City official urges use
of new photo radar
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A city
councilman hopes the city can speed
up its crackdown on traffic violators
by adopting a photo radar system he
says saves lives and is foolproof
against radar detectors.
Councilman Ed Harrington said
police are evaluating the results of a
Jan. 9 test of the new device, which
photographs a speeding vehicle’s li
cense plate and the driver’s face.
The device also registers the
speed, time, date and location of the
violation.
The device has been used in other
Texas cities, but Harrington hopes
San Antonio will be the nation’s first
major city to use it.
“It eliminates high-speed chases
and officer-violator confrontations,”
Harrington said Wednesday. “And
one of these systems can do the work
of about 15 officers.”
Harrington said police officials so
far are pleased with the tests and he
expects the system to he adopted
and placed in wide-scale use by late
April.
He said there would be no capital
cost because the city would lease the
machines from the manufacturer,
which would process the film, serv
ice the machines and mail out the
tickets in exchange for a percentage
of the Fines.
Harrington said he will propose
that any increased revenue from the
new device be used exclusively for
traffic-safety projects.
He said the city council might
have to increase speeding fines to
cover the cost of leasing the new
equipment.
The city council also might have
to change an ordinance so that regis
tered car owners, to whom the tick
ets would be mailed, would be re
sponsible for speeding violations, he
said.
Fernando Flores of the Police Re
search and Planning Bureau said
that in Friendswood, near Houston,
the photo radar system has been
used for several months and the per
centage of convictions has increased.
“The court always rules in favor
of the camera,” he said.

Medical officials seek removal
of unfit doctors in state has pi tali
AUSTIN (AP) — State medical
officials are asking the Legislature to
help them get rid of unfit doctors in
state-operated hospitals.
The State Board of Medical Ex
aminers has been forced to file com
plaints twice in the past five months
against doctors working in hospitals
operated by the Texas Department
of Mental Health and Mental Retar
dation, the Austin American-States-
man reported Thursday.
Until last month, the Big Spring
State Hospital had employed for two
years a psychiatrist suffering from
Alzheimer’s disease who had been
fired by the state prison system for
patient abuse, the American-States-
man said. He later died of a drug
overdose.
In November, the board that li
censes Texas doctors revoked the li
cense of a psychiatrist who had been
working at the Austin State Hospital
despite a felony conviction in
Maryland for distributing large
amounts of drugs to addicts, the
newspaper said.
No Texas law requires state agen
cies to report incompetent or unfit
doctors to the state medical board,
and no law requires private hospitals
to report such doctors to the board.
“That’s part of the problem,” said
Paul Gavia, chief attorney for the
medical examiners board.
The board is asking the Legis
lature to change state law to require
a report to the licensing board if
there is any reasonable doubt of a
physician’s ability, Gavia said.
David Pharis, coordinator of the
federal court panel that reviews state
mental hospitals for U.S. District
Judge Barefoot Sanders#!!
said the quality of doctorsiil
hospitals is a real concern i
Pharis said the panel will
vestigate the quality of hos[®
