1970 Press Photo Judge Staats, left, rubs injured head from assault by Gibbon

Alameda County Superior Court Judge Redmond Staats, Jr., knocked from his court room chair Friday by George D. Gibbon, 19, said "this is one of the hazards of being a jurist in these most troubled times." At left the Judge rubs the egg-sized lump on the back of his head which Gibbon, right, of Berkeley inflicted before bailiffs could separate the two. Gibbon was being sentenced for assaulting a police officer when he attacked the judge.
