Harris also drew criticism for his retention of two relative con- servatives in powerful City Hall posts - City Administrator Guy Larcom and Police Chief Walter Krasn. Ile defends both decisions: "Guy was a more liberal city administrator than most people realize. Most people don't know what his role in the BAM strike and a lot of police things was. At the time of Kent State I couldn't have held back a lot of forces that were moving without Guy. Even Walter was pretty good. He talks a ferocious game - p f. 0 Pield Enterprises, Inc., 1972 PSST .

But Harris' pragmatic rela- tionship with conservatives in his administration - Larcom in par- ticular - was not without its weak moments. Harris clashed with Larcom when the City Ad- ministrator wrote a report in the fall of 1970 clearing a police pa- trolman of charges that he had- beaten or attempted to beat a student, T. R. Harrison, during the BAM strike. "I thought he was covering up," Harris remembers. "He on- ly ran the film (or the incident) at full speed. At full speed things look like he described them (in I the report). But at slow speed they sure don't." While the city's left damned Harris for alleged police brutal- ity, the right was attacking him for not. being brutal enough. Street riots on South Univer- sity during Harris' first summer as mayor enraged white middle- class conservatives. On July.14, 1969, 400 of them marched on City Hall to demand that police come down hard on young peo- ple who smoked pot, danced, and fornicated in the streets. By the fall, under the leader- ship of ultra-conservative Jack Garris and his Concerned Citi- zens of Ann- Arbor, the anti- Harris sentiment had snowballed into a full fledged recall move- ment. Its issues: shackling of the police, rock concerts in the parks, and Harris' refusal to sup- port a GOP-sponsored anti-ob- scenity, ordinance. Harris remember this as the worst period in his term as mayor. On City Council, the Republi- can opposition was led by Joe Edwards, conservative Third Ward councilman, and James Stephenson - then a councilman from the Fourth Ward; now, the city's new mayor. "He (Stephenson) and Joe used to compete as to who was the most conservative. Certainly there was no one to the right of Stephenson on money matters and he was more conservative than Joe on rock concerts and obscenity," Harris recalls. Even within his own party, Harris did not enjoy total sup- port. Traditional black First Ward Councilman H. C. Curry defected from his party over the issue of civil liberties versus the community's morals, Harris remembers Curry as, "A 60-year-old building trade member. A straight-laced sort of Southern Baptist. "He was just horrified that he was associated with a bunch of people who stood for nudity at rock concerts and smoking pot. His general feeling was sort of 'My, God! What are these young Democrats doing?'. "In the meantime, Stephenson was very busy flattering Curry outrageously, nominating him as mayor pro-tem, trying to woo him.," Although the recall campaign failed, Harris and the liberal Democrats took a beating at the polls in the 1970 election. The GOP ran a hard-hitting campaign, stressing their charge that the Harrisites had turned the city over to a coalition of hippies, street freaks and revo- lutionaries. A now-famous cartoon ad in the Ann Arbor News got the mes- sage across. It depicted a mob of scruffy, hairy, bomb-toting youths, with a hapless, hand- cuffed policeman standing by.. It was captioned: "The revolution- ists have spread the word. 'Come to Ann Arbor, Michigan this summer. It's an open city under the permissive policies of the Democrats.' Isn't that a riot?" The result was a total reversal of the 1969 election. Four Re- publicans and only one Demo- crat were elected.. The Demo- crats lost the Second, Third and Fifth Wards, all of which they had won the year before. "They really did a job on us," Harris recalls. "The Republi- cans were playing on the same themes as the recall campaign except in a little more sophis- ticated manner. It was James Stephenson and Brian Connely instead of Jack Garris and they really creamed us on building a too-expensive bus system and handcuffing the police. By the next year and the end of Harris' first term, though, the mood in the city was changing once again. Stephenson, who had clearly emerged as the city's leading Re- publican voice, was the concen- sus choice of the party leader- ship as the man to challenge Harris' re-election. But, the untimely death of his wife, removed Stephenson from the race and a weakling party establishment entry, Louis Bel- cher, lost the GOP primary to Concerned Citizen leader Jack Garris. Garris was the classic wrong candidate at the wrong time. His blustery moralism and threats of impending doom at the hands of hairy revolutionar- ies had gone out of style. The moderate wing of the GOP pub- licly deserted him and the rest of the party just didn't vote. Harris won in a landslide.. ACTiONy is a grov, rroveruerso wz :e: -o' ti t :to ez. eo help themselves.
