Engineers looking for new deal BY TONY BRUSCATO STAFF WRITER tbruscato@oe.homecomm.net

Plant engineers, who are in charge of the heating, air conditioning and custo-dial units at each of the buildings in the Plymouth-Canton school district, are p ressur ing adminis t ra tors for a new contract. They've been working without a contract since last June 30, and say it's time a new pact be negoti-ated.

"Our wages have not even kept up with the rate of inflation, let alone pay us for additional work that's requested of us," Tom Finfrock, president of the Plymouth-Canton Federation of Plant Engineers, told the Board of Education.

"We take great pride in contributing to a safe, clean, comfortable environ-ment for everyone within the district.

Canton closes gaps • The townsh ip will spend $1.2 mil l ion over the next eight years to add side-walks in local neighbor-hoods.

BY CAROL MARSHALL STAFF WRITER cmarshall@oe.homecomm.net

"Hoofin' it" through Canton is about to get a little easier as the township begins work on its $1.2 million sidewalk gap program.

Tammy Watson was glad to hear it. She told the Canton Township Board of Trustees taking her small children out to Flodin Park near her home - at Mor-ton Taylor and Saltz roads - is a treach-erous journey.

"On more t h a n one occasion we've almost been hit by a car," she said. "I'm a little miffed tha t we spent all tha t money on a skating arena and we could-n't put down a little concrete for a side-walk."

Watson addressed the board at its last regular meet-

The children of Canton Cha r t e r Academy offered their 12-year-old friend from El Salvador, Hector Cas-tro a welcome and a check for $1,400.

"My kids raided their piggy banks as soon as they heard about Hector,"

said Kim DeGraaf , wip ing proud tears from her bright blue eyes.

DeGraaf, a school secretary and m o t h e r of two C a n t o n C h a r t e r Academy students, said her children told her Hector's story a little more than a month ago.

mg, and coin-cidentally the gap program was on the agenda the same evening.'

T o w n s h i p S u p e r v i s o r Tom * Yack said about a yea r ago, a c o m m i t t e e was formed to inspect the township and d e t e r m i n e what missing

sidewalk segments were important to complete.

The committee made a list of 60 gaps, and prioritized them. The project will take about eight years to complete. The first 12 locations will be constructed this fall.

Yack said gaps near schools and play-grounds are the most urgent. He added some of the high-priority sites will not be addressed until next year, however, because the township needs to obtain right of way from property owners.

"Well have to ask for that or buy it," he said. "So that may take a while."

The first leg of the project will cost $100,000 this year . Design will t ake place over the next few months and con-struction is ant icipated to s t a r t la te September, and will be completed by the end of October.

Besides the area near Flodin Park, other high-priority areas include the north and west side of Sheldon Center between Amy Lane and Charrington, east side of Canton Center near the Post Office, the west side of Veteran's Way near Heritage Park, and the west side of Haggerty from Larimore to the existing commercial drive.

Zero tolerance: Cops stage spring campaign BY CAROL MARSHALL STAFF WRITER cmarshaU@oe.homecomm.net

Canton police are again cracking down on u n d e r a g e dr ink ing in the weeks surrounding Plymouth-Canton Schools' graduation.

A zero-tolerance policy against sub-s t ance a n d alcohol abuse wi l l be enforced by the Canton Police Depart-ment.

"We're going to be out investigating our local business owners as well as home parties to make sure that every-body's complying with drinking laws," said Capt. Laura Golles.

Recent police stings have resulted in citations to Canton businesses for sell-ing tobacco and alcohol to working decoy teenagers.

She added when a minor buys alco-hol or tobacco in a store, it 's usually the clerk or responsible employee that receives the fine.

"So they have a lot more incentive to keep an eye on what's going on and ask for that ID," she said.

A much bigger problem, Golles said,

is at private home parties. Parents are also warned to adhere

to the law, which falls under a criminal statute that took effect in 1994.

The law s t a t e s t h a t any a d u l t — including parents - who own or control premises tha t are used by minors to consume alcohol is guilty of a misde-meanor and may be prosecuted. The crime is punishable by imprisonment for up to 30 days or by a fine of up to $1,000 or both.

The department's Community Polic-ing teams will beef up enforcement during graduation festivities. Other activities, including the last days of school for seniors and underclassmen, and the senior party will also be the focus of increased enforcement.

Canton Police Lt. Rob Cripe said offi-cers will be patrolling the high school parking lots to ensure tha t s tudents leave in an orderly fashion on the last days of school.

"In the past, there was this tradition of spraying shaving cream t h a t was always allowed," he said. "But it jus t

Checkbook disappearance School funding ends with missing $20,000

from page A1

A Belleville woman told Can-ton Police her niece stole approx-imately $20,000 from her check-ing account over the last month.

The victim told police she thought the suspect, an 18-year-old Canton woman, along with three other relatives in their 20s, may have taken a book of checks from her home.

The victim said she told her sister the checks were missing. The sister then told everyone in the family what had happened. A few days later, the checks re-appeared. However, a large sum of money was missing from the victim's checking account.

The victim's sister asked her daughter if she had anything to do with the missing funds, and she allegedly admitted to taking the checks and cashing them at a Canton bank.

Field fury A referee told Canton Police he

was assaulted by an irate parent at Independence Park during the Canton Cup soccer tournament last weekend.

According to the victim, a 17-year-old Mount Pleasant man,

the assaul t occurred Sunday afternoon after an altercation on the field.

As one of the young players was leaving the field, an adult from the opposing team approached the player. The refer-ee told police he could see the adult was angry, so he stepped between the youth and the adult.

The adult then grabbed the referee by the shoulder and threw him to the ground.

The teen tried to get the name of his attacker, but he stormed off.

Locker larceny An Ann Arbor man told Can-

ton Police someone stole nearly $1,000 from his locker while he played a game of hockey at Michigan Deck Hockey.

The 26-year-old victim said he left the money in his pants pock-et last weekend. He left the trousers in a locker at the busi-ness, located at 45109 Michigan Ave.

After his game, he returned and the cash was gone.

in support of Rep. Bruce Patter-son's, R-Canton, House Bill 4111, designed to increase Ply-mouth-Canton's state foundation grant of $6,525 per student.

Plymouth-Canton administra-tors and school board members have been fighting for years to get an increase to gain parity with neighboring school districts.

"This is a school district that's in crisis," Guile told the commit-tee. "Our buildings are at capac-ity, and class sizes aren't going to get any smaller. A bond for additional buildings or expand-ing additional facilities will have a detrimental effect on our bud-get."

The tr io touted the recent Standard and Poor's report indi-cating the district "achieves well above-average student results ... with spending per student that is lower than the average of a group of peer districts." At the same time, they handed out a multi-year projection which indi-cates deficit spending beginning next year, and a fund balance t h a t h i t s negative f igures in 2004-05.

"Our board is concerned about the $2.1 million to open the new high school, new overhead costs, and a new elementary school that will be near capacity when

it opens in August," said Mardi-gian. "Our schools are already jam-packed."

With the current state founda-tion grant, Booher told the com-mittee "we are feeling a serious competition disadvantage. We are in a unique position, and feel we need a lifeline."

In opening statements* Patter-son said Plymouth-Canton Schools face a serious competi-tive disadvantage compared to Farmington Hills, Ann Arbor, Birmingham and Romulus.

"This disadvantage is being felt now. But, due to our dis-trict's growth, it will be felt even more as our third high school opens and a very talented board and adminis t ra t ive s ta f f a re faced with mounting operating costs," said Patterson. "The gap in funding left by Proposal A has not narrowed suff ic ient ly or quickly enough."

Patterson's bill would increase Plymouth-Canton's foundation grant to $9,000 per student, with $7,800 coming from the s tate and $1,200 from the d i s t r ic t through a millage. However, Proposal A does not allow for districts to hold individual mil-lage campaigns.

Committee cha i rman Ron Jelinek, R-Three Oaks, was sym-

pathetic, but noted Plymouth-Canton has, and continues, to receive more than the average -foundation grant.

"Our problem is that there are many districts scratching to hold the line on reductions," he said.

Pan Godchaux, R-Birming-ham, said she likes the idea of allowing school districts to put an operating millage proposal in front of voters.

"We took away from communi-ties the ability to provide more resources for their school dis-tricts than the state was going to provide," she said.

The committee failed to vote on the bill, effectively killing it. Patterson said he knew it would be a hard sell.

"There is a need, there is a cri-sis," said Patterson. "We will continue to explore solutions. But, this isn't something tha t comes together overnight."

The Plymouth-Canton contin-gent was pleased their message was heard, and there could be a future opportunity to conduct an operating millage.

"The solution isn't simple, and will take much more dialogue," said Booher. "We support these efforts, which we know will go through a lot of revisions before a final solution."

It appears the Plymouth-Can-ton school dis t r ic t ' s plea for financial aid isn't falling on deaf ears.

Just hours after three repre-sentatives of the district testified in front of a House committee considering legislation to give Plymouth-Canton a bigger share of s ta te aid funds, a bill was

introduced in the House to allow school districts the opportunity to levy additional operating mil-lage with approval from voters.

The bill was introduced by Sen. Pan Godchaux, R-Birming-ham, and co-sponsored by John Stewart, R-Plymouth Township.

The bill allows an enhance-ment millage to be presented to voters at regular school board elections, which are held on the second Monday in June.

"We're encouraged by what we see as a small wave of support," said Stewart. "Ill work hard to get it passed. It will allow dis-tricts to raise money for them-selves."

P lymouth-Canton Trustee Steve Guile, who testified at Wednesday 's subcommittee hea r ing , hopes i t 's only the beginning for relief for all school d is t r ic ts in need of f inancial help.

Gifts for Hector: Kindergarten students hand pictures they had drawn and colored to visitor Hector Castro of El Salvador.

Reaching out er about the boy who was play-ing outside one day last winter, and was perched a top a brick wall when an earthquake struck, •devastating his town.

Young Hector Castro fell into a b u r n i n g t r a s h pi t so deep he couldn't climb out until after 90 percent of his body was covered with severe burns.

Hector was treated in El Sal-vador for the burns , receiving painful skin grafts. He lost his legs because they were burned too badly to save.

His parents, who earn $120 a month, and four siblings had no resources, and the family lives under two plastic tarps.

"They didn't have much before and now they're even worse off," sa id P r inc ipa l C l a u d i a Williamson.

It was whi le he w a s be ing treated that he met Ohio couple Don and Karen Manley, whose daughter, Elizabeth Kose, teach-es at the academy.

The Manleys were in El Sal-vador on a church mission trip,

t a f i L q i j a k c . W h i l e v i s i t i n g a hospital , they met Hector and knew they had to help.

"He was such a h a p p y boy, even in the hospital," Kose said. "He was smiling all the time." The Manleys knew the only way to help was to bring Hector to the Uni ted S ta tes for medical treatment.

Four weeks ago, they brought the boy and his mother to their Ohio home. His mother returned to El Salvador to r ema in with her other children.

Lessons unplanned Kose told her s tudents about

Hector du r ing a lesson about compassion, and she said once

• Elizabeth ICose, whose parents met Hector while on a church mission In El Salvador, told her students about the boy during a lesson about compassion. Office the students got wind of the boy's story, they were called t© action, Kose said.

t he s t u d e n t s got wind of the boy's story, they were called to action. The students went to the t a sk of ra is ing money to help Hector's family,

Kose sa id S i , 4 0 0 may not sound like much in the suburbs, but in El Salvador it will nearly build a house for the Castro fam-ily.

"It only costs about $3,000 to build their house," she said. "We wanted to make sure that when Hector gets to go home, he has a house to return to."

DeGraaf said even though her children knew about Hector and broke open their piggy banks to he lp him, they didn ' t a t f i r s t quite understand what it meant to !ive through ^i;eh n t n-uwiv

"I told thcili v;X'H- it;i\ iil Uii'p-.iOi to imagine they're just out play-ing soccer one day , and then something happens . And they can ' t . And they don ' t have a house," she said. "As soon as they understood, they got real quiet. Then they started talking about wha t they could do for him."

Deborah Svrcina's fourth-grad-er , Da l las , told h i s mother , "Mama, this is a terrible thing that has happened. We just have to help him."

So, Svrcina raced for her wal-let. Dallas raced for his wallet. Even 4-year-old Molly Svrcina got out her money to add to the collection.

Jul ie Laure t te reported t h a t her first-grader asked if he could give Hector the $150 in his piggy bank.

"He sa id , 'I don ' t need Rol le rb lades t h a t bad, '" sa id Laure t t e , add ing her son ha s been influenced by the school's curriculum, which includes val-ues training.

"Our whole school is based on compassion, moral values and ethics," she said. "This is j u s t amazing."

Hector has been f i t ted wi th one prosthesis leg, and is under-going physical the rapy before receiving the other one.

''It changes you when you meet him. It is a tragedy, what has happened to Hector. But it 's a blessing for everyone who's ever met him," she said of the little boy from El Salvador who plays on a baseball team, rounding the bases in his wheelchair. "What I'm teaching my students is you can do anything if you believe you can."

Q a n d A Q: What was the Johnstown

Flood? A: On May 31, 1889, heavy

ra ins caused the Connemaugh River Dam to burst. At nearby Johns town, Pa., t he result ing flood killed more than 2,300 peo-ple and destroyed the homes of t h o u s a n d s more. Nearly 800 unident if ied drowning victims were buried in a common grave a t J o h n s t o w n ' s Grandview Cemetery. So devastating was the flood and so widespread the sorrow for its victims that "John-stown Flood" entered the lan-guage as a phrase to describe a disastrous event. The valley city of Johnstown, in the Allegheny Mountainsm, has been damaged repeatedly by floods; 1936 (25 dea ths ) and 1977 (85 deaths) were the next most destructive.

In an operat ion t h a t took months of planning, a fleet of 2,727 ships of every descrip-t i on converged f rom B r i t i s h ports (Wales to the North Sea). Operation Overlord involved 2 million tons of war mater ia ls , i nc lud ing more t h a n 50,000 t a n k s , a r m o r e d cars , j e e p s , trucks and half-tracks. The U.S. alone sent 1.7 million fighting men . The G e r m a n s bel ieved that the invasion would not take place under the adverse weather condi t ions of t h i s ear ly J u n e day, but as the sun came up, the village of Saint-Mere-Eglise was l i b e r a t e d by Amer i can parachut i s t s , and by nightfal l t he landing of 155,000 Allies attested to the success of D-Day. The long-awaited second front had at last materialized.

Jaye has no local defenders in Senate BY MIKE MALOTT

,R HOMETOWN NEWS SERVICE ' ' mmalott@homecomm.net •5" •

David Jaye went down swing-ing.

As Michigan Senate deliberat-ed his expulsion Thursday, May 24, the Washington Township Republican - long known for his feisty demeanor - remained defi-ant to the end.

He leveled a long list of coun-tercharges against those sena-tors seeking his ouster.

In the end, however, 33 other senators disagreed, voting to remove him from office.

All local senators voted to sup-port the expulsion resolution. Only two votes were cast against it, one coming from Jaye himself.

CANTON 6 Ford Rd 1 Mile W. of 1-275

Jaye accused Senate Majority Leader Dan DeGrow, R-Port Huron, of "railroading" him out of office. "This is payback because I've dared to challenge the Republican leadership," he said. Jaye said it was "political payback" for the unpopular posi-tions he has taken.

He accused Sen. Thaddeus McCotter, R-Livonia, and the remainder of the six-member Select Committee to Examine the Qualifications of Sen. Jaye of violating his due process rights, not giving his attorneys time to prepare a case, rushing expul-sion through based on accusa-tions alone rather than convic-tions, and refusing to accept tes-timony from his witnesses. Jaye argued he'd not been allowed to have character witnesses to tes-tify about his contributions.

"Only people who had negative

things to say were allowed," he said . He f u r t h e r accused DeGrow of keeping secret files on him. And he claimed that top-less photos found on his state-owned laptop had been rebuilt by a "computer whiz" from "secret copies" of his hard drive.

But the reso lu t ion for his removal cited three drunk driv-ing convictions, t he las t for which he spent 45 days in jail last summer; "a record of abuse, intimidating and violent behav-ior"; "two physical altercations"; and "misuse of his position as a State Senator to intimidate leg-islative staff members and mis-use of Senate staff members and resources."

DeGrow countered t h a t , despite the fact charges were dropped in Florida, there was evidence Jaye had h i t his f iancee, including h e r s ta te-

ments on a 9-1-1 tape and marks on her face when police arrived.

In an incident in Bay County last November, McCotter said he believed an 18-year-old witness who testified that he saw Jaye hit and kick his fiancee, Sonia Kloss. A security tape from the store where the incident occurred, while not showing the strike, corroborated the wit-ness 's tes t imony, McCotter argued. Two other witnesses reported seeing the assault.

And copies of Jaye's digital photos were made in the course of standard processes when the laptop was being repaired, at Jaye's request, Sen. John Cher-ry, D-Clio, contended.

McCotter explains Sen. Thaddeus McCotter, R-

Livonia, served as chair of the Select Committee and voted to

expel. If senators did not make up

their minds before hand, McCot-ter said, Jaye ' s r e m a r k s -attempting to use the privilege of his office as a defense for his conduct - ultimately convinced members to vote for his expul-sion.

"I can't be silent about what I perceive to be a repeated pattern of misconduct," McCotter said. "To portray oneself as a victim, to portray oneself as anything but responsible for one's own actions and the damage to the institution they inflict, would be d is ingenuous at bes t . In my mind, much of what we've seen, quite simply, is a request for special treatment from Mr. Jaye, that he would not afford to any citizen in the State of Michigan."

"We do legislation all the time that affects the life, limb and property of every resident of the State of Michigan," McCotter continued. "And we follow the due process, procedural due pro-cess that is set forth in the Con-stitution, and the rules of the Michigan Senate. This resolu-tion received far more delibera-tion and attention than many floor amendmen t s t h a t are placed onto appropriation bills that affect far more people. So to

say that one did not have one's day is again, at best, disingenu-ous, especially when one has had a whole lot to say about this sub-ject everywhere but under oath."

Bennett's view Aids to Sen. Loren Bennett, R-

Canton, explained that he voted for the resolution for "conduct unbecoming to a state senator."

Aids to Sen. Dianne Byrum, D-Onondaga, said only tha t she "thought it was the right thing to do." Her office deferred to Sen. Cherry for any further comment.

Sen. John Cherry, D-Clio, served on the Select Committee and voted for the expulsion.

"On very rare occasions, it is necessary for an individual to leave these chambers, voluntari-ly or involuntarily, because their behavior is so egregious tha t they can no longer command the institutional and public respect that is necessary for democratic institutions to function, and I fear t h a t this is one of those moments," Cherry said.

Sens. Bill Bullard, R-High-land, Mat Dunaskiss, R-Lake Orion, and George Hart, D-Dear-born, did not speak on the reso-lution and did not respond to phone calls. *

Board hopefuls see smooth transition into Jeffress era BY TIM SMITH STAFF WRITER tsmith@oe.homecomm.net

The five candidates for the Schoolcraft College Board of Trustees all have a similar take on the pending changing of the guard at the top.

N a m e -Election coverage continues Sunday

ly, the . d a w n i n g of the C o n w a y Jeffress administration will be

• relatively painless for School-. craft board members, faculty and students - mostly because he's already been a top administrator for a number of years under the watch of soon-to-retire President Richard McDowell.

Incumbent Mary Breen, a board member since 1983 (one year af ter McDowell's tenure began) said there is a "fantastic

opportunity" for the future w i th the e m b a r k i n g presidency of Jef f ress , the longtime vice president for i n s t r u c t i o n and s tudent services.

"We know w h a t he 's like," Breen said. "We know how he operates, we know tha t he has always done a good job."

Although she pred ic t s a smooth transition, Breen said a key will be how well Je f f ress

adjusts to the additional duties of the presidency, such as deal-ing with the public.

According to incumbent Brian Broderick, a lawyer who is con-cluding his first full term on the board, the hi r ing of a known commodity improves the chance of a relatively seamless transi-tion.

"It's a natural progression (for Je f f ress ) , " Broderick said. "I don't know that there'll be any real big adjustment. ... Every-body knows him, everybody is aware of his personal i ty and style. I think he's a perfect fit for the school and a perfect comple-

SCHOOLCRAFT BOARD ELECTION ment to follow up Dr. McDowell."

Likewise, incumbent Richard Reaume - appointed in Novem-ber 1999 to fill a vacancy created by the r e s igna t ion of S teve Ragan - said the hir ing of an insider should smooth over any transitory bumps.

Jeffress already knows about issues such as programs, facili-t ies and employee con t rac t s , which are soon to expire.

e"There 's no l e a rn ing curve involved," Reaume said.

Challenger Kevin McNamara

said he would have preferred the new president not be hired until a f t e r the board elect ion, "a l though, f rom w h a t I h e a r about J e f f r e s s , I u n d e r s t a n d they probably would have voted for him (anyway). He's a good guy, a great guy."

But the cha l lenger sees a potent ial problem in t h a t the board will have to work with Jef-fress to ensure Schoolcraft ade^ quately taps into state and fed-eral dollars.

He said McDowell was well-

connected, with the state com-munity college association and with various lobbying groups."

"... The board's got to pick up some of the slack of getting fed-eral and state money in to the college," McNamara said.

Challenger Fred Bolden noted several issues that Jeffress will need to quickly get to speed on, " inc reas ing college income beyond tuition and taxes, looking at business partnerships."

The college will need to "work with s ta te and federal legisla-tors" on trying to improve finan-cial aid for Internet courses, the challenger added.

BY TIM SMITH STAFF WRITER tsmith@oe.homecomm.net

The Schoolcraft College board las t week approved incoming Pres iden t Conway J e f f r e s s ' salary for his first year at the helm.

According to Trustee Richard Reaume, the salary for Jeffress will be about $130,000 - approx-ima te ly the same as wha t Richard McDowell is earning. McDowell, longtime president at Schoolcraft, is retiring effective July 1, when Jeffress takes over.

Reaume said the president's salary is reviewed annually, as part of the overall evaluation. Usually, the salary is increased in concert with what faculty and other staff members receive, in the area of 2 or 3 percent, he explained.

Schoolcraft board President Carol Strom could not be reached for comment about the approval.

Meanwhile, the McDowell era winds down with a public recep-tion 5-7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 28, a t the Waterman Campus Center.

A program and special presen-t a t i o n begins a t 6:15 p.m. Reaume said a d m i n i s t r a t o r s from the five public school dis-tricts that comprise Schoolcraft's area are expected to attend and contribute to the program.

Contract from page A1

We never thought the board wouldn't compensate us for the duties and responsibilities that were added to our workload."

Finfrock said his union, which represents 23 plant engineers, have been bargaining for over a year, and will soon be negotiat-ing with the district's third rep-re sen ta t ive as a resu l t of changes in administration.

"Since 1992, inf la t ion has risen 26 percent and our wages only 11 percent," said Finfrock. "We don ' t feel we are being unreasonable. We would like to be able to maintain our house-holds at the same level we did 10 years ago. Instead, we're raising families and living on much less, and making more concessions with our hea l t h insurance and other benefits. Many of us have taken on sec-ond jobs jus t to keep up with inflation."

Supe r in t enden t Kath leen Booher admits the negotiations have been slowed down by the

fact there have been several changes in the district's negotia-tors.

"As Tom Finfrock pointed out, they began negotiations with one person who has left the dis-trict, and resumed with anoth-er," said Booher. "Yes, they've been meetings. Yes, there have been discussions in closed ses-sions with the board. Obviously, we're not at a point, yet, where we have an agreement."

Finfrock said the stalled nego-tiations have taken its toll on union, membership, with several plant engineers moving on to other districts.

"They are doing the same dut ies as Plymouth-Canton plant engineers, but are better compensated for their efforts," he said. "We're not asking for any special favors. However, we are request ing to be t rea ted with respect, and offered a fair settlement commensurable with the duties and responsibilities we perform."

got out of hand, so a couple of years ago, the schools had to put a stop to it."

He explained some of the stu-dents were filling squirt guns or balloons with bleach and water and assaulting each other with the caustic mix. Then there was an injury accident involving a teen driver who couldn't see because her windshield was so covered with shave cream.

"There were just a lot of people getting dragged into it that didn't want to be, so we'll just be there making sure people can leave when they want to leave," he said.

Besides the extra enforcement, two school resource officers have conducted special awareness pro-grams on alcohol and substance abuse for students prior to grad-uation.

Our fundamental purposes are to enhance the lives of our readers, nurture the hometowns we serve and contribute to the business success of our customers.

Foundation milestones definitely worth noting

The Canton Community Foundation has passed some significant milestones this year.

The charitable organization is midway through i ts 11th year as a community mainstay. It's endowment fund stands at about $750,000 and is halfway to being the self-sustaining source of revenue that board members envision. _ The foundation's just-published annual report shows significant increases in its assets and support. Expenses and liabili-t ies were u p only slightly during the same period. In fact, between May 1998 and May 2000, t he founda t ion ' s ne t assets nearly doubled to $585,000.

Meanwhile , the groundbreaking for Canton's new Human Services Building in Cherry Hill Village - which will house the foundation and Growth Works'juve-nile justice programs - is likely in Sep-tember. Site plans have been approved by the planning commission and town-ship board. Bids for construction of the 14,000-square-foot building will be taken next month. It will be financed jointly by the township and through federal Com-munity Development Block Grant funds.

It will represent a necessary and well-deserved change from the current offices on Michigan Avenue at Sheldon, used as a township recreation center in the days before the Summit.

If this is the first you're hearing about these accomplishments, we're not sur-prised. Call it a tribute to Foundation

President Joan Noricks' quiet, competent leadership and the dedication of the foun-dation's board of directors. With th i s group, the foundation ha s been more intent on doing good things than making a lot of noise.

Credit also goes to some 800 donors who made contributions during 1999 and 2000.

But somebody needs to blow the foun-dation's horn and it might as well be us. We can't th ink of a single program or project that has meant more to the well-being of the Canton community during the last decade. What the foundation pro-vides goes far deeper than a shiny, new subdivision or retail development.

Scholarships to local s tudents , short-term financial and emotional help for families in need, character-building pro-grams for area children, supporting area efforts in the ar ts have all been on the foundation's agenda. Hundreds of local residents have benefited directly during i t s 10-year miss ion and m a n y others have been touched in some way by this organization.

Begun with the premise that municipal government can't be all things to all peo-ple, the Canton Community Foundation has morphed from a simple alternative to township hall to a true, local institution. The Observer salutes its progress and looks f o r w a r d to t h e n e x t decade of accomplishment.

Incumbents represent best chili®® in Wayne-Westland

It certainly is refreshing to see a new ?ace, Pat r ic ia Mitchell, in the Wayne-Westland school board race.

, : She's challenging incumbents Mathew McCusker and Ed Turner in the June 11 race for two four-year seats . Mitchell brings a fresh perspective to the school boa rd e lec t ion, bu t on ba lance t h e Obse rve r looks a t t h e i n c u m b e n t s ' records and endorses them for re-elec-tion.

McCusker has served for some 17 years on the board and is current president of t he Mich igan Associa t ion of School Boards. Turner's served diligently, too, and h a s been involved in community ac t iv i t i e s inc lud ing t h e YMCA and

• Wayne-Westland Junior Miss. 1 ! Both men have been conscientious in

carrying out their board duties, and we encourage voters to re turn them to the school board June 11.

The incumbents have helped to oversee bond-financed construction work, which voters approved in 1998. That work is approaching completion, and the district can take pride in the improvements to school buildings.

Both McCtisker and Turner are highly visible in our community, a t t end ing a number of school events to meet students and their families. They're committed to education.

We urge all Wayne-Westland voters to vote in the school election June 11. We recommend M a t h e w M c C u s k e r and E d T u r n e r , the incumbents, be re-elected.

i3 deserve Schoolcraft nod r A new era is on the horizon for School-c ra f t College. On July 1, longtime School-c ra f t vice pres iden t Conway J e f f r e s s assumes the presidency with the retire-ment of Richard McDowell.

On May 16, ground was broken for the 55,000-square-foot addition to the Water-man C a m p u s Center . The Vis taTech Center will include expanded space for the college's nationally known culinary a r t s p rogram, for a s t a t e -o f - the -a r t s information technology center and for ^auditoriums for college and business pre-sentations. ' ' I t 's an exciting time to be associated 'w^th the college that has taken a leader-js^ip position just when community col-l e g e s a re ga in ing new respec t as an i ihportant and key component of post-secondary education.

It's no wonder that incumbent trustees Mary Breen , Br i an Broder ick a n d Richard Reaume want to continue in t he i r posi t ions. They a r e being chal-lenged for the three, six- year terms oh the seven member board by Fred Bolden of Canton and Kevin McNamara of Livo-nia.

We believe the three incumbents have , earned the right to continue serving the [college through these exciting times and •ilrge the election of Mary Breen , B r i a n iHroder ick and R icha rd Reaume . ) <Each of these candidates has been part jof a harmonious board tha t has worked well together and with the administra-t ion. That board has been instrumental in deve lop ing the f i n a n c i n g for t h e Wa te rman expansion and for keeping Schoolcraft's technology up to date. They also came together to select a qualified internal candidate to replace McDowell with little of the usual infighting t h a t goes on during the selection of an admin-istrator.

Breen, Broderick and Reaume each bring a strong background to their roles.

Breen has been a school teacher and administrator. She also has a long histo-ry of political involvement. She is partic-ularly aware of the changing na ture of community colleges and supports efforts to keep Schoolcraft competitive.

Broderick is a lawyer w i th a back-ground in publ ic policy. He says h is major focus is on finding new financial resources for t he college and to keep Schoolcraft affordable for students.

Reaume, appointed to t h e board in 1999, brings business and technical expe-rience to the board. His expertise in com-puter systems is especially important as Schoolcraft makes its bid to become a major center for technical business train-ing.

While we endorse the incumbents we welcome the interest of the challengers.

Bolden and McNamara would both bring interest ing perspectives and tal-ents to the board. . Bolden, who ran last year for the coun-ty commission, is a computer expert. As an Afr ican-American he would b r ing another voice to the board and says he is interested in bringing more diversity to the campus.

McNamara, the son of Wayne County Executive Ed McNamara, says he would bring strong political skills and an ability to attract private, state and federal fund-ing to the college. We urge him to contin-ue his interest in leading fund develop-ment programs for college if he is not successful in winning election.

We believe the three incumbents will provide the new president with the sup-port he and the college need and urge the election of M a r y Breen, B r i a n Broder -ick and R i c h a r d Reaume.

• Questions library On May 16 I attended the Canton

Public Library Board's Meeting. I have been attending meetings as a member of the public for over a year now.

The stated Objectives of the CPL state, in part, that the library "will continuously solicit, welcome and con-sider the views of its owners," the own-ers being the citizens of Canton. By way of a Board decision of Nov. 15, 2000 a policy of public participation was implemented which in part states:

"The public will be allowed to partic-ipate as items on the agenda come up. They must first be recognized by the Chairman and then will have a 5 minute time limit to speak."

With a waive of his hand, without a vote by the Board, Dr. James Gillig, chairman, unilaterally rescinded the policy and advised me I was not going to be heard on the issue at hand - the discussions with the Mark Fisher Group regarding possible endowment and fund-raising projects for the library. Mr. Fischer's group is being paid by the library a fee of $4,000 per imnth apparently to assist the library in obtaining endowments and/or other annual fund endeavcjrs. The Fischer group has been paid a t least $24,000 as of April 1, 2001 towards these fond . raising goals. The group stands to earn $48,000 for the calendar year 2001. .

By comparison, the library in 2000 spent approximately $500,000 on library materials.

A plan which includes attempting to obtain $25,000 endowments from the likes of Yazaki, Kmart, Meijer and . other area business certainly has merit. Why has Dr. Gillig chosen to quash the public participation on this matter? Why was I not allowed to inquire as to when/where/ and the method to be employed by the Fisher group to get the plans underway? Apparently, the staff and the Board may be the agents to actually solicit the funds, then why are we paying the Fisher group this kind of money? More importantly under what authori-ty does Dr. Gillig silence his clients, the public, in contravention of the Board's own policy. Dr. Gillig vaguely referred to consulting the Board's attorneys on the matter of public par-ticipation. Are not the Board's attor-neys the public's attorneys as well? How do Dr. Gillig's actions conform to the stated objective of the library. I would invite everyone to review this situation and make their thoughts known to the library board. The Board is elected to serve the public.

Apparently there is another agenda. Roy I. McCutcheon

• Bad drivers I have two children who attend ele-

mentary and junior high in Canton, and I cannot believe how parents drive when dropping off their children.

For several years I have witnessed parents who act like ambulance dri-vers while dropping off their children. It seems like an easy task to pull into a school drop-off zone, wait your turn in line, get close enough to drop off the child, and proceed out of the zone. Simple, or is it? With our world becoming so busy, and immediate, what happens is we can't wait three-five seconds to stay in line and drop them off. What we do is cut off other parents, drive in the outside lane, go

at least 50 mph and put everyone at risk of being run over.

I spoke with the assistant principal at my son's junior high this week and suggested they put cones in the second lane of the drop off zone to stop people from racing through while dropping off the children. He told me they tried that and what happened was the par-ents ran over the cones. Every morn-ing I point out bad drivers to my son and tell him what not to do when he begins driving. We wonder why road rage is becoming more common place when we as parents are teaching our children how to be as dangerous and disrespectful as possible when drop-ping them off to be educated.

I have some advice for parents when dropping off your children: Wake up a little earlier sc you're not in such a rush. Think about how your children perceive your driving. Remember that when a child gets run over in a drop off-zone or a school parking lot, it may just be your son or daughter. Also with all the violence and road rage increasing every day, remember who taught those drivers early in life how to drive. Driving safely and being ' courteous to others are lessons they need as soon as they are big enough to see out of the window of your car.

• Dirt road a mess We have a health hazard in Canton

Township on Saltz Road between Beck and Ridge which needs to be taken care of immediately

The dust on this dirt road is an unhealthy menace. After complaining countless times to the Phoenix Yard for Wayne County Roads, I complained again on April 30 to Mr. Gilcox, the manager there. He informed me that it was his responsibility and that the road should be at least "watered down daily and calcium chloride put on it every three months," especially with all the construction going on in the neighborhood. This had not been done on Saltz Road between Beck and Ridge.

I have also complained to the Wayne County Roads Field Office. On Sun- . day, May 7 ,1 spoke to Margaret -operator 5, phone 955-9920 - who told me my complaint would be addressed. Still no change in the road.

We are choking down here. We can-not open our windows, we cannot let the children play outside, we cannot tend to our lawns without literally choking on dust every time a car goes by. I have to change my furnace filters every three weeks since the construc-tion started; before this I changed it every three months. The filter is black when I change it. Jus t think what our lungs must look like! When I walk out to my mailbox if a car is going by, it creates so much dust that it sticks to my lipstick on my mouth and I come in the house with my mouth coated with road grime.

Please help.us, Supervisor Yack, we need to breathe..

The township installed sewer and water mains on Saltz Road between Beck and Ridge back in September of 2000. Since then this road has not been maintained property, such as gravel and calcium chloride put on it. In the winter it was the mud; churned up so thick that it became impacted and frozen underneath my van to the point of nearly disabling the steering and nearly causing an accident. On the way to taking the vehicle to a

mechanic we discovered that it was the extraordinary amount of impacted mud causing the malfunction of the steering.

There are subdivisions being built on this road with a constant parade of dirt haulers and bulldozers going by with no letup in sight.

We need our road dusted down on a regular basis. I hope you have the clout to take care of this. Your fine town of Canton is not fine town on Saltz Road. It is a dirt ball.

• Matt was special The community lost a son, a grand-

son, a brother and a friend to many. Matt Taggie, age 22, was fatally stabbed while attending a birthday party in Ypsilanti on May 11 with many of his Plymouth and Canton friends.

Although he was our neighbor, sadly we did not know Matt Taggie, except to exchange periodic greetings while • walking by the home he shared with ; his parents and brother. We have got- ; ten a glimpse of Matt through discus- :

sions with some of his family members and friends, including bur niece, who . attended the party.

Matt was a special young man who touched many lives as evidenced by the hundreds of persons who attended his funeral, about 200 of them young people, many of whom openly wept during the service. ]

Matt was a good kid, a loving and ; thoughtful son, grandson, and brother - someone any of us would be proud to • call a friend. He will most certainly -never be forgotten, as he will live on in so many others. :•

This tragedy is a rude awakening for our community. Our kids should be ', ^ able to gather with their friends to eel- b ebrate a birthday in a nearby commu-'; nity. As parents, we should not have " to worry about their safety in such ah ; • environment. We are sure Sandy and-Ed Taggie didn't think they had to •!.: worry about their son's safety tha t Fri;: day night. He was with many friends:-young adults who are your kids, your; 1 i; neighbors' kids. What a tragedy. Our; ; condolences to Sandy, Ed and Nick. ;"

Co get broadband sooner, let the competition flourish

>hil Power

You're the chief executive officer of a growing igh tech company thinking about moving to Michigan. Locating near your big customers in he auto industry makes sense, and you like the ligh skills in the Michigan workforce and the [uality of life the state offers. But you need high-speed, high-capacity broad-

band Internet access to operate your business, far in excess of the 56K dial-up modem that is pretty much the standard across Michigan.

When you ask service providers like Ameritech how long it will take to put in a T1 switch or even get DSL service, you can't get an answer.

When you ask Comcast where its broadband back-bone will be in the

next few years, heyll say that 's "proprietary competitive infor-mation" and therefore confidential. When you ask our location specialist about putting your head-quarters in Birmingham, you'll be told the city tow charges service providers a fee plus a per-entage of revenues far above what other commu-lities charge. You think again and decide not to move to

Michigan. It's exactly this set of problems tha t led the

Michigan Economic Development Corporation to announce earlier this month an initiative called inkMichigan. The idea is to spur broadband ;rowth throughout the state, possibly to areas irhere broadband service does not exist, increase ompetition and even reduce rates. The program pould:

• Require service provider companies to make tublic where their networks are located. Current-y, such information can be kept secret.

• Set up common rules and service standards Dr broadband companies so customers would be reated fairly and reduce delays in providing ser-ice. • Rationalize the patchwork of local regula-

ions and fees to help service providers plan and iuild their networks. • Bundle demand for high-speed broadband

rom state government offices and possibly uni-ersities, school districts and local governments .s an incentive for service providers to build net-works. Unused remaining bandwidth could be old to business customers. According to the MEDC, Michigan is lagging

iehind other states in providing high-speed ccess to the Internet. No city in Michigan is on

the list of top-25 markets for fiber-optic networks. Auto suppliers, for example, need high-capacity broadband to download blueprints and design changes. Something like 80 percent of the tier-one suppliers are already connected, but of the remaining 17,000 small and medium suppliers in Michigan, less than 20 percent have access to the necessary bandwidth.

"Whether for business, government, health care or education purposes, high-speed broadband access is increasingly becoming a necessity, not a luxury," the MEDC report concluded.

But for Michigan - a peninsula off the main data flow network that runs across the country from the East Coast to California - getting fully connected to sufficient broadband is not going to be easy. Thus LinkMichigan.

Reaction to the program so far has been mostly positive. Business groups think access to broad-band is essential to compete in a global market-place, while universities and community colleges see high-speed Internet as a necessary teaching and research tool.

Business groups think access to broadband is essential to compete in a global marketplace, while universities

and community colleges see high-speedlntemet as a necessary teach-

ing and research tool.

Most of the opposition is coming from the ser-vice providers - Ameritech, Verizon, Comcast -who see their monopoly position threatened by efforts to open up the broadband market.

Much of their thinking stems from a long-held view that broadband, like copper-wire telephone service, is what the economists call a "natural monopoly." On this theory, it makes no sense for a company to string yet another set of wires to serve a community. Better to establish non-com-petitive service areas and have a public body reg-ulate pricing.

But in today's world, where economies compete globally in terms of their capacity to exchange and process complex information flows, such 19th-century thinking is archaic. Far better to open up the broadband market to competitive market forces. And if it takes a far-reaching ini-tiative such as LinkMichigan to do it, so be it.

Vote: Board members play crucial role in education

lugh Gallagher

The lazy days of summer are here. Our minds are on lakes and rivers, vacations to

>reign lands, baseball games and golf courses, hey are definitely not on schools. Could there be a worse time for school elec-

ions? Probably not, but on June 11, voters will be sked to decide which candidates will serve on

local school boards and the School-craft College board.

If past history proves right, very few voters will turn out for these elections. Even under ideal condi-tions, school elec-tions-draw a depressing!}' small percentage of registered vot-ers to the polls.

As the king said in "The King and

it is a curiosity. Opinion pollsters tell us tha t education" is always at the top of public con-erns. Business leaders are forever complaining bout the quality of young workers who seem roefully deficient in English and math. Both olitical parties focused on education in the scent presidential campaign, and President iush vows that he is "the education president." So why all this apathy at the polls? Some argue that it doesn't make any difference

'ho serves on the school board. They see little if ny difference in their neighbors who choose to on for the board - all sincere, friendly, eager to ive up personal time to serve the public. Many elieve that all the important decisions about ducation financing and curriculum are made at tie state level anyway and the boards have little lfluence. Considering the large amount of taxpayer

loney that goes toward supporting public schools nd the impact tha t the quality of schools has on sal estate values, it would seem that voters rould turn out in numbers just to protect their rallets. The t ruth is that school boards have a tremen-

ous influence over the direction of a school sys-sm, both in the allocation of resources and the uality of instruction. It is important that voters ike the time to know the candidates, listen and sad carefully about what they have to say ecause they are not all alike and their decisions 5uld have a rhajor influence over the quality of fe in our communities.

The recent downturn in the economy and a drop in sales tax revenue will have a profound effect on local schools. A well-chosen school board will find ways to maneuver through the crisis and provide leadership in dealing with the state on adjusting Proposal A to fit the new reality.

School boards also have an impact on curriculum. They oversee the school

administration and often the superin-tendent

The financial decisions a board makes will affect how many teachers the schools have, class size and the quality of books, lab equipment, com-puters and other materials. Are these things important to a candidate or is his/her only inter-est in cutting taxes?

School boards also have an impact on curricu-lum. They oversee the school administration and are often asked to choose a new superintendent. A good board doesn't interfere with day-to-day operations but is always aware of the direction tha t the administration takes. Public schools are answerable to the public and the board repre-sents that public. If you don't vote, how can that board represent your views?

Some board members come to the board with an agenda. They support book banning or Cre-ationism or New Age massage or condoms in the classroom.

Should they be elected, they might pursue their agenda to significantly alter the schools (as the state board in Kansas did a couple years ago when it voted to support the teaching of Creation-ism instead of evolution).

If you support any of these agendas, it's impor-tant for you to get out and support these people.. If you don't, it's important for you to get out and oppose them!

That's what democracy is all about. If you don't use it, you'll lose it and you'll allow those who have narrow agendas to gain control.

David Jaye just didn't get it; will his constituents?

Mike Maiott

In the end, former senator David Jaye just didn't get it.

Making his final speech to the Michigan Legis-lature's upper chamber Thursday, May 24, Jaye wrapped himself up in the Bill of Rights, patrio-tism and democracy. He went so far - with Memo-rial Day right around the corner - as to say that veterans had not fought and died in America's wars so tha t his rights could be "trampled" by the state senate.

"I know the Constitution says that this chamber has the right to determine the suitability of a sen-ator to serve, but it most certainly didn't give you the right to trample on my Sixth Amendment rights, on my due process rights, because the Michigan Constitution even says that every leg-islative and administrative proceeding must have due process," Jaye said.

What Jaye didn't get - and apparently still doesn't because over the weekend he began demanding apologies from the senators who oust-ed him in a 33-2 vote last week, - was that he was an elected official, he was part of the government.

The Bill of Rights was written, not to protect him, but to protect the rest of us from people like him.

Had he read down a little further in the Consti-tution, he'd have come to another phrase, in the 14th Amendment, that mentions "equal protec-tion of the laws."

What tha t means is tha t the law applies to everyone equally. If it says that if average citizens can't, for instance, hit someone or drive while drunk, then presidents can't do that either. Nor can congressmen. Nor can bureaucrats or judges. . And state senators can't do it either.

Of course, there have always been powerful peo-ple who thought they get some sort of special priv-ilege by virtue of their positions. That kind of behavior was exactly what the framers of our Constitution wanted to get away from.

Perhaps it was Sen. John Cherry, D-Clio, who said it best: "I think that is what inspired the committee to come to the conclusion that Senator Jaye was no longer fit to serve was because he used his office, the privilege of his office, the privi-lege conferred on him by the public, as a sword and a shield, to allow him to do things that an ordinary citizen would not be able to do, and to protect him from standards of conduct tha t ordi-nary, everyday, hardworking citizens struggle

very hard to meet." Sen. Joanne Emmons, R-Big Rapids, put it well,

too: "Being a senator does hot give you a license $o treat employees differently than would be toleratt ed in the private sector. A male who not only hits but denies hitting a woman in spite of eye wit-nesses is wrong. Being a powerful state senator does not excuse such an assault. Being a powerful State senator does not make you immune from the consequences of your behavior, simply because

We likely haven't seen the last of Jaye. He has promised to sue. He

could run again for the same Senate seat..%

you are elected." Sen. Thaddeus McCotter, R-Livonia, put it this

way: "When I think about the equal application of law and fairness, I would like the people of Michi-gan to ask themselves a simple question: 'If I did what Mr. Jaye did, would I still have my job, and where would I be?' I don't think the answer you would get back is the same one that he asked this body to give to him.. . . I believe it was absolutely, unequivocally clear that Mr. Jaye hats used a mis-perceived sense of senatorial privilege as a sword and a shield against people less powerful than he, is. If we allow that to continue ....what we do not i

condemn we condone." We likely haven't seen the last of Jaye. He has "

promised to sue. He could run again for the same„ senate seat, and if voters choose to return him to office, there is very little senators could do. Jaye's district (the 12th) is in western and northern Macomb County.

But when he goes on the attack against sena-tors who nearly unanimously voted to oust him, accusing them of being unfair or political, don't you believe it.

BY STEPHANIE ANGELYN CASOIA STAFFWEITER : scasola@oe.homeeomm.net"

With superstars like Madonna, Aerosmit N'Sync and Jane t Jackson scheduled ti stop in and around the Motor City, it's

bound to be the best summer for concert-going « long while.

"Detroit is just a market of huge music fans" said Dave Clark, who works in event production and marketing for SFX in Northville. No one knows it better.

For Clark summer doesn't start until Dave Matthews Band returns to Detroit's Comerica Park: "He played the first show ever at Comerica Park and it was awesome." But Clark anticipates the second band to grace the stage at the new ball park, N'Sync, will earn its spot in pop music histo-ry. N'Sync is bringing along a 5-story high stage and a production like no one has seen to keep its legions of fans entertained. Clark said the "venue is taking off quite well", despite only hosting one concert last year. Not many tours are big enough to fill the COPA and timing a tour in between a busy baseball schedule isn't easy. Tours like N'Sync's will take days of preparation.

Anticipation While Comerica Park is the newest open-air

addition to the summer concert season, the DTE Energy Music Theatre (formerly Pine Knob Music Theatre) will again reign supreme with plenty of

-•festivals, reunion tours and anticipated performers "Perhaps thjs most highly-anticipated-is AreacOne, a

4 festival t h a t joins electronic masters like Moby and Detroit's own Innovators - , Juan Atkins, Kevin Saundersori and Derrick May - with some of hip hop's best, Oytkast and The Roots on July 24 'Detroit has always been a big town for techno, which is an element of the festK al," noted Clark. He believes the festival will sell out

OzzFest returns at the end of July, bringing all original members of Black Sabbath together agajn along with rock's new elite, Marilyn Manson and Lmkm Park. Jeff Corey, djrector of public relations at Palace Sports and Entertainment said that 's

SP

H *

Matchbox Twenty

about as big a festival as possible. Though the days of mega-tours like Lollapalooza

and HOARDE are gone, Corey believes package tours have seemed to take their place. "I would say there are more 'package' tours than in previous years, such as Black Crowes and Oasis, Paul Simon and Brian Wilson, Styx and Bad Company, Journey and Peter Frampton, Poison with Warrant, Quiet Riot and Enuff Z'Nuff, Asia/The Fixx/The Out-field/The Motels, and the list goes on and on," he said. "These package tours are attractive to the concert-goer since they offer more 'bang for the

buck/ By packaging themselyes with other head- m line-status performers, (these i tours have more l | clout and have more sales potential" 8

Metal heads have surely embraced the formula.® This summer Poison brings back the noise with t i j | Glara Metal Slam The original four-piece will be § 1 joined by cohorts Warrant, Enuff Z'Nuff and Quieffi Riot for one loud Independence Dav celebration Motlej Crue's original crooner, Vince Neil r e u m t e | | the Voices of Metal, with Ratt, Slaughter and

| Vixen, for a similar revival Aug. 19.

C o u n t r > f Country tans won t be neglected this summer as

performers like Tim McGraw Randy Travis LeAnn Rimes and the Girl" Night Out Tour Aug. 9 featur- SJ ing Reba McEntire, Martina McBnde and more Music lovers get a chance to travel back in time with special shows like Sisters of the Sixties, The Spirit of'67 and 70's Soul Jam m mid June

But the buzz on this summer's concertb really rests with the women of pop. Heavy-hitters like Janet Jackson and Rochester Hills' own Madonna will make rare and long-awaited appearances. Both"! pop divas are scheduled to play the Palace of I* Auburn Hills. Both have added second shows due to demand. And both will cost a pretty penny. Tick- K ets for Madonna's completely sold out Drowned World Tour, Aug. 25-26, sold for up to $250 each. N Clark anticipates the Madonna shows will be a highlight of the summer. "Who knows if she'll ever come back again," he said.

Stewart Francke looking forward to concert B Y KEELY W Y G O N I K - K A L E S K I STAFF WRITER kwygonik@oe.homecomm.net

It's raining outside, the kind of rain tha t , stops and starts like it can't make up its mind. The sky's gloomy with no sign of changing, but when singer/songwriter Stewart Francke walks into our designated meeting place with a newspaper under-neath his arm, and a smile on his face, the lyrics -"I've got sunshine on a cloudy day" - ring true.

He's one of my heroes, someone who gives me strength, reminds me that I have to move past my fear and anxiety, that every day is a fight, but spring, even this ugly rain, brings renewal.

We're getting together for two reasons - to talk about his June 8 comeback concert at the Baldwin Theater in Royal Oak - and catch up.

Reconnecting Stewart and I have something in common -

leukemia. He was diagnosed with the disease three years ago, and had a bone marrow transplant in October of 1998. Leukemia killed my husband, David on Dec. 17.

Stewart from page B1

Leukemia in September, went into remiss ion on Oct. 2, returned to the hospital Oct. 24, and never came home.

Stewart and I talk about how leukemia changed us - we're less materialistic, more compassion-ate, loving, eager to tell the peo-ple in our lives how special they are knowing there are no guar-antees on tomorrow.

Change is a necessary part of this journey. You can't stop it. Life goes on, tha t ' s the great mystery, even when you feel as if your life has stopped.

"It's been seven months since I've been able to play," Stewart tells me explaining how medical treatments sapped his energy.

He's feeling good now, and is looking forward to his concert.

"It's a way to reconnect with all of the people who have bought records and come to our shows," he said . "Now I'm healthy again, I'm working out, I look at it as a way of starting over."

S tewar t h a s been making music for a long time. He's recorded seven albums, and is working on a new one. Fans will hea r songs f rom all of his albums, and my favorite, the newly released What We Talk of...When We Talk.

"It 's really going to be a rhythm and blues type show," he says. "We'll have horns, a lot of singers and people on stage."

He's known the people he's performing with for a long time, and it gives him a good feeling. "Barbara Payton is just a terrific singer," he says. "She has a raspy tough voice like Jan i s Joplin."

Artistic challenge Music, that's what counts. And

while he can't place his music outside his experience with leukemia, Stewart is an artist who challenges himself stylisti-cally with each recording. He knowf audiences can be fickle, but enjoys exploring "the differ-ent shades and tones" of the gifts he's been given.

He's grateful to the people who have followed him over the years, listened to his music, and hopes that: "It's a source of com-fort and connection, something you can count on in a slippery world."

Soulful music Rhythm and blues speaks to

him - it's music with soul. He wants people to be entertained, and hopes they go home with something to think about, reflect on.

"I'm a musician and hopefully a story-teller," he says. "My job is to be a bridge between my experiences and others, to touch people on a level deeper than conversation."

When We -Talk Of...When We Talk ha s kind of a Motown sound. He's working on a new album that has a greasier, Mem-phis sound. , Life goes on, it's spring, and

summer's just around the corner. 'You look for little things that

keep you going," he tells me. "Remember Keely," he says. "They can't hit a moving target. Keep moving, even when you don't feel like it."

Doing something that 's rele-vant is important to Stewart. He founded the Stewart Francke Leukemia Foundation to help others in need of bone marrow transplants.

"I wanted to be an intrinsic part of the community," he said. "I'm happy and kind of proud that I make a living as a not famous musician. To make some-thing beautiful that resonates with people, some people would call it tilting windmills, it's the only answer I can come up with."

Fest features 'Smooth'jazz BY STEVE K0WAL8KI STAFF WRITER skowalski@oe.homecomm.net

Those who favor rock 'n' roll, rap or country and are attending their f irst V98.7 Smooth Jaz-zFest in Southfield this weekend may be su rp r i s ed to know they've already heard some of the music — by accident.

WVMV, 98.7-FM, is where you're most likely to find smooth jazz around metro Detroit. If it's not on at home, on your headset, or in the car, chances are it's on where you run errands or on the telephone while on hold.

Native Detroiter Tim Bowman, one of the scheduled acts at the third annual Smooth JazzFest, heard the title cut of his latest CD, Smile, while ordering a sandwich at Subway.

"I was standing in a Subway and they were playing my song,"

Bowman said. "They had it on and the workers were humming along with it. I was like 'OK, cool.'"

Smooth jazz superstar A1 Jar-reau headlines the list of acts at the V98.7 Smooth JazzFes t , which runs Friday through Sun-day outdoors on The Green in front of the Southfield Civic Cen-ter (Evergreen Road at Civic Center Drive). Among the local acts is Alexander Zonjic, who made a name for himself with a flute long before becoming the V98.7 Morning Show host when the station started 3 1/2 years

Zonjic's evolution in music has taken him from rock 'n' roll to rhythm and blues to jazz, to smooth jazz.

"Ninety-nine percent of my stuff now is on flute," he said. "I

never made it a point growing up to be specifically studying one genre of music. It's smooth jazz r ight now, definitely smooth jazz."

Zonjic calls smooth jazz "very melodic, rhythmic, accessible to large audiences." The reason this is the third annual JazzFest is because the first two were so remarkably successful."

Bowman went solo in 1996 with the first of three CDs, Love, Joy and Peace, f ea tu r ing hit songs Rapture and I'll be there. His second CD, Paradise, fea-tured the h i t Free. He calls SmoothJazz Fest one of "the highlights of the year."

"It's put together so well," he added. "Some of the best talent in smooth jazz is there. There's such a buzz around the city when it's coming."

'Center of the World' deals with indecent proposal BY DAVID GERMAIN A P MOVIE WRITER

: LOS ANGELES (AP) - With The Center of the World, director Wayne Wang set out to show a S£tise of computer-age disconnec-tion, how the touch of the key-board can undermine live human contact. : He succeeded, though perhaps

not in the way he intended, and not in a way t h a t makes for a captivating film. ^Center of the World is so

detached, so emotionally s tunt-ed, so forcibly contrived, tha t it's a i o r e to watch. That ' s a puz-zling result, given the heart and humanity of such previous Wang films as The Joy Luck Club and

Smoke. Topping off t he tedium, the

steamy sex scenes promised by the s tory l ine - a Vegas ren-dezvous between a lonely com-puter geek and a stripper - are about as sexy as shaking hands with a car s a l e sman who has sweaty palms.

To paraphrase Frank Zappa, making a film about sex is like dancing about architecture - the medium of expression just can't capture the experience. Sex in cinema generally is gratuitous or dull, and often both. It's the rare film achievement tha t handles sex with insight, and Center of the World isn't one of them.

At the center of Wang's world

are Richard (Peter Sarsgaard), a compu te r eng inee r a b o u t to become mega-rich from his com-pany's stock offering, and Flo-rence (Molly Parker), a garage-band drummer whose paying gig is stripping.

They meet at a coffee shop, they chat, he goes to her club for a l ap dance . S t a n d a r d boy-meets-girl stuff.

Rather than doing something totally crazy - like asking Flo-rence out on a date ~ Richard plays i t safe and offers he r 10 grand to spend a weekend with him at a Las Vegas hotel.

Florence agrees to Richard's indecent proposal, wi th condi-tions: "No talking aboiit feelings,

no kissing on the mouth" - and no actual intercourse.

There's also a strict time limit. B e t w e e n 10 p .m. and 2 a.m., she ' s R i c h a r d ' s pe r sona l sex s i ren. She 's off duty all other times, though available for casu-al conversation.

The screenplay by Wang, Paul Auster and Siri Hustvedt - cred-i t ed to t h e t h r e e u n d e r a pseudonym - is such a work of artifice tha t the film never has a chance.

Their cold-cash arrangement notwithstanding, Florence and Richard share a growing attrac-tion tha t Wang and his collabo-r a t o r s i r r a t i o n a l l y choke off, a p p a r e n t l y t h i n k i n g they ' r e mak ing a heavy s ta tement on contemporary isolation. Instead, they're just taxing the audience's

patience with a man and woman too stupid to take the baby steps needed to start a real relation-ship.

Unlike Nicolas Cage and Elis-abeth Shue's downward-spiral-ing charac ters in Leaving Las Vegas, Richard and F lorence s imply have no obs t ac l e s to romance and sa lva t ion , o the r t h a n t h e h i s t r i o n i c b a r r i e r s Wang and company choose to throw up.

Richard is characterized as a man more comfortable with com-pu te r s t h a n people. Yet Sars -gaard's Richard seems fairly per-sonable and socially adept, mak-ing it a real head-scratcher why this rich, bright, decent, hand-some guy had to hire himself a girlfriend.

And Florence e a r l y on is a

var ia t ion of the hooker with *a" heart of gold, whose inexplicable; t u r n to cold h o s t i l i t y is j u s t ' another clumsy affectation of the ! script.

The movie's one spark comes ' w h e n F lo rence ' s f r i e n d J e r r i l (Carla Gugino) stops by to t i t i fc l a t e and t o r m e n t t he couple? Jer r i is one more synthetic ele-m e n t pi led onto t h e mix, b u t Gugino's frantic, seductive, rag-ing performance steals the show.-

(Gugino, incidentally, played the wholesome secret-agent mom inSpy Kids. Quite a change.) -

Meet the French Kicks BY STEPHANIE ANGELYN CASOLA STAFF WRITER s c a s o l a @ o e . h o m e e o m m . n e t

The French Kicks might be new • to the rock scene, but they're living like bona fide stars.

When I called to speak with gui-tarist Matthew Stinchcomb last week X found the New York City foursome lounging on the East Coast of Maryland, fishing for soft shell crab and anxiously awaiting their summer tour. "We're living the life of a band that sold 30,000 records," he said with a laugh. "We're very good at being men of leisure."

The French Kicks have only been together for three years. The band hasn't even released a full-length record yet. But these child-hood f r i ends seemed to have struck a chord in the rock world.

The story "We started I guess it was the

summer of 1998," said Stinchcomb. "We played our first show that fall. Nick and Jamie, our original bass player, and I all grew up in Wash-ington, D.C. We knew each other since high school or even before."

After attending Oberlin College in Ohio together, they moved to New York City and met guitarist Josh Wise through a mutual friend. 'We hit it off instantly and moved to the country to get the band together."

The "country" was actually a small town in Virginia where the b a n d m a t e s went to write and record music - while working on and living at a friend's farm. "I don't th ink we set out with a (musical) vision in mind," said Stinchcomb. "We were seeing bands around. We wanted to make the music we wanted to hear -melodic, song-based, but still nasty rock."

The name The band says its name has no

real significance. "We were trying to come up with a name but every-thing was so loaded with some sort of meaning," he admitted. "That's wha t we didn ' t want ." Though the re ' s some debate as to who thought of the name, it was the

h

The French Kicks

French Kicks that stuck. All they wan t ask is t h a t people get i t right.

"The first time we played D.C., we were all so excited because we're from there," recalled Stinch-comb. "The city paper (announced) in big le t te rs the French Kiss (were playing)."

Detroit But there 's no mistaking the

Kicks here in the Motor City. The band - now consisting of Stinch-comb, Nick and his b ro ther Lawrence Stumpf and Josh Wise - has played Detroit's Gold Dollar twice and returns this Saturday. The band members had even toyed with the idea of moving to Detroit for a while.

Anyone who has caught the band live will notice an equality onstage. Three quar te rs of the band share vocals, a happy coinci:

dence according to Stinchcomb. "I think it's better that way. We all have a slightly different range. I can sing the higher part. It's a no-ego thing. There's no frontman in the band."

Back to work The French Kicks plan to head

to the studio with their producer Greg Talenfeld (Beck, Pavement,

Jon Spencer Blues Explosion) this* summer to complete its first full*® length record. The new songs don't' yet have names. "We're calling one" 'wakachalka' for how the guitar* goes," said Stinchcomb. »

In the meantime Britain's Pop-*-:, Tones label , headed by Alan, McGee (Oasis), will release the; _ current EP, Young Lawyer, over-: seas and later send them on their ; first European tour for four weeks.* The new material picks up where-Young Lawyer left off, he said.? "They're a lot more open, sparse® sounding. Some of it sounds elec-i tronic, the guitar and drum loops,1; but its not. There are still a lot of! three-part harmonies." I

The Kicks met Talenfeld;? through mutua l fr iends in the;; band Jonathan Fire Eater. "I like* the stuff he's doing," he said. "It's* really raw sounding." *

As is the French Kicks music.* Young Lawyer was almost com-!-pletely recorded live. It contains* enough crunching gui tar and" catchy melodies to get you hooked on the first listen. Hear it for youtH self this weekend. 2

alive last weekend with crowds spilling into Greektown eater-ies, snapping photos wi th the Spirit of Detroit, stumbling out of t he i r hotel rooms and hot-footing it to the Focus Detroit Electronic Music Fest ival and re la ted par t ies for t h r e e days straight.

F o r t h e second y e a r , t h e DEMF proved a s tunning suc-cess thanks to a wide range of performers - among them Ter-rence P a r k e r , Tor to ise , Mix-master Mike and Inner City.

After a generous dose of elec-tronic dance music percolating f r o m e v e r y c o r n e r of H a r t Plaza Saturday th rough Mon-day, my head is still humming to t he beat and is dizzy f rom the crowds. Here's a rundown of recollections for those of you who jo ined me in t he techno trenches and a hint of what of t he r e s t of you missed if you skipped town last weekend:

First of all, Friday 1 0 : 1 8 p . m . A r r i v i n g a t

Detroit 's CPOP Gallery for the p r i v a t e p r e - D E M F p a r t y I tread high-heeled into a sea of people who don't often mingle: The corporate sponsors (many of t hem pleased Ford employ-ees;, the artists and entourage (a quick hello to Derrick May and his friendly publicist J im Miller), the press (Mixer maga-zine's Doug Coombe got it all on film) and festival organizers (Caro l M a r v i n , C E O of Pop Culture Media, was dancing by midnight) . This "storm before the storm" honors techno pio-neers known hn Tho Innovator? • A; K,;. :iiuOr

son and Derr ick Aiu\ - who each took a turn on the tables, The a n t i c i p a t i o n b u i l d s one record a t a time.

Day One 2:15 p .m. Though crowds at

the underground Bacardi/Real D e t r o i t S tage a r e s p a r s e as B e r k l e y - b a s e d t r i o H a l o n beg ins to play, it de se rves a fu l l h o u s e . The i n t e r p l a y of d r u m s , bas s , s y n t h s a n d an electro-rock groove echoes and bounces off the walls as graffiti a r t i s t s sp l a t t e r a b r a n d new c rea t ion on the wal l n e a r b y . Music and art meld into one. A f r i end yells in to my e a r t h a t

the band deserves a later time slot, more exposure.

3 p . m . I ' h i k e ove r to t h e C P O P S t a g e , k n o w n for i t s t ruly danceable DJs and proba-bly t h e bes t overal l sound at the festival, to see Norm Talley k i ck ing u p his v in tage down-b e a t s , a so l id m a r r i a g e of h o u s e and techno. The crowd a round me couldn't stop mov-ing.

9:25 p . m . J u s t t ry ing to get down the s ta i r s back into the concrete j ung le of t h e Bacar-di/Real Detroit Stage is almost i m p o s s i b l e n o w . T h e f i r s t sprinklings of ra in ushered fes-t ival-goers to t a k e cover. But t h e h a r d - d r i v i n g b e a t s of A u t e c h r e d e m a n d my a t t e n -t i o n . T w i s t i n g t h r o u g h t h e crowd, I never manage to actu-a l ly see t h e s t a g e - I 'm not qui te 5 foot 2 inches tall. But Bri t ish duo of Sean Booth and Rob Brown m a d e i t loud and clear - they could?ve crowded t h e f loor f r o m t h e f e s t i v a l ' s main stage jus t like Germany's J a z z a n o v a w a s do ing a t t he moment.

Day Two 8 p . m . Ra in showers didn' t

h i n d e r a t t e n d a n c e ~ Today even las t year 's no-show Lau-r e n t G a m i e r m a d e i t to t h e DEMF's main stage. Engulfed in hazy blue light, Paris 's Gar-n i e r is in t he m i d s t of a two and a hal f hou r live set t h a t d e l i v e r s e v e n m o r e of h i s jazzed up techno t h a n the hun-gry crowd anticipated.

9 : 2 0 p . m . K e n n y L a r k i n ' s moonlit set a t the Motor/ MGD S t a g e is n o t h i n g l e s s t h a n inspirational. A techno name to be r e c k o n e d w i t h , L a r k i n draws a massive crowd just as a giant barge heads east on the waterf ront , south of the stage. Overlooking the majesty of the water , the view of Windsor and t h e sea of dance r s , I wonder w h a t al l t h i s m u s t look and sound like from the other side - a bombardmen t of different ages and ethnicities in the city.

12:30 a .m. Carl Craig's only performance all weekend - at his 10-year anniversary party for Planet E records, called All Access - is easily the place to be. In an unassuming building on C a s s A v e n u e , t h e p a r t y t a k e s over t h r e e l eve l s a n d i n c l u d e s some of t h e bes t in t e chno- IBEX keeps the mood going strong on the main level as guests wandered around the g r a s s - c o v e r e d f l oo r ; Mike " A g e n t X" C l a r k h e l d c o u r t s p i n n i n g d e e p h o u s e below; R e c l o o s e w a n d e r s u p s t a i r s wi th records and gir lfr iend in tow.

Family atmosphere makes Villa Maria memorable B Y J E N N I F E R P L A C I N T O

S T A F F WHITER

The Valente family's history is visible to any customer who enters Villa Maria Ris-

to. .~te, the newest addition to the family's fine dining legacy.

With T ,ily pictures dat ing back to the ear ly 1900s hung along the walls of the five-year-old restaurant, the Valente fami-ly cont inues to make h is tory with its delicious Italian foods. Worn baby shoes, an old wooden sled and washing board are some of the i tems hanging from the dining room walls which serve as reminders of the heritage behind this dining experience.

The late Al Valente, who was born in Detroit, opened his first family r e s t au ran t in Rosedale Park in 1973 with the help of his p a r e n t s , Al f redo and Mary Valente, who worked at Maria's Pizzeria. Alfredo immigrated to this country from Casino, Italy.

Al expanded his business with t h e opening of R i s to ran te Di Maria's on Walnut Lake Road in Wes t Bloomfield which h i s widow, Joyce, still owns today. He also opened Little Italy in Northville before taking on his last venture — Villa Maria. Al died in 2000 at the age of 65.

New look Formerly known by customers

as the "big pink house" on the southwest corner of Haggerty and Maple roads in West Bloom-f ie ld , Vil la Mar i a recent ly received a fresh, new look of on the inside and out.

"It rea l ly needed a l i t t l e facel i f t ," said manager Dana Cooper of the now yellow house.

While Cooper, 34, is not a member of the Valente family, each of the three remaining busi-nesses are owned and operated by family members.

Robert Gallagher, Al's nephew, serves as chef/manager at Villa Maria under the ownership of Mike and Lisa Jepko, Al and Joyce's son and daughter-in-law.

Gallagher, 34, has been work-ing for the family restaurants for

"I grew up in it," Gallagher said. "I worked a t Maria 's in West Bloomfield when I was a

kid." Gallagher continued that work

while attending Michigan State University where he received a degree in business. But the fami-ly business kept calling him back and, "I couldn't say 'no,' " he said.

Gallagher received his culi-nary training under Jeff Jepko, another of Al's sons who is chef and co-owner of Little Italy. Gal-lagher's brother, John Gallagher, is the other co-owner.

Desserts Desserts like Tira Misu and

some other Villa Maria menu items are prepared by Edna Gal-lagher, 70, who is Al's sister and Gallagher's mother.

some tasty and unique fares. "We have a lot of or ig ina l

pasta and veal dishes that you're probably not going to f ind in other places ," Cooper sa id , adding tha t the wine list also continues to grow.

Ga l l agher said the fami ly atmosphere of guests knowing the staff also makes the dining experience memorable. Cooper said it's neat to see the children of customers who were expecting when they first starting coming to the restaurant.

While there is often a waiting list on weekend nights, lunch and dinner are served weekdays typically without a wait.

Cooper attributes the quieter weekday envi ronment to the incredible amount of t r a f f i c along Haggerty Road. She said most people don't want to tackle the drive during their lunch hour because they fear they won't be back to work in time.

"It's horrible," she said of the traffic.

However, Cooper said, "The service is fast. We can serve a lunch pretty much as fast as any place."

And prices are reasonable — $6.95 to $13 for lunch entries.

The most d i f f icul t t a s k for Villa Maria owners is get t ing new customers in the door.

"Even after five years, people say they drive by all the time and never stop," Cooper said of first-time customers.

But the drive home from the newer United Artists Theatre, located off Maple and Haggerty in neighboring Commerce Town-ship, is snagging more cus-tomers.

"It helps wi th the Cooper said.

New man in charge N e w c o a c h :

Mike Vellucci has added the titles of general man-ager/coach to that of president of the Plymouth Whalers, ful-filling a dream he's had to coach this team. Vellucci suc-ceeds Pete DeBoer, who resigned last week to take a similar position with Kitchener.

Vellucci chosen to coach Whalers BY C . J . RISAK S P O R T S E D I T O R cjr isak@oe.homecomm.net

The Whalers got their guy. And it didn't take a lot of looking or

consideration or searching, either. All Plymouth Whalers owner Peter Kar-manos had to du was walk into a differ-ent o f'l i c a ( Co di [.) u v..: i r c - A re n a a n d talk to someone on staff.

On Wednesday, it was announced that Mike Vellucci. who was hired last sum-mer pre .-id.'Hi ,S {\v- W h . l i t w o u l d

Flit' I'm!!!'.- no era! -ui'pi'Ne. despite the sudden resignation a week ago of coach/general manager Peter DeBoer. DeBoer accepted a similar posi-tion with the Kitchener Rangers, an Ontario Hockey League r ival of the WThaiers.

Vellucci said since DeBoer's resigning, he's received ''hundreds" of calls regard-ing the job.

"My phone 's been r ing ing off the hook," Vellucci said at Wednesday's press conference.

Still, considering the short period of time between DeBoer's resigning and Vellucci's hiring, it appears only one man was actually considered for the job.

"I talked it over with Mr. Karmanos and he said to me. 'I want you to coach

and be my general manager, too,"' Vel-lucci said. "He just thought I was the right choice."

His background verifies that. A Farm-ington native — he graduated from Farmington HS in 1984 — the 34-year-old Vellucci first played hockey for Com-puware 's midget team., which won a national title.

n .t f,-- u, . .Oil;

Sajl i.'nkt-.' I'll v ;ii Lilt- lnu-t jifi lint<-[: Hockey League, helping it win a nation-al title, and graduated to the NHL and the Hartford Whalers.

Vellucci took over as president/general manager /coach of the Compuware Ambassadors in 1993. In his seven sea-sons in that capacity, the Ambassadors won four Nor th American Hockey League titles and two national champi-onships. Twice he was named the NAHL Executive of the Year ('94 and '99) and was NAHL Coach of the Year once ('98).

His regular-season record in those seven seasons was an impressive 241-82-27, a .689 winning percentage. For six-straight seasons, Vellucci guided the Ambassadors into the Gold Cup Nation-al J r . 'A' Championship Tournament,

winning it in 1994 and 1999. In a s ta tement to the media, Kar-

manos said: "We are very pleased to be able to fill this position with someone as qualified as Mike. Mike has proven he knows what it takes to be successful, having won two national championships.

"We are fortunate to have a person within our organization with his experi-ence. The fact he already knowrs the players and the staff should allow for a smooth, t r ans i t i on for everybody involved

li» he. '"I'd l;k< u> t h a n k P e t e r for g iv ing me this opportunity to coach," he said. "It's been a lifelong dream.

"To be honest with you, when I was promoted last year to president I pretty much gave up any idea of coaching. I thought Pete DeBoer would be here a longtime.

"I f igured I'd concen t r a t e on the administration end of it."

DeBoer's abrupt departure altered all that. It's hoped his sudden exodus won't change anything else with the Whalers, which ranks as one of the OHL's premier organizations.

Vellucci is well-acquainted, with many of the Whalers, both past and present.

wreck Churchill BY BRAD EMONS SPORTS WRITER bemons@oe.homecomm.net

The Plymouth Canton girls soccer team looked like a s t eamro l l e r Wednesday, dismantling host Livo-nia Churchill in a Division I district semifinal, 7-0.

The Chiefs, 14-3-1 overall, moved into the district final 1 p.m. Satur-day at home to play the winner of today's o ther semif ina l ma tch between Westiand John Glenn and Garden City.

Canton s t r i ke r Anne Morrel l , bound for the University of North Carolina, notched her 130th, 131st and 132nd career goals — all in the first half — as the Chiefs built a 5-0 lead.

Rachel Perry and Melanie Dunn also scored in the opening half for Canton.

Stephanie Johnson contributed a pair of second-half goals.

Amanda Lentz assisted on two of Canton's goals, while Erica Aherns, Sara Heimerl, Ashley Rosaen and Dunn collected one assist each.

CANTON Start ing goalkeeper Briana Wol-

cott made three solid saves in the first half to preserve the shutout.

"We played a good ballgame and moved the ball well," Canton coach Don Smith said. "We've been playing pretty well, even in the games we've lost we've hustled and worked hard. We real ly haven ' t had a letdown game."

For the first time in school history* Canton was not s ta r ing rival Ply-mouth Salem in the face during a district encounter. The two teams' were split up this year. Salem is in the Northville district.

"It's nice not to have that pressure' game on your back, but it real ly doesn't matter," Smith said. "It just feels different because this is the first time in 39 seasons — between the boys and the girls — tha t we haven't been in the same district."

Rocks overcome injuries, advance BY C . J . RISAK S P O R T S E D I T O R cjr isak@oe.homecomm.net

Sure, it 's a numbers game. The more goals you score, the better off your soccer team will be.

Bigger and better. More the merri-l ( . High,-: a n d h ighe r . Right*?

We!', not in a!' ;-i.Stance-It was great for Plymouth Salem

when it put three goals on the board against Farmington Hills Mercy in a state district opening-round game Tuesday, played on a soggy field at Mercy. The Rocks' 3-0 t r i u m p h advances them to today's district semifinal against Novi, to be at 6:30 p.m. at Novi's field, Meadow's Stadi-um.

The '0' wasn't such a great number for Mercy, which ended its season at 5-7-3. Salem is 12-4-1.

And there was another '3' that did-n't sit so well with the Rocks.

In the f i r s t half of Tuesday ' s match, defender Stephanie Baron suffered an injured knee and left file

SALEM game. The extent of her injury was unknown.

Baron was the third starter to go to the sidelines for the Rocks. Team captain Mom--or ( . n n nU-vV e.-jLU i'U L>;kC;-' .. \.0l iV 1L ifc'ti AoaOCisi-tion all-Division defender, suffered a knee injury in Salem's first game against Plymouth Canton and was" lost for the season.

Over the weekend, forward Kellee. Mullin, a first-team all-WLAA per' former, injured her ankle, which forced her to miss the Mercy match. She could return against Novi.

This is not the time of year to be without three starters, two of them . seniors . For tuna te ly agains t the Marlins, Salem took advantage of its opportunities often enough to keep its season alive.

The Observer & Eccentric/ THURSDAY, MAY 31, 2001 (CP)D5

Canton DI

9-1 under interim coach Dave Hebestreit , was outshot 19-7. Canton also had more crosses (15-1) and headers (18-13). Churchil l was only bet ter on restarts (5-1).

"The first seven minutes we played pretty well," Hebestreit said. "But Canton was able to counterattack and control the tempo.

"Our biggest problem was our inability to deny the ball served in and our inability to mark the back side. They just kept knock-ing crosses back and forth across the field. And they have more team speed."

Whalers - DI

While with the Ambassadors, he coached fu tu r e Whaler s t a r s such as David Legwand (now playing with Nashville in the NHL), Justin Williams (playing for Phi ladelphia) and Brent Johnson (now with St. Louis).

He's also coached cur rent s t andou t s such as Damian Surma, Ja red Newman, Nate Kiser, Andre Robichaud and James Wisniewski (from Can-ton).

"Not many things will change this year," Vellucci said. "And as far as coaching, not too much will change.

"I'm an emotional coach. Play-ers will know where they stand with me. My door's always open to them."

It won't be easy following in DeBoer's footsteps. The former coach guided the Whalers to the brink of the last two OHL Cham-pionships.

Now it's Vellucci's turn, to see if he can take them to the sum-mit.

Salem - DI

midfielder (and another all-con-ference selection), scored goals in each half to help the Rocks over-come the loss of Mullin. Inbe-tween, Salem got a score from Sara Schupra that made it 2-0 at the half.

J a n a e Bucks ass is ted on Schupra's goal and took the cor-ner kick midway through the Sfcnnd half t ha t Sarkesian lapped in for the third goal, giv-ing Bucks a second ass is t . Rachelle Marshall assisted on Sarkesian's first goal.

For J i l l Dombrowski, the shutout was her 11th of the sea-son. Unlike her counterpart in the Mercy net, freshman Mon-isha Berkowski, Dombrowski was hardly tested.

"I give tons of credit to their goalie," said Mercy co-coach Renee Larabell, herself a stand-out keeper when she attended Mercy and Michigan State. "She took away any opportunity we could get on them."

Not that Berkowski was lack-ing. "Not at all," said Larabell. "She's really stepped up for us this year."

Mercy's problem was simply a lack of opportunities. For the most part, the more aggressive Rocks kept the ball in the Mar-lins' end of the field. Mercy tried to counterattack, but Salem's superior speed ruined any of those chances.

"One thing we lack is speed up top," said Larabell. "We have speed in back (on defense), but not enough up top.

"I thought it was an evenly-played game. They had three good scoring opportunities and scored on them."

Although Salem got the 'W', coach'Joe Nora wasn't particu-larly pleased with his team's overall effort.

"We had a real good first half," he said. "It was a good start to the playoffs. But once we got up 2-0 and especially when we were up 3-0, we started to coast.

"That's something we'll have to address."

Indeed, Nora used Mercy as an example. "They never quit," he said. "I like that about Mercy. That's what I talked to my team about , having character like that.

"I think we have character. We just need to bring it out. That's what not having a captain will do to you. You have to play the full 80 minutes."

The Rocks will have to after this. Novi was the second-best team in the Kensington Valley Conference; should Salem han-dle the Wildcats, it will meet the winner of the Northville-Livonia Stevenson match for the district title Saturday. Stevenson and Northvil le met in the WLAA championship game last Thurs-day, with the Mustangs winning.

The district final will be 1 p.m. Saturday at Northville.

Spectacular: The Plymouth Symphony Spring Home tour features the home of Silvio and Georgia Scappaticci, a 5,000-square-foot Cape Cod on five acres. Visitors are greeted by this fountain, designed and hand-built by Silvio.

B Y K E N ABRAMCZYK STAFF WRITER kabramczyk@oe.homecomm.net

Lrst you'll pass a pond. Then you'll see a waterfall and a bridge leading to a gazebo. Then suddenly it hits you - a spectacular

water fountain, designed by the homeowner him-self, that sits in the center of a circular drive.

It's all part of the beauty of the home of Silvio and Georgia Scappaticci, one of the homes fea-tured on the Plymouth Spring Home Tour Sun-day, June 3. The tour showcases a variety of architectural styles and home themes.

If you enjoy old architecture, you can view a Victorian-style home in the village. If you favor renovated structures, you'll enjoy touring a tradi-tional subdivision home with newly expanded and redone rooms that adds precious square

were chosen for historical significance or decor," said K.C. Mueller, home tour organizer.

"People today just love to go and get decorating ideas," she said.

Remodelers will enjoy the tour, too. "When you look at the (Stemberger) home, they did so much of it themselves," Mueller said. "The l Carol lo > home wa& redone in Countrv Fx-ench."

deer. He mixes about 800 pounds of oats <-r>rn and molasses every 10 days, feeding thivf nf'tlu-deer at a time from three posts sticking up from

the ground. A home owned by Walter

and Mary Menard features everything from 7,000 square feet of radiant heated floors to a waterfall n n th° first and second levels.

Walk into the home and you'll find the following: six fireplaces, nine bathrooms, a library, an oval office, a 3,000 bottle wine cellar, a 10-seat movie theater, a four-story ele-vator, exceptional crown mold-ing and woodworking, and granite and Corian counter-tops.

The home features Indiana limestone both inside and out-side the home. There's two 18-foot tall great rooms.

The fourth floor not only houses a bedroom and full bath, but a 2,000-square-foot gallery, representing at least 25 artists from around the world.

Victorian revisited

Chuck Avis' home in Plymouth's Old Vil-lage is a Second Empire 1890s French Mansard house com-pletely restored to the Victorian era.

Avis replaced plas-ter walls, created new window moldings and floor trim, added a sun room and expand-ed the kitchen. Steam heat still warms the house, but the home also has an additional gas furnace and cen-tral air conditioning. The original slate tile

Redone with flair Lori and Larry Carollo restored their home

with a country French flair. Larry did much of the renovations before the couple moved in, knocking out a wall in the split front foyer, adding columns, a banister, planter boxes and a flower shelf.

Lori painted walls with rags and sponges, cre-ating a marbleized effect. Searching through Larry's supplies, she found joint compound, which she slathered on walls, mixed and applied acrylic paint and glaze, and then set in plaques.

A "mother-in-law" suite was reconfigured into a luxurious master suite with murals and drapery. Visitors will notice the dramatic change in design and architecture, thanks to David Michael's American City Design Studio in Old Village.

Visitors to Todd and Maureen Taliaferro's home are greeted by a brick paver circular drive and lush landscaping. Their home features a massive great room and a two-story fieldstone fireplace.

The league donates about $25,000 a year to the symphony. For them, the home tour is a major fund-raiser for the symphony along with endowments and sponsorships.

This fund-raiser for the Plymouth Sympho-ny League is one of the more fun ones for the league, said organizer K.C. Mueller.

"It's a chance for the owners of the homes on the tour to give something back to the community, too," Mueller said. "They allow people the chance to tour the home and give their time and homes to do this."

But for, homeowners, the tour brings a wealth of ideas, and helps cure the curiosity bug, too, especially those motorists on North Territorial who may recognize the Scappatic-ci home.

"People have watched this home grow for years, and now they can see the inside," Mueller said.

* Then suddenly it hits you - a spectacular water fountain, designed by the homeowner him-self, that sits in the center of a circular drive.

It's all part of the beauty of the home of Silvio and Georgia Scappaticci, one of the homes fea-tured on the Plymouth Spring Home Tour Sun-day, June 3. The tour showcases a variety of architectural styles and home themes.

If you enjoy old architecture, you can view a Victorian-style home in the village. If you favor renovated structures, you'll enjoy touring a tradi-tional subdivision home with newly expanded and redone rooms that adds precious square F,

were chosen for historical significance or decor," said K.C. Mueller, home tour organizer.

"People today just love to go and get decorating ideas," she said.

Remodelers will enjoy the tour, too. "When you look at the (Stemberger) home, they did so much of it themselves," Mueller said. "The (Carollo) home was redone in Country French."

Connecting with the past The Scappaticcis doubled the size of their great

Walk into the home and you'll find the following: six fireplaces, nine bathrooms, a library, an oval office, a 3,000 bottle wine cellar, a 10-seat movie theater, a four-story ele-vator, exceptional crown mold-ing and woodworking, and granite and Corian counter-tops.

The home features Indiana limestone both inside and out-side the home. There's two 18-foot tall great rooms.

The fourth floor not only houses a bedroom and full bath, but a 2,000-square-foot gallery, representing at least 25 artists from around the world.

Mail delivers reader reaction ABOUT ANIMALS

DR. BRAD DAVIS

h i s i n g i n g a long w i t h my F o g h a t

boxed set the o ther day , I r e a l i z ed I was runn ing low on gas.

After stop-p ing a t t h e service s t a -tion, and fill-ing out t h e forms to get financing for a f i l l -up , I

'heard two people talking about a column they had read tha t had

;-made them think about an issue ' in a different way.

The writ ing impressed them, with insightful perspective tha t influenced them greatly. In their opinion, the column was a pow-erful piece of writing.

If they had been talking about my column it would .have been a better story. But either way, I do get e-mail sometimes.

Banning breeds A column that pointed out the

banning of a specific breed of dog, such as pit bulls, doesn't cure anything and certainly is

- unfair brought an avalanche of .e-mail, mostly in agreement. . "The main reason that certain breeds of dog cause more injury and d e a t h t h a n o the r s is t h e types of people that seek to own these b reeds . Today we h e a r about dangerous pit bulls and rottweilers but a few years ago it was G e r m a n s h e p h e r d s and Dobermans. What will be t he next breed to be popular with those who are looking for a tough dog t h a t can be r a i s e d to be

.mea-n? I don ' t know, b u t t h e media will again blame the dog and not the owners..."

— Michael Marsh Watch the news for the Pressa

. Canario, dogs about the size of mastiffs. These dogs are good bets to be the next scapegoats for this problem.

tj.., r • /??.':A' C!; communities are now trying to

ban pit bulls. This exemplifies knee-jerk politics at its most basic, and worst, level.

School A c o l u m n abou t Michigan

State University College of Vet-e r i n a r y Medicine pointed out t h a t ge t t ing in isn ' t easy, but certainly isn't impossible (hey, I got in — how hard can it be?).

"Congra tu la t ions on a great article... As Ms. (Jeane) Ander-son (MSU preveterinary advisor) is quoted as saying in the article, 'There is so much negative infor-mation out there on the rumor circuit about the level of compe-tition to get in — all this discour-agement,' I believe your article is a worthwhile educational piece for p rospec t ive a p p l i c a n t s to read.

"Thank you for taking the time to clear some of the erroneous information applicants hear from people not aware of the long and involved process of becoming a vet! I thoroughly enjoyed reading your article and appreciate the clarity of its presentation."

— Hilda Mejia Abreu, B .A., M.S.,

Director of Admissions & Stu-dent Services Coordinator,

MSU CVM Kind words, but can you do

anything about my student loans?

Wildlife Another column seemed harm-

less enough, but raised the ire of a reader.

I wrote about destinations my wife and I had visited to view animal habitats, such as Alaska and the Everglades. The reader agreed those places are special, b u t f e l t I was r emis s for not m e n t i o n i n g p laces closer to home.

"...I am a bit frustrated.. . that you even felt the need to travel t h a t f a r . Wi th in t he s t a t e of Michigan there are incredible animal populations. There is a large elk herd between Vander-b i l t a n d W o l v e r i n e , M i . T h e y

visible a t dawn and dusk. Our family, like yours, also awoke to see a moose j u s t ou t s ide our she l t e r while backpacking on Isle Royale. Dur ing our h ike there we encountered several in very close proximity.

"There are also wolves (though they are generally heard and not seen) and foxes (too fr iendly) t h e r e . One does not have to r o u g h it to exper ience t h e wi ld l i fe , t he moose s a u n t e r around the lodge at Rock Harbor regularly too.

"Your column has made me want to head toward Maine to see the whales, but I wanted to make sure that you knew of the possibilities for wildlife experi-ences much closer to home."

— Andie Stewart A very good point. Sometimes

we get lost in our busy lives and forget what an incredible state we live in.

If there are any more sugges-tions for wildlife travel, in Michi-gan or not, e-mail me. Especially if you are offering a free week-end somewhere!

That's some of the e-mail I've received so far. Thanks to every-one who took the time to write. Now if you'll excuse me, it's time to change to the next CD, and I think this one has Fool for the City on it!

T a k e Home Message: Noth-ing mailed to me gets ignored. If you don't agree with something I wr i te , p lease send e-mails or write me directly. You can also write if you do agree, or just like the column. I do have an ego, yTtnow!

Store displays refurbished, old appliances in a 'museum' APPLIANCE DOCTOR

M a n y years before I arr ived in this country

and b e f o r e many of you were even born, Ed Bot-. turn S r . s tar ted a lit-tle manufac-t u r i n g bus i -ness in Brighton. His company pro-duced p rod -ucts used in

the instal la t ion and service of industrial air conditioning. . Before he started his business, Bo t tum rece ived a deg ree in engineering from the University of Michigan in 1933 and worked for the Ke lv ina to r Company .

rJOE GAGNON

There, he met some of the invent t o r s of t h e p r o d u c t s we use today. Those formidable years were instrumental in what Bot-tum would do with the rest of his life and helped develop him info an inventor.

His company, Refr igera t ion Research Inc., is still operating today with Ed Jr . involved. His father still comes to work during the week.

More t h a n 80 p a t e n t s have been g ran ted to Refr igerat ion Research . Whenever someone needed to know where to dispose of an older product, they called Bottum.

He kept many of the antiques he was asked to dispose because he loved these products, the orig-inal refrigerators in this coun-try.

Refurbished With the ability of his son and

staff, they refurbished some of t h e s e p r o d u c t s in to w o r k i n g order. They set aside a little sec-tion of their factory. After a little polish and elbow grease , they put the products on display for the public to view and bring back memories.

Believe it or not, we have a lit-t le m u s e u m j u s t u p t h e road from us tha t could be such a his-tory lesson for students and peo-ple of a l l ages. Re f r ige ra t i on Research seems to be a well-kept secret in Michigan. You can take the children or your entire fami-ly and visit this "museum," a t 525 N. 5th Street in Brighton. I suggest you call and make reser-vations to make sure that some-one can walk your group around. The telephone number is 1-810-

operating products when visiting t h e m u s e u m , a long wi th a F r e n c h design of 18.94. O the r units were used to cool water for air conditioning the Willys Over-land offices in Toledo until the 1940s. This operating unit is a r a re air cooled model, made in Denmark by Glacia for air condi-tioning, and contains F-12 refrig-erant.

The Crosley Shelvador's refrig-e r a t o r m a n u f a c t u r e r s f i r s t thought i t would be "tacky" to put food in the door of a refriger-ator. However, the convenience of having "twice as much food up f r o n t " p rov ided Cros ley w i t h huge sales increases which con-vinced other manufac tu re r s to try other designs to get around the patent.

Farmers helped Rura l e l ec t r i f i ca t ion d i d n ' t

develop in most rural areas until a f t e r World War II , so before then, manufacturers created the Crosley Icy Ball refrigerators for farms. Charged wi th ammonia and water and generated wi th the help of a kerosene burner, a box temperature of 43 degrees could be maintained over a 24- to 40-hour per iod to m a k e ice cubes. The re ta i l selling price was $59.95 including the cabi-net.

The first Kelvinator Refrigera-t ion Un i t was i n t r o d u c e d in 1916 by E d m u n d C o p e l a n d , founder of Kelvinator and later the Copeland Compressor Com-pany. All in all, folks, w h a t a place to visit.

In several columns I have com-plained about the high tempera-

tures found in many of today's newer refrigerators. While cut-t ing the grass recently, I went in to my old 1948 r e f r i g e r a t o r and pulled out a can of root beer. With my new fancy thermometer I found it to be 36 degrees. I then went into the pickle j a r located in the 6-year-old side by side in t he k i tchen. The t e m p e r a t u r e was 42 degrees.

Is it any wondier we loved the old refrigerators of yesteryear? It is the way things should be built, which are at the museum.

Passive cooling helps cut costs ASK DAD

HARRY JACHYM

W h e n I was growing up, we found pa s s ive (or

l e s s - agg res -sive) ways to k e e p t h e house cool.

With rapid-ly r i s i ng energy costs, now is a good t i m e to look a t t h e s e m e t h o d s to r e d u c e a i r -condi t ioning

costs. Moving air makes us feel cool-

er . S o m e t i m e s j u s t a s imple room or ceiling fan will do the trick. Window fans and whole-house fans force inside air out and d r a w in o u t s i d e a i r , b u t they're only effective when the outs ide t e m p e r a t u r e is cooler than inside the home. # My mother o f ten closed the

windows during the summer to keep warm air from entering the house. This is especially t r u e w h e n t h e r e was l i t t l e or no breeze.

In science classes we learned dark colors absorb heat and light colors reflect it. If you're decid-ing on a color to p a i n t your

house, keep in mind that white and light colors reflect up to 90 percent of r ad ian t hea t where dark colors can absorb over 70 percent of this energy.

Many homeowners in those days installed light-colored shin-gles with the idea they would he lp keep h o u s e s cool. I 've recen t ly l e a r n e d t h a t h e a t absorption of asphal t shingles varies little with color. Because of t he i r m a k e u p , even w h i t e shingles absorb almost as much heat as darker colors.

About half of unwanted hea t enters through windows, "Low-E" (emissivity) and other glazing opt ions on new windows can help cut much of this unwanted heat.

Window films provide a less-expensive alternative to window rep lacement . These a re t h i n , self-adhesive plastic films, often having a thin metallic layer. Not only does th i s f i lm help keep heat outside during the summer months, it also helps keep heat inside during the winter.

Additionally, these films help reduce fading of household fur-nishings. There are several good do-it-yourself kits on the market and area contractors who will apply this film.

Landscaping is a great way to

k e e p t h e s u n ' s r a y s off t h e h o u s e . Se lec t ive ly p l a n t i n g deciduous trees will shade win-dows or even whole sides of the house in the summer, yet allow sunlight - and heat - to enter in the winter. Nursery employees and garden experts can advise you a b o u t w h a t a r e t h e b e s t trees for your area and the tree's height and branch spread. Avoid dense cover, such as evergreens, which can block airflow. Trees and plants fu r the r cool the air by evaporating large amounts of water through their leaves dur-ing photosynthesis.

Awnings, shutters and louvers block the sun's radiation before it reaches windows, but they can r e s t r i c t a i r f l ow and v iew. Draperies, blinds and cur ta ins a re more convenient , but less efficient, as exterior shading. ' Eliminating heated warm air

from attics with proper ventila-tion or a power attic ventilator will keep the living area cooler.

Keep furnace filters and con-denser coils clean. Shade t h e condenser ( the outside pa r t of your air conditioner) but don't restrict the airflow around it.

GARDENING

Gardening books offer something new, GARDEN SPOT

MARTY FIGLEY

The f i r s t five books f e a t u r e d th is month are pub-l ished by T i m b e r Press Inc.

They can be ordered through your book seller or direct ly from the p u b l i s h e r : 133 S.W. Second Ave.,

Suite 450, Portland, OR 97204-3527; phone (800) 327-2878; fax (503) 227-3070; visit www.tim-berpress .com; e-mail publicity@timberpress.com

Timber Press offers a discount for multiple orders.

A Book of Blue Flowers, Robert Geneve ($34.95), is just the tick-et for those who are crazy about blue and all its shades.

Geneve shares his thoughts about the color and says, "My wife has been a great help to me. On one of our many garden trips I asked her, 'Is that flower blue?' She replied, 'If you want it to be, dear.' I have come to believe that her response was not a bad one."

After his delving into the "why" of blue, families and gar-den jjisage, more than 150 gen-era are described in detail . Their cultural requirements, along with personal comments and propagation techniques, as well as a list of species and cul-tivars, are included.

Breeding Ornamental Plants, edited by Dorothy Callaway and M. Brent Callaway ($34.95), will appeal to those who wish to create beautiful new plants.

The editors give an overview of the basic components of cellu-lar biology and the principles of genetic inheritance, then.a dis-cussion of the practical issues involved in any breeding pro-gram. This chapter is followed by the experiences of 14 leading experts, each devoted to a partic-ular plant or plant group, with clear ins t ruct ions on the mechanics of making a cross and propagating the selections.

Will you be the one to create a new, perhaps bluer, plant?

Daylilies, i r i ses The Color Encyclopedia of

Daylilies, Ted Petit and John Peat ($49.95), contains more than 1,200 portraits of this ver-satile flower, many of them con-

tributed from colleagues around the world.

They illustrate the great diver-sity of t he p lants and are arraiiged in different categories such as Singles, Eyed and Pat-terned, Doubles,. Spiders, Small and those of the Future.

The authors share the history, botany and hort icul ture, and explain specifically the charac-teristics breeders look for - such

as size, ruffling, color, disease resistance, and length of bloom.

The important work of many hybridizers takes us on a jour-ney that began when the flower was discovered in Asia thou-sands of years ago.

In Dream Plants for the Natu-ral Garden ($34.95), Henk Ger-ritsen and Piet Oudolf have put together an encyclopedic work tha t will offer good advice for

many years. They write, "We describe as

reliable all plants which, over the years, can be maintained in an average garden without too much in the way of pesticides, fertilizer and laborers." Regard-ing wildlife (page 62; don't miss): "A garden was mean t to be enjoyed, not worried about. Let there be food for all."

Pe renn ia l s , bulbs, f e rns , shrubs, biennials, annuals and more are described and illustrat-ed in the 1,200 photos. This book will open an exciting and new dimension to gardening. Great stuff.

Written by members of The Society for Louisiana Irises, The Louisiana Iris: The Taming of a Native American Wildflower, second edition ($34.95), covers every aspect of these beautiful flowers, with emphasis on the newest hybrids , hybr id iz ing techniques and cultural prac-tices.

What a nice gift for an iris lover in the temperate zones of the country.

T o u r i n g The 2001 edi t ions (for all

regions of the country — we're in the Midwest) of The Garden

Tourist, Lois Rosenfeld ($12.95, The Garden Tourist Press), will be of great help as you plan your gardening vacations for the year. Each des t ina t ion is briefly described.

Volunteer Ken Disability doesn't stop hospital worker

from making his appointed rounds S T O R Y B Y K I E R L Y A . M O R T S O N • P H O T O S B Y T O H A W L E Y

Greeting; Volunteer receptionist Cathy West talks with Ken Chrzan.

"I've been there so long it's like my second home," said Ken Chrzan, who's not your typical volunteer at Garden City Hospital. Next month he will observe his seventh anniver-sary as the first volunteer responsi-ble for delivering operating room schedules to departments through-out the hospital.

Chrzan, a Dearborn Heights resi-dent , ha s been repor t ing to Sue Methner, director of hospitality and volunteer services, since 1994. He first came to GCH through a day program managed by Buckingham Community Services. The organiza-tion provided him with a job coach who initially helped Chrzan become familiar with his responsibil i t ies and determine what his abilit ies and limitations might be with the position.

"He's just enthusiastic and always ready to work," sa id M e t h n e r . "Enthusiasm is his main asset as a volunteer."

The 36-year-old. who was born with Cerebral Palsy, has received support from several organizations, including AHS Community Services and Buckingham, who work with the physically challenged to help them find places to live and work in the community. Chrzan has been living on his own in a small-group home setting since moving out of his parents' Redford home in 1989,

E s f f p r tc, w o r k

W h e n you ask C h r z a n a b o u t his job at the hospital, he squeals with delight.

"I get to meet a lot of people I like. If I ever had to leave, it I would be very sad," said Chrzan who has a reputation for flirting with the nurses.

Lori Brist, director of the West-land Friendship Center and for-mer G a r d e n City Hosp i t a l employee, said she always knew when Ken was working on her floor.

"He greeted everyone. It was quite a p leasure to work wi th him," said Brist, who also knew Chrzan when they were students at John Glenn High School.

Chrzan received his education at Roberts Elementary School in Inkster, Cherry Hill Junior High School and was mains t reamed into J o h n Glenn High School after the special education pro-gram he attended was discontin-ued. Chrzan said he is a proud member of the 1985 graduating

class at John Glenn. "I knew him in school too," said

Brist. "He's a wonderful person with a very big heart."

Ironically, Chrzan was born a t G a r d e n City H o s p i t a l — a lmos t three months premature. He was hospitalized for 9 1/2 weeks before being sent home with his parents, Kenneth and Alice, and three sis-ters, Teresa, Barbara and Donna.

"I only weighed three pounds and I was 17 inches long," said Chrzan.

Chrzan currently lives with two other mobility impaired residents at a home near Beech Daly in Dear-born Heights . The staff f rom his support independence home, which helps Chrzan with his daily activi-ties, drive him to and from the hos-pital where he works four days a week from noon to 3:30 p.m. After his shift he relaxes in the cafeteria and eats lunch before going home.

"I used to take the bus to work. I really miss doing that . They tried everything to get the bus to pick me up here but Nankin Transit doesn't serve this area," said Chrzan.

The 36-year-old is proud of the responsibilities he has at the hospi-tal and the role he plays in the day-to-day ac t iv i t i e s . In addi t ion to delivering the daily OR schedules, Chrzan picks up outgoing mail from nursing stations on each of the four

For safety purposes he uses a hand-held mirror (left) to help him navigate his wheel-chair when he's backing up. At the end of his shift Chrzan (below) relaxes in the cafeteria and eats lunch, before going home for the day.

Warehouse became fine condos

REAL ESTATE QUERIES

ROBERT M. MEISNER

Are you aware of any success stories for lofts in the Mid-west?

Upon a recent visit to Des Moines, Iowa, I saw a warehouse that had been con-verted into loft condo-miniums in down-town Des Moines overlooking the Des Moines River and has been extremely suc-cessful.

The loft project may have been developed to keep pace with other Midwestern cities.

The loft development creates a new style of living which, based upon per-sonal observation, was very attrac-tive.

I am a contractor who built a home too close to a lot line. I am trying to collect from my insur-ance company by putt ing in a claim, particularly since my plans were approved by the homeown-ers association and I am being threatened by an adjacent home-owner. Do I have coverage?

In a recent similar case, the Florida Supreme Court held that where a contractor's policy covered damages caused by an "accident" but excluded coverage for damages "expected or intended from the standpoint of the insured," the contractor was covered.

The court reasoned that the con-tractor didn't openly defy the setback requirements.

The court made the insurance com-pany defend the case and otherwise provide coverage.

You are best advised, of course, to consult with your own legal counsel concerning this matter.

e and Sold

Competitive edge slices piece of home sales pie B Y D O U G F U N K E STAFF W R I T E R dlfunke@oe.homecomm.net

Last week's effort won' t sell th is week's house. A winner never quits, a quitter never wins. He or she who hes-itates is lost.

Competition can be tough with sever-al thousand Realtors here scrambling for residential real estate commission dollars.

So every l i t t l e and no t - so - l i t t l e advantage counts when hus t l ing for listings and matching buyers with sell-ers.

Paul Balogh, a Realtor wi th Cran-brook Associates in Birmingham, finds that an outgoing personality and tena-cious work ethic serve him well.

"Meet and greet - that's what it's all about. The No. 1 thing is meeting peo-ple, shaking hands. Part of it is having a personality so people can approach you."

Balogh scouts for prospective clients in seminars he organizes for first-time buyers. Other hunting grounds might not be so obvious - grocery stores and restaurants.

Tenacity is another thing. "It's just a will never to give up. It's

never say die. You can hit tremendous dry spells, but tha t doesn't mean you won't be back in business."

Developing a niche - his is an exper-tise in Canadian shoreline properties -also helps, Balogh said.

Use the mails A monthly newsletter pays dividends

for Tim Haggerty, an associate broker and par tner at Remerica Hometown One in Plymouth.

"It's a constant reminder to a large sphere of influence that I'm in the busi-ness and here for them," said Haggerty.

"I let them know how I'm doing with the family, something informative like

t a x impl ica t ions , s a l e s I 've made . Then, once again, I ask for business."

At least 575 newslet ters go out to family, friends, past clients. He also mails a couple of thousands post cards to prospective buyers and sellers in tar-get market areas twice a month

Hagger ty said h is budget for t he newsletter/ post cards runs $15,000 per year based on bulk purchases, and he considers it money well spent.

"It really endears me to clients, com-mits clients to me, based on knowledge of me and how I've been doing. It's a constant reminder - he has a family to support, there they are and he's doing business in your neighborhood."

Call back now Timely responses to inquiries keeps

customers happy and leads to referrals, said Kyle Fohl, a Realtor with Century 21 Today in Livonia.

"You return phone calls immediately, make sure they're aware of everything going on," Fohl said. "Probably commu-nication more than anything else. In this business, it always doesn't happen.

"I have people leave a message on my voice mail and they're amazed when I call back two minutes later. My cell phone is on 24 hours a day."

"My idea is to take care of the clients you've got and they'll send you more."

L i n d a Rea, a f f i l i a t e d w i th Real E s t a t e One in Troy, conf i rms t h a t experience and a good Web site pay div-idends. She also subscribes to a team approach.

Many hands, light work "A client-care coordinator takes care

of listings," Rea said. "I have a buyer specialist. I have a new construction coordinator. I have an accountant that keeps all the books, budget. We have a high-tech person who helps take care of the computers, Web site.

"It gives you more time for the cus-tomer," Rea said of her team. "If you're good, do enough bus ine s s , you can afford that . I'm not s tuck changing hats all the time."

Focus a n d good c o m m u n i c a t i o n impres s c l i en t s and l ead to o the r clients, maintains Judy Addis, an asso-ciate broker wi th Coldwell Banker Schweitzer in Clarkston.

"Follow-up and referra l business -it's that simple. If you give good ser-vice, stay in contact and follow up ... you will build a nice business.

"When I get all my (client) surveys back, they all agreed I stayed in con-tact, kept them informed and made the process very easy."

Regula r evidence-of-success post cards to past clients and friends some-times bear frui t , she added. "It will t r igger a thought process - 'I know someone in the same situation. Maybe Judy can help. '"

Listen carefully For Howard Novetsky, affiliated with

Real Estate One in West Bloomfield, it all boils down to s taying power and effective listening.

"Patience is important. A lot of us are looking for instant gratification. Nor-mally, it doesn't happen. I've been in the business 16 years, and I'll probably be in the business another 16. I'm not a flash in the pan.

"Somet imes, I ' ll work weeks and weeks and nothing happens. Then six months later or a year later, I'll get a call out of the blue. A guy will call and say, You never sold me a house, but you did this, this and this for me. I remem-bered you a n d r e f e r r e d you to my cousin.

"I'm a very good l i s tener . Tha t ' s another thing. Sometimes, I think they (other Realtors) try to push their own listings."

Great credit gives you great breaks

MORTGAGE BITS

TIM'TIMBO' PHILLIPS

R A N D A L L M A S T E R S / S T A F F A R T I S T

What do the follow-ing mortgage borrow-ers have in common? Doug completes a cash-out refinance on his home start-to-fin-ish in 10 days. Ericka,; a single mother who runs a home-based cash business, buys a home without having I to show any income. ^ Danny, a recent college grad, gets 100-percent financing on his first home at a very com-

petitive interest rate. Mary, an aspir-ing real estate investor, picks up her third rental property with just 10 per-cent down.

There's nothing magical about the bargains these borrowers received on their mortgages. They deserved the great deals they received by paying their debts on time. They did not miss payments then "double up" the next time. They did not leave high balances (in excess of 50 percent of the maxi-mum) on all of their charge cards. In fact, most had just a few credit cards and paid on each consistently.

Mortgage underwriters evaluate bor-rower reliability, and they know all the tricks." People who always pay bills on time will probably continue to do so. People who are chronically late will continue that pattern. Lenders rely heavily on credit scoring to provide insight into a borrower's character, and to help assess borrower risk potential.

Credit scores represent the statisti-cal probability of the borrower default-ing. Credit scores range from 400 (worst) to over 800 (best). A borrower with a score of less than 600 has a one-in-nine chance of defaulting. A borrow-er with a score of 700 has a l-in-124 chance.

The rewards: faster mortgage approvals, better interest rates and terms, less paperwork, less stress, larg-er loan amounts.

If you have a mediocre record, work hard to re-establish a good record. Even a small increase in your score can make a huge difference in the mort-gage rate and terms available to you.

Give yourself a break. Take care of your credit because it can certainly take care of you.

makes 30-year rates rise Mortgage ra tes around the country rose

this week but are still more than one per-centage point lower t h a n they were last year.

T h e a v e r a g e i n t e r e s t r a t e on 30-year fixed-rate mortgages climbed to 7.20 per-c e n t , u p f r o m 7 .14 p e r c e n t l a s t week , according to a nationwide survey released by Freddie Mac, the mortgage company.

Fifteen-year mortgages, a popular option for re f inancing , w e n t up to 6.76 percent this week, compared with 6.67 percent the previous week.

At the same t ime last year, ra tes for 30-y e a r m o r t g a g e s ave raged 8.62 percen t , nea r a five-year high, and ra tes for 15-year mortgage remained at a five-year high of 8.31 percent.

On one-year adjustable-rate mortgages, lenders were asking an average initial rate of 5.82 percent, up slightly from 5.81 per-

cent the week before. Las t year, one-year ARMs averaged 7.25 percent , which was the highest since 1991.

These r a t e s do not include add-on fees known as points, which averaged around 1 percen t of t h e loan amoun t for al l t h ree types of mortgages.

"Mortgage r a t e s caught up to other inter-est ra tes th is week amid signs t h a t hous-ing m a y be s t a r t i n g to cool down," sa id R o b e r t V a n Orde r , F r e d d i e Mac ' s chief economis t . " C u r r e n t job layoffs, coupled w i th lower consumer confidence, usual ly lead to fewer purchases of big-ticket items, like a house."

The government reported Thursday tha t new-home sales fell by 9.5 percent in April, the biggest decline in four years, to a sea-sonally adjus ted annua l ra te of 894,000.

The, answer may seem simple: "Call a roofer and have it fixed." But how do you get the most for your roofing dollar? With a little home-work, you'll be surprised at how much time, money, and aggravation you can save.

Aside from simply keeping you dry, your roof also holds the entire house together and gives the whole structure its strength. This is so important that in hurricane-prone areas, special fasteners are required by insurance companies to ensure that the roof stays on the house in extreme conditions. If the roof blows off, the rest of die house will collapse within minutes or even seconds.

Now, do you really want to mess around up there?

With proper care, a well-installed roof can last as long as 20 years before it needs replacement. That doesn't mean, however, that it may not need repair once in a while. Roof damage can begin in many ways. Tree limbs, high winds, hail, or even a carelessly-hit baseball can take their toll on the best roof.

"A lot of damage comes from nor-mal freeze-thaw cycles," says Tom Bollnow, Technical Director for the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA). "And, if you try to fix a roof yourself, you can often make the damage worse."

While the damage may not be apparent at first, it can grow until the precious shield between you and the elements is breached, and it's usually at the worst possible time.

Q. Okay, I 'm awakened in the middle of the night by a leak in my ceiling. What's the first thing I should do?

A. The first thing you should NOT do is put a pan under it and forget about it until morning.

"You can save a lot of time if you do some investigation right away," says Bollnow. "First, if you have an attic space that you can get to, go up

and see if you can find where the water is coming in. Often it will come in at one point and follow the pitch of the roof or the insulation to another point before coming through your ceiling. Once it stops raining, you may not be able to find the leak."

Once you have found the leak, says Bollnow, mark it for the con-tractor. While you're in the attic, go ahead and set up your bucket. It's better to put a catcher under the leak in the attic to help preserve the ceil-ing below.

"You also should note the weather conditions," Bollnow advises. "There are several questions you can answer that will help the contractor:"

• Did the leak start right away? If not, how long after the rain started did the leak begin?

• Was the rain light or heavy? • Was the wind blowing, and if so,

from which direction? Did the leak accompany the wind? If so, the wind may be blowing the rain under a loose shingle.

Q. Can't I just leave the bucket in the attic?

"It's not a good idea to just forget about it," warns Bollnow. "Even if the leak is small, there may be dirt or debris in it, and the next heavy rain could wash it away, revealing a much bigger problem." Besides, untended problems never get better.

Q. How do I start looking for a contractor?

Bollnow advises that you start with your local contractors associa-tion if your area has one.

"One thing they can do for you is recommend two or three contractors in your area," he said, "and it's better to get someone relatively close, because they can respond more easi-ly."

Bollnow adds that your own neighborhood can be a good source of information.

"Find out if any of your neighbors have had work done on their roofs

recently, and if they're happy with the job," he says. "Word of mouth is still one of your best resources."

Q. What do I do if the contractor tells me my roof needs to be replaced?

A. A little knowledge goes a long way here. If you know when your roof was replaced last, you can pret-ty much tell if he's on the level.

'The average roof lasts about 20 years," said Bollnow. "So, if you're close to the end of that, he's proba-bly right. If it's only three or four years old, it would have to suffer some major damage to need replace-ment. In any event, you will want to get a second opinion, and maybe even a third."

If there is a problem with a new roof, it probably is under warranty. You immediately should start with the installer.

Even if the roof is in dire need, Bollnow adds, "there's usually something he can do about the immediate problem until you can get some estimates and do it right."

Q. What is my liability if the con-tractor gets hurt on my roof?

A. Whether you're just getting an estimate or having major repairs done, you should make sure your contractor carries general liability and workers compensation.

"Your homeowners insurance will cover it, but it shouldn't have to," said Bollnow.

Remember, your roof is the key to the entire house. Take care of it while it's still in good shape, and it should give you years of good ser-vice. Neglect it, or try to fix it your-self, and you could be letting in a world of trouble.

How to get past the zoning board

X ^ u n l i t y f t G M A C I I "ifi^Real Es t a t e

Asking for zoning approval for your remodeling or construction project? Your local zoning board may just say, "Go ahead, make my day."

"Few homeowners understand the arcane, political process of zoning approval until forced to deal with it," says Richard Roll, president of American Home-owners Association. "It pays to do your homework before seek-ing approval from your local zon-ing board."

If you want to add on to your home or build a major renova-tion, you'll probably need to face the local zoning board.

These citizen volunteers may seem like friendly neighbors, but when they put on their zoning hats, they can be tough adver-saries.

It doesn't matter if it 's your local zoning board or your home-owners' associat ion board . Either group can tell you where to build your addition or how to operate your home-based busi-ness.

The best place to begin your crusade is with your neighbors. In some cases, neighbors oppose a project before the board

because they were not asked in advance. If you are planning on major changes, especially to the outside of your home, talk to your neighbors f i rs t and get their input.

Be sure to consult early with the local zoning office. The staff can explain the zoning rules and if you need a permit or variance for your project. Listen carefully; their advice will make the differ-ence in getting your application approved.

Another way to grease the skids is to hire a professional. Turn to a lawyer or architect who knows local zoning laws, how to write your application and how to speak on your behalf.

Don't give up because you fail the first time. You have the right to appeal, especially if you feel the decision was un jus t or wrong. It's never easy, but you may get the original decision overturned.
