the Bureau take the Potrero, or vice versa." The results
show that the Bureau came through with the number
one spot by a fairly good margin of some 50 points or
more. The individual high scorer, and winner, was that
genial master shooter, Grif Thompson who finished with
a 397 and at that he Creedmored Karl Schaugaard out
of the top spot. Grif and Jack Ahem, last year's winner,
were not at the first shoot so have only one more chance
at the winners crown and that's a pretty tough spot to
be in. Joe Hallisy, last month's winner, finished with a
total aggregate of 592 — and that's darn close. The next
match will sure be one full of jitters and alibis from the
boys as its anyone's laurels at this time.
* * *
The saddest man on the range was Bill Sampson, of
the Central Station, who, in a moment of over-excitement,
shot on the wrong target thus losing 10 luscious points.
This threw Bill off for the rest of the day and he kept
moaning and groaning, with tears, too, about how he let
the team down and all that there stuff. Don't worry.
Bill, it's not too good for the blood pressure anyhow, the
rest of the team forgive you for it.

case of the shakes and was having one heck of a time
lining 'em up on the target. We hope that Leo doesn't
think he's the only one with the jitters because he should
have been with us in the spectators gallery and watched
some of the other boys going through the St. Vitus dance
gyrations.
* * *
Perhaps the shakes were caused by the boys having to
work all night and then come right out and shoot with a
minimum of sleep. We took it up with the range man-
agement about allowing the men just off the night shift
a few extra points to compensate — say about 25 or so.
All we got for our pains were pains in the seat of our
pants administered by a very stern and accurate kicking
rangemaster — the stinker!
Its just like Ben Garrett, Traffic Bureau, told us. "You
know," he sez, "I come out here during the week and
shoot swell scores — in fact I should be in the master first
class on account of my practice shooting but w^hen its
time to do or die for the station I just die." Ain't it the
truth, though?
* * *
And who was dat hansom" gentaman, well dressed and
with the straw skimmer on, yes? A real Beau Brummel,
sez the gang. None other than that shooting fashion plate,
Ed Preston, of the Bureau of Inspectors. Ed says that
in order to shoot well you must dress well. Glance at
the scores and you'll see Ed has something there as he
finished fourth in the Master First Class division.
* * *
And we never thought that Jack Chaney with all his
experience in match shooting would nearly miss a string
of fire. Jack knows all the tricks and idiosyncrasies of the
game and should know better but he was so enthralled
by talking to Beau Brummel he nearly cost his team
many points.
* * *
For many months our columns here, and in the police
range bulletin, has mentioned the mythical Siesta Club
and the innumerable men who have joined up. In order
to qualify one must have missed a string of fire, or, if
you so wish, a complete match. This Club has all the
best and worst shooters as members and at each match the

list just grows and grows. We do not know if member-

mental matches but we will check and find out. We par
ticularly want to know so that we may send a card to
Joe Marston, of the Park Station, who took his siesta
during the first string of timed fire shooting and he is
still wondering what its all about. Better ask Ireland, Joe,
he can tell you the answer.

Saw Ray Albrecht at the matches and tried our best to
catch up with the guy but ever>' time we got going some-
thing happened and we never did catch him. Why? Well,
many years ago we lived next door to him on Sixteenth
Avenue and hadn't seen him since we were put out for
non payment of rent and just wanted to renew acquaint-
ances, that's all. Sorr>' we missed you, Ray, but we'll sure
see you next time. How's the family, anyhow?

We were just casually glancing over that target 16
that was being perforated by Paul 0"Lear>' of the Bureau
of Inspectors, on which there were only 9 shots and Paul
claimed one was a double. All we could see was 9 shots
and if Paul saw a double — well, Paul saw a double!

Herb Morey, one of the bike boys, was having a time
for himself shooting those targets that jump all around
— or at least that's what Herb claims. Herb says he feels
a lot more comfortable on a baseball diamond than on
the firing line. Guess there is a difference, huh. Herb?
Bob McCusker had the darndest contraption for mount-
ing his 'scope we ever did see. After gazing, and puzzling,
all afternoon, we finally came up with the idea it might
have been his wife's stocking dryer he had purloined for
the occasion. What was it Herb?

Lodi, California, Named For A Race Horse
The City of Lodi, the second largest municipahty in
San Joaquin County was named after a race horse of that
name which was famous in turf history of the 1 860 s.
The post office authorities in Washington, D. C, did
not like the name Mokelumne Station because there were
two other places using the name Mokelumne in close
Chief Millard L. Fore
proximity. So they told the people of Mokelumne to get
themselves a new name. One day there was a great race
at the State Capitol city of Sacramento. One of the
entries in the important race was a horse named Lodi,
owned by Judge H. C. Bryan. This horse was the un-
disputed champion of the west. Some prominent citizens
from Mokelumne Station liked the name and submitted it
for replacing the original name given the city when it
was incorporated in 1869. So at an election held in 1874
the 360 citizens voted that it would be Lodi from
thence on.
And as Lodi the thriving city of some 16,000 per-
manent residents and an added 5000 transcient workers,
who meet a year round demand for help in harvesting
the crops has grown to a high eminence in the industry,
farming, and economic life of California.
Chief Millard L. Fore, who served as Constable of
the township of Lodi for 1 3 years before he was appointed
Chief of Police two years ago is mighty proud of the
way the people live up to the laws in his city, and equally
proud of the record his 17 man police force has served
the people.
Top crimes are few and far between and the fatalities
this year from traffic accidents amount to just one, when
a pedestrian was killed.
The big thing that gives his men some work is the
committers of misdemeanors, mostly drunks and simple
assaults. These are being greatly discouraged by the in-
troduction of Chief Fore of the old chain gang. If a
prisoner is found guilty of a misdemeanor he is sentenced
to a spell on the chain gang cleaning up the streets. A
term of this sort of thing seldom calls for a second helping
and the men are impressed with the fact that it is best that
they walk the straight and narrow path.
Lodi's 570 parking meters have done much to regulate
traffic and at the same time are turning into the city
treasury $100 a day in revenue.

FACTS ABOUT CITY CHARTER CHANGE No. "N"
VOTE FOR THIS AMENDMENT
On November 2, 1948, the people of San Francisco
will vote on Proposition "N" which is a joint amend-
ment to the charter affecting retirement provisions of the
members of the San Francisco police and fire departments.
For the past ten months the police and fire retirement
committee, composed of members from the San Francisco
Police Officers Association and members from the David
Scannel Club of the fire department, have put their un-
tiring efforts towards the preparation of a retirement
amendment which would be beneficial for the members
of both departments.
On July 28, 1948, a luncheon was held at the Fairmont
Hotel at which time representatives of all civic, labor and
tax-paying groups and the press were invited. There
were 12 5 in attendance at this gathering which signifies
a true representative cross-section of San Francisco.
At this luncheon the present retirement benefits of
the two safet>' agencies were described as well as the
requested improvements, together with the retirement
benefits now prevailing in all other cities of over 500,000
population in the United States and the eleven major
Pacific Coast cities. The discussion at this luncheon re-
sulted in a general feeling that certain changes and im-
provements were necessary in San Francisco.
After many meetings with these aforementioned inter-
ested and affected groups there was submitted a proposal
to the Board of Supervisors.
The municipal conference committee also submitted
their proposal.
The Board of Supervisors carefully analyzed the merits
of both proposals and submitted proposition "N"" by a
unanimous vote. It was their opinion that this suggested
charter amendment was a just compromise.
Their opinion was subsequently concurred in by both

Daily the list of endorsements continues to grow.
The following items explain the retirement provisions of
the police and fire departments as they are today and of
Proposition "N" which places both departments on an
absolute parity.
Item 1 — Reduces the years of service for the firemen
3H years, to 30 years or age 55 after serving at least 25
years, putting the two departments on parity.
Item 2 — Increases the allowance for disability in line
of duty from 50% to 75% for both departments. But
it should be pointed out that this 75% only applies until
a man is eligible for service retirement at which time the
amount is reduced to 50%.
Item 3 — Increases the allowance for disability not in-
curred in line of duty from l'/4% for each year of service
with a minimum of 25% after 10 years of service, to l'/4%
for each year of service with a minimum of 33V^% after
