Three typewritten pages, dated June 13, 1978, contain a rough draft of a memo from Morris Kight of the NO on the Briggs Initiative Committee to Los Angeles' newly appointed police chief, Darryl Gates. It outlines several issues of concern, including: police relations with gay demonstrators; lobbying by individual officers; and use of disputed information about homosexuals and crime. It is partly typed on the back of reused stationery, a flyer for a pageant or competition.
