Fear, anger linger 

long after crime 

By Mary Washko 

staff writer 

Whatever the crime, victims in 

Canton Township agree they are 

left with a sense of violation and 

fear that remains long after it has 

been committed. 

One victim, a 36-year-old Canton 

woman, returned home in 

April and found her pet cockatiel 

with string wrapped 10 times 

around each toe and wrapped 

again around the legs. 

Nothing was taken from the 

apartment and the bird was alive 

lying on the floor. 

But the woman said that she was 

shaken by the fact someone could 

just break into her house and do 

nothing but tie up her pet. 

•_ "It's terrifying to know that 

someone could come into your 

home and just do whatever they 

want," she said. She asked not to 

be identified. 

'it's just total bewilderment because 

you can't imagine who 

would do something like this. It 

seems silly, but something like this 

makes me feel like I'm being 

stalked," she said. 

THE WOMAN said she finds 

herself thinking more about security 

and thinking twice before entering 

her home.

"There's always that feeling 

that the person has been in here," 

she said. 

The stepmother of a 13-year-old 

Canton boy said she was angry 

when the boy returned home one 

day and had been shot in the legs 

with a BB-gun in the woods behind 

their home. 

Several older boys, she said, approached 

her stepson with the BBgun 

demanding all his money. 

They chased him with the gun 

when he said he didn't have any. 

"It wasn't a robbery, but it felt 

like one," she said. "I felt bad because 

I asked him to collect some 

twigs and things for a project. It's 

just so malicious you wonder why 

anyone would do that." 

She said she doesn't allow the 

boy or her 2-year-old daughter 

near the wooded area anymore out 

of fear. Although the family is sad 

it happened, she said they are 

grateful it wasn't more serious 

Doug Cook couldn't believe it 

when someone "was bold enough" 

to walk onto his property and take 

more than 11,000 in tools from his 

garage. 

"There's that feeling of shock I 

always thought we lived in a pretty 

safe neighborhood, but I guess 

you can't trust anyone."

Grisly murders thrust

By Diane Gal* 

staff writer 

Bizarre and grisly murders put 

Canton on the map 

Media as far away as Europe 

have picked up the sensational stories 

in this once sleepy, low profile 

farm town. 

Readers have been devouring 

tales about: 

• A young woman who finds 

her mother stuffed in the family 

freezer 

• A Fulbright scholar who uses 

duct tape to suffocate his wife and 

then stages a robbery to cover up 

the killing. 

• A 54-year-old man who 

shoots his estranged wife with a 

.30- 30 rifle, goes to a local tavern, 

orders two beers and calls the police 

to report the murder. 

• Tw6 teenage boys who take a 

13-year-old Canton girl to a wooded 

area and shoot her seven times 

because one of them thought he 

got her pregnant. 

NO STORY received as much 

attention as the "freezer murder," 

which drew national and international 

press to the 36-square-mile 

township. 

Last year they craved details 

about Dorothy Tyburski — a Canton 

mother who was found dead in 

a chest-sized Sear's Coldspot

woman said she is sUU furious 

that someone broke into her car.

valuable in the car now. the woman 

said. . 

freezer among the frozen meats. 

She was stored there by her husband 

who admitted to beating her 

to death three years earlier. 

The motive: He suspected she 

had an affair with their daughter's 

18-year-old boyfriend. 

"I didn't mean any disrespect 

to my wife's body I knew no 

more harm could come to her 

where she was." Leonard 

Tyburski testified. 

Tyburski is serving 20-40 years 

in Jackson State Prison on a second-degree 

murder charge. An appeal 

is under way. 

INTERNATIONAL INTRIGUE 

spiced a gruesome story about 

Charles Fisher, a Fulbright scholar 

and microbiologist, who was 

convicted of murdering his wife in 

July 1984 by wrapping her entire 

face with duct tape. 

Ella Maria (Ria) Mercado 

Fisher died a few days later. 

The motive: Fisher suspected his 

wife was having an affair with her 

first cousin, who lived in Germany. 

Mercado Fisher had plane tickets 

for Germany and was scheduled to 

depart a few days after the attack. 

The prosecutor maintained that 

Fisher was overwhelmed with 

jealousy and said that letters he 

wrote to his in-laws were proof. He 

tried to convince them that she 

was having an affair. 

Rebecca and Todd Fisher also 

had something stolen from their 

pick-up truck, a #110 pair of sunglasses 

Rebecca Fisher said after the 

thief also ripped the rear view 

mirror from the window. 

"I was upset something was 

stolen, but I was even more upset 

to know they had to tear things 

"From now on I will show you 

proof I have not lied." the victim's 

mother read in court from 

a letter written to her by Fisher 

Fisher quoted from a letter 

his wife received from her cousin 

It said-: "Under the shower I 

remember you then I open the 

cold shower to be quiet." 

"How sick an animal would 

relate to his cousin this way." 

Fisher wrote to his in-laws "I 

was afraid it would happen as 

it has happened over and over 

again" 

The couple traveled extensively, 

lived in many remote areas and 

had moved to Canton Township 

shortly before Fisher killed his 

wife in what came to be known as 

the duct tape murder. 

Hints that Mercado Fisher had 

psychic premonitions about her 

own death were revealed through 

court testimony and the victim's 

diary. A friend testified that Mercado 

Fisher said she felt as if her 

husband was "smothering her." 

When Charles Fisher was convicted 

of first-degree murder on 

Good Friday 1988 he said the timing 

was appropriate, because like 

Jesus Christ he was unjustly persecuted. 

Fisher maintained that 

robbers broke into the house and 

gagged his wife.

Statistics

By Diana Gala 

staff writer 

If you want to avoid crime steer 

clear of 1-275. 

Criminals tend to avoid rolling 

hills and gravel roads preferring 

the densely populated central and 

northeastern Canton — especially 

near the expressway, according to 

statistics provided by Canton's police 

and planning departments. 

THE HIGHEST number of 

crimes per person were reported 

in Stoneybrooke Apartments, on 

Joy Road west of 1-275. and Sherwood 

Village Mobile Home Park, 

on Michigan Avenue less than one 

half mile west of 1-275. One crime 

was reported for every five residents 

in those areas 

Sherwood Village manager Bryan 

Van said generally the mobile 

home park is quiet and many of 

the disturbances stem from domestic 

problems

Colleagues praise Hoben's skill with finances 

ByMADMon 

staff writer 

Board members gave Superintendent 

John Hoben a B-plus. But 

how about employees, teachers, 

union officials and residents of the 

Plymouth-Canton school district? 

Many individuals contacted by the 

Observer declined comment. 

Others asked not to be quoted, but 

rated Hoben high in his financial 

acumen, and lower in his people 

skills. That's not to say he hasn't improved, 

they said. 

At a recent rally hosted by the cit- 

izen's group 1 CARE, the superintendent 

not only showed up, he 

donned an apron, bussed tables and 

served beverages. That was noticed, 

and appreciated. 

Ron Corpolongo, a special education 

teacher in Farmington Public 

Schools, helped found a citizens' 

group called the Committee for Academic 

Freedom and Excellence. 

Speaking as an individual and not 

on behalf of CAFE, Corpolongo said 

that overall, Hoben does well. 

"I think Hoben does a good job 

with the financial runnings of the 

district He must be doing something 

right to be named superintendent of 

the year by the state. 

"The biggest weakness I would see 

would be communications with the 

general public. I think the general 

public doesn't know him and therefore 

doesn't think good things of him 

"I think that's a two-way street 

The public has to get out there and 

know him. but he has to get out there 

more and meet the public. If that 

happened, there would be more positive 

support for the district by the 

community."

Pedestrian shot at from car 

A 27-year-old Westlanid man told 

Canton police he was the target of a 

drive-by shooting on Canton Center 

Road early Saturday. The victim, 

who was not hit by any bullets, told 

police be was walking along the road 

about 2 a.m. when a car drove by 

and opened fire. Two or three shots 

were reported to have been fired. 

The victim said he was walking with 

two friends near Rudgate at the time 

of the incident. He said they dove 

into a ditch then ran into some 

woods after the shooting. The incident 

was reported to police the following 

morning. 

The victim also said his brother 

was shot in a similar fashion two 

weeks ago in Inkster. Canton police 

said there was no evidence recovered 

from the scene. 

SUSPECTS ARRESTED; Three 

Canton residents were arrested early 

Friday after a Knightsbridge 

Court resident called police to say 

someone was burglarizing her neighbor's 

house. The woman heard noises 

about 2:20 a.m. and saw three or 

four people loading her neighbor's 

belongings from his garage into a 

car. When police stopped the car a 

short distance away, there was an 

electrical cord dangling from the 

trunk. Police found items belonging 

to the homeowner, worth about $700, 

in the vehicle. They included a set of 

golf clubs, a circular saw, weed 

wacker, tool box and a case of beer. 

STRONG-ARM BANDITS: A Wisconsin 

construction company reported 

the theft early Saturday of more 

than $4,000 worth of equipment. The 

items, a water pump and a welder, 

were in a vehicle parted on a median 

on Michigan Avenue. The owner 

told police someone cut a lock off

the rear door of the vehicle to remove 

the equipment. The welder, 

which was valued at $4,000. was "extremely 

heavy and . . . would take a 

number of people to lift," the police 

report said. 

CYCLES STOLEN: Two township 

residents reported the theft of motorcycles 

from their garages early 

Saturday. On Corinne Street, someone 

gained entry by prying aluminum 

siding off the side of the garage. 

Once inside, the culprit removed a 

$2,800 motorcycle, a $150 pair of 

leather pants, boots valued at $200 

and a pair of $35 gloves. Damage to 

the garage was estimated at $360. A 

Cherry Hill Road resident told police 

someone removed a $3,000 motorcycle 

from his garage the same morning. 

Both incidents occurred sometime 

between 2 and 7 a.m. Saturday. 

WALLET GETS WORKOUT: A 

Brighton man had his wallet stolen 

from an unsecured locker at the 

Rose Shores Racquet Club on Ford 

Road Friday evening. Police said the 

31-year-old victim locked the locker 

next to his by mistake, leaving his 

belongings unsecured while he fol-_ 

lowed his fitness routine. He told police 

there was $510 in cash in the 

wallet.

UNEXPLAINED 

WEIGHT LOSS 

PUZZLES 

SCIENTISTS 

FINLAND — The unexpected 

weight loss experienced by members 

of a test group has puzzled medical 

researchers at a leading Finnish university. 

Scientists were testing a naturally-occurring 

compound for its 

ability to lower blood cholesterol levels 

when, to their surprise, they 

found that every person who took the 

formula had lost a significant 

amount of weight. 

The formula was then tested at 

another prestigious European university 

hospital Again, all patients 

lost weight even though they did not 

change their eating habits. The 

report detailing this study, published 

in the British Journal of Nutrition, 

stated: "Body weight was significantly 

reduced even though the 

patients were specifically asked not 

to alter their dictarv habits." 

This woman reportedly lost 134 

pounds while on the formula. 

While it is still not entirely clear 

how the formula induces weight loss, 

some scientists believe this compound 

actually alters the way the 

body digests food: when taken before 

mealtime it bonds with food and suppresses 

calorie absorption. Unabsorbed 

calories would pass through 

and out of the digestive system. 

The formula is marketed in capsule 

form in the United States under 

the trade name Cal-Ban 3000. A firm 

located in Tampa, Florida has 

exclusive North American distribution 

rights to Cal-Ban 3000. A company 

spokesman reported that the 

formula is 100

Crime statistics point to trends in 

the type of crime that occur in different 

neighborhoods. 

For instance, more weapon-related 

cases are reported in apartments 

than anywhere else. There were 135 

such crimes In Canton apartments 

last year. 98 in subdivisions and 84 in 

trailer parks. 

And if you live In an apartment 

complex near 1-275 you have a 

greater chance of being victimised

In addition to Stoneybrooke, 

apartments with the most crime last 

year were Village Squire, north of 

Ford Road and east of 1-275, and 

Canton Commons, on Haggerty north 

of Palmer. 

Apartments in Canton were burglarized 

more often than other 

dwellings. There were 83 apartments 

burglarized compared to 66 

bouses and 39 trailer homes. 

Mayfair Village Subdivision had 

the most reported crime per person 

living in subdivisions last year. 

There was one police report written 

for every six people in the cluster of 

homes south of Joy Road west of 

Sheldon Road.

includes a wide range of offenses

An indecent exposure, reported 

Jan. 28. 1989, involved two men 

walking down Roundtable near 

Palmer Road and Morton Taylor 

about 5:30 p.m. One of the men 

stopped and urinated in the middle 

of the road. 

Seven residents in Holiday Park 

Subdivision south of Joy Road near 

Holly Drive in the far northeast part 

of the township reported breaking 

and enterings, the highest rate 

among subdivisions. Residents In 

nearby Carriage Hills, north of Hanford 

Road east of Sheldon Road, reported 

six breaking and enterings 

last year. 

Canton's crime rate, compared to 

other communities around the nation, 

was low, according to "Crime 

in the United States." which is published 

by the FBI. 

In 1988, the most recent information 

available. Canton had 60,500 

residents and 2,630 serious crimes, 

including murders, forcible rapes, 

robberies, aggravated assaults, burglaries. 

larcenies, and motor vehicle 

thefts, the FBI study said. That 

comes to one serious crime for every 

23 residents. 

Nationally the crime rate per 

100,000 people was 5,664 or one 

crime for every 17.5 people. 

Nemecek said he believes most of 

the reports are true; however, he did

Crime pays, 

say police, 

area judges 

By Kevin Brown 

staff writer 

To begin to get a handle on what 

a uses crime, consider this notion: 

Crime pays. 

That 3 the conclusion of Schoolaft 

College-Radcliff criminal juse 

coordinator Kenneth Frayer, 

*ho cites uational crime statistics to 

hi; point. 

• Just 13 percent of the home and 

usiness break-ins in the United 

.(ales were solved by police in 1988. 

• Just 26 percent of criminals 

mmitting robberies that year were 

j; rested. 

"I'm trying to tell you that crime 

pays," said Frayer, who retired from 

he Detroit Police Department as a 

i, utenant, after J1 years on the job. 

He teaches at Schoolcraft's Gari 

-n City campus. 

"It does pay." said Livonia native 

nd Detroit Recorder's Court Judge

' And moreover, it does pay, among 

hose who are caught," Talbot otslid, 

s first offenders in several crime 

tegories seldom serve jail time. 

SOCIOLOGISTS WHO have studed 

the criminal mind offer various 

heories to explain causes of crime, 

uut for area judges, professors of 

rtminology and police, determining 

what causes crime isn't tough. 

There are no surprises," said Talbot, 

who points to homes where a

But to say parents or society is to

One of the problems is we keep 

naking excuses for people — 'Well,

Well, he came from a poor family,' 

WeH, we were too rich.' 

Young people are going to pick 

up on these excuses. They get a coput 

and they're going to continue on

There is no excuse for not know-

"THEY WANT it now and they 

think they are entitled to having it 

right now," said Roselyn Cohen, 

chief probation officer for the 18th 

District Court in Westland for the 

past 10 years. 

"A lot of the breaking and enterings 

and larcenies are from greed — 

People have not learned to delay 

gratification. 

"They are dropouts or are in minimum 

wage jobs but they still have 

the same wants as other people and 

they don't realize they can do 

to improve their employabillty.' 

"THERE IS a criminal mind," 

said retired Southfield police officer 

Cass Gaska, who teaches criminology 

at Henry Ford Community College 

in Dearborn. 

He cites a 1978 study of 100 prisoners 

in New York state's penal system. 

Researchers there found criminals 

"have different thought processes 

than the normal person." 

Judge James Gar ber of Plymouth 

Township's 35th District Court fills 

in on occasion as a circuit court 

judge. He points to studies that show 

80-90 percent of crime is committed 

by 10-20 percent of the population. 

Garber cited the work of Harvardtrained 

sociologist James Wilson, 

who maintained that 95 percent of 

repeat criminals can be identified by 

studying brain patterns. 

"Wilson says the solution to the 

problem is putting them away until 

they're 45. There is a big corollary 

between age and crime," Garber 

said. 

FORMER DETROIT juvenile 

court judge James Lincoln — for 

whom the current juvenile court 

building is named — theorized on 

"the common thread that ran 

through all juvenile crime," Garber 

said. 

Lincoln also centered on repeat offenders.

Today's cop: 

Brains, brawn 

By Joe Beumen 

staff writer 

Today's police officer is quite a bit 

different from his — or her— counterpart 

of 20 years ago. 

And while we haven't quite 

reached the Robocop era, the stereotyped 

beat cop is just a fading memory 

in most cities and suburbs. 

Law enforcement officials credit 

the transformation of the "typical" 

police officer of today to a variety of 

factors. 

PERHAPS THE single largest influence 

on changing the nature of police 

work, however, has nothing to do 

with technological advances but with 

public attitude 

"There is no question that the public 

and the courts- are forcing police 

agencies tb~6e more accountable for 

their actions, said Wayne County 

Sheriff Robert Ficano. 

"Police officers have been forced 

to think about the consequences of 

their actions, whether it's aggressively 

arresting someone or improperly 

using their firearm." 

To bring the profession into the socalled 

modern area, Ficano and others 

agreed that continuing education 

and training have become priorities 

in making a "better" police officer. 

Whereas requirements were minimal 

just 10 years ago for someone to 

be considered for a job on a local police 

department, most communities 

in western Wayne County now require 

a minimum of two years of 

college for candidates 

AND SOME cities, such as Livonia, 

require future officers to serve 

at least two years in a police cadet 

program before they are considered 

for hire as a full-time officer. 

Extensive physical, medical and 

psychological testing also awaits today's 

candidate, as does a stint in a 

police academy for some. 

"When I was a rookie, training 

amounted to being taken out in a 

field for target practice for an hour 

and then being declared a policeman," 

recalled Livonia police chief 

William Crayk, who is retiring in December 

after 30 years in law enforcement. 

"Now. patrol officers have to 

drive, keep an eye on their surroundings 

and operate an in-car computer 

all at the same time." 

Many of the larger police departments 

now have in-house training 

i

or pattern develops In an area, we 

can work with them," said Myers. 

Violent or other crimes against 

persons have been at a "reeaonsble" 

level, be said, noting one armed robbery 

during the previous year. The 

dty does have a lot of breaking and 

enterings and vandalism complaints, 

according to Myers 

Even vandalism, which might cost 

$50 to repair, Is offensive to residents 

due to the lack of respect for 

privste property, Myers sdded.

classrooms where officers are continuously

to their jobs or are trained in

colleges, the state police and the 

FBI 

Canton Township public safety director 

John Santomauro credits a 

public study conducted more than 20 

years ago with radically changing 

the "traditional cop." 

The study attempted to pinpoint 

what the general public expected 

from their protectors and how they 

expected law enforcement officials 

to act, he said. 

"The public said they wanted 

more from their officers and they 

didn't like the perception that police 

officers were uneducated bullies," 

Santomauro said. 

TODAY, many union contracts 

contain provisions for reimbursing 

officers who continue their studies, 

and other financial incentives are 

luring more and more officers back 

to school. 

"I think that increased pay and 

benefits now enjoyed in our profession 

tapped into a broader market of 

people." Santomauro said. "Now. 

you don't have to be poor to be a 

cop." 

Heightened public awareness — 

and scrutiny — have forced all 

branches of law enforcement to be 

as aware of their public image as of 

their effectiveness in crime prevention. 

In fact, some officers complain 

that they are so restricted in their 

performance that their jobs have become 

more dangerous. 

"The courts have decided that an 

officer practically has to wait until 

he or she is shot in order to return 

fire," one veteran detective said. 

"The criminal has rights, the innocent 

motorist injured in a police 

chase by a fleeing criminal has 

rights, but what about the officer 

who is placed in a life-threatening 

situation and doesn't seem to have 

any rights?" 

Another change in law enforcement 

is the type of work today's officers 

are expected to perform. 

Today's officers are also being 

asked to do public relations for their 

departments and even leave the patrol 

car or desk to take on the role of 

instructor in elementary schools 

through a relatively new drug 

awareness program.

"A lot of this is common sense information. 

Something that I take as 

second nature, like keeping my 

house and car locked," she said. "I 

am surprised at the people who don't 

lock their doors." 

Residents need to be told that 

thieves will enter homes while the 

residents are in the back yard having 

a barbecue or mowing the lawn. 

Hale' said. 

"A lot of time people (thieves) go 

out shopping. They cruise the neighborhood 

and shop for things to come

Lighting is a good security measure 

and Garden City has sponsored 

a program under which homeowners 

could have a light installed at discounted

In the early 1980s, the state constitution

In 1982, Van Regenmorter was 

seeking election to his first term 

when "a couple of victims approached 

me." 

Seated behind a desk in his crowded 

office in the state capitol. Van 

Regenmorter tells a story of two 

women in their 20s, widowed when 

their husbands, riding in a truck, 

were struck and killed by a car driven 

by a drunk driver. 

"In 1983,1 wrote to every state for 

copies of their victims' bill of rights, 

37 wrote back." 

While some states offered compensation 

to pay for medical bills or 

counseling for violent crime victims 

— Michigan has offered such a program 

since 1977 — few actually 

spelled out rights for crime victims. 

Now. Michigan's Crime Victims 

Rights Act, passed in 1985, "is used 

as a model everywhere," Van Regenmorter 

said. 

He won bi-partisan support for the 

act. and cites the work of Livonia native 

and Detroit Recorders Court 

Judge Michael Talbot and Wayne 

County Prosecutor John O'Hair in 

supporting passage for the legislation. 

The bill allows the presiding judge 

in a crime-related case to determine 

restitution for a victim, depending 

on a criminal's ability to pay. 

But mooey for victims isn't the 

main issue. Van Regenmorter said. 

"They want to sit through the trial 

— That is a biggie with victims," he 

said. 

Prior to passage of the act, judges 

would routinely sequester victims — 

not allow them to attend the trial. 

Not only does the act allow them 

to attend. "The prosecutor must consult 

with the victim about a plea bargain. 

The law says they have to obtain 

the victim's views," he said. 

Asked if prosecutors tend to notify 

victims rather than consult with 

them, Van Regenmorter notes that a 

prosecutor's main task is to look out 

for the interests of the public, rather 

than just be an advocate for the victim. 

Yet, be said that a prosecutor in 

Grand Rapids routinely announces 

— when a plea bargain is struck — 

*«A 

that the plea has met with the approval 

of the victim. 

The act also provides for notifying 

the crime victim "not later than 24 

hours after the arraignment of the 

defendant . . . notice of the availability 

of pre-trial release for the defendant," 

the act states. 

Victims are also to be notified 

when the criminal is to be released 

to a half-way house, or is paroled. 

Employers are also required to allow 

employees to attend court proceedings 

when they are victims, or 

face a misdemeanor charge. 

Have judges and police been meeting 

the requirements of the act? 

"We had a problem a while ago in 

Flint," Van Regenmorter said, but 

added that the majority of victims 

are being contacted, as the act requires. 

Predating the Crime Victims 

Rights Act is the crime victims compensation 

program. 

"Since Oct. 1, 1977, crime victims 

in Michigan have received 12,158 

awards for compensation for out-ofpocket 

medical expenses, loss of 

earnings or support, burial benefits 

and other costs associated with the 

treatment of their injuries," according 

to the Crime Victims Compensation 

Board's most recent annual report, 

for 1987-88. 

While the restitution program under 

the victims rights act seeks to 

benefit all crime victims, the compensation 

board is charged with 

helping victims of violent crime. 

Specifically, it helps those wboee 

medical and other costs aren't paid 

for by Medicaid or Medicare, or by 

the victim's insurer, said Michael 

Fullwood, program administrator. 

Typically, crime victims are notifiiiJ 

by investigating police that the 

program is available. Eligible 

claims are processed within ooe 

year. 

"The board's job is to verify that 

claim," Fullwood said, by getting 

itemized information from police 

and doctors. 

The manmum allowable cash 

award to a victim is $15,000; the average 

award is about $2,250. 

Most awards are made "within six 

to seven months," Fullwood said. '1 

consider that to be a three-month 

backlog." 

In the first year the board operated, 

2,000 awards were made. That 

number has grown each year, and 

"we'll have around 24,000 this year," 

Fullwood said.

Cops, crooks, computers 

By Joe Bauman 

staff writer 

Technological advances made in the last 20 years have had a 

dramatic impact on how the average person lives, works and 

even plays. 

Many of the things that used to be possible only-in Flash 

Gordon movies and other sci-fi adventures now are a part of 

everyday life. 

This is certainly true in the area of law enforcement. 

Police agencies all over the country are now employing sophisticated 

equipment in their fight against crime, especially in 

the areas of drug enforcement and identifying missing persons 

and criminals. 

Local police agencies routinely use hign speed computers, 

lasers and and automobile tracking systems in their efforts to 

prevent crimes and catch criminals. 

"We are doing the same stuff today that law enforcement has 

always done, it's Just how we are doing It Is a lot different," said 

James Hauncher, director of the Michigan State Police crime 

laboratory In Northville. 

"Cops have always looked for clues to find the bad guy, but 

now we have the technology that lets us do it a lot better and a 

lot faster." 

ONE AREA that might best support {launcher's statement is 

in the area of fingerprint analysis. 

Investigators have always searched for fingerprints at a 

crime scene or oo a weapon in the hopes of tying a suspect to 

the crime scene. 

Up until a few years ago, however, investigators were limited 

to searching for prints oo a hard surface with a type of dusting 

powder. 

And when they found a viable print, the only hope of matching 

it to a suspect was if an agency already had another print of 

the person on file so a physical comparison could be made. 

Today, evidence technicians not only use powder, but Superglue 

and special lasers to find prints not visible to the human 

eye. The new equipment also allows officers to "lift" prints 

from porous surfaces that In the past would not yield a quality 

print 

And once a fingerprint has been retrieved, an Automated 

Fingerprint Identification System, or AFIS, can now search by 

computer for a possible matching print whereas before it would 

have takes the equivalent of 72 manpower years to complete 

the same task. 

Another benefit of the new system is the fact that investigators 

no longer need a suspect in order to use a fingerprint 

because AFIS randomly checks every print in a central computer 

bank for a possible match. 

"Before, if you didn't have a suspect a fingerprint was nearly 

useless," Hauncher said. "Now, you might get a match of a 

person who had no business being at the scene so you know be 

or she committed the crime." 

THE NORTHILLE crime lab serves as a support system for 

more than 100 police departments in southeast Michigan and 

Ohio, exclusive of Detroit 

Hauncher said his staff of engineers, scientists and other "academic 

types" process evidence for about 0,000 felony cases

body fluid analysis, fingerprint searches aad ballistics testing

Helton, who has bachelor's and master's degrees in forensic 

chemistry. "The challenging part is when you have to testify in 

front of a jury and try to explain your findings in terms that 

everyone can understand." 

Helton said the majority of her time is spent comparing body 

fluids in cases of sexual assault, hit-and-run accidents and "a 

few homicide cases." 

Perhaps the best-equiped police department in western 

Wayne County is Livonia, which in the past year has added a 

host of new-wave tools to its crime-fighting arsenal. 

"Today's law enforcement is a lot like Star Wars," police 

chief William Crayk said. "When I joined the staff I never 

thought we would be using Superglue and lasers to catch criminals." 

Livonia was ooe of the first departments to add in-car computers 

to its patrol units, a tool that speeds an officer's ability 

to process license and registration information and to check if 

the car has been reported stolen. 

In the last year alone, Livonia was designated as the host 

agency for an AFIS system, purchased an Omnichrome laser 

system to work in conjunction with AFIS, and added four Lo- 

Jack auto-theft prevention devices to its patrol units. 

The LoJack system is the-newest rage in preventing auto 

thefts. The system has a 95 percent recovery rate in Massachusetts 

where it was first introduced, using a type of homing device 

to find and recover stolen cars. 

LoJack uses computers mounted in police cruisers to help 

track stolen cars that are equipped with hidden transmitters. 

The homing signal is triggered when an equipped automobile 

is reported stolen and is entered into the state police computer 

network. 

Communities that don't have Livonia's resources rely on the 

State Police for such advanced technology, or share the equipment 

of departments like Livonia. 

UNDER CONSORTIUM agreements, a dozen western Wayne 

communities can request to use Livonia's AFIS system for their 

benefit 

"The simple fact is that not every department needs this type 

of equipment" said Canton public safety director John Santomauro. 

'It's great to have these devices but you have to use them to 

justify the cost." 

Now that these new crime-fighting weapons are available to 

local police agencies, the next challenge will be to make sure 

they are used i 

Livonia police had used its AFIS system about 90 times in the 

five months it has been on-line dating back to January. 

Other communities in its consortium, however, have yet to 

use the service. Only Westland has used the service out of the 

dozen communities who are eligible, and only ooe time, said 

Livonia Sgt. Joe Derscha, who is in charge of the local AFIS 

program. * 

The same is true in Taylor, which serves as the regional AFIS 

center for southern Wayne County. Not a single department 

other than Taylor has used the system since January, Taylor 

police chief Thomas Bonner said. 

"We have begun holding seminars with the other departments 

to familiarise them with AFIS," be said. "I think the problem is 

that not many people are aware that the system Is available." 

Hauncher of the state police offers a slightly different explanation 

as to why local departments are not calling oo their 

i for assistance. 

think that local departments are so used to relying on the 

State Police for the real technical stuff or for processing homicide 

crime scenes that they are a little hesitant to trust someone 

else. The reason why the AFIS regional consortiums were 

established was because our lab couldn't handle the wort load 

so something needed to be done." 

•less local agencies begin relying on Taylor, 

Livonia and other regional centers, the benefit of today's techoology 

will be I—lead "because it will be s year before we get 

to a local department's case. " 

Young offenders: 

Reach them early 

By Joe Bauman 

staff writer 

The number of serious crimes committed by 

juveniles is on the rise in many large, urban 

cities, but that's not the case in western Wayne 

County. __ 

Crimes committed by youngsters in the 

western suburbs continue to be the "traditional" 

offenses: acts of vandalism, shoplifting, 

larceny and possessing alcohol. 

The challenge facing educators, counselors 

and law enforcement personnel, experts agree, 

is to prevent juvenile crime from becoming a 

major problem in the next decade. 

"I think the family structure plays a crucial 

role in steering kids away from criminal behavior, 

whether it is destroying property or 

doing drugs," said 18th District Court Judge 

Gail McKnight. "Many times the family deals 

with a youngster's deviant behavior but a 

breakdown in the family structure leaves a 

void." 

McKnight, who spent from 1977 to 1985 

working in the juvenile system as both a prosecutor 

and referee at the Wayne County 

Youth Home, agreed that western Wayne has 

been fortunate so far in avoiding the explosion 

of drug-related offenses being committed by 

juveniles in large urban cities such as Detroit. 

'Kids for the most part are still doing the 

old-fashioned crimes in this area, although that 

is not to say a $10,000 breaking-and-entering is 

a minor offense," she said. 

Drug offenders today by far are the most 

common residents of the youth home, which 

services all of Wayne County. 

Many officials there point to the introduction 

of crack as the reason for the shift in juvenile 

crime. 

In 1986, drug offenses were the third most 

common crime committed by a youth home 

resident, numbering 257 for the year. 

Just one year later, that number skyrocketed 

to 608, surpassing car theft and weapons 

possession as the most common crime. 

By 1989, drug offenses increased to 849 cases 

and made up nearly 25 percent of the entire 

caseload. 

Youth home director Charlie Premis blamed 

the soaring juvenile crime problem on a lack 

of education and an erosion of morals and "oldfashioned 

values." 

"Most of these kids come from poor, uneducated 

families that typically have a single parent 

and no positive male role model," he said. 

"For the inner-city youngsters their role models 

and idols are the drug dealers with lots of 

cash and fancy cars." 

Premis said the way to reverse the trend is 

through better education and a return to family 

values. 

"If we don't do something to change this 

mind set we're going to lose an entire generation 

of our youth in the cities." 

Joan McCotter, a veteran Detroit Public 

Schools teacher assigned to the youth home, 

said society alone cannot be blamed for the 

influx of drugs and juvenile crime. 

"Everybody still makes choices and these 

kids don't have to choose to sell drugs at the 

age of 15," she said. "There is a problem with a 

lack of family stability, and the truly frightening 

thing is that some of the kids are feeling 

o 

G 

O 

comfort for the first time and they want to 

come back.'" 

On a recent visit to McCotter's classroom 

all but a few of the two dozen students were 

incarcerated for either selling drugs or a drug 

related offense. 

For these teens, the reason they sold drugs 

was simple: Selling crack, or rolling as it is 

called on the streets, brings instant gratification 

in the form of money, clothes, and girls. 

One youngster summed up the feelings of the 

class when he said, "You sell drugs to stay 

ahead, and you carry a gun to stay alive That s 

about life where we come from." 

Many of the kids described their Detroit 

neighborhoods as "war zones" and every student 

asked said he knew at least one friend or 

family member who had been shot. 

Locally, authorities stress education and 

early intervention as the keys to preventing 

more youngsters from choosing crime over the 

classroom. 

"We have to teach kids early on that it's OK 

to say no to peer pressure and that the way to 

future success is staying in school and staying 

away from drugs, said Sgt. Jim Garred of the 

Livonia police youth bureau. 

Garred credited programs such as Drug 

Abuse Resistance Education and the city's 

youth assistance program in minimizing juvenile 

crime. 

"First you want to prevent problems by intervening 

with programs like DARE When a 

youngster does get in trouble, we try to deal 

with it by diverting him or her away from the 

court system and into an alternative like youth 

assistance to help the child and prevent future 

problems " 

A federal grant in December 1988 allowed 

Garden City to initiate a youth services bureau 

in its police department and, with that, increase 

the number of programs aimed at minimizing 

juvenile crime. 

"We've started a big push in the elementary 

schools establishing positive attitudes by the 

kids about the department and showing them 

that police officers are not necessarily the enemy," 

officer Mark Byars said. 

Byars said Garden City's-juvenile problem, 

like the others reported in western Wayne 

communities, centers on property crimes such 

as vandalism and theft. 

"We haven't seen a narcotics problem, but 

there is no question that every community is 

experiencing some level of problem with teens 

abusing alcohol. Alcohol abuse is much more 

serious than just being a social thing." 

Although the numbers are small, there are 

serious and violent crimes being committed by 

juveniles in western Wayne, and those dealing 

with young offenders on a daily basis warn 

that the situation could become worse. 

"Parents have to take an active roll in keeping 

up with what their kids are doing and who 

they are hanging around with,"' Redford police 

youth officer Mike Kosla said. 

"Police departments can react to crimes but 

it takes a combined effort between the police, 

the schools and the parents to discourage and 

prevent criminal behavior." 

Kosla and others agree that it won't take 

long to determine whether that challenge is 

met. , 

The following comments are from youngsters being 

held at the Wayne County Youth Home. The comments f 

were made as part of a classroom assignment asking 

teens to identify the causes of juvenile crime and how 

it can be prevented. 

'Kids do crime because injoyment money pretty 

girt and to impress other people.' 

'Kid's back in the hood roll and sale dope for 

diffrent resones. See me my self I'm in here cause 

someone set me up with about 15 to 20 rocks. But 

the way I take it is that most juvenile's roll, sale, 

and steel because they want quick and fast money. 

So what I think the cure is to show a brother's and 

"" sister's another way to make fast money by the 

way of working and etc. 

'The way juvenile crimes are causedby neglect 

by parents or either by pressure of other juveniles. 

By neglect is when the father and mother would 

• fight. Then a divorce would probably happen and 

mother would usually get custody and the child 

would take it hard. Then the child will start being a 

nusciance. 

By another way a juvenile would cause crimes 

is when he is pressured. When kids would hang out 

with the wrong crowd. Then they would pressure 

them in committing crimes. For example: A kid 

named Ryan has start to hang with a gang. They 

would steel cars and they would say to Ryan to try 

but, Ryan says no. Then they would call him a iimp 

- and other names. Then he'd be pressured 1 ' 

'Juvenile crime usualy starts when you fall into 

crew or gang in your school and you always want 

to do thing other people do like shooting gun$ or 

beat up on some body or even kill somebody by 

..... accident it dosent matter you always get 

some kind of charge.' 

Money can't buy 

a low crime rate 


Crime rates for these same communities 

vary, some increasing and 

others decreasing, along with fluctuating 

population levels 

From 1985 through 1990, Redford 

Township allocated an annual average 

of 31.9 percent of its total general 

fund on police services, partially 

subsidized by a police-fire millage 

The dollar amounts ranged from 

$3 8 million in 1985 to $4 9 million 

budgeted for 1990. 

In 1985, Redford reported 3,840 

Type I crimes which was a 12 3 percent 

increase from 1980. By 1989, 

those crimes had increased slightly 

by 0.18 percent 

Over the past 15 years Redford s 

population has decreased, dropping 

10 percent between 1975 and 1980 

from 64,423 to 58,441, dropping another 

2 9 percent during the next 

five years and a projected 3.1 percent 

drop to 55.000 residents in 1990 

"It is not surprising that you 

would have an increasing crime rate 

but a decreasing population." explained 

Embert. "I am sure there 

are some social factors. Who is moving 

out? The people who are committing 

crimes, low income people 

or the unemployed or people who 

were getting ripped off." 

High unemployment doesn't always 

correlate with high crime 

rates, he said, based on study findings 

prepared by one of his graduate 

students. 

"In some cases when there was a 

decrease in unemployment, there 

was an increase in crime." Embert 

said. "It was a different kind of 

crime. They would steal from their 

employer rather than neighbors." 

From 1985 through the 1990 budget 

year. Canton Township has budgeted 

an average 37.2 percent of its 

general fund for police services. The 

dollar amounts range from $3.28 

million in 1985 to $11 million allocated 

for the 1990 fiscal year. 

Since 1975. the population in Canton 

Township has steadily increased, 

34 8 percent between 1975 and 1980. 

jumping 17.6 percent between 1980 

and 1985 

No 1985 crime statistics were 

available for Canton, when the township 

population reached 59,014. 

By 1988 when the township population 

had reached 60.547 and its police 

budget was at $2,950 million. 

Part I crimes were up 32.4 percent 

over the 1983 figures. 

In 1989. Canton spent $3.2 million 

or 36.4 percent of its budget for police 

services. During that year Part I 

or serious crimes were up 3 percent 

from the previous year, including a 

37 percent increase in criminal sexual 

conduct and a 1.2 percent increase 

in assaults 

In 1989, Livonia spent 34 8 percent 

of its general fund budget, $116 million. 

on police services. During that 

period the department reported a 

slight decrease in crime during 1989, 

a 0.7 percent drop, over the previous 

year 

In 1980, Livonia saw a population 

of 104,814, down 8 7 percent from 

1975. Crime was down 2.6 percent 

from 1975 and the trend continued in 

1985 with serious crime down 7.5 

percent, population down 4 2 percent. 

Livonia is projecting a 6 6 percent 

population increase in 1990. Serious 

crime increased 13.5 percent in 

1989. 

Garden City and Westland have 

seen declines in both crime rates and 

population In 1980, Garden City's 

population had dropped 11.6 percent 

to 35.640 from 1975 levels From 

1975 to 1980. reported serious 

crimes dropped from 2,276 to 1.911 

for a 16 percent decrease. 

The trend continued in Garden 

City as the 1985 population showed a 

5.9 percent decrease from 1980 levels, 

while serious crime was down 

28.2 percent. 

Although the city's population is 

continuing to decrease. Garden City 

reported a 4.8 percent increase in serious 

crimes during 1988, the most 

recent figures available 

, Westland's 1980 population was 

8.7 percent less than 1975, with a 

similar level of decrease, 8 5 percent, 

reported in serious crimes. Serious 

crime was down 19 percent in 

1985, compared to five years earlier, 

with the population down four percent. 

" 

In 1989. Westland's serious crime 

increased 9.9 percent over 1985 The 

city's estimated 1990 population of 

90,000 is 10.8 percent higher than 

that in 1985. 

The number of crimes reported 

and how they are classified can vary 

a great deal depending on the com 

munity and the management philosophy 

of the individual police department. 

according to Embert. 

"Some police chiefs have a bean 

counting mentality and put a rea! 

emphasis on reporting everything.' 

he said. "They figure the more the 

numbers go up, the better position 

they are in to justify their budget. 

That also gives the unions ammunition 

for pay raises. So it's a vicious 

cycle." 

Crime reporting systems 

vary among departments 

Looking at crime statistics isn't as 

straightforward as one might expect. 

even with police departments 

using uniform crime reporting systems. 

Michigan State criminal justice 

suffers and students recently looked 

at a community of 10,000 that is 

served by a 15-member police department. 

"The department was screaming 

that they needed more officers due 

to the increasing crime rate," said 

criminal justice training specialist 

Paul Embert. "They were reporting 

a higher per-capita crime rate than 

Detroit." 

As part of their study, researchers 

looked at the individual reports filed 

by officers in that department 

They wrote a report on virtually 

anything that came to their attention," 

Embert said. "There would be 

multiple reports, which resulted in 

overreporting." 

Plymouth Police Chief Richard 

Myers agreed that crime statistics 

might not show a true picture about 

crime in a community 

"By and large the statistics are 

pretty accurate. Here and at tie 

state we have been making progress," 

he said, "National studies 

show that reported crime doesn't reflect 

crime since so much is unreported. 

You have to compare that to 

victim polls, ask if it was reported 

and why not." 

Department size alone doesn't dictate 

a lower crime rate in a community, 

Myers said. 

"Demographics and location have 

a lot to do with it We are kind of 

isolated," he said. "Communities like 

Livonia and Canton Township have 

major felonies by non-resident feloni 

who drive in on the freeways. We are 

off the beaten path a bit" 

Canton public safety director John 

Santomauro agreed that many factors 

determine the amount of crime 

in a community. 

"It is hard to determine the inrv 

pact of the freeway. It's a main artery 

and criminals are mobile," he 

said. "Area and size don't always 

have a lot to do with it Highlaad 

Park at two square miles has a lot 

more crime than us with 36 square 

miles."

gauge human behavior 

and react accordingly is still a 

big asset. 

"Most of the people you 

deal with are no trouble. (Success) 

depends on your approach 

to them more than 

anything else," said officer 

Tom Harris, a 14-year veteran. 

A typical weekend night on 

Westland's streets includes 

everything from breaking up 

family arguments, to tracking 

stolen cars, to assisting a 

neighboring department on an 

EMS run and trying to keep 

drunk drivers off the road.

Suburbs: no common trends when it comes to crime 


THE OBSERVER found record-keeping of annual 

crime stattottcs sloppy and almost non-existent in aome 

departments. 

Neither Plymouth or Plymouth Township could produce 

Type I crime statistics prior to IMS. 

The Michigan State Police (for municipalities under 

10,000 population) and FBI (for municipalities 10,#* and 

over), who publish the Information after receiving It 

from local departments, had incomplete files. 

In Canton Towmhip, there were no records available 

before IMS, when the pehttc safety department want to 

computerised recordkeeping, said Pat Nemecek. community 

relations officer 

Any numbers kept by the department prior to 1»M 

were probably inaccurate and "maybe even made up, 

Nemecek said.

"IV majority (of crimes) we get here are drug-related,

ALCOHOL ABUSE and the Invasion of 

eastern Wayne County in the last IS years has been responsible 

for an Increase in violent and criminal behavior, 

according to local judges and hospital officials.

Court said the volume of cases hasat rhsnged dramatically

cases he handles has.

Battle over school aid may be 'all nighter' 

By Tim Richard 

staff writer 

A battle between school districts 

over state aid may go down to the 

wire — a long session Friday. 

Speaker Lew Dodak said it might 

be an all nighter." Rep William 

Keith. D-Garden City, said Tuesday 

• He hopes (or a conference committee 

report Wednesday or Thursday." 

Two versions of the $700 million 

school aid bill are in a joint House- 

Senate conference committee which 

wasn't scheduled to meet until late 

Wednesday and may not agree even 

then. 

The House version strips out many 

categorical aids The Senate version 

keeps them 

Sen Jack Faxon. D-Farmington 

Hills, who like Keith is a member of 

the conference panel, agreed that 

"nothing so far" has happened since 

the two chambers passed widely different 

versions of the aid bill. 

LAWMAKERS wanted to adjourn 

for the summer June 14 in order to 

get on the primary campaign trail 

But they had to push that date 

back two weeks because of electionyear 

disagreements over many 

items Fourth of July speech engagements 

await them 

The last day of session often is an 

"all nighter," with literally hundreds 

of roll calls and last-minute compromises 

Despite being from the Democratic 

Party. Faxon and Keith are poles 

apart on the of categoricals — aid to 

all districts, rich or poor, for such 

specialized budget items as pensions, 

talented and gifted programs, transportation. 

pregnant teens, special education 

— 29 programs altogether 

• "The House came out with an extreme 

posiUon," said Faxon. "The 

House wanted to wipe 'em all away." 

KEITH WOULD like to get rid of 

all categorical and add the money to 

the school aid fund, leaving districts 

the option of how to spend it. 

He says his method would raise 

the number of districts receiving 

state aid from 70 percent to nearly

"I don't think we'll ever do away 

entirely with the categoricals." 

Keith said, "but it's gotten out of 

hand 

"Since I've been up here (18 

years), we've gone from eight underfunded 

categoricals to 29 underfunded 

categoricals A buzzword 

starts, and we put |5 million into a 

categorical for it when you need 430 

million to do the job." 

He hinted at a compromise between 

the chairs of the two appropriations 

subcommittees on education 

— Sen. Dan DeGrow, R-Port Huron, 

and Rep. James O'Neill, D-Saginaw 

" School districts," Keith went on. 

"are the only local units of government 

for which the state pays social 

security and pension costs. We don't 

do it for townships. We don't do it for 

city police departments. We don't do 

it for road commissions 

"The irony is that no one acknowledges 

the state does it." 

Keith said it makes no sense to 

send millions in pension aid to the 

Bloomfield Hills-type districts, 

which can spend $7,000 to $8,000 per 

student, when the money can be better 

used in Inkster 

FAXON'S SENATE district includes 

such out-of-formula school 

systems as Southfield, Farmington 

and Novi. 

- They and other districts in the 

high-tech belt would get little or no 

state aid even if all the categoricals 

were eliminated and all the money 

put into general aid 

Keith said he may never realize 

his goal of eliminating all categoricals, 

but argued that's the direction 

in which to move. 

"I got a blistering letter from a 

woman in Tecumseh," Keith said, 

"on the gifted and talented program 

She said Tecumseh would $78,000 for 

the gifted and talented program. 

"But under my proposal, Tecumseh 

would have got $780,000 more in 

(general) state aid."

Mettetal 

Canton should delay decision 

THE FUTURE OF Mettetal Airport is 

doubtful The owners say they'll sell it 

and state and federal officials, along 

with local pilots, are trying to persuade 

Canton Township to buy it and keep it as an airport 

The airport would cost about $4 million, with 

about 95 percent of that money coming from the 

federal and state governments. 

We have some serious doubts about preserving 

the airport, and we don't envy Canton officials 

who will eventually have to make a decision on 

the issue. 

From what we heard at recent public hearings, 

we think Canton should delay making a decision 

until it can come up with more answers from 

both sides. 

One thing that bothers us about the issue is a 

so-called state study which states that business 

travelers who use the airport spend about $100 in 

the community when they arrive 

That sounds good on paper, but we wonder 

about the accuracy of such studies Business 

travelers coming to the Metro Detroit area 

aren't going to spend all their money in the community 

where their plane lands. They are going 

to drive to various parts of the metro area, stay 

in a hotel or motel and do their business. 

BASICALLY THEY'RE just using Canton as a 

landing strip 

The argument about the value to Canton of 

business travel has been used by pilots trying to 

convince the township to buy the airport. We 

don't think it holds water. 

Another argument is that the airport can be 

used for medical emergencies. That's another 

one we wonder about. The pilots make the claim, 

but really can't back it up with facts. 

We suspect the real reason that they want the 

township to buy the airport is so they can fly 

their planes out of it. We don't think there's anything 

wrong with that. Much of the money for 

such a purchase would come from taxes on airplane 

fuel. We can see the fairness of using such 

money for an airport purchase. 

However, there are still some questions about 

the township's financial liability in such a purchase. 

One is maintenance costs. At first it was 

believed that state and federal money could be 

used for maintenance, but that's apparently not 

true. 

We don't think the public should get stuck paying 

for airport maintenance To us. that's something 

that the users should pay for. 

Also, there's the federal and state requirement 

that the township keep the property operating as 

an airport for 20 years. We think that's too long 

The world in suburban Detroit changes quickly, 

too quickly for the township to get stuck with a 

20-year deal. 

SOME HAVE SUGGESTED that a small airport 

for private planes is like a public marina 

where boats are docked. They're public facilities 

used by people wealthy enough to own boats. 

We don't buy that argument. Marinas are usually 

good for the local economy because boats 

buy services from businesses near the marina 

and the marinas themselves become tourist attractions 

That's not true with a airport. When a business 

traveler gets out of a plane he or she gets in a car 

and usually leaves the area. The same is true for 

a recreational pilot. Pilots get in their cars, drive 

to the airport, fly their plane and return to the 

airport. They then get in their cars and leave. 

However, boaters don't have a way to get 

around when they dock their craft at a marina, 

they spend money at local businesses. 

If Canton were a community in out-state 

Michigan, we could get behind a purchase proposal. 

Airports help link small towns to the outside 

world. But that's just not the case in Canton 

where Metro and Willow Run airports are nearby 

We just can't get behind the purchase proposal 

The arguments of the pro-purchase side just 

aren't strong enough. 

We think the township should take a long, hard 

look at the proposal. 

Fighting crime 

Solutions start with residents 

MORE POLICE, tougher judges, better 

computers and bigger weapons won't 

— by themselves — lead to less crime 

in western Wayne County. 

Those pleas, routinely carted out by public 

safety officials and office-seeking politicians, 

are easy answers. All we need is the tools and we 

can go out and do the job, they keep telling us. 

We're sorry, but they're wrong. A problem as 

complex this one has no easy solutions. 

Better government accountability and improved 

community involvement would be good 

places to start though. 

— When a team of reporters began looking into 

fhe way crime has changed in our suburbs during 

the past two decades they never dreamed the 

toughest part of the job would be getting their 

Hands on accurate documentation. Statistics, afjer 

all. are the backbone of most bureaucracies. 

Z But sloppy or non-existent record-keeping by 

Xpany suburban police departments makes us 

yonder How can a police chief justify a request 

for more officers or better equipment without 

the numbers to back up his stated need? In turn, 

iow do local taxpayers, who are footing the bill, 

inow these expenditures are necessary? 

THIS IS PARTICULARLY important since 

throwing more money into a community's public 

safety pot doesn't guarantee more success in 

fighting crime. For example, between 1985 and 

1990 Redford Township increased it's police services

Yet the township's per capita crime rate increased 

by about 3 percent during the same period. 

Resident involvement, too, is a key element.

Neighborhood Watch produces results Garden 

City, whose program encompasses about 25 percent 

of the residential community, is one example 

of a successful program. Residents in other 

communities notably Plymouth, have been apathetic 

and slow to adopt this low-cost, pro-active 

way to deter crime 

Meanwhile, juvenile crime and drug abuse are 

reduced only through strong family and community

CRIME 

Lastly, while we don't discourage the increased 

reliance on high-tech investigative tools 

by local police departments, we think such technology 

should be shared. This would be of particular 

benefit to our older suburbs that don't have 

the tax base to support their own purchases 

Livonia police told us their AFIS (Automated 

Fingerprint Identification System) is available 

for use by other local departments but has never 

been 1 requested 

Cooperative efforts such as the Western Wayne 

Auto Theft Elimination Effort have proven to be 

successful tools in fighting specific crimes on a 

regional front, as the number of cars reported 

stolen in the targeted area has dropped signifiantly 

in the last few years. Hopefully, similar 

efforts can be used to fight other crimes like 

drugs and property theft rings 

The Wayne County Police Chief's Association 

and Conference of Western Wayne could help 

promote cooperation and serve as informational 

clearinghouses in this area 

Crime, unfortunately, has become a basic, everyday 

fact of life In our suburbs. If you havent 

been victimized, chances are you know a friend 

or relative who has. If not, remember the last 

piece of clothing you purchased at your local 

mall. It had a built-in premium to cover the retailer's 

shoplifting losses

Politicians, TV trivialize 

substance of message 

PEOPLE working for John Engler. 

the Republican candidate for 

governor, last month induced The 

Detroit News to run a story accusing 

Gov. James Blanchard's first TV 

campaign ad of being racist. Charge 

and rebuttal dominated Michigan 

politics for a week. 

Item: Two weeks ago Blanchard's 

first negative campaign ad attacked 

Engler for being soft on pollution. 

The ad was 10 seconds long. 

Item: Last week I overheard a 

leading Detroit TV news person tell 

a reporter that he wanted "no more 

than a nine-second sound bite" about 

refinancing our public school system. 

It's a bad year. TV trivia continues 

to infest the substance of politics. 

Nasty one-liners. Infotainment. 

Trash politics and trash politicians. 

MY THINKING about why our 

politics have descended to such a 

state was enormously expanded last 

week in England at a conference on 

politics and the media. A bunch of 

heavyweights struggled to make 

sense of our increasingly wretched 

political system. 

Following the assassination of 

President Kennedy, our country experienced 

four straight failed presidencies 

— Johnson, Nixoo, Ford and 

Carter. No country can withstand 

such failures without severe damage. 

Why did they fail? None could sustain 

the support of the American 

people, either for the policies or 

their personal standing as leaders. 

• Lyndon Johnson could not bold 

the country together in support of 

the war in Vietnam. As moral and 

political opposition mounted, Johnson, 

who had been elected in 1964 by 

a landslide, was forced to withdraw 

in 1968. TV contributed to his downfall 

by showing — in living color — 

the destruction of Vietnamese villag- 

from our readers 

Warnings on 

records are 

necessary 

To the editor 

I am new to the Canton Community 

and have found it pleasanL friendly 

and welcoming. However, I am 

willing to risk that by expressing 

what you would call an "intolerant" 

opinion. 

In last week's editorial you basically 

called the use of warning labels 

on records with sexually explicit lyrics 

intolerant. If carried to its logical 

conclusion that argument would lead 

us to call the Surgeon General's 

warning labels oo cigarettes and alcohol 

intolerant. After all, cigarette 

and alcohol manufacturers have the 

same right to free speech as others, 

and no ooe is forced to consume 

their products In my opinion, sexually 

explicit material is about as 

good for the average consumer as 

cancer and fetal alcohol syndrome. 

According to a 1957 Supreme 

Court ruling, the First Amendment 

was not designed to protect that 

es and the maiming of American 

GIs. 

• Richard Nixon and his band 

tried to subvert the political institutions 

of the country When the story 

finally broke, the president was 

nearly impeached, and his aides 

were convicted of crimes. With 

Watergate hearings on live TV. Nixon's 

fate was sealed. 

• Jerry Ford came into office as 

a healer, living proof the system 

worked. His unexpected pardon of 

Nixon and his persistent bumbling — 

stumbles, slips, hooked golf shots on 

TV — cost him personal stature and 

probably the 1976 election. 

• Jimmy Carter's greatest 

moment — his unprecedented walk 

down Pennsylvania Avenue after his 

inauguration — was as telegenic as 

his worst — constant repetition on 

TV news about the American hostages 

in Iran. His failure to stand tall 

with the hostages and his preoccupation 

with details cost him his stature. 

Their failures in policy and practice, 

portrayed on TV, told the tale, 

TV is the primary medium through 

which American public opinion is 

shaped. 

THINGS WERE NOT always so. 

Through the 1960s, the political party 

was the primary mechanism 

through which public opinion was expressed. 

Political insiders made nominations 

to high office at conventions, 

without primaries or public involvement. 

Patrons nurtured developing 

careers and handed out jobs. One 

climbed the ladder by obeying the 

rule: "To get along, go along." 

Watergate hastened the demise of 

the old insider politics. Parties 

received their death blow when TV 

made it possible for candidates to 

talk directly with the people without 

the intermediary of campaign staffs 

which would encourage people to act 

in immoral ways, that which endangers 

national security, or that which 

invades an individual's privacy. Obscenity, 

peddled as artistic expression, 

may be illegal according to all 

three of the above criteria. 

Obscene lyrics (movies, etc.) may 

encourage people to sexual activity 

of all types which can result in serious 

problems: STDs, AIDS, broken 

or damaged relationships, and teen 

pregnancy Teen pregnancy which is 

up three times that of twenty years 

ago, leads to poverty and illiteracy. 

These have led to serious educational 

and economic problems which indeed 

threaten our national security. 

And what about invasion of personal 

privacy? According to the CBS 

Evening News, "rape has increased 

four times faster than any other 

crime control." Also, ooe out of five 

freshmen women in state supported 

universities is a victim of date rape 

Could this invasion of privacy be 

connected with the easing of restrictions 

on the sale and legal expression 

of obscenity?

RONALD REAGAN'S presidency 

pivoted around a central point: 

Whereas four previous presidents 

had failed because they either didn't 

appreciate or couldn't manage the 

power of TV to create public opinion, 

this presidency would make no 

such mistake, 

Reagan's Administration gave 

ceaseless attention to media management, 

substituting pboto opportunities 

for substance, camera angles 

for policy. 

What we critics missed is that 

Reagan's people knew exactly what 

they were doing. With the rise of TV 

and the fall of political parties, they 

would summon, shape and manipulate 

the media. 

It worked. Reagan's presidency 

was successful when weighed grossly 

against its predecessors. 

That is why Gov. Blanchard's administration 

has concentrated on 

media in the past, aad why both 

Blanchard and Engler concentrate 

on TV in this campaign.

he has a good heart and a 

smart head I also believe he can 

prevent the dismantling of South African 

apartheid from becoming a

And I think it's great that millions

Q-. One of the best teachers we 

have in our building is being reassigned. 

She is a new teacher and 

wants to stay bat says sbe has no 

choice. We (parents) really want her 

to stay. Doesn't the teacher have any 

say in this issue' Also, we don't believe 

the teacher we are getting back 

is as good as the teacher leaving us. 

What can we do? 

A: You and the building principal 

probably can't do anything A teacher 

on a leave of absence, as in your 

case, has decided to return to teaching 

Teachers on leave, because of 

seniority clauses in most teacher 

contracts, must be assigned a position 

Many contracts state that returning 

teachers are to be assigned 

back into the same grade level or 

subject area they left. 

Another factor in your case is that 

your district is experiencing a slight 

decline in enrollment. Other elementary 

buildings in your district are 

losing students 

The most seniored teachers in the 

Doc 

J Doyle 

buildings that are losing students 

have the option to "bump" the least 

seniored teachers in your building — 

possibly the teacher you like so 

much Your situation is not nearly as 

drastic as in those districts with severe 

declining enrollment problems 

Theoretically you could have a 

first grade teacher with a K-8 certification 

(eligible to teach students in 

kindergarten through the eighth 

grade) assigned to teach seventh 

grade science More tragic would be 

the eighth grade math teacher 

with 18 years experience reassigned 

to teach kindergarten. 

Teachers in these situauons usually 

take what they can get to keep the

weeks, while hoping to eventually be 

reassigned into their area of expertise 

So there are different factors that 

are probably affecting your favorite 

teacher's recent transfer 

Factors such as teachers with the 

most seniority in the district requesting 

a voluntary transfer. These 

transfers are possible if the receiving 

principal wants the teacher In 

some districts the principal has to 

take them 

One case I clearly remember is 

when 10-12 teachers in a building requested 

a transfer from the building. 

That sends up a red flag. There is 

something wrong in that building. 

Probably a severe personality conflict 

between teachers and the principal 

or between the teachers and 

parents. 

In another case there was a principal 

who was a "nice guy." He cooperated 

150 percent with central off- 

ice and ended up receiving the majority 

of those teachers, many very 

aggressive, head-strong individuals, 

that no other principal in the district 

cared to take 

This principal was a dear man 

with the patience of Job. Unfortunately 

or fortunately, depending 

on your view, the teachers literally 

ran the building. 

Many factors affect teacher placement. 

Most districts work d: ligently 

to maintain balanced staffs in each 

building from a philosophy of what is 

in the best interest of the children 

and their over-all school district program.

Official disputes drug fund report 

By Wayne Peal 

staff writer 

A report alleging they misused 

mooey earmarked for new drug enforcement 

offices was inaccurate 

and "grossly exaggerated." county 

building division officials said Tuesday. 

But county commissioners investigating 

the issue said they still sought 

more information as to why the drug 

unit offices were taking so long to 

complete. 

County building director Stanley 

Wyre responded to allegations raised 

by a May report issued by county auditor 

general Ramona Henderson. 

In the report, Henderson said she 

witnessed evidence material earmarked 

for drug unit offices at 640 

Temple, Detroit, being diverted to 

upstairs offices being completed for 

the county air pollution control division 

— violating restrictions placed 

on the federal money being used in 

the drug unit project. 

But Wyre. speaking before the 

county audit committee, said the auditor's 

report was wrong. 

"THIS IS based on misinformation, 

it's grossly exaggerated," Wyre 

said. 

The auditor's report said an air 

conditioning unit was diverted from 

the unfinished fifth floor drug unit 

offices, more sheet metal was 

bought with drug unit money than 

was necessary for the project and 

that material stored in the break-in 

prone building was inadequately protected. 

In a written report of his own, 

Wyre said all sheet metal stored on 

the floor would be used on the floor 

and that material is adequately protected. 

The 229 pieces of sheet metal are 

needed for the office's ventilation 

and air conditioning system, Wyre 

said. Henderson had said only 59 

pieces of sheet mental were necessary. 

Regarding safety issues, Wyre 

said the building division monitors 

building entrances, assisted by a security 

guard and maintenance supervisor. 

THE ONLY piece of material 

moved from the site, he said, was an 

air conditioning unit temporarily 

moved to the seventh floor air pollution 

control division offices, then returned. 

Despite Wyre's responses, several 

commissioners said they believed 

upatAlia V7ili\_CO UIC A»WI " u u i u is*- v u vaa^ » I W I J 

more could be done to protect building 

material. They noted a security 

system bought in November had yet 

to be installed. 

Commissioners also expressed disappointment 

drug unit offices, 

promised two years ago, weren't 

completed. Temporary offices are 

inadequate, said Commissioner Susan 

Hubbard, D-Dearborn 

"What concerns me is we're putting 

these people in an office that's 

uninhabitable," Hubbard said. 

Commissioner Kay Beard, D-Inkster, 

said completion of drug unit offices 

should take priority over other 

projects, 

"It seems like every floor is getting 

completed but the fifth floor," 

she said.

CAMP SESSIONS were held 

June 18-22. Science interpreter

right along each day. 

The camp, for kids ages 7-11, included 

an introduction to principles

"We talk about gravity and air 

pressure," said Cone, a Pontiac resident 

who grew up In Canton and 

graduated from Plymouth Canton

talked about the moon and bow it's

spent some time in a portable

constellations. They also spent 

time in a space shuttle simulator.

P.J. Mysliwiec concentrates on getting his kite airborne. The air and space camp was co-sponsored by the Living Science 

Foundation and Plymouth-Canton Community Education. 

Cone said. 

Summertime camps offered by 

the Living Science Foundation include 

many hands-on activities 

"because that's the way you learn," 

said Bonnie Neff, camp director 

for the foundation. "Science is 

doing. It's a time for extensive science 

investigations." 

Often, students dont get those 

hands-on opportunities until they're 

older. The summertime camps 

help make learning fun for preschool 

through middle school students. 

"That*s when they're interested," 

Neff said. "Science is a fun part of 

school." 

Younger students generally 

aren't intimidated by science and 

don't think they have to be an Albert 

Einstein or Marie Curie to understand 

science. 

The air and space camp is one of 

a number offered throughout Michigan 

by the Novi-based Living Science 

Foundation, which also sponsors 

science programs during the 

school year. 

CAMPERS COME to realize that 

science isn't just for the elite, Neff 

said. It's a process of making observations, 

and is similar in many 

ways to shopping. 

Someone shopping for groceries 

must make observations and react 

to thoee observations. Shoppers 

must classify things, make predictions 

and use various measurements, 

she said. 

Such activities as creating and 

flying kites or building and launching 

rockets help children develop 

teamwork skills, she said. For the 

space shuttle simulation, campers 

are given different jobs and must 

work together as a team. 

"There's a lot of experimentation 

and expressing of ideas," Neff 

said. "They become more familiar 

with how to do hands-on things." 

The recent camp at Hulsing Elementary 

School included only boys, 

although girls typically do sign up 

for camp sessions and are interested 

in science, she said. Most of 

those who teach for the Living Science 

Foundation are women. 

"It's not a minority position. 

Women are good scientists. I think 

science education is an excellent 

field for women."

Books give eager readers food for thought 

By JuMe Brown 

staff writer 

Maureen Schiffman knows the 

"Menu of Books" offers something 

for everyone. 

"You can pick and choose what 

suits your taste," said Schiffman. 

who performed last week for youngsters 

at the Dunning-Hough Library. 

The library's summer reading program 

for school-age children includes 

a number of activity seesions. 

Schiffman, a Novi resident performed 

the afternoon of Thursday, 

June 21, for youngsters ages 8-8. 

"I'm stressing books and bow 

much we can learn from books," she 

said. "Books are going to teach us a 

lot about our world." 

Schiffman didn't come to the library 

all by herself. She brought several 

friends with her, including Professor 

Reads lot who's made of a cereal 

box and has a banana for a noee. 

THE RATHER scholarly Professor 

Readalot who wears a chefs 

the grocery store and 

to discover that the 

foods there could talk. Thoee foods 

were curious about just what they 

were, and asked Readalot to help 

tbem with that identification pro- 

Many of the foods came from 

other countries, including the everpopular 

french fries, and spoke with 

distinctive accents. 

"So we have a little bit of international 

flair," Schiffman said. 

Youngsters sang a number of 

songs, including "I Like To Eat Apples 

and Bananas." Schiffman, who 

has a 4-year-old son, encourages 

children to get involved in her performances. 

"The whole thing is children coming 

up and participating with me." 

Schiffman sings and plays musical 

instruments during performances, 

and concentrates on helping children 

develop self-esteem. 

Schiffman * friend. Coco, a mookey 

puppet also came to the library 

last week. He asked Schiffman to 

take him shopping la a make-believe 

grocery store, sad they choee nutritious 

foods. 

Coco's friend, Moco, didn't show 

such good judgment Instead, be 

loaded up oo junk food. Later, Moco 

lost the running race at the library 

because he didn't have the necessary 

energy. CoCo, winner of the race, 

won two "Curious George" books for 

his efforts. 

SCHIFFMAN EMPHASIZES the 

importance of good outritioo in her 

presentations She's performing at 

some 18 area libraries this summer, 

and wrote the "Menu of Books" program 

for library activity sossions- 

This year's theme for the reading 

program is "Batches of Books," so 

Schiffman wanted to write something 

that included references to 

food. She's written a number of other 

programs with different themes for 

She's a fall-time performer, 

taught preschool for about eight 

years aad has also taught elementary 

school and junior high schooL 

She made a videotape, "A Warm 

Surtuner Evening With 

Coco," that Includes scenes from an 

outdoor concert and a visit to a 

farm. She also recorded a reesstts. 

"Sing s Little Happy Song," featuring 

a number of children's songs she 

composed 

Schiffman. a University of Michigan 

graduate with a bachelor's degree 

in education, is a member of 

the Puppeteers Guild and National 

Association for the Education of 

Young Children. She performs at 

many libraries, schools, community 

centers, camps and other places. 

"I like the arts so much." said 

Schiffman, whose background includes 

experience in art music and 

dsnce. Her current works allows ber 

to use those talents 

So it's s real nice mix of things. 

This is really my love." 

THIS WAS Schiffman'! first 

mer performance at the Dunning- 

Hough Library She's also performing 

for preschoolers and for children 

ages 8-12 at the Plymouth library 

this summer, and will perform for 

school-age kkk at the Cantoo Public

out" >aid Pam Rawlinson, assistant 

director of the Dunning-Hough Library 

Registration for the summer 

reading program in Plymouth began 

last week. 

"We're real pleased with the response," 

she said. More than 250 

school-age children signed up the 

first week. 

"Our objective is to get them to 

read. It's something to do, and just to 

keep their reading skills up." That's 

particularly important for children 

who are just learning bow to read.

Timeless 

Classical look suits area businesswoman 

By Julie Brown 

staff writer 

K.C Mueller wasn't really thinking 

about patriotism when she 

chose clothes to wear on the campaign 

trail 

Mueller ran for the Plymouth- 

Canton Community Schools Board 

of Education this June She bought 

a new blue suit and a red dress for 

the campaign She also bought a 

white blouse and wore several 

white outfits she already owned 

' Red, white and blue, very patriotic. 

Those are the things I went 

to." said Mueller, a Realtor and 

owner of K.C. Colonial Real Estate 

in Plymouth 

She's found that women on the 

campaign trail face greater scrutiny 

than their male counterparts do 

Men running for office don't have 

to give as much thought to appearance 

and can wear more casual attire. 

"I really like the classical look, 

something that isn't too trendy," 

said Mueller, whose run for the 

school board was unsuccessful. 

SHE LOOKS for good-quality 

fabrics that will wear well, and the 

items she bought for the campaign 

will blend in with her regular 

wardrobe 

"I try to shop in Plymouth first 

because of the convenience and because 

of the quality that I believe 

is here." She visits Me and Mr 

Jones, Unique Accessories and 

other local stores 

Occasionally, Mueller shops at 

Lord L Taylor or Hudson's. She 

goes to those department stores for 

evening attire, including gowns for 

the annual Scholarship Ball sponsored 

by the Woman's Club of 

Plymouth Mueller was instmmen- 

t really tike the 

classical look, 

something that isn't 

too trendy.'

off the cuff 

tal in establishing that event, which 

honors outstanding high school seniors 

from the Plymouth-Canton 

community. 

For work. Mueller wears suits or 

dresses. She's found a professional 

appearance is essential for people 

who work in real estate. 

" Everything about you reflects 

on the company." 

She likes longer jackets, and isn't 

all that enthused about wearing 

short-sleeved blouses or dresses. 

"That's a personal quirk." She 

has a couple dresses with short 

sleeves, but doesn't wear them often. 

Mueller's more likely to wear 

something sleeveless, although she 

doesn't care for that look at work. 

"It approaches too casual. We 

have to be comfortable but professional 

" 

MAINTAINING A professional 

appearance in the summertime 

isn't difficult for Mueller, who is in 

and out of an air-conditioned car 

and buildings all day. She buys 

things made of good-quality fabrics 

that don't wrinkle much. 

Mueller went to That's My Color 

in Plymouth and learned what colors 

were best for her. She used to 

wear a lot of beiges and blues, but 

began to buy clothes in more vivid 

colors, including emerald greens, 

royal blues and bright reds. 

She chooses her accessories with 

care 

"I'm very happy that pearls are 

in because I love pearls." She's also 

partial to gold jewelry and to nice 

costume jewelry that matches various 

outfits. 

Mueller and her husband live in 

Plymouth Township and have one 

daughter, a University of Michigan 

student. Mueller's real estate career 

means she works varied hours, 

including weekends 

In her younger days, Mueller 

learned to sew. primarily because 

she didn't care for the available 

clothing styles. Her busy schedule

now doesn't leave much time for 

that, although she's found a way to 

make shopping easier 

"I do quite a bit more catalog 

shopping " Mueller buys casual 

clothes, suits, dresses and even 

some evening attire through catalogs. 

acquiring about 20 percent of 

her wardrobe that way. 

MUELLER DOESN'T wear casual 

clothes too often, although she 

does have some for vacations. She 

rarely wears shorts. 

"I never used to wear jeans." She 

was born in New York, raised in 

New Jersey and began her career 

in New York City. 

"Jeans were just something you 

didn't wear ever." She now occasionally 

wears them in her home or 

garden. 

Mueller dresses in a way that 

makes her comfortable. 

"I dress for me." 

She believes that students tend to 

do better in school if they're 

dressed appropriately. The words 

"dress code" set off an alarm for 

some students, but Mueller believes 

a self-imposed dress code 

has merit for students. 

"It would be very nice if it could 

come from the students " 

Wearing jeans to school is acceptable. 

she said, but those jeans 

should be neat and clean. Wearing 

such clothing can help to boost students' 

academic performance, she 

said, and clothes for school needn't 

be expensive. 

"I just think they should redirect 

their thinking, their priorities as to 

what's appropriate in school. 

There's nothing wrong with being 

clean and neat"

Dress selection 

can keep Lyme 

Disease at bay 

Summer has arrived and people 

are spending more and more 

time outdoors. 

For tbe most part, summertime 

activities are enjoyable and 

risk free, but people should be 

aware of Mother Nature's own 

dangers. 

For example, this is tbe time of 

year when people are most susceptible 

to Lyme disease. Tbe illness 

is caused by tick bites that 

can lead to severe arthritis symptoms 

and a number of other effects. 

According to the Michigan 

chapter of the Arthritis Foundation, 

people who live, work near 

or enter wooded or marshy areas 

are most susceptible to Lyme 

Disease because the ticks which 

carry the discase-causing bacteria 

live in sech areas. 

Most people who are bitten by 

an infected tick develop a large, 

expanding rash around the area 

of the bite. Rashes vary in size, 

shape and color, but often look 

like a red ring with a clear center. 

At the onset, signs of Lyme Disease 

include flu-like symptoms 

out of season, such as a stiff neck, 

chills, fever, sore throat, headaches. 

fatigue and joint pain. And 

unlike, some types of arthritis, 

the pain seems to move from 

joint to joint 

SOME PEOPLE who become 

H o m e r , 

infected develop more serious 

problems. An irregular heartbeat 

may occur, sometimes requiring 

implantation of a temporary pacemaker. 

Lyme Disease also can cause 

problems with the central nervous 

system, causing meningitis, 

facial palsy or encephalopathy. 

While people should be on 

guard against Lyme Disease, people 

shouldn't become alarmed or 

paranoid to the point where 

they're afraid to go outside. By 

taking the needed precautions 

against the disease, people can 

still enjoy their favorite summertime 

activities. 

There are several things people 

can do to guard against the disease. 

according to the foundation; 

• Wear protective clothing 

like long skirts or pants with the 

legs tucked inside of socks. 

• Check yourself and your 

children for ticks. Look closely at 

the hair, ears, underarms, trunk 

of the body, groin and back of the 

knees.

Lyme Disease, write to the

Day-trippers 

gamble on 

Atlantic City 

By Chartene Mitchell 

special writer 

Need a vacation but can't take tbe time? 

That's tbe dilemma people are facing today as 

workdays get longer and time out periods are 

few. 

If you want to get away from it all without 

spending mucb time or money. Hamilton, Miller, 

Hudson & Fayne Travel of Southfield may have 

your problem solved. With its one-day jaunts to 

places like Atlantic City, N.J. and Nassau, Bahamas 

you can spend tbe day away from home 

without having to pack a bag! 

For $99 with advanced reservations, you can 

leave Detroit Metro Airport in the morning and 

return just after midnight. Tbe time between 

flights is spent having a ball. 

Tbe coat includes round trip airfare, a $15 

meal coupon and transfers to and from the airport 

in Atlantic City. Also, to get you started in 

the casino, Hamilton Miller gives every traveler 

$30 in quarters. If you don't want to play the 

slots with the money, it's yours to keep. 

The $15 meal coupon is good at any of the 

restaurants at Tropworld and there's plenty to 

choose from including over-sized deli sandwiches, 

gourmet seafood or steaks grilled before 

your eyes. 

If you travel in a group or with a friend, you 

can spend time chatting on the way without 

bringing work up. 

IF YOU decide to go alone, as many do. it's 

fun meeting others who are trying to "get away" 

for tbe same reasons. 

"They go because it's a lot of fun," said Ron 

Fayne, vice president of Hamilton Miller. "We 

get a lot of repeaters with this trip. Senior citizens 

and other groups who go about twice a 

year." 

There is a variety of travelers on these trips 

— from senior citizens and families to couples 

and singles. 

That's why we use Tropworld as our hotel," 

Fayne said. "Everything is there, from the casinos 

and restaurants, to the big indoor amusement 

center for the kids." 

The trip is great for groups and companies 

that give their employees the day off to spend 

together. 

Mel Farr Automotive Group, based in Oak 

Park, sponsored a trip with 37 auto salespeople, 

managers and dealership executives. 

"I thought it would be fun for me to do something 

unusual with the people who work for me," 

said Mel Farr, president of Mel Farr Automotive 

Group and owner of three Oakland County 

dealerships. 

"We spent about $100 in the slot machines and 

won over $400 before we stopped," said a 57year-old 

woman who traveled with her daughter. 

Tbe duo took their winnings to the shops on 

Tbe Boardwalk and purchased several souvenirs 

with cash left over to brag about. 

NOT EVERYONE was so lucky. Tony Turner, 

Mel Farr car salesman, will attest tbe hazards 

of a trip like this. He and Bill Bolzen, a co-work - 

er, sat at one casino table for four hours hoping 

to hit the jackpot. 

"I lost a bundle, don't tell my wife," Tony 

joked. 

Rico Kirkland of Detroit received a one-day 

trip as a gift from his mother-in-law. 

"It's my first time here and it's a lot of fun," 

Kirkland said. "I just hope I don't lose too mucb 

money."

Pack up 

the kids 

and go 

By DanM Alpert 


It was four years after I wrote an article about 

budget touring in Scandinavia that I ran into the editor 

who published it. He asked me when I might submit 

another story. 

"My wings are clipped," I explained. "Doreen and I 

are into bringing up Hilary, our 1-year-old daughter." 

Another four years passed, and despite our desire to 

wander, along came our son, Neil. It would be awhile 

before we could have a meaningful family vacation. 

We knew we'd have to edge our way back into the 

kind of travel we love, exploring new places on our 

own, but this time with children. Now, our step-by-step 

plan seems to be working and may help other parents 

get back on the road again. 

BUILDING STAMINA 

Those treks along 1-94 to visit Grandma and Grandpa 

in Chicago are not the trips that I could write about. 

But like any drive of more than four hours to friends 

or relatives, they give even a pre-toddler a sense of 

distance between rest areas, anticipation of stopping 

for a snack and excitement of getting to where you're 

going. 

For the slightly older child, we learn packing limitations 

and the thrill of endlessly examining and re-folding 

maps and the magic moment of crossing a state 

line. All of this exposure provides context for trips to 

come without the added pressure of actually touring 

each destination if you don't want to. 

CAN YOU SAY MOTEL? 

After the basic drive has been mastered, it's time to 

check out and into a motel. The goal here is to balance 

excitement with sleep. It may not work, so a single 

overnighter is the way to try it. 

For our overnight trip, we drove to Sea World, south 

of Cleveland, checking into a nearby Knight's Inn at 

what was supposed to be a'lVi-year-old Neil's afternoon 

nap time. He went wild. 

This was Fantasy land to him. The whole family in 

one room! Suitcases to pull apart! Running back and 

forth between TV and the heating /cooling unit, turning 

dials and pushing buttons. Just opening a drawer and 

discovering a Gideon Bible brought cries of "Book! 

Book!" 

We were not the first visitors to get to Sea World the 

next morning, but knowing that our vacation would 

end that night helped keep us going through what was 

actually an enjoyable visit More importantly, the real 

mission of exposing the youngest to "Phase IT' of travel 

had been accomplished and somehow survived. 

KIDDIE VACATIONS 

If Neil "over estimated" a room at Knight's Inn, 

what word can describe experiencing Disney World at 

age 2? 

From the excitement of Metro Airport, to the plane 

ride, to the buses and rental cars, to the Big Park 

itself, this was a quantum leap in vacationing. 

With our previous motel experience still fresh in our 

memories (I had taken videos) we decided that two 

adjoining rooms at a more distant but less expensive 

Quality Inn would be the logical self defense. 

Neil could be put to bed in one room while Doreen, 

Hilary and I stayed in the other room. Then after he 

fell asleep in the crib, Hilary could be moved Into the 

bed in that other room. It worked, and in the morning, 

I walked in to find them both in his crib, munching 

Cheerios and watching Sesame Street. 

This setup is fine, but too unnecessarily costly to be 

anything more than a temporary solution to a young 

traveler's excitement. Our next attempt would be one 

room for two nights.

Golfing is a BEAR at resort

Iris

In our family we have a saying 

about golf. As you go out the door 

with a club in your band, somebody 

yells, "golf your age!" This gets easier 

as you get older so by age 60 you 

hope to score SO. for nine boles that 

is. - 

With this background ia mind, you 

will not be surprised that I doo't golf

ropss, the spectators who scatter 

quickly when the pros occasionally 

book the ball into the crowd. 

If you ever eondeted how people 

grow up to be "real golfers," meet 

Pat CMahohn of Birmingham. Pat 

•Urted playing golf at Brother Rice 

High School, graduated ta 1982 and 

Pron»f*ly started playfa« golf for 

Florida Southern. 

I met him at Treetopa, the course 

designed by Robert Trent Jooes Sr. 

at Sylvan Reaort near Gayiord I

straight down a steep hill of grass to 

the green and hit a ball that disappeared 

across the treetopa. never to 

be seen again. Pat was working at 

Treetops, training with pro Rick 

Driving across southern Ontario into New York 

State gave the children more new areas to color in 

their maps of places they've been. Now that Neil was 

2Vi, and we'd worn off a bit of tbe novelty of motel 

rooms, the four of us checked into one motel room 

along the highway that leads to the town of Niagara 

Falls, Ontario.

bed On the water bed, Hilary showed Neil how to 

create great swells that would rival the famous 

scenery Neil toddled over to the other bed and 

threw himself oo it with a thud "This one s not 

working." be said. 

Even with this new experience in the room, we 

,000 went out to sightsee. With much walking, 

driving and bus riding from the beginning instead 

of any attempt at a nap at such an exciting time,

INSTILLING THE SPIRIT OF THE ROAD 

Between trips. Doreen and I looked for ways to 

build family interest in seeing new places From 

Ui map puzzles and placemats to pulling in distant 

radio stations and talking about the places 

they come from, as well as talking about other 

countries when tbey are mentioned on the news, 

we make a conscious effort to link ourselves to 

that big world out there The anticipation of future 

vacations grows from there 

So with this "training" in place, we felt ready 

this past summer to put it all together 

THE FIRST REAL VACATION 

The vacation we'd been building toward is a 

week or more on the road, wide-eyed at the different 

scenery on some days, stopping to see a Dart 

of America where people really live and work on 

others. This summer's drive through Pennsylvania, 

destination Washington D C., was the goal realized

World. 

backgrounded, know the futility of asking, "When 

will we get there?'" Hilary and Neil now look 

through maps and AAA travel books, as well as 

their own books as we drive. 

At one point, while Hilary tried to concentrate 

on a book we'd checked out on the Capital, Neil 

was babbling aloud about "his" mid-Atlanticstates 

book. "Neil, read to yourself," she implored 

"Hil. I am'" he explained. 

Snacks in the car and at rest areas help to pass 

the time, and so does a tape recorder in the back 

seat, a "companion" since those early 1-94 days. 

The first night, we stayed at a low cost chain 

motel on the outskirts of Pittsburgh and spent a 

few pleasant hours with relatives in tbe area. Tbe 

next day, it was on through tbe hills to Washington. 

There, we checked in to a $98 per night family 

package at Loews L'Enfant Plaza right in 

"Government Land " We could leave the car there 

and get around easily and with much excitement 

on the subway {'M' is for Metro) or by walking. A 

stroller for Neil turned out to be well worth the 

bother for all the carrying it saved us. 

Arrangements made in advance with the office 

of our Congressman William Broomfield were 

most helpful in our seeing the memorable institutions 

of the Capital, and with planning we could 

see the Bureau of Engraving and Printing visit 

the Library of Congress and Supreme Court, take 

a nap, go paddleboating on the Tidal Basin and 

see the Washington Monument in a typical day. 

The drive back from DC was not rushed and 

included another smooth motel night, but by the 

end. it was clear that one week was the right 

length for this vacation We were glad to be bome 

WESTWARD HO? 

We'll be pushing the vacation lengths in the 

years to come Hilary's angling to start coloring 

the maps west of the Mississippi and listening to 

radio stations whose call letters begin with K. Or 

it may be up into some less traveled parts of the 

Canada for the beginnings of "foreign" travel. 

We'll keep edging out. a step at a time and see 

where it leads.

The one day, no stay trip to Atlantic City 


It's easy to distinguish tbe novice 

gamblers on the one-day rendezvous 

from the hard core gamblers. It's not 

by the amount of money they lay out, 

but by the way they act, said Fred 

Pratt, a Tropworld supervisor 

"Once you watch you can tell the 

greed peas," be said. "When they 

come to tbe blackjack table not 

knowing what to do, I usually recommend 

they go to tbe slots where luck 

can help them out if they aren't familiar 

with the other games. Otherwise 

they get taken." 

Although gambling takes center 

stage for the daring, there are lots of 

other fun and cheap things to do during 

your day in Atlantic City. 

Sightseeing is exciting, especially 

with the new Taj Mahal Casino and 

Resort recently built by Donald 

Trump 

And there's plenty to look at and 

enjoy at Tropworld. Just beyond the 

Slot City Estates lies a section they 

call. "Slot City by the Sea" featuring 

a wall with four aquariums filled 

with tropical fish. 

On the other side is the Sandbar 

cocktail lounge which gives visitors 

the feeling of being at the water's 

edge

do in one day, but if you'll never 

have a dull moment.

Union drive affects many players 

A Chinese proverb has it that a 

journey of 3.000 miles begins with 

a single step. 

Tbe United Auto Workers has 

taken an initial stride in what could 

be a long march to organize and 

represent sales people, clerks and 

maintenance workers in the retail 

industry. 

That first step was a Hudson's 

store at the Westland Mall. 

A longer journey could be a 

rewarding one for tbe UAW with 

the potential of gaining thousands 

of dues-paying members in 19 

other Hudson's stores in the Midwest. 

For now. the UAW will attempt 

to organize all Hudson's stores in 

the metro Detroit area, said Ray 

Westfall, assistant director for Region 

IA. 

The union has met with employees 

who initiated the contact for 

representation. Westfall said. Dignity 

on the job was the focus of 

those meetings, he said. 

Westfall wouldn't speculate on 

when representation elections 

would be conducted or comment 

specifically on organizing strategy. 

He said there are no plans now to 

organize any retailer other than 

Hudson's. 

A possible weapon in the UAW's 

drive is a survey by the placement 

firm of Roth Young indicating that 

most retail employees in Michigan 

are in the lower half of the pay 

scale compared to counterparts 

around the country. 

BUT DAYTON Hudson may not 

be on the bubble by itself. 

The United Food & Commercial 

Workers Union, heartened by the 

UAW's success at the Westland 

Hudson's, is attempting to organize 

Sears stores in metro Detroit. 

William Pyant, organizing director 

for Local 876, said he's especially 

optimistic about success at 

two stores he declined to identify. 

He isn't sure when tbe union will 

petition for elections. 

Pyant also acknowledged the difficulty 

of organizing part-time em- 

ployees in the retail industry. 

"Most are going to school and it's 

not going to be their career." 

But there is precedent for success 

The UFCW has represented 

employees at a Highland Park 

Sears for at least 25 years. 

THERE ARE other players in 

the retail game besides management 

and employees. You have 

shareholders, who own a company, 

and customers, who ultimately

determine the success or failure of 

a business. 

Douglas Fraser. former UAW 

president and Chrysler Corp. direc- 

tor and now an instructor of labor 

studies at Wayne State University, 

sees everyone benefiting from a 

widespread unionization effort. 

"Overwhelmingly, people join 

unions because they have 

grievances." Fraser said. "I suppose 

one could start from the 

premise that there might be a 

great deal of unhappiness. 

"Now if people were more satisfied. 

they feel better, they may be 

more productive. A higher level of 

service results from a satisfied 

worker." 

Better service may please customers, 

result in more sales, and. 

in turn, please management and

Retail shoppers may be entering a changing atmosphere il union efforts to organize department stores such as Hudson's and 

Sears are successful. 

Outlook for retailers 

is rosy in this market 

By Oerald Frawley 

staff writer 

Slow growth, low vacancy, stable 

lease rates — like tbe rest of tbe 

economy, the retail market is slowing 

down, but retail experts are 

quick to say these factors reflect a 

healthy industry and don't foretell 

an Industry collapse. 

Although tbe national economy 

impacts the retail industry just as it 

affects tbe office and manufacturing 

industry, retailing is less influenced 

by economic ups and downs, according 

to Michael Lippitt of Landmark 

Commercial Real Estate Services in 

Birmingham. 

Retailing, he said, generally lags 

behind other parts of the economy, 

so even though this year's numbers 

are down, last year numbers were 

very good, Lippitt said. 

"I think we'll see stable, but 

slower growth." 

Construction is down, be said, bat 

most retail watchers anticipated tbe 

slowdown as southeast Michigan approaches 

a retail market suits We for 

Its population. 

Detroit is ooe of the largest retail 

bases in the country, Lippitt said, but 

national retailers have overlooked 

that fact. "The area's performance 

to a well kept secret — people do 

very well here." 

"The secret to out of the bag and 

the performance of those stores here 

to well known now," he said. Even so, 

southeast Michigan to still "under 

tenanted." 

"Most retailers," according to 

Kevin Oldum of tbe Southfield office 

of Coldwell Banker Commercial 

Real Estate Services, "are reporting 

good, if not fantastic, sales." 

ADDING TO THE stability 

brought on by good sales to the fact 

that lenders are demanding more assurance 

— ssually in the form of 

pre-leased space or major tenants — 

before making loans, he said. 

Oldum aid he doesn't think retail 

ft overbuilt y«t in southeast Michi 

gift, bat tight tending wtH choke ott 

the speculative development that 

was going on as late as IMt. 

J "We wen t be seeing l«.iM-. 

M.H0- or J0,0#6-squara-foot canters 

without a major tenant for a while," 

teufcl 

. $ 

'As far as the national average is 

concerned, we're low in our vacancy 

rates. We're really busy right now.' 

— Kevin Oldum 

Coldwell Banker 

According ts Landmark's 1990 retail 

market overview, retail square 

footage increased by more than 9 

percent from 1988 to 1989. By year 

end 19W. metro Detroit retail 

square footage is expected to increase 

by 7 percent. 

Tfce explosive growth in the latter 

part of the 1980s — fueled by a perception 

among national retailers 

that the area is still underserved and 

a pent-up demand for retail driving 

that perception — has resulted in 

nearly 44 million square feet of retail 

in metropolitan Detroit 

Of the 3 million square feet of retail 

space under construction in 

1990, Oakland County to leading the 

way. according to the report A veritable 

haven for retail construction 

during the past five years, an estimated 

1J million square feet to expected 

in 1990. 

WAYNE COUNTY retail construction 

in 1990 to a far second with 

631,000 square feet under way, the 

report states. Macomb County to expected 

to see an additional 543,000 

square feet by year end. 

Of note, Lippitt added, to a striking 

increase in retail space for 

Washtenaw County. Retail space to 

expected to Increase by more than 

It percent — from 1.4 million to 

nearly 4.1 million square feet — 

eclipsing growth rates in all other 

southeastern Michigan counties. 

Washtenaw County and Livingston 

County, which to also expected to 

boom in the IBM. still lags behind in 

total retail space, Lippitt said. Oakland 

County to expected to peak at 

more than 20 million square feet 

Wayne County at more than 14 million 

and Macomb County at more 

than 16 million. 

Lippitt ssid it Is doubtful the area 

will be seeing future snclossd mall 

strip malls with large, well 

I 

known anchors are expected to remain 

popular. 

ANOTHER FACTOR that indicates 

the retail market's health to its 

stable leasing activity and lease 

rates, Oldum of Coldwell Banker 

Commercial said. Vacancy rates, 

have actually decreased, falling 

from 7.6 percent in 1989 to 6.6 percent 

at tbe start of 1990. 

"Anything from 5 to 10 percent is 

considered healthy," Oldum said. 

"Anything higher would cause concern 

— anything lower and we 

would see retailers coming in to 

build more. 

"As far as the national average to 

concerned, we're low in our vacancy 

rates," Oldum said, adding be expects 

that to continue. "We're really 

busy right now." be continued. 

"We're working with four new retailers 

who want to enter this market 

now if tbey can find the space. 

"1 see a readjustment — a coming 

down to earth, but I doo't see any 

thing negative," be said. "Six percent 

vacancy to excellent. 

"With all the new development we 

saw in 1966 and 1969 and the vacancy 

rate to still dropping — that's saying 

something." he said. Six percent 

vacancy to just right for an area interested 

in modest development 

"II It drops to low single digits, 

you're going to see some heavy development" 

Oldum said. "It's like a 

hotel — if you see 86 percent (occupancy), 

you can bet someone will 

build ooe across the street. " 

As for leasing rates, Lippitt of 

Landmark real estate services said 

rates will remain stable despite low 

The slow growth ia floor spaes in 

metropolitan Detroit will be 

to keep competition healthy

shareholders, he said 

But other factors come into play. 

A union workforce generally 

commands higher wages and better 

benefits than non-union employees, 

Fraser said 

He cited a report from the U.S. 

Labor Dept. which indicated that 

union retail employees averaged 

$381 per week nationally in 1989 

compared to $270 for non-union 

workers. 

"There's no economic Santa 

Claus," Fraser said. "If there's a 

wage increase, it can be taken out 

of profits. If profits are so narrow, 

you may have to increase prices. 

Thirdly, and most common, you 

can increase productivity." 

TYPICALLY, declining employment 

results at businesses where 

unions are introduced, said Dean 

Gulis, director ol research for tbe 

brokerage firm of Roney & Co. 

Fraser's speculation on Dayton 

Hudson: The company could afford 

a moderate pay increase through 

existing profits. 

Corporate' officials wouldn't 

project what might happen in negotiations 

and to business in general 

if the UAW builds on its initial success 

The company has challenged tbe 

UAW's nearly 100-vote margin of 

victory at the Westland store. 

"We don't comment on speculation." 

said Sue Sorensen, public relations 

director for Dayton Hudson 

Department Stores. "We don't talk 

about what if or what might be. We 

talk about what is. 

"Service is the ultimate judgment 

consumers are basing choices 

on." she said. "What determines 

good service are retailers who provide 

employees the freedom they 

need to provide that level of service. 

"WE DONT feel there's a need 

for third-party (union) input. We 

feel they're better off if they deal 

directly with management."

4C* O&E Thursday. June 2fl, 1990 

Longer days, warm temps spur nature's mating cycle 

days provide the 

stimulus which promotes reproductive 

activities is msny animate and 

plants. It is their cue to begin courtship 

and to complete the process of 

procreation before the food supply 

and warm tempers tares are gone. 

Many groups of antm*i« are egg 

layers, and as one walks through for- 

ests and meadows their reproductive 

efforts can be observed. Birds Bitting 

on their nest of eggs, toad eggs extending 

in a long single chain under 

shallow water, or bloegill preparing 

a shallow nest depression along the 

slwjeôfajtke or pond. 

One group of animals that we often 

think of in a lake or stream is the 

turtles. But they must all come to 

land in order to lay their eggs. This 

season 1 have become aware of several 

turtles traversing land in search 

of suitable nesting areas. 

Most turtles in Michigan are 

aquatic in nature and are seldom 

seen on land unless they are looking 

for a nest site. Wood turtles and box 

turtles are the two exceptions. Tbey 

tend to be more terrestrial than 

aquatic. Though on warm days you 

can find them soaking in shallow water. 

So when I found two painted turtles 

marching across the meadow, 1 

knew what they were doing. Tbey 

were looking for a sandy area in 

TIM NOWICKI/lllustration 

A painted turtle marches across the meadow after depositing eggs in a sandy area. Small turtles will dig shallow holes and lay 

fewer eggs than larger, older adults.

which to dig a bole so they could deposit 

their 15 or fewer eggs. Small 

turtles will dig shallow boles and lay 

fewer eggs than larger, older adults. 

Once tbe eggs are laid, tbe female 

has completed her maternal duties 

for this reproductive cycle which began 

in early spring After emerging 

from winter hibernation, she wai 

courted by a male painted turtle 

While in the water tbe male will position 

himself in front of tbe female 

and face her all tbe time. 

He may have to swim backwards 

or forwards in order to stay close 

enough to gently stroke her cheeks 

with his very long claws. If the 

female is "impressed," mating occurs 

andnn a short time egg production 

begins. 

Females try to find a safe place in

Changes 

Summertime, and worship services are informal 

It's summertime, the living is 

easy and going to church may not 

be the first Uung on people s minds. 

"It does drop a little bit," the 

Rev. Gareth Baker said of 

summertime church attendance. 

"Many people are away on vacation." 

Baker's the pastor at the Garden 

City Presbyterian Church. During 

the summer, worshipers, at his 

church hold one service at 10 a.m. 

each Sunday. They hold two Sunday 

morning services during the rest of 

the year. 

That's a common practice at 

many churches, and means that 

church pews are more likely to be 

full come Sunday morning. At 

some churches, summertime worship 

tends to be more informal 

than is true during the rest of the 

year 

' "We try to change it a little bit 

during the summer," said Eric 

Moore, pastor of the Canton Community 

Church, which meets at 

Field Elementary School in Canton. 

THIS PAST Sunday, worshipers 

at Moore's church were encouraged 

to wear casual clothing, "just 

to make it a little different, a little 

more relaxed." 

After church, worshipers enjoyed 

a picnic lunch at tbe Toledo Zoo. 

At Moore's church, just one service 

is held throughout tbe year and tbe 

time of worship, 10 a.m., isn't 

changed for tbe summer. 

Moore likes to see people attend 

church whenever possible, but 

knows worshipers need a break 

from routine. He's not particularly 

bothered by an occasional summertime 

absence. 

"I would not be as judgmental. 

It's not like tbey're taking a vacation 

from God." 

An 8:30 a.m. Sunday service was 

recently established at the First 

Baptist Church of Plymouth, giving 

worshipers a chance to go to 

church and still have much of the 

day available for picnics or other 

recreational activities. 

"People go to their cottages, I 

think They do spend time at the 

lake," said the Rev. Tucker Gunneman, 

associate pastor at the Plymouth 

church. Some people work six 

days a week in tbe summer, leaving 

Sunday as their only free day. 

The service at 8:30 a.m. will con- 

tinue each Sunday through Labor 

Day weekend, and has been wellreceived, 

Gunneman said. The service 

lasts about 45 minutes and 

tends to be more informal than 

other services, 

GUN-NEMAN'S CHURCH continues 

to hold a regular 11 a.m. service 

each Sunday in the summer 

Sunday school is held at 9:40 a.m.. 

with a time of fellowship on both 

sides of Sunday school. 

Even the regular 11 a.m service 

a l his church tends to be more informal 

in tbe summer, Gunneman 

said. Church leaders don't care if 

worshipers show up dressed for a 

picnic. 

"We're just glad they're there," 

he said. "We don't care what they 

look like.'" 

Baker, pastor at the Garden City 

Presbyterian Church, knows many 

worshipers continue to go to church 

in the summer. Man£ attend services 

while on vacation, and bring 

those church bulletins back to 

share with others. 

Baker recalled attending a service 

at a Mackinaw City Presbyterian 

Methodist church. The layman 

leading that service asked the 

regular church members to identi- 

Mentally ill deserve 

care and compassion 

A recent news report advised that 

Michigan's convicted criminals enjoy 

a better quality of life than Michigan's 

mentally ill. 

For criminals, the state provides 

computer-equipped classrooms, libraries 

and a wide range of sports 

and recreational activities. 

For mental hospital patients, tbe 

state has worn-out furniture, century-old 

buildings and ill-equipped recreation 

centers. 

Michigan has a troubled mental 

health system which seems to be 

moving backward. Three of its six 

state hospitals (Ypsilanti, Northville 

ahd Kalamazoo) have been under investigation 

by the U.S. Department 

d Justice for depriving patients of 

Cfceir civil rights. And the fourth, 

Qlinton Valley, is also under court 

order. 

' Nearly every dollar the 

state spends on capital 

improvement is going 

into prisons, and 

almost every new 

employee hired by the 

state is assigned to the 

Corrections 

Department.

ASSEMBLIES OF COD 

moral perspectives 

Rabbi Irwin 

Groner 

A Department of Mental Health 

Task Force was asked to study hospital 

problems and to present recommendations 

in 1988. The problems 

are well known and include 

overcrowding, insufficient staff, and 

many years of neglect 

IT LS IRONIC to compare the resources 

devoted to penal facilities 

and those provided for mental hospitals 

serving Michigan's non-criminal 

population. A J900 million expansion 

program will more than triple the 

number of state prisons by 1992. 

Nearly every dollar the state 

spends on capital improvement is 

going into prisons, and almost every 

new employee hired by the state is 

assigned to the Corrections Department. 

Meanwhile, all other state departments 

— including mental health — 

are under a hiring freeze and must 

keep their budgets tight to provide 

the money needed to staff and operate 

the new prisons and to pay for 

court-ordered programs to serve

RECYCLING GOOD 

Overcrowded landfills. Garbage 

barges no one wants to deal with. 

Terminal trash. 

News. 

Bad news. 

The good news? More and more 

people, businesses and industries are 

finding ways to recycle. 

It takes more than 6,000 tons of 

newsprirft each year to print The 

Observer & Eccentric Newspapers 

plus a number of other publications, 

so we're doing a number of things to 

help the solid waste situation: 

1. For years we've sold our waste 

newsprint to a recycling firm. 

2. 25% of the newsprint we print on 

is recycled and we're increasing this 

amount by another 25% this year. 

We don't cover world news, 

but we care about the world. 

The Observer & Eccentric Newspapers 

3. Our employees have begun to 

routinely put officer paper (memos, 

computer paper, waste copy paper) in 

recycle bins instead of waste baskets. 

Of course, we still deliver thousands 

of newspapers twice each week. It's 

our business to bring you news of your 

local government, schools, sports scene 

and community events; the news you 

need to know. 

And when you're finished reading 

your hometown newspaper there are 

places that will recycle them. 

We've listed a few for you on this 

page because we think recycling is

Susan Ferko maneuvers for a layup Saturday in 

the Michigan-Ohio all-star basketball game at 

the Palace. Ferko, the former Plymouth Canton 

JOHN STORMZAND/ctaff photographer 

star, scored 11 points in Michigan's 78-77 victory. 

Ferko contributes 

j, 

to Michigan victory 

By Mike Rosenbaum 

staff writer 

Peggy Evans put the exclamation 

point on her high school basketball 

career Saturday when she layed in 

the winning points of the fourth annual 

Michigan-Ohio All-Star Classic 

with 2.9 seconds left. The basket 

gave Michigan a 78-77 victory in the 

contest played at the Palace of Auburn 

Hills. 

Evans and her teammates — including 

Sue Ferko of Plymouth Canton 

High School and Livonia native 

Shawn Bannon of Dearborn Divine 

Child — lost the opener of the twogame 

series. 85-82, in Toledo on Friday. 

Michigan, which lost a big lead 

late in the first game, repeated the 

pattern Saturday. After trailing by 

as many as 11 points in the first half, 

Michigan rolled to a 75-66 lead 

2:10 left. Three straight Ohio baskets, 

including a three-pointer, 

trimmed the margin to two points 

with 1:00 remaining. 

Bannon then hit one of two free 

throws for a 76-73 lead with 50.9 seconds 

left Ohio scored with 34 sec- 

onds left, stole the ball in the 

back court and scored again with 9.9 

seconds left for a 77-76 lead, and, 

"seemingly, a repeat of Friday's 

come-from-behind victory. 

After a timeout, Michigan inbounded 

in the backcourt to Char Oesterling, 

who hit Evans with a long 

pass, all alone under tbe Ohio basket. 

Though faced with an easy layup, the 

former Country Day star said she 

was "kind of nervous. I was thinking 

'( Susan Ferko) played 

extremely well. When 

she was in there the 

offense ran more 

smoothly, because she 

does such a great job 

of setting people up.' 

— Mary Lillie-Ciccerone 

Michigan all-star coach 

that the girl was going to foul me 

and I'd miss" a free throw But Evans 

released her shot before she 

could be fouled, giving Michigan the 

victory. 

EVANS FINISHED with 19 points 

Ferko scored 11 and Bannon 7. 

Michigan coach Mary Lillie-Ciccerone. 

from Birmingham Marian, 

said Michigan played better in game 

one in Ohio, despite the loss. After 

that one-point defeat, however, "we 

wanted the victory here tonight," she 

said. 

Of Evans, Michigan's Miss Basketball, 

Lillie-Ciccerone said, "She's 

just a gem. Great attitude. She's just 

a hard worker. She's going to do extremely 

well in college It was fun 

working with her." 

Evans, who will attend the University 

of Tennessee, enjoyed the 

All-Star experience. 

"We got to know all the people 

we've been reading about in the paper 

. . That's a good way to let the 

All-Stars get to know each other as 

people," she said. 

Ferko, said Lillie-Ciccerone, 

"surprised the heck out of me, we 

call her a gamer," because Ferko, 

who will attend the University of Miami 

(Ohio), practiced poorly but 

stood out in the two games "She 

played extremely well. When she 

was in there the offense ran more 

smoothly because she does such a 

great job of setting people up." 

Bannon. a scoring guard at Divine 

Child, played point guard for the All- 

Stars. "She's going to be a great little 

point guard in college." said Lillie-Ciccerone. 

NANCY SULLIVAN, Bannon's 

high school coach, agreed that Bannon 

will be a good point guard at 

Central Michigan University. 

"Her role's going to change in college. 

I think she's made tremendous 

improvement in leadership on the 

court and ball handling and setting 

up her teammates." said Sullivan 

"Her scoring skills won't go away 

but she's going to have to add to her 

game " 

Bannon scored 11 points in Friday's 

game, Evans had 10 plus 11 rebounds, 

and Ferko finished with seven 

points and six rebounds. 

"All-Star week" began for Michigan's 

top girl roundballers on June 

19, with the East-West All-Star 

games in Battle Creek Evans and 

Ferko played for the victorious Class 

A East squad, coached by Lillie-Ciccerone. 

Marian's Hazel Olden was 

the game's MVP Bannon played for 

the East team in the Class B/C/D 

contest. 

Lally captures junior middleweight title 

By CJ. Rissk 

staff writer 

Tbe dream that has kept Brett Lally going 

for the last 10 years was fulfilled Monday 

night in Atlantic City. 

Lally, a former Plymouth resident now 

living in South Lyon, stunned favored Robert 

Hines of Philadelphia with a fourthround 

technical knockout to capture the vacant 

North American Boxing Federation 

junior middleweight (154 pounds) title. 

The win improved Lally's overall record 

to 26-5 with 16 KOs; he is 8-1 since moving 

up to the junior middleweight class, his only 

loss coming against Donald Curry on a second-round 

knockout last December. 

"He's been fighting for 10 years, and to 

finally get a title ... it was so sweet," said 

Brett's brother and manager, Bradd. 

According to Bradd, Brett dominated the 

action after the opening round. In the fourth, 

he trapped Hines on tbe ropes with savage 

body punches that eventually led to referee 

Rudy Battle halting the bout. The loss was 

Hines' third in 30 fights, with two draws.

facing three Eastern Michigan University 

baseball players. 

But summer vacation in San Bernadino, 

Calif., gets a unanimous 

"thumbs up" vote from Doug Martin 

(Redford Catholic Central High), 

Mike Hammootree (Westland John 

Glenn) and Steve Waite (Plymouth 

Canton High). 

The three booked up with the San 

Bernadlno Indians, who ride atop the 

standings with a 10-2 record In tbe 

Jim Lefebvre West Coast semi-prc 

circuit. 

And if this trio continues to play 

an instrumental role in tbe team's 

success, the Indians will gain an automatic 

berth into the National 

Baseball Congress tournament later 

this summer in Wichita, Kan. 

Indians general manager Don Di 

Carlo, formerly tbe bead coach at 

University of California-Riverside 

recruited the three EMU players after 

the Hnrons made a spring trip to 

Fresno DiCarlo made arrangemenU 

through Huron coach Roger Coryell 

to bring tbe three out west (They are 

the only Michigan players on the 

•quad.) 

MARTIN, a right-handed pitcher 

named to tbe All-Mid-American Conference 

team (*4 record, 3 00 

earned run average) this season, is 

off to a 1-0 start- 

He played last summer ia the 

Cape Cod Lsagae (for collegiate 

players) and has adapted nicely to 

"It's a 

we're to base fan," said the 

baseball 

Northville native. "It's nice out here, 

but crowded. Tbe weather has been 

nice, but the last couple of days it's 

been really hot, over 100 degrees." 

The Indians, based 60 miles south 

of Los Angeles, play a 40-game 

schedule, five to six games per week 

with doable-headers on Saturday and 

Sunday. 

Waite, an All-MAC choice at third 

base, has been pitching and playing 

shortstop. He is hitting .390 and has 

ooe win and one save. 

"I've had a good time, I've been 

able to see a lot of California," said 

Waite, who batted .3*3 at EMU. 

"Last summer I played In the Great 

Lakes (Wooden Bat) League, bat this 

time I wanted to try something different 

It hasn't been too bad (tbe 

weather) the last couple of days because 

it's not as humid." 

Waite enjoys lounging around the 

pool outside his apartment and plans 

to spend time at tbe beach leaning 

to surf 

"The team I feel we have Is tbe 

best in the league." he said. "There's 

a lot of competition, a lot of ex-pro 

players." 

HAMMONTREE, a catcher, is off 

to a roaring start, hitting M0 (I for 

15). After spot doty with tbe Huroos 

during his junior year when hit 155 

primarily as aa outfielder. Hammootree 

is back behind tbe plate and 

enjoying every minute of it 

"Because ot the number of doableheaders 

we play, I catch every other 

"Even I was shocked," said Bradd. "But 

Brett pummelled him from tbe opening bell. 

At the end of the fight, (Brett) didn't have a 

nick on him. 

"PEOPLE WERE saying (Hines) was too 

tough for him, he was too tall for him, that 

he was going to beat Brett up. But I think 

after the first round or so, (Hines) figured, 

'This guy can't keep punching like this.'" 

Brett did, and it earned him the title he 

has sought for so long. He also collected his 

biggest purse to date, but Bradd figures that 

game." he said. "I couldn't catch 

every game anyway because it's 

very warm during the day. 

"But it doesn't matter where I 

play, I Just want to play. Tbe competition 

is as good as the MAC. And it's 

a great location, on the edge of the 

mountains, very scenic." 

Unlike Martin and Waite, who 

flew by plane to California, Hammootree 

loaded up his car and made 

tbe made the 2Vfc-day trip. 

Having his own transportation, 

Hammootree was able to take a job 

delivering pizzas for Dominos. (Martin 

and Waite are working a baseball 

camp this week.) 

'It's different out here, more expensive, 

but they pay pretty good 

($10 per hour) and the tips are 

great" Hammootree said. 'The 

highways are totally different We 

have only three lanes on our express 

ways, hat they have five or six. And 

nobody follows the (55 MPH) speed 

limit Everybody Is just cutting in an 

out" 

I 

THE THREE will share an apartment 

during the season with firstmonth's 

rent provided by DiCarlo. 

Tbe players travel by team baa, 

hitting several diamoods around tbe 

vast Los Angeles metropolitan area. 

The Indians recently played a game 

on the UCLA campus i la Westwc 

Unless signed to a prof—tonal 

contract tha three area players plan 

to return for their senior seasons at 

EMU 

There seams to ba a lot 

scoots around here than hack! 

Hammootree said. "Unless some 

thing happens, HI win be hack at 

Eastern, but right now there's no 

place Td rather be. They treat as 

weU. They jast let you go oat aad 

play." 

will change in the very near future — when 

some big-money bouts start coming his way. 

Several possibilities exist for Lally. Bradd 

would like a shot at a world title next. "If 

Brett fights (the way be did against Hines), 

he'll beat anybody," Bradd said. And now 

that Brett has a belt, his negotiating position 

is vastly improved. 

Bradd would like his brother, nicknamed 

the Irish Hawk, to face either World Boxing 

Association champion Julian Jackson or the 

winner of next week's Darren Van Horn- 

Gianfranco Rossi bout. Rossi holds the International 

Boxing Federation crown. 

V 

C L A S S I C 

Indianwood 

However, Jackson has had trouble making 

the 154 weight limit, and a fight against the 

Van Horn-Rossi winner may not come off 

for months. 

Another option would be World Boxing 

Federation titleholder Terry Norris, but as 

Bradd said, "Out of the three, Brett would 

have the most trouble with Norris. I would 

put Brett in against Van Horn or Rossi or 

Jackson in a minute." 

Nothing will be decided for a few weeks, 

anyway, which will give Brett plenty of time 

to enjoy his new standing and title.

header to Walter's at Ford Field, 5-4 and 9-7, and 

Holzer Ford won a pair of 5-4 games from Total 

Travel Values at Orchard Lake St. Mary 

In the first game, Caesars outhit Walter's 7-2 

but, though both teams made three errors, Cae- 

sars' were more costly. 

With the score tied 3; 3 in tbe fourth inning. Ken 

Dropiewski and Gene Boyce scored the go-ahead 

and eventual winning runs on a walk and two er- 

rors. 

Gerald Davis' sacrifice fly cut the difference to

teams exchanged three-run shots with Jim Mil- 

ler's double clearing the bases for Caesars and 

Jason Gabel blasting a home run for Walter's. 

DAVID HOUGHTBY pitched 5 Mi innings for the 

victory, striking out eight and walking five. Chad 

Wrona finished up. Rich Roy went the distance for 

Caesars 

In the nightcap, Walter's rallied from a 7-3 defi- 

cit in the top of the seventh inning and held Cae- 

sars scoreless in the bottom half to achieve the 

sweep 

baseball 

Boyce's three-run double was the big blow in 

the six-run seventh, Jeff Pendell drove in one run 

with a two-base hit and Gabel and John Gotts had 

RBI singles. Boyce had two hits and five RBI in 

the game. 

Bob Bullach of Farmington Hills, a redstart 

pitcher at Michigan State, worked two innings in 

relief and got the win. Steve Owens pitched four 

innings and Wrona ooe. 

Jim Miller was the losing pitcher. R5y had two 

hits for Caesars, which outhit Walter's again 11- 

10.

seventh inning of each game with Total Travel. 

WITH THE SCORE tied 4-4 in the top of the 

seventh, Derek Osborne dropped a two-out double 

down the right-field line to drive in the winning 

run in the first game.

on two hits, two walks and a hit batsman to take a 

4-1 lead. Osborne had three hits and two RBI.

pitching the last 1 innings. 

In the second game. Total Travel tied the score 

4-4 with a run in the top of the seventh when Tan- 

guay followed singles by Dave Schmaltz and Mike 

Mackie with a sacrifice fly. 

Holzer Ford came back with the winning run in 

the bottom of the inning when Total Travel com- 

mitted an error on Izzo's grounder to short. Total 

Travel outhit Holzer Ford 11-3 but made four er- 

rors. 

Steve Ross went the distance for Holzer Ford, 

striking out five and walking the same. Craig 

Murray pitched 6*» innings officially for Total 

Travel and deserved a better fate, according to 

coach Rich Rachner While tossing a three-hitter. 

Murray walked three and struck out four. 

Julian and Rob MacDonald had two hits apiece 

for Total Travel, and Lichtman added an RBI 

double Tim Ulrich's two-run double was the key

¥ exercising options 

Myrna 

Partrich 

Even pro bowlers need advice 

Thursday. June 28. 1990 O&E (P.CJSO 

Husband not interested 

in wife's exercise habits 

Dear Myrna: My kasband Is giving me a kard time. He's a worfcaboUc; 

I am aa exerciser. He hates to exercise; I am a housewife. I like to 

spead time takiag exercise classes, rmaoing or eve* speed waikiag on 

a aice day. We do have loU of interests that we share together. My 

problem is that exercise is a big part of my life, aad I would like to 

share it with my kasbaad. He does not want to get into shape. He 

often walks tbe dog. bat I have a feeling it's to get oat of the hoase, 

not for the exercise. He alto dislikes the amoaat of time I spend 

exercising. I could use some advice. Things aren't going great. 

Well, this is a bit mental as well as physical. It is hard to complete- 

ly analyze your problem without knowing you both. However. I can 

make some general suggestions 

You obviously love your husband and want to share more with him. 

You are thinking life would be better if you could spend more time 

going to classes, running or walking together. 

First of all. I think you have to accept the fact that exercise may 

never be on top of his list of things to do. and go from there. We 

sometimes tend to kill the interest of our mate by expecting too 

much. 

Why not start with a scheduled weekend walk (moderately fast 

pace) and bring tbe dog. if necessary. We know be already likes to 

walk the dog. Gradually, increase this walk to three times a week. 

Have a casual attitude about it — not like work. It is important to 

engage in physical activity that your husband enjoys and not just 

workouts you think are good for him. Keep in mind — be might be 

turned off by the thought of actually 'working out. Use this precious 

time together as good conversation time and enjoy. 

Now the answer starts to get a little psychological. Here we go. 

Let your husband know he's very important in your life. He might 

fear that you don't have the same enthusiasm for him as you do for 

your exercise classes. He may not be threatened by the actual activi- 

ty. but by tbe fact he feels replaced. Make him understand that you 

are not willing to give up exercise, but you are willing to try to give 

him more time and attention 

How much time do you spend exercising away from your husband 

when you could be together? 

Remember that time balance. If most of your free time is spent 

working out, your exercise addiction (word is loosely used) may be 

driving your husband out the door with his dog walking. 

Something you must know — there are lots of people who really 

don't want to exert themselves, especially if they are overweight. He 

also may be worried-he can't be successful in a class format or for 

certain running If he is a workaholic, chances are he is successful at 

work and would not be happy with an unsuccessful physical activity. 

Do you share in his interests? Does he like to share his work se- 

crets? Like I suggested, walking briskly with good conversation can 

bring lots of togetherness. By the way, unless your dog is very well 

trained, be will slow down your walking pace. 

Exercise can still be important to you but try to arrange more free 

time with your husband. He will eventually get around to exercising 

— I believe most people will. Wait until he goes to his doctor with 

these extra pounds and workaholic stress — the doctor will convince 

him. 

Relax about your exercise activity — just fit it into your daily 

routine and enjoy your family. Your husband's future exercise habit 

probably will fall into place on its own.

BOWLING, TENNIS AND goii. 

along with certain other 

sports, all have the common 

factor in which participants 

can get some instruction and be able to 

improve their game 

Fortunately for bowlers, there are 

plenty of very fine professional instruc- 

tors around who are available to work 

with the bowler to improve his ber game 

at a relatively nominal cost 

If you are already a good bowler, you 

might think twice about taking lessons It 

is a fact that even the big name profes- 

sionals still receive a lot of belp from 

their coaches and instructors 

In bowling, it is difficult to see yourself 

bowl, therefore, a knowledgeable observ- 

er can pick out the faults and show bow 

to make the necessary corrections. Now 

that summer is here, this is the ideal time 

to get lessons if you are ambitious enough 

to seek personal improvement The bowl- 

ing centers have plenty of open lanes 

available at summer rates

bowling instructors out there that should 

be mentioned If I have missed someone,

OCC pins cage hopes on transfers 

By C J. Risak 

.staff writer 

Only four players — including two 

starters — return with appreciable 

amounts of playing time for Oakland 

Community College's men's basket- 

ball team. 

But that doesn't mean the Raiders 

will be lacking experience 

Among those coach Lynn Reed, 

who guided OCC to a 23-8 mark last 

season, has picked up for next season 

are seven players who performed at 

other colleges and who will have 

sophomore eligibility in the upcom- 

ing campaign. 

"I think the nucleus is there for a 

very good team." said Reed, whose 

1989-90 team was ranked as high as 

fourth in the National Junior College 

Athletic Association Division II. "I 

don't do this(usually, but we do have 

a lot (of transfers). Most of them I 

recruited earlier, but they decided to 

go to other schools." 

While a few of Reed's newcomers 

appear to be can't-miss types, all 

have potential. And in the fast-paced 

style the OCC coach lives by. nine or 

10 could get significant playing time.

a game for the Falcons "Bill is an 

outstanding prospect. ' said Reed. 

"He is very versatile, mobile and a 

hard worker He'll fit into our press-

Bell is "an awesome rebounder," 

said Reed. "He'll be a good one." But 

the one to watch, according to the 

OCC coach, is Reviere. "He has awe- 

some talent. He's quick and smooth, 

one of the most talented players I've 

ever had — a Michael Jordan-type "

Melinda Pacha creates clever set for JET drama 

By Cethie BreMenbech 


ON THE SET of "Slow Dance 

on the Killing Ground," 

cigarette butts lay scattered 

under the pay phone, 

factory grime coats tbe windows of 

the little Brooklyn store, and EH via 

stares from a record jacket in the 

jukebox. 

Minute attention to multiple details 

recreates the aura of time and 

place — 1962 in a run-down factory 

district of Brooklyn — for the drama 

playing through Sunday at the Jewish 

Ensemble Theatre in West 

Bloomfield. 

Scenic designer Melinda Pacha 

(pronounced Pay-shah) created the 

set for William Hanley's "Slow 

Dance." She describes ber detailed 

style as "suggestive realism" — realistic 

because she strives for the 

truth that comes from accurate detail 

such as making certain the Marlboro 

Reds and Mars bars in the 

store's showcase really were sold in 

the early '60s and that the toaster 

and radio are of appropriate vintage 

— suggestive because, "Surfaces are 

painted and they look painted," and 

because the set partially lacks walls 

and ceilings. 

Her sets are realistic but leave 

room for imagination, an essential 

part of the magic of theater. Audiences 

know the drama and set are 

pretend, yet they believe at tbe same 

time in their truth and reality. 

PACHA EXPLAINS how a set 

works before the action even begins. 

"When people walk into the theater 

before the show and see the set. it 

shold create a sense of anticipation, 

make them wonder 'Who lives in this 

space?" I envision audience members 

having time to slowly absorb 

the visoal, to move into the mood, 

atmosphere and tone of the set." 

Pacha, a tenured professor at the 

Univwsity of Detroit, begins ber 

10th season as resident scenic and 

costume designer for the university's 

Theatre Company. She also designs 

free lance for other theaters including 

the Attic Theatre, Lansing's 

Boarsbead Theatre and the new Jewish 

Ensemble Theatre. 

A good set like the one she designed 

for JET goes beyound time 

and place to reflect the character of 

the people who live there. In the 

three-character play, "Slow Dance," 

the store and its adjacent living 

quarters belong to Glas, a German 

refugee as haunted by what he did 

during World War II as by what he 

failed to do. 

Pacha says, "The work of a designer 

is to try to dig through the 

script to find what will lead to making 

decisions to underline the spoken 

words. The space is an outward man-

Mitch Miller, 

U.S. share * 

a birthday 

By Cortnne Abatt 

staff writer 

No, positively — there's nothing 

Mitch Miller would rather be doing 

on his birthday than conducting the 

Detroit Symphony Orchestra. And 

that's exactly where he'll be on the 

Fourth of July, the day be turns-79 

— on the podium at Meadow 

Brook, conducting the DSO in a 

concert of American favorites with 

cannons going full blast for the 

1812 Over* 

"Being in music makes you very 

privileged," he said with a smile in 

his voice, "because you work at 

what you love." He said being a 

music maker is completely different 

from, for instance, being an automotive 

executive who wants to 

retire so he can play golf. There's 

nothing Miller would rather do 

than what he's doing now. 

And in music, he's done it all. 

He's been called the greatest hitmaker 

this country has ever seen. 

He was considered one of the finest

you very privileged 

because you work at 

what you love.'

He toured with a symphony or-

Art co-op opens 

in Ann Arbor 

By Jill Hamilton 

Rene LaMar doesn't' underestimate 

tbe power of hard work, a bit 

of creative thinking and a little belp 

from some corporate friends. 

"I see other artists' groups 

screaming for grants and complaining 

that there is no art in public 

places," said LeMar, founder of the 

Ann Arbor Artist's Co-op. "We go to 

businesses, point to a blank wall and, 

bingo, you have work displayed." 

LaMar has combined a savvy business 

sense with the delicate creative 

process of art and is not only getting 

his artists' works shown but is also 

managing to sell a few pieces along 

the way 

He thinks it's time to forget the 

stereotype of the starving artist — 

he has a better plan. It has to do with 

his uncanny knack for understanding 

the concepts of capitalistic society. 

"For a group of artists, we're pretty 

professional here," said LeMar, 

standing in one of the tangible results 

of this philosophy — the airy 

studio that serves as the co-op's 

headquarters. 

On a long work table in front of 

the large windows overlooking a 

street, a young man works diligently 

at carving grooves into a chunk of 

wood. A young woman gazes intently 

at tbe smooth white ceramic piece 

on which she is working. 

LeMar managed to get a few free 

months of occupancy in the studio 

from tbe company that owns the 

building in exchange for fixing up 

the place. Co-op members built several 

private studios in the building, 

which are rented to other artists. 

The income from those studios pays 

the rent for the entire building. 

"ITS A RECYCLABLE program, 

everything keeps paying for Itself," 

LeMar sakl. The income from selling 

a piece of work goes into buying 

more art supplies which. In turn, allows 

more work to be created. 

LeMar steps in front of ooe of tbe 

groups' ongoing projects — a mural 

going up tbe front stairwell of tbe 

studio. Tbe mural is filled with big 

yellow suns, blue dolphins, red 

mouths, televisions, happy facea, 

mermaids and skeletons. 

"It's'not finished, LeMar said. 

"It's just a way for us to learn to 

work together. We're all doing our 

own thing. There's no restrictions on 

eolor. size or subject matter " 

LeMar!* talent for 

has belpedthe co-op per 

remarkable feata. Wfcaj began as a 

tiny group of friends lqj>king for 

ways to display their art BOW has 

more than IM members. 

The co-op offers free communal 

members caa work 24 

a day. They provide free art 

like a typesetter, kiln and 

airbrush. Members can get assistance 

in everything from solving 

their framing problems to finding 

the right photographer Workshops 

are available on a variety of subjects, 

including cutting-edge jewelry 

making and the art of silk screening 

a T-shirt. Co-op members even get 

discounts on art supplies at area 

stores. Tbe cost of membership is 

910 a year. 

"We try to help artists with the little 

details tbey run into," said 

LeMar. 

One of these little details is how to 

get work shown in a town glutted 

with artists. 

"THE GALLERIES AROUND 

here have a Don't call us, well call 

you' attitude toward local artists," 

said LeMar. "Some take 40 percent 

of the sales." 

LeMar responded to this by creating 

the "roving gallery." He asked 

local stores if they would be interested 

in exhibiting some of the co-op's 

art. 

The proposition was a success, 

since it benefitted both parties — tbe 

store owners got free art for their 

businesses and the artist got prime 

exhibition space. 

Unlike area galleries, these businesses 

will often ask for little or no 

commission for showing the work. 

They're Just happy to have it around. 

Co-op members don't eschew 

earning money as somehow 

"unartistic" or "selling out," nor are 

tbey motivated by greed. Money is 

simply a way to do what they want 

to do — make art, get It displayed 

and maybe belp someone out along 

the way. 

"We're striving to give a lot back 

to the community ,?said LeMar. The 

co-op worked on plfns for Earth Day 

in conjunction with the Rainforest 

Action Movement The groups put 10 

percent of the Earth Day-generated 

monies toward saving the rain forests 

"I have this secret theory that art 

can save the planet," LeMar said 

sheepishly 

The co-op plans to continue to devote 

itself to discovering the needs 

of the artists, than finding ways to 

fulfill those needs. It may Install a 

color darkroom a 

panded, full-color] 

"I guarantee that In one year we 

will have more art displayed than 

any other group," said LeMar. 

Given the co-op's track 

tfcat may not be an onreelii 

diction. In April, lass than a year after 

LeMar started the organisation, 

the co-op celebrated the grand opening 

of its artist-owned gallery

altered recording methods, found 

new song writers and Columbia's 

sales soared. 

His introduction of "sing-along" 

albums met with instant success 

and sold more than 20 million copies. 

His TV program, "Sing Along 

with Mitch" took the country by 

storm and ran for 3 Vi years. 

As a conductor with a mixed bag 

format of symphonic, popular and 

sing-along works, he has appeared 

with symphony orchestras from 

one end of the country to the other, 

is a frequent guest conductor in 

Canada and recently debuted in 

Mexico and Italy. 

He often runs on and off stage 

and conducts in an energetic, highly 

rhythmic style, punctuated by 

witty remarks to the audience between 

numbers. 

His recording of Gershwin's Concerto 

in F, American in Paris and 

Rhapsody in Blue with David 

Golub and the London Symphony 

Orchestra was rated by Time Mag- 

REAL ESTATE 

azine as the "Best of "88." 

So. what's left to accomplish? 

How do you top this kind of lifetime 

achievement? 

WELL, THERE LS one thing . 

"I'd like to have a major symphony 

orchestra with three or four rehearsals," 

he said as opposed to the 

the customary one which he normally 

gets. Sure, the musicians can 

play the notes, he said, "They could 

Mitch Miller 

(P.C,W,G)1E 

play without any rehearsal. That's 

not the point." It's the fine points 

he'd like to work on — the interpretation. 

"Not my imprint,." he 

said, "but to get into a mode where 

they are shown off to their best advantage." 

And if some musical genie granted 

that one wish to Miller, what

Not really leaving Michigan 

By Isabella Smith 


Jutta Czapski Herbig's bouse is a 

sprawling, multi-level contemporary, 

set on a hillside, surrounded 

by trees and flowers and — like its 

chatelaine — filled with light and 

beauty. 

Her life here, as the wife of former 

Detroit Symphony Orchestra 

music director Gunther Herbig, has 

been "exciting and full of surprises," 

but also (often) hectic and 

demanding as she lived with her 

husband through the orchestra's 

many trials and turmoils. 

Her husband's new move to the 

helm of the Toronto Symphony 

only enlarges the scope of her 

many activities. Gunther and Jutta 

Herbig will keep the American 

roots they developed in "this house 

for which, I searched so long," 

among "the warm, kind people of 

the Detroit area" who have become 

their friends. 

Czapski-Herbig's life has dimensions 

beyond those of devoted wife 

and ardent musical partner to her 

husband, however, although the 

former is a role she admittedly relishes 

A concert pianist (whose name, 

some musicians say, was once better 

known in Eastern Europe than 

was her husband's) and mother of 

two bright, successful, attractive 

young adults (Beate, a surgical resident 

in Germany, and Thomas, an 

astronomer at Cal Tech), Czapski- 

Herbig is admired for her special 

ability to handle the demanding 

roles of wife, mother and performing 

artist with serenity and grace. 

HER DARK EYES SPARKLED 

when she spoke of her children, but 

as she talked about her first meeting 

with Gunther Herbig in ber piano 

class at the Franz Liszt Academy 

in Weimar, she fairly glowed. 

"He was a truly fine pianist," she 

said, "but he loved conducting 

more." They were married shortly 

after receiving their diplomas and 

continued to live in Weimar, where 

be was appointed second Kapellmeister, 

before moving up and 

on to Potsdam, Dresden and then 

Berlin 

Asked about tbe abrupt hiatus in 

her performing career (which was 

centered in Communist-dominated 

Eastern Europe) caused by ber husband's 

departure from East Berlin 

to accept the Detroit post, her face 

became somber. 

"Yes, I had to begin again" she 

noted (as did her husband note, sadly, 

la one of his earliest Detroit interviews), 

"but we had decided that 

coming hare was the step to take 

and although It has been a slow 

procasi, I now have an American 

agent and my career Is picking 

•P" 

(She played to critical plaadlts 

recently In Toronto and will take

Jutta Czapski-Herbig maintains a delicate balance as wife of a conductor, mother and performinmg 

artist. 

part in a summer Concert Masters 

Series there with top Toronto orchestra 

musicians). 

As to the difficulties involved in 

her multiple roles she said, "It can 

be difficult at times - most frustrating 

when I don't feel I've handled 

each role to my best ability," 

adding that most of the time it is 

exciting. 

She was sitting at tbe German 

Steinway (one of two) in ber pleasant, 

airy practice room filled with 

music books, travel mementos, 

tasteful prints and pots of plants. 

She bent forward in a gesture of 

welcome, spread her long-fingered, 

expressive hands and said, "Although 

Gunther and I sometimes 

disagree in musical matters — how 

certain phrases should be played, 

for instance — our shared love of 

music sdds an extra dimension to 

our marriage. Sometimes we 

change the other's mind Sometimes 

we both change our opinions 

and reach a compromise, sometimes 

we don't But we truly respect 

the other's opinions and we 

enjoy sharing our Ideas with each 

other." 

WHEN QUERIED about the special 

joys or terrors of performing 

with her husband. Csapski-BsrMg 

smiled and hesitated (searching for 

the right English words) and said, 

"It Is a little of both." Than, seeming 

to fear that her light-hearted 

reply might be misunderstood, sbe 

added, "of course, it is a wooderful 

feeling of support to have ooe's 

husband conduct. . . we can talk 

about the music In advance, we can 

go over the measures together and 

arrive at a complete understanding 

and focus." Yet sbe paused, "Ooe 

always feels an extra responsibility 

to be perfect to not let the other 

down " 

One local musician wbo has 

played with Czapski-Herbig called 

her "a sensitive, dedicated musician 

wbo holds on to high standards. 

There is also a strong spiritual 

quality about ber — a quality 

that makes people want to be at 

their best." 

Another performer, s woman 

said, "Sbe Is s wooderful example 

to other women performers wbo 

want to fulfill themselves ss artists, 

wives and mothers." 

As a mother who wss also a performing 

artist Csapskl-Herbig said, 

"No, It wasn't always easy. When 

the children were young, my career 

was put on hold for awhile, because 

I wanted vary much to be a 

good mother, to be there for my 

children." 

AS THE CHILDREN became 

school-ace, she said aha "learned to 

practice la the morning after tbey 

i off to ciassss and in the evethey 

were la had," a 

to which aha still I 

"As they (the children) grew older," 

she said, "I arranged my bookings 

so that they could travel with 

me. I think It was enriching for 

them, and it was certainly satisfying 

for me," she said conceding 

that It was sometimes more difficult 

to be as singte-mindedly abtprbed 

in preparation as she would 

have desired. "It was, overall, a 

wooderful time for us." 

As to the world situation, she 

said, "We are all overjoyed by the 

recent opening of the botdeit between 

tbe two Germany*. We were 

in Germany recently and It was 

wooderful to witness the changes. 

Now we can see friends that we 

thought (six years ago) that we 

might never see again. Pertapa, 

before long, we can even visit — 

and they can visit us." 

However, the former East Berliner 

cautioned, there are still 

many problems to be worked out

'Mother Earth,' long on detail, fails to entertain 

"Mother Earth Father Sky" by Sue 

Harriaon (JO9 pp., Doubleday, 

$19.95) 

See Harrison's publisher. Doubleday, 

has shelled out a whopping 

$100,000 to promote her first book, 

"Mother Earth Father Sky," now in 

bookstores. 

The novel has received a first 

printing of 100,000 copies, almost 

unheard of these days when it comes 

to first novels. It's been chosen as a 

Literary Guild main selection. And 

the author, a JS-year-old housewife 

and mother from Michigan's Upper 

Peninsula, is the recipient of an advance 

in the lovely neighborhood of 

half-a-miilioo dollars. 

The prehistorical novel, set in the 

Aleutian Islands during the last Ice 

Age, has at its center a Native 

American girl named Chagak. In the 

bpok's opening pages, the lJ-yearotd 

Chagak watches from a distance, 

m a tribe of warriors attacks her 

•ifnall village, slaughtering all its intxabitants 

and burning the village. 

ORPHANED AND ALONE, except 

for her baby brother, Pup, Chagak 

begins ber odyssey of survival 

and revenge. In time, she comes 

across a wise old man named Shuganan, 

a carver, who lives alone oo 

an isolated beach. Together, the two 

see things through to the bittersweet 

conclusion of "Mother Earth Father 

Sky." 

Along the way, her young brother 

dies, Chagak is raped by a member 

of the same tribe who destroyed her 

bome village and sbe gives birth to a 

son, Samix. Eventually, she finds a 

young man she can love. He loves 

her, too, and so it all works out 

rather nicely. 

As to the book itself, however, 

things doo't always work out quite so 

nicely. 

Oddly, ooe of Harrison's greatest 

strengths turns out to be one of the 

book's most troublesome 

weaknesses. Tbe amount of research 

that went into this book is, tosay the 

least, impressive.

break 

Victoria 

Diaz 

Hie author, I think, must know everything 

there is to know about the 

minutiae of Native American life, in 

this place at this time. Unfortunately, 

sometimes it feels as if she's put 

it all into this novel, inserting 

"asides" of information so often that 

a reader tends to be distracted by it 

all. 

I'm not absolutely certain about 

this, but, thanks to "Mother Earth 

Father Sky," I think I could build my 

own ulaq now (a Native American 

dwelling dug into a hillside and supported 

with driftwood or whale 

bone); repair my own ikyak (a boat);

of various animal parts); or weave a 

nice grass mat. With a little belp, I 

might even be able to get a start on 

flensing a whale. 

I'm not at all sure, though, that 

such a storehouse of information is 

essentially what I want from a novel. 

What do I want? Well, for starters, 

I'd like to be entertained. I'd like to 

be touched or moved in some way. 

I'd like to be a bit surprised. I enjoy 

being caught up in a story, gladly 

suspending disbelief, getting into a 

novel. I don't want to feel as if I'm 

out on the fringes somewhere, merely 

an observer, a feeling I experienced 

several times as I read 

"Mother Earth Father Sky." 

Ultimately, though, for me, the 

success or failure of a novel always 

comes back to Its characters. 

HERE, WE HAVE CHAGAK, who 

is pretty, brave, strong, healthy, nurturing, 

intelligent, kind and true. Her 

companion, Shuganan, is old, wise, 

courageous, paternal, loving, reasonable 

and also kind and true. 

The villain, Man-Wbo-Kills, is 

dark, dirty, beady-eyed, not very tall 

(be comes off as almost ludicrous at 

times). On tbe other hand, Kayugh, 

the young hunter Chagak loves, is 

tall, well-built, clear-eyed and sensitive. 

All are recognizable, standard-issue

quently. they're predictable and not 

overly interesting and not a real plus 

in this novel. 

The thing is, I had hoped to be 

whisked away and given a taste of 

what it might have really been like 

for a vulnerable, flesb-and-blood 

child-woman to have struggled to 

live and to gain some measure of 

contentment in that strange, faraway 

time and place. 

Maybe that was too much to hope 

for. 

Harrison intends "Mother Earth 

Father Sky" as the first part of a trilogy 

which will trace the migration 

of a Native American tribe from the 

Aleutians, and eventually to Upper 

Michigan.

for your jealousy and try to modify your behavior. 

This will be to your own advantage as much as 

helping you to maintain healthier relationships. 

Understand jealousy is a very complex feeling 

— part of the larger response of envy. It is experi- 

enced by everyone, at one time or another. How- 

ever, in extreme form, it is not a sign of true love 

as much as it is a drive for possession and domi- 

nation. 

But since it seems to be creating a problem for 

you, try to pinpoint exactly what the components 

are of your jealousy. To do this you will need to 

look back into your past to see how it evolved: 

Does it stem from inward anger, lack of self-es- 

teem or some unfortunate identification with an 

older person who was jealous? Sometimes 

jealousy stems from an early deprivation.

Thursday. June 28. 1990 O&E 

Clubhouses add 

resort dimension 

to developments 

Clubhouses in condominium or 

apartment complexes can be looked 

at in two ways. 

Yes, tbey are important marketing 

tools and are especially attractive 

to younger, more active residents 

who like to play and party as 

hard as they work. 

On the other hand, many people 

don't much use clubhouses and other 

recreational amenities after an initial 

rush, owners and managers said. 

"I think it's important to have 

these facilities, but they're probably 

used by a small percentage of people," 

said George Nyman, president 

of a property management firm. 

His clients include Somerset Park 

Apartments in Troy, opened in 1964 

and ooe of the first in suburban Detroit 

to offer clubhouses, pools, tennis 

courts and a golf course as amenities 

to tenants. 

"It's a bigger selling point than 

use point," concurred Mel Kaftan, 

president of Kaftan Enterprises of 

Southfield and president of the 

Apartment Association of Michigan. 

"YOUNG PEOPLE come in and 

see a pool, an indoor Jacuzzi and all 

kinds of images come to mind," he 

said. "I think it's like all exercise 

equipment. We all have a piece, but 

don't use 'em." 

Regardless of how much use clubhouses 

actually get, there can be no 

denying that they're getting fancier. 

Holtzman & Silverman of Farmington 

Hills has built what It considers 

to be a state-of-the-art clubhouse 

at its newest apartment development, 

Village Green of Madison 

Heights. 

The 6,000-square-foot clubhouse 

contains an indoor racquetball court, 

a sauna with showers and lockers, 

aerobics studio with workout equipment, 

a business center with a personal 

computer, printer and typewriter, 

a community room with 

kitchenette and wet bar, two TVs 

and a loft with a pool table. 

OUTSIDE, THERE'S a waterfall 

that tumbles into a pool, a heated 

whirlpool open year-round, a sand 

volleyball court and a tennis court 

'It's going to remind you more of 

a resort hotel than an apartment, 

and that's what it's designed to do," 

said Jonathan Holtzman. 

Rents at the Madison Heights 

complex range from $525 to $830. 

"I think it's important to recognize 

who your renter is," Holtzman said. 

"At Village Green, they're renting 

one, two, three years before they become 

home buyers. They can afford 

a house, but they want to save to get 

a better home or condo. 

"What we're really achieving is 

trying to make it seem like a vacation," 

he said. 

Kaftan Enterprises has a clubhouse 

at its Westbury Village Townhouses 

in Auburn Hills that includes 

an exercise room and equipment, 

showers, a kitchenette social area 

with fireplace for rental, plus an outdoor 

pool, whirlpool and playground. 

THE POOL is twice as large as in 

his previous developments and his 

first complex to include playground 

equipment. Kaftan said. 

Monthly rents range from $850- 

$950 

"Developments nowadays have 

been getting a little bigger and 

we've been increasing tbe amenities 

package," he said. "It's a competitive 

thing. Lifestyles change." 

The Irvine Group of Farmington 

Hills intends to build a clubhouse of 

some 2,500 square feet at Berwyck 

on the Park, a condominium complex 

with an equestrian motif in Milford. 

Seventy-eight detached units, 

priced from $250,000-$350,000 are 

planned around a recreational area 

that includes stables, riding trails, 

an outdoor pool and clubhouse, said 

Paul Levine, Irvine's president. 

The clubhouse will contain a sauna, 

exercise room and equipment, 

showers and lockers and two fireplaces. 

A WHIRLPOOL also may be included, 

Levine said. 

"It is our belief they (purchasers) 

would like to have everything right 

there," he said. "A lot of facilities on 

the property are already there." 

Clubhouses and other recreational 

amenities usually appeal to younger 

residents, owners and managers 

agree. 

"Empty nesters are more interested 

in square footage, safety, location 

and value for the dollar," Holtzman 

said. 

The Lagoons of West Bloomfield 

doesn't have a clubhouse because the 

older buyers there didn't really want 

one, Levine said. 


Plan landscaping around 

family recreation needs 

When putting finishing touches on a 

newly built homejt's easy to lose sight 

of things other than which appliances to 

buy or the color of carpeting to install. 

With so many decisions to make, doo't 

forget that the land surrounding your 

bome also needs design attention. 

Landscaping, the art of decorating a 

home's yard, enhances any house and allows 

you the opportunity to persooalize 

your surroundings Here are some 

guidelines to belp you create your own 

lawn and garden masterpiece from Better 

Homes and Gardens. 

First, set your goals. Tbe landscaping 

goals you establish for your new home 

depend largely oo your family's recreational 

needs. Have family members 

make lists of home-outdoor activities 

they en)oy. Combine the lists and arrange 

items in order of importance. Include 

items socb as privacy, streetside 

appeal, gardening, entertaining, recreation 

and relaxation. 

Look at your lot. Whether you (dan to 

do your own landscaping or oversee a 

contractor, it helps to look around at 

other appealing landscapes. Jot down 

the elements you like, paying close attention 

to shrub borders, antryway 

treatments, and foundations plantings 

Next, look at your lot objectively 

Make a list of assets and liabilities, noting 

important factors sock as aun angles 

during tbe day and throughout the 

direction of winter winds and 

hretsaa. privacy, 

and the cloaansas of tbe lot line to the 

areas you plan to work on. 

ONCE YOU'VE spotted your yard s

source is the loan plat, or survey plat — 

a map of the property that generally 

acccompanies tbe title to the land and is 

filed by your city planning office or 

with the mortgage bolder. Tbe survey 

plat shows lot lines drawn to scale, locations 

of all structures and any easements 

on the property. If you're not 

able to unearth a plan, make one of your 

As you go to the drawing board to engineer 

a plan, give some consideration 

to aesthetics As you draw in all existing 

landscape and structures, experiment 

by placing various combinations of 

plants to scale (their size at maturity) 

oo a tracing paper overlay. This trlaland-error 

method will lead you to a final 

design. 

Landscaping should blend with the architectural 

style of your bouse. Enhance 

a ranch style, for example, with shrubs 

that complement the horizontal lines of 

the house without being ao big they 

block the view 

INFORMAL PLANTINGS create a 

natural setting for your home while softening 

structural edges. For a two-story 

siaee placed at the corners produce ae 

attractive frame for the foundation*. 

oi plants alao plays a role ia 

The fine, feathery foliage of 

example, is 

shiny, broad-leaved evergreen. 

Keep in mind the following design 

principles used by professional 

landscapers: arrange plants of different 

sizes, shapes, textures and colors for a 

harmonious balance. Remember all seasonal 

qualities of plants so as to provide 

a year-round interest. Tie everything together 

by the repetition of s few plants. 

In putting your plant to work, you 

will find that landscaping can be costly, 

but there are ways to stretch your budget 

Ooe wsy is to do some landscape 

work ooe year and some the next You 

still end up with a unified look and can 

make changes along the way. Buying 

young nursery stock is another way to 

save mooey and create the same effect 

but it may take longer. But doot sacrifice 

quality for ecooomy. Bargain 

plants may be weak or dlaeaaed. 

If you have mature trees on your lot 

you're ahead of the game, but If you 

doo't It's hast to plant them first because 

they take longer to establish 

The plants you select for your landscape 

will make or break your design 

plan. For beat results, chooee a variety

Vacation home: taxing situation 

(AP^ — With the arrival oi summer 

comes the peak season in the 

sun for a special breed among American 

investments — the vacation 

house. 

Whether the property of your 

dreams is a waterfront villa or a 

modest cabin in the woods, vacation 

real estate has many virtues. 

There aren't many other ways to 

combine in one package the pursuit 

of leisure with the business of trying 

to build a financial nest egg and 

make it grow 

The idea is simplicity itself. Or at 

least it was until the architects of 

the nation's tax system went to work 

on it. 

Thanks in large measure to their 

regular efforts at additions, alterations 

and redesign, owners of vacation 

properties in the world of the 

1990s reed to be pretty fair hands at 

tax planning if they want to maximize 

both the psychic and the financial 

rewards of their investments. 

THE KEY distinction to be made 

is bow to classify the place — as a 

personal residence, a rental property. 

or a combination of the two. 

If you never rent it to anybody 

else, it logically qualifies as a personal 

residence, making mortgage 

interest (within limits) and property 

taxes eligible under ordinary circumstances 

as deductions on your 

tax return. 

With a property m this category, 

expenses such as upkeep and repairs 

cannot be deducted. 

When you can rent a property out 

for less than 15 days a year, its status 

as a personal residence still applies. 

At the other end of the spectrum, a 

place that is continuously occupied 

by paying tenants and never used by 

the owner is a rental property, subject 

to a completely different set of 

rules. 

OWNING AND operating a rental 

residence is a type of business venture 

known as a "passive activity," 

in which all expenses can be deducted 

from income when you are settling 

up accounts with Uncle Sam. 

In some cases, expenses exceeding 

your "passive" income can also be 

deducted. One rule, for example, allows 

a tax loss of up to $25,000 for 

people who are primary owners and 

managers of properties and who 

have adjusted gross income from all 

sources of $100,000 or less 

A property is still a "rental" if 

your personal use of it doesn't exceed 

either 14 days or 10 percent of 

the number of days it is rented to 

others. 

And what if you, say, live in a 

house for two months in the summer 

and rent it out the rest of the year? 

That's a_personal residence, according 

to the accounting firm of Deloitte 

L Touche.

Housing start ratio declines 

Housing starts as a ratio of existing 

stock declined in metro Detroit 

last year for the second successive 

year and nationally for the third 

year in a row, according to a study 

by Chicago Title & Trust Co. 

Detroit, with 1.35 units constructed 

in 1989 for every 100 existing 

units, ranked 50th of 80 metropolitan 

areas surveyed The Detroit area 

consists of Wayne, Oakland and Macomb 

counties. 

Housing starts include all kinds of 

units — detached houses, condominiums. 

apartments and townhouses 

Nationally, the figure was 1.5 

units for every 100 existing unit* 

Naples, Fla., with 11.72 units constructed 

per existing 100, led the 

country for tbe third year in a row. 

San Antonio. Texas, with 0 38 new 

units for every 100 existing units, 

ranked last. 

"An aging population and slower 

household growth along with continuing 

relatively high interest rates 

may keep the (national) ratio below 

2 0 for the rest of the century," said 

John Pfister, market research director 

for Chicago Title and Trust. 

Sun Belt cities continued to do 

well last year. Fort Myers. Sarasota 

and Miami, all in Florida, were 

Detroit, with 1.35 units constructed in 

1989 for every 100 existing units, 

ranked 50th of 80 metropolitan areas 

surveyed. 

among the 16 areas nationwide that 

showed increases from 1988. 

AMONG AREAS with more than a 

million existing units, only Atlanta 

(3.24) and Washington, D.C. (2.43) 

had growth rates exceeding the 1.50 

national average. 

The 10 metro areas with the highest 

growth last year, according to 

the survey, were: 

Naples with, 11.72 new units per 

100 existing; Las Vegas, Nev., 9.36; 

Fort Pierce, Fla, 5.91; Fort Myers, 

5.85; Orlando, Fla., 5.64, Riverside- 

San Bernardino. Calif., 5.57; West 

Palm Beach, Fla., 5.04; Vallejo-Fairfield. 

Calif., 4.71; Sacramento, Calif.. 

3 81; and Seattle, Wash., 3.69. 

In the Midwest. Columbus, Ohio, 

had 2.01 new units per 100 existing; 

Minneapolis-St. Paul, 1.92; Indianap- 

Clubhouses as resorts 


The location and the size of a development 

also sometimes determine 

whether a clubhouse rises in a 

particular area, Levine said 

THE SMALLER the complex, generally 

the less room for amenities, 

he said. Also, the closer to a major 

metropolitan area, the more opportunity 

there is to join private health 

clubs. 

Even people who use amenities 

apparently use only certain ones and 

generally don't sample all the candy

a small number will do aerobics, 

another group will play cards and a 

different crowd yet will take swim 

lessons, Nyman said. 

But you have to make things available 

to compete, he added. "I think if 

you don't have them, you're hindering 

yourself." 

Clubhouses and pools can be costly 

for the builder. 

The facilities at Village Green of 

Madison Heights cost upwards of 

$500,000, Holtzman said, while Kaftan 

said that facilities at Westbury 

Village cost $400,000.
