Artie Albert Addison Jr., 90, died April 4, 2004. He retired in 1976 after 33 years with the Oak Ridge Police Department and was instrumental in bringing the Boys Club to Oak Ridge. Born March 12, 1914, in Covington, he was the son of Cinnie McCoy and Artie Albert Addison Sr. Capt. Addison began his police career in Memphis in 1936 and moved up after a year to the job of manning Squad Car One, which worked emergency calls in downtown Memphis. As part of that assignment Capt. Addison handled "shootings, knifings, fights, bay rum hounds and various derelicts from the riverfront," as he told The Oak Ridger in an interview on the eve of his retirement. He joined the Memphis police force when his high school coach recommended him to the police commissioner. He played football and basketball for Central High School in Memphis and was captain of the All-City basketball team in 1932 and 1933. After graduating, he worked for employers who were interested in athletic ability because they would hire people to work for them who could also play on company athletic teams. One of the teams Capt. Addison played on won the state softball championship in 1934 and went on to the national tournament in Chicago, Ill. He and his wife, Helen, met in Memphis and were married in 1938. When she died on Jan. 9, 1991, they had been married for 52 years. Capt. Addison left the Memphis Police Department in 1940 and went to work for DuPont as a guard at the Chickasaw Ordnance Works, later becoming chief of the guard force. DuPont transferred him to Oak Ridge in March 1943, and he was drafted into the Army, eventually being sent back to Oak Ridge. DuPont was responsible for design and construction of the Graphite Reactor and the plutonium separation laboratory at X-10, which later became Oak Ridge National Laboratory. When he came back to Oak Ridge as a soldier it was to take over as chief of X-10 patrol when operations started, but instead he was assigned to the intelligence and security division in the Army. After his discharge from the Army in 1946, he joined the Oak Ridge Police Department as a captain. Capt. Addison was promoted to assistant chief in 1946, and in 1947 took a leave to help organize the guard force replacing Army guards at the Atomic Energy Commission, a Department of Energy predecessor agency. After he came back to the police department, there was a reorganization in which several ranks were reduced, and he was reduced to captain again. He graduated from the Federal Bureau of Investigation National Academy in 1948. His police career was interrupted in 1950, when he was called to active duty with the National Guard during the Korean War. Following his return In 1952, he became chief of detectives, a job he held until 1971, when he was made operations captain in charge of three uniformed shifts. In 1973, he was made staff services captain. He retired from the department on Dec. 30, 1976. He and his family lived for many years at 302 Firestone Road. Capt. Addison was active in working with Oak Ridge youth and was one of the Oak Ridgers who worked to bring the Boys Club to Oak Ridge. He received the club's Man and Boy Award in 1958, the honor he told The Oak Ridger he valued most. When he retired, then Oak Ridge Police Chief Robert Smith said, "We are losing a service that is irreplaceable when we lose Capt. Addison. -- He knows all the ins and outs of the city, every little street and where streets used to be. He just has a wealth of information that we younger guys don't know." The Addisons were active members of First United Methodist Church, and Capt. Addison chaired the church's Administrative Board in 1966 and 1967. Capt. Addison was also commander of Post No. 199 of the American Legion in Oak Ridge in 1986 and 1987. He was elected a district constable in a nonpartisan race in 1946, the first time residents of Oak Ridge could vote for local officials. He was preceded in death by his sister, Julia Frances Addison, who died in 1938, and his daughter, Pamela Addison, who died in 1963 at age 15. Capt.
