Census takers to count heads in Newark
Beginning Saturday, 49 census takers will walk Newark streets to complete the first tabulation since 1970.

Data by ethnicity and housing will inform the city’s affirmative action hiring plan and help attract more state and federal per capita funding.

Reviewer John O Laque recalls prior regional arts festivals and notes the Fremont festival leans toward representational work while lacking contrast with abstract and conceptual pieces. He urges an invitational or expanded showcase to diversify entries, highlighting strong watercolors, graphics, pastels, and individual artists like Sally Twoyne, Ted Harpainter, Don Larsen, and Annette Lerch.

Tentative police pact sparks city council debate over pay
