DEBARTOLO YORK'S POWER MOVE: IS SHE NOW FIRMLY IN CONTROL?

2.13.1998

          49ers co-Owner Denise DeBartolo York met Wednesday in
     Youngstown, OH, with "members of the 49ers hierarchy" --
     including team President Carmen Policy, VP & Dir of Football
     Operations Dwight Clark and VP/Business Operations & CFO
     Bill Duffy -- in "what is perceived as a signal that
     DeBartolo York is in charge of the 49ers," according to
     Clark Judge of the SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS.  The meeting
     "appears to have settled questions about who's No. 1 -- at
     least for now" and DeBartolo York "is believed to have
     called" the meeting "to review all business transactions and
     approve cash expenditures" for FY '98.  DeBartolo York, "who
     appears set to run the club more like a business, may cut
     back on expenditures" (SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS, 2/12).
