Original camera footage edited for broadcast for KNTV San Jose Channel 11 news. Includes national, local, and sports coverage. The broadcast script for this date did not survive.
Reel 1:
Segment 1 (sound): Shot of California Attorney General Thomas C. Lynch and Santa Clara Counsel Spencer M. Williams speaking together at an outdoor function at the Mark Thomas Inn in Monterey. Lynch is interviewed by KNTV's Monterey reporter Dennis Rowedder, asked his reaction to the Supreme Court limiting interrogation in custody [Miranda v. Arizona]. "Well, I'm completely surprised. I did not think the Supreme Court would go as far as they did. We were surprised originally when the Dorado case came down in California [People v. Dorado], but this case goes further than Dorado in many instances." Report asks, "Do you think it's being made more and more difficult for the law enforcement agencies to do their job?" Lynch replies, "There's no question about it. In the last 10 years the decisions of the court have made the job much more difficult. I'm sure that any police officer anywhere in the States would tell you that." Williams is then interviewed on the same subject. "It is going to be more difficult to handle prosecutions, apprehend and convict criminals because of this decision -- the ruling -- I haven't read the opinion but I've read excerpts of the opinion, and apparently now the person cannot be questioned at all until he's been told his right to counsel...and it's going to be very difficult to obtain evidence necessary for prosecution." Reporter asks, "Do you think this is hamstringing the law enforcement agencies?" Williams replies, "It's making it more difficult -- these decisions are -- constantly making it more difficult. We will live within the laws and this is our job, we will abide by these laws, but I think the thing we must look forward to is how we can change these decisions, how we can seek federal legislation that will put a more realistic attitude towards law enforcement and their problems." The reporter then asks Mr. Lynch, "To change the subject, Mr. Lynch, more than one police officer has foreseen the possibility of a room being set aside in every police station for a group of attorneys to be on hand.." Lynch: "We're not too far away from that if the trend continues." Williams is asked, "Do you think that this new ruling by the Supreme Court may indicate a little laxity and may tend to encourage criminals?" [Film ends before he answers]
Segment 2 (sound): Man on camera talking about safety campaigns to prevent accidents. "Well, if there is not accident proneness, there is at least something which people call this. Some people have accidents more than others...Safety campaigns are of tremendous value. We're beginning to realize something else may need to be done in addition.."
Reel 2:
Segment 1 (silent): Women and children picketing on a hillside overlooking a barge in the San Francisco Bay. Pickets are anti-napalm. [Barge is believed to be transporting napalm for the Vietnam War]
Segment 2 (silent + sound): Soldier exiting a small plane at night at airport, greeted effusively by friends and family. Cut to same man on camera [he is also seen in film from previous day, June 14, 1966] speaking about troops in Vietnam. "Our fighting men are getting all the things they need to fight the war and to maintain body and limb together, there's no question about it. They've never been fed so well, never any shortages of any kind. Occasionally we'll run out just temporarily of things because of the tremendous demand that's built up, but let me say that never has there been any shortage that would have any real effect. They've got all the things they need to carry on and they're doing a fine job." Cut to same soldier inside airport surrounded by small group who are chatting with him candidly as the film rolls about who they had dinner with recently, etc.
Segment 3 (silent): Exterior of Mission Market. Cut to interior shot of owner/employee wearing an apron, standing behind a scale, with cigarette in his mouth staring into the camera. Shots of the food cases and back to the man with cigarette in his mouth.
