KPIX-TV news footage from March 12, 1975 with reporter Rita Trevino featuring scenes from a press conference held on Broadway by topless dancers, waitresses, and bartenders in North Beach. Trevino comments: "They say they want no part of the culinary workers union" and deny they are forced to work under adverse conditions.
