished to the department administrators. In addition to counseling, many psycho- logical service units participate in a wide range of administrative and operational func- tions, such as recruit selection, screening and promotion boards, training programs, re- search projects, liaison with mental health agencies, management consultations and field emergencies (suicide, hostage, etc.). Some are also involved in the psychological profiling of criminals and the use of hypnosis as an in- vestigative aid. Department psychologists Have noted a number of problems in their work with police,"" one of which is maintaining client confidentiality. Some police administrators want feedback on problem officers, or oc- casionally, an officer may be dangerous and his condition should be communicated to his ,,superiors. Police psychologists say the best way to handle these problems is to establish clear ground rules with the department ad- RAY BOLDING TEXACO SERVICE Complete Car Care Fresno & McKinley 268 -1172 FRESNO FRICTION MATERIAL CO.

Another problem involves the acceptance of the psychologist by the officers. Police psychologists note they are initially distrusted by officers and suggest the psychologist accompany officers on patrol to gain insight into the job and acceptance from the officers. Dr. S. A.

The board officers must enjoy a sound reputation and high credibility among the line officers. Meetings of the board are strictly confidential and nonpunitive in nature. The peer officers try to analyze cases in which the officer has been involved, while pointing out, tactfully, that they all do the same job. They discuss how to handle problem situations and present alternatives and common sense techniques to the officer experiencing difficulty. The Oakland, California, Police Depart- ment pioneered this approach and claims a great deal of success with it. 26 On the other hand, the Kansas City, Missouri, Police De- partment experimented with a form of peer panel and determined it to be largely non - productive.27 Other attempts to set up programs to help police officers with problems have been oriented toward specific problem areas; many major police departments have pro- grams designed to aid the alcoholic. These programs are often begun and staffed by rehabilitated police officer alcoholics and are usually associated with national treatment associations.

If police departments seeking help for troubled officers do not have "in- house" programs, they are forced to refer their troubled officers to community mental health facilities or private counselors. There is lim- ited research concerning the success of such referrals, but initial efforts suggest that police officers are reluctant to utilize community mental facilities for their own problems. Although police officers seem to experience a great deal more stress and resultant emotional problems than the average person, they do not appear to seek help at mental health centers at greater than average rates .28 KARSH'S BAKERY Complete Line of Bakery Goods — Special Orders Delivered Wedding Cakes Our Specialty — Birthday Cakes - Breads - Danish Pastries Main Office & Store Gottschalks 938 Fulton Mall Fashion Fair 233 -6552 or 233 -4381 227 -1255 First & McKinley 1439 S.

EAST FRESNO, CA t 64 There are many problems involved in the referral of troubled officers to outside mental health professionals. First, a police officer is a member of a subculture which says that he must handle his own problems. Emotional problems are frequently perceived as weak- nesses and therefore become threats to the macho self -image of "the crime fighter." Secondly, the officer may be reluctant to go for counseling where many of his own "street people" may be occupying seats next to him.

The majority of these problems are not of the major mental illness variety and probably would not re- quire long -term psychotherapy. Enlightened police administrators from large departments are responding to this need with a variety of programs, but many police officers go un- aided because of lack of funds, unavailability of trained counselors, and reluctance to turn to community mental health resources. A Potential Solution Police departments could set up "in- house" counseling programs utilizing their own of- ficers who are properly trained in counseling skills. Selected police officers, perhaps with undergraduate degrees in the behavioral sci- ences, could go to local colleges and univer- sities, enroll in counseling programs, and begin to learn the urgently needed skills. Courses designed to address special police problems could also be established, modeled after modern schools of education which offer student development courses for edu- ACE LIQUOR Liquor * Beer * Wine Delicatessen * Soft Drinks 4710 E.

Belkin, professor of counseling at Long Island Uni- versity, offers a definition of practical coun- seling for education which could easily be altered to fit the needs of the police agency. "Practical counseling may be defined as the total counseling process, underlined by a coherent philosophy and self-awareness, practiced with a commitment to the client's total growth, and encompassing face-to-face interviews, group processes, school services, testing programs, extracurricular activities, vocational and educational information, and anything else which contributes to the client's development and fulfillment as a person. "29 Belkin distinguishes between counseling and psychotherapy in the summary of the first chapter in his book. "Counseling and psychotherapy, although often used interchangeably, were shown to have different meanings in their operational senses. Both do treat emotional, adjustment, and behavioral problems, and both vary in the degree of intensity, depending upon the practitioner. But while psychotherapy is built upon a comprehensive theory of personality, a psychopathology, and a specific corpus of techniques, counseling is built upon an under- lying philosophy of life, including theories of value, knowledge, and reality. In this respect, we may consider counseling as a broader discipline than psychotherapy, since it treats the whole person in the context of his inter- H. B. EASTMAN TRUCKING GENERAL HAULING 3329 W.

"36 There are some departments which have attempted this approach; the Boston Police Department is one example. Its counseling unit began as an alcoholic counseling pro- gram. Soon police officers with other kinds of personal problems began seeking the assist- ance of the alcoholic program counselors (three police officers who are rehabilitated alcoholics themselves). As more nonalcoholic clients sought help, the need to learn greater counseling skills became apparent. The of- ficers contacted the Boston University Coun- selors Education Program, and a course of study was set up to teach the counseling officers a variety of counseling techniques.�Il Today the Boston Police Department's "Stress Program" is Drell- established and is helping hundreds of fellow officers through difficult times. As %vith any new venture, setting up such a program \vould entail a number of problems ! >t,tl-i for the university and for the police departni(na. But little by little, the problems would be worked out and the benefits would be tremendous. Such a counseling program would be in reach of most police budgets. The police officer counselor could apply his new -found knowledge to a variety of common police problems. He could assist in training pro- ROL PAK FILTER SERVICE CO.

The police experience which he holds in common with his client would give him valuable insight and might make him more acceptable to the client than an outside psy- chologist. Finally, the police officer counselor could refer clients to non - police counselors and psychotherapists when necessary and also serve to smooth out some of the distrust and suspicion which might arise in the for- mation of that relationship. Reaching a greater number of these trou- bled police officers would be of great benefit to the police department and to the com- munity. but most of all, the call for assistance of a police officer in trouble would be answered as it has been in the past, by one of his own.

Cedar Ave., Fresno License #194465 "We Don't Build Roads Any More" By Lieut. Dale Reed The evolution from an obscure "road camp" in Los Gatos Canyon, between Coalin- ga and Hollister, to the present Fresno County Branch Jail has been a long, at times painful, always interesting, and sometimes even funny process. The Los Gatos Creek Canyon Road Camp was established in 1939 under the administration of Sheriff George Overholt. Record keeping was a somewhat casual mat- ter in those days, so there is very little infor- mation available about the facility before 1945. That year Melvin Willmirth, later elec- ted Sheriff, was appointed superintendent, following his discharge from World War II service in the U.S. Navy. In the early years a judge had the authority to sentence a person convicted of a mis- demeanor directly to the road camp. Later the law was changed so that the sentence was to the custody of the sheriff, and at the jail a determination was made as to where he would serve his time. Because there was more freedom of movement, better food, and fresh air, the road camp was considered by most the better facility of the two, even though the inmates were expected to work for their bread and butter. Most were assigned to work crews whose job was to hack out the rocks %Vith picks, shovels, and dynamite to make a hLbrough roadway from Coalinga to the San 85 Benito County line, southeast of Hollister. In a sense it was a "make work" project, for the amount of traffic between the Coalinga area and southeastern San Benito County wouldn't have justified the expense of constructing a road by conventional methods. But the phys- ical labor, wholesome food, and regular hours were good therapy, and helped many an alcoholic get his life straightened out. Inmates were supervised while working by "crew foremen," and at night in the camp were under the authority of "night watch- men." Because of the isolated location of the camp, the custodial personnel lived there for weeks at a time. They were not sworn law enforcement officers, but were deputized as "deputies without compensation" so they could legally search for escaped prisoners. They wore no uniform, and were given no special training for the difficult job they per- formed. There are still a few "ol' timers" around who can tell very interesting stories about some of the hunts for escapees from the camp. Searchers as well as escapees were hampered in their movement by the rough terrain, almost impenetrable brush, and lack of roads. In fact, for that reason there were few successful escapes, for there was no glace to go except into the wilderness, unless one wanted to take a chance on the road to Coalinga, the only one leading out of the area. Some would -be escapees were glad to be located, for it didn't take much travelling through the surrounding countryside to make them realize the camp wasn't such a bad place of ter all. Tracking them was made easier by a special cut made in the heels of their county issued shoes, assuming the fleeing inmate found a patch of soil smooth enough that a footprint would be left. In 1948, due to the increase in prisoner population and cost of transportation to and from the Los Gatos Camp, a second facility was established at Kearney Park. There not being any roads to build in that area, it was more of a farming operation, and was called the Fresno County Honor Farm. There the custodial personnel began wearing uniform shirts with distinctive shoulder patches bear- ing the words "Fresno County Honor Farm." Most of the employees lived with their fami- lies in houses left over from the days when the Im \ Timberwine MOUNTAIN PROPERTIES Shaver Lake • Condominiums • Individual Homesites • Five -acre Estates • Commercial Fresno Shaver Lake 252 -3758 (209) 841 -7705 24 HOUR SERVICE Call 237 -6307 4453 S. Golden State Blvd. Fresno, CA 93725 property was part of the estate of M. Theo Kearney. Both facilities were under the com- mand of Melvin Willmirth, who occupied one of the residences at Kearney. The Los Gatos Camp was directly supervised by Parris Eakles, and the Kearney facility by a Mr. Lamont, their titles being Assistant Superin- tendent. In 1954 Melvin Willmirth defeated Sheriff Joseph B. Tracy, and was sworn in the f ollow- ing January. The Board of Supervisors left him in charge of both camps, although they were not a part of the Sheriff's Department, but a separate department under the direct administration of the Board. Although the Sheriff was forced to wear two hats, there was no conflict of interest, and the arrangement facilitated the movement of inmates between the two minimum security institutions and the jail. Newly sentenced prisoners were screened at the jail by a formal screening board, and then an employee from the camps, who B & J Rent -A- Trailer System Inc.

Those who were considered too old, lame, or lazy to withstand the rigors of the Los Gatos Camp, and those with relatively short sentences would go to Kearney Park. The bad, young, strong, long timers were sent to Los Gatos. After a few years the problem of more and more prisoners, requiring more transporta- tion, and the continually increasing expense of operating two minimum security facilities made it seem desirable to combine the two operations into a single facility. Sheriff Will - mirth worked long and hard to sell the idea to the Board of Supervisors, and eventually was successful. Land was purchased at the north- east corner of Elm and Elkhorn Avenues, in the Caruthers Judicial District, and given the then somewhat presumptuous name of the Fresno County Industrial Farm. It didn't look very much like a farm then; it was four hun- dred acres of sagebrush and alkali.

Rather than wait until money was available, Sheriff Willmirth decided to go ahead with the project, using inmate labor and whatever materials he could find. Soil was found that was suitable for making brick, and a makeshift but effective manufacturing plant was devised. Inmates from the Kearney Park camp were put to work making bricks, and over the next several months they produced enough bricks, similar in appearance to pumitile, to build the ad- ministration building, the kitchen and ,mess hall, the barracks, the recreation hall, and the laundry. Money had been found to purchase plumbing, roofing materials, and other ne- cessities, and in 1958 the construction was far enough along that the Kearney facility was closed, and the inmates moved to the new plant.

Mr. Eakles was designated Chief Su- pervisor, and Les Lowery was named Assis- tant Chief Supervisor. Other custodial per- sonnel became either Supervisors Grade I or II, with the Grade II Supervisors working the day shift and overseeing the work performed by the inmates, and the Grade I Supervisors working nights and maintaining security. Capacity of the facility was 360 inmates at that time, and it was generally full. In addi- tion to operating the farm itself, crews of inmates were regularly bussed to various county park sites where, under the direction of a Grade II Supervisor, they developed picnic areas, built barbecue grills, and did clean -up and maintenance work. The exten- sive and modern county park system enjoyed by Fresno County residents today had its beginning in the efforts of the crews from the old Road Camp and the Industrial Farm. Many of the inmates were assigned to work at the Farm, in the kitchen, the truck farm, the laundry, or with the small cattle herd. Not all of the acreage was being utilized at that time, because the only available farming equip- ment was modified horse -drawn implements that had been scrounged somewhere, and obsolete tractors handed down from other departments.

They could see the potential the facility had; how with a nominal monetary investment, careful planning, and a great deal of hard work, which they were more than willing to provide, the Farm could be made into a model facility of its type, fulfilling a real need for the county.

Many times citizens driving down Elm Avenue would see the yard lights and drive in, thinking it was anything from a race track to a drive -in movie. It was not uncommon during that time for the midnight shift to be staffed by only one officer. In this day and age it seems unreason- able that there would be just one man in camp with 350 prisoners. It must be remembered that at that time the prisoners at the Industrial Farm were mostly those doing time on P.C. 647f (public intoxication) or other true mis- demeanor committments. Very seldom was there a prisoner who had been originally charged with a felony and that charge re- duced to a misdemeanor. Things pretty well remained the same until 1970, when the Industrial Farm became an integral and full - fledged part of the Sheriff's Department. Chief Deputy Al Collins and Sgt. Herman Saghatelian were the first Com- mander and Assistant under the new arrange- ment, and were given the responsibility of effecting the changeover and ironing out any problems that might not have been antici- pated. After all the dust had settled, com- mand of the Industrial Farm was given to Lieutenant Don Dennis, who recently retired from the Department as a captain, and Sgt. John Swenning, who later served several years as Chief of Police at Kingsburg. Lt. Dennis arranged for the first official inventory of equipment; it hadn't seemed SERVICE & SALES, INC %4WO • • Complete Truck Repair • Complete Spring Service • Heliarc Aluminum Welding • Wreck Rebuilding • New & Used Parts 3397 E.

Dennis often made the com- ment that he was amazed at how anything had been accomplished with the equipment the men were given to work with. From that time on, things began to look up for "the bastard organization out in the country. Lt. Dennis organized the Industrial Farm and got it on an even keel, so that it was func- tioning quite well as a part of the Sheriff's Department. When he and Sgt. Swenning were transferred out in about a year, Sagha- telian, who in the meantime had been pro- moted to lieutenant, returned to assume command, with Sgt. Rod Arden as his assis- tant. During Lt. Saghatelian's administration, things continued to move; more things were accomplished. The cattle were inventoried, tagged, and branded; the old tractors were replaced with new ones; the kitchen and laundry facilities were upgraded. In 1973 the position of Industrial Farm Supervisor as changed to Correctional Officer, to corres- pond with like positions in the main jail, and for the first time a standard uniform was pre- scribed. The uniform consisted of a regular Sheriff's Department uniform shirt, with shoulder patches identical to those worn by other members of the Department, and brown hopsack trousers. Probably the most hectic time the Farm ever experienced was in July and August of CALIFORNIA MOTOR EXCHANGE ED EADS Your Business Is Appreciated Phone 233 -6561 1452 H STREET FRESNO 1973, when it became the booking facility for hundreds of striking UFW members who had insisted on being arrested to focus public attention on their cause.

For the first time commercial fertilizer was utilized. land that had been idle for years because of alkali was treated and put into production. A school program was started for the inmates, and so many other improvements made that it would be impossible to mention them all. In addition to the improvements initiated by Lieut. Cunningham, three other major changes took place during his tenure as com- mander. First, Harold McKinney became sheriff, and he established the Correction Bureau, consisting of the main jail and the Industrial Farm under an Assistant Sheriff, and a ranking structure of Correctional Of- ficers. Then, in the spring of 1976 a barracks was remodeled to accommodate female pris- oners, and in May the first contingent of women was brought to the Farm. Prior to that time females sentenced to long jail terms had been required to do their time in the county jail, simply because there was no better place available as there always had been for the men. Finally, in 1978, in order to provide more flexibility in movement and incarcera- tion of all prisoners, the Industrial Farm of- ficially became the Fresno County Branch Jail. The Fresno County Branch Jail has a long and colorful past. While most of the colorful individuals who staffed and operated it as the Road Camp, the Honor Farm, and the Indus- trial Farm have now retired, through their efforts this facility has evolved into one of the GRAVES LIQUOR STORE UPHOLSTERY GROCERIES AUTO • BOAT • TRUCK DELICATESSEN FURNITURE BEER • WINE UPHOLSTERING LIQUORS FREE ESTIMATES 2593 S.

The Branch Jail now has facilities to hold 220 male inmates and 40 females. There are maximum security cells for 10 inmates, and, as a branch of the main jail, we can legally book and hold for court appearance persons arrest- ed, thus saving patrol officers in the south- west sector many miles of driving. The staff consists of a lieutenant in command, four sergeants, eighteen correctional officers, ten civilian personnel, which includes clerks, cooks, and the laundry manager. The Branch Jail maintains a commercial type laundry, which handles all the laundry for the Main Jail and the Branch Jail. The only paid employee of the laundry is the manager, who supervises a crew of from twelve to fifteen inmates. One of the correctional of- ficers, C/O II Gene McClurg, is an experi- enced herdsman, and has been working at the facility since 1959.

In the author's opinion, it would not be in- appropriate to call the facility the "Wild Bill Branch Jail," in recognition of all that Lieut. Cunningham did to make it what it is today. One of Bill's pet peeves was for some unthink- ing "donkey," as he would call the offender, to refer to it as "the road camp." His standard reply to such an error was a glare that would melt an iceberg, and the coldly polite state- ment, "We don't build roads any more." And indeed we do not. We officers and civilian personnel who work at the Branch Jail are proud of the facility and of what it has become. As its present commander, I can say it could not have been accomplished without the backing of the Sheriff and the dedication and pride of the people working here, both now and in the past.

Arcade Fresno GONE FISHIN' In the past it has been customary to present a quite comprehensive biographical sketch of each member of the department who had retired the previous year. However, so many left the department in 1978, via either service or disability retirement, that such a presentation is not practical this year. We'd have enough such material to fill the magazine. We therefore present only the basic information about each retiring member: name, service date, principal assignments, special services, etc. This brevity, however, does not detract from the sincerity of our appreciation for their contributions to the department and to the law en f orcement prof ession, nor from the warmth of our wishes f or good luck and success in whatever manner they choose to spend their retirement years. ta* IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIF0 �I MAURICE "BILL" ADAMS 1966 Jail Records Clerk, Main Jail RETIREMENTS r DOLORES BAKER 1954 Deputy Sheriff Women's Jail - Bailiff GARDNER'S SHOES FRESNO FASHION FAIR 227 -5011 North First and Shaw Ave. Fresno DUKES COCKTAILS Your Host - Duke Garbedian 2039 Kern Street 268 -6821 107 ART CHRISTENSEN 1953 Deputy Sheriff Jail, Bailiff, Patrol, Detective, Search and Rescue, California Homicide Investigators Association CUSTOM SPRAYING - ORCHARD, VINEYARD s INSECTICIDES HERBICIDES s, UNGICIDES 9 FUMIGANTS • FERTILIZER FARM SUPPLIES s GONDOLA GRAPE PICKING STAKE DRIVING * LAND LEVELING S & M FARM SUPPLY, INC.

Shields Avenue 291 -3501 Clovis Police Department During the past year the population of the City of Clovis exceeded the 30,000 mark and, along with the population increase, came the obvious rise in crime. A special "Neighbor- hood Alert" Program was implemented to combat the increase. To date, fifteen sepa- rate "neighborhood alert" groups have been formed with many good results. Much of the "old time" cooperation and communication between neighbors, businesses and the com- munity as a whole have evolved from this program. To cite an example, in the area of Peach and Gettysburg Avenues a neighborhood alert meeting was held. The neighbors complained of vandalism, drinking, noise and speeding in and around a local roller skating rink. At Captain Gino Pishione's suggestion, a meet- ing was set up to include neighbors, the apartment managers, and roller rink manage- ment /employees. The results of the com- munication which took place at the meeting were that speed bumps were placed in the parking lot of the roller rink, chain gates were added at each driveway, and additional se- curity personnel were hired. Within ninety days the vandalism rate was "down" 50%, the speeding had stopped, and the neighbors were''happy.

The Department has also implemented a Burglary /Armed Robbery Prevention Pro- gram with the businesses in Clovis. A movie is shown on armed robberies; it teaches about alarm systems and the "dos" and "don'ts" during a robbery. A suspect was shot during an armed robbery during the last year and, v,ith the increase in this type of crime, the need for this program was imperative. To further deal with the increase in crime, emphasis has been placed on training. Of- ficers have attended classes on crime scene investigation, advanced fingerprint classifi- cation, etc. Chief Higgason and his staff feel that, to properly handle the major crime problems, expertly and professionally trained officers are needed. With the possibility of a major shopping center at Clovis and Shaw Avenues and the City's continued growth, the Department continues to prepare for the future to meet the changing needs.

Manes, serves a population of approximately 4,000 permanent residents, and several times that number at the peak of the harvest season. First line supervision is maintained by Sgt. Dennis Palmer and Sgt. Rod Lake. The De- partment maintains a twenty -four dispatch center for police, fire, and ambulance ser- vices. Each officer is a qualified emergency medical technician. Because all emergency ambulance calls in the community are han- dled through the police department, each officer may have the opportunity and respon- sibility to render actual life saving service to someone in the community. Each regular officer meets P.O.S.T. re- quirements, and each reserve officer has qualified for actual police duty as prescribed by Penal Code section 832. The reserve program provides manpower to maintain law DALENA & MARCIOCHI, INC. Ned F. Dalena & Louise A. Marciochi All Types Insurance -- Surety Bonds 338 W.

The regular force is further augmented by the Police Cadet program, designed to give young people interested in a law enforcement career some idea of the joys and sorrows of the profession. Under the direction of Sgt. Palmer, these young men are responsible for certain office duty and tele- type operations, and are both a tremendous help and a credit to the Department. The Firebaugh Police Department has an official policy of attempting to actually be- come involved, in a helpful manner, in the local problems of the citizens and the com- munity. Great emphasis is placed on public relations, and through a series of department initiated programs, an effort is made to keep the public informed of the Department's problems and progress.

He devotes a great deal of time to speeches and demonstrations at the local schools and before the community's social and service organizations. The Police Department has arrangements whereby matrons are available for trans- porting female prisoners. Another valuable asset to the Department is a volunteer under- water search and recovery team, which works under the direction of Officer A. Reyes. The team is often called upon to search one of our many canals for the body of a drowning victim, or to recover a submerged auto- mobile. The officers of the Firebaugh Police De- partment are committed to giving the city's citizens the best police protection possible. In the wake of Proposition 13, the Department lost a patrolman position and also a patrol- man /dispatcher. This had quite an impact during the summer months of 1978, when the population of the community grew to be- tween ten and fifteen thousand, due to the influx of farm workers. Nineteen seventy -eight was a good year for the Department, in spite of the impact of Proposition 13. A high percentage of our arrests resulted in conviction, and our prop- erty recovery figures were also high. The year s brought many changes, some for the better, some for the worse, but all helped to expand our knowledge of the police profession, and enhanced our determination to do our best for the community.

J.Byington Harold Grant, new Chief of Police in Ker- man, is no stranger to municipal growing pains such as new housing tracts and new shopping centers, congested traffic, and the increasing crime rate which accompanies growth. Grant, who grew up in small com- munities in the South, recognizes the strengths and the benefits of bringing his family to a small community. He is aware that the in- creased population brought by the building boom in Kerman will bring new problems to Kerman's law enforcement. Prior to assuming command of Kerman's 15- member police department, he served for nine years as a Sergeant with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

He has instituted a new management system designed to motivate his officers to identify with and to work within the com- munity. He counts heavily on his officers to assist in the formation of management objec- tives which will involve citizens in combating the problems which face his agency.

He is concerned that communication not become a one -way street in either direc- tion. Suggestions and ideas from either the police or citizens must be accompanied by the responsibility and authority to carry out the resulting programs. The Police Department will be called upon to define the police func- tion and to educate the community regarding that function. This effort has had a sound beginning, and with the support of the com- munity several programs have begun and others are being started. FUNG'S KITCHEN CHINESE 8 AMERICAN FOOD TO GO 251 -3234 4141 E.

The program involves two patrol of- ficers who answer routine calls in the two - square -mile city on bicycles. This allows the officers more intimate contact with the citi- zens. The program has proven to be a popular one with the people of Kerman.

The Police Probation Team is empowered to sentence the juvenile to a local work program, to pay restitution, or to be incarcerated in Juvenile Hall, depend- ing on past record.

The police officers necessarily deal with the crisis needs of the clients of these agencies when agency personnel are not available. The Kerman Police Department has begun a program to educate the officers as to the role and func- tions of these agencies. Informal training sessions over a cup of coffee are being con- ducted on a routine basis to allow officers to meet agency line staff who service Kerman. These meetings allow the officers to meet and get to know individuals who work for these agencies.

OFFICERS MEET THE PUBLIC The role of the police professional has been altered by both inflation and the tight fiscal policies of local government brought about by Proposition 13. Police agencies are not receiving necessary new equipment and very careful consideration is given to replacing worn out equipment presently in use.

Sergeant Robert Speer was appointed as Acting Chief until August 1, 1978, when Myron Galchutt,a Detective Sergeant from the Napa Police Department, was appointed by the City Council as Chief of Police for the City of Kingsburg.

The Kingsburg Reserve Officer Program, under the direction of Sergeant Speer and Reserve Sergeant Fred Rodriquez, has under- gone some significant changes. The former program allowed for a sergeant and five officers, where the present program estab- lished two corporal squad leader positions.

The Kingsburg Police Department was fortunate in receiving a grant from the Office of Criminal Justice and Planning, through AB90 funding, to employ an officer to act as a liaison between the Police Department and the City Schools in an effort to curb juvenile crime. The program is entitled "Juvenile De- linquency Prevention and Diversion Pro- gram." As the title indicates, the program is directed toward both prevention, with school presentations, and diversion, with a local community work referral program. Officer Glen Kirkorian was assigned to the position of Juvenile Officer and has done an outstanding job coordinating these programs. To date there have been presentations in both elemen- tary schools, the junior high school, and the senior high school.

This outstanding record has established creditabil- ity of the department, and has assured its officers the recognition which they deserve. Looking ahead a few months, the ground work has been formulated to implement "Neighborhood Alert" and "Operation Iden- tification" programs. The response from the local businessmen and the community has been exceptionally positive in getting these programs established. The Police Depart- ment is anticipating a kick -off date of June 1979 to complement the proclamation of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, that the month of June 1979 be designated as "Burglary Prevention Month."

Herndon Ave., Clovis Focus On Traffic Safety And Juvenile Delinquency Prevention PARLIER POLICE DEPARTMENT The Parlier Police Department has con- centrated special attention on improving traf- fic safety conditions for its citizens and on reducing juvenile delinquency. To deal more effectively with the traffic safety problem, P.P.D. obtained a grant through the Office of Traffic Safety to help fund a Traffic En- forcement Officer, a traffic vehicle and speed radar equipment. The Traffic Enforcement Project consists basically of the selective enforcement of haz- ardous traffic violations and identification of hazardous traffic conditions throughout the city. In the area of juvenile delinquency pre- vention P.P.D. has continued its Neighbor- hood Youth Project Using Minibikes, which is co- sponsored by the Central Valley Y.M.C.A. In January 1979 Officer Ray Hernandez was assigned as Traffic Enforcement Officer. U Janigian & DeHaas Real Estate 1526 CLOVIS AVENUE, SUITE A CLOVIS, CALIF. 93612 a • �t mr HOMES — RANCHES — INVESTMENTS 299 -7286 Officer Hernandez attended an intensive 40- hour Traffic Accident Investigation Course at the Modesto Criminal Justice Center. In March, Officer Hernandez assisted Mr. Ed- ward L. kl7ells, Cities Traffic Engineer, De- partment of Transportation, in conducting a traffic engineering survey to update and revise traffic control devices. Since the survey was completed the city's Public Works De- partment has been actively involved in post- ing additional traffic control devices and in upgrading existing ones. In addition to improving conditions in traffic control devices, selective enforcement of traffic codes has increased by 30% over last year. This increase comes as a result of in- creased patrol time by the traffic officer and through the use of the speed radar system. The number of speed violation citations has 145 % IN CLOVIS 1 �4, F' T EXTfQmiMATE Wf FOREIGN CAR PARTS Specializing in Replacement Parts for VOLKSWAGEN - TOYOTA - DATSUN NEW - REBUILT - ACCESSORIES 318 CLOVIS AVENUE • CLOVIS • 299 -0454 increased with the effective utilization of radar with very few cases contested in court by speed violators. Since the Traffic Enforcement Program is relatively new, its overall effectiveness will be evaluated at the end of 1979. Juvenile delinquency in Parlier has taken a downward trend during the last three years mainly as a result of the School Resource Program. This program is funded through a grant from the California Council on Crimi- nal Justice. The School Resource Officer is assigned to the local schools and maintains close contact with teachers and school offi- cials in dealing with juvenile problems. The SRO gives classroom presentations in grades K -12 on subjects such as "Drugs of Abuse," "Youth and the Law," "Policemen as Com- munity Helpers," and "Firearm Safety."

P.P.D. sponsors a Neighborhood Youth Project Using Minibikes as a preventive meas- ure against juvenile crime. American Honda furnishes 16 Trail -70 Minibikes, and the Cen- tral Valley Y.M.C.A. helps administer the program. P.P.D. recruits participants ranging from 11 to 15 years old. Each youngster is assigned a bike to ride each Saturday at a supervised riding site. One of the main con- ditions for remaining on the program is that the youngster stay out of trouble, especially with the police and juvenile authorities. Once a youngster becomes closely attached to the bike he will try hard to "stay clean" so that he does not lose the privelege of belonging to the "N.Y.P.U.M. Club." An important facet of the riding sessions is that the SRO, Sgt.

Shaver Lake, CA 93664 Reedley Police Department Small Department, Limited Budget, Unlimited Results By Dave Caron With rising costs and inflation, funding difficulties for law enforcement agencies are becoming more acute each year. This is par- ticularly true in small police agencies where simply maintaining adequate manpower and equipment consumes most monetary resour- ces. It is most common, then, for smaller po- lice departments to exclude from their plan- ning any type of special service for their com- munities as well as any type of special train- ing for their officers. When this happens, both the image and the effectiveness of the depart- ment suffer. The City of Reedley stands apart from this norm in that at this department not only do we enjoy the benefits of specialty programs, but also the programs flourish as well, receiving wide -based departmental par- ticipation as well as solid community support. In an agency of less than twenty full time employees we manage to offer a wide range of services to our community as well as ex- perience to our officers. Our special programs include an extremely active police canine SHAVER LAKE REAL ESTATE, INC. The Mountain Professionals DEE BILLUPS LOU STECK (209)841 -3575 Shaver Lake r� 155 corps, an animal /environmental control of- ficer, a large and well- trained reserve pro- gram, reserve as well as full time dispatchers, a progressive firearms program, a Field Training Officer program, a Youth Services Officer, an Investigator, and a part time Crime Prevention Officer. The Youth Services Officer has the respon- sibility to work with and in the schools, to handle juvenile complaints and investigations, to investigate child abuse and sexual assaults, and to set up youth diversion programs in the community. The Investigating Officer works primarily with the District Attorney, and investigates adult cases. He must manage to keep the communication open between the court and the beat officer —not always easy in a rural community. The Crime Prevention Officer handles security checks of homes and businesses, aids violent crime victims, and works with senior citizen groups and civic groups. Each of these officers is also avail- able to speak to requesting organizatons. The LODGE POLE REALTY Specializing in- Mountain Properties C. O. Williams, Realtor ' r P.O. Box 125 P.O.

Complemental to POST training areas, the Field Training Officer provides in- service training to both regular and reserve officers. Thus, updating of new ideas, laws, and tech - ni(lues is more readily assimilated throughout the department. Because of the size and nature of our de- partment, many of these positions overlap. All must remain flexible and adaptable to the needs of the department as a whole. Having provided these services to the community, we have found the results are quite pleasing. Our burglary rate has decreased 25% in recent years. During a three -year period it decreased 55 %.

Probably one of our most successful pro- grams, certainly the one with the largest departmental participation and most publi- city, is our Clanine Corps.

We currently em- ploy the services of four trained police dogs, have two in training and others are on a waiting list to join their ranks. Our program not only has been a tremendous asset to our department but, in addition, several other agencies have used our program as a model for their own.

When the canine corps was initiated in 1974, the city was plagued with three major crime problems. Burglary was rising at an epidemic rate. We were third in total burglaries in our county (not a good standing, considering our size), and our per capita rate put us higher than metropolitan Fresno. In fact, we were higher per capita than anyone in our entire county. Our second major concern was civil unrest. While a fight involving one to two hundred rivals may not be much for a department like Los Angeles, when just tNvo officers are avail- able it presents some fascinating studies in strategy (and some costly overtime bills for the city fathers to pay). Rival groups within the city kept the officers busy, and early morning personnel callouts were almost ex- pected each weekend. There were two homi- COALINGA FEED YARD, INC. RT. 1, BOX 135 Coalinga WEETH FARMS P. O., Box 984 Coalinga 158 tides and numerous shootings and knifings in related fights. Our third priority was the rate at which assaults upon our officers was increasing. During the nine months just preceding the initiation of canine street use, there were 19 major assaults on our officers. These as- saults resulted in time off for injuries and court costs, not to mention the inevitable frustration and anxiety suffered by officers who were asked to respond to calls for assis- tance only to find themselves needing to call for assistance after they had arrived. "Minor" assaults on officers were classified as resisting arrest or interfering with police officers, and the issue was becoming more complicated with the increasingly common threat of law- suits. Being faced with such statistics in a small town made it obvious that a need for some new thinking was necessary. Canine use in police work has been around for many thous- Three Rocks Cafe & Dept.

To use them in such a small community was, indeed, some "new" thinking, and plans began to be formed to organize a canine corps. At first, a professionally trained dog was purchased by the city, and a professional trainer was obtained to work with the officer chosen as handler. With the addition of a second, officer -owned dog, the program not only experienced its first growth but also began a pattern for future expansion. The problem of transportation for the canines was eliminated easily. At the time of the program's inception the city was partici- pating in a three -year LEAA burglary grant which provided us with two patrol cars. As the canine teams became "street certified" they were added to the grant as part of the burglary suppression/ suspect apprehension patrol force. This enabled us to modify one of the "grant" cars to accommodate the canines by exchanging the rear seat for a platform. The canine corps was now a functioning part of the Reedley Police llepartment. From the beginning, the services of the professional trainer were only temporary, and as soon as the officers became aware of how to work with the dogs, he was released. It wasn't long until the corps again began to expand and a third team was made street ready. Grant funding was running out by this time, so alternatives were needed for trans- portation. It was decided that, for a one -time investment, one of the used patrol cars would not be traded in. Instead, the rear seat was exchanged and it was added to our canine team. Each year now two of our regular patrol vehicles are rotated into service as canine units rather than being traded in. In emergen- cies, or when repairs deplete our supply of regular patrol cars, they can still be used by regular patrol officers. The program's next step was to mandate that all future canine additions be owned by the applicant officer. This not only eliminates expense to the city but also insures that apply- ing officers have a real interest in the pro- gram. Training dogs for police work is a very difficult and drawn out process, and it was decided that, if a handler were willing to train and work on his own time, after the dog was certified to be used in police work the city would "rent" the team's services. A subven- tion check at $60.00 per month was given to each team, and the city agreed to assist in the purchase of dog food and payment of veter- inary fees.

Requests for dog demonstrations began to come in from civic groups and neighboring communities, and the city began to take notice. It was obvious that the corps was here to stay. The good news did not stop there, either, as we began also to see results in our crime statistics. For the first time in four years our burglary rate was dropping, the gang wars had diminished in size and inten- sity and were readily dispersed, and assaults on officers dropped. In fact, in the corps' first year there were just three assaults on officers, none of which took place when a canine team was present. The corps was expanded to include a Master Trainer /Handler at an additional cost of $90.00 per month, thus enabling one man to be in charge of training and policy as well as allowing him to be the fourth team. A "re- serve corps" was also begun with a maximum HUNT & SONS, INC. 7229 E. Mt.

The "reserve corps" must maintain all training and stand- ards as if they were actual canine corps members. Since its beginning the corps has been called on many times, aiding officers here and in surrounding cities in the apprehension of burglary suspects and other wanted felons. The F.B.I. requested their assistance in trail- ing an extortionist, and Fresno's S.W.A.T. team asked for help in the apprehension of a sniper suspect. When President Carter arrived in our area, the Secret Service called upon our K -9 teams to secure the fields surrounding the President. They have taken top awards in statewide competition and have performed well in local demonstrations. A small amount is budgeted each year to enable the teams to compete in state trials. Overall, the program has been quite successful. As mentioned earlier, the city was pre- viously receiving funding from an LEAA grant. While certain of our programs were first funded with federal and state grant monies, we have now become self - sufficient. Each of our specialty programs is maintained without a single grant- obtained dollar. We have not, however, turned our backs on the educational opportunities available with outside funding. All of our officers have attended basic police academy. Arrange- ments were also made so that many of them could attend a two -week accredited investi- VIERHUS FARMS Coalinga, California gation school. Our officers have attended special courses in homicide, rape, bombing, arson, juvenile law and procedure, and bur- glary investigation —all with the assistance of outside funding. And so we have managed, perhaps by working a little short - handed at times, to upgrade our education and ability and to improve not only our image but also our performance as law officers in our com- munity. Yet, we have been able to achieve our goals of providing special programs and ser- vices without maintaining a dangerous reli- ance on outside funding for personnel. We have also attempted to remain flexible and progressive in our thinking without abandon- ing sound past principles. We have stressed self- education as a means to further the pro- ficiency of law enforcement in our commun- ity, and we see specialty services as one means of improving our service to the City of Reedley.

Del Puppo, Investigator The City of Selma is located in the heart of the richest raisin producing area in the world. More than 95% of the raisin production of the United States is grown in this area, and 55% of it is packed here. Selma welcomes industry for which there are large areas available for plant locations. Many new housing tracts are now under con- struction to meet the needs of increased population which has come with the newly built industrial plants around and near Selma. Selma now has a population of 12,000. Selma's Police Department is located in the downtown area along the Southern Pacific railroad tracks. The building housing the department was originally the Southern Paci- fic passenger train depot, erected in 1918. In the early 1940s the passenger service was discontinued. The building was used as a Architectural design of the former Southern Pacific Passenger Depot still prevails in the front entrance of the Selma Police Department. grocery store until it was purchased by the city. It was then remodeled and dedicated on November 18, 1960, as Selma's new police department. 1HE ALEN R4NCH COALINGA PLEASANT VALLEY DODGE - CHRYSLER 935 -2065 155 E.

A new addition of 4,800 square feet was added to the old facility, while at the same time the old facility was remodeled to match the new addition. The addition brought the total square footage of the police department to 9,800 square feet. A much - needed security for dispatch was added. The dispatchers are protected by bullet proof glass and converse with the public through an intercom system. Also added was an upgraded communications system. This system is one of the newest on the market, with a two -phase backup system. If the department's diesel generator should fail to start, the radios can be switched over to a backup battery system. The new addition also included a squad room, photo lab, locker room with showers, detective's office, a law library room, and new offices for the Chief of Police and captain. An enclosed sallyport area was built for bringing in prisoners to the department. The officer drives his patrol unit to the sallyport door and radios dispatch to open the electric door. He then drives his vehicle into the sally - port. The door closes behind, thus making it very difficult for a prisoner to escape while being taken from the vehicle to the booking LARRY McLEOD FORD LINCOLN - MERCURY FORD MERCURY LINCOLN CONTINENTAL PINTO FAIRMONT MUSTANG GRANADA THUNDERBIRD 157 W.

The sallyport was not only a great im- provement in control of prisoners, but is also used by the Fresno County Sheriff's Depart- ment, which uses the Selma jail to house pris- oners awaiting court in our city and other cities within the jurisdiction of the Sheriff's Selma Substation. The jail is also used for temporary detention of prisoners for the Kingsburg Police Department. The department has five marked black and white patrol vehicles, one animal control vehicle (which is equipped with emergency equipment), and one scooter to mark vehicle tires in the downtown area.

In The Snow Most San Joaquin Valley residents who visit the Sierras during the winter do so to have a good time — skiing, sledding, helping the kids build a snow man, or just frolicking. Members of the Department's Search and Rescue Team go once each year for a more serious reason, but they, too, evidently enjoy the experience to some extent, judging by the number who volunteer year after year. The annual snow survival seminar, begun several years ago as a training program for the Department team only, has grown into a major event, with participation by many other agencies, both tax supported and volunteer. This year's site was the Dinkey Creek area, north of the Wishon Road. The first day was spent in building shelters in which the train- ees and some instructors were required to spend the night, preparing their meals from emergency rations, and in every way possible simulating a situation of actually being strand- ed in the snow.

The high point of the second day's training was in the delicate art of probing to locate an avalanche victim. If probing operations can be started soon enough, there is a chance for a completely buried victim to be saved. Assum- ing he has the presence of mind to cover his face with his hands or arms as the snow covers him, he may create an air pocket that will keep him alive for up to thirty minutes. Therefore, rescue operations have to be not only fast, but precise. There probably won't be time to go over the area again if the victim is missed the first time. Photo #7 —The slope in the background really isn't steep enough for an avalanche, but it is adequate for training purposes. A dummy, simulating a victim, has been buried some- where on the hillside, and the team must find it as quickly as possible.

Miller In 1974 the Fresno County Sheriff's Com- munications Squadron and the Powerboat Squadron combined to form the Fresno County Sheriff's Public Safety Squadron. This new unit utilized the incorporated status and bylaws of the previous Communications Squadron. The new unit was governed by a staff of elected officers and its bylaws. This unit existed until December of 1975, when Sgt. Gerald Lawless, then the department's reserve coordinator, reorganized the unit to conform with the other Fresno County Sher- iff's reserve units. At that time new staff officers were appointed, and the incorpor- ated status was dropped. This newly reorgan- ized unit became the present Fresno County Sheriff's Public Safety Division.

Both boat patrol and land patrol functions are performed by members of the unit. Several unit members own and equip boats for lake patrol duties. These patrol duties are performed on Pine Flat, Shaver and Huntington Lakes. A great deal of time and money is invested in equipping and main- taining these private patrol boats. Members of this unit also work with the metropolitan patrol units and perform many other special duties as required by the Sheriff's Depart- ment. While on the eater, safety is the major concern of unit deputies. Much of the boat E. DUAIN HAMLIN INSURANCE BROKER 2222 W.

Cornelia Ave. Riverdale patrol day is devoted to checking for proper safety equipment on the boats using the lakes of Fresno County. Many potentially danger- ous problems are solved by these inspections before they become serious. Unit members are also trained in first aid procedures and C.P.R., which have, on occasion, been of great value in handling boating accidents or other problems which arise in the mountain sectors during the summer season. As a result of recent state legislation and departmental regulations increasing the re- quirements for becoming and renn—tining a reserve, unit membership has decreased, and finding people who are willing to contribute the time and money necessary to become reserve deputies is difficult. We appreciate those dedicated members who have remained with the unit and are continuing to help the Sheriff's Department with its many law en- forcement functions. Working for and with Doug & R. A.

The river was running high and swift at the time, and Paul's operation was just a bit "tricky." A few months ago we had one even more tricky, in almost the same location. An auto- mobile had gone off the road into the river, and the body of one occupant had been spotted lodged between rocks about halfway across. This time the water was running even higher, so much so that trying to swim to it, even belayed from shore as Paul had been, was considered too hazardous. Arrangements were made for a helicopter, owned by Rogers Helicopters of Clovis and operating under a National Park Service contract, to assist. The pilot, Vernon La NATIONAL RAISIN CO.

Sgt. Jim Hamilton volunteered for the somewhat unusual mission, and Deputy Tom Walton photographed the proceedings. The following photos show, in sequence, the helicopter approaching the point from where Hamilton would be picked up; the sling being rigged; Hamilton waiting for the initial lift -off (too bad the camera couldn't have recorded his thoughts at that moment); the flight through the air and the attempts to manuever him into position; his struggles against the current as he attached the line to the body; the trip back to shore; final landing; and the body being placed in a body bag. The entire operation was completed in about fifteen minutes. Hamilton stated that TOM'S T.V. & APPLIANCES 1349 1 Street, Reedley 638 -2636 834 -3720 Niir Custom Welding and Mfg. 7400 E.

For years we have used aircraft in attempt- ing to locate the bodies of drowning victims, because visibility into still water from the air is much better than from shore. But using one to actually remove the body from the water is something new. � t 1 t J At ` 1 ✓E 4 Photo #1 WALLIN K SUN FUNERAL HOME Chas. O. Wallin Chas. M.
