By Sandi KashaStaff Writer

Lance Cpl Cliff Collinsworth,

Collinsworth as patriotic and proud of his involvement With the Marines,

a 2004 Following his first tour of duty in Iraq,

in the line of duty in Iraq on Oct. 21. The 20-year-old U.S. Marine, who graduated. with honors and played varsity football for the Bulldogs, was killed when a bomb exploded near the Humvee he was riding in . : .

Chelsea teachers and administrators were among those grieving the loss of a young man with a bright future ahead of him. “Cliff was proud to go to war for his country,” said Barb Fisher. “He believed in what he was doing.”

Fisher, a retired alternative educa­tion teacher, like many, remembers

school students.“While school was not always easy for

Cliff, he worked hard to graduate on time,” Principal Ron Mead said. “Cliff was always very personable with a quick smile. Joining the military seemed to be a great match for Cliff.

“The last time he was in the build­ing in uniform with the recruiters, he looked great, shared that things were going well and expressed more confi­dence in himself than I had seen before. This is a sad day for Cliffs family and friends and for the entire

Chelsea community.”Marlene Segal, a former alternative

education teacher, remembered being impfessechwith howrnuchthe Mariiier changed Collinsworth. “When Cliff returned after his first tour of duty, he was very proud to be a Marine,” she recalled. “Cliff wanted the teachers to share in his success and teachers appre­ciate that. Cliff left Chelsea as a kid end came back a man.”

Collinsworth’s choice of career seemed to be obvious while he was a stu­dent at the alternative school

He was very active in collecting sup­plies for Project Iraq that was intended to support a former student who was sta­tioned in Iraq.

Students collected items the platoon needed like health care products, bat­teries, candy and other specialty items.

'"to-—mspire° Collinsworth. "In high school. Cliff’s challenges became his strengths and his greatest achievements,” said former teacher Kathy MacKercher. "lie went from being a class clown to a person who livened up a room. He went from not knowing his direction in life to a leader of his classmates and eventually his country.”

Col linsworth’s family was unavailable for comment and funeral arrangements were pending at press time.

What will be done to protect state revenue sharing and how will you change the way we try to attract businesses in Michigan?

Granholm: In Michigan, we’re changing the way we do busi­ness with businesses. I am working every day to provide a bet­ter business climate to draw jobs to Michigan. Since 2002,1 have signed ?1 targeted business tax puts into law, including a $600- million tax cut in 2005 for our beleaguered manufacturers.

Right now, only 12 states have a lower tax burden than Michigan. We have reduced perm itting times for some business

perm its by over 60 percent by using the power of technology.I personally am going anywhere and doing anything to bring ne\v business to Michigan. I traveled to Japan twice and have brought back more than 20 companies, creating more than 1,000 jobs. *.... I have also used the automotive expertise of Michigan to attract the automotive industry to create new research and development jobs in Michigan. Toyota is investing $150 million in a new research-and-development facility in Washtenaw County. Hyundai is building a new technical center in Superior Charter Township.N issan has opened a new design studio, in Farmington Hills. Mitsubishi and DaimlerChrysler a re partnering to build a $380 million engine p lan t in Dundee.

While many people have talked about diversifying our economy. I’ve taken action. My 21st Century Jobs Fund is investing $2 billion in emerging business sec­tors that promise trem endous job growth: alternative energy, the life sciences, homeland security and advanced manufacturing.7 Ju st last month, we awarded-61 businesses and uni­versities $100 million to create new jobs and expand th e ir business or research in these attractive, high- growth industries of tomorrow. Hundreds of more proposals are pending, which indicates the business community is ready and eager to create new jobs in Michigan.

In addition, l am working to give Michigan the most talented workforce in the country to draw the jobs of the 21st century. I fought for and signed into law tough hew academ ic standards for our high schools, arid I am pushing to give every child in Michigan access to a $4,000 scholarship for college or technical training.Our efforts are already beginning to pay dividends.Google, a company that could have invested any-

At 1:34 a.m. on Oct, 15, Officer Jason McVittie was northbound bn South Main Street north of Old U.S. 12 when he observed five peo­ple traveling southbound in a 1991 Mazda four-door with its passenger-side headlight out.

The officer tu rned around to follow the vehicle and wit­nessed it proceed through the red li$ht at Old U.S. 12 and pull into the parking lot at Pamida on S. Main,

McVittie radioed for assis­tance and detained the vehi­cle. As he spoke to the driver, Patrick C. Vesper, 20, McVittie noticed an open case of beer in the back seat. Vesper asked the front-seat passenger, an 18-year-old woman, to get the registra­tion out; of the glove box and

when she opened the com­partm ent McVittie saw a black-handled pistol. The officer drew his sidearm and ordered the occupants to put their hands up and not move; He o rdered the d river to open the car door from the outside and walk backwards to him and handcuffed him.

Officer Mark Pulford arrived to assist, searched Vesper and placed him in the back of his patrol car while McVittie recovered the Smith & Wesson Air Soft, a 6mm pel­

let gun resembling a much more dangerous, large-cal­iber semi-automatic pistol.

The passengers, two 18- year-old women, an 18-year- old man and a 23-year-old woman, were ordered out of the vehicle in the same man­ner, searched and placed in custody.

The driver failed field sobriety tests for balance and coordination and pre­liminary breath test results showed a .115 percent blood- alcohol content, exceeding

Michigan’s legal limit of .08 percent.

All the passengers were , administered PBTs as well. The male passenger regis­tered a .082 percent and he was issued a citation for minor in possession of alco­hol.

Vesper was arrested and charged for driving under the influence of liquor and was booked at the Chelsea Police Department. He was not charged with carrying a concealed weapon for the air pistol.

The officer stopped the cyclist, whom he knew from previous contacts as a con­firmed marijuana user.\*Fhe officer asked him what he was doing riding his bike so late at night and the cyclist

But, according to the police report, the cyclist began act­ing nervously so the officer asked him if he had any con­traband. The cyclist admitted htf had marijuana in his pock­et and the officer confiscated it. The substance tested posi­tive for marijuana so the offi­cer arrested the man and charged him with marijuana possession. He was booked and released.

Chelsea police officer was on patrol northbound on North Main Street near Sibley Road when his radar indicated an oncoming vehicle traveling 22 mph in a 45-mph zone. The officer stopped the vehicle onWest Middle Street when the license plate on it was con­firmed to belong to a 1988 Ford two-door passenger car.

The driver told the officer “the p |ate is from my other car.” The officer noticed the odor of intoxicants and an open can of beer behind the driver’s seat. When asked if he’d had anything to drink,

the driver relied, "Yeah, too much,” the report stated. The driver failed the tests and a preliminary breath test indi­cated his blood-alcohol level at .193 percent. The legal limit is .08 percent. The man was arrested and charged with operating a motor vehi­cle while intoxicated.

F le tc h e r g ets u p g ra d eThe Chelsea City Council is

backing a move by Lima Township to upgrade the sta­tus of Fletcher Road to a pri­mary road to help move traf­fic though the area more effi­ciently.

The council approved a resolution at its Oct. 10 meet-, ing that calls on the Washtenaw County Road Commission to reclassify the road and begin the process of paving and improving it to handle greater traffic flow betw een 1-94 and Dexter- Chelsea Road,

Chelsea City Manager Mike Steklac said the city was pro­tecting its interests by keep­ing more traffic off another major road even closer to the city. "Our position is, i f F letcher is not improved as that area along Dexter- Chelsea Road develops, that will increase traffic on F reer Road,” he said. ‘‘The area east of the city is desirable for development, and we need to plan for traffic.”

Lima Township Supervisor Kenneth U nterbrink said his township has tried to change the status of the road for sev­eral years, but it is one of the few with an interchange on the interstate freeway, that rem ains largely a gravel thoroughfare.

“MDOT has refused our requests in the past, saying it doesn’t meet their require­ments as a primary road,”. U nterbrink said. “As a local road any im provem ents’ would be fully funded by the township and paving a road costs approximately $1 mil- lion 'per mile.”

-The Chelsea Stadium Drive brick campaign is in its final weeks as the fall sports season comes to a close. The brick drive was launched several weeks ago as part of the Chelsea Stadium Drive fund-raising efforts for a new synthetic field turf for the 2007 season. The overall goal of the initiative is to raise $660,000 through private donations and sales from commemorative bricks. More than $550,000 has been raised so far and prospective major gifts are still pending.

Early sales for bricks have been brisk and commu­nity interest is strong.

“We have had a very posi­tive response from everyone so far,” says Committee Chairperson John Mann. “People are ordering bricks and ^inscribing them with their own special message.”

Three levels of personal­ized bricks are available. They include: Bulldog Brick for $100; Bandstand Brick for $250; and Kickoff Brick for $500. All bricks will be per­sonally inscribed and perma­nently placed near the main entrance at the stadium.

Bricks may be purchased by check, cash or credit card and brick forms are avail­able at Chelsea State Bank, Thompson’s Pizzeria or by calling the bank at 1-734-475- 1355. All brick purchases are tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law.

“We have had some very original inscriptions placed on bricks,” says Mann. “One donor bought a large brick in honor of his undefeated. JV football team from the early 70’s including their slogan - We’re not a team. We’re an army.” '

Another person inscribed “Still waiting to win the 50-50 raffle.” A co-worker, Frank Renton, bought a brick in honor of his. cousin, Scott Smith, who was killed in Viet

Nam. Another bank employ­ee, Mary Kay McH'affie, bought a brick in memory of her father, Jim Gaken, with his class year and old jersey number.

Many parents are buying bricks for their kids in the band with their class year and instrument, or kids on the football team with their posi­tion or number. Many former teachers have purchased bricks, as well as football alumni, former cheerleaders, and former graduates.

“We have had classmates who later m arried from as. far back as the 1940s buy bricks with their names and graduating class,” saidMann. “Some grandparents are also buying bricks and they can make good

Christmas presents.”“It’s never been more obvi­

ous than now that we need a new m ultiuse field ,” said Athletic D irector Wayne Welton. "One that, can be used 200 or 300 times a year instead of the dozen or so times it’s used now. Just take a walk on our field and you’ll see for yourself the need for a new surface.”

The committee has raised almost 85 percent of the cam­paign goal through dona­tions, pledges, and brick sales. The committee is still accepting personal and cor­porate donations and pledges for major gifts. All pledges are due by July 1, 2007. For more information, call John Mann at 1-734-475- 4210.

D avid Jolly, a sci­ence teacher at Beach Middle

School, has seen plenty of changes during his 18 years“as both-teacher and coach. But while many of the changes have been for the better, others have not, including the growing amount of pressure being placed on students.

This growing pressure has created a stress level for students that Jolly has never seen before. And he , believes it’s reaching seri­ous levels.

"I believe that kids are more stressed than at any time in our history,” said Jolly, who also coaches var­sity swimming at Chelsea High School. "We live in such a competitive world with so many requirements to just make it. Kids take the ACT two, three and four times just to get a score that will make them look good to a perspective college. That was not the intent of the' ACT, but it happens every year. Kids take classes on how to take the test, which is unbelievable.”

State and federal man­dates, including the No ■Child Left Behind Act, have put added pressure on school districts to succeed. That pressure trickles down to the teachers and ulti­mately to the students, who often face difficult chal­lenges they may hot be ready to take on.

“Kids get so much home­work each and every week because of the constraints of the MEAP (Michigan Educational Assessment Program) format and ■ national standards placed on schools,” Jolly said. “So many benchmarks to hit and so little time to do it.All this stress on school dis-

Beach Middle School teacher David Jolly sees first-hand that students today are more stressed than ever before.tricts eventually makes it down to the kids, So many rules and so many penal­ties.”

Barbara Locks has taught sixth-grade language arts at South Meadows Elementary for four years and has been involved in teaching since 1977. She agrees that today’s students are facing more responsibilities, and in some cases, the student just can’t handle the work load.

“Many students have activities after school, and some are very good at jug­gling work with'sports and other activities and Others •are not,” Locks said. “Organized sports for younger students were not as prevalent and travel teams were rare. School today is much more aca­demic than it was in the past and students are expected to know more at a younger age.”

Locks’ experience allows her to often spot the warn­ing signs of a stressed out student.. ,

“The student has that ‘deer in headlights’ look when I talk to them about

class work or homework,” she said. “The student has trouble turning work in on time and talks about how much time homework takes.”

Toni Kinsey has taught global studies at South Meadows for three years and sees it slightly different than Jolly and Locks.

“I don’t see that students are reacting to academic pressures any more than before, but during class dis­cussions there are fewer stories about climbing trees, playing a neighbor­hood game or riding bikes while there are many about coaches, team practices and competitions,” she said. “Many students’ lives are filled with planned activi- ties.”

Kinsey, who before becoming a teacher was an Ann Arbor police officer, says-students often com­plain “that they have no time to complete their one paragraph assignment because they plan to spend the weekend at ice rinks across the tri-state area.”

However, she says, it’s

rare that a parent explains that the reason for missing or late work is because of a sports commitment.

“The students may be telling me about the con­flict because they are excit­ed about the activities they are involved in and want to talk about them ” Kinsey said.

Today Jolly looks out at his students looking back at him for guidance and can feel their pain.

“It’s tough being a kid,” saidJollyr who-is marrn with four children of his own. “Terrorism, bad role models, liars in very high positions of government, divorce.

“I don’t remember having to do a ton of homework when I was a kid. I did my fair share, but I can honest­ly say that it d idn’t happen until maybe 6th grade. I wish kids could just be kids. They hear about hate and death each and every week. They can’t get away from it.” , " r

So what can teachers and administrators do to help relieve the pressure and remove the burden of stress? It’s not an easy ques­tion to answer.

“W e’have fun’ with lan­guage,” Locks says. “Our motto is a turtle: we stick out our necks, and try new things. Mistakes are looked at as opportunities to learn. I often reduce assignments and allow students to ‘redo’ for a better grade and also allow additional time to complete assignments.”

Kinsey says: “My method of eliminating stress for sixth grade students is to be flexible, approachable and to truly enjoy spending time with each student. Together we can solve most prob­lems.

“I allow a one day exten­sion on homework assign­ments with no questions , asked. Students receive full' credit if they turn it in the next day. This allows for any situation tha t may arise and eliminates the need for parent notes or late night tears.”

Solving Stress for Swamped Students

Students, particularly those in high school, can , buckle under the pressure of lifestyles that some edu-. cators and parents alike feel have grown far too active. As a result, students may need a little more help coping with stress and approaching their increasingly large list of responsibilities. Here are some tips to help students avoid the pitfalls of stress:

adults have found that tak­ing breaks during the work­day is a good way to keep energized . and relieve stress. The same approach works for students as well. Studying for too long with; out taking a break can,, be counterproductive; conceh* . tration will begin to wahe after too long and students won’t retain as much infor­mation.

• Track down the cause of stress. In an attempt to form an impressive resume for prospective colleges, many high school students take on far too many activities. Students who feel as though they’re being pulled in too many directions should drop an activity or two,

• Talk it out. While par­ents want their children to do well in school and other activities, most parents would admit they primarily want their children to be happy. Students feeling stressed should talk to their parents about what’s the source of the problem.

• Exercise and eat well, Studies have proven the ' mental benefits of exercise.In addition to health bene* fits, exercise generally puts people in, better /moods, - making them more capable . of coping with stress in the . process.' Part of that Is ., because exercise relieves muscle tension, which can build up greatly in iftdividtr-.. als suffering from signifi­cant stress. •/"

November Election 2006: Washtenaw County Commissioner

in c u m b e n t O u im e tBy Sandi Kasha

W ashtenaw C ou n ty C om m is­sion er race betw een in cu m ben t M ark O uim et an d challenger F ran k Grohnert.

M A R K O U I M E T

Washtenaw County Commissioner Mark Ouimet (R-District 1) will put his hat in the political ring for a sec­ond time.

“I look forward to continu-

■ ing my work on the corn- m i s s i o n , ” Ouimet said in a pre­pared state- m e n t announcing his re-elec­tion cam­paign. “MyOuimet

proven record of accomplish­ment shows that I take my position on the. commission

. very seriously.“I have knocked on every

r e s id e n c e in th e d is tr ic t , I have talked with thousands of people and, if nobody was home, I left questionnaires. I know what is important to the people I serve.”

Ouimet, who serves the townships of Lyndon, Dexter, Webster, Sylvan, Scio, and Lima, as well as the village of D exter and the city of Chelsea, continues to be con­cerned about public safety, specifically Washtenaw County Sheriffs road patrol.

“Of all the services that the county provides, public safe­ty should be first and fore­m ost I have been the Solitary voice in the out-county area supporting road patrol and look forward to continuing he fight for the residents of

the district,” Ouimet said.The Scio Township resi­

dent is proud of his efforts to help save the road patrol, make it more affordable, and

to keep core services such as the Special Weapons and Tactics team, the dive team and K-9 unit.

“I feel good about my first two years — what we’ve been able to accomplish with road patrol,” he said, noting his biggest challenge as a com­missioner has been the issue of road patrol, which he said was all but gone two years ago. He now speaks of the road patrol with pride.

“Our sheriffs deputies are and have been very profes­sional in serving the commu­nity,” Ouimet said. “I think our first-responders should be congratulated for the great effort they’ve put forth.”

Ouimet has a varied history of civic involvement. He has served as an Ann Arbor City Council trustee, president of North wood University, chair­man of the Washtenaw Development Council and as chairman of the Ann Arbor A r e a C h a m b e r o f C o m m e r c e . .

He also, has volunteered with the United Way, the University qf Michigan, the U of M Hospital, St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, the American Red Cross, Washtenaw j Workforce Development and the Ann Arbor Hands on Museum.

Ouimet said he hopes to see the units of local govern­ment work closer together to ensure the integrity of the townships and villages in the county. ,

“Going forward, I would like to see the townships and the cities are more proactive in letting county government know what they need so we can work closer together,” he said.

Ouimet, a fourth-genera- tionW ashtenaw^Countyresi- dent, is satisfied with the job he has done as a county com­missioner.

“I feel that I’ve really been able to demonstrate what I

promised to do when I ran,” he said.

Although Ouimet is looking' forward to continuing as a county commissioner, he also may be faced with an oppor­tunity to run for lieutenant governor alongside GOP gubernatorial Candidate Dick DeVos. Ouimet has been rum ored as a. potential can­didate since late last fall and said he is interested in the position. ' ■ -

“I’ve been very flattered that a group has felt that they could think of me as being on the ticket for lieutenant gov­ernor, but I’m really focused on what I can do here in Washtenaw County,” Ouimet said.

“I guess I’ll just take a wait- and-see attitude.”

F E A N K C K O H N E R T

For 24 years, F rank Grohnert has been practicing law in Dexter. Now the. life-

Washtenaw County is hoping to serve his fellow citizens on the Washtenaw County Board of Commissioners.

Grohnert, a Lyndon Township resident, will face incumbent Mark Ouimet for the 1st District Nov. 7.

Grohnert feels that he is a good fit for the position.

Grohnert

“I feel like I’m the best can­didate in this race to best

. represent the residents; the taxpayers; the citizens of dis­trict No. 1,” he said.

A 1975 Chelsea High School graduate, Grohnert

earned an undergradu­ate degree from the University of Detroit in 1979 in crim­inal justice. He went on to study at Thomas M.Cooley Law

School in Lansing, graduat­ing in 1982.

After law school, he returned to Dexter: and began practicing law with his father, Gerald Grohnert.

“At that time, he was 80 years old and he basically taught me the real practice of law, which is totally different from what you learn in school,” Grohnert said about his fa th er. “I was-so-fortunate- to have him basically m entor me and show me the way.” ■

After beginning his law practice, Grohnert got involved in the Knights of Columbus and later became a board m ember at the St. Louis C enter in Sylvan Township, a residential facil­ity for developmentally dis­

abled people.“It just gave me an outlet

for my desire to serve,” Grohnert said.

In the mid-1980s, Grohnert further felt the need to help the community and g o t . involved in the Dexter Downtown Development Authority.

“At that time, the powers „ that be were trying to devel­op the downtown area into something very nice tha t ! would be very attractive for people to come and walk and enjoy downtown Dexter,” he said.

It took two tries, but voters eventually passed a bond proposal for the downtown improvements. Grohnert is proud of that accom plish­

ment.“I left the Downtown

Development Authority from there because I feit that I had dpne what I wanted to do,” Grohnert said.

But he continued, to serve the St. Louis Center and about six years ago he got involved in Faith In Action, a service organization that helps families in need in the Chelsea-Dexter area.Grohnert has served as pres­ident of Faith in Action, which is based in Chelsea, for the last two years. .

believe, can be better solved at home father than at school,

“Let the teacher be the bad guy,” Kinsey said. “If the work looks sloppy, rough or low quality have the teacher handle it instead of forcing the child to redo the work at home late at night.Remember that ultimately the child wants your love and approval not for you to be the one to check their work.”: Kinsey also stresses that parents should know what the daily homework assign­ments are by checking the school homework line or Website. :

“Ask students to tell you about their work or ask spe­cific questions about it like, ‘Did you understand the reading about Canada today?’ instead of ‘Do you have homework?’” she said; “Be in the know, but not criti­cal of the product.”

Locks offers a simple approach, which is often the most effective.

“Enjoy learning,” she says.„ “Make sure students have support. Turn off the TV and video games and assist stu­dents when possible. Read to them and just enjoy learn­ing.”

Jolly says parent involve­ment and understanding is the key.

“The kids want to spend time with their parents and they don’t care why or for how long,” Jolly said. “Use the time spent doing home­work as quality time, The more frequent the sessions of help, the easier it will become.”

Jolly said the counseling services at all of the Chelsea , schools a r r ’ top notchf’-

“There are numerous sup­port groups available for kids a t each building,”, he said. “Our administrative staff is always looking for new avenues to provide serv­ices for children.”

Jolly offers one more piece of advice.

“I believe one of the strongest and most powerful ways to ra ise ch ild ren in today’s world is by having a faith in God,” he said. “There is a true sense of security knowing that God will be beside you helping through life ’slittle ups and downs and occasionally the really tough days. One’s walk with God is never easy, but he is always there to help. We all need help from friends, fam­ily and especially God."

Treasurer LuAnn Koch said the township has a cost recovery program in place for a num ber of different incidents “We’ve been pret­ty successful in collecting,” she said. "We started using a private collection agency in April."

Resident Don Newsted wondered what the township would have done had the CAFA millage passed ...

"Where would that $246,000 have gone?” he asked. "What would you do -with the extra millage?”

Solo replied that it would have led to a budget surplus, but. not necessarily returned to residents as a tax decrease.

"If we had dropped our property tax assessments, the state would have dropped our revenue shar­ing even more,” he said. “It wouldn’t have helped.”

He stressed that he was taking a long view, trying to estim ate needs during the 20*year life of the bonds.

Another revenue concern, was the amount of sewage treatm ent capacity that was planned on, and Koch’s hus­

band, Brian Koch, expressed his d isp leasure that Lima Township had not followed through on ap agreement to provide 300,000 gallons of sewage daily to the Sylvan system.

“Lima hasn’t set up. their sew er district yet,” Koch said. “Sue them if you have to, because the day may come when the people of this township will have to pay.”

Contacted at his office afterw ard, Lima Township- Supervisor KennethU nterbrink confirmed that no sewage had been sent, but his township had not violat­

ed terms of the agreement because no time limit had been stipulated.. “The commitment was that

we have 300,000 gallons available per day that can be used for future develop­ment,” U nterbrink said. “At that time it was agreed there was no time constraint.”

Unterbrink said expected demand for sewers did not m aterialize because devel­opment in his township has been equally slow, and it makes little sense to con­struct water and sewer lines no one is seeking.

“I just feel that I have the leadership qualities to offer the residen ts of western Washtenaw County as the commissioner for District 1,” he said.

“I’ve lived here all my life. I’ve had my own small busi­ness, my law practice, in Dexter all my professional life and I know what it’s like to pay taxes and run a busi­ness.”

Police protection is one major issue the county faces that Grohnert is concerned about.

“I don’t think thfere are any ready-made answers, but I think that with my experi­ence and my presence on the board, I could do a better job of bringing the parties togeth­er and at the same time look but for the interests of west­ern Washtenaw County.

“We’re not here in isola­tion. We’re all in this togeth­er,” he said.

Property taxes are another issue Grohnert cited as a con­cern .^

“It’s evident that more and more of the funding for serv- ice$ is falling on the backs of the township taxpayers,” he said. “I see the federal level cutting back, which cuts back on the state, and the domino effect is tipping toward the townships.”

Grohnert believes the county should take a serious look at budget cuts to address the problem.

“I think we have to look at the budget -r- look a t our pri­orities and decide what we can do w ithout because we have to have police protec­tion, we have to have fire safety. We have to provide for all the essential services, i t ’s just a m atter o f setting these priorities and trying to avoid future tax increases,” he said.

Grohnert would like to see continued regional efforts in

land use planning to deter­mine the best uses for open Space in western Washtenaw County, with cooperation between townships, the vil­lage of Dexter and the city of Chelsea;

He is in favor of conserva­tion easements, which can be designated by property own­ers to res tric t future land uses and preserve the land.

“I think it’s a tremendous idea that should be m ain­tained,” Grohnert said.

He believes a county com­m issioner needs to have a background as an advocate, m ediator and problem solver.

“I think that I can be an advocate as well as someone tha t canrbring people toget er to solve problems,” said Grohnert, who also serves as chairm an of the W estern Washtenaw Democrats.

“I have no designs on high­e r office. I’m not looking to go qlseWhere. I’m committed to w estern Washtenaw County,”

The campaigns of Democratic Gov.. JenniferGranholm and Republican challenger Dick DeVos certainly have been filled with finger pointing.

Granholm has accused DeVos of f l l l i i Q being part of the economic problem inU U I D Michigan by sending jobs to China.

The fact is, he helped keep jobs in Michigan, but to do so also had to cre­ate a few in that booming country, too.

Meanwhile, DeVos has criticized Granholm for not keeping her promis­es — such as sm aller classroom sizes and helping diversify Michigan's econ­omy. Looking at the big picture, you have to concede that Granholm has had major stumbling blocks in her path, from the decline of the major automakers to a hostile, Republican- controlled state legislature.

However, when you take a closer look at both candi-.apart - -

treatm ent which can reduce a woman’s risk of heart attack and stroke.

And despite the fact that more women die of cardiovascular disease they are less likely than men to receive certain diagnostic testing and treatm ents, such as angio­plasties and stents.New federal legislation is intended to close gaps in the treatm ent of cardiovas­cular disease in women and give both women and health care providers cru­cial information to help reduce the death rate.

The HEART for Women Act - b ipartisan federal legislation - would improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatm ent of cardiovas­cular disease in women. The legislation would raise

B ew are women

To the Editor: For more than 40 years, h ea rt dis­ease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases have been the No. 1 k iller of Am erican women yet many still perceive heart disease as a "m an’s prob­lem.”

While the death rate for women has actual-, l y gone up slightly over the last 20 years - especially among minority women - the death rate for men has been steadily declining.

Surprisingly, physicians are often at the root of these -d isparities. A recent

from Granholm.True, the governor has outlined much of what she

would like to do in a booklet titled “Jobs Today, Jobs Tomorrow.” The publication is her vision on how to straighten out Michigan’s economy.

DeVos, likewise, has his booklet, “The Michigan Turnaround Plan,” which details job creation, overhaul­ing state government and selling Michigan-made prod­ucts throughout the world. '

DeVos has more to his credentials. He has steered a major business through troubled waters and left it and jobs in Michigan intact.

Also, consider what he did for Grand Rapids. When he saw his hometown struggling, he brought community leaders together to make a change. They led the con­struction of a new arena and convention center down­town. Today, downtown Grand Rapids is one of the hottest communities in Michigan.

Granholm has worked hard to fulfill her promises.She deserves credit for keeping her poise and standing firm in the face of political obstacles.

She has a charm and grace that is a credit to her role as governor and to the state of Michigan.

By the same token, DeVos’ ability to run a major cor­poration is proven. If anyone should know how to turn around Michigan’s economy, he should. Given that he is making money in Michigan, DeVos must also be given credit for his business commitment to the state. Add Oakland County Clerk Ruth Johnson to the mix as DeVos’ running mate and you have a quality duo run­ning for the top sta te posts. ,. ■ 4

Although each candidate has strengths and weakni es, in the final analysis, it comes down to a ra ther sli pie conclusion. T

Granholm has had four years to turn around the state’s economy —«th$ worst in the nation. Eor whatever the reasons, she hasn’t'done sd. It’s tim e to le t someone else - r an expert in business, among other things ~ take a shot a t it. In baseball, when a starting Pitcher gets pulled in the seventh inning, it’s not necessarily because he has done a poor job. It’s just that he’s done all he can do and it’s time for a fresh hurler.

Figuratively speaking, it’s tim e to pull Granholm and go with a solid re lief pitcher in DeVos. The Chelsea- Standard and Dexter Leader endorse Dick DeVos for governor.

American H eart Association survey found that only8 percent of primary care physicians recognized that

heart disease kills more women each year than men, a fact since 1984. If doctors don’t realize that Women are at risk, they are

awareness about the pre-' vention, diagnosis and treatm ent of cardiovascu­lar disease in women and provide train ing for health care providers; tighten FDA requirem ents for reporting gender-based data about new and experi­m ental m edicines and devices; and expand the Centers for Disease Control and P revention’s WISE- WOMAN free screening

\ programs for low-income, uninsured-woffien at risk for heart disease and stroke to all 50 states.

This bill can help assure that women will be provid­ed with the best care for their unique needs arid that women receive drugs and devices that have been proven to be safe and effec­tive for them. I urge all Members of Congress to make this a national priority by supporting and co-sponsoring the HEART for Women Act.

For years, the Straits of Mackinac presented a diffi­cult barrier to travel between the Upper and Lower Peninsulas.

When railroads intro­duced car ferries (boats that carried railroad cars) in the 1880s, it became easier to cross the straits. In 1923, the State Highway Department started a ferry service for passenger cars. However, as more people wanted to cross the straits, especially during deer hunting season, the wait to board a ferry took hours.

People discussed building a bridge across the five-mile straits for years. One early plan called for a series of bridges linking the peninsu­las via Mackinac and Bois Blanc islands. In the early 1950s, Gov. G. Mennen Williams established the Mackinac Bridge Authority to build a bridge across the Straits bf Mackinac.

To deal with the area's high winds and grinding ice, engineers proposed a sus­pension bridge. A suspen­sion bridge is one in which the roadway is. hung or sus-

from cables that are held in place by towers. Construction of,the Mackinac Bridge began in March 1954. Except for the . w inter months, work contin-

Leah Morrison (left to right), Sara Myers, JimmyThrasher, and Matt Moe are all members of the orchestra pro­gram at the high school and have been tuning up to host the Harvest Hoedown on Nov. 4.

Harvest Hoedown helps raise money tor school’s orchestra programOn Nov. 4 in the GYM at the

Washington Street Education Center, the Chelsea High School orchestra program will throw a “Harvest Hoedown!” The Hoedown will include square dancing by the Jackson Square Dance Club, per­formances by the Beach Fiddle club and the Chelsea House Orchestra. Members of the Jackson Square Dance club w ill atso be teaching beginning square dancing so every­one can join the fun!

The fall “Harvest HoedOwn” is set up to be fun for all members of the family. Beginning at 5 p.m., the members of the orchestra program will be stationed at m ultiple activi­ties, including donuts on a string, bobbing for apples, face painting, a

cookie walk, cardboard maze and more. Activities will take place in the WSEC GYM and Cafeteria. Tickets will be sold for each event in addition to an entrance fee of $5.

“The “Harvest Hoedown!" is a fund-raiser to help members of the program pay for orchestral activi­ties,” said Jed Fritzem eier, Orchestra D irector at Chelsea High School. One of-the-activittesds-the-Nationai Orchestra Competition of the Am erican String Teachers Association Convention at D etroit’s Orchestra Hall on March 8, 2007. Chelsea High School’s Symphony Orchestra was chosen from a nation­al pool of school orchestras that apply for the honor by subm itting a recording and recommendations.

Another event is an exchange with the Detroit School of F ine Arts Orchestra program. “This is a chance for Chelsea students to have a positive experience with students from a different area and back­ground using music as a bridge,” Fritzem eier said. “Students will perform music together and attend classes for a day at each school.’’

Finally, students in Chelsea high school’s orchestra and band pro­gram are going to a perform ance of the Detroit Symphony at Orchestra Hall in February. “This event will hopefully offset losses in the school budget that would normally cover transportation and teacher substi­tutes,” Fritzem eier said.

The Chelsea City Council gave its blessing Sept. 26 to nearly $22 m illion in tax- exem pt bonds to help finance construction of an expansion a t the Silver Maples re tirem ent commu­nity.

Silver M aples executive d irec to r Je rry Wilczynski told , the council the bonds would be used to build 28, two-bedroom independent- living apartm en ts in two wings of th ree stories each at the front of the current building. ,

“It allows 36 more resi­dents to join the community, and provides additional rev­enue to S ilver M aples,” Wilczynski said. “It’s a win- win for everybody.”

The expansion will bring the facility to a total of 56,000 square feet of private living space and communal” areas.

“We’re also adding 2,400 square feet to the common areas in the assisted-living section and 2,000 square feet to common space in independen t living,” WilczynskT”s a i d . “With the increase in residen ts we also plan to add five new

employees to the staff.”More than half of the bond

am ount is earm arked for elim inating existing debt on the Silver Maples complex, Wilczynski noted, and actual construction cost is estim at­ed at $10.5 million.

The 30-year bonds would be issued by the Chelsea Economic .D evelopm ent Corp., but according to Chelsea City Manager Mike .Steklac, the city would not be held liable for payment obligations.

“The EI>C is just a fiduci­ary pass-through, but there is a benefit to the city,” Steklac said. “There are no city tax do llars involved, and it will create additional construction jobs and tax base.”

The facility has already received final approval from the Chelsea Planning Commission, and the financ­ing approval was the final step, A groundbreaking cer­emony took place Aug. 25, and Wilczynski said the facility plans to be open a year from now.

The construction would help ease the long wait for potential new residents. TKe““ majority of residents come from Ann Arbor, but 38 per­cent are from Chelsea.

“Silver M aples is an im portant part of the com­munity,” Steklac said.

Chelsea police

By Edward FreundlSpecial Writer

A New York state resident mav find him self staying in Michigan longer than expected a fte r Chelsea police a rrested him on drug and weapons charges.

Chelsea Police Officer Shane Sum ner was working a stationary rad a r detail a t 12.24 a.m. on Oct. 6 on Sibley Road-east of W erkner Road when i a d a r in d ica ted a passing vehicle traveling at 48 mph.

Sumner in itia ted a traffic stop at Dewey and Howard stree ts and Officer Mark Pulford arrived to assist.

The suspect, who presen t­ed a New York sta te d river’s license, den ied having any­thing dangerous in the vehi­cle when asked, but when he opened the glove box to get his registration, Pulford saw a knife in the glove box and seized it as the suspect reached for it.

The officers o rdered the driver out of the car and searched him, recovering a bag of suspected m arijuana in his pants pocket and two glass pipes with suspected m arijuana res id u e in his jacket pocket, according to the police report.

The man was a rrested for the m arijuana and the con­cealed weapon, and Pulford secured the vehicle while Sum ner tran sp o rted the driver to the Chelsea P ° ^ ce D epartm ent and re tu rned to the scene.

A search of the vehicle’s center console uncovered a second bag of suspected m arijuana and ano ther glass p ipe, a pouch contain­ing num erous pink, s ta r­shaped p ills and a diamond ring; as well as a digital cam era on t h e ' passenger sea t and a double-edged hatchet in the trunk.

A 4-inch folding knife was taken firom the m an's jacket during booking a t CPD, and police confiscated his New York d riv er’s license when they discovered it had been suspended^ W hen ques­tioned , th e m an denied

He said the digital cam era belongs to his g irlfriend , who was not nam ed in the rep o rt, and the diam ond

ring was an engagem ent ring for her. When asked about the knives and hatch­et, he told police he was a knife collector . — — -

The case has been turned over to the W ashtenaw County P rosecu to r’s Office for review.

take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your continual support of the teachers, adm inistra­tors and all Chelsea School D istrict employees as you start at the bottom of your ballot with the renew al of the sinking fund. Your vote helps us provide the very best we can in helping our kids grow into respon­sible citizens.

We’ll see you at the polls.

To the Editor: It’s rare for a politician to be as candid and forthright as Tinv

. Walberg was in the inter­view printed in the Chelsea Standard (Oct. 19). His quotes tell us exactly what we need to know about him. .

Walberg said: “President Bush was correct to remove a terrorist-sponsoring, WMD- posesstng, o il-richdictator^-

Sinldng Fund renewal at bottom of ballot, top of prioritiesTo the Editor: As we face a critical mill-

age renew al for th e C helsea School D istric t’s Sinking Fund, it is easy to understand why people may be confused about school funding. Keeping straight the d ifference b e tw e e n . F ed era l and State funding, along with m aintaining the p roper Use of our General, Sinking and Bond funds can be a daunting task. We would like to take th is opportunity to clarify a few. points, regard ing the upcom­ing millage.

We currently have th ree major funds. Our G eneral fund is for our classroom expenditures (teacher salaries, health- care, textbooks, re tirem en t, m aterials and supplies). Our Bond fund is what the voters passed in 2004 to update and improve our existing facilities. That proj­ect is nearing com pletion and our bu ild ­ings are looking great.

Our Sinking fund is our fUnd for m ajor building renovations and repairs; highly im portant in a d istric t with buildings ranging in age from 10 to 55 years. Through this fund, the community has helped us m aintain our buildings and parking lots for over 30 years.

The State of Michigan is specific about how we spend our fund dollars. Our G eneral fund do lla rs can be used to

rep a ir a roof or pave a parking lot but our Bond fund and Sinking fund dollars can­no t be used for classroom expenditures. That means if we have a major renova­tion need but no Sinking fund to pay for it, we would need to use the General fund for this expenditure* thus taking money away from the classroom and our stu ­dents.

The Chelsea School D istrict Mission Statem ent is achieving educational goals one student at a time. It only takes eight words to say it. It takes over $25 m illion, 400 employees, school improvement p lan­ning, six building programs, a community education program, teacher professional development, and our intense commit? m ent to student success to achieve it. .It takes General fund dollars to m ake .it happen. Please help to keep our General fund dollars where they are needed most.

On the Nov. 7 b a llo t you will find a request for a renew al of the d istric t’s existing Sinking F und millage, which expires th is year. It is a ten year renew al a t 0.9283 mills. It is the very last item on the ballot. We urge you to vote YES so that we, the Board of Education, can do o u r job of keeping kids first!

from power."Clearly Bush andW alberg

are not on the same page! Our president has repeatedly said that Saddam Hussein had NO ties to A1 Qaeda. President Bush has told us that NO weapons of mass destruction were ever found in Iraq.And I believe him.

If Iraq was so "oil-rich." then why has Iraq recon­struction cost Chelsea tax­payers so much money? So much that our children and grandchildren will be pay­ing down the national debt caused by this war?

Walberg said: “We have been successful in removing the Taliban from power in Afghanistan.” According to the US Department of Defense, the Taltban control over 75 percent of Afghanistan.

With drugs such a big problem in our schools, the last thing we need is Walberg hanging a false “Mission Accompished” ban­ner over Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

Walberg said: "We have been successful in establish­ing a constitutional republic in Iraq.” * His comments defy common sense.Does he really expect us to believe that Iraq has a func­tioning government?

Walberg said: “The federal government should crack down On lawsuits that dis­courage doctors from doing business.” Chelsea seniors now know where he stands, Walberg is for the healthcare industry, and against patient safety.

So this is Tim Walberg’s campaign against Chelsea,

He’s running against our wallets. He’s running against our schools. He’s running against our children and grandchildren. H e’s run ­ning against our seniors. He’s running against our common sense. He’s running against our way of life.

S earch fo r a lternative fuels

To the Editor: I recently attended a town meeting on

alternative fuels that was informative and exciting. We are sidcand tired-of-paying— outrageous gas prices while the big oil companies get rich,

Thanks to State Representative Pam Byrnes (D- Lyndon Township), who hosted and organized the town hall meeting, I know what our options are.Michigan must invest in alternative fuels.

There are leaders in gov­ernm ent who are' showing us the way to independence from fossil fuels. This meet­ing includedrepresentatives from the fdel industry, the auto indus­try and the Mich.Dept, of Agriculture.Together they presented a well rounded picture of what is available now and

near future.Rep. Byrnes is the only

state legislator to provide the taxpayers of my district with this type of useful infor­mation.

Dozens of deputy jobs and the public safety of many villages and town­ships may be in peril if Commissioner Mark Ouimet is not there to continue the fight to save road patrols in Washtenaw County. The details of this ongoing bat­tle were highlighted in the Spring 2006 Law Enforcement Journal. Mark worked closely with local DSA President Harry Valentine and the SOS (Save our Sher­iff) campaign, to ensure that road patrols remain a core service provided to all county taxpayers.

Legislative Director and Washtenaw County Business Agent Kenneth E.Grabowskt urges everyone who has friends or family in Washtenaw County to encourage them to vote for Mark Ouimet.

Ouimet was presented with the POAM’s Commissioner of the Year Award for 2006 at our Annual Conven­tion.

Mark will continue insisting that the county assess the cost of road patrols fairly and not allow them to be expanded to fund other programs. Mark Ouimet is a good friend; our members and the citizens of Washtenaw County deserve a commissioner with his outstanding char­acter and fortitude.

DeVos fans on* Page 11-A

against Granholm

I . , - .

Politics can be such a cruel sport. It’s the only game where you can perform fairly well but

still lose because you did not m eet expecta­tions.

Dick DeVos, during the th irdgubernato­rialdebate, was the victim of his own

success.Gov. Jenn ifer Granholm

was the clear victor in the first debate. DeVos did so much b e tte r in the second debate that coming into the final confrontation, he was expected to do even better, especially since he needed to cut into her nine-point

T imSkubick

lead in the polls.The challenger had his

moments. His team was e la t­ed that he “controlled the agenda.” He was right on the money as he kept ham­mering Granholm on being in office four years but get­ting no results. He even pulled off a pretty good ad lib about the governor's lack of business experience and “never putting her name on the front of a check.”

However, there were four specific areas that he could have muscled her into the corner, but instead left her dancing m errily in the cen­te r of the ring.

Issue one: higher educa­tion.

The governor told a col­lege student in the town hall section of the debate that the state needs to spend

more on higher education, and she boasted about her Merit Scholarship program.

DeVos did assert that on her watch, tuitions have sky­rocketed 50 percent but then he missed the chance to nail her with, “The gover­nor talks a good game* but , in the first year of her administration, she actually cut higher ed based on what the .citizens told her. But the citizens were wrong, and now she knows it.”

Issue two: single business tax solutions.

The governor continues to get away with m urder tout­ing her SBT plan that does riot fill the SBT budget hole.

DeVos still hasn’t called her on it. He should have said, “Governor, your so- called plan reduces the rate of the SBT. The problem is, we don’t need a rate reduc­

tion. We. need a total s replacement. Vour solution doesn’t match the problem.”

Issue three: revenue shar­ing.

The governor warns that if DeVos has his way, revenue sharing will be cut even more. What he could have said is, “Governor, you boast about wanting to help Detroit and inner cities, but when House Republicans offered a 2 percent increase in revenue sharing, you killed it. You can’t say one thing and do another.”

Issue four: The two got into a discussion of K-12 school funding and the prop­erty tax Issue was raised.

DeVos fluffed a golden opportunity to rem ind vot­ers tha t four years ago, then- candidate Jennifer Granholm promised to “tweak Proposal A.”

to shrink because of increased wages is deluded. On the o ther hand, don’t expect as much growth from new positions, e ither.

“Where’s your tweaker?” he could have confronted her. And this would have amplified his message that she is ail talk and no action.

Those were four chances to put Granholm away dur­ing the debate. Four chances missed. How come?

First, it is pretty clear DeVos is not a student of state government and, there­fore, is at a distinct disad­vantage because the gover­nor is. So either he knew

about those retorts and for­got to whip them out, or he never knew about them in the first place. If that was the case, during debate prep it was someone’s assignment to get him up to speed.

Just another cruel thing about politics: You can sometimes lose not on what you say, but what you didn’t say.

Three Home FB Games LeftPaid Advertisement

, After finally playing its second home game of the season, a 17- 13 come-from-behind Mid-American Conference win over a vis­iting Toledo team in the annual Homecoming game Oct. 21, the Eastern Michigan University football team will now play three of its final five games as home contests.

The Eagles return to Rynearson Stadium to square off with MAC rival Ohio Saturday, Nov. 4, in a 1 p.m. Band Day celebra­tion. The Ohio Bobcats are in the hunt for a MAC East Division title so the battle on the gridiron will be a fierce one. The EMU- Ohipgame is the annual Band Day in Ypsilariti with more than 20 ugh school bands joining the EMU Marching Eagles in pre and post-game concerts.

From there the Eagles stay in the home mode With a Saturday, Nov; 11, game against Navy. That contest has been designated as a home game for the Green and White but it will be contested at 1 p.m. in Ford Field in Detroit, the home of the Detroit Lions of the National Football League. The EMU band will be joined by the Naval Academy’s marching band and the date is Veteran’s Day, with the nation’s armed forces veterans being honored at the game.

Eastern will close out its 2006 season with the annual Senior Day, set for Friday, Nov. 24, at 1 p.m. against Northern Illinois in Rynearson Stadium. That game is the day after Thanksgiving and there will be plenty of special events to highlight the unusual game day.

The Eagles will say farewell to an outstanding group of eight seniors at that NIU game. Wide receiver Eric Deslauriers, offen­sive lineman Courtney Ford, defensive lineman Kevin Howe, offensive lineman Kevin Minor, tight end R.J- Montemayor, line­backer Michael Richardson, wide receiver and kick return spe­cialist Truiriaine Riley and place-kicker Andrew Wellock have all made major contributions to the EMU football program and will be very difficult to replace.

More details ,on all of the football team’s home games along with ticket information and game-day festivities scheduled will be detailed on the EMU athletics website at www.emueagles.com or on the football-only website at www.emueaglesfootbaH.com.

GOVERNOR’S RACE 2 0 0 6 : CA NDIDA TES A N SW ER THE TOUGH Q UESTIO N S

DEBATEContinued from Page i-A

where in the world, chose to create 1,000 jobs in Michigan because of the quality of our workforce.

The Google announcement is so important because it cre­ated a buzz in the technology community. Already, we are receiving more inquiries from other high-tech executives who are saying to themselves, “Hey, if Google is investing in Michigan, maybe we should be, too!”

I am fighting to make Michigan an alternative ener­gy powerhouse by signing tax credits for alternative energy production facilities. United Solar Ovonic is building a massive solar power manu­facturing facility in Greenville; Nine ethanol or biodiesel plants will soon be operating in Michigan, with the help of state tax incen-: tives. At the same time, we’re building the demand for alternative fiiels in Michigan by cutting taxes on ethanol and giving gas stations finan-' cial incentives to install ethanol gas pumps. The entire state had only five ethanol pumps at the begin­ning of this year, my goal is to have 1,000 biofuel pumps by 2008.

Local government budgets are hurting, and we need to ensure that they have the state revenue they need to ftind police, fire and other vital services. While revenue sharing has been held harm­less for the past two years, we need to increase funds to our local governments.

This year, my Task Force on Local Government Services and Fiscal Stability, consist­ing of representatives from

"cities, counties, and town­ships from around the state, evaluated existing policies that are problematic for local units of government and rec­ommended new policies that will enable to them to contin­ue to deliver essential servic­es. We need this input from our municipal leaders, espe­cially because of next year’s sunset of file revenue sharing act.

We face a new challenge now that the Legislature has repealed the Single Business Tax without a plan to protect the $1.9 billion it provided to fund vital services like police and fire protection. This repeal may jeopardize vital revenue sharing dollars and shift the tax burden to our communities instead. As gov­ernor, I will fight to make sure that this funding is pro­tected.

DeVos: Revenue sharing is a very important source of funding for local governments and critical to their ability to adequately fUnd essential services.

Unfortunately, revenue sharing for Michigan commu­nities has been cut or frozen for each of the past three years under Gov. Granholm.As governor, I will support an extension of revenue sharing with the understanding that we must first take steps to rejuvenate Michigan’s strug­gling economy in order to provide increased funding. Money is tight right now in Michigan; when critical serv­ices fight over a smaller and smaller piece of the state budget pie, no one wins.

We must focus our efforts on climbing out of our single­state recession, bringing jobs back to Michigan, and turning the economy around. A DeVos administration will revive our economy and work together to provide local gov­ernments with the revenue

“Unfortunately, revenue' ‘ ' , 1

sharing for Michigan communities has been cut or frozen for each of the past three years under Gov. Granholm. As governor, I will support an extension of revenue sharing with the understanding that we must first take steps to rejuvenate Michigan’s struggling economy in order to provide increased funding.”Dick DeVos

they require.Central to increased fund­

ing is improvement of Michigan’s business climate. New economic growth will increase state and local revenues at the same time. In order to achieve this growth, we must do away with

den of additional taxes on Michigan families;

Also, l have already identi­fied $800.million in waste and fraud that the state can cut out of its budget without harming education, health care, etc. That includes requiring a four-year time

tape that strangle Michigan businesses. The repeal of the SBT is a start, but Michigan’s tax climate is still not compet­itive with states that are see­ing economic growth. As gov­ernor, I will work to reduce taxes and make state govern­ment work with Michigan businesses to promote the job growth our state so desperate­ly needs.

H ow would you replace the revenue lost with the repeal o f the Single B usiness Tfcx?

Granholm: The Republican Legislature took the irrespon­sible way out and has simply eliminated the Single Business Tax without first coming up with a plan. By doing so, they created a $1,9billion hole in the state budg­et, which represents 20 per­cent of our general fUnd rev­enues. It is telling that a Wall Street credit agency down­graded Michigan’s credit rat-, ing immediately after the Republicans voted to elimi­nate the SBT without a plan to protect the vital revenue it provides.

While I agree that the Single Business Tax must be repealed, I will not stand by and watch the tax shifted on to the backs of Michigan tax­payers. I want a guarantee from Republicans that no plan to replace the revenue from the business tax will increase taxes for citizens or slash funding for health care, education, or public safety.

I have proposed a plan to eliminate the Single Business Tax as we know it by lowering the tax rate, simplifying the tax and making it less payroll sensitive. My plan calls for a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 1.9 percent to 1.2 percent. It creates a manufac­turing and research-and- development personal prop­erty tax credit to help our manufacturers and draw new high-tech companies to Michigan. It eliminates loop­holes that allow some busi­ness to avoid the tax. I am the only candidate for governor who has put a plan to replace the SBT oh the table.

DeVos: First, getting rid of the SBT will help to create jobs, which will actually help the budget. Second, I will replace the majority of the revenue with a broad-based business tax. Like other states, it will be centered on business profits and gross receipts. Simple and fa ir— it won’t punish job creation. If you make more, you will pay more. I will not place the bur-

save $80 million the first year alone. The governor has opposed this measure and Michigan is one of only two states in the nation without a limit.

, i

How big a deterrent is M ichigan’s business tax to investm ent and job cre­ation?

Granholm: Michigan’s busi­ness tax burden is currently the 13th lowest in the coun­try, according to the Council on State Taxation. I am con­stantly trying to make our business tax structure even more competitive. I've signed 71 targeted business tax cuts since taking office, including a massive $600million cut to encourage our manufactur­ers to in-source jobs toMichigan. Republicans who try to claim that the state’s business taxes are the reason why our economy is strug­gling are playing loose with the truth.

In August, the non-partisan Upjohn Institute for Employment Research issued a detailed study, which showed that Michigan’s busi­ness taxes had very little impact on job creation.

Michigan’s economy is hurt­ing because we have a much higher concentration of auto­motive jobs than any other state, and when that industry is struggling with unfair for­eign competition, the entire state struggles.

Bill Gates says that high- tech companies like his don’t choose locations because of taxes— they choose places that have the most talented work force. That’s why Google’s decision to set up camp in Michigan is such good news. It shows the world that we have the talented work force to compete with anyone in the world.

I will continue to invest in education to make sure Michigan draws the jobs of the 21st century.

DeVos: Michigan’s business taxes create a significant deterrent to job creation.The governor claims taxes don’t matter. But if you look back over the past year, every major job creation announce­ment was made in part because tax incentives were offered to job providers. In fact, nationwide CEOs ranked Michigan 49th in a survey of the best states to do business.

The truth is that Michigan is uncompetitive in part

because it is a high tax state; so high, that we must offer tax rebates for businesses to locate here and create new jobs. In order to become more competitive, we must create a jobs friendly busi- ness climate.

I believe rather than offer- ing huge tax rebates to one . company to create 1,000 new jobs, we must create a com­petitive environment in which 1,000 businesses can each add one job. Instead of Band-Aid approaches to job creation, we need a funda­mental change that makes Michigan competitive once again. A healthy economy is one in .which all job providers have the ability to grow their business without tax incen­tives from state government.

I f M ichigan’s business taxes are the 13th low est in the nation, why do we con­stantly hear that high taxes in M ichigan are a problem in attracting new business­es?

Granholm: It’s politics. No one likes-paying-taxes— no matter how competitive they are with the rest of the coun­try. The Republicans are try­ing to make business taxes an issuefor voters, but I don’t thinkat is going to work. M ichsanians understand that our state won’t be an attrac­tive place for businesses to invest if we slash our invest ments in education, infra­structure, health care find public safety.

The underlying economic problem that we are facing is that at times our workers are competing against low-wage Workers in Mexico and China. This has nothing to do with our tax climate and every­thing to do with unfair trade barriers that are hurting our workers and the Bush admin­istration’s refhsal to stand up

for Michigan businesses.DeVos: Make no mistake,

Michigan business taxes are not 13th lowest in the nation. According to a study, done by the New York Public Policy Institute, Michigan actually has the fifth highest business tax burden in the country.

A nationwide CEO survey ranked Michigan 49th in a survey of best states in which to do business. The facts are clear to me: Study after study confirms that taxes matter, and that Michigan taxes are too high.

Michigan manufacturers have to suffer under the third highest personal property taxes in the nation. Combine this with the fact that other Midwest states have gotten rid of the PPT and are pro­moting reformed business tax structures, and Michigan is clearly missing the boat.

What we’ve been doing for the last four years hasn’t been working. We are clearly not competitive with other states, and we’re suffering job losses because of it.

Unfortunately, the current governor promised to give help for Michigan small busi-

'nessrB utinsteadrshe pro-— posed $2 billion in tax increases. Today, only 4 per­cent of Michigan small busi­nesses describe the state’s cli­mate as “supportive.” If they can go across the border to other states with lower taxes and fewer regulations, why wouldn’t they? Michigan is in desperate need of a change.

Does M ichigan give away too m uch or too little when it com es to incentives to lure business?

Granholm: I will go any­

where and do anything to bring jobs to Michigan. Targeted tax incentives are a valuable economic develop­ment tool. We have offered tax incentives to help our manufacturers stay in Michigan and draw new busi­nesses here. My administra­tion will work with specific companies to develop specific tax incentives on a case-by­case basis to make sure we remain competitive with other states who are doing the same thing.

But there is much more to economic development than

-tax incentives. Businesses are investing in Michigan because of our low business taxes, our excellent universi­ties and our highly trained, experienced work force.

GOVERNOR’S RAGE 2 0 0 6 : CANDIDATES ANSW ER THE TOUGH Q UESTIO NS

i \

DEBATEContinued from Page 13'A

DeVos: The fundamental problem with the state giv­ing away tax incentives is that it requires state govern­ment to pick winners and losers. Historically, govern­ment has not been good at predicting which businesses will succeed and which will fail — or which will create jobs and which will not.

And what are we telling small businesses that do not receive these tax breaks? That we don’t care about the jobs they provide? I believe we must work to create a business climate that treats all businesses fairly and brings more jobs to Michigan.

These tax abatements have been the foundation of the current governor’s eco­nomic plan, but they will not be the foundation of mine, I will work to make Michigan's overall tax structure compet­itive again. However, I

-understand thafMichigan— cannot unilaterally disarm. I will use abatements where necessary to assure that Michigan offers a competi­tive location option for busi­nesses that will contribute jobs and long-term growth to our economy,

We hear all the tim e about attracting new busi­ness* but what can be done to protect ex istin g busi­nesses?

Granholm: Most important­ly, Michigan needs a tiger in Washington enforcing trade agreements.

Unfortunately, right now we have a pussycat. China is m anipulating its currency and stealing our patents, and South Korea is setting

up barriersthatlceep —-Michigan products out of their country. These dre all in violation of trade agree­ments, but the Bush admin­istration just sits back and watches. Our manufacturers need new leadership in Washington.

I am fighting to give all businesses the tools they need to thrive in Michigan. We are constantly making our business climate friend­lier by keeping taxes low and streamlining the state bureaucracy, When neces­sary, I am offering our employers targeted tax incentives to make it easier for them.to keep jobs in Michigan.

My Buy Michigan First program is insourcing jobs to Michigan by requiring state government contracts to go to Michigan businesses whenever possible. Now, more than 85 percent of state contracts go to Michigan businesses, pump­ing billions of dollars back into our economy.

Our businesses need a national solution to rising health care costs, but I have signed tax cuts to make it easier and cheaper for busi­nesses to provide health

. care benefits for their employees. My Michigan ' First health care plan will make it even more afford­able for businesses to offer benefits to their employees.

At the same time, we are making sure Michigan work­ers have the skills that our businesses need. My MI Opportunity Partnership is working with businesses to

provide funding to give workers the training they need to fill job vacancies that are open today. In its first year of operation, the partnership has already con­nected more than 107,000 with new jobs.

DeVos: I truly believe that the best customer is the cus­tomer you have. We must fight to keep our Michigan businesses from leaving and choosing other states.

Unfortunately, what we’re doing now isn’t keeping them here; too many are leaving and taking jobs with them. As governor,Twill provide results to improve our business environment and to give our job providers a reason to choose Michigan. My administration will work to overhaul our tax struc­ture, reduce the cost of health care, bring our expensive energy costs under control and dram ati­cally improve a burdensome, sluggish bureaucracy.

While it is important to“attract new businesses to Michigan that are looking to create thousands of jobs, I believe it is equally impor­tant to have an environment where 1,000 Michigan busi­nesses can each add one job. Michigan businesses must have a reason to grow in Michigan. As governor, I will give them that reason. My administration will fight to give Michigan a competi­tive advantage that keeps companies and jobs from leaving our great State,

For more information, check out Mission No. 1 in my Michigan Turnaround Plan, where I outline my ideas on how to give Michigan small businesses a chance to succeed.

Government certainly plays a role in creating new jobs and attracting new businesses, so what can be done at the county, city or tow nship levels to help accom plish this?

Granholm: Efforts at the local level are crucial in attracting new businesses and creating jobs for our cit­izens. I have worked with local officials to make sure that we are doing everything we can to foster a climate that encourages investments from businesses, and to make sure that those invest­ments serve our people well.

We make sure to include Downtown Development Authorities, local Economic Development Corporations and any other applicable economic investment author­ities in creating economic

Brownfield incentives are helping bring real invest­ments into cities and towns across the state. My Cool Cities initiative is another way that I have worked to include local governments in the economic develop­ment process. The idea behind Cool Cities is that we can take basic steps to make our cities attractive, fun places to spend time, partic-

selves attract job providers who want to locate here.

Our skilled work force, world-class research univer­sities, tremendous health care infrastructure and spectacular natural resources are all strengths Michigan can build on.These are the unique char­acteristics of a great state that is just waiting to fulfill • its potential.

As governor, I will give businesses an opportunity to thrive and grow. I will streamline and simplify state government in order to make Michigan friendly to job providers.

SCHOOLSCharter schools vs. public

schools — give your opinion and which you would sup­port?

Granholm: Charter schools are public schools. I don’t think there needs to be a “versus.” I support any schools that are helping our kids learn and giving them the tools they need to com­pete in a 21st century econo­my. Some children respond

tions. The projects them­selves often create jobs in the short term, and they help create a climate that entices employers and employees alike to our great cities. :

DeVos: Providing for the future success of Michigan's local governments is an issue of great importance. Creating a more equitable distribution of revenue shar-. ing will play a significant role in this mission. In order to provide more shared revenues, we must take the necessary steps to turn Michigan’s economy around.

Whether you live in a township, a city, or a village, a healthy economy trans­lates into healthy communi­ties that can provide jobs, good roads, strong schools and other critical services for their residents. As gov- • ernor, I will make this turn­around my first priority.

What can be done out­side of governm ent to attract business?

Granholm: We’ve seen that economic development can snowball when you have a

I’m working to leverage our automotive expertise to make Michigan the world­wide hub for manufacturing research and development. It’s why we’re investing in life sciences research, which has huge potential for Michigan because of our top- notch universities. And it’s why I’ve been putting such a focus on alternative energy development through my 21st Century Jobs Fund and other government incentives.

Michigan put the world on wheels, we lead the world in various agriculture research and we can be the state that ends America’s independ­ence on foreign oil.

At the same time, we need a vibrant venture capital eornmunity in Michigan tc invest in growing businesses. That’s why our Venture Michigan fund is so innova­tive. It has raised $200 mil­lion from outside investors to put into venture capital firms that will invest in Michigan businesses. These private companies will do the investing, but state gov­ernm ent is helping provide some of the capital.

DeVos: I believe that some­times the best thing govern- . ment can do is to get out of the way. State government must not over- regulate and overburden the many strengths Michigan already has. Our sta te’s unique char­acteristics will by them-

better in non-traditionaf learning environments. For example, I helped create a partnership with Apple Computers and a Detroit high school to make laptops, digi­tal cameras and even iPods a part of the curriculum . I fought for and won funding to create several small high schools designed to prepare students for careers in vari­ous health-related fields. I also signed legislation to allow parents to choose sin­gle-sex schools for their kids.

The tru th is, we need to invest more in our schools and expect more of our schools in order to give par­ents and students good options to chose from. T hat’s why I have provided more state funding for K-12 edu­cation than any governor in

M ichigan’s h isto ry while establish ing some of the most rigorous school stan­dards in the nation. By ade­quately funding our public schools, estab lish ing high standards and continuing to explore innovative options

for improving the quality of our schools, we can make sure that Michigan provides educational opportun ities that p rep a re our ch ild ren for the 21st century economy and for life.

DeVos: M ichigan m ustensure a quality education for all children. This means providing p roper funding and resources, and equ ip ­ping Michigan’s great teach ­ers w ith the tra in ing and support they need to p re ­pare our students for suc­cess. Both ch arte r public schools and traditional p ub ­lic schools can play a signify cant role in this process. I believe providing m ore a lternatives for studen ts will be a vital component of bringing change to a trou-. bled education system. We must make certain that all parents have the opportuni­ty to decide what education environm ent is best for the ir kids, and at a ,minimum pro­vide them with sound options within the trad ition ­al public schools as well as the charter public schools. While each district is unique in its makeup and its chal­lenges. and charter schoolswill not be the solution in each and every community, I believe they have proven an effective tool in providing more educational opportu­nities to Michigan students.

As Michigan moves in to the most rigorous m erit exam curricu lum in the nation, how do you strength­en our Michigan schools?

Granholm: As governor, I have m ade education a top priority. I have spent more money on K-12 education than any o ther governor in history, desp ite having to resolve re c o rd . budget deficits left by the previous adm inistration- My G reat P aren ts, G reat S ta rt In itia tive and my E arly Childhood Investm ent Corporation are revolution­izing early childhood educa- tion in Michigan — provid­ing parents and caretakers with the tools and resources they need to get our ch il­dren p repared for school.

In today’s evei>changing world, being prepared for an emergency is serious business. In fact, it could be a matter of life and death.

Turn on the television or radio and there seems to be news somewhere of a disaster or catastrophe — hurricanes, floods', tornadoes, blizzards, terrorist acts, railroad or high- way disasters, chemical plant f ire s- ju s t to name a few,

Being prepared and arming one self with information is the best defense against these emergencies and the Chelsea District Library is doing what it can to help. Dexter Township residents Jeff Cowall and Diana Hunt, both amateur radio operators and Skywarn spotters for the Weather Service, will host, a workshop called, “Disasters Happen: How to Prepare Yourself and Your Family,” at the library oh Saturday.

“We hope to encourage peo­ple to get together and learn basic ‘how to help yourself skills,” Cowall said. “Beyond that, there’s an absolute wealth of opportunities out there to learn skills that could be use- M ”

A longtime radio ham opera­tor,Cowall earned his amateur radio license in 1988.

“This brought me back to the communications dreams of my youth, but now I had the means, skills and certification to really get into it,” he said. ‘Tve always lived in Michigan, and we’ve always had bad weather, from tornadoes to blizzards, so Skywarn training

"Then in the early 90s a tor­nado hit Oakland County, and I was stationed outside of Rochester High School for a couple of days with a Red Cross team, and it became quite real.”

Although Cowall has never seen a tornado, he’s seen first­hand the damage they can cause.

“Sometimes during a storm, the county asks trained spot­ters to verify a reported sight­ing by the public, and most of the time, it’s Something scary looking, like a rain shaft or scud clouds, but it’s not a fun- nel,” he said.

A member and officer of the Chelsea Amateur Radio Club, Cowall is a trained volunteer with the Washtenaw County Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) and the state/county Radio Amateur Civilian Emergency Service (RACES), where he serves as assistant emergency coordina­to r

He also is a member of the Washtenaw County Winter Emergency Drive Team and holds many certifications from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, includ­ing citizen preparedness, radi­ological emergency manage- rfient, introduction to haz­ardous materials and National Response Plan (NRP).

When his son, Michael, start­ed in Boy Scouts, Cowall served as a Cub Scout, 'Boy Scout and Venturing Crewleader for more than a decade,preaching the need to be pre­pared. v"

“It all started to mesh,” he said. “Selif-relienoe and com­

munity service go hand-in- handr it_seems, and them ore skills the Scouts learned, the more they enjoyed helping the community. .

“In Scouts, as an adult leader, I learned many skills I never thought about before, not only the classic Scout skills of knives, fires and first aid, but also adults working together to serve the kids and the commu­nity.”

According to Hunt, many people ignore the importance to prepare for emergencies or disasters.

“There are so many things to take care of, and the probabili­ty of emergency seems so low, that this topic readily drops to the bottom of the priority list,” said Hunt, who first got involved in disaster prepared­ness as a fifth-grade student, assembling care packages for U .S. servicemen in Korea.

She later became an

“Growing up in the shadow of the bomb, with air-raid drills and post-Apocalypse science fiction persuading me that the end of civilization as we know it was imminent, I set out to learn as much as possible so I could be useful to people if it really happened,” she said.

Hunt attended Antioch College in Ohio, where she trained as a firefighter with the student-run fire and rescue service, taught first aid and CPR, and organized disaster drills.

CPR instructor, a basic-level paramedic in Denver and spent two years as an EMT in a hospital emergency room.

Since returning to the Chelsea area, she has had fur­ther training in first aid and CPR; served on the facility Emergency Preparedness team at Unisys Corp. in Plymouth, where she helped set up mid document the com­pany’s emergency manage­ment plan, and served as a Skywarn spotter. She also has served on Red Cross Disaster Action Teams and made Community DisasterEducation presentations. .

Saturday’s workshop will include information for those interested in pursuing the subject in greater detail. “Some might even be interest­ed in careers as first^respon- ders or as emergency man­agers,” Hunt said.

The pair hopes to offer future workshops to provide residents and businesses with information on disaster plan­ning in more detail, as well as first aid and CPR, FEMA’s Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) pro­gram and a School Emergency Response Team (SERT) pro­gram, developed by Eastern Michigan University. Brief overviews on these will be given in the presentation.

Long ago, in a faraway land called Arizona, a Motorola engineer wrote me to say he was working on an exciting new technol­ogy with the exotic nam e of Bluetooth.

It was the next g reat thing, and it was just around the corner, he said. Bluetooth was to be a short- range wireless technology tha t would allow cell phones to talk to computers, enable PDAs to link to p rin te rs and let music play­ers power stereo head ­phones’.

So many devices would be connected to each o ther > tha t it would create a little cloud of networked gadgets tha t followed us every­where we went — a person­al-area network..

One of a kindMichigan opens new Rachel Upjohn Building

ANN ARBOR - A stunning new home for research and care aimed at helping people ■ with depression, bipolar dis­order and other psychiatric illnesses has opened at the University o f Michigan. It may be the first of its kind in the'world.

Last week, the first patients entered, the new S4Lm iilion ' Rachel Upjohn Building on the U-M Health System’s east medical campus, for their, appointments with U-M spe­cialists who treat adults and children for everything from depression and bipolar disor­der (also called manic depression) to alcoholism and -obsessive-compulsive' disorder.

Tomorrow: the U-MDepression Center’s national and scientific advisory

/boards w ill meet in the bu ild ­ing's conference center, to plan strategy for the Center's

~ effort T<I 'efUati?..a “national 'network of centers focused on' depression and b ipolar disorder. The . Depression Center was founded in 2001

■'as- the firs t o f its kind in the nation, and now makes its home in the Upjohn Building - along with many o f the treat­ment and research personnel of the U-M Medical School's Department o f Psychiatry and faculty members from an array o f other schools across the, university. Over the com1 ing .weeks, many of the U-M's psychiatry and addiction spe­cialists w ill move their, pro­grams to the building.

There, they w ill b.e able to cooperate on research like never before, and. conduct' clin ica l tria ls w ith the help of volunteers from the commu­nity. The U-M— Add ic tion .

construction, team led by Devon Industrial Group. Private donations, funds from the financial reserves of the U-M Health System, and a $4 million grant from the National Institute of Health’s National Center for Research Resources paid for the build­ing’s construction.The three-story building has a glass-enclosed entrance lobby, an atrium topped by a massive skylight, and a fear facade made entirely of sheet glass - all designed to bring light into the building throughout the day. The loiver level features a 120-

Treatment Service will also move to the building, bring­ing it physically closer to the Depression Center and enabling new studies of the co-occurrence of these prob­lems. Many faculty members will also continue; to-work in research laboratories in other areas of the main med­ical cainpus.

The general public will be able to see the building, and learn about all that will take place— within— its 1112.500 square feet, at a free open house on Sunday, Nov. 12 from 1 to 4 p.m, More infor­mation is available ait www.depressioncenter.org.

Already, the Rachel Upjohn Building is living up to its original vision of being a place where patients can find hope, researchers can find answers, clinicians can provide improved treat­ments, and the broader com­munity can learn more about how these common illnesses impact society, says John Greden, M.D., chair of the Department of Psychiatry and executive director of the Depression Center.“The building itself was designed to be full of light and comfort, but even more importantly, to generate new knowledge. new break­throughs, and even new pre­ventive strategies,” Greden said. “Even in these early days, we can see that happen­ing,” ;

The Upjohn Building was designed by architects at Albert Kahn*-Associates and. built in exactly two years by a

seat auditorium and suite of meeting rooms, and opens onto a patio that faces a small forest

Separate clinical areas for children and adolescents, adults; and substance-abuse patients make up most of the first floor, with 335 offices and outpatient treatment rooms where psychiatrists; psychologists, social workers, nurses, and some primary care clinicians can meet with and treat patients and fami­lies.

The first-floor also atrium houses a, patient and visitor education and resource cen­ter funded by the Friends of the University of Michigan Hospitals and Health Centers volunteer group. U-M providers will also be able to provide their expertise to patients around the state of Michigan and beyond, using two. telemedicine rooms. The second floor - Depression Center research space - is devoted entirely to research of depression, bipo-1 lar and related illnesses, with laboratories, offices and open areas called “collabora- tories” where researches can gather informally to exchange ideas. Soon, a Sleep & Chronophysiology Laboratory will open, with six beds for overnight sleep studies. '

phone’s Bluetooth, the head­phones link to the phone.

When I get into my car, the phone links to my Bluetooth hands-free kit. At the begin­ning of my test of the two wireless products, I was d is - . appointed that I d idn’t see a microphone pn the headset.I thought it would be great ifI could make and receive phone calls as well as listen to tunes. As it turns out, I can. T here’s a microphone, and it’s nearly invisible.

When the phone rings, one tap of the headset mutes the music and answers the call

I ’m impressed by both of these gadgets, although nei­ther is perfect. Perhaps pay­ing attention to the success of the stylish iPod and Razr phone, both manufacturers have emphasized aesthetics. Hidden controls have a trade-off in terms of ease of use.

The headphone controls are built into the round outer plates of the earpiece, where they’re easily, unin^= tentionally bumped. More than once, I’ve had music interrupted because I’ve accidentally activated the phone’s voice-dialing fea­ture.

The BT 620s is a good headset with several com­petitors. I don’t know how it compares with the others, but I’ve been impressed with it. The Chocolate also has a couple of shortcomings.First, its music player isn’t very intuitive. It’s controlled in some cases by buttons on the side of the phone. In other cases, it’s the circular control on the faceplate.After four days, I- think I have it figured out.

The touch-sensitive con­trols on the face of the phone have no moving-partsr { B It’s easy to accidentally touch the wrong control. I have fewer misfires than I did the first day,

Guest column! By Rose Bogaert

State spending out of controlBy Rose B ogaertSpecial Writer

On July 10 ,1 was among a group of people in Lansing who happily tu rn ed more than 500,000 signatures in support o f the Stop O verspending Proposal to am end the Michigan Constitution. :

While it’s true tha t many found the e lim ina tion o f pensions for our term -lim it­ed Legislature very a ttrac­tive, the rea l m eat of the proposal is the affirm ation of the principle th a t voters should be in control of state spending.

SOS does not cu t sta te spending by one penny. What it does is lim it future increases to the ra te of inflation and popu lation growth. We a re not radicals, and we do not believe th a t Michigan voters a re too dumb to m ake econom ic and political decisions as others imply.

SOS makes no attem pt to micromanage budgets. That is th e jo tro f o u r e lected offi­cials, Ju st like we must live w ithin our m eans, we expect government to live within our means and the lim its we set. If they are unable to do that, they m ust come to the voters to justify the need for an increase.

Since 1978, w hen th e H eadlee A m endm ent pu t lim its in the. Michigan Constitution, leg islators, judges, lawyers, s ta te and local politicians have found or invented ways to get around those limits.

SOS closes those loop­holes and forces e lected officials to prioritize spend­ing and cut out the waste. SOS is custom m ade to fit our objectives. It’s our ver­sion of Colorado’s Taxpayer

ill of Rights a fte r which it was modeled.

Unlike Colorado, there is no ratcheting back of rev­enue during a recession .

Provisions have . been included to ensure that 50 percen t of any excess rev­enue is placed in a rainy day fund; the other 50 per­cent will be returned to the taxpayers on a pro-rata basis.

Spending in Michigan is out of control. Between 1990 and 2004, raw spending increased 127 percent. We were dead last in job cre­ation and lost more than45,000 jobs. Talented people are leaving this state to find jobs elsewhere. We hope to help change that by getting SOS language into the con­stitution.

In the decade after TABOR passed itl Colorado, th e s ta te ’s job growth dou­bled the ra te of the previous 10 years. In 1992, it was ranked 15th in gross sta te product p e r capita. By 2003, it’s rating improved to 10th despite a nationwide reces­sion.

W ithout TABOR,Colorado’s budget deficit

larger. During the period from 1997 to 2001, taxpayers received $3.2 - b illion in rebates, which averaged to $3,200 for a family of four.

Before TABOR, Colorado ranked 43 in economic growth. In 2005 it was ranked seventh.

Even though they did not have provisions for reces­sion, like the Michigan ver­sion does, it worked. When asked, the voters chose to suspend the lim it for five years, as. was th e ir right.

If you look a t those opposed to SOS, you will see that they are 'made up pre­dom inately of special in te r­est who are recip ients o f governm ent funds or con­tracts and those convinced by th e ir self-serving and deceptive arguments.

The Michigan Education A ssociation opposes SOS, but supports the K-16 pro­

posal that will give guaran­teed increases to education without accountability.

The Michigan League for Human Services, whose m ember organizations can never have enough money, have based their argum ents on m isinform ation about what happened in Colorado.

SOS is a positive move for Michigan and Michigan tax­payers; We invite you to help us make it happen. For a complete text of the pro­posed am endm ent to th e constitu tion and o ther in teresting inform ation,

“Also many of our girls don’t s ta rt playing tennis until they get to JV» so we only have a couple years to teach them the basics and get them ready for varsity play.”

Leading Chelsea was senior Brendan Smith who finished aixth in 16:11. With his performance, Smith earned All-SEC honors for the Bulldogs. Despite finishing behind Dexter’s top five, Smith’s tim e was good enough to win the SEC Red Division m eet if he would have raced in that.

Pieske said the playing conditions were cfiffkmlh at best.

“The field was borderline unplayable,” he said. “We traveled to Jackson Northwest to find a field that had more mud and w ater than it did grass. It made for an ugly game of soccer.

“It was difficult for us to play oiir game as we rely on the short passing and the control of the middle. Every pass stopped short as it hit

“Now we’re in the playoffs and it’s a new season. Being in close games, we’ve been able to find ways to win.”

Bush said, to be successful in the playoffs his squad would have to improve.

“We need to do a better job of tackling,” he said. “And our execution on offense has been sloppy.”Freshman Football

“The kids showed a lot by coding back and playing hard in the second half,” said Chelsea coach Dennis Strzyzewski. “They could have mailed it in and just given up, but they chose to come out and compete. l am proud of them.

Pedlow said he has a lot of fond memories from his first season as Bulldog girls’ ten­nis coach.

“From winning our district title and winning seven of eight flights, to going to states, the season went very well,” he said. “I will miss this year’s seniors. I am los­ing seven seniors and this year’s group was very athlet­ic and competitive. They will definitely be missed.

“I look to the juniors who made varsity to lead the pro­gram for next year.”

Series, the roar at Comerica Park could be heard all the way up the Detroit River, past Grosse lie and out into the chilly waters of Lake Erie.

W hen the country were even more Magglio excited. And for good reason. Ordonez The Tigers’ victory on b la s te d Saturday is a victory for a home baseball.run on Motown has proven you

— S-a-t-u r - can tu rn a "Clunker into~a~ day to Cadillac in a short amount of

time without having to knock off Fort Knox. Base-ball fans all . over were hit-ting their horns and burning rubber as the Tigers showed the base­ball world you don’t have to have George Steinbrenner’s pen to sign up a group of win­ners.

The Tigers aren’t afraid to spend money. They have the sixth highest payroll in theBut as loud and enthusi 1H me

astically as Tiger fans cele- American League at $83 mil- brated, baseball fans all over lion and signed some big fish

in recent free-agent pools, including Ivan Rod-riguez, Kenny Rogers and Todd Jones.

But spending wisely and spending wildly are two dif-

Five teams — the Yankees, Red Sox, Angels, White Sox and Mariners — have bigger payrolls. Only the Yankees made it to the postseason. And the A’s, the team the Tigers just swept, have the 11th lowest payroll in the American League at $62 mil­lion — that’s spending wisely, not wildly.

Major League Baseball has made a pitch in recent years to level the playing field with the introduction of revenue

sharing so teams in New York don't get all the cash at the expense of teams in Kansas City, Milwaukee and Detroit.

The results can be seen a quick~Iook at. the

World Series record book. No m atter who wins this year, baseball will have seven champions in the past, seven years from seven different cities. You can pitch parity better than that.

And it’s not the lucky seven. It’s the smart, savvy seven.

The Yankees’ massive $206.4 million payroll is more than double the Tigers. And all that greern was only good

enough for one victory in four games in the playoffs. No one in New York is going to remember the Yankees’ 96 wins and American League East championship. Fans in the Big Apple will only rem em ber the shock of losing to a Tiger team that d idn’t have a "Murder’s Row" or an AlLStar at every position.

And fans in Milwaukee, Washington, D.C., Tampa Bay and Kansas City also will remember. All through the fall and winter months, base­ball fans in these cities will ■ be chanting, "Tigers, Tigers, Tigers.'" Detroit proved you can turn a 43-119 record in 2003 to a trip to the World

Series in 2005.Kansas City lost 104 games

in 2004,106 in 2005 and 100 in2006. But in the spring you will hear chanty of "Royals, Royals, Royals" because of what the "Tigers, Tigers, Tigers" did. Kansas City has an even longer road, but the Tigers proved that the high­way is jammed with hope and heroes on ano ther chance power drive.

What’s the difference be­tween the hot dogs at Yan­kee Stadium and Comerica Park? They’re still cookin’ dogs at Comerica. And the smell is being savored all over baseball.

Detroit baseball: Sport that bindsothirig bonds Detroit like a successful baseball season.

Before this summer took off like a rocket, you had to be a little older to recognize that fact.

You had to rem em ber 1967, ’68 or ‘72. Or 1984 or ’87.

But not any longer.Looking around Comerica

Park on Saturday night, thousands and thousands of young children were catch­ing on to tha t little secret of Detrolt-area life. And then, . like nailing down a perfect argument, Magglio Ordonez stepped to the p late and sent a high; arching fly ball to left field that landed right on the head of a Tiger fan as more than 42,000 of his peers went absolutely nuts.

Game, set, m atch. It’s on to the World Series! 7

The Tigers had been so bad for so long coming into this season tha t they’d lost a whole generation of fans. Kids like my spn, who is 16, never witnessed a winning season, in Detroit.

Wings and the Pistons and some college ball, like Michigan football or Michigan State basketball. The Lions rem ain the city’s greatest tease,

The Tigers? They were worse than bad. They were nonexistent. 1

s e a s o n

But the worst of times bring out the best of times. A nd tdinct Tiger fans like me, th is year’s winners just bring back mem­ories of Detroit’s past greatness.

I rem em ber sit­ting, stunned, as I listened to the WJR broadcast of the final- day of 1967 against the California Angels. Dick McAuliffe, who had never hit into a double play all season long, ended the long summer by hitting into one. The Tigers were one of a handful of teams that could have — should have — won the ’67 American League pennant, only to end up just short as Boston took the title.

- Back then, there wa&only one winner in each league— no divisions, no wild cards. One big AL and one big NL, with the winners meeting in the World Series.

That format was last run in 1968, The Year of the

th a t n e a r miss ■ in ’67 and the race riots tha t destroyed Detroit and many other cities, the Tigers put together a magical year in ’68, No m atter what hap­pened, they were never out of a game. In fact, when they trailed , they were at the ir most dangerous.

It was a year a lot like this year.

Instead of

coming out of nowhere with big hits and home runs in the clutch, it was Gator back then, Gates Brown.

A young black star out of down­town Detroit

named Willie Horton played Magglio Ordonez’s role of cleanup hitter.

to take my word on this one —■ he’s no Mickey Stanley, who roam ed center for the

That is, until the World Series, when he switched positions and played short­stop. Maybe he and Carlos Guillen (shortstop playing first) ought to compare notes.

But the greatest parallel between the Tigers’ present and th e ir standouts of the past is the pure never-end­ing magic.

The magic of Craig Monroe slamming a key home run to snatch victory from the jaws of certain _ defeat, like Kirk Gibson used to do.

Or the magic of Brandon Inge’s trem endous play at th ird base, turning hits into

DETROIT — Kirk Gibson’s two hom ers in 1984 ... Mickey Lolich’s th ree wins in *68':.: Hank G reenberg’s hitting in ’45 ..V Goose Goslin’s clutch single in ’35 - each of the Tigers’ four previous world cham pionships had its magic moment, its signature hero.

1984 - Tigers 4, Padres I: Days before the 1984 season began, Sparky Anderson, never at a loss for words, boldly predicted, “The ’84 Tigers will be the best team Detroit has ever seen.” Forty games into the season, they were 35- Sand never looked back.

Alan Trammell was the World Series MVP, but it was his buddy, Kirk Gibson, who stole the show, belting a pa ir of dram atic homers in the decisive fifth game.

With the Tigers clinging to a 5-4 lead over the San Diego in the eighth inning of Game 5, Gibson belted a three-run hom er into the packed seats in the upper deck in right field at Tiger Stadium, pumping his fist in the a ir as he circled the bases while 51,901 frenzied fans scream ed at the top of the ir lungs.

My heart 'pumps so-fast. H hink I’m having-a heart-- . attack,” Willie Hernandez, the Tigers’ ste llar closer who captured both the American League MVP and Cy Young awards that year, adm itted after he had secured the final outs and touched off a night of pandemonium. “My dream comes true and I go blind."

Outside the jubilan t Tiger locker room, however, it was a different story as the fan’s unbridled joy quickly turned ugly. They flooded the field, ripping up grass and tearing out stadium signs and seats.

Those without tickets who had gathered on the streets, surrounding the stadium during the gamO, threw bottles, set fires and overturned vehicles. A police car was set ' ablaze — a photo that became as symbolic of the ’84 Series as the picture of Gibson, fists clenched high above his head, scream ing triumphantly.

By th e time police restored order, one person was dead, 80 had been injured and 42 people had been arrested .

It.was one of D etroit’s finest hours — and one of its worst.

1968 - Tigers 4, Cardinals 3: The ’68 Series will always be rem em bered for th ree things: Mickey Lolich’s th ree wins, including his Game 7 duel with Bob Gibson; Willie

-Horton gunning down Lou Brock in Game 5 a t home and Mayo Smith’s startling decision to play cen ter fielder Mickey Stanley at shortstop to make room in the lineup for A1 Kaline.

Lolich, who had labored in the shadow of 31-game win­ner Denny McLain all season, grabbed a win in Game 2 - even though he felt woozy after having a boil lanced before the game. > .

He won again in the do-or-die Game 5, even though a lengthy rendition of the national anthem by Jose Feliciano messed up his pregame routine. Then, working with just two days rest, Lolich out pitched the presumably unbeatable Gibson in the finale.

Brock, the Cardinals’ speedster, had studied the Tigers p itchers and was confident he could steal a t will.

But the Tigers had studied Brock, too. ’“We knew he always went in standing Up a t home, com­

ing from second base,” Horton la ter explained.When Brock tried it in Game 5, with the Cardinals lead­

ing 3-2, and on the brink of elim inating the Tigers, Horton gunned him down with a perfect throw to Bill Freehan, who effectively blocked the plate. .

“In retrospect,” F reehan recalled,, “from then on, every­thing went our way.”

Sm ith’s decision to start the athletic Stanley at short in place of the weak-hitting Ray Oyler caught everyone by surprise. But the Tigers had been secretly working on it for days.

The move made room in the lineup for Kaline, who bat­ted .379 in the only World Series of his career. And Stanley was credited with a Series-high 16 assists and only two errors, ne ither of which proved costly.

When th e Cardinals’ Tim McCarver popped up and the final out was nestled securely in F reehan’s glove, the

seem ed iost.But it wasn't. It never is

during these type of years.Take my word for it, the

magic moments in seasons like these, just keep going.

I watched Kenny Rogers pitch like a man possessed against the Yankees, and my first thought was; “God, he’s pulling a Frank Tanana.” Tanana, of course, pitched a 1-0 shutout against Toronto in 1987, clinching the AL East title.

The best part of 2006, however, may not be meas­ured in titles, but in recon­nects.

When Mickey Lolich threw out the celebratory first pitch during the ADDS, kids all around town had to be turning to their dads or. grandfathers and asking, “Who’s he?”

And the old men told the story of a lefthander who once captured D etroit’s h eart by winning th ree

, games in one World Series, the last against a guy nobody could beat, Bob -— Gibson.

Or when Al Kaline took the mound to toss out the first pitch, and my own son asked, “Dad, how good was he?’’ That one rea lly threw me. I finally ju s t said, “He

was thie best Tiger p layer in the last 50 years.”

And finally, the Tigers m ade my day Saturday not only by winning, but by bringing out George Kell, the old television voice of the Tigers. Most people my age grew up with Kell’s : laid-back Arkansas twang calling the games.

“Thanks Al, and good after­noon everybody. Game time temperature is 70 degrees .:. ”

Yes, this Tigers’ team has reconnected the present with the past in Detroit. As Kell stood outside the dugout before Saturday’s game, leaning on a cane, his old friend Kaline kept pop­ping out of the dugout — each time with another cur­ren t Tiger.

Manager Jim Leyiand, no young buck himself, gave Kell a big hug. Then came Granderson, the rookie, and Monroe, the young sta r in waiting, to shake the Hall of Fam er’s hand. Later came Inge, the present-day th ird baseman, to compare notes with Kelh the th ird base- man of the late ’40s.

So, knock on wdod, Detroit.M agical years like - this don 't come around every day, but they usually end in sim ilar fashion.

Tiger catcher’s only thought was, “Don’t drop th is one, dummy.”

1945 - Tigers 4, Cubs 3: Baseball purists still re fe r to it as the worst World Series ever played. And for a while, it appeared the ’45 Series might be canceled, a casualty of World War II.

The ’45 Tigers, like every o ther team in baseball, were a collection of kids too young to be drafted and veterans who were too old, along with those classified unfit for mil­itary service.

The ace of the pitching staff was future Hall of Fam er Hal Newhouser, who had been rejected by the Army Air Corps because of a heart m urm ur and who worked at night in a defense plant.

Bespectacled Dizzy Trout, who was classified 4F ^cau se of his poor-eyesight, joined Newhouser.Rudy York (old knee injury) played first; E ddie Mayo

and Skeeter Webb, both 35, form ed the m iddle of the infield; 36-year-old Paul Richards, out of the major leagues for eight years, was the catcher; and 46-year-old Doc Cram er roamed the outfield.

The closest thing the Tigers had to a star was Hank Greenberg, him self nearly 35 and just back in July after more than four years in the service, “I’m just glad to be back alive,” adm itted Greenberg.

In the World Series, Newhouser, working with only two days’ rest, bested the Cubs, 9-3, in the decisive Game 7 and Greenberg batted .304 with seven RBI.

But the ’45 Series is, perhaps, best rem em bered for Chuck Hostetler, a 42-year-old form er m inor league out­fielder who was. working in a Boeing p lant when the Tigers called.

Rounding third base with what would have been the Series-winning run in the seventh inning of Game 6, H ostetler fell flat on his face. He never played in another m ajor league game.

1940 - Reds, 4, Tigers 3: The Tigers returned to the World Series in ’40, and much o fth e credit for that belonged to W alter O. Briggs, who had purchased total ownership of the ballclub after Frank N avin’s death in 1935.

Over the objections of m anager Del Baker and general m anager Jack Zeller, Briggs had insisted on trading for journeym an p itcher Bobo Newsom in 1939.

The flaky Newsom refused to report until the Tigers paid him a $3,500 bonus to com pensate for the loss of his St. Louis radio show. When Zeller balked, Briggs in terced­ed and said, “We’re out to win the pennant and we can’t afford to have any discontented ballplayers on the d u b . Pay him $4,000i”

But Newsom paid big dividends in 1940, pitching the Tigers into the World Series with a 21-5 record.

Before the Series began, Newsom was asked whom he

thought should start Game 1.“Who else but Bobo?” he replied.Newsom won the opener, 7-2, but late that night, Bobo’s

father, who had traveled from South Carolina to watch his son pitch, suffered a heart attack and died in the Tigers’ C incinnati hotel.

Newsom buried his father, then whipped the Reds again, 8-0, at Briggs Stadium in Game 5. After the three-hit shutout, with tears in his eyes, Newsom declared, “I won one for dad.”

Called uppn to sta rt Game 7, with onlyonej|ay^s rest, the physically and em otionally-drainedT?ew sdm lost,2-l.

“I really wanted th is one,” the distraught Newsom said after the game.

“F o r your dad?” someone asked.“Naw,” Newsom replied. “I wanted th is one for Bobo.”

1935 - Tigers 4, Cubs 2; With Hank Greenberg (36 HR, 170 RBI) providing the power and Schoolbpy Rowe (19-13), Tommy Bridges (21-10) and E lden Auker (18-7) doing the

■r- -r- J-'v

pitching, the Tigers rolled into the World Series.And this time they d idn’t have to contend with Dizzy

Dean and the trash-talking Cardinals.When the Cubs tried to intim idate the Tigers with the ■

same tactics the Gas House Gang had employed the year before, com m issioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis ordered the verbal abuse stopped.

When Greenberg broke his wrist in a Game 2 home plate collision, cateher/m anager Mickey Cochrane pon­dered playing first base him self for the rem ainder of the Series.

But owner Frank Navin overruled him, ordering Cochrane to move Marv Owen to first and insert light-hit­ting F lea Clifton at third.

“If we lose the Series,” Navin said, " it’ll be on my head.” ‘

In Game 6, with the potential winning run perched on second base in the person of Cochrane, Goose Goslin, waiting on the top step o f th e dugout, turned to A uker and said, “I ’ve got a feeling we’re going to win the world cham­pionship this inning - and I ’m going to get the winning hit."

At the plate, Gosilin - who like Cochrane had been acquired in a fire sale a year e a rlie r when the W ashington Senators ran short of money - glanced back at the um pire and said, “If they p itch that ball over this plate, you can take that monkey su it off.”

Then Goslin smacked the first p itch to right-center field for a Series-winning single. Cochrane, who had won two ^ world cham pionships in Philadelphia, raced home with the winning run and jum ped up and down on home plate, as if to em phasize the point. “My greatest day ih base­ball!” he la ter called it.

Goslin, galloped off the field, straight into A uker’s arms. “D idn’t I tell you?” he shouted. “D idn’t I te ll you?”

The Tigers had won th e ir first world cham pionship.

her movie debutBy Jeny Wolfe

Journal Register News Service

Cheryl. Angelelli’s life has been an incredible journey, certainly worthy of a movie for anyone who doubts the resilience and beauty of the human soul.

In 1983, when Angelelli was 14, she dove into a swimming pool as instructed by her coach, and broke her neck.

Twenty-one years later, she was on a medal stand at the Paralympic Games in Athens, Greece, listening to the national anthem and over­whelmed with pride as two bronze medals were placed around her neck for swim­ming events., “Untold Dreams: TheCheryl Angelelli Story,” a documentary movie chroni­cling her life, prem iered at Andiamo’s Banquet Center in Warren. Jim Saliba of Burke Video in Troy produced the documentary.

s u 1 1 t o I k u•’ Pu/zli l>V •

Angelelli Works as director of marketing and public rela­tions.

She was inducted into the A thletes with Disabilities Hall of Fame in 2000, and was female athlete of the year in 2000 and 2003.

On Feb. 4, 1983, Angelelli was an up-and-coming swim­mer with Olympic dreams. Her swimming coach at the Macomb Marlins U.S.A. Swimming Club was having swimmers try a new diving start. He put a rope in front of the swimmers, who had to dive over it then enter the deep water at a sharper angle than normal.

”1 h it my forehead and was completely conscious the whole time,” Angelelli said. “I thought I !d have a nice goose egg on my head. I didn’t know I was hurt until I tried to take a stroke to get to the. top of the water.”

She says h e r teammates jum ped in and pulled her onto the deck of the pool,

said Angelelli, now 37. “Somehow in the back of my mind, I knew. About 24 hours later, doctors confirmed I had broken my spine and would be paralyzed.”

Angelelli went to the all­girls Regina Catholic School in Harper Woods, where her mother, Pat, helped her until she was pretty self-sufficient as a senior. She was self-con­scious as a teen.

“I suffered from anxiety and panic attacks,” she said. “I kept thinking about what is going to happen to me when my parents died. People would stare at me in my chair and it made me very uncom­fortable. The normal growing pains of adolescence were intensified by.the disability.”

Angelelli, who was para­lyzed from the chest down,

worked at the Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan, in Detroit, to regain strength in her upper body;

“I traveled a lot as a moti­vational speaker and talked to Rotary groups (and) school kids, and was a spokeswoman for people with disabilities,” she said.

In 1993, she graduated from Oakland University, provided freelance writing and eventu­ally got a job at the' Rehabilitation Institute in a media-relations post, In 1996, while working at the Paralympics in Atlanta, she realized she may be able to compete again.

She met her husband., Shawn Kornoelje, in 2000 at the Paralympics in Sydney, Australia. He was the assis­tant swim coach.

In Sydney, she finished sixth place in the 200-meter freestyle. In Athens in 2004, when she won the two bronze medals, she experienced “an indescribable range of emo­tion, from pride to joy while listening to the national anthem” before the medals were draped around her neck. .

Although the Paralympics is the second-largest sporting event in the world, it gets lit­tle attention. The Athens games had 4,000 athletes par­ticipating from 125 countries. Among these elite athletes, she was ranked second in the world.

“If you ever saw the Paralympics, these people are athletes and we train just as hard and sacrifice just as much and our accomplish­

ments are overshadowed by our Olympic team m ates/’ Angelelli said.

“The reason we made: the film was to bring more atten­tion to what the Paralympics are. The U S. is one of the only countries that doesn’t televise the Paralympics. NBC gives 418 hours to the Winter Olympics and not one hour to Paralympics.”

She expects the film about her success will make a dif­ference in other young peo­ple’s lives.

She couldn’t have made more of her life if. she hadn’t been paralyzed. “I absolutely feel happy and fulfilled,” she said. “I’ve done more things than my legs would have allowed me to do. I hit rock bottom. I can’t change what happened to me."

workers to arrive.“You know, while growing

up, I had a next-door neigh­bor who dove into shallow Water and broke his neck,”

1934 - Cardinals 4, Tigers 3: After 25 years on the out­side looking in, the Tigers re tu rned to the World Series - thanks in no sm all p a rt to the largesse of team corowner and norm ally . s ilen t p a rtn e r W alter O. Briggs, who loaned the team $100,000 at the height of the Great Depression to purchase catcher Mickey Cochrane from the finan­cially-strapped Philadelphia Athletics.

Co-owner Frank Navin, who ran the team, had been toying with the idea of h ir­ing Babe Ruth as m anager in an effort increase a tten ­dance and also enterta in ing a $2 million offer from Ty Cobb and associates to buy the ballclub. But at Briggs' insistence, Navin bought Cochrane from Connie Mack and im m ediately nam ed him the Tigers’ new m anager^____........... ..... ...

The fiery, scowling Cochrane, a lready one o f the game’s prem ier catch- ' ers, enhanced the Tigers' talen ted young pitching staff and got the most out of th e previously under­achieving, lethargic team , led by the G-Men - Hank . Greenberg, Charlie G ehringer and Goose Goslin.

But in the World Series, the Tigers couldn't cope with the ram bunctious, swashbuckling Gas House Gang from St. Louis, as the irrep ressib le 23-year Dizzy Dean, together with his brother, Paul, accounted for all four of the C ardinals’ w in s - ju s t as Dizzy prom ised they would

fortably in front, Joe “Ducky” Medwick, the Cardinals* best h itte r in the Series, trip led and slid ; hard into th ird , spiking the Tigers Marv Owen. Owen applied a particu larly hard tag, then stepped on Medwick’s foot.

When Medwick jogged, out to his position in left field for the bottom half of the inning, frustrated Tigers fans bom barded him with bottles* fruit, half- eaten sandw iches and any­thing else they could find.

The barrage continued for 20 m inutes, with Medwick standing in the outfield, hands on his hips, just out of range: Finally, baseball com m issioner Kenesaw M ountain Landis, seated in the front row of the grandstand and anxious to avoid a forfeit on his watch, especially with the Cardinals leading, 9-0, ordered Medwick to leave the field.

“For your own sake,” Landis told him, “you’re out of the gam e.’.’ .

1909 - P irates 4, Tigers 3:The ’09 Series featured the only head-to-bead contest . between baseba ll’s two biggest superstars of the day, the Tigers' widely- . despised Ty Cobb and Pittsburgh's highly-popular Honus Wagner.

The-confrontation a ttrac t­ed a new contraption called “a moving p ictu re cam era,” and Cobb and Wagner filmed a short, silen t film together before the Series began.

Then the bowlegged, even-tem pered Wagner stole the rea l show, out h it­ting the irasc ib le Cobb, .333 to .231 and stealing six bases to Ty’s two.

lem: Who would get to host the seventh and deciding game?

A coin was flipped and the Tigers won - bu t lost Game 7 and the Series, 8-0, as an unheralded 27-year- old P ittsburgh rookie named Babe Adams shut them out for his th ird win in the Series.

At least a ttendance picked up, as th ree of the four games played at tiny Bennett Park sold out, forc­ing frustra ted fans to sit atop the outfield fence or climb on utility poles and the roofs of nearby houses.

1908 - Cubs 4, Tigers 1: TyCobb enjoyed the best Series of his Hall of Fame career, batting .368 and baf­fling,the Cubs on the base paths.

But.the Tigers had to play without th e ir fine young shortstop, Donie Bush, acquired from Indianapolis too late in the season to be eligible for the Series. That forced Tigers m anager Hugh-ie Jennings to rely on

“journeym an' ChaiTTF5 - : ^ O’Leary, who had in ju red ' his throwing hand late in the regu lar season.

Jennings also shifted Germany Schaefer from th ird base to second and inserted Bill Coughlin at third, thus weakening the Tigers at th ree infield posi­tions.

The Cubs outhit the

Tigers by nearly 100 points, swiped nearly th ree times as many bases, Cobb’s exploits notw ithstanding, and made half as many errors.

It was, by the way, the last time the Chicago Cubs won a World Series.

1907 - Cubs 4, Tigers 0 (1tie): It was 20-year*old Ty Cobb versus the fabled dou­ble play trio of .Tinker-to- Evers-to-Chance as the Tigers - a franchise e a r­m arked for extinction four years ea rlie r by Am erican League p res id en t Ban Johnson and s till regarded as a weak link in the league — reached the then fledg­ling World Series for the first time.

The Tigers appeared to have Game 1 locked up in the ninth inning when catcher Charlie Schmidt let a two-out th ird strike slip passed him, enabling the tying run to score. The con-

test was called because of darkness after 12 innings and declared a 3-3 draw.

T hat was as close as the Tigers came as, appearing d isp irited , they scored a total of just th ree runs in the next four games, all them losses.

Cobb, for his part, batted a m eager .200, did not steal a base, and was never a fac­tor.

“All tha t talk of what Cobb was going to do to us m ade us sick,” said Cubs leadoff h itte r Jimmy Slagle, also known as The Human Mosquito, who swiped six bases to Cobb’s none.

In fact, Cubs p itcher Orval Overall knocked in more runs with his two-run single in Game 4 thari Cobb did during the en tire Series.

According to a new survey commissioned by the Home Safety Council, American parents cited fire as their top safety risk m ore than any other potential home hazard.

The council’s research also shows th a t fire is the third leading cause of injury-relat­ed death within the home, yet only 19 percent of homes reg­ularly test th e ir smoke alarms and just 54 percent of homes with children have discussed a home Rre escape plan.

Since October is Fire Safety Month, here are some crucial safety tips, courtesy

• Choose installation loca­tions away from the path of steam from bathrooms and cooking vapors from the kitchen, which can result in “nuisance” alarms.

• Place smoke alarms away from windows, exterior doors and a ir ducts, where drafts can interfere with their oper­ation.

Standards and Technology demonstrated that there are typically fewer than th ree m inutes to escape from a home fire. Early warning from smoke alarm s and a w ell-rehearsed fire escape plan is essential for every household. '

The Home Safety Councilrecommends the following .w, „

• Test all smoke alarms at guidelines for developing and they should be stored near least once a month, following practicing a home Are escape the windows and made part

plan.

• Keep escape paths clear and find and fix anything in your home that could inter­fere with a quick escape, such as windows that are stuck or heavy furniture blocking an exit.

• If you have a multi-story home, consider if you need to purchase fire escape ladders for upstairs bedrooms. If sp,

Smoke AlarmsNearly h a lf the parents

polled had not tested their smoke alarm s to see if their children will wake up to the sound of the alarm. Early warning is essential for escaping a fire. Haying work­ing smoke alarm s on every level of the home is the most effective way to a le rt the entire T am iljrshould a fire strike.

The Home Safety Council offers the following guide-

low battery power.• When possible, the Home

Safety Council recommends using interconnected smoke alarms. Hard-wired, in te r­connected alarms with bat­tery back-up run on your household wiring and are tied in together so that if one alarm operates, they all sig­nal together,

Also, wireless technology is now available to enable” homes to have an intercon­nected smoke alarm system that can be installed inde­

lines for installing and test- pendent of household wiring.ing smoke alarm s at home:

• Purchase smoke alarms listed by UL and carry the UL mark on packaging.

• Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, including the basement, and outside the rooms where peo­ple sleep.

• The Home Safety Council recommends installing addi­tional smoke alarms inside each bedroom or sleeping area.

• Smoke rises, so smoke alarms should be mounted high on walls o r ceilings.

• Ceiling mounted alarms should be installed at leastfour-inches aw ay-from the tern installed, nearest wall; wall-mounted alarms should be installed 4 to 12 inches away from the ceiling.

Smoke alarms should be replaced with new units every eight to 10 years.

Residential Fire Sprinkler Systems

Fire sprinklers put water on the flames when a fire starts. They will put the fire out or keep it small until fire­fighters arrive, giving people more time to escape and pro­tect property

If you are moving to an apartment, choose a building with a fire sprinkler system. If you are building a new home or rem odeling your existing home, consider hav­ing a home fire sprinkler sys-

• Push the “test button” on a smoke alarm to ensure everyone will recognize the sound of the alarm and to sig­nal the start of your fire drill.

M o s t u n i n t e n t i o n a l f i r e s s t a r t i n t h e k i t c h e nWhat’s the No. 1 cause of unin­

tentional fires at home? It’s not cigarettes or faulty heating equipment. According to reports by the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA), hundreds of people are killed and thousands are injured each year because of cooking-related fires.

In 1999, the latest year for which statistic? are available, there were 96,200 home structure fires attributed to cooking equip­ment, including 1,800 fires con­fined to a cooking vessel. These fires resulted in 331 civilian deaths, 4,183 civilian in juries, and $511.3 million in direct prop­erty damage. Three out of four

home cooking fires involve the range. And two thirds of the time, according to one study, the fires start within the first 15 minutes of cooking, Something most people do each day has the potential for being life-threatening if safety isn’t maintained.

This time of year the potential for cooking-related fires increas­es. Many people retire from out­door grill use for the year and spend more time around, the kitchen stove, Additionally, with the holidays just around the cor­ner, there is greater emphasis placed on creating home-cooked meals. .

incidences of cooking fires are not declining at the rate of other home fires. Therefore, an added safety push is necessary.. Forgetfulness and inattention are stated as the top reasons behind kitchen flare-ups. In most instances, fires start when the person doing the cooking is in another room. Upon discovering the fire, many people are injured attempting to fight the fire them­selves - usually in an improper manner. Oftentimes, the first inclination is to stop the fire with an extinguisher or water, This can actually spread or splatter cooking materials, further aggra-

ering it with a pan lid or closing the oven is the safest thing to do, apart from calling in the fire department.

To help keep the home safe while cooking, the NFPA offers these important tips:

• Don’t leave, cooking food unattended. :

• Roll up sleeves while cooking and don’t wear loose clothing.

• Keep children and pets away from cooking areas. Maintain a three-foot “safe zone” around the stove.

• Keep pot handles turned in to avoid spills. Try to cook foods on the back stovetop burners when

ily fire d r i l l , make assignments for those who will be responsible for assisting chil­dren and others who need help to awaken and respond properly.

• Ensure that family members with spe­c i a l needs and small ch ildren have a buddy to help them get out safely. If any­one in the household has a hearing impairm ent, purchase special smoke alarms that use strobes and/or vibrations to signal a fire.

Make copies of the escape plan sketches and post them in each room until everyonebecomes familiar with them.

Inside the auto industry

inBy Joseph Szczesny

Journal Register News Service Ask whether the drop in gasoline

prices will help stimulate sales of larger vehicles such as spprt utility vehicles and you get a mixed reac­tion.

Bob Thibodeau, a Ford dealer in Center Line and senior chairman of Detroit Auto .Dealers Association’s North American International Auto Show, said that around Detroit, truck sales have remained stable even as gas prices climbed.

“To be honest with you, we didn’t see that big a. decline in sales of trucks,” Thibodeau said. “Overall, buyers around Detroit remain enamored with big vehicles.”

Thibodeau also said that sales of the Ford Fusion sedan have remained very strong.

More broadly, however, sales have shifted away from trucks and SUVs, traditionally the domestic industry's most profitable vehicles, since the beginning of 2005, said John Murphy, an analyst with Merrill Lynch.

The shift away from large vehicles slowed a beat in September, Murphy said.- General Motors Corp

Co. and Chrysler Group all reported sales of trucks and sport utility vehi­cles perked up as the price of gaso­line retreated from record highs of more than $3 per gallon,

Retail truck sales, led by toll-size

pickups and utilities, were up 2 per­cent last month, GM reported. Ford reported its truck sales were down 5 percent, but toll-size pickup trucks and SUVs showed signs of stabiliz­ing as the Ford F-Series, Explorer and Expedition all posted higher sales compared with a year ago, Ford reported.

Steve Landry of Chrysler Group’s sales operation also pointed to the strong sales of the Jeep Commander, and Toyota reported that sales of Tundra toll-size pickups jumped 67.2 percent.

“While crossovers, hybrids and /sm a ll cars continue to show

strength, our SUVs and toll-size trucks also posted solid gains,” Jim Lentz, executive vice president of Toyota Motor Sales, said in a state­ment accompanying the Japanese auto giant’s monthly sales report.

Katrina hits SUVsAutomakers, however, also have

acknowledged the old Big Three business model built on sales of big trucks and SUVs has been damaged as badly as New Orleans was by Hurricane Katrina.

Katrina and the subsequent rise i gasoline-prices was a watershed

for domestic carmakers as the shift away from SUVs picked up momen­tum.

“You can still see a consumer shift toward passenger cars, but our truck sales weren’t so negative as

they’ve been in recent months,” Ford sales analyst George Pipas said.

Indeed, the Chrysler Group’s monthly sales report also showed sales of the Jeep Grand Cherokee, long one of the group’s most depend­able sellers, dropped 21 percent and also was off by double digits through September.

Sales of another of Chrysler’s SUVs, the Dodge Durango, dropped 44 percent for the month — off 41 percen t through the first nine months o f2006,

Sales of the Lincoln Navigator, once the pride of Ford’s SUV fleet, dropped nearly 9 percent.

A new report from Edmunds.com of Santa Monica, Calif., which tracks sales data, also showed manufactur­ers were spending more than ever on incentives to prop up sales of big SUVs.

“Among vehicle segments, large SUVs had the highest average incentives, $5,352 per vehicle sold, followed by large trucks at $4,990,” Edmunds said in a report issued last week.

Small-car market risingclimbing steadily and expected to reach levels not seen in nearly 20 years.

Paul Ballew, GM’s general direc­tor of market analysis, said GM’s total sales were lim ited in

September because inventory of small vehicles was constrained, If GM had small cars, it would have sold them, Ballew said.

Ballew also said sales of larger vehicles should stabilize as gasoline prices drop.

“It’s too early to say the pressure from gas prices is off,” he said. “We did see some changes in consumer behavior. We’re not predicting that truck-based utilities will surge back.”

Crossovers and cars have become more popular, he said. .

In fact, GM plans to continue emphasizing fuel economy in its advertising and other communica­tions, Ballew said.

Ballew also said GM’s corporate economic forecast calls for oil prices to remain at about $60 per barrel. That price, which prevailed on spot markets last week, still translates into gasoline prices beyond $2 per gallon.

Ford said demand for its midsize cars, the Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ, and for the Mustang, remained strong and sales of the F-Series pickup and Explorer and Expedition sport utility vehi­cles all showed higher sales com-. pared with September 2005

Fain at the pumpMichael Manley, Chrysler vice

president of sales strategy, also said consumers are unlikely to forget

anytime soon the rise in gasoline prices to $3 per gallon.

“We’ll have to see several months of low gas prices before the concern about gas prices goes out of the mar­ket,” he said.

In. fact, concern about toel econo­my contributed to the 53 percent increase in sales of Chrysler and Dodge minivans last month, Manley said.

“Minivans are more toel efficient than SUVs,” he said.

A new study done at the end of Septem ber by . J.D. . Power & Associates backs up Manley’s com­ments.

“Despite the recent dip in gas prices, several months of higher prices have taken a toll on con­sumers as new-vehicle shoppers more frequently cite gas mileage as a reason for rejecting a vehicle,” the report noted.

Seventeen percent of new-car buyers surveyed by Power cited poor gas mileage as a principal rea­son for rejecting a particular vehi- cle.

Big vehicles, particularly large SUVs and pickup trucks, have the highest rejection rates, the Power survey found. . . ____

“Although gas prices have begun to recede, new-vehicle buyers are likely to continue to be wary of volatile gas prices,” said Jeff Zupancic, director of retail research at J.D. Power & Associates.

A taste fo r C h e ls e aBy Sheila Pursglove

Special to the Chelsea Standard

Chelsea native Char­lene Powers Lange spent a year of her youth in Lodi, Calif., when

her father was made western regional m anager for Mas- sey-Ferguson.

The 12 months changed her life.

She not only met her future

the pa ir would la te r became co-owners of a California vineyard and state-of-the-art winery, and among the lead­ing lights of the Lodi commu­nity

But Powers Lange hasn’t forgotten her roots, giving back to Chelsea by support­ing the annual Autumn Jub ilee at the Chelsea Center for the Arts. She donates for the auction a stay on their Lodi ranch, personal winery tour and special guest status at Lodi’s annual Zin Festival in May.

This year’s event is Saturday at the CCA in Chelsea.

"Our donation to the Autumn Jub ilee is just a small token of appreciation to the community of Chelsea

-that was extremely-support- ive and generous to me as a young person,” Lange says."Many Chelsea natives were a significant part of my edu­cation and development - - sophom ore she won the lots o f lessons to be learned Chelsea Community F a ir as a kid and there were many Queen ^ le .

Chelsea native Charlene Powers Lange stands in front of the Center for Performing Arts in Lodi, Calif., that bears her name. Lange, whose husband and brother-in-law founded Langetwins Winery in Lodi, recently retired after 25 years as community center director for the City of Lodi and executive for the Hutchins Street Square Foundation.

people outside of the family who were th e re to lean on.

“Our family’s effort to sup­port the Autumn Jubilee is just one way th a t I can acknowledge that energy and gift.”

The eldest of five children o f the late M artha and Charlie Powers, Lange still has close ties in Washtenaw County, where three of her siblings live — Rod on the family farm on Scio-Church Road, and Scott and Holly live in Manchester. Bonnie lives in Lake Charles, La.

Lange, a 1968 graduate of Chelsea High School, served as editor of the CHS school paper, Bulldog Barks, during her senior year. Arid while a

"There was no talent por­tion at that time, only speech­es and presentations,” she says. "And there was nearly no program since it poured ra in and they moved a flatbed truck into the com­m ercial building to shelter the last part of the competi­tion.

"After the crowning my then-boyfriend Bobby Kush- maul drove me back to Kathy Fulks’ home - she lived in town - so I could change out of my long gown and into jeans and boots. My horse, Nar, was in the barn at the fair and I needed to take care o f him before heading home.”

Lange belonged to two 4-H clubs in her teens — Rogers Comers Herdsmen for live­stock, and Wide Awake 4-H for sewing. As a jun io r leader, she was heavily involved in county leader­ship positions.

“My primary projects were sewing, my Corriedale sheep and junior leadership,” she says.

“After college I competed and was chosen to be one o f two state representatives for the In ternational Farm Youth Exchange program and lived in Greece for seven months to serve as an ag extension agent. The IFYE program was actually the program the Peace Corps was based on.”

Lange has fond memories

of The Chelsea Standard, and its former owners, the late Walt and Helen Leonard.

"Walt Leonard was always reporting on youth events, especially the 4-H projects, so we knew him well,” she says. "And then I was a stridger for the S tandard when I lived in Greece after college. Great little village newspaper.”

Lange graduated from Michigan State University in 1972 with one of the first majors in agricultural com­munications, and often wrote for ag magazines including Hoards Dairyman.

She had remained pen pals for 12 years with Randy Lange •— her sixth-grade friend from h e r year in California — and finally tied

the knot with her childhood sw eetheart in 1973 at the First Congregational Church in Chelsea. The wedding fea­tured music from the Chelsea High School m adrigal singers, a troupe that includ­ed Je ff Daniels.

A te n d e r m o m e n tD an ie ls ’ latest is another h it

By Sandi Kasha. Stqff Writer

It’s difficult to stun up actor and writer Jeff Daniels’latest play "Escanaba in Love,” a prequel to "Escanaba in Da Mooplight.”

Not that it's not worth putting into words, but because the play is surprising with its hilarious dialogue and unique characters that it’s difficult to just summarize it in a few paragraphs.

Daniels’ play is a multi-dimensional story that channels am ultitude o f human emo­tions such aspride,forgiveness, fam ilyval- ues, tradition, unconditional love and a c c e p t a n c e ^ . .

The effortless binter between the actors right d b ^ to the uncomfortable silent moments among the characters make the production endearing long after, the actors take a Bo w

"long line of Soady greatness.”He then drops the bombshell on his father,

Albert Soady Sr. (Paul Hopper) and grandfa­ther Alphonse Soady (Will David, Young) when he announces that he married the woman of hisdream s at the bar.

Albert Soady Jr. explains to his stunned father, grandfather and friend, "Salty” Jim Negamanee (Wayne David Parker) that "when it comes to love, you’re not in total control of things.”

When the men finally meet the brash bride, Big Betty BUlou (Charlyn Swarthout) all concepts o f femininity and love go out the window.

Albert Soady Sr. sums up the entire play when he delivers an allegory on love by explaining it like a trout that ohCe it’s caught to throw it in the net because it can slip away quickly. > •

relationships with clients and wineries, oversees vine­yard operations and manages new developments. His wife Susan, is office manager and human resource director. Their son Philip manages- cultural operations. and its labor force, and daughter Kendra serves in brand mar­keting and sales strategies.

“Our central valley ranch is a bit different than what’s common in southern Michigan - alas, no red barns,” Lange says. “And every bit of dirt is irrigated -

- a l l - automated-sprinklers. Drip hoses on all the vines,

“No big spaces that are not planted with vines, so it’s dif­ficult to have a livestock operation. I’ve negotiated a small space for my horses,

Dutch Warmbloods, and rid­ing is negotiated through the vineyards.. “In our county the weather is quite mild - no rain from April through November, and then o u r , whiteChristmas -means there is car-stopping fog to maneuver through during the w inter months.” •

Lange recently re tired after 25 years as community center d irector for the City of Lodi and executive for the Hutchins S treet Square Foundation, which wasresponsible for a 10-acre facility built with more than $15 million of private contri­butions. She was honored with the facility that bears her name, the Charlene Powers Lange Performing Arts T heatre and rem ains involved on the board of the Square’s Foundation.

While Lodi has been good

to her. Lange still enjoys sup­porting events in the town where she grew up.

“It’s my pleasure to be part of the energy that is so neces­sary to develop the arts facil­ity in C helsea/’ she says. “Our auction contribution is relatively easy to make and it’s, a great opportunity for our family to share a b it of the California wine industry with the Midwest.

“Last year’s auction item was purchased by Norm and Sally Wetzel and that was especially fun for me since Norm didn’t , recognize my m arried name even though we had worked together for a y ear a t Sams, Inc, in Ann A rbor when 1 was in college.

„ “Lots of surprises and a chance to.reconnect.”

JoiRNAI. RKCISTKR News STRUCK

T h e n u m b e r seven seem s to be a b ig d e a l in a u to m o ­b ile nam es now ; th e re a re a b u n c h w ith th a t n u m e ra l, w h ic h is m o s tly used to te l l us th a t it's a fa m ily v e h ic le , o ffe r in g s e a tin g fo r seven.

L a te r th is ye a r, th e y ’l l in tro d u c e a sports u te w ith a n in e in its n am e, a lth o u g h it's a fa m ily v e h ic le th a t seats seven.

T h e p ro b le m ? M a zd a a lre a d y has a s e rie s o f cars id e n t i f ie d b y a fiv e , an d th e C X -7 is h ased on th e sam e w o r ld p la t fo r m as th e M azd a6 , V o lv o C40 an d V 50 . so u s in g th e n u m b e r f iv e ju s t w o n ’t w o rk .

I guess th e c u r re n t fad o f ju s t u s in g a lp h a n u m e r ic ^ m a d e it in a p p r o p r ia te to ju s t g ive it a n am e .

M a y b e th e c a r w o n 't be as fo r g e t ta b le as th e ja rg o n id e n t ify in g i t . B u t as M a zd a e n te rs a n e w n ic h e , th e y 'v e got a c a r w ith good bones. D a v id M a tth e w , th e v e h ic le l in e m a n a g e r (re a d d e v e lo p ­m e n t boss) fo r th e c a r s a id , " F o r th e C X -7 , e v e ry th in g is s p a w n e d fro m th e M a z d a 6 .”

W ith th is c a r, M a z d a ’s say­in g th a t t h e i r s p o rt u te is h prod.ucts w i l l b e c ro s s o v e rs - th e y ’l l be b u i l t on c o m fo rt­a b le an d d r iv e a b le c a r p la t ­fo rm s, so d r iv e rs w o n ’t h ave to p ay th e r id e an d h a n d lin g c o n s e q u e n c e s o f d r iv in g so m e th in g b a s e d on a tru c k .

Then th e re ’s this: "Real ute sales have been flat recently , w hile crossover sales are girowing," Matthew said. But what will loyal Mazda custom ers expect? “C apabilities had to m eet the expecta tion of the styling,” he said.

It is stylish. Standing fou rsquare in its road to success are the Honda CR-V, Ford Escape, Toyota RAV-4, and a few m ore, and Mazda, being owned by Ford, na tu ­rally never m entions steal­ing sales from a siste r prod­uct.

Mazda thinks that a differ­ent group of ute buyers will look into th is vehicle.

“We th ink t h e . buyers of the T will be individualis­tic,” Matthew said. “They’ll be single couples or o lder fam ilies.”

T here a re two products that will fill the family ute lineup for Mazda: th is one, which focuses on style and to some degree, perform ­ance, and th en la te r th is year, the CX-9, which has a th ird row of seats and holds seven people.

When you look a t the CX-7, its style be lies its $23,750 beginning p rice . M azda’s upper-level m odel probably m axes out a t a price around $32 grand. They’ve all got the same engine and trans-. m ission, sam e ,w heels and tires, and th ere a re only a couple of e x te rio r d iffe r­ences. T h eir view is, why

The stylish 2007 Mazda CX-7 is based on the same platform as the Mazda6 and is powered by a 2.3-liter, four-cylinder engine that produces 244 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The Mazda CX-7 has a base price of $23,750.

should they make those who buy th e base m odel feel bad? Sensible.

Speaking of eng ine and drivetrain , the four-cylinder eng ine is a view of the future. Now that gasoline in th e U,S. is finally getting c leaned .up, we’re seeing the in troduction of engines like th is one.

F irst, the num bers, I t’s a 2.3-Hter four-cylinder th a t uses d irec t injection, w here th e fuel is vaporized and m ixed with a ir d irectly in

than in the intake manifold. The advantages are that the m ix ture is coo ler and d e n s e r ,, w hich allows for e a s ie r com plete com bus­tion. It also lets engineers use a sligh tly le a n e r mix and finally le ts the catalytic converter begin its work slightly e a r lie r than with a typical ram in jection sys­tem..

This eng ine a lso has a turbo and with a boost of 14.9, th e re ’s quite an add i­tion to power. The only

you have to Use prem ium fuel, but with its variable valve system, you’re proba- . b ly going to get a couple of, m iles to the gallon b e tte r th an runn ing on regular. Actually, with th is ear, you might not, because if the car senses octane, it goes into a low-power safety m ode so you won’t dam age the engine.

But I th ink it’s safe to say th a t re la tive to a conven­tional engine of th is powen yoff a r e n t T J ^ n g m uchr

th e firing chamber, ra th e r draw back to th e engine is any, penalty for using p rem i­

um fuel. The big issue is the fuel needs to be clean, You’re squirting fuel a t se ri­ous pressures — up to 1600 psi -^ d ire c tly into the Com­bustion cham ber. T hat’s not where you w ant crud from dirty fuel deposited.

The resu lt of all th is is a small four-banger that p ro ­duces 244 horsepow er and 258 pound-feet o f torque. That’s m ore than 100 horse­power p e r liter. We w ere proud of racing engines that had so good a ra tio ju s t a decade or so ago. Today i t’s
