Ruling on Gays Tested by City Civil Service
A gay activist spokesman said a homosexual test next week would challenge the city Civil Service Commission ruling that police ranks cannot be closed to gays. Police Chief Ed Davis opposed hiring homosexuals and accused the commission of breaching faith after it ruled no one could be barred from the force for sexual orientation. Casey Grey, UCLA student union officer, said the ruling may ease life for gays on the force though no details were given.
