Ronald Brewer, 36, was found guilty of first degree murder in the Jan 29 slaying of Clarence Edwards, with a 6-6 start and later a unanimous verdict. Brewer, already serving a life term for a 1983 second degree murder in Council Bluffs, faces another trial for the murder of Patricia Edwards and an escape charge.

Alioto Uses Emergency to End San Francisco Strike
Mayor Joseph Alioto invoked emergency powers to grant police and fire unions a 6.9 percent raise for July 1 and a 13.05 percent increase for the rest of the fiscal year, ending a four day walkout. Supervisors condemned the move as overreach, but workers began returning to duty as talks resumed. The plan would cost an estimated 0.6 to 2.6 million more than the initial offer, offset by savings during the strike.
