WHEN A POLICE OFFICER sheds his uniform at the end
of his watch, he doesn't shed his responsibility as a
policeman along with it. He is "on-duty" 24 hours
a day. Two recent incidents in which officers risked their
lives are dramatic illustrations of this.
Off-duty Officer Hutchie T. Moore, 10th District, was in
a gas station about 0045 hours on 14 January, talking with
the attendant and an attendant's friend. A man walked in,
used the telephone, looked around and stepped out. Immediately
two other men entered. One of them drew a revolver
and said, "This is a stickup," and ordered them to the rear
of the station.
Just then, two customers, unaware of the robbery, entered
the station. The gunman fired two shots into the floor and
ordered them to join the others.
While one of the robbers held all five at gunpoint, a second
went through the attendant's pockets and took $35. Then he
started to go through Officer Moore's pockets. Moore grabbed
the man, using him as a shield, and as they struggled, the
other robber opened fire. He hit both his accomplice and
Moore. Moore was wounded in the lower body; the accomplice
was hit three times, once in the center of the forehead.
The gunman and first suspect fled. The wounded robber died
a few hours later at Cook County Hospital. Moore was taken
to Mt. Sinai Hospital in critical condition.
The dead man's identification was found in his pockets,
along with papers listing names and addresses of friends.
Through these, detectives from Area #4 Robbery and
Homicide/Sex traced the other two suspects. Both of these
men were arrested the same day and have been charged with
murder, attempted murder and armed robbery.
Two weeks after the shooting, Officer Hutchie Moore
is in good condition and displays good spirits in the
hospital.

Officer Gary Hellinger (r) receives a new gun from
WBBM-TV news broadcaster Jerry Harper.
OFF-DUTY POLICEMAN Gary Hettinger, 17th District, was
in a lounge with his fiancee on 21 December when two
robbers entered, brandished guns and announced a holdup.
The customers, including Hettinger, surrendered their wallets
and the bartender emptied the cash register.
The two men grabbed the money and were about to leave
through the rear when Hettinger motioned the customers
aside and opened fire. One robber collapsed immediately.
The second turned around and started shooting at Hettinger.
Both men emptied their guns; the officer then' rushed the
robber, struggled with him and finally struck him on the head
with the butt of his gun.
The first holdup man was pronounced dead on arrival at
Northwest Hospital. The second, according to investigating
detectives, has been arrested 13 times since 1961.
Hettinger was unscathed, but his gun was ruined; WBBM­
TV presented him with a new one for his heroic action. *

MISCELLANEOUS INCIDENT ?
There are such things as large families,
but when a new birth is announced
on a Miscellaneous Incident Reportthat's
being a little too nonchalant. Special
Projects reports that one officer requested
the new baby certificate on a
Miscellaneous Incident form.
If you want a Junior Member of the
Department Certificate, please fill out a
Personnel Change Notice and send it to
Special Projects and Research Section,
Personnel Division.
Grzeskiewicz's two boys are both
Eagle Scouts; his daughter has achieved
the Girl Scouts' Curved Bar-which is
the equivalent of the Eagle Scout; an9
his wife is a trained Girl Scout leader.
"We're a Scouting family," he says.

an on-view arrest of four suspicious
men. The officers observed the men
near parked cars in the parking lot
at 2222 South State Street. Officers
McClain, Fekete and Regan gave
chase and apprehended the offenders.
Investigation disclosed that
these four men were removing a
large quantity of cigarettes, meats
and groceries from three parked
cars in the lot. The subjects were
arrested and transported into the
21st District for processing and interrogation.
It was learned that
these four men had burglarized the
A 6. P store at 2328 1z W . Roosevelt
Road on 20 December '65. It was
also learned that a fire was initiated
to cover the burglary at the store,
and that the property stolen was
valued at $2,000. A search of the
cars produced an acetylene torch,
cutting equipment, and burglary
tools. From the description of the
case, Officers Regan, Fekete, and
McClain did one helluva job. Congratulations
to these officers for
their fine performance . . . Congratulations
to Commander Eg an

Intra-Department Basketball League
Did you ever wonder how much
ground is covered by players during a
season's play? This crossed our minds
too, and as close as we can figure, our
fellows logged 1,200 miles, scoring
3,738 points in 39 games during the
first round of play. Incidentally, each
game is played in four 8-minute quarters,
so our guys traveled at 148 M.P.H.
Not bad for a bunch of flatfoots!
If you've been missing this fast action,
you had better make plans to take the
wife and kids to our championship
games starting on Sunday, 7 March, at
Foster Park, 8400 South Loomis Avenue.
The way the league is stacking up,
it's anybody's guess as to what four
teams will join the 7th, 11 th, 20th, and
21 st Districts (First Round Champs)
in the Quarter Finals. Remember, it's
your rooting that will route your boys
to victory.
Camera Bugs, Attention!
Watch for an important announcement
in the next issue. Big plans are
under way for a seminar in all phases

"The Road Not Taken"
In 1936, James A. Boyle joined the
Chicago Police Department. That was 30
years ago, and today, 83-year old Mr.
Boyle is still active in his "retirement
job".
One of Mr. Boyle's hobbies is writing
poetry. For years, his verses have
amused and informed fellow workers in
Record Inquiry as well as delighted his
other friends and family (two daughters,
one son, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.)
Below is only one example of
Mr. Boyle's wit and wisdom.
ADVICE TO THE AGE-WORN
When you reach the age of fifty,
Fifty-five or maybe sixt)"
There's not much to do around the
house.
Fl'om you, work is not expected,
So if Y01l would be respected,
Be as quiet and as humble as a mouse.
It matters not how good your wish is,
Ne ver Iry to wash the dirhes.
Let your motto be "Do less and never
more."
And for goodness gracious sake,
When you eat a piece of cake,
"Please don't drop the crumbs 011 my
clean kitchen floor."
Never tfy to be progressive,
If )'ou do you'll make a mess of
Any task, it matters not how small it be.
And if you want a sample,
Or a horrible example,
lust 'stand back and take a look at me.
Y Ott will have a lot less sorroUJ
If you don't think of tomorrow.
You have had your share of worrying
and care.
So relax and be contented
And forever be cemented
To a nice soft l'estful easy chair.
