Assessment[edit]

This is almost B class. The thing keeping it from getting there is there is no coverage from 1924 to 1964. 24 years is a big part of his life with no mention of where he grew up, went to school, marraige, work, etc. Also need references for the "Tenure as mayor" section since there are not any. Otherwise a good article with lots of coverage of the political career. Aboutmovies 03:30, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An omission?[edit]

ISTR that Ivancie was police commissioner during the 1970 Portland State strike and riot|South Park Blocks police riot. My memory may be faulty here. However, he was held responsible for the police violence, & his political career began to erode because of that association: it was said Bud Clark won the race for mayor in large part because he wasn't Frank Ivancie. -- llywrch (talk) 15:46, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
