By ANITA ROBERTSON
This reporter was covering the police blotter one morning recently when Chief of Police Mark Stephenson, came into the station. In the course of conversation he found I had never seen the jail. Perceiving my curiosity, he offered to conduct me on a tour of our local law enforcement premises.
Since being duly initiated into the mysteries of the protective side of our city's government, I'll try to tell those of you who have never seen the inside of a jail just what happens.
We'll take a hypothetical case of drunkenness (which is the largest percentage of arrests made in Anaheim) as an example. The man is brought into the station by the arresting officers, locked in the booking cage, booked, personal property such as wallet, glasses, jewelry and etc., are put in a locker, and he is locked in a cell to sober up. When sobered, his name and address and other statistics are obtained and a complaint is signed. Then he is locked in one of the two cells in the small courtyard behind the station.
The large cell is about 18x15 feet, holds eight cots, which are bunk style and are made of metal. Two khaki army blankets are given each prisoner. A smaller cell, about 18x10 feet wide, holds four bunks. The cells are of concrete and contain only the bunk beds, a wash bowl and a toilet.
A prisoner is confined to his cell, usually with one or more companions of doubtful reputation, until morning when he is arraigned before Judge Bonnat and tried. If the verdict means more time in jail, or a jury trial, the prisoner is transferred to the county jail.
Due to the lack of facilities to take care of a female prisoner, a woman is put through the same are extensive records in pictures of cases handled by the Anaheim police from way back when. Downstairs, almost underneath the dark room, is Lt. Taylor's office where his "wanted" poster's hang from the walls, spittoons decorate the corners of the room, and samples of poisons, narcotics and barbituates fill drawers, along with data on the latest methods and scientific information on how to detect clues and evidence.
If anyone should ask Lt. Taylor what exactly his job is, he'd probably reply, "I investigate all felonies and collect evidence to present to the court." He calls himself lucky, but he invariably comes through with the evidence.
Then there is our Chief of Police, Mark Stephenson, who has held that title since April 1946. Chief Stephenson is one of those men who give the impression of humanness and stability. He's intelligent, methodical and very pleasant. He has worked his way up starting as a patrolman in 1928, taking time out to serve with the U.S. Navy as Chief Petty Officer from '42 to '45. When he came back, he was promoted to Assistant Chief of Police under T. L. Wilder. He is married and has two sons, 14-year-old David and 26-year-old Richard. He claims to be a fisherman and says the eight albacore he brought home this week-end prove it.
Back in the courtyard again, there is a small room (it used to be a cell) which has been converted into the money counting room. Here the money collected from the parking meters is put through a machine to separate the nickles from the pennies and then through another machine which counts it.
The main office of the police station is the reception desk where a desk lieutenant is always on duty taking complaints, answering and sending calls on the send-
A prisoner is confined to his cell, usually with one or more companions of doubtful reputation, until morning when he is arraigned before Judge Bonnat and tried. If the verdict means more time in jail, or a jury trial, the prisoner is transferred to the county jail.
Due to the lack of facilities to take care of a female prisoner, a woman is put through the same process mentioned above, and then is escorted by a matron and an officer to the county jail to spend the night, and then is brought back in the morning to be arraigned.
At the time of arrest a receipt is given the prisoner for all property taken from him. When he is released he must present the receipt and the property will be refunded.
Contained in the little group of rooms assigned to the police force is a dark room, where Lieutenant Tommy Taylor, police investigator, develops and prints photos he has taken of everything from homicides to petty thefts.

The main office of the police station is the reception desk where a desk lieutenant is always on duty taking complaints, answering and sending calls on the sending an receiving station, answering phone calls and taking lost children in custody until their parents are notified. He types out the daily police report, keeps track of all police cars on duty and is the central point of contact for county and local authorities.
Just around the corner of the room is the desk belonging to Barbara Fielden, secretary, part-time matron, sympathetic listener, and buddy to the officers.
The body of the police force is made up of 10 officers, patrolmen, sergeants, lieutenants, and motor officers. Patrolmen are Wolverton, Spencer, Wilson, Rogers, McKenzie, Brawn, Hoag, Eggleston, and Klosterhoff. Vipond, DeCock and Plaisted are motor officers, and the three sergeants are Hoxie, Curtis and Fisher. A group of four men fill the lieutenants boots: Sherman, Fiscus, Taylor and Miranda.
Besides the regular police force there is a group of citizens interested in public service who train as reserve officers. These men are Barnett, Sheffner, Johnson, DeHart, Hutchinson, Campbell, Bradley, Long, Fischle, Cozza, Farless, Muro, Pifer, Rude, Snodgrass, Stroud and Johnson. These men are unpaid for the time they put verted into the money counting room. Here the money collected from the parking meters is put through a machine to separate the nickles from the pennies and then through another machine which counts it.

PCL Begins Move Toward Outlaw Status
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)—Rumblings of a new baseball war were heard over the Pacific Coast today.
Directors of the big, Triple-A Pacific Coast league voted unanimously last night to quit organized baseball unless their demands for abolition of the draft and recognition of major league equality were accepted.
The drastic steps culminated a five year struggle to free the Coast circuit from the draft law which permits major league clubs to pick up Triple-A players for $10,000. The Coast loop was the last of the minor league to accept the draft, agreeing to it in 1931.
One bitter complaint against the draft was the case of George Metkovich, an outfielder purchased by Oakland from the Boston Red Sox for $25,000. After a sparkling season, Metkovich was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates for $10,000.
Representatives of seven clubs agreed on the history-making resolution which could result in a divorce from the National Association of Professional Baseball leagues unless the terms are met.
The resolution stated that if a new agreement with the National and American leagues as well as the National Association is made, the Coast league will sever all connections. It means in effect the PCL will turn outlaw and operate independently.
The last league in this country to buck organized ball was the belated federal league. It opened in 1914 and folded after the 1915 season but managed to throw a scare into the National and American leagues.
The directors, in a lengthy resolution, pointed out that the major-minor league agreement which is binding on the PCL because of its membership in the National Association of Professional Leagues expires January 12, 1952.
The resolution expressed a desire to make new agreements with the two big leagues and the National association, "which will give the PCL a new status and reasonable opportunity to attain major league ranks in the near future."
In conclusion, the resolution stated that "in the event such agreements are not made on or before December 31, 1951, the Pacific Coast league will terminate its membership."

Castoffs Again May Give Yankees Push Necessary to Grab Pennant
(By The Associated Press)
The New York Yankees won the 1949-50 pennants with late season acquisitions from the National league. Today the Bombers are banking on another Johnny-comelately from the senior circuit to insure success in their current drive for the American league flag.
Johnny Sain, veteran righthander, is the latest Yankee importation from the National league. The Yanks acquired Sain from the Boston Braves yesterday and celebrated the purchase by founcing the Browns, 15-2 under the lights in St. Louis. The win gave them a first place tie with Cleveland, which dropped a 3-0 decision to Philadelphia in the afternoon.
Sain, picked up for $50,000 and minor league pitcher Lew Burdette, will join the Yanks in Washington Saturday. The 32-year-old vet is tabbed for relief duty. He won only five and lost 13 for the Braves this season. Saip, a 20-game winner three times, was waived out of the National league. To make room for Sain the Yankees released Jack Kramer, another veteran righthander.
The Yanks dipped into the National league in August of 1949 and bought Johnny Mize from the New York Giants. Mize's big bat helped win the pennant and also the World Series. Last year the Yank's procured Johnny Hopp from Pittsburgh in September and Hopp's pinch-hitting and pinch-running figured prominently in the Yanks' successful defense of their laurels.
Allie Reynolds stopped the Browns on two hits as the Yanks closed out their final tour of the west with a 7-4 record.
Gus Zernial and Alex Kellner teamed up to beat the Indians. Zernial sent two runs home with his 29th homer and doubled and scored the third Philadelphia run. Kellner blanked the Indians on five safeties in out-pitching Mike Garcia.
In other American league games the Boston Red Sox turned back the Detroit Tigers, 7-5, and the Washington Senators nosed out the Chicago White Sox, 2-1 in 13 innings.
In the National league, the pace-setting Brooklyn Dodgers humbled the Cincinnati Reds, 13-1; the runner-up New York Giants downed the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-1; the St. Louis Cardinals nipped the Philadelphia Phils, 3-2; and the Boston Braves defeated the Chicago Cubs, 4-1.
