Fall Fest absorbed bycontroversy

BY E D FITZG ER ALD A ^ D T .M . SMITH

The Fall Festival Board o f Directors has been incorporated by the City of Plymouth?— apparently to save skyrocketing liability insurance costs. But tlie move was made amid some controversy.

At Monday’s city commission meeting Carol Levitt, an attorney in Plymouth and active in Fall Fest since 1973, (spoke strongly to the council against the move.

Her voice; fell on deaf ears, however, as the council voted unanimously to approve tile incorporation of the board - I

Levitt argued at the meeting that the move would “ dilute” the Fall Festival Board and she described the move as

. “ a fast, quick move without much thought.”

No members o f the fall. Fest Board were present at Monday’s council meeting. ,

Cost of liability insurance for the Fall Festival last year was roughly $900. Now, the board will be covered

under the City’s blanket policy.

theBoard members approved resolution 7-3 at last Wednesday’s meeting. Three members were absent.

Don Skinner, representihjg the Plymouth Rotary, which began the festival 30 years ago, voted, for the proposal. He said the move would make the board feel more “ corr\-

Cantonites get reprieve

4

Cantonites can wait to pay more for their wateij and sewer rates, after the Canton Board o f Trustees decided to let the township absorb higher water rates fo r sijt months before passing the costs on to residents.

The Detroit Board o f Water Commissioners voted June 18 to approve a rate increase fo r the water it provides to Canton. The rate increase took effect Ju ly 1, and the first bills reflecting the increase w ill appear this month. |

W ith the higher wholesale water rate, Canton residents would have beeii paying $1.50 per 1,000 gallons, instead o f the $1.06 per 1,000 gallons they are now paying.

The Cahton board decided to wait fo r six months when a rate increase for sewer treatment may be approved. Then, increased water and sewer rates would be I factored in fo r Canton residents. |

The water rate increase came about, after, vtinee /other communities*/~

Gibraltar, Garden C ity and Taylor - renegotiated contracts directly with D etroit, thus ending a m ulti­community contract that kept rates lower than they would have been, according to Canton Finance D irector John Spencer.

! Crier went ta pnnt still no “ official”

results available tltat showed a clear winner. Some unofficial results had Baker ahead b; ■ sei eral hundred votes Late breaking rest Its from the Wayne County at this i nor ring showed Grimes still ahead by p *rce ntage points.

Baker believps hp has won the race — maybe

The fact is the race was too close to call when deadline arrived.

Grimes was1 unavailable for com­ment.

One fact is that the winner of the race will face incumbent Carl Pursell in November'sj general election -which has been the [ultimate goal of both Grimes and Baker.

Baker admjtted his strong hold in Ann Arbor, which earned him a 2-1 margin over Grimes in that city, “ pushed him over the top” and gave him a healthy lead.

“ Our proposal gained support, and we had a lot of people who came out and knew what issues that we felt were important,” JjSlSerjsaid.

Many people put Baker as a un­derdog going into the race, but Baker believes this was based more on media perception than fact.

“ We might have been; the underdog in the minds of the media, but we knew wejwere going to win. We knew that Grimes would outspend us 10*1, and that he had endorsements, but money and endorsements don’t go vote - people do,” Baker said.

The candidate also said that he is ready to face o ff with Pursell at the earliest possible date to debate “ the important issues, like military spending and Central America.”

Township ant| Canton signed contracts with Wayne County to be part of a sewer project for western Wayne County communities. On July l , 1983, Canton and Plymouth townships were “ kicked out” of the project, according to Hemming. I. .

Federal funding for the first phase of the sewer improvements was reduced from 75 per {cent to 55 per cent of the total project cost in October, 1984, Hemming said .

If the second and third phases of the sewer project receive no federal funding, sewer costs for Canton residents could triple, according to Canton Supervisor James Poole. Poole said that he received a notice from the DNR MondayJ telling him more en­vironmental studies were needed for the sewer project. “ Now, they’ve decided after 22 years they want some more environmental studies, and they want a blank check,” Poole said.

g Count y prefers Haggerty R<L, Livonia sites

W ilcox H ouse m oving to H ines P a rk ?BY T .M . SM ITH

The Wilcox House is not out of the shadow o f the wrecking ball yet, but it is very clc se.

The Fiiends o f the Wilcox House have ma le what they believe is the most important step in saving the historic h )use from destruction.

Last week organizer Cheryl Szynjszev ski received a 12 page report from the Wayne County Parks and Recreation Department, on several possible sites within the Hines Park system to relocate the house.

Parks Director Eric Rieckel said the report wis prepared by his staff, and while there are* “ several steps the Wilcox people must meet,” he believes the proposal has potential benefit to it, and could soon be realitv.

The Wilcox House is currently owned by Jack Wilcox, who has plans to demolish the house to make room for a high rise condominium.

The house sits near Kellogg Park in downtown Plymouth on the comer of Penniman and Union. The house was built by Charles Markham of air rifle fame.'

The Fiiends of the House is a recently organized group that has committed itself to preserving the house for historical and sentimental reasons.

Szyniszpwski, one of the leaders behind thp group, said this recent step is the largest move to date, and could be the most important step in the success of| the project.

Reickei said City Manager Henry Graper was also sent a copy of the report, but as of Monday Graper had not seen the ’ report.

SzynisZevfcki said Reickei and his committee looked at about 10 sites throughout Hines Park and gave recommejidations on which ones would n

group, the house and the parkThree sites were given high

recommendations by the park com­mittee, and will be looked at more in depth.

“ We are very, very happy about the report. Eric Reickei seems very excited and willing to help us. This report gives us a number o f possibilities for sites,” Szyniszcwski said. “ This is a big step, we really had to pin down a spot to put the’house before we went further.” .

Still the group is* under time con­straints. The house was scheduled to be demolished sometime last spring, but lack o f reservations in the condos gave the group one more time.

We jare still working with a deadline,! but that c&itinues to change with the status o f the condos,” Szyniszewski said.

The possible sites within the park include: I

•Haggerty and Hines Dr.: This area was described by the park study as picturesque, with major access from Haggerty - and Hines Drive, well drained | located in Plymouth Township and with room for parking.

The only drawback noted is that the area might be heavily used.

Summary: Highly recommended by parks.

•Parkiide-Newburgh Lake Area: This area was described as picturesque.

accessible, visable with room for parking and major utilities available.

The only drawback is that the site is located within the city limits of Livonia. ,

Summary: Highly recommended by parks.

•Wilcox Pond: This area was described as being located in Plymouth Township, with open sight lines and has the same name (Wilcox) as house.

The drawback list was more lengthy, bang that it has poor environmental factors, poor drainage and limited space.

Summary: Area was recommended but.with some reservations regarding suitability. ’

In fact, over the years, what with all the stars of vaudeville and theatre who per­formed here, you would have thought it was Broadway in New York.

Not a small midwest town’s main street opera house.

Even talking movies couldn’t do to the grand old place what a major fire, many years of neglect and then a condemnation notice would finally do. ’

Close its doors. Seemingly for good.But to the townspeople, the show just

people got together to restore this priceless landmark, a lot of our people asked what part they could play.

You see, we’re not just bankers.We’re part of the community.So we believe that sometimes it’s just

important to lend a hand as it is to lend »ne money.At First of America Bank, we’re proudwe were part of the impressive community

Dead skunk leaves lasting scentI am the kind o f person who

wonders a lot. I wonder atjout things that nobody has a right to think twice about.

Things worry me. I don’t (know why I am this way, but it can be scary at times. For instance I wonder why nobody has written a book [of "Sm all talk to make in the elevator.’ ’ This would sell m illions. |

I stay up nights wondjering why anyone would buy underwear out o f a large bin in a factory outlet store. A nd I worry about what happened to the actor who played Greg on ‘ ]The Brady Bunch.”

But most o f a ll, I h ive always wondered what happens to the lifeless animals on the side o f the road. The ones that have obviously lost in a game o f ‘ ‘Road chicken” to a large truck.

Fo r years I- wondered, while trying not to look too closely, wl to these flattened critters, o f flies and the sound o f their forever fate.

U ntil Friday I left this m orbid thought alone. Wondering about such things :is grotesque enough without actually checking up on thisjproblem - unprovoked.

Friday, however, was my day o f reckoning with this thoughi. Finally a reason to delve deep into tjhis subject was laid before.

By T.M Smith

I happens as a gang

cars

A Plymouth Township resident called. It seemed M r. Skunk met M r. Truck Bumper and lost, and he lie motionless on the road in front o f her house.

But as a ll good skunks w ill tell you, a skunk soul cannot go to skunk heaven i f it fails to leave a ‘ ‘lasting scent” o f its life.

This skunk w ill make it to heaven, but the resident was not- real pleased with the lingering memorial left by the dearly departed animal.

She wjanted this skunk gone.Plym outh Tow nship, however,

inform ed her that they don’t perform that task.

She \yas given a number for a outfit that would perform this removal ‘ ‘ for a nominal fee.” Now I can understand this woman’s reluctance to shell out $40 to have a dead skunk scraped o ff

, the roadway.She called bur offices as a last resort.

That’s right, when all else fails call The

Crier. I assured her, with no degree o f confidence, that I would get-to the bottom o f the story.

So, I pulled out the big phone book and started with “ anim al” and worked my way to “ health department” at every step o f the way I was greeted with "you want to do what! ”

A t each level I tried to reply without a hint o f laughter, that I wanted a dead skunk picked up. Each office had a sim ilar response. “ W e don’t do that! T ry a different office.”

So I plugged away, until I found a place that w ill take care o f the problem. Tucked away in some musty corner, o f the Wayne County Building, is a arm o f the Environmental Health Department that w ill remove aifimals who have moved to a better life .

T o this point, I am nof sure what the moral o f the story is. I feel as though a nagging question bias been removed - 1 just pray that Gneg Brady was not the guy who has the job o f picking up dead skunks.

predicament when it comes to political Turn to the editorial page" glowing endorsement for

Couldn’t the paper be swayed by a guy whose money pays ils reporters? Doesn’t it, at least, show that the candidate is so smart, he knows to cjioose the | right paper? Hopefully,

ople will make up their own minds.In the first place, if you buy a

njewspaper or turn on the television, yjou’d better be ready to take things

ith a grain o f salt.Which brings us to this year’s slate

f candidates in local primary races. The Crier interviewed several o f the candidates and then, well, then we sold them a few ads.| Running!for the U .S . House in the 15th District are four Democrats. We tried to get the stumpers to speak oh local issues. One, W illiam Gardiner, a ringer, and a follower o f Lyndon LaRouche.Jsaid the planet M ars should be populated.

Glen Kassel, a Republican looking ! ‘or the same seat, said the Soo Locks should be expanded. How could that ! lelp our district? M ore jobs, said Glen, >f those who would quickly become ex- ISth District voters.

In the 2nd District, Dems Dean Baker and iDon Grimes squared o ff. A month ago we shortchanged Dean when we Confused him with a con­servative politico named Deane Baker, a regent at U -M . Dean showed up at our interview with two women sup­porters. I [took o ff points when can­didates showed up with anything other than theiif wits (Ford, and county executive, {candidates Robert Ficano and Frank Wilkerson also brought - small entourages).

In the 10th District there will be a tight race I for a seat on the county commission. Susie Heintz, supervisor for Northville Township, w ill face Elaine Tuttle, treasurer for Livonia. A t the end of the interviews, the other Republican, Larry Schweiger, said everyone thought it was a “ two- woman race.” W ho said politics is a man’s world.

ED ITO R :The Plymouth Community Arts

Council recently held a “ contest” o f a new variety. In this contest, there were no winners.. The contest’s purpose (which,

incidentally, was publicized by The Crier for four weeks prior) asked local

j artists to submit an illustration, painting, etc. o f a fam iliar Plymouth winter scene to be used on cards that, in turn, were to be sold in order to raise funds to support local programs in the arts. A n award o f $100 was to be given to the best qualified entrant.

The council received minimal responses to this contest. However, a ■ few people did submit entries in hopes o f winning, or at least gaining some recognition- for their efforts. But the council, upon gathering to make their decision on July 28, suddenly decided to cancel the contest.

Why? W ell, from what this entrant was told, the council felt that response to the contest was poor (which it was) as well as the fact that they believed

" v ;■

he card project would not gc^jver (fell enough to make money. I was also told that the council didn’t, fee) here had been enough publicity. Orie as to won.der whose fault that is. 11 aw nothing posted around town to ake more people aware. The

esponsibility to publicize lies with the onsor -- and the effort seemed as

half-hearted as their intention to follow through on the contest. j

I’m afraid the council’s decision (based after-the-fact) leaves something to be said for their ethics arid reasoning. The council should have come to a solid decision B EFO R E announcing the contest and soliciting the hard work o f the artists. T o put it bluntly, they backed out on their commitment. j

It is a shame that the efforts o f the artists who entered will go unnoticed. Worse yet is the fa c t. that an organization like the P C A C will now probably have a few less supporters.

Whyignorance isn’t bliss in downtown Plymouth

The effect a newspaper has on attracting attention to an event may be impossible to measure. Results o f a s udy into thequestion would be, at .best, speculative.

A few readers, however, balled or visited last week to com plain about The Crier’s' coverage o f the “ Plymouth •Cruise,” two weeks ago. Those readers saw a direct causal relationship between a story we ran on Wednesday before the Cniise, and the high number o f youth, who showed ulp for the Cruise. | |

They said it was irresponsible for the newspaper* to print anything on the Cruise before the fact, that it only attracted more kids to clog downtown that Saturday night. |;

Although their concern is legitimate, 1 believe it is misguided in this case. i

Local police estimated that 3,000 cruisers hit Plymouth on that weekend. Organizers o f the Cruise said trey had distributed between 3,000 and 4,000 flyers on Idrivers throughout the Detroit suburban area 10 days before the Cruise night.

Out o f the Cruisers who showed that night, an observer might have guessed that approximately 30 per cent were from outside The Plym outh-Canton Com m unity. Certainly, Cruisers from Dearborn, Soiithfield and Farmington H ills didn’t read about the event in The Crier on the Wednesday before the weekend. j

A lso , those who believe that our local kids are getting their weekend plans from reading jThe Crier are underestimating the word-of-moufh factor among the local youth'. Even when

school is not in session, the kids w ill know about events that affect them long before this weekly paper hits the streets.

A nd, most importantly, a newspaper that knew about the Cruise beforehand and did N O T report it to its readers would be remiss in its duties to keep the readers inform ed — especially in this case.

Those readers who did not hear about the event before it happened should be properly informed (or warned, in this case) when city streets are to be swamped with thousands o f cars and onlookers. A s a reader, I would have been very upset to learn about the Cruise firsthand, trapped in traffic and crowds downtown, instead o f reading about and preparing for the Cruise ahead o f time.

Looking back, I think the net effort o f bur pre-Cruise story may have increased the number o f gawkers, some o f which were parents o f the Cruisers. The Cruisers knew what was going to happen before our story appeared. Another affect 1 hope our story had was to provoke conversation among parents with Cruise-age children. Ideally, the parents who read about the Cruise would then ask' their children,

i “ D o you know about this, and are you planning on going to this?”

If the tag o f irresponsibility has. to be placed somewhere, it should be with those parents who read about the Cruise and did not ask their kids about their plans for that night.

Less information on the Cruise would not have helped the situation. M ore responsible action by inform ed parents wouldhave.

K udos to cool h ead s o f cops alnd k idsED ITO R :T o Ch ief Myers:Yesterday, during our weekly

Wednesday management meeting, the Skatin’ Station spent time reviewing the impact o f the' July 26th “ Plymouth Cruise” on our Plymouth- Canton Com m unity. W e would like to go on record as commending you on the excellent job performed by your officers on Saturday night. Although the Skatin’ Station is located in Canton Tow nship, I am a resident o f the C ity o f Plym outh, as well as a voter and taxpayer in the city, and we are always concerned with the current “ happenings” anywhere in The Plym outh-Canton Com m unity. W e consider ourselves a community entertainment center for all age

groups, but because a m ajority o f our business deals with teens and young adults, we can really relate to the problems that your department has had to face.

We feel we have always provided the very .best in a disciplined, supervised atm osphere o f en­tertainment for the people o f our community. , However, the young people o f our area do not seem to want, this kind o f structured en­vironment at this time. They are now interested in “ cruising” or “ hanging around” in Plym outh, whether on M ajn Street, Penniman, or in Kellogg Park. W ithin lim its, it is the right o f every citizen to do so.

Unfortunately, some people feel that they also have the right to violate many o f the rules and regulations that we must a ll live by, whether we like them or not, in order to maintain the civilized society that we cherish. I am in my forties and am a divorced parent. M any o f the “ kids” today in Wayne

County are from divorced parents, and many o f them have had a hard time adjusting- to that kind o f situation. The youth o f today are subjected to an immense amount o f peer pressure, and overall I think'they have done a great job o f handling it!

W e feel that the youth o f our community need to be complimented fo r not allowing the peer pressure o f the few “ rowdies” in the crowd to entice them into sim ilar actions. W e hope that these young people realize that the Plym outh Police Department were present not only to protect the health, safety, and welfare o f the homeowners and businesses on M ain Street, but also those o f the par­

ticipants in the “ Plymouth Cruise.” If a full-scale confrontation had broken out, who knows how many young people may have been injured?

In the (same vein! we would-like to compliment the Plymouth Police O fficers j- and the Wayne County Sheriff j Patrol for not allowing the same few “ rowdies ” to cause them to act in an unprofessional manner. Having| had the opportunity to ob­serve this event fir: t-hand, I was veryimpressed with attitudes and exhibited by the people present.

Overall, I feel

Make a buck off cruisers downtownED ITO R :Like the rest o f you, I heard there’d

be a “ cruise night” in Plym outh last Saturday night; and like, it would appear, most o f you, I went to see it, too. W hat I saw 'after two passes down M ain Street was a happening, an event. People, young and old , were driving down M ain and .w alking, the sidewalks talking to friends and making new ones. M ost o f the cars were, if not “ real bitchin,” at least clean and courteously driven. People were smiling and happy and the only ones - causing anything resembling trouble tossed a few empty pop bottles on a lawn. Everyone was on their best behavior.

One o f the reasons some were on their best behavior was undoubtedly the heavy police presence. There were probably more police on duty that night than on call in a ll o f Detroit! For their part the police were initially

tlei:ed

well-behaved, but heavy presence h a l and practically no wrong.! I

A ll ojf these w el were told to leayi people [together c< and were arrested streets [they closet discouraged from This ' overreaction

they handled this situation, although I don’t think there were really two “ sides,” but rather a large group that wanted to have a peaceful, enjoyable evening, and a sm all m inority that perhaps wanted to cause trouble. Whether you’re a business owner, a police officer, or a “ cruiser,” no one wants to get hit in the head with a flying bottle, or get otherwise injured.

Under the circumstances, you could not have,done a better job. Good luck and keep up the good w ork!

Imagine if a ll those people enjoying themselves could spend money while doing it! This could benefit a ll. The people would enjoy themselves, the merchants could profit, Plym outh would reap taxes more than enough to pay for the police presence, and enterprising kids could make money turning in deposit bottles Sunday morning.

‘They think Tm nasty9«

B Y D A V ID PIERIN ISchool bus driver Joyce Dunn says

the kids consider her one o f the meanest drivers around.

“ They think I’m nasty,” she said.Dunn isn’t nasty, just concerned.She’s concerned about children’s

lack o f understanding o f how im ­portant it is to follow basic bus safety rules - so concerned, that she’s written abook.

Her book is titled - what else - “ Riding on a School Bus” and if

you’re a parent, she: wants you to buy it.

“ M any times, chOdren and parents aren’t aware o f the hazards when kids don’t follow simple little rules,” she said. “ The responsibility o f the driver is to take kids to and from school safely.”

That can’t be done, she said, when children are standing on the seats, waving their arms out the window and making too much noise.

These pet peeves o f all drivers along

with safetyurinologyillustrated

rales and school bus ter- ■ can be found in this

book.

which is fo r parents to to their children, costs

$4.93 ($6|t»y m ail) and was published by Vantage Press. It is available by calling 455-1910.

“ It toojc jme three years to get it (the

book) to this form ,” said Dunn who

also does wedding and portijait photography. She also did the book’s illustrations. I

So far, book sales, haven’t been big locally. Dunn said a few people have been interested and that several copies o f the book have been sold to schools and transportation departments in the Cincinatti, O H . area*.

“ I f it saves one childs’ life , that’s my basic goal, making money is not.”

. Heintz and Kopka will square o ff to fill the seat left by longtime com ­missioner M ary Dumas who an­nounced her resignation follow ing this term.

Heintz based her campaign going into the Republican prim ary on resolving the problem o f the huge deficit the county has stacked up. She also said that the 10th District is fastly becoming the biggest and fastest growing district in the county and deserved an experienced politician. «

One o f the m ajor differences bet­ween Heintz and Tuttle was the "fact that Heintz pledged to make the position a full-tim e job , while Tuttle maintained that she would be able to keep her job as C ity o f Livonia Treasurer. Heintz said she would step down from her position as Northville Supervisor. ■

H eintz also promised that one o f her first duties as commissioner would be to sefr up a “ priority list” for the county, with issues to be resolved placed in the proper kind o f order.

She said she would push fo r a ll the commissioners to pool their pet projects and then develop a list from that.

“ I have never seen any kind o f list showing county wide priorities, this needs to be addressed, and then this needs%o be follow ed,” she said.

Tuttle pulled ahead early in the n ig h t, to a huge lead, by taking more than 7 0 ' percent o f Livon ia ’s vote. Livonia released its results first.

Tuttle is currently the Treasurer o f that city, and H eintz knew a ll along that Livonia would be her weak nrea.' The third candidate in ,tfie rape,

Heintz said that she had hoped to be able to take 10 percent o f the vote in Livonia. She/got close, as she came away with 2818 percent.

“ It was less than I had hoped for, but it wasn’t that bad. What has

eiger, came in third happened is that 1 fell behind in Livonia and then I came back strong in Plymouth and Ncjrthville,” Heintz said. I

The hardest part for Heintz was sitting and waiting for her strong districtsjto start to trickle in.

1 knew that the voters in Plymouth

knew me and they knew how I voted, it was just waiting for them to come in ,’* she said.

Heintz w ill now face Democrat John Kopka in November’s general election. Kopka ran uncontested, and advances autom atically to the November election.

Continued from page 1 weeks, according to board member John Schwartz. The site may be on five acres o f land behind the Canton Historical Museum on Canton (tenter and Proctor roads, which the Canton Board o f Trustees allowed the library board to look at.

The new building w ill cost between $2.25 and $2.5 m illion, according to Schwartz. (

Library Board members said the current library was too sm all for the needs o f a growing Canton, and that the needed expansion could not be done at the current facility, on the third floor o f the Canton M unicipal Building.

Construction on the new library facility should take about 116 years,' board members said.

The Canton library now circulates more than 1,000 items every day and has the third, largest circulation fo r an individual library in the Wayne- Oakland Library Federation (W O LF), which has m ore than 60 libraries.

A fter receiving endorsements from ' m ajor newspapers and having led in polls, Livonia M ayor Ed McNamara has won the democratic primary in the Wayne County Executive race.

II’s likely that McNam ara will win the November general election in a heavily democratic Wayne County. He w ill face just one Republican can­didate, Robert M urphy, who has said he would take the job for just $1 a year. The four-year job pays $72,180 a year.

Finishing close behind McNamara was Wayne County Sheriff Robert Ficano. A lso Winning a strong race was Frank W ilkejson, who has served as assistant to B ill Lucas, during his term as county executive. Another top co ntender was John Hertel, currently the chairman o f the Wayne County Commission.l

Other candidates were: Gerald Berg, a follower o f Lyndon LaRouche, a dissident pro-nuclear Dem ocrat; Thom as G ondek, treasurer for Sumpter Township, who was credited with bringing that township’s financial matters under control, including an embezzlement conviction against a township official; Charles Nemeth, a

Warning: this job is not for everyone.

The hours are long, the people dealt With aren’t always pleasant and breaks

e few and far between.But the folks who run the election !ls see things in a different light,

hey work the precincts because they In joy meeting people and because they ;eel it’s their civic duty.

M y mother worked the elections hen I was a little girl and I couldn’ ait until I was old enough to olunteer,” said Betty Childs, who has orked in Plym outh Township recincts for 12 years and handled ibsentee ballots during last night’s irimary election. “ It’s interesting, it’s iard work but it’s a lot o f fun.”Fo r a day that starts at 6 a.m . and

;oes until a ll o f the ballots are counted (sometimes until 10 or II p.m.) workers in Plymouth Tow nship get' around $55. Precinct chairmen get $5 more. j

Precinct; chairmen or captains are in charge o f the paper work at the end o f the election day, double checking the numbers before sending the totals on to the county.

Four to|six people work a precinct. U p to four work with absentee ballots, but they’re not required to work as m a n v h o u r s

*‘W e don’t do it for the money,” said precinct five chairman Delores Canever Who has been working the polls for 14 years. “ It's our civic duty. W e’re not active in politics, so this is our way to serve the community.

M ost poll workers w ill say that being able to deal with people is an unwritten

q u a lifica tio n , especially during prim ary elections.

“ M ost j people are pretty nice,” Canever said. “ Sdme argue that they

seecan split the ir vote up and that can’t be done (dui ing the primary). ”

A nd then mere are the people who cast write ii i votes! Dorothy Bassett knows all ab out them.

Bassett, who was chairmen o f precinct two, said a local business man a few years! jack came to vote with his two-year-ol< daughter on his back.

She said that the man, whom she didn’t w art to identify, cast his daughter’s name as a write-in vote for

longtime politician from Dearborn who had unsuccessfully tried twice to unseat that jaty’s mayor Orville Hubbard; Samuel Turner, a current county commissioner, who has the support o f Detroit’s M ayor Coleman Young,- Michael Tifrea, who withdrew

from the race, but not jn time to have his name removed from the ballot.

The candidates agreed that possibly the biggest, issue facing the county executive is the county debt.

A lso bandied about during the campaigns was the possible abolish­ment o f the O ffice o f the Drain Commissioner. AH candidates either favored eliminating the office or in­suring that the commissioner was more subject to checks and balances."

The debt o f Wayne County has been estimated at $30 m illion. Ficano has said there was really no way to tell

as civicstate representive. j

“ I’ve never liked him since,” she said.

Plymouth Township Clerk Esther Hulsing is in charge o f all precinct workers, running the required training sessions and making sure that everything is organized before the workers get started:

“ I have a policy o f training workers before every election,” Hulsing said. “ The state. law says you have to train

:xactly, because “ Lucas had changed he bookkeeping - it could be upjto 160 m illion.” y j

Wilkerson took umbrage with barges o f excess, saying he and Lucas dad trimmed the debt by m illions, ahd Suggested a way to tighten belts was!to have Wayne County take over Probate Court.

McNamara cited fiscal measures he’d taken in Livonia as proof o f what lie could do for the county. He saidihe cut Livonia’s D PW and Fire Depart­ment without cutting service, and, taking a shot at Ficano, said, “ The Sheriff’s Department is not a sacred cow, either.” !

McNamara said, in reference to a top concern o f The Plymouth-Canton Community, it “ would be a terrible mistake to tamper with road funds.’ j

Another issue both McNamara and Ficano talked o f was indigent care. Ficano said the current couhty program “ lacked incentive.” f

“ You keep billing the county all you want, but you should set some aside,” he said. j

McNamara and Ficano also took jabs at each 'other concerning jen- dorsements. McNamara said he had. avoided seeking labor endorsements, but Ficano had not. I

every two years. I think that woul d be

too long especially with this method o f voting (punch card method).”

Hulsing also said that there arc no formal qualifications in becoming a worker. Poll workers must be registered voters with the city or township he/she is working for. j

“ I want somebody pleasant,” Hulsing said. “ It’s very important to be pleasant and learn to be helpful and be fairly intelligent.” j

B Y T .M . SM ITHThe Scott Regional Correctional

Facility, currently being constructed in Northville Township on Five M ile Road, is scheduled to begin housing prisoners in late fa ll, Lansing prison authorities said.

G a il Light, the Public Information Director for • M ichigan prisons in Lansing said that the prison has been set to open up in November, putting prisoners in all 550 beds; which w ill house “ medium” security prisoners, and employ 250 people.

“ This is a proto-type prison, and if it goes well there could be several more built in the very near future. This is the First prison that we are going to classify as “ multi-security” being that we will have some medium and some below medium security level prisoners,” she said.

Light said the correctional system has recently named John Jaybee the warden for the prison. Jaybee was unavailable for comment on the new prison.

Light said that Northville Township is currently seeking an injunction which would prevent the prison from

rison to open

Scott Regional Correctional prison in Northville Township prototype in multi-security prism s in M ichigan, is due to open in November. The 550 bed prison is a

opening early and housing a number o f prisoners before the November opening date.

“ Northville believes, that we would

be unable to provide the proper security, bi it a ll that is still in court,” sbesaid. ,

The prison is being built next door to

the Pheonix Correctional Facility on Five M ile Road near Sheldon Road, which is the other side o f Plymouth Township.

New assessment center pr omotes Canton cops

B Y D A N N ESS Pronjiotion through analyzation, not

observation.That’s the new policy for the Canton

Police Department when it comes to promoting officers to the position o f sergeant. And its sergeant assessment center js the first o f its kind in the state, according to Police Chief John Santomauro.

“ It’s a really novel approach,” Santomauro said. “ Canton has taken a position that the essence o f the police department is in the people,” and not equipment and technology, San­tomauro said.

The new assessment center is the first in the state to be used to promote mid­management personnel in law en­forcement, Santomauro said. “ In private industry, it’s used very ex­tensively,” he said.

Cam on had, in the past, used a more traditional method o f promoting officers to sergeant, using a written exam, an oral presentation, a service review and seniority points in deter­mining whether the person would be promoted. Santomauro said that method did not adequately determine the best leaders for the police departi nent.

S o ,i 3an Durack, personnel director for the township, met with police union officials, police officers and higher level police officers to.discuss a better: nethod o f promoting. “ It was a concensus o f opinion with all parties involvt d - there has to he a better way to do t us,” Durack said.

A ] iromoting process that was equitable and just as importantly, perceived to be equitable, was needed, Durack said. “ We had had some experience with the assessment crater p r o c e s h e said. “ We figured, ’well, why not fo r these k ind o f promotions?” ’

The assessment center was first used to pr< imote three officers to the sergeant position three weeks ago. The person le i consulting firm o f Bartel! and Bi rtell was hired to cany out the assessr tent process, Durack stud.

The first step in the process is a ip profile that , was derided iy Durack, Santomauro and' ownship and police officials, asically developed a profile o f e’d like to see as a sergeant,” said. ■ ' Iidates for the promotion then

fill ouf forms to be matched against the leadership profile, Durack said. This profile is used as the initial screening device] and is graded on a pass/fail basis, [he said. Out o f 17 candidates who filled out the profile, nine passed, Santomauro said. Those who did not pass are not “ bad cops,” Durack said, but were just not jready fo r a leadership position at this point in time.

A fter the leadership profile, the assessment process is broken into two parts: [ a written examination and an .

TRAVELERS CHECK DENOMINATIONS

The use of travelers checks has become a. basis part of traveling. Carrying large amounts of cash in wallet or pocketbook is inviting; monetary disaster. Theft or loss can put an effective stop to that long- planned and eagerly anticipated trip.

There are many reputable organizations that offer these checks and they can be bought at various places. No problem there. But the choice of denominations and quantities to buy can be rather puzzling. Should less checks be purchased in larger denominations or more in smaller amounts?

A good rufe of thumb is to buy smaller denominations-ten’s and twenty's--if you’re on a tour of various countries that you’ll visit in a relatively short period of time. The reason is that you might need, say...a couple rolls of film just before leaving that country and find you have to pay for them with a $100 travelers check. Then you’ve got to change what’s left into the. kind of money used at your NEXT destination. This could cost you something, even at a good rate ot exchange. It would be much simpler and less complicated to pay for that film with a $10 check.

Paal Makara was aot sitting for the entire East-West AS Star football game ia East la m h g last weekead. Bat eves whea he was sitting hb aioai was probably nervous. (Crier photo by David Pieriai)

E a s t - W e s t f o o t b a l l

N ot b a d fo r a littleB Y D A V ID PIER IA I

In a way, A lice M akara is relieved her son’s football career is over.

“ T o me, he’s my baby and everytime he’s on the fie ld ,” she said, “ I get nervous, just ask my husband.”

It’s her baby, Salem graduate and star athlete Paul M akara, that should , be nervous.

Every time he steps on the field, his 5-foot-10, 175-pound frame - which has been vulnerable to injury in the past - usually faces beefier op­ponents.

Well,- he was nervous Saturday afternoon at M ichigan State’s Spartan Stadium , but for different reasons.

M akara was showcased as one o f high school football’s elite in the M ichigan H igh School A ll-Star game — nerve racking in itself.

“ That first hit got the butterflies right out,” said M akara who (wouldn’t vou know it) was playing with a bruised calf. “ Right then, I knew I could play with these guys.”

M rs. M akara’s baby didn’t shy away at his defensive back position.

For the short time he was in , M akara managed two bone-crushing tackles and a recovered fumble at the half-time buzzer, contributing to the East’s 24-14 victory.

Not bad fo r a little guy.“ I feel real good,” M akara said. “ I

didn’t expect the coaches to play me as much. I bruised my calf the first day/ and had to sit out a couple o f prac-. tices.”

Fo r most o f , the game though, M akara was on the sidelines, hands on . hips, watching, cheering and waiting for the word to go in.

W hen he was in the game, he did his

job and looked pretty good doing it.“ W e’re proud,” said A lice M akara,

with every reason to be proud, just like Salem coach Tom Moshim er.

“ W e’ve been very fortunate in the last six years to have fivejjlayers in this game,” Moshim er said. “ A nd in the one year we didn’t have one in the game, Scott Jurek was selected but couldn’t play because o f a fam ily commitment.

“ H e’s a quiet kid who led more by example. H e did everything asked o f him . H e played halfback, quarterback and played in our secondary.”

A s a senior, the versatile M akara rushed for 680 yards on 99 carries, scoring six touchdowns. H e added 135 yards on six pass receptions, had six interceptions and fumble recoveries

and averaged 25 yards on 11 kickoff and punt .'returns.

Shoulder | and elbow surgery prevented M akara from perhaps greater Statistics and also ended a promising baseball career.

The fact that the all-star game was probably his last football game, saddens him , he said, but the honor wasgrea:.

“ It wa s a chance o f a life tim e,” he said. “ I jumped when they told me I was cho! en. jit’s a chance to play with the best. .

“ I’ll niss it (football), but more importantly] I’U be healthy the rest o f my life.j There's an'outside chance, though, i f strengthen m y shoulder, I’ll try again.

Nash smiles for x-ray camera

B Y D A V ID PIERIN IFor Dan Nash, the M ichigan H igh

School Football A ll-Star Gam e was time in front o f the big camera - x-ray camera, that is.

The Plymouth resident and Redford Catholic Central graduate played the first five minutes o f the game, before sustaining a shoulder injury that sent him to Lansing’s Sparrow Hospital.

“ It’s only a bruise, thank G o d ,” said Nash, who was able to make it back to the game in time to see his East squad route the West, 24-14. “ I caught a helmet in the shoulder from one o f our own guys. W hole thing just went num b.”

A t his offensive tackle position, the6-foot-4-inch, 235-pound Nash was instrumental in the East’s first scoring drive, only to suffer his injury on his team’s next possession.

“ It sucks,” he said. “ I got in a little, so I guess it could.be worse.

“ The week was great, though. I met a lot o f people. Before, these guys were justjnames and faces in a newspaper, now] I’m able to get to know them.”

Nash’s selection to the East A ll-Star team is just one o f many honors in his high school football career.

In his senior year on C .C .’s o f­fensive line, Nash played so j im ­pressively, he was named All-State by Associated Press, United Press In­ternational and the Detroit News.

Nash tackled, the books with the sameuJtou^mess, racking up a 3.94 over-aiTgrade point average and bring

recognized'’by the Detroit News with the j H .G . Salsinger Scholar-Athlete award.

In the fa ll, Nash w ill attend Stanford University on a football scholarship with plans to study aerospace engineering.

How anxious is he to start coljege?“ Real big. I leave Aug. 16th at 7:25

p.m . I can’t wait.”Anxious is an understatement.

B Y C H R IS F A R IN A For the first time the National

Am ateur Baseball Federation Senior W orld Series was held in Northville.

Northville has hosted the N .A .B .F . Junior Series fo r the past four years, but this is the first time they have hosted the Senior Series.

During the weekend eight games were1 played in order to arrive at the championship matchup.

Plym outh-Canton was the host team for the weekend and the parents and coaches from the area did an out­standing job said Bob Frellick, the

tournament organizer.

In the first game the Huber Heights W arriors lost to Shelby Utica TSI 10-8. Game two saw the host team, Plym outh Canton Craiger, lose to the 68th Precinct from Brooklyn New York 3-1. The 68th Precinct was later beat 7-5 by A1 Transfer, which hails from Renton W ashington, in game N o. 3.

Gam e four eliminated Plymouth- Canton Craiger from the double­elimination tourney when it lost to Huber Heights 12-4.

b y C h r is B o y d )

Huber Heights won he next two games, beatiiig the 68th Precinct and Shelby UticajTSI both w th 6-5 scores. A1 Transfer lost to Shelby Utica TSI in game seven 9-6, but still nade it to the Cham pionship game against Huber Heights.

• A1 Transfer came ou on top 24-3 for the championship troj >hy.

“ We’ve done a prettyhere,” said Frellick “ A n 1 we hope it’srecognized mittee.

“ H e admired mother and father, said Tow le’s sister M ildred M cGrath o f W arren, who was wii Edwin at the time o f his death. “ H e thought he’d give the money to a smaller college.”

“ W e’re delighted the university w ill be able to recognize the Tow le name h r establishing the two distinguished professorships at C M U ,” Associate Vice President for Development and Alum ni Bob Rulong said in a press release. “ This gift is special because Edward Towle was able to honor his father, who is a C M U alumnus, and therefore benefit forever the education and business programs. It shows how private citizens can-affect the quality ojf education through their generosity.
