WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER 1921 - 2011
William Donald Schaefer, the political tornado who was Mayor of Baltimore, Governor of Maryland and State Comptroller, died Monday afternoon. He was 89 years old and spent much of that time in public service. As Mayor of Baltimore, he built Charles Center and Harborplace. He transformed downtown. He changed the Inner Harbor from a group of rotting fruit piers to a bustling retail marketplace. Just about everyone said it couldn’t be done. Yet he did it. He marshaled forces, he browbeat aides, he wheedled cash and concessions out of the business community, and he transformed Baltimore, a down-on-its-luck former manufacturing and transportation center, into a tourist city. His energy, and his rages, were the stuff of stories. “Baltimore was his thing,” said Nick Filipidis, owner and major domo at Jimmy’s in Fells Point, where Schaefer ate breakfast just about every morning for 20 years until he moved to a retirement community in 2008. “He never stopped working on Baltimore.” Schaefer had his own table at Jimmy’s.

Every morning he had what Nick calls the “Schaefer Special,” scrambled eggs, home fries and rye toast with a cup of tea. On Tuesday morning, out of respect for his old friend and customer, Nick had the table set up with a Schaefer Special. People stopped
by the table to pay their respects. They said the same thing: “He was a great man. This is a sad day.” Gene Raynor was working for the state Board of Elections in 1955 in when a balding man walked in to file for City Council candidacy and asked how much it would cost to obtain a copy of the voter rolls for the Fifth District. Gene told him $200. “I can’t afford that,” said Schaefer, then an unheard-of real estate title attorney. “Tell you what,” said Gene. “As a state employee I am entitled to a free copy of the citywide rolls. I’ll lend the Fifth to you, but you have to give it back.” After the election Schaefer returned the roll as promised and took Gene out to lunch at Haussner’s. They remained friends for life. “We were very good pals,” said Gene simply. Schaefer won election as City Council President in 1967, and he became acquaintSchaefer (seated), when asked how he wanted to be remembered, said “He ed with a gaggle of activists who were cared. I want that on my tombstone.” (Photo by Maggie Allen)

SCHAEFER REMEMBERED CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
EMPTY CHAIR-At Jimmy’s in Fells Point, a chair once occupied by the late William Donald Schaefer, was reserved in his honor on Tuesday. The ‘Schaefer Special,’ a cup of tea, scrambled eggs, home fries and rye toast, was the order of the day. Friends gathered at the restaurant to share their memories of the city’s lifelong devotee, arguably one of the best-known names in Baltimore politics, if not all of Maryland politics. Schaefer died on Monday at the age of 89. Photo by Jacqueline Watts

struggling to save the Foot of Broadway from destruction by a 16-lane highway. “In the late 60s at the height of the road fight, he told us, in uncharacteristically gentle tones, that we were wasting our time and the fight was lost,” said Antonia Keane, professor of sociology at Loyola College and a lieutenant in that road fight. Schaefer very rarely misread the direction of political winds, but he did this time. The fight to save the city’s waterfront communities and westside from the highway raged on. U.S. Senator Barbara A. Mikulski got her political start in the road fight, and as a City Councilwoman in the First District, she gathered votes to repeal the highway plan. “I had been promised by my colleagues that they would vote with me,” Mikulski recalled. But then Schaefer, who by then had been elected Mayor, called her. “He said ‘Barbara, I am going to roll you. I am the Mayor. You can’t run the city.’” She lost, 16-3. But Schaefer called her back later and asked whether she thought the waterfront could mean something.
“Out of that came the beginning of...a compromise that led to the Fort McHenry Tunnel. We saved Fells Point. We saved Federal Hill. We created the opportunity to build Camden Yards. Our unfinished business, which I am now working on, is the West Side,” Mikulski remembered. “So he beat me one day. But then he invited me into the office on another day.” After the road fight, Schaefer threw his support behind rebuilding the Foot of Broadway, now called Fells Point, and Federal Hill. Both neighborhoods were depopulated and dilapidated. Out of that grew Schaefer’s legendary ‘dollar house’ initiative, where people who were willing to rehab, and to live in, a house for a decade were sold vacant houses for a dollar. As Mayor, Schaefer was relentless. For 16 years, he tore down and rebuilt, and pushed city workers to fill potholes, pick up litter and clean alleys. In 1987, Schaefer ran for Governor, determined to accomplish statewide what he had in Baltimore. The General Assembly was harder to convince than the 19-member City Council, but Schaefer managed to get a few things done. CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

money he had in his campaign fund, it was never enough. “He always thought he would lose,” said his friend Gene Raynor. “He was never secure.” Schaefer moved to Fells Point after leaving the State House, to a rowhouse on Lancaster Street right around the corner from Jimmy’s, the political and gossip nerve center of an intensely political and gossipy neighborhood. He had breakfast there just about every morning he was in town, and held forth on subjects ranging from politics to politics. It was fitting that he moved to Fells Point, because back in the early 1960s on the City Council he voted for plans to demolish the neighborhood to make way for a 16-lane expressway. But a group of residents and business people fought the road, and one of the leaders of that group, social worker Barbara Ann Mikulski, went on to have a modest political career of her own. After the battle was finally won, then-Mayor Schaefer, rather than holding a grudge as he tended to do, threw his support behind rehabilitating Fells Point and Federal Hill. So what he had wanted to tear down, he helped to rebuild. And then he moved there. It’s funny how things end up sometimes. Schaefer voted, along with the rest of Fells Point, at Lemko House on Ann Street. He insisted on being the first in line to vote. That meant that he was out in the November morning gloom by 6:30 a.m., and that meant that reporters (including me) had to drag themselves out of bed in time to join him. He enjoyed that. “How you doing, little girl?” he would ask as we huddled miserably by the door. “Did you stay out late? You should have asked me out too.” Schaefer’s goal was to be the first on the voter roll. Number One. In 2002 he was a wee bit late to the polls, because he had had surgery on his bad knee and had to be driven to the poll. His driver was late. William Donald Schaefer was not happy to see people already waiting to vote. So Schaefer did what politicians do: he campaigned. He shook hands, he asked how everyone was doing, and he worked his way to the front of the line. He was, once again, the first through the door, and
When it came to voting, William Donald Schaefer was always Number One at Lemko House. File photo by Jacqueline Watts
the first to sign the register, and the first to cast his vote. Gene Raynor cleaned out Schaefer’s boyhood home on Edgewood Street in 1995, preparing for the move to Fells Point. “One thing about him, whatever you gave him, he kept,” Raynor recalled. “He had a black-and-white TV, still in its box. RCA. New. He never wanted to throw anything away.” The house was still as Schaefer left it years before. “He had furniture from when he was 10 years old,” said Raynor. “He had his suits and clothes from when he was 10. I packed them up and I gave them to one of those ladies with the carts. A bag lady [in Fells Point’s square]. She threw them right back at me.” Schaefer had—and used—tremendous power. But he was a very sentimental man. He loved Baltimore with all his heart. He gave his all. “He embodied the job,” said Jimmy Filipidis, speaking at his restaurant the morning after Schaefer died. His father, Nick, had set up Schaefer’s favorite table with his favorite breakfast, scrambled eggs, home fries, rye toast and tea. “He never left work,” said Jimmy. Barbara Mikulski, Schaefer’s foe during the road fight, and then his ally, gets the last word. “That’s the way
William Donald Schaefer was. No permanent crankiness. Just a permanent agenda to build Baltimore and its economy. He never stopped thinking about Baltimore. Baltimore and its streets and its neighborhoods and its people were his family.” Rest in peace, William Donald Schaefer.

ing new meaning to O’s, being as that’s how many wins they’ve had in over a week. During their eight game skid, Baltimore has been outscored 54 to 20. They held a five-run lead against the New York Yankees last Thursday, only to have Jake Arrieta give back three runs and the bullpen cough up the lead. Getting swept by the Cleveland Indians didn’t help matters as the Orioles headed home after their short road trip. They started their four game set against the Minnesota Twins with another loss. They had better win a couple soon, because the Yankees are coming to town for a weekend series. One spot that is hurting the Orioles’ offense is Derrek Lee. Hitting third in the lineup behind Brian Roberts and Nick Markakis, Lee this season is 0-10 with runners in scoring position and has struck out 8 times in those at bats. Money well spent. Another player that is hurting the O’s is, surprise, Mike Gonzalez. The reliever has an ERA of 10.38 so far this year, but after watching him last year, are you really surprised? Nick Markakis has cooled down after his hot start to the season. Currently, Markakis is hitting .222 with two home runs and six runs batted in. I wouldn’t worry too much, however, as Markakis usually starts off slow, thanks to his career .273 average in April and .267 May average. He will pick it up. Injuries have also hurt Baltimore yet again. If there is a team with more injuries, I would really be surprised. J.J. Hardy is out, but hopefully should be back soon, and as it looks right now, starting pitcher Brian Matusz still seems to be a

few weeks away from rejoining the team, which is a huge loss considering how the rotation has been pitching lately. Looking at things in a positive light (sort of) is Brian Roberts. So far this year, B-Rob (sadly) leads the team in batting average with a .267 average, is tied with Adam Jones with three home runs, and also leads the O’s with 11 RBI. That’s all fine and dandy, but when your 5’9” second baseman is leading your team in home runs and runs batted in, something is wrong. Derrek Lee, Mark Reynolds, Vladimir Guerrero and Luke Scott need to start stepping it up a bit if Baltimore wants to start winning games. One other bright spot on the Orioles is rookie pitcher Zach Britton. Britton easily is the Orioles player of the month, as he posted a record of 2-1 with a 2.75 ERA. Britton has struck out 14 batters in 19.2 innings so far this year, and minus a rough outing against the Indians, has been one of the very few bright spots on this roster. Britton looks to make his next start against the Twins on Wednesday and will hope to rebound from his outing in Cleveland. I would expect him to bounce back quite nicely.
