Published news story/draft version by Lurene K. Helzer, July 17, 1991, The El Cerrito Journal. This news brief reports Jane Bartke is confirming her candidacy for the November, 1991 city election. Two other residents, Norman LaForce and Sandy Kerr, were still considering a try for the El Cerrito City Council:
The two city council seats open will be vacated by Jean Siri and Bob Bacon, who have said they do not intend to run for reelection. The other councilmembers, Mae Ritz, Norma Jellison and Mayor Cathie Kosel are not up for reelection until 1993. Bob Bacon currently serves as the redevelopment board chair as well as a councilmember.
Sandy Kerr was known in California, though never for such unusual achievement in the state as was his legendary father; Sandy Kerr was the son of former University of California president Clark Kerr, who died in December of 2003. The elder Kerr was known for reforming the basic structures of California’s higher education systems. A good history of Clark Kerr’s life, with some of his fantastic quotes, is found at UC Berkeley’s site here:
