Description
Officer R. E. Franklin said it made no difference whose car it was, it was in a no-parking zone--by a fire hydrant yet--and deserved a ticket. The car belongs to Police Chief Bill Myers, who had driven to Veterans Hospital Thursday to welcome the family of an ailing police sergeant being transferred there. Also ticketed were Fraternal Order of Police President Jimmy Williams and a Birmingham News photographer's car. The chief said he would pay the fine.
