              <text>Page 1: January 8, 1965&#13;
&#13;
Mr. Clifford Anchor, Director-General&#13;
The North-American Broadcasting Corp.&#13;
The Jackson Building&#13;
1929 Irving Street&#13;
San Francisco, California&#13;
&#13;
Dear Mr. Anchor:&#13;
&#13;
I certainly appreciate hearing from you in connection with the subject matter contained in your recent letter, and in connection therewith, may I at this point state that I have nothing but respect for all men of the cloth; however, in the interest of objectivity, the following I know will be of interest to you.&#13;
&#13;
This department, by virtue of law, is obligated to uphold and enforce the provisions of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, and to take whatever steps necessary to eliminate causes of violations, and, as well, to take steps when necessary to diligently inform against and prosecute persons who may commit violations of the liquor laws. This department is bound by law and has been asked by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control to give assistance in the enforcement of such laws affecting the dispensing of liquor in order that some of the present and future problems relating to same might be eliminated. In fact, the duty is so clearly spelled out that if an officer refused or neglected to take such steps, he might well be guilty of a misdemeanor.&#13;
&#13;
As part of the event in question, liquor was dispensed and consumed on the premises in question under a license duly and properly issued by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control of this state. &#13;
&#13;
Page 2: Members of this department, by virtue of the fact that they are peace officers, are duly bound and charged with the responsibility of enforcing the provisions of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, and in order to fulfill and exercise such responsibility have been specifically empowered under the law to visit and inspect the premises of any licensee during the time within the liquor privilege so authorized is in operation.&#13;
&#13;
In view of the foregoing, it is unquestionable that the acts of certain persons who restrained police officers from entering the indicated locale certainly were not in the public interest, and were in fact contrary to the established law. Certainly once legally within the premises, members of this department were not required to blind themselves to obvious violations of the law, and arrests effected by them were consistent with the obligations placed upon us.&#13;
&#13;
To characterize the fulfillment of a legal obligation, or to make it synonymous with harassment is manifestly unfair.&#13;
&#13;
Once again, your interest in this matter was certainly appreciated, and I am sure that once all the facts pertaining to this case are fully aired in court, a fuller understanding of the problems that confront this department will be more readily understood.&#13;
&#13;
Very truly yours,&#13;
Thomas J. Cahill&#13;
Chief of Police</text>

Incidents at a Homosexual Benefit&#13;
Angry Ministers Rip Police&#13;
by Donovan Bess&#13;
&#13;
Ministers of four Protestant denominations accused the Police Department yesterday of "intimidation, broken promises and obvious hostility" in breaking up a private benefit for homosexuals at California Hall Friday night.&#13;
&#13;
The ministers co-sponsored the event. They charged they, too, had been harassed by police officials and questioned at length about their "theological concepts."&#13;
&#13;
The hall was attended by nearly 600 homosexuals and their friends, and a dozen ministers, to raise funds to promote "a dialogue between the church and the homosexual." Tickets for the event were arranged through sponsoring organizations.&#13;
&#13;
POLICE&#13;
Police saturated the hall with from 20 to 40 police officers arrested six persons, "terrified" the guests and broke up the party an hour early, the ministers said at a press conference.&#13;
&#13;
Those arrested included three attorneys retained by the sponsoring Council for Religion and the Homosexual. They argued with inspectors from the sex-crimes detail about their attendance at the meeting and were charged with obstructing police officers.&#13;
&#13;
The spokesmen at yesterday's press conference included the Rev. Ted McIlvenna, young-adult director of the Methodist Glide Foundation here, Canon Robert Cromey, a special assistant to Episcopal Bishop James A. Pike, the Rev. Charles Lewis of the Lutheran North Beach Mission, and the Rev. Clarence Colwell of the United Church of Christ.&#13;
&#13;
NEGOTIATIONS&#13;
They said the benefit had been planned after extended by "strained" negotiations with top police officials. But they charged, the police acted "in bad faith"—for example by having a police photographer snap pictures of most of the arriving guests when they had promised not to. &#13;
&#13;
Inspectors Jack Toomey, Rudolph Nieto and Richard Castro reported Friday their forces had moved in because a dance permit had been issued and "tickets were being sold publicly."&#13;
&#13;
The Rev. Mr. McIlvenna said, however, "no tickets were sold at the door that I know of." He said he and the Rev. A Cecil Williams, also a Methodist, were questioned last week "by the whole vice squad."&#13;
&#13;
Police Chief Thomas Cahill withheld his reaction until learning more of the details.&#13;
&#13;
But, he said, his men were required to police the affair after they understood tickets were sold at the door and liquor was sold indoors.&#13;
&#13;
"The police department," said the Rev. Mr. Williams, "wanted to deal more in theology rather than open up a dialogue.&#13;
&#13;
"...They looked at the rings on our fingers and said, 'We see you're married—how do your wives accept this?&#13;
&#13;
"They told us," said the Rev. Mr. McIlvenna, "that they thought we were being used by various homosexual organizations in this city."&#13;
&#13;
The Rev. Fred Bird of St. John's Methodist Church said he was threatened with arrest while escorting two persons to a car in front of the hall on Polk street.&#13;
&#13;
The attorneys arrested were Elliot Leighton, 34, of 35 Arroyo Seco, Millabrae; Evander Smith, 42, of 6 Lloyd street. Arrested on a charge of obstruction was Nancy May, 28, a claims adjuster for the Teamsters' security fund, of 814 Steiner street.&#13;
&#13;
Just after midnight, two men were arrested on charges of disorderly conduct. They were Konrad A. Osterreich, 28, an office manager, of Los Angeles, and Jon Borset, 35, a department store display man, of 1370 Pine street.&#13;
&#13;
But, commented the Rev. Mr. McIlvenna, "it was a very well-run ball. After the police forced their way in, it took them more than an hour to find anything wrong."</text>

              <text>Uproar Over Dance&#13;
&#13;
Seven Protestant ministers accused San Francisco police yesterday of "deliberate harassment" in their breaking up of a Friday night fund raising ball for the benefit of homosexuals.&#13;
&#13;
"We will support our attorneys in all they want to do about this situation," said the Rev. Ted McIlvenna, spokesman for the Council for Religion and the Homosexual, the ministerial committee which sponsored the "Mardi Gras" ball at California Hall.&#13;
&#13;
The attorneys—Herbert Donaldson, 37, Evander Smith, 42, and Elliot Leighton, 34—said they will file false arrest suits. They were hauled away to Northern Station after protesting what they termed an "invasion" by plainclothes police into a private ball. The charge against each attorney was interfering with an office.&#13;
&#13;
Police also arrested Nancy A. May, 28, the ballroom ticket taker; John P. Borset, 35, of 1370 Pine St. a window dresser for a downtown department store; and Conrad A. Osterreich, 28, office manager for a Los Angeles insurance firm.&#13;
&#13;
Miss May was charged with obstructing officers and Borset and Osterreich were charged with lewd conduct on the dance floor after an official warning against public intimacies.&#13;
&#13;
As for other guests, many males were in eye-dazzling evening gowns, and a policeman was heard to estimate that "out of 100 women, half were the genuine article."&#13;
&#13;
Yesterday, the seven ministers called in reporters to explain the aims and purposes of the Council for Religion and the Homosexual and to protest what they called "bad faith" on the part of police who parked their patrol cars at the ballroom entrance and photographed the guests as they arrived.</text>

TOWARDS QUAKER VIEW OF SEX&#13;
&#13;
An essay by a group of Friends to be published by the Friends Home Service Committee, Friends House, Euston Road, N.W.1.  74 Pages, Price 3s.6d.&#13;
&#13;
PUBLICATION DATE MONDAY 18th FEBRUARY 1963,&#13;
&#13;
Please note that the views expressed in this essay are those of the individual Friends who contributed to it. The pamphlet is not an official policy statement by the Religious Society of Friends.&#13;
&#13;
This essay has been written by a group of 11 members of the Society of Friends, of whom all except one are married and parents, three of them being grandparents. Professionally their training ranges from psychiatry to the law and two of them are headmasters. This unofficial group came together first in 1957 as a result of being confronted by the problems of young Quaker students who were facing homosexual difficulties. They wanted to help but found themselves ill-equipped in knowledge and doubtful whether the Christian church's traditional view, in Quaker phrase, spoke to the condition of those in sexual trouble. What is written here is the fruit of many discussions over the past five years within the group and by consultation with others. Every meeting of the group, without exception, began with a long period of silent worship, after the manner of the Society of Friends. The essay is written by a group of Quakers for Quakers but it is hoped that it may be of service far outside the bounds of the Society of Friends. It is an attempt to find what the Quaker faith has to say to those in distress, some of whom are the victims of blackmail, and to the young who find themselves in a world where ethical and religious codes are being questioned all the time.&#13;
&#13;
The group soon found that the study of homosexuality and its moral problems could not be divorced from a survey of the whole field of sexual activity, so that after an account of the basic assumptions on which the exercise of the group was founded, the essay describes normal sexual development before proceeding in Chapter III to deal with the specific problem of homosexuality which brought the group together. Sources of professional help, the origins of sexual behavior, and some sexual deviations are considered in three appendices, which are followed by a book list and a glossary of technical terms. After setting out the facts as carefully as they know how, the group in Chapter IV examines the need for a new morality.&#13;
&#13;
There are certain historical characteristics of the Society of Friends that out to lead to a clear understanding of the significance of the sex relationship,, especially its testimony to the quality of the sexes. Not less important is the attitude towards authority. For Friends, God's will for man can never be circumscribed by any statement, however inspired; the last word has never yet been spoken on the implications of Christianity, and every religious expression is open to critical examination. Quakerism involves a continuous search for truth. Lastly, it is equally important to remember that Quakerism has never accepted a distinction between sacred and secular.&#13;

 Pullen Memorial Baptist Church &#13;
is an LGBT-affirming, courageous, &#13;
authentic community of faith. &#13;
Yes, you read that right – we are Baptists.&#13;
&#13;
We are not afraid to struggle with difficult questions of faith. After lengthy discussion and prayer, in 1992, Pullen endorsed unqualified acceptance of gay/lesbian Christians. Within a year Pullen was excluded from the Raleigh Baptist Association, the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, and the Southern Baptist Convention.&#13;
&#13;
We are proud to be a founding congregation of the LGBT affirming Alliance of Baptists and early members of the Association of Welcoming and Affirming Baptists.&#13;

              <text>THE COUNCIL ON&#13;
RELIGION AND THE HOMOSEXUAL&#13;
Objective: To promote a continuing dialogue between the religious community and homosexuals.&#13;
&#13;
In order to promote a continuing dialogue between religious communities and in endeavoring to understand better the broad spectrum of variation within&#13;
human sexuality, The Council on Religion and the Homosexual sets for these goals and purposes:&#13;
&#13;
1. To orient members of religious communities (both lay persons and clergy) on aspects of homosexuality (i.e., physical, economic, legal, emotional, etc.) in&#13;
accordance with homosexual testimony and available scientific data;&#13;
2. To encourage members of the religious communities to provide opportunities for homosexuals of both sexes to present their views of homosexuality to various religious organizations;&#13;
3. To open up channels of communication so that members of the religious communities may engage in dialogue with homosexuals in order to bring about new and deeper understandings of sexuality, morality, ethical behavior, and the life of religious faith;&#13;
4. To study systematically the deeper dynamics of authentic human relationships from biblical, theological and social science perspectives;&#13;
5. To engage in research which will further understanding of homosexuality within the larger framework of the present sexual revolution;&#13;
6. To enlist the aid of religious publications and other media in working toward a broadened editorial policy including more accurate and objective articles on homosexuality;&#13;
