robbing a gas station anyway said Chief Briscoe The Reno chief of police answered criticism of the po lice departments relationship with juvenile probation offi cers saying "We have a splendid relationship with the juvenile court and officials Our department works close ly with he said Referring to the TA Council's charges the chief said people representing causes such as this feel they are
