There I go with the wrong
n me. Sorry ... big boy,"
Wichit aid. "You Iway
h ve uch good ide and
ometimes I just n ed to talk
o I can ort out the facts."
"So what facts do you need
to ort out thi morning?" 1
asked.
"Now that we have men
tioned facts," Wichita aid. "I
would like to know all the par
ticulars surrounding the 17-
year-old youth who wa killed
by one,--or was it two?
Highland Park Safety Officers
and also why the youth who
was lain after the high
school's first basketball game
�f the year has been so hush
hush."
"Well," I said. "Call
whoever is in charge and ask
that person, not me."
"But I did, Wrote. Oop !
Big boy. I did." Wichita aid.
"When Director Emerson left,
I was told Inspector Yapp was
in charge but he never returned
my cans."
"THAT'S STRANGE," 1
said. "Especially when Direc
tor Emerson was always will
ing to talk."
"Yeah! I thought it was
strange too," Wichita said.
"But maybe he has heard one
of the rumors that's floating
around."
"What rumor is that?" I
asked.
"Oh, Just that Mr. Porter is
looking outside of the depart
ment for a replacement for
Director Emerson."
"Come on, Wichita," I said.
"You don't believe that, do
you?"
"Big boy! It ain't what I
believe, it's what the safety of
ficers believe. And from what
I've heard they are beginning
to sulk."
"Well. Well." I said. "What
other little backyard talk have
you heard?"
"Oh. You know. The
usual," Wichita aid. "Like
everyone was not satisfied
with Jesse Jackson's media
bli tz and Deborah McGriff has
her priorities in the wrong
place."

"YEAHt I'VE HEARD

, • myself," I aid. "And McGriff
needs to' unde rs tand that
quality education is what this
city needs, not tea-party wran
gling. And brother Jesse
seems to be power-building
for the Democratic Conven
tion, ,which is all right, but the
poor and the homele need
more than crumbs. And
whether or not Mayor Porter
keep his promise to the voters
is one thing but open govern
ment is another and that i the
bottom llne."
