[TB]  It's been reported that Lucy Gerold (sp?) is an internal
candidate for the Chief job.  She has spent virtually her entire career
in administration.  After a decade or so in admin positions she did go
thru the Police Academy but doesn't have enough time as a patrol
officer to qualify to be a Sargent.

So maybe we would let a non-cop run the Police Department.  Maybe we
should let a non-cop run the place.
