Since panhandling is not illegal Here it s almost san Francisco has had Street musicians for at least 25 years starting with the Sweet potato says another City official. And musicians in Berkeley have proliferated through the years. I guess if City officials did t like it the players would t still be the Street musicians Are not derelicts or beggars nor Are they so considered by Resi dents tourists or City person Nel. Rather they Are for the most part relatively serious musicians picking up a living while aspiring to concert Tours or perhaps Carnegie Hall.

Frisco welcomes Hinde ii gourmet san Francisco a thousands flocked to the Gold Gate Bridge and Harbor As the Golden Hinde ii a modern version of sir Francis Drake s 16th Century flagship was officially welcomed after a month voyage from Plymouth England. The tiny Square rigger arrived at Sundown saturday but was towed outside the Golden Gate to unfurl its sails for the welcoming ceremony sunday. Hundreds of yachts and sail boats dotted san Francisco Bay and the army fired 21 Cannon salutes As fire boats sprayed a watery greeting into the air. Visitors stooped to walk below the decks of the three masted ship which provided cramped quarters for it s 16 Man Crew. The original 102 foot vessel carried a Crew of 80. The new ship was built and sailed Here for million. Its owners Golden Hinde Ltd. Of san Francisco plan to display it As a permanent floating museum that will draw visitors a year. Naval architect Christian Norgaard spent three years re searching Drake s ship before the keel was Laid by j. Hinks and sons in Appledore North Devon England. Except for modern steering gear and an auxiliary engine used for berthing and sparingly in the Pacific the ship is outfitted with elizabethan materials including tree nails Handwoven ropes and Flaxen sails. Everything we put on her was scratched from said Norgaard. The Golden Hinde ii sailed from England sept. 29, Chart i n g a trans Atlantic course much like one taken by Drake 400 years ago when he set out to Circle the Globe. Once in the Caribbean How Ever the new ship took a Short Cut through the Panama canal while Drake was forced to sail a Stormy course around the Horn. Nevertheless two Lively blows battered the Golden Hinde ii at both ends of the voyage. The first kept the ship bottled up in the English Chan Nel and the second outside the Golden Gate delayed the ship s arrival by one Day. In a Pacific storm a Crew member was hurled across a Cabin and broke a rib. Drake is generally believed to have landed about 30 Miles North of san Francisco in june 1579, to repair the Golden Hinde whose seams were splitting because of 30 tons of captured Spanish treasure stored in the hold. Although some believe Drake sailed into san Francisco Bay most historians credit the Spanish with discovering the Harbor 190 years after Drake s voyage.
