Description
Today's policeman is no longer a "flatfoot" or a "cop"--he is a professional, William W. Shaw, director of the city department of civil service, said Saturday. He talked at graduation exercises for Cadet Class No. 20 of the New Orleans police department academy at City Hall. Superintendent Joseph I.
