Buried treasure
Metropark marsh
By Robin Fornoff
Journal Staff Writer
On this warm and bright autumn
morning there are dozens of wood
ducks prattling near a long-dead tree
trunk and a blue-winged teal skims
the water’s surface in a silent landing.
Last fall Fred Charbonneau of
Warren counted 300 loons here, a bird
whose haunting cry is usually
reserved for the remote north.
This is Point Rosa Marsh, a 40-acre
jewel tucked in a forgotten comer of
Metro Beach Metropark on the shores
of Lake St. Clair, a half-hour drive
from downtown Detroit.
watchers see trouble
That it remains intact is a testa
ment to the endurance of nature. It is
surrounded by illegal fill, huge chunks
of concrete, scrap wood and other
trash dumped by park employees at a
time wetlands were considered
swamps that needed to be filled, lev
eled and paved.
The marsh has survived years of
abuse and neglect to be rated one of
Michigan’s Top 10 sites for bird-watch
ing in virtually every publication on
the subject. It is a popular resting spot
each spring and fall for thousands of
migratory birds.
But Charbonneau and a small band
on drawing board
of stalwarts fear the marsh is dying
and a new park development may
obliterate one of the last remnants of
coastal marsh on the Michigan side of
Lake St. Clair. The park authority
and Michigan’s Department of
Natural Resources plan to build a
boat launch within 50 feet of the
marsh. Though both agencies say the
resulting noise, traffic and inevitable
pollution won’t harm the marsh,
Charbonneau isn’t buying the official
line.
“This won’t hurt. That won’t hurt. A
little something here, a little some-

Activists turn low place into new wetland
By Michael Betzold
Journal Staff Writer
John Erdevig clutched a sedge plant
as his 5-year-old daughter Zoya dug a
hole in the muck with her hands. All
around them, adults and children
were planting wildflowers in a huge
mud hole gouged out of a grassy city
park, giving birth to a wetland and
making a dream come true.
“I’ve always wanted to do something
like this,” said Erdevig, an Ann Arbor
attorney. “But I couldn’t do it alone. It
takes a cooperative effort.”
Environmental problems often seem
monumental. But Jeannine Palms has
always believed in starting close to
home and doing what you can. That’s
why she organized the Buhr Park
Children’s Wet Meadow, an innovative
community response to water pollu
tion.
Palms, a longtime educator and
activist, runs Blossom Home Day Care
Center from her home adjoining Buhr
Park, a wide swath of grass and ball
fields in southwest Ann Arbor.
Studying their surrounding environ
ment, Palms and her students noticed
runoff from snowmelt and rain collect
ing in a low spot in the park. On field
trips to nearby Mallet’s Creek, they
would see signs of pollution and mea
sure flooding after storms. DWIGHT CENDROWSKI / Special to the Journal

Leap to conclusion ends with foot in mouth
W eek after week I fretted,
if only for a few seconds,
over the spindly plant
whose normally sturdy
leaves had become so transparent
that the sun filtered effortlessly
through them. “That poor plant is
dying,” I would say to myself of the
forlorn looking thing that someone
had set in front of a bright window in
the church basement.
“It’s getting far too much sun,” I
mused. “Someone ought to move it
into the shade.”
That thought always disappeared
just as surely and quickly as it
entered my head. But last Sunday
was different. When I glanced at the
plant, I noticed something new and
disturbing. A skinny twig covered
with tiny green buds had sprouted
up in the middle of those pathetic
leaves.
“That’s it,” I said angrily. “Now the
poor thing has weeds growing in it.
Susan
Watson
I’m going to move it right now.”
And that’s just what I did. I took it
away from the window where it was
surrounded by other plants that
flourished in the sun and set it in a
shady part of the room. That little
rescue mission made me feel pretty
good ... for about five minutes.
Then the pastor picked up that
plant and put it right back in the
sun. Armed with self-righteousness
that attaches itself to the willfully
ignorant, I arched my voice and said
in my most schoolmarmish tone, “The
poor thing is dying. Why are you
moving it back into the sun?”
The pastor paused for a split sec
ond, then patiently explained to me
that the plant wasn’t dying. Far from
it. That weedy shoot was, he said, the
beginning of a blossom whose fra
grance is so rich and delicious that it
stakes a permanent claim to your
memory. Then he pointed to a few
new leaves on the edge of the dying
ones. Hearty and smooth, they
reached confidently toward the sun.
“It’s not dying,” he said. “It’s coming
back to life after years of neglect.”
Talk about feeling dumb. Not only
had I mistaken that blossom for
weed, I had completely overlooked
the healthy new leaves. I had been so
preoccupied with the imminent death
of the thing that I refused to see its
vigorous and lusty affirmation of life.
And once I accepted the fact that the
plant was dying, once I became
resigned to it. To me it became old
and feeble, something that needed to
be removed from the sensual intensi
ty of the sun.
But that wasn’t the worst of it. I
was also embarrassed by the flash of
arrogance that prompted me to move
the plant without bothering to ask
anyone about it. Without even think
ing about it, I leapfrogged to two
flawed assumptions: one, that out of
the dozens of folks who saw it each
Sunday, I was the only one sensitive
enough to remove the plant from
harm. And two, that whoever had
lovingly nurtured the other plants
each week somehow neglected the
spindly one or didn’t know how to
save it.
I felt dumber than dumb.
Blindness and arrogance had suck
er punched me in a church basement
on a Sunday morning. It wasn’t the
first time; won’t be the last. But
maybe, just maybe, I’ll be lucky
enough next time to look beyond limi
tations - both mine and someone
else’s - and search for blossoms just
waiting to explode.

Marsh fans

MARSH, From Page 1
thing there,” says Charbonneaii, a
leader of the Friends of Point Rosa
Marsh. “They keep compromising
these areas, and pretty soon you have
a situation like we’re faced with in
Lake St. Clair.”
He turns and points toward the
lake. Less than 100 feet from where
Charbonneau is standing in the park,
the sewage-polluted waters of Lake
St. Clair lap at a small sign reading
“No Swimming Today.”
The water has been off-limits to
humans most of the summer. A report
by a special Blue Ribbon Commission
blames much of pollution on munici
pal sewage treatment plants over
whelmed by the unabated construc
tion of new homes in Oakland and
Macomb counties.
“This is a treasure,” said Charbon
neau, “and it’s going to be lost.”
Park officials aren’t convinced. Both
they and the DNR say there is a need
for more boat launches and parking at
the park, a facility that can draw
500,000 people on a nice summer
weekend. They also say the marsh will
be protected by an earthen berm to be
built in the 50 feet of green space left
between the new marina, parking lot
and the marsh.
Hugh Horton, another self-appoint
ed friend of the marsh, believes the
real intent of park engineers is even
tually paving over the marsh. A plan
on the drawing boards since the early
1950s shows the marsh paved over
and connected to an access road.
Indeed, park officials have never
included the marsh in any of their
written material on attractions in the
770-acre park. There are no signs any
where indicating the marsh even
exists.
And the park’s chief engineer,
Michael Magee, recently acknowl
edged part of the park’s original plans
called for filling in the marsh.
“To the original planners of Metro
Beach ... ecology, wetland values and
biodiversity were not widely under
stood concepts,” says Horton, who
lives near the park in Harrison
Township. “They couldn’t imagine the
realities now.”
Horton adds that he thinks bureau
cratic park officials are simply trying
to complete a well-intentioned, but
faulty plan that hasn’t changed in
more than 40 years.
“It’s just crazy,” says Horton, who
with Charbonneau has fought for sev
eral years to save the marsh from
creeping development. It isn’t likely
Charbonneau, Horton or the rest of
the Friends of Point Rosa Marsh
will stop the boat launch from being
built.
The park has agreed to sell the lake-
front to the DNR, which is moving for
ward with plans to build the launch
next year. Numerous legal challenges
have failed.
And in the court of public opinion -
the court of last resort for this group -
there doesn’t seem to be much support
for saving a pocket of water and reeds
and wildlife.
“Our thought now,” says Charbon
neau, “is we may lose on the boat
launch, but we still want to save the
marsh. Because if we don’t do some
thing, it’s going to die.”
Meadow turns park’s low spot into natural water filter
The volunteers planted wild wetland plants and
seeds in the middle of the dug-up area, sur
rounded it with an apron of prairie plants on
higher ground, and spread a crop of quick-
growing oats over the whole area to provide
ground cover while the seeds germinate.
MEADOW, From Page 3
They decided to create a wet mead
ow in the often-flooded low spot in the
park. There, some storm runoff could
be held and wetland plants could filter
the water, cleansing it of some pollu
tants before it seeped into the ground
water and the creek, which drains into
the Huron River.
Day care and neighborhood children
and their parents raised $1,000 for
the project. The Ann Arbor Area
Community Foundation awarded a
$16,500 grant. A group of wildflower-
landscaping enthusiasts, the Wild
Ones, pitched in $100.
The students conducted a neighbor
hood survey on public knowledge, atti
tudes and behavior concerning wet
lands and waterways. They discovered
that about a third of the Mallet’s
Creek watershed is impermeable land
- pavement for sidewalks and drive
ways. Much of the rest is manicured,
chemically treated lawns.
Nearby schoolchildren and resi
dents got involved in the project, and
the city’s parks department agreed to
bulldoze the low spot in the park. The
students grew hundreds of plants
from seeds and seedlings and the
planting took place under clear blue
skies last Sunday. Erdevig, a friend of
a Blossom Day Care parent, was
happy to pitch in.
“What we have around here are a
bunch of overfed lawns,” Erdevig said,
with a wave of his hand. “With so
many people getting addicted to
ChemLawn, people want their lawns
to look like a golf course, and all those
pollutants run off into the water
shed”
The volunteers planted wild wet
land plants and seeds in the middle of
the dug-up area, surrounded it with
an apron of prairie plants on higher
ground, and spread a crop of quick-
growing oats over the whole area to
provide ground cover while the seeds
germinate.
Palms hopes eventually to expand
the wetland and build a boardwalk
over an area that is now a silt-filled
sidewalk. Long-term stewardship of
the area will become an educational
project involving area schools and
community volunteers.
She plans periodic fliers and com
munity meetings to keep people
informed about the progress of the
wet meadow.
“It will involve very careful monitor
ing for the first two years,” she said.
“We’ll have to watch for soil erosion,
do a lot of weed-pulling and periodic
mowing until the wetland plants are
well-established.”
Palms is under no illusion that the
wet meadow will do more than make a
dent in the runoff and river pollution
problem, but maybe it’s a start. Maybe
it will inspire others to do the same
thing. And it will make for a pleasant
change in the environment of the
park, with a marshy swale in the mid
dle of the expanse of grass.
For his part, Erdevig is looking for
ward to seeing the wet meadow grow
up along with Zoya: “It will be an
interesting thing to bring my daugh
ter here years from now and say we
helped plant this.”

Detroit summit sends
appeal to rap community
By Darren A. Nichols
Journal Staff Writer
Rappers Common Sense and No ID
want the killings to stop.
And they will do their part to get the
word out.
The young musicians will call for an
end to violence by young people when
they speak today at the Nation of
Islam’s second Hip-Hop Peace Summit
at Muhammad’s Mosque Number One,
14880 Wyoming, in Detroit.
The summit is taking place on the
second anniversary of the Million Man
March in Washington, D.C. This year’s
theme is young, gifted and atoned.
“This summit is vitally important to
the community,” said Minister
Mouchette Muhammad, coordinator.
“Hip hop is the voice of the young peo
ple. When children listen to rappers
like Bombshell, they see how they
carry themselves. They duplicate what
they see,” he said.
“They call this ‘the X generation.’
They’re looking at them as the lost or
unknown generation. To reach this
generation is to bring a whole new
day.”
The hip-hop summit is in line with
the Nation of Islam’s national agenda
to curb violence within the rap commu
nity. Earlier this year Minister Louis
Farrakhan held a national hip-hop
summit in New York after the deaths of
rappers Christopher Wallace (the
Notorious BIG) and Tupac Shakur.
In Detroit, the first Hip-Hop Peace
Summit took place in July. In conjunc
tion with the project, the Nation of
Islam sponsored the Detroit Love con
cert featuring local artists and the
release of the single “Silence the
Violence.”
Last year the Detroit Branch of the
NAACP also held its first Hip-Hop
Summit. Another summit is planned
for Nov. 8 at Martin Luther King High
School in Detroit.
Other speakers for today’s event
include songwriter and producer
Michael Powell, as well as radio per
sonalities Billy T. and T.J., the
Troublesome Juvenile.
More than 300 people are expected.
“We’re trying to create a sense of unity
in the hip hop community,” said
William Thompson, known on radio
station WCHB as Billy T. “We want to
wake up the young people and for
them to put forth a positive image in
their music. We’ve got to do something
to stop the violence. If we can reach a
few people, we’ll be taking a step in
the right direction.”
Muhammad said the summits try to
reach the hip-hop community by offer
ing speakers and a program they can
relate to.
“We have to speak their language,”
he said. “If we don’t, they will speak
out against their mentors. Detroit has
been the genesis for movements.
Detroit has to show a genuine and
general unification. The spirit of the
Million Man March has to live on.”
Dow history goes beyond
usual corporate evolution
By Eric Freedman
Journal Lansing Bureau
Aside from the Big 3 automakers, no
corporate name is more linked in the
public mind to Michigan than Dow.
Some Dow Chemical Co. products
are literally household words, from
Ziploc storage bags, Handiwrap and
Saran Wrap of the kitchen to mustard
gas of World War I and napalm of the
Vietnam War.
Now an official history - an autho
rized corporate biography - chronicles
Midland-based Dow as the company
celebrates its 100th anniversary this
year. In more than 600 pages, “Growth
Company: Dow Chemical’s First
Century” (Michigan State University
Press, $39.95) tracks a corporate evo
lution from the mind of inventor
Herbert Dow into a multinational eco
nomic force, a $20-billion-a-year com
mercial power.
“Herbert Dow founded his chemical
company in 1897 in the twilight of the
horse-and-buggy age,” author E.N.
(Ned) Brandt begins. “A century of
spectacular change was about to
ensue.” And so it was.
“The fantastic changes of the 20th
century, igniting this mad rush into
the future, were brought about by a
multitude of factors, one of them the
rise of the research-based industrial
firm.”
While the book is a comprehensive
history of a company, Brandt weaves in
stories about people, from the highest-
ranking executives to staff chemists to
ordinary workers. Brandt joined Dow’s
public relations staff in 1953 and was
present for more than four decades’
worth of the events he chronicles.
In one chapter, “The Flower
Children,” he provides inside looks at
Dow’s self-defense strategies when its
napalm production became the target
of anti-war protesters and when the
company responded to protests and
lawsuits by Vietnam vets over Agent
Orange.

ning reporter locked out from The
Detroit News.

Court of Appeals halts
three hospital closings
Journal photo by GEORGE WALDMAN
Cecil Moix, acting administrative director of Detroit Psychiatric Institute, talks with union
representatives. Moix acknowledged patients were being transferred despite a court
injunction. He said he believes the hospital is needed.
By Sunday Journal Staff
The Michigan Court of Appeals
Friday put on hold an injunction forc
ing the state to keep open three mental
hospitals.
All three hospitals are to close at
midnight Tuesday.
A candlelight vigil is planned from 4
p.m. to midnight Tuesday outside
Detroit Psychiatric Institute. It is part
of the Herman Kiefer complex, at the
Lodge Freeway and Taylor.
The other hospitals affected are the
Clinton Valley Center in Pontiac and
Pheasant Ridge Children’s Center in
Kalamazoo.
The stay blocks the injunction from
taking effect till the Court of Appeals
hears an appeal of the Sept. 19 decision
by Wayne County Circuit Court Judge
J.W. Callahan.
Callahan ruled that the planned hos
pital closings were part of a policy that
violated the Michigan constitution. He
then ordered the hospitals kept open.
Appeals Judges Hilda Gage and
Richard Griffin voted for the stay.
Judge Kathleen Jansen opposed it.
Despite the Callahan injunction, the
state last week continued to remove
patients from the three hospitals.
The Alliance for the Mentally 111 of
Michigan and some individuals had
sued to block the closings.
On Friday Linda Taylor-Lewis, presi
dent of UAW Local 6000, which repre
sents employees at the hospitals, said:
“We don’t think much of this order by
the court of appeals. The judges did
acknowledge the fact that the governor
really had not abided by the injunction.
This is just more of the system.”
Of Judge Callahan, Taylor-Lewis
said, “We were very happy that we had
a judge who was willing to say the gov
ernor is violating the constitution.”
Local 6000 is not a plaintiff in the
suit.

Fired workers’ hearings delayed again
By Alan Forsyth
Journal Staff Writer
The pace of National Labor
Relations Board proceedings often
has been called “glacial.”
One more example:
Last April NLRB Administrative
Law Judge Thomas Beddows started
hearings into complaints by NLRB
Regional Director William Schaub
that firings of 32 strikers by the
News and Detroit Newspapers were
unjustified and illegal.
Company attorneys immediately
objected to subpoenas for documents
dealing with the discharges and
incidents involving acts by line-
crossers.
According to union lawyer John
Adam, newspaper management
refused “to turn over various docu
ments which support reasons for the
discharges. They have opposed turn
ing over documents involving
replacement workers who engaged
in alleged misconduct but who were
not disciplined.”
Beddows agreed with newspaper
management, and the NLRB lawyers
appealed his ruling to the board in
Washington. After four days of hear
ings, Beddows adjourned the case
until July. After the board in
Washington reversed Beddows’ rul
ing, the judge announced he wouldn’t
hear the case.
So no July hearings.
Another judge, Richard A. Scully,
was appointed. The new date was
last Monday. By then the number of
fired strikers at issue had grown to
85, including seven Free Press
employees.
A company lawyer again raised
the issue of the documents. Scully
called for briefs on the issue and
adjourned everything until
November.
“There are literally thousands of
documents,” said Adam. “To delay
the hearings, they want to produce
them just a few at a time. They also
are claiming the documents about
the replacements aren’t relevant or
they are confidential.”
So the case may begin seven
months after the original hearing
date.
Another trial
U.S. Rep. David Bonior and five
others arrested with him in the
News building July 11 will probably
be tried on a trespass charge in the
next 30 to 45 days. All have pleaded
not guilty.
The six went to the News to ask
management to rehire all locked-out
workers and to agree to contracts and
legal conduct. After a discussion with
editorial page editor Thomas Bray,
they refused to leave the building.
On Tuesday Bonior said, “My deci
sion to participate with community,
religious and labor leaders on behalf
of the locked-out newspaper workers
was made out of a moral obligation
to their cause. Hundreds of families
have suffered at the hands of The
Detroit News and the Detroit Free
Press.”
Bonior’s colleagues are Gloria
Cobbin, secretary-treasury of the
Metro Detroit AFL-CIO; Bob King,
executive director of UAW Region
1A; Brad Markell, instructor at the
Wayne State University School of
Labor Studies; the Rev. John
Nowlan of St. Hilary’s Catholic
Church, Redford, and Vanessa
Sylvester, organizing director for
Local 951 of the United Food and
Commercial Workers union.
Tom Curley to speak
“Who Will Win the Media Wars?”
is up for discussion Wednesday
when Tom Curley, publisher of USA
Today and brother of Gannett CEO
John Curley, speaks at Central
Michigan University in Mt.
Pleasant. It’s scheduled for 5 p.m.
Nonprofit reconsiders
The News has been trying to woo
nonprofit organizations with grants
and free advertising. But one, the
Human Rights Campaign, decided
the price was too high.
According to the Metro Times, the
gay and lesbian organization is
returning a $250 donation for its
annual dinner Oct. 25.
Activist Ron Woods had threat
ened a mass picket outside.
A Detroiter, Paul Gainor, blasted
the News’ sponsorship in the Sept.
17 issue of the lesbian and gay
newspaper OutPost. He was
responding to a story that appeared
on Sept. 3 which listed the sponsors
and acknowledged that “some com
munity members may object to the
Detroit News’ sponsorship in the
wake of the labor dispute.”
Gainor wrote: “Is HRC so desper
ate for acceptance, or the money,
that they’ll associate with anyone, of
even the lowest reputation in our
community, to get it?”
Gainor, a writer, helped form the
Newspaper Guild at the Detroit
News in the ’70s.
McCord going to MSU
Richard McCord, author of “The
Chain Gang,” will speak at 6:30 p.m.
Oct. 6, at Michigan State University
(Wilson Hall, room C102n) as guest
of the Newspaper Guild of Lansing.
“The Chain Gang” details the busi
ness practices of Gannett Co., owner
of the Detroit news.
UFCW action
UFCW Local 951 says filmmaker
Michael Moore is inviting participa
tion in an action in Ann Arbor at 4
p.m. Wednesday. Participants will
meet at the Ann Arbor Theater, 210
S. Fifth Ave., between Liberty and
Washington. Cars will depart from
Detroit at 3 p.m. from the Teamsters
complex on Trumbull.
Alan Forsyth is a locked-out

Many
happy returns
I t was Happy Birthday 400 times
over last Sunday when several
hundred people gathered at his
toric UAW Local 600 in Dearborn
to celebrate the 80th birthdays of five
local peace, labor and civil rights
activists. The honorees and head table
guests are, from left, Lee Cain, Stella
and Carl Reinstein, Ruth Simrel-
Smith, wife of honoree Lasker Smith,
Perry Schwartz, husband of honoree
Ethel Schwartz and keynote speaker
Dave Moore, a retired UAW official.
The honorees lived and struggled
through the Great Depression, two
World Wars and the great organizing
drives of the union. They continue to
set a pace that people half their age
have trouble maintaining. Audience
members, including the guests at Ethel
Schwartz’ table, joined the honorees in
a spirited version of “We Shall
Overcome.”
Post-Tribune yanks contract from union in Gary
By Robin Fornoff
Journal Staff Writer
Knight-Ridder’s declaration of open
war on unions echoed across Indiana
last Wednesday when the staff of the
Gary Post-Tribune was told its con
tract was canceled.
In a one-sentence memo handed to
Gary Newspaper Guild President
Joseph Conn, Post-Tribune Publisher
Scott Bosley said the contract would
cease to exist “at 11:59 p.m. Sep
tember 25, 1997.”
The announcement is the second
stunning blow dealt to the newspaper
staff by Knight-Ridder, which
announced last summer that it
planned to sell the Post-Tribune.
The announcement will likely trig
ger unfair labor practice charges
because it defies an agreement to
extend the contract until the next
bargaining session, which is still
scheduled to take place Tuesday.
Conn, who led an employee effort to
buy the paper earlier this month,
said he can only assume from this
most recent announcement that
another bidder was awarded the
80,000-circulation daily.
Knight-Ridder spokesman Polk
Laffoon IV declined to say whether
the employee bid was accepted or
rejected, noting, “I can’t tell you that
there’s anything else going on other
than anticipation of the sale.”
But Conn said, “It’s sort of implicit
with the letter; the employee deal fell
through.”
“This sort of thing is precisely what
we sought to avoid by trying to buy
the paper,” said Conn. “This disrup
tion, anxiety and fear are drawing our
attention from the thing that is most
important, which is doing our job in a
very competitive situation.”
The newspaper is locked in a fierce
circulation fight with the Times of
nearby Hammond and Valparaiso, Ind.
The contract cancellation apparent
ly affects only the 74-member editori
al staff represented by the Guild. The
company is still negotiating with
pressmen, and a CWA contract with
typographers remains intact.
Conn said Knight-Ridder’s
announcement was a total surprise.
He said Bosley, a former Free Press
managing editor, had agreed in nego
tiations on Sept. 18 to extend the con
tract at least until the next bargain
ing session Tuesday. Editorial
employees - editors, writers and pho
tographers - haven’t had a raise since
November 1993.
Conn said he still hasn’t received
any notification of who was awarded
the paper in the auction conducted
earlier this month in New York. Post-
Tribune editorial employees have
worked 55 years without disruption
under a Guild-negotiated contract.

BY THE
NUMBERS
The newspaper unions’ circulation boycott against
The Detroit News and Detroit Free Press continues.
And a comparison of audited average circulation
figures from the Audit Bureau of Circulations for the
12 months ending March 31, 1995, and the same
period ending March 31, 1997, shows the boycott’s
effects remain deep and widespread.
Here are figures from 200 metro ZIP codes.

Dailies keeping quiet about circulation woes
“This looks like a cover-up by company
executives who do not want advertisers to know
how bad circulation has remained since this
labor struggle began two years ago. The com
munity - not just members of unions - contin
ues to stay away from these papers in droves.”
- Shawn Ellis, co-spokesman,
Metropolitan Council of Newspaper Unions
By Alan Forsyth
Journal Staff Writer
News and Free Press circulation
has been an issue throughout the
strike/lockout so it’s no surprise to
union leaders that the papers are
quiet on the latest audited figures.
While the numbers show slight
increases over figures for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, they
still are around one-third below pre
strike levels.
The audited figures will appear in
the statement of ownership, which
will be published in each paper on
Wednesday, said Kris McKean, De
troit Newspapers marketing research
director. Federal law requires publica
tion of the statement once a year.
Lou Mleczko, president of the
Newspaper Guild of Detroit, said, “We
are just heading into their peak
advertising season. That may be one
reason they are downplaying these
numbers.”
The figures cover the 12 months
ending last March 31 and were com
piled by the Audit Bureau of Circula
tions in Schaumburg, 111.
Nolan Finley, News business editor,
and Tom Walsh, Free Press business
editor, indicated they did not know
about the most recent audited data.
“I don’t recall those ABC numbers,”
Walsh told the Sunday Journal, but
he called back to say, “We ran num
bers for the period ending March 31.
Those were the Fas-Fax numbers. The
audited numbers actually came out
better than the Fas-Fax numbers. If
the audit is significantly different, we
might report them again.”
Finley said, “When the last round
came out in the spring, we printed
something. I’m pretty sure they were
the audited figures.”
Free Press Publisher Heath Meri
wether, News Publisher Mark Silver
man, Detroit Newspapers special pro
jects director Alan Lenhoff and DN
advertising director Richard McClen-
nen did not return calls from the
Journal Friday.
In May the Detroit dailies published
articles in their business sections on
the so-called Fas-Fax numbers. Those
statistics covered Oct. 1, 1996-March
31, 1997. The News said management
planned to appeal the Fas-Fax num
bers as too low but did not specify the
basis of the appeal.
The Audit Bureau has said that
before releasing the Fas-Fax figures, it
corrects only mathematical errors in
the statistics submitted by newspa
pers. The Fas-Fax figures thus are not
audited.
Home delivery in the metropolitan
area is an index that advertisers look
to as a key indicator.
For the daily News that index was
down about 40 percent from the
March 31, 1995, figures; for the daily
Free Press, 39 percent, and for the
combined Sunday paper, 37 percent.
Shawn Ellis, co-spokesman for the
Metropolitan Council of Newspaper
Unions, said, “This looks like a cover-
up by company executives who do not
want advertisers to know how bad
circulation has remained since this
labor struggle began two years ago.
The community - not just members of
unions - continues to stay away from
these papers in droves.”
Mleczko said, “I think once again
they know they are in trouble. What
the figures really show is their circu
lation is way down from where they
know it should be or where they have
been telling the public it is headed. I
think these figures reflect the com
munity anger at what these papers
have done to their unions.”
Detroit City Council President
Maryann Mahaffey agreed. “The fig
ures say that people continue to sup
port the locked-out workers,” she
said.
“By hiding the circulation figures
they think they can con people into
thinking they are recouping their loss
through the strike.”
The 1997 figures show that average
daily and Sunday circulation is down
more than 40 percent from the 1995
statistics in many communities,
including Warren, Eastpointe,
Lincoln Park, Roseville, Belleville,
Flat Rock, Garden City, Gibraltar,
Rockwood, Whitmore Lake, Ypsilanti
and Clarkston.

Without fair contracts,
papers won’t rebound
T he latest audited circula
tion figures show that the
Detroit newspapers have
regained only a slight frac
tion of the readers they had lost
during the newspaper strike. This
prompts us to ask anew: Why not
settle this tragic dispute and give
workers a fair contract?
In the 12 months ended last
March 31, average daily circulation
for the Detroit News was 32 percent
below the prestrike figure. The daily
Detroit Free Press also was reduced
32 percent from the prestrike fig
ure. And the Sunday paper was still
down 28.5 percent.
Is it any mystery that the Free
Press and the News did not bother
to report these figures, which come
out only once a year?
Gathered by independent
research, ABC numbers are relied
on as gospel by advertisers and oth
ers who need fair and accurate mea
sures of readership.
What do the numbers tell us?
Immediately after the company pro
voked the strike on July 13, 1995,
about one reader in every three
stopped buying the News and/or
Free Press. This immediate fall-off
was followed by a slow drain.
A trickle of readers has
returned, but probably not due to
strike-related issues. Circulation
rises when the economy booms, as it
is now. But the reverse is also true.
When the economy sags, the
already woeful declines in circula
tion for the News and Free Press
will get a lot worse.
In short, the ABC figures bear
out what we’ve said all along. The
strike-lockout has been a disaster
for the companies. One might argue
that the unions made tactical mis
takes during the dispute, but clear
ly the companies made one major
strategic blunder. In provoking a
strike to bust their unions, the
newspapers stupidly, carelessly,
incredibly thought they could get
away with it. The ABC numbers
show just how wrong they were.
Now the only question is, or
ought to be, how to salvage some
thing good out of this wreckage.
A good start would be to bring
back all the locked-out workers
immediately. Absent a federal court
injunction forcing the companies to
take us back, the papers have been
calling back workers one or two at a
time. The National Labor Relations
Board may order a wholesale rehir
ing in a few months’ time. Regard
less of that possibility, the company
ought to be taking us back at once
and without reservations.
Next management ought to
realize that it’s time to settle out
standing contract issues. Clearly
the prestrike disputes over how
many jobs to trim have become all
but irrelevant in the wake of the
strike. So much has been lost by
both sides that the newspaper
strike now seems like a war in
which no one can remember what
started it.
As we near the year 2000, the
News, Free Press and DN face chal
lenges, among them a growing
threat from suburban newspapers.
Meeting these challenges requires a
loyal, savvy workforce. The newspa
per companies used to have that in
Detroit. Now their offices are
staffed with scabs — poorly trained
out-of-towners who don’t know the
difference between Woodward and
Windsor and whose ethics and stan
dards are sub-professional at best.
Why don’t the companies settle?
One can only conclude that leaders
at Gannett and Knight-Ridder are
gripped by a fanatic’s passion for
their misshapen ideology. A fanatic
is one who pursues his course after
the initial aim has been rendered
meaningless. The newspaper execu
tives, blindly following a union-
busting course long after its folly
has been made plain to all, fit that
description.
So, as the ABC numbers demon
strate, it’s time to settle. Bring back
all the workers, give us a fair con
tract. Only then can we get to work
reversing a circulation slide that
has all but destroyed two once-great
newspapers.

Clinton’s memory lapse
T he vice president’s memory
appears to be in good working
order, but President Bill
Clinton claims he can’t
remember whether he made fundrais
ing calls from his office in the White
House during last year’s presidential
campaign - calls that would be con
sidered illegal since the White House
is federal property. Perhaps the ille
gality of the matter has something to
do with the memory lapse, perhaps
not, but it doesn’t look good and
sounds even worse.
Whether or not the hearings are
truly a partisan exercise promoted by
Republicans in an effort to hamstring
the president, or whether there is
more to the story, what appears to be
convenient amnesia is not helpful to
President Clinton’s credibility.
Apparently Vice President A1 Gore’s
assignment in this matter has been to
absorb some of the heat for the Big
Guy by admitting to his own wrongdo
ing (he remembers making calls)
while Clinton is allowed to lift his
hands in the air and claim he has no
clue about what’s creating so much
fuss. In addition, Clinton’s high
approval ratings in the polls combined
with the flatliner level of voter inter
est in these hearings may ultimately
grant him even more Teflon immunity.
“I believe that what I did and
what the vice president did was legal,”
Clinton said at a recent press confer
ence. “I’m absolutely positive that we
intended to be firmly within the letter
of the law when we were out there
campaigning and raising funds.”
So the commander-in-chief of the
most powerful nation on Earth, a
Rhodes Scholar widely acknowledged
to be one of the brightest presidents
this country has ever had, can’t
remember whether he raised money
on his own behalf. Interesting. It is
also interesting to note the president’s
choice of words in his defense. For
some strange reason, the president
didn’t say he was “absolutely positive”
that he was within the letter of the
law. Nope. He said he was positive
“that we intended to be firmly within
the letter of the law.” Hmmmm. One
has to wonder how that might sound if
a bank robber said he was absolutely
positive that he intended not to rob
the bank. Oh, sure, he robbed the
bank, but he didn’t intend to rob it.
Meanwhile, Sen. Fred Thompson,
R-Tenn., chairman of the Senate Gov
ernmental Affairs Committee, is
boasting that his panel’s investigation
will demonstrate the need for an inde
pendent counsel to dig to the bottom
of this whole affair because he is cer
tain that illegal fundraising was going
on and he seems certain he can prove
it.
Ultimately, this is about consider
ably more than who made a cash-beg
ging call to whom from where. This is
about how much money it takes to
become President of the United States
of America. A large part of that money
supposedly goes toward television
advertising, so perhaps a first step
toward sanity might be to permit each
candidate a certain specified amount
of free advertising, or maybe even
make it all free. Anything to cut down
on the absurd costs, which are largely
responsible for a number of oddly
matched bedfellows in Washington,
especially around campaign time.
Interestingly enough, no one ever
seems to remember the names of those
bedfellows the following morning.

Stop fast track, Big Three exploitation in Mexico
By Brad Markell
Special to the Journal
Now that President Bill Clinton
wants Congress to renew his fast
track authority, the political fight over
rules for the global economy is heating
up again.
Fast track allows the president to
negotiate trade accords that can’t be
modified by Congress, only voted up or
down. The president used fast track to
shove NAFTA through in 1993, and
now he wants to use it to expand
NAFTA.
So the fast track debate sounds a lot
like the NAFTA debate, with one
important difference: We don’t need to
speculate about what it will bring; we
have almost four years of evidence. If
you are an autoworker, the news is not
good.
The U.S. trade deficit with Mexico in
the auto industry has exploded since
NAFTA went into effect (up 400 per
cent to $14.65 billion. An additional
$14 billion in U.S. auto production
would generate at least 200,000 high-
paying jobs, jobs that would make a
big difference in places such as Flint,
Saginaw and Detroit. The Big Three
employ more people in Juarez than in
Detroit. Why?
It’s not market access, as some
would have us believe. Vehicles leav
ing Mexico for the United States out
number those going the other way by
8-to-l. The agenda is cost-cutting.
The Big Three are in the squalid
maquila zones to reap the benefits of
ultra-low wages* Employees typically
make no more than $ 1 per hour in the
maquilas, the Spanish name for the
3,800 export-oriented manufacturing
plants that crowd the border. Yet they
work in plants as modern and efficient
as many Big Three plants in the
United States.
The Big Three have been expanding
in Mexico since well before NAFTA.
The trade agreement could have

included provisions to improve labor
conditions, but the big corporations
prevented any such language and won
the right to continue the exploitation.
As a General Motors employee and
stockholder, I’m shocked and shamed
by its employment practices in
Mexico, but Chrysler and Ford aren’t
much different. Imagine what it’s like
to sit with a fellow GM employee in
her house, a self-made shack, as she
explains what life is like when you
make $1 per hour. It’s lousy, since the
cost of food and other basic necessities
is about the same as in the United
States.
Of course, as Mexican autoworkers
suffer immediate harm, U.S. auto
workers find themselves in harm’s
way. When your employer can hire
your neighbor in the global economy
for $1 an hour, sooner or later some
thing will give.
Put dignity on the ballot
Thanks for the story by Antoinette
Martin about the gallant, gracious
Janet Good. She fought the good fight
for aid to the dying.
I belong to Merian’s Friends, a citi
zens’ group working to put the Dignity
in Dying Act on the statewide ballot in
1998. Merian Frederick of Ann Arbor
suffered from Lou Gehrig’s disease
and died with a physician’s help. That
assistance came late and was not
within the law.
Our ballot proposal will correct this
and require stringent safeguards. The
request for final relief must begin
with the patient. A psychiatrist must
certify the patient is a competent
adult. Attending physicians and a spe
cialist in the particular illness must
letters
certify the patient is terminally ill
with six months to live. The patient
must be advised of all other forms of
comfort care. The patient must be
given at least one week to reconsider.
And participation by a physician is
voluntary.
If you agree this reform is necessary
- and 60 percent of Michigan voters do
- your help is needed. We need
350,000 signatures on petitions by
Dec. 31. For petitions or information,
call 888-217-0700.

Employers prefer lower-priced labor,
just as I favor the lower-priced car
wash. But we all understand why
extremely low wages in one location
can drag down wages in others.
Big Three workers in Mexico make
around $40 per hour less than their
American counterparts, counting
wages, benefits and such legally man
dated costs as Social Security. If you
multiply that over 40-hour work
weeks for a year, moving 1,000 jobs to
Mexico saves $80 million a year.
GM has about 70,000 employees in
Mexico, Ford about 22,000, and
Chrysler about 8,000.
While it’s true that the companies
continue to invest in upgrading their
U.S. facilities, knowing that your
employer can save $80,000 a year by
moving your job just across the border
makes U.S. autoworkers justifiably
uneasy about trade agreements that
do nothing to address that concern.
The corporate boosters of NAFTA
who insisted that wages in Mexico
would rise if the pact was enacted
were wrong. The economic situation in
Mexico is desperate, and many are
tempted to try work in the maquilas,
but few find the jobs worth keeping.
Voluntary turnover consistently
exceeds 50 percent a year.
Many Big Three executives have
visited the maquila zones, including
GM Chairman Jack Smith. They
know what is going on and they and
the corporate boards must accept per
sonal responsibility for decisions that
sustain this immoral corporate behav
ior.
Mexican autoworkers are willing to
fight for better conditions — each
company has suffered serious wildcat
strikes in the past few years — but
the companies always fight back. The
most recent was in June in Reynosa,
where GM employees staged a wildcat
strike to protest profit-sharing checks
of only $30. GM lost a few shifts of pro
duction, coaxed workers back in,
added $45 to profit sharing and fired
the alleged leaders.
Ironically, a Wall Street Journal
story just one week later about GM’s
Mexico operations didn’t mention the
strike. In a bizarre twist, the article
describes GM’s angst over criticism
for its practices in Mexico, even as it
pursues a modest housing program for
some employees. The criticism comes
because the genuine needs of Big
Three workers in Mexico are so much
more than what is offered.
The Big Three should take unilater
al action to pay higher wages in
Mexico. The old excuses about produc
tivity differences and respecting
developing nation wage structures
just don’t wash anymore, if they ever
did.
Substantial raises for their Mexican
employees would not be an extrava
gance or a burden for the Big Three.
Will they do the right thing voluntari
ly? Not likely. The Big Three choose to
play global skinflint even as they
enjoy unprecedented success.
What will it take to reduce the mis
erable exploitation of Big Three work
ers in Mexico? The same thing it has
always taken: The workers must orga
nize for political power and genuine
trade unions. Only the collective
power of workers acting in solidarity
can stop this insanity.
Building that power will require
that U.S. and Canadian unions form
relationships with our brothers and
sisters in Mexico. We need a militant
North American union movement that
can work effectively in all three
nations.
It is in our self-interest to fight to
raise employment standards in the
global auto industry. We must push
for an auto industry where wages are
determined by productivity and the
actual cost of a decent living. NAFTA
is taking us the other direction.
In the end, that’s why fast track
should be defeated. Earlier this
month, workers at an Echlin Corp.
plant in Mexico participated in a
union election. They were detained in
the plant overnight by almost 200
armed thugs and then forced to vote
by voice in front of the thugs and plant
management.
These workers have no remedy
under NAFTA for what happened.
Fast track will bring only more of the
same. By defeating fast track we can
force these abuses into the public
spotlight and begin the work of fash
ioning rules for the global economy
that will advance the interests of
working people. Remember, “Si se
puede - Yes, we can!”

Bianco says Founders Society
can fatten DIA coffers
The executive vice-president of the
Detroit Institute of Arts Founders
Society recently said that the lack of
a strong endowment fund led to the
museum’s financial woes.
Joseph Bianco Jr. said endowments
have quadrupled, going from $20 mil
lion to $80 million during his 14
years in office. He said he needs to
raise the fund to $200-$300 million
within the next decade.
“That’s why we need to be in the
private sector,” Bianco said. “If you
were going to leave money to an art
museum, would you leave it to an
institution that is under city control?

No, you’d figure that financing was
the city’s responsibility.
“I’m saying we can do better on our
own. Under our proposal, we’d tell the

it’s the DIA alone, sink or swim.”
The DIA needs to raise $8 million
to make up for a shortfall in state
funding that will hit next July.
Bianco’s comments come amid a
hotly debated plan to turn control of

Thus spake the Speaker
and the councilman
W hen a reporter recently asked state House Speaker Curtis
Hertel, D-Detroit, about a welfare-related article in one of the
scab papers, Hertel replied, “Of course I didn’t see that story
because I’m not reading either paper.” Same with retiring
Detroit City Councilman Mel Ravitz, who, in a Metro Times interview, said he
hadn’t read either the scab
News or Freep for the duration
of the strike. Will the dailies be BETWEEN
glad to see the outspoken Ravitz
go? “The News would be glad to
see everybody go, and have
General Motors run the city,” the
councilman quipped.
Scab cheat sheet needed
Overheard at a Red Wings exhibi
tion game: A News scab photog asked
a Freep scab photog: “Which one’s
Scotty Bowman?”
Freep’s sad slide
In the Sept. 29 issue of Time,
there’s a big story on how The New
York Times is “the last great newspa
per.” A sidebar notes that Time used
to routinely make a list of the
nation’s 10 best newspapers but
that’s “a rather dispiriting task these
days.” So this time they’ve gone
another route and picked the most
resourceful paper, the best comeback,
most improved, etc. The last category
has a picture of a crumpled-up
Miami Herald and reads “BIGGEST
FALLOFF - Two Knight-Ridder
papers, the Miami Herald, which
used to appear regularly on 10-best
lists, seems a shell of its former self;
and at the Detroit Free Press, quali
ty has plummeted since a joint oper
ating agreement with the afternoon
News.” And since the best journalists
left on July 13, 1995.
Panic in Detroit
Did you miss David Bowie’s smash
show at the State Theatre last week?
Don’t worry, you can catch a live
cybercast from the Orpheum in
Boston on Wednesday, starting at
8:30 p.m. Check it out at www.rock-
tropolis.com.
But he knows his name
Staff scab Tom Long of The Detroit
News actually bragged in an on-line
News story last week that he has no
idea where the city of Detroit begins
and ends. “Is Clinton Township in
Detroit?” he wailed, in print. “Is Ann
Arbor Detroit? ... I mean, I know I’m
in Detroit when I’m sitting at my
desk at work, because of the building
I work in is in the city of Detroit and
that must be Detroit.” Yes, he really
wrote it that way.
Yak lack?
If you can wear a 10-pound cos
tume, entertain kids and read, the
Freep wants you. Of course you have

to abandon your principles and
swear allegiance to corporate greed,
but, hey, Tony Ridder will be ever so

Radio turntable
Congrats to Dave Kerr over at
WKQI for his recent promotion to
station manager. Kerr has been
Q95.5’s general sales manager since
1996. As far as we know, his vacated
GSM slot is still open. Down the dial
at WRIF 101.1, program director
Doug Podell adds operations manag
er to his list of duties which also
include the 10 a.m.- 3 p.m. air shift.
Telemarketer tips
Since you aren’t reading the scab
papers, we’ll share this one with you,
too. In a story the News ran on tele
marketers - which said they “should
be treated as pests and swatted
away” - it was pointed out that it’s a
violation of FTC regulations to call a
customer who has asked the compa
ny NOT (their emphasis) to call
again, and to make a false statement
of any kind to induce payment.
Wonder if that would include these
comments by the dailies’ telemar
keters trying to coax back sub
scribers who canceled back in July
1995: “Oh, yes, ma’am, the strike’s
over, and 95 percent of the union
members are back.” And ‘Yes, some
union members haven’t been called
back but we need subscribers so we
can afford to hire back the rest.” The
News story suggests you write the
FTC (Sixth & Pennsylvania Ave. NW,
Washington, D.C. 20580). We suggest
you call the Michigan attorney gen
eral’s office, 517-373-4798.
USA Today, no way!
Detroit unionists were more than a
little upset at the sight of free USA
Todays all over the Doubletree in
Pittsburgh, where the AFL-CIO was
having its convention, being that the
paper is on the union boycott list.

Red Wings add
to mix of premieres
N ote to Roseanne Barr-Arnold-Whatever Your Last Name Is Now:
Your series ended last season; we really enjoyed it while it was
on. Now we’d like a little break from you so we can be excited to
see you again. But you won’t go away! Last week you bounced
onto NBC’s “3rd Rock from the Sun” as Dick’s otherworldly wife (fine cast
ing), and this Wednesday you bum-rush the fifth-season premiere of “The
Nannj^” (8 p.m., CBS/Channel 62) as Fran’s decorator cousin. Remember,
absence makes the heart grow fonder. PLEASE!
Elsewhere, a great week for televised sports - headed by our Red Wings
beginning their quest for a second Stanley Cup and baseball getting interest
ing with the league playoffs - arrives just as the fall preview season is wind
ing down. This week, “Soul Man,” “NYPD Blue,” “Murphy Brown” (launching its
10th season with a risky breast-cancer story line), “Boy Meets World” and the
aforementioned “Nanny” do what returning series do. They return. And look for
Detroit native and former “Roc” star Ella Joyce to return to TV in a guest role
this week on “Seinfeld,” Thursday at 9 p.m. on NBC (Channel 4 in Detroit).
■ NFL Football:
Green Bay
Packers at
Detroit Lions, 1
today, Fox
(Channel 2 in
Detroit) -
Everybody who
honestly believed the Lions wouldn’t
lose to the Saints in New Orleans
last week, raise your hands! Just as I
thought. Didn’t want to drop the
Journal, right? And now, with Packer
fans streaming across Lake Michigan
like invading Huns and selling out
the Silverdome, a Lions regular-sea-
son home game will be on local TV
for the first time this year. Don’t
know whether to thank those
Cheeseheads or curse them.
■ “The Wonderful World of
Disney,” 7 tonight, ABC (Channel 7
in Detroit) - Walt Disney program
ming has been one of TV’s most suc
cessful staples since the early 1950s,
really one continuous series that
aired variously on NBC, ABC and
CBS and appeared under numerous
titles through 1990. With the show
returning to television after a seven-
year absence, whaddaya think, that
they’re going to Fox? And ABC is
enhancing the value of its network
property with the grandest of reopen
ing specials: the network premiere of
the 1995 movie blockbuster “Toy
Story,” the computer-generated come
dy that set new standards for film
animation.
■ “Elmore Leonard’s Gold Coast,”
8 tonight (repeated at 8 p.m.
Thursday), Showtime - Just like
Roseanne (see above), the less you
begin to appreciate David Caruso’s
acting, the more he seems to start
Jim
McFarlin
Highlights
popping up
everywhere.
Now, in addition
to his new series
“Michael Hayes”
and “NYPD
Blue” reruns on
Channel 62 (11
p.m. Saturdays), he’s got the lead
credit on this wry, made-for-cable
crime comedy based on the novel by
the pride of Woodward Avenue’s gold
coast, Dutch Leonard. Luckily, howev
er, its co-star Marg Helgenberger
truly carries the action as a mob
widow whose $15 million inheritance
depends on her staying true to a no
sex clause in the will.
■ “Jenny,” 8:30 tonight, NBC -
Looking for a companion piece to fol
low “Men Behaving Badly,” NBC
handed a new sitcom to MTV lollipop
Jenny McCarthy and gave her
George Hamilton in the recurring
role of her dead B-movie-star daddy.
The premiere sets the premise for
this buddy comedy, as small-town
ingenue Jenny McMillan and her pal
Maggie (Heather Paige Kent) move
from upstate New York to Hollywood
in search of fame and intelligence.
■ “Get to the Heart: The Barbara
Mandrell Story,” 9 tonight, CBS
(Channel 62 in Detroit) - Boy, has
Marcia Brady ever grown up. Not
only is Maureen McCormick, the
teen-icon star of the original “Brady
Bunch,” playing a TV mom now (on
the new ABC sitcom “Teen Angel”),
but she recorded her own country
album three years ago. So it seems an
oddly appropriate fit that she should
take on the role of country-music
queen Barbara Mandrell in this new
TV-biopic, tracing the singer’s rise to
stardom and the 1984 car crash that
nearly ended it all. It’s as sad and
hokey as a country ballad at times,
but it includes cameos from Dolly
Parton and Kenny Rogers as well as
Mandrell, who provides all the vocals
in the film and plays herself in two
important scenes.

lenny McCarthy, left, and Heather Paige
Kent star in “Jenny,” premiering at 8:30
tonight on NBC.
p.m. Tuesday, ESPN - The teams
and players you know: It’ll be
hard to recognize the telecasts
without a program, since every
network that has a finger in
baseball’s broadcast pie (includ
ing NBC, which only shows up
at this time each year) gets
appeased with a handful of
games to call its own. Generally
speaking, for this first round
there’ll be early games at 1 p.m.
and/or 4 p.m. on ESPN, and night
games, usually at 8 p.m., alternat
ing between Fox (Channel 2 in
Detroit) and NBC (Channel 4).
■ “The Big Show with Keith
Olbermann,” 8 p.m. Wednesday
(repeated at 11 p.m. weeknights),
MSNBC - Following the lead of his
fellow ESPN talking head Craig
Kilbom, who jumped from the net
work’s wildly successful “Sports-
Center” desk to seek his career future
elsewhere on cable, Olbermann turns
his wit and skepticism to current
events with this new hour-long news
discussion series. Ironic that
MSNBC should launch the former
sport co-anchor the same night
another ex-sportscaster-turned-news-
man, Bryant Gumbel, makes his
debut for CBS.
■ “Public Eye” with Bryant Gumbel,
9 p.m. Wednesday, CBS - TV’s coolest
dapper newstalker - and arguably,
the medium’s best interviewer -
begins paying dividends on the
multimillion-dollar deal that wooed
him to CBS with the premiere of his
live hour-long weekly news magazine.
Stories will shift and develop as close
to air time as possible, but Gumbel
will be the studio touchstone for a
revolving team of regular correspon
dents including CBS veteran Bernard
Goldberg and new faces Maggie
Cooper and Peter Van Sant.
■ NHL: Detroit Red Wings at
Calgary Flames, 9 p.m. Wednesday,
Channel 50 - Spruce up those car
flags! Our men of the Winged Wheel
roll into their first season as defend
ing Stanley Cup champions since
1956, opening the campaign on the
road against the often-flickering
Flames of Calgary. Among the new
wrinkles you’ll notice is a significant
line change in the broadcast booth,
where Toronto native Ken Daniels
skates over from “Hockey Night in
Canada” to become the Wings’ new
play-by-play announcer alongside
redoubtable color commentator
Mickey Redmond.

One voice
Camellia Johnson alone can ’
By John Guinn
Journal Music Critic
S everal key elements cause Michigan
Opera Theatre’s production of Verdi’s
“Aida” to fall far short of success.
There is, for instance, Steven
Mercurio’s conducting. He turns the pre
lude into a series of disjointed sections, apparent
ly not trusting the MOT Orchestra ****************
to make smooth transitions. His nnttrn
tempos are so rushed that at times UptJIcl
some of the singers can barely get
out their words; at other times they’re forced to
play catch-up as he accelerates the proceedings.
There is Roman Terleckyj’s stage direction,
which is at its worst during crowd scenes. For
instance, when Radames is commissioned to lead
the army, Terleckyj has the priests line up (and
sing) in single file, effectively watering down one
of the opera’s most powerful choral moments.
In the triumphal scene, lines of people move in
and out and up and down and back and forth
across the stage with no apparent purpose except
to distract your attention from what is going on
musically. At one point the moving lines obscure
the beginning of a dance.
Nor are Terleckyj’s sins limited to mob
sequences. During the Nile scene, Aida is already
onstage when her signature entrance music rises
from the strings. Later in the scene her father,
Amonasro, comes onstage from the same Temple
mmmmm °f Isis that his captors, Amneris
iiflufilMi an d the priests, go into at the
rCVICW beginning of the scene. Must be a
* " big temple!
There are the two tenors who share the role of
Radames. At the opening performance Fabio
Armiliato was a parody of what a crummy Italian
tenor should sound like, pressing his high notes
so heavily they tended to sharpen, scooping up
notes at the beginning of phrases and mistaking
strained, brute force for powerful singing. At the
second performance, Ian DeNolfo, who brayed his
way through the role of Erik in last season’s
“Flying Dutchman,” repeated that sad approach
See OPERA, Page 27
Prison
launched
writer’s
career
By Gary Graff
Journal Features Editor
R obert Davis’ novel
writing career didn’t
stem from literary
studies or long-held
ambitions.
“I started writing when I
got thrown in the hole,” he
explains.
That would be the solitary
confinement section of a fed
eral penitentiary in Lompoc,
Calif., one of two prisons in
which the Farmington Hills
native served a 2V2-year con
viction for mail fraud. It was
the bottom of a long down-
about books
ward spiral during which
Davis, addicted to Quaaludes
and alcohol and living the
high life, lost his family, lost
his medical license and a suc
cessful practice.
“I absolutely believed in my
innocence,” says Davis, 43. “I
was in utter shock when I
lost.
“I was under the miscon
ception that I was a law-abid
ing guy. I really lost perspec-,
tive.”
But that loss turned into
his gain during his incarcera
tion. The writing that began
in the hole has turned into a
new career. The mystery-
thriller “The Plutonium
Murders,” one of four books
he worked on in prison, has
just been published by
Horizon Press in Troy. A sec
ond, “Doomsday Kiss,” will be
out before the end of the year,
with another, “A Time to Die,”
slated for mid-1998.
Davis, who returned to the
metro Detroit area after his
release in June 1996, is also
talking with movie executives
about turning his books and
their hero, Dr. Alex Seacourt,
into a film franchise.

Rolling Stones dish out the oldies in tour opener
By Gary Graff
Journal Music Writer
CHICAGO - Massive, inflatable
nude women. Pornographic cartoons.
Enough pyrotechnics to level a couple
of city blocks.
The Rolling Stones must be on the
road again.
And they are. The venerable British
rock band, well into its fourth decade
of rock ’n’ rolling, kicked off its
“Bridges to Babylon” tour at Soldier
Field here last Tuesday night, sating
54,000 fans with a 24-song, 2V2-hour
concert that proved a bunch of 50-
somethings - at least these 50-some
things - can still rip this, or any, joint
they choose to play.
Blending stadium spectacle with
bar band looseness - and some gen
uine opening-night sloppiness in the
form of missed cues and rough song
endings - the Stones gave their fans
plenty of satisfaction with a spirited
and energetic performance that bodes
well for the rest of the tour, including
concert review
a Dec. 2 stop at the Pontiac Silver-
dome.
Playing just three songs from the
“Bridges to Babylon” album, which
hits stores Tuesday, the Stones con
centrated on familiar favorites, which
was just fine with the generationally
mixed crowd of Stones fans, some of
whom journeyed from as far away as
Japan and Europe to catch Tuesdays
opener.
If it was hits they wanted, the
Stones dished ’em out - from an
impressive opening salvo of “(I Can’t
Get No) Satisfaction,” “It’s Only Rock
’n’ Roll (But I Like It),” “Bitch” and
“Let’s Spend the Night Together” to
such rarely performed gems as “Ruby
Tuesday’ and “19th Nervous
Breakdown” to such seminal hits as
“Miss You,” “Sympathy for the Devil,”
“Tumblin’ Dice,” “Jumpin’ Jack Flash,”
‘You Can’t Always Get What You
Want” and a show-closing rendition of
“Brown Sugar.”
Flanked by Babylonian images -
including two giant, inflatable nude
women — and a large, oval video
screen, the Stones were remarkably
genial; Jagger and guitarist Keith
Richards, the Stones’ sometimes com
bative leaders, even threw their arms
over each other’s shoulders as they
sang the chorus of “19th Nervous
Breakdown.” Jagger warned the
crowd that “I don’t know if we
remember the ending” before the
group began “Under My Thumb.”
A dancing dervish throughout the
show, Jagger changed outfits at least
a dozen times, including seven differ
ent coats to ward off the evening’s
chill, and worked the crowd from long
ramps that took him into the stadi
um’s grandstands.
The highlight of the evening was a
three-song set the Stones performed
on a stage set up in the middle of the
stadium, a la U2’s recent tours. After
walking on a long ramp out to the
stage - slapping hands with fans all
the way - the Stones played animated
versions of Chuck Berrys “Little
Queenie,” “Let It Bleed” and “The Last
Time” as fans flocked around the
smaller stage. The songs were among
the group’s best musical performances
of the night and tangibly upped the
energy level for the rest of the show.
All of this kept Soldier Field rocking
right up until the final fireworks dis
play and affirmed the Stones’ mantle
as large-scale rock demigods. It may
be only rock ’n’ roll, but when it’s
done well, we still like it, yes we do.

Trot out to Turkeyville for comfort food
T he fall color changes are
just now starting in the
southern part of Michigan,
and anyone looking for a
good, fun place to eat on a day trip
to the west might want to try
Cornwell’s in Turkeyville. It’s one of
the goofiest places I’ve seen in years.
No, Turkeyville is not officially on
the map. It’s about six miles north of
Marshall and has a Marshall
address, which means it’s about two
hours west of Detroit on 1-94, and
just one exit north and half a mile
west of 1-69 on, you guessed it,
Turkeyville Road.
Oh, by the way, in case you do
miss it, it’s the place right across the
road from the Wishbone Glen Golf
club.
Obviously, turkey is what
Cornwell’s sells. But it’s a lot more
than a restaurant. It’s the
damnedest collection of Americana
and gobbler mania I have ever seen
under one roof.
On one side of the meandering
maze of buildings, there is a series of
boutiques - a kind of mini-mall for
turkey lovers - selling thick-crusted,
locally baked fruit pies and cake,
decorative wood carvings (lots of
turkeys, of course), pottery, gingham
pillows (with turkeys) and just about
any memorabilia relating to the
Thanksgiving bird you can imagine.
On the other side is a dinner the
ater. A dinner theater? You bet.
Last Saturday, I watched a bus
load of seniors from Indiana load up
on plates of hot turkey, mashed
potatoes and stuffing and watch a
small cast do “Singing in the Rain”
KATHY HORN / Special to the Journal
Schlock is part of the charm at Cornwell’s, a mini-mall for turkey lovers.
and $5, include a buttered turkey
sandwich, turkey salad sandwich, a
sloppy Tom (barbecue), turkey and
biscuit, turkey soup, turkey chili,
turkey stir-fry, turkey burgers, and a
turkey Reuben sandwich.
Now, I have always found that
turkey is bland. It’s naturally that
way and there’s not much you can do
to dress it up. When you get it at
most diners and roadside places, it’s
dry and stringy. Not at Cornwell’s.
It’s plump, moist and delightfully
right on.
The cooking at Cornwell’s is pure
and true to the days when food was
simple and uncomplicated, which is
different from bland. It was like that
because people expected it to be that
way. Take the Amish noodles, for
example. They’re very good, but
they’re the size of thick logs. Delicate
and light do not even cross the culi
nary radar of this era.
As a reflection of our past, the food
at Cornwell’s is cooked to perfection.
The bread stuffing with onions and
white gravy are genuinely enjoyable.
To eat at Cornwell’s is to be trans
ported back to another time.
Certainly, it was a time many will be
glad we left behind. Still, Cornwell’s
is a nice little snippet of nostalgia for
a family to enjoy on a bright, sunny,
colorful fall day when sweaters come
out of the closet and the rustle of
bright red and yellow leaves is under
foot.
Cornwell's is at 18935 75 ; /2 Mile

on a stage at the front of the dining
hall. They loved it.
Now, if musical accompaniment at
lunch isn’t quite your cup of turkey
soup, well, just slide a tray down the
cafeteria line in the main dining hall
and pick a table in the room decorat
ed with dark barn siding and Tiffany
lamps. The walls are dotted with dec
orative porcelain platters (turkeys
are the main theme, of course) and
cast iron skillets, giving it that
homey grandma feel.
Want dessert? There’s a fudge shop
around the corner next to the old-
fashioned soda fountain that is com
plete with sets of those cafe chairs
and round Formica tables that now
sell for a fortune in antique stores.
Turkey is the only meat on the
menu at Cornwell’s, although for
variety, I guess, they do serve turkey
hot dogs.
The food is all genuinely home
made and reflects the way grand
mother used to cook. It’s what a lot of
people call comfort food.
The most you can spend for any
dish is $6 for such plates as the
turkey dinner (turkey, dressing,
mashed potatoes, coleslaw, roll and
cranberry relish) or for the turkey
noodle dinner (homemade Amish noo
dles with slices of turkey).

G.E. Smith: Thursday night, live
By Audrey McKenna
Journal Staff Writer
etter known for his ponytail
and tortured facial expres
sions than his guitar play
ing, G.E. Smith left
“Saturday Night Live” after 10 years
of leading its band to do full time
what he could only do in his free
time: tour. He’ll be performing, along
with rhythm guitarist Taylor
Barton, at 8 p.m. Thursday at Fifth
Avenue in Royal Oak. He’ll perform
with bassist Paul Ossola and former
Wings’ drummer Steve Holley.
In his career, Smith has been a
member of the house band for Live
Aid and was the musical director for
Bob Dylan’s 30th anniversary con
cert at Madison Square Garden and
most recently for the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame Museum concert in
Cleveland.
Some tidbits about Smith:
■ He was married to Gilda Radner
(before she wed Gene Wilder).
■ The “G.E.” stands for George
Edward, not NBC’s owners General
Electric.
■ Smith toured with Bob Dylan for
four years, flying back each
Saturday to perform on “SNL.”
■ The G.E. Smith Band plans to
release a debut solo album later
this year.
Fifth Avenue is at 215 W. Fifth in
downtown Royal Oak. Admission is
$5. Call 248-542-9922.

If it’s fun you want, skip ‘Peacemaker’
“The Peacemaker”
By Matt Black
Journal Special Writer
As the first film out of the gate for
DreamWorks, “The Peacemaker”
will neither make nor break the
new Spielberg-Katzenberg-Geffen
studio. It’s an action thriller that
keeps things moving across a large
. canvas, starting with the theft of a
trainload of nuclear warheads by a
renegade Russian general turned
black marketer in arms.
Enter Nicole Kidman and George
Clooney as the U.S.’s newest odd
couple response team. She’s a com
puter savvy expert on nuclear
smuggling; he’s a quick-on-the-trig-
ger troubleshooter who makes up
the moves as he goes along. His
improvisatory skills are tested in
viscerally rousing ways, including
the tracking of the terrorist convoy
through the former Yugoslavia; the
disabling of the key truck on a
bridge, a death struggle there and a
race with time to dismantle the
nuke - which, by the way, is headed
for the UN in the backpack of a
Croatian terrorist courting sympa
thy because he’s grief-stricken over
the sniper killings of his wife and
child.
“The Peacemaker” is expensive
and breathless, but not much fun to
watch as Clooney and Kidman
never get the chance to play any
thing but human heat-seeking mis
siles, locked onto their target. Still,
if all you want in a thriller is effi
ciently staged thrills, they’re here.
Rated R.
“The Edge” §
Boy, it sure isn’t much fun to be
rich, white and male these days, at
least in the movies. First, we had
Michael Douglas as a multimillion
aire caught up in torment/fun in
“The Game.” Now we have billion
aire Anthony Hopkins fighting for
survival against nature and a mean
bear in “The Edge,” a film that is
actually two films in one but still
incomplete and unfulfilling.
Hopkins plays Charles Morse, a
DreamWorks Pictures
George Clooney provides the action but
little more in “The Peacemaker.”
cold and distant man of money who
trusts few and befriends even fewer.
Since he is convinced that all people
want from him is money, he spends
a vast majority of his time reading
books. He thus has attained an
intellectual wealth that would serve
him well either on “Jeopardy” or if
he happens to get stranded in the
wilderness. Somehow, he has been
able to catch as his wife the very
beautiful and young Mickey (Elle
MacPherson), a model who may or
may not be having an affair with
her photographer, Robert Greene
(Alec Baldwin). The three come
together for a photo shoot in Alaska.
The beginning of the film is pure
psychological fun as we wonder
what Morse wonders when he sees
his wife playfully flirting with
Greene. But then there’s an air
plane crash, and the battle to sur
vive begins as Morse, Greene and
an expendable cast member try to
find their way back to civilization.
The scenery is breathtaking and
the action sequences with the
Kodiak bear are truly thrilling and
frightening, not to mention explicit.
Hopkins does his best with a basic
stereotype of the aloof and unsocia
ble billionaire. (It is never explained
how he amassed his fortune.)
The script by David Mamet has
moments of wit and spark as
Hopkins shares his words of wisdom
with Baldwin (‘You can make a fire
from ice.”) and, likewise, Baldwin
conveys his thoughts on the rich
and powerful. But intermittent
spurts of intelligent dialogue and
appealing actors cannot make up for
the total abandonment of the story
toward the end. Of course, Morse
will learn much from his grueling
experience; unfortunately, audi
ences will walk away with less. R.

“Kicked in the Head” Q
In 1995, Matthew Harrison made
a refreshingly breathless and lyrical
film called “Rhythm Thief,” about a
young man on the run in Manhat
tan’s Lower East Side. “Kicked in
the Head” is a more elaborate and
better-financed version of the same
story, but without the exhilarating
rush the previous film supplied.
Using as its central metaphor old
newsreel footage of the Hindenburg
crashing to earth in flames, it traces
the zigzag scurrying of Kevin
Corrigan’s hapless protagonist, fired
from his job, evicted from his apart
ment and about to be conned by his
uncle into a dangerous errand. As
the small-time scamster uncle,
James Woods is unable to hide the
fact that he’s dealing in nothing but
bluster.
The film, too, is the kind of effort
that tries to compensate for its lack
of inner fire by having somebody
wave a gun around, firing a lot of
shots that never hit anything.
Michael Rapaport’s itchy-fingered
sidekick is left dramatically strand
ed, though Liz Fiorentino’s stew
ardess, on whom Corrigan’s loser
develops a mad crush, momentarily
brings the film to something like
life. But “Kicked in the Head” fires
mostly blanks. R. - M. Black

Michigan Opera Theatre
Scott Piper, in the role of the messenger, gives one of the opera’s better performances.
‘Aida’ doesn’t measure up
Prison launched a career
OPERA, From Page 23
with Radames’ music.
Tenor Scott Piper, who had the
minuscule role of the messenger, dis
played more technical security and
artistic accomplishment than either
Armiliato or DeNolfo. Given the
recurrent weaknesses of the tenors it
casts in major roles, MOT should
seriously consider giving Piper larger
parts.
There is Irina Mishura’s Amneris, a
far cry from her success as last sea
son’s Carmen. Her low notes were
rich and full, but her high notes
turned strident early on, and by the
last act’s trial scene they had degen
erated into ugly shrieks. Her counter
part, Eugenie Grunewald, was more
secure on top, but her voice displays
a noticeable break between head and
chest registers that became irritating
at times.
This leaves us with the two sopra
nos singing the title role. Camellia
Johnson, who sang through a respira
tory infection in the opening perfor
mance, was the single reason for sit
ting through the 3 1 /2-hour produc
tion. Her natural gift is stunning, and
she uses it with a supreme artistic
intelligence that is becoming increas
ingly rare among today’s singers.
Make no mistake: This is a major
voice, one that brooks comparison,
especially in its velvety texture,
seamless legato and freely
approached high notes, with the leg
endary Aida of Leontyne Price, now
retired from the operatic stage.
Marquita Lister, the other Aida,
made it through the performance
without major mishap, her thin,
reedy voice subjected to a role for
which she is so woefully unsuited
that serious vocal disaster would
seem to be just around the bend.
Mark Rucker, who sang Amonasro,
was the only other singer who came
close to approaching Johnson’s level.
His is a true “Verdi baritone,” a flexi
ble instrument that strikes a perfect
balance between secure technique
and vivid personality. Kevin Bell
(Ramfis), James Patterson (the King)
and Barbara Scherrer (the High
Priestess) filled their smaller parts
competently.
The sets and costumes, borrowed
from the San Francisco Opera, are
visually stunning, especially as seen
in James Franklin’s lighting design.
Suzanne Acton’s MOT Chorus,
though severely hampered by
Terleckyj’s decision to turn its mem
bers into meandering mobs, still
sings skillfully.
Ultimately, MOT’S “Aida” is the
company’s first legitimate failure in
the renovated Detroit Opera House.
The reason is simple: It takes more
than one great singer and some
attractive sets and costumes to make
a masterpiece work.
Two performances ofMOYs “Aida”

WRITER, From Page 23
“Alex Seacourt is the metaphor for
my life,” Davis says. “He’s a person
who, like me, went through a terrible
experience. He’s the Phoenix that
rises from the ashes, a better person.”
The oldest of three sons of an
accountant and a schoolteacher,
Davis says his family has a history of
addictive behavior, including drug
abuse and workaholism. He became
addicted to Quaaludes
while studying zoology at
the University of
Michigan, and after almost
being thrown out of his
internal medicine residen
cy at Southern Nevada
Memorial Hospital, he
switched to alcohol.
Despite that, Davis was
successful. He moved to
Utah and opened an
ambulatory urgent care
clinic, which employed a
staff of 49 and made Davis
“more money than I ever
dreamed of.” He bought twin-engine
planes, yachts, Ferraris.
But, he says, “I was really unhappy
... and started doing things in my
business life to self-destruct, subcon
sciously.”
Following his time in solitary - for
pushing prison authorities too hard
to provide some needed eye care, he
says - Davis began haunting the typ
ing room, pecking away without ben
efit of a dictionary or a thesaurus.
When he finished his first book, he
sent it to an agent, who told Davis he
had talent but needed development.
So he began reading instructional
books and closely reading novels by
Clive Kessler, Travis McGee, John
D. McDonald and John Grisham,
paying attention to the nuances of
their styles and to their storytelling
techniques.
Aries (March 21 - April 20)
Your need for a partner’s undivided atten
tion could bring about a serious discussion.
You may receive an invitation from an old
friend.
Taurus (April 21 - May 20)
Your employment situation may be under
scrutiny; is it time to change jobs? Set your
goals and do what is necessary to achieve
them.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Geminis require constant mental stimula
tion or they become bored. Enroll in a class or
two you have been waiting to take.
Cancer (June 21 - July 20)
Your natural creativity will help solve a dif
ficult problem. You may bump into someone
who shares information you need.
Leo (July 21 - Aug. 21)
Don’t make money the only priority when
considering a new job opportunity. A harmless
flirtation may turn into something wild.
Virgo (Aug. 22 - Sept 22)
It will not be easy, but you must be honest
about your feelings with a loved one. A change
in your living situation is on the way.
“Really what I did was I took the
time in my incarceration and pre
tended I was on an aircraft carrier
in the Navy, and I couldn’t get off, or
that I was on spaceship to Mars,”
Davis explains. “I thought What
could I do to make this time the
best possible time?’ I lost weight,
worked out, essentially went back to
school. ...”
“The Plutonium Murders” was
inspired by a magazine article about
radioactive materials
smuggling and finds Alex
Seacourt chasing terror
ists threatening to poison
the world. Former
Columbia TriStar Motion
Pictures chairman Mark
Canton is pursuing a film
version and has men
tioned actors such as
Keanu Reeves or David
Duchovny to star as
Seacourt.
The other books are also
of the action-thriller vari
ety, although Davis
describes the fourth, “Ghost of the
Dead,” as “a more spiritual book,” in
which Seacourt blames himself for
his patients’ deaths, even though
he’s not responsible.
Back in the real world, Davis
(whose 5 1 /2-year-old daughter lives
with his ex-wife in Scottsdale, Ariz.)
hopes to return to medicine and get
back his license to practice. It was
revoked after his conviction.
But he doesn’t fear a return to his
previous life.
“I have the spirit of volunteerism
now,” he says. “I want to give back a
weekend a month in an under
served community. That’s my plan. I
want to keep my hand dabbling a
little bit in medicine, alongside the
writing.
“It’s good that way. I’m doing what
I want to do now.”
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
Resist the temptation to give in to old
habits; you have come so far. Concentrate on
making your home more comfortable.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22)
An unexpected message will send you into
a tailspin. It is OK to be aggressive in the
workplace, but don’t be difficult.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23 - Dec. 20)
Your sign is one of the luckiest in the zodi
ac, though it may not seem that way right
now. Don’t worry; great things are ahead.
Capricorn (Dec. 21 - Jan. 19)
Hold off on that shopping spree; you may
change your mind about what you really
want. Volunteer your time to a favorite chari
ty-
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
You and your partner need to learn to com
promise or at least agree to disagree. Think
twice about making long-term financial com
mitments.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
Get rid of your old attitudes and set your
self on the right path. A sense of well-being
will carry you far in life.

GRAND OPENING PARTY SEPT. 28, 1997— 12-4 P.M.
TT-.T rrn =r~P l UliLrPIlIXJ*
Anticipation is high
for battle of Oct. 25
But stern tests lie ahead for U-M, MSU
The two-way play of All-American Charles Woodson (2) gives U-M plenty to cheer about.
C oming into the weekend,
there was this assumption
that Michigan would face in
Notre Dame about as much
threat as would be posed by Livonia
Churchill High School.
Still, this was Notre Dame. In that
sense, it probably wasn’t real smart -
no matter how
wobbly this Irish
team looks - to
count on Michigan
casually stomping
its friends from
South Bend and,
by virtue, plowing
through the first
six weeks of the
season, unbeaten, unblemished and
all set for the Oct. 25 trip to East
Lansing.
Where, of course, the Wolverines
figure to meet the similarly unbeaten
Spartans of Michigan State - and
everyone thought the street price for
Super Bowl tickets was up there.
It would be great theater if it all
works out according to script.
Michigan and Michigan State, each
6-0, gripping a state and a good por
tion of the college football universe as
they slash at each other in what
would be a fairly improbable duel,
the pinnacle of a rivalry that’s almost
100 years old.
The teams at least have acted as if
they’re up to the dramatics.
Michigan showed in its first two
games that the old, swarming
defense we barely remembered from
Bo Schembechler’s era was alive and
well. The ground game was back, and
Brian Griese was playing so well at
quarterback that hardly anyone
missed Scott Dreisbach, or noticed
that he was now third-string.
Charles Woodson looked like he
was intent on becoming some kind of
Wheaties-box hero the way he was
playing on two sides of the ball. The
offensive line had been patched up
and was juggled in enough ways to
make it absolutely dominant against
Colorado and Baylor.
All of which still left the Wolverines
a long way from being 6-0, particular
ly when the Irish, Northwestern and
Iowa remained ahead of Michigan’s
trip to East Lansing.
State, on the other hand, loomed as
an even better bet to stay untainted
heading into the Michigan game.
The Spartans run the ball even bet
ter than Michigan. They appear to
have an offensive line that’s even bet
ter than U-M’s, and they might have
the best pair of running backs in the
Big Ten in Sedrick Irvin and Marc
Renaud. Todd Schultz has grown up
as a quarterback and the receivers
are solid, if not spectacular.
Most intriguing in any matchup
against Michigan would be State’s
defense, which is taking on finally
the kind of personality expected all
along from a Nick Saban team. The
Spartans are crunchers. Also, they’re
tactically dangerous in the way they
stick to their roles and smother an
offense with
muscle and some
excellent one-on-
one play in the
secondary.
That was the
early profile,
anyway. A good
question is how
long State’s
defensive - or, for that matter, offen
sive - personality will last given the
team’s thin ranks.
MSU has no depth. There aren’t 70
scholarship players available, which
already seems to be taking a toll in
the wake of the Notre Dame game.
Pete Govens, a tough young defensive
tackle, was lost to knee surgery. Amp
Campbell, the kind of defensive back
that could make game-breaking plays
because of his one-on-one talents, was
having major hamstring problems.
Because of that, Saban was looking
at having to change his defensive
strategy, going to more zone coverage
and less man-to-man.
Right there, you forfeit a certain
part of this team’s personality - and
its edge against a team like Michi
gan, which will tear apart a softer
defensive backfield.
That, on the other hand, could be
Michigan’s breakthrough in Lloyd
Carr’s third year - the tenacity and
fire that seems to have returned.
All along, the belief existed that
once Carr had his own coordinators
in place - Jim Hermann on defense is
looking like the go-for-the-throat guy
who has been missing there - he
might just prove that he’s a Rose
Bowl-grade head coach.
People too often get fooled by Carr’s
demeanor, although there has always
been reason to wonder if anything
less than Schembechler’s blowtorch
persona would be enough to regularly
put Michigan back in the Rose Bowl.
A lot of football remains before
either team will have shown as much
in that regard. Michigan has to get
past October’s gauntlet, let alone a
November slate that merely includes
Penn State and Ohio State. Michigan
State has the same assignment.
Could be that they’ll both be blood
ied and limping inside of five weeks.
But, until then, appearances are at
least promising. Which is a good rea
son to look forward to Oct. 25 - and
to a slightly more civilized version of
an Old West showdown.

It’ll be tough for Wings
without Konstantinov
HARRIS, From Page 36
on the fact that the player who was the team’s best
defenseman just four months ago is lying in a bed
in Beaumont Hospital. He is unable to communicate
and has a long recovery period still ahead of him
because of the closed-head injury suffered in the
June 13 limousine accident.
‘There’s some things which are similar and other
things which are different. Bob Johnson was our
coach and Vladdy was one of our top players,” said
Smith. “Bob Johnson passed away and Vladdy is
still with us. The whole year in Pittsburgh we said
it was Bob Johnson’s team, even when Scotty came
aboard from his position as player personnel to help
with the coaching.”
Murphy talked about the mind-set the team will
have to have.
“When you go out and play you definitely have to
set it aside. When you think about Vladdy’s situa
tion, it’s hard to go out and play hockey,” he said.
‘The last thing you want to do is go out and play
hockey. But you have to put it aside.”
Team masseur Sergei Mnatsakanov is able to
speak and write in English and in Russian but has
a weakness on his left side. He’s not considered par
alyzed because he has reflex response there.
“I don’t think you can put out of your mind what
happened this summer,” said Wings General Mana
ger Ken Holland. “Players are people and people
have feelings. It’s something that everyone will
carry around with them for the rest of our lives. We
have the hope both of those guys will get better.
“... It just happened three months ago. Certainly
it’s going to be on guys’ minds. We’ll just have to
look at it as if Vladdy were injured. And when a
player is injured, you still have to go out and win.
hockey games.”
But even without Konstantinov, and despite the
upheaval of the summer months, there’s still a good
chance the Wings will return to the Western
Conference Finals. Despite the moves made by
Dallas during the offseason, Detroit still stands
with Colorado as the class of the conference.
But another trip to the Finals is unlikely.
Fans flock to see Vipers, Howe
By Paul Harris
Journal Sports Writer
There’s plenty of enthusiasm surrounding the
Detroit Vipers as they prepare to begin their fourth
season in Auburn Hills. Not only are they the defend
ing Turner Cup champions, but the great Gordie
Howe also plans to skate a shift in this Friday’s
International Hockey League season opener.
“Both have created a lot of excitement. We’re poised
to start the season better than any year, even our
first year,” said General Manager Rick Dudley. “We’ll
obviously have a big crowd on opening night.”
As of Friday, about 4,000 tickets remained for the
Oct. 3 contest against Kansas City at The Palace. The
Turner Cup banner will also be raised. Tickets were
selling at a rate of about 500 per day according to
team sources.
The key to the season will be goaltending. Last sea
son’s duo, Rich Parent and Jeff Reese, have moved
on. Swede Johan Hedberg is expected to be joined by
Jami Hurme. Other newcomers include former
Ottawa and Boston player Trent McCleary and
Detroit native Keith Aldridge, who played collegiate-
ly at Lake Superior State.
The only bad news is that three of the Vipers’ core
veterans - captain Stan Drulia (eye), center Peter
Ciavaglia (hip) and defensemen Ian Herbers (bone
chips) are bothered by injuries. Herbers is expected
to be out for about a month after having surgery.

A hard lesson in Lionology
Ross finds
more daunting
than he thought
B obby Ross got his first taste
of something last Sunday
that Lions fans have found
hard to swallow for years.
Devoted Lionologists could smell
last week’s 35-17 loss at New
Adams
Orleans coming. The Lions always
play poorly when they’re expected to
play well and vice versa. That
means Detroit should give Green
Bay, the defending Super Bowl
champions, a game today at a sold-
out Silverdome (1 p.m., Channel 2;
WXYT, 1270 AM). But don’t count
on it.
All Ross knows is what he learned
last week - it is going to take him a
lot longer to turn the Lions around
than he thought.
“One thing I harp On is playing
with a level of consistency,” Ross
said. ‘"You can’t rely totally on emo
tion because you’re not going to
have that every game. This game
was a test to me and we haven’t
passed that test.”
That same day, Buffalo spotted
Indianapolis 26 points and came
back to win. But when the Lions fall
behind, bad things seem to keep
happening. Two Scott Mitchell
interceptions and a fumble led to 14
second-quarter Saints points, one on
a poorly-played halfback pass by
Mario Bates and one on Bates’ 74-
yard run.
Even though the Lions fell behind
21-0, Ross said he felt the Lions
would come back after scoring late
in the first half. But the Saints took
the second-half kickoff and nearly
seven minutes off the clock in dri
ving for a score. That effectively
squelched any comeback hopes the
Lions might have harbored.
“I know what comebacks are all
about,” said Ross, who saw his
Maryland team rally from a 31-0
deficit to beat Miami. “There’s a
confidence and a maturity factor
there and a little luck enters into it.
A key was that opening series in the
second half. There was not a lot of
intensity on our side of the ball.
“Part of making a comeback is
having a burning desire to win,
wanting to win very, very badly. I’m
not saying we don’t have that. I’m
saying I don’t know if we have
that.”

There's no way Bobby Ross could give his Lions a thumbs-up after last week's loss.
The Lions’ defense has been con
sidered suspect all season, but it
was burned badly for the first time
against the Saints,, who just let
Bates run behind massive offensive
tackle Willie Roaf all day.
The chances of them holding
down Brett Favre and the Packers
aren’t much better. Linebacker
Antonio London was benched in
favor of George Jamison for today’s
game, but until Ross can upgrade
the personnel, there’s not much he
can do about Detroit’s defensive
shortcomings.
“It’s very important that we play
with a lot of fire,” Ross said. “There’s
no magic to it. We have to work
through it. I went through 2V2 years
of it at Georgia Tech until we got
the right people in there and got the
job done.”
It might not surprise Lions fans
that the team followed a 32-7 win
over Chicago with a loss to the pre
viously winless Saints, but it still
mystifies the players. Just ask
Herman Moore.
“Right now I’m at a loss to try to
explain,” Moore said. “None of the
players want to play poorly, but it
becomes almost a habit until we
break this cycle.”
The next part of the cycle is play
ing well against good teams. It
wouldn’t surprise anyone if the 7V2-
point underdogs give the Packers a
game today. Defensive end Robert
Porcher is counting on it.
“Green Bay isn’t the Super Bowl
champ to us,” Porcher said. “They’re
a division opponent. We play them
twice a year. I think we can beat
them if we play our game, make no
mistakes, fly around and play
aggressive football.”
Even if they pull the upset, it’s too
late for the Lions to quiet the skep
tics, something Moore realizes all
too well.
“If we win, they’ll say, They did
this against Green Bay. Now we’ll
see how they respond after this,’ ”
Moore said. ‘They’ll find a reason
not to believe in us until we take it
to the final game.
“I’m not saying that’s unjust, but
until this town sees us win games
in the playoffs and have an opportu
nity to go to the Super Bowl, what
ever we say doesn’t mean anything.”
But it means something when
Ross says, “We insist very much
that we have people that do it right.
If we don’t, we’ll start looking for
people who may do it right.”
It’s talk now, but you get the feel
ing Ross can back up those words.

The future of rookie shortstop Deivi Cruz, whose fielding has sparkled and whose hitting has improved, is as bright as his smile.
Tigers happy
but eager to
take next step
By Joe Adams
Journal Sports Editor
The Tigers’ regular season might be
ending today, but Randy Smith’s is
just beginning.
Even though Detroit improved more
than anyone, even Smith, might have
dreamed, the Tigers’ general manager
doesn’t plan to stand pat. The Tigers
moved past the .500 mark and held
third place in the American League
East last week, but Smith has bigger
targets in his sights.
“I don’t think you can be satisfied,”
he said. “You should have loftier goals
than finishing .500, but at the end of
the year, you can just take a deep
breath and realize we’ve got a long
way to go, but we’ve come a long way.
A lot of things have gone right for us.”
Improved defense and pitching con
tributed most to the Tigers’ rise from a
53-109 disaster in 1996. With
American League stolen base champi
on Brian Hunter in center field, Dami-
on Easley at second and rookie Deivi
Cruz at short, the Tigers have
strength up the middle they didn’t
have a year ago. -
First baseman Tony Clark and right
fielder Bobby Higginson continued the
steady improvement they first dis
played a year ago, and Travis Fryman
was as dependable as ever at third.
“We knew we’d be better this year
and that we were not as bad last year
as our record indicated,” said Tigers
manager Buddy Bell. “We only have
two positions, catcher and right field,
where we had some inconsistencies in
our play. We’ve got a nucleus now that
understands what needs to be done.
“I’m really proud of the guys who
were here last year. One of the big con
cerns in spring training was how they
would be affected by what happened
last year. As it turned out, they were
affected in a very positive way. These
guys endured a lot.”
One thing that helped accelerate
the young Tigers’ learning process is
the fact they were uncommonly heal
thy this season. Other than shortstop
Orlando Miller, who missed half the
season with a back injury, nobody
spent a lot of time on the disabled list.
“They now understand how long a
season really is,” Bell said. “They’re
starting to understand what it takes
to get the job done every day.
Last season, the Tigers went 4-22 in
September and were winless at Tiger
Stadium. This month, Detroit knocked
off Atlanta, Baltimore, Seattle and
today’s opponent, the New York Yank
ees. The Tigers’ showing against play
off contenders is a measure of how
much the team has grown.
“We were lucky we played teams in
September that were still in the play
off race.” Bell said. “The Atlanta series
came at a great time for us (Labor
Day). That really got us started.”
The course Detroit’s offseason takes
won’t be charted until after the expan
sion draft on Nov. 18. Pitcher Willie
Blair is the only free agent to deal
with and the Tigers might explore
trading Fryman, who will be paid $6.5
million in 1998, the final year of his
contract. Rookie Juan Encarnacion
will get every opportunity to win the
right-field job in spring training and
Raul Casanova had good and bad
moments at catcher.
“The jury’s still out on Cassie,” Bell
said. “He certainly has the tools but he
didn’t play on a consistent basis, he’s a
young player and he tends to lose con
centration at times. But it’s asking a
lot of a young catcher to call a game,
manage a pitching staff and drive the
ball at the plate.”
Smith likely won’t make as many
moves as he did last season, but he
doesn’t think he will have to do as
much.
“It’s a lot harder when you only have
a few pieces,” Smith said. “When you
have a lot of pieces it’s easier to fill in
the holes. It’s easier to go from a con
tender to a championship team than it
is to start from the bottom.
“One thing we could use is another
professional hitter. We have one in
Higginson, but we need another guy
who hits .300 and has a good
walk/strikeout ratio. Also, you can
never have enough pitching.”
The Tigers still need more of that,
but they have found a No. 1 starter
(Justin Thompson) and a closer (Todd
Jones) this season.
A lot of progress has already been
made, and Bell deserves as much cred
it as Smith does. Smith uncovered the
talent, but Bell is the one that sets the
tone and teaches his young players
how to be professionals. So far, they
have proven to be quick studies.
“Smitty doesn’t just get players, he
gets talented players with character,”
Bell said. “I’d rather be associated
with these guys than any team we
play. These are guys you can count on.
They’ve come back from a lot of bad
games and tough times.”
Gordon-Martin Winston Cup points race goes according to the script
By Christopher M. Singer
Journal Staff Writer
Fans, race teams, the media and
rival racing organizations all do their
share of bleating about the way
NASCAR juggles its rules for Winston
Cup racing year after year, whenever
and however the sanctioning body is
moved to do so.
Year after year, the battle for the
Winston Cup and the $1 million-plus
that goes with it also ends in a
cliffhanger at the last race at Atlanta.
As the finale nears for this season,
the made-for-television script calls for
a dedicated, determined veteran -
Mark Martin, in a Ford Thunderbird,
to fight the brilliant kid in a Chevrolet
Monte Carlo - Jeff Gordon, right down
to last turn on the last lap.
This week’s episode is the Hanes
500 at the oldest track still on
NASCAR’s schedule, the 50-year-old
Martinsville (Va.) Speedway (12:40
p.m., ESPN).
Today is the last short track race of
1997 and brakes are critical on the
.526-mile oval. It’s tricky to set up a
car for Martinsville. The straights are
asphalt and the turns are concrete.
The trick is getting a car to react well
on two completely different surfaces.
Martin won last Sunday’s fuel econ
omy run at Dover, Del., while Gordon
finished seventh. Gordon now leads
Martin by 105 points.
Foregone conclusions
Providing a contrast to NASCAR
racing, the biggest question left to be
answered in the PPG CART World
Series is: Will Alex “Zig-Zag” Zanar-
di spin donuts at the end of the race?
A measure of the drama quotient in
CART racing - today’s World Series
500 at Roger Penske’s brand new
California Speedway in Fontana,
about 40 miles east of Los Angeles,
won’t be telecast live (8 p.m., ESPN).
The PPG Cup winner was decided
at the last show at Laguna Seca, Calif.
Zanardi won the trophy and PPG’s $1
million bonus.
The title sponsor for today’s race, by
the way, had been Marlboro. But in
health-conscious California - and in
light of all that has transpired
between Big Tobacco and government
- it was decided it might be better to
rename the “Marlboro 500.”
Canada vs. Germany
Two-time world champion Michael
Schumacher earned himself a 10-
second stop-and-go penalty during the
Austrian Grand Prix for passing
under a yellow caution flag. Williams-
Renault driver Jacques Villeneuve
recorded his sixth win of the season.
So going into today’s Grand Prix of
Luxembourg, the Team Ferrari driver
leads Villeneuve by a single point
(7:45 a.m., ESPN2).
Nitro war in Kansas
Cory McClenathan has made it to
six final rounds and won five NHRA
Winston Drag Racing events since his
Joe Gibbs Racing team debuted their
new Top Fuel dragster at Denver.
Cory Mac has moved to within 75
points of first place Gary Scelzi and
the Johnson family’s dragster. He will
be the story of the Craftsman Nation
als today at Heartland Park in
Topeka, Kan. (Live first-round cover
age at noon, live final-round coverage
at 5:30 p.m. on TNN).

Encore unlikely for champs
L arry Murphy and Barry Smith

This will be the second time the

Journal photo by REBECCA COOK
Now that Wings captain Steve Yzerman has won a Stanley Cup, he can expect special attention from opponents in front of the net.
team tragedy to concentrate on defend
ing the Stanley Cup.
Murphy, 36, was a member of the
1991 Pittsburgh team which won the
Cup and Smith was an assistant coach.
But that August, coach Bob Johnson was
diagnosed with a brain tumor. He would
die that November.
After Johnson’s tumor was discovered,
he was replaced by Scotty Bowman, who
had been the Penguins’ director of player
personnel. That team, led by Mario
Lemieux, repeated as Cup champions.
But without Vladimir Konstantinov,
there’s very little chance the Wings can
match the back-to-back accomplishment
of the Penguins. Actually, the chances of
Detroit repeating were slim anyway con
sidering the Penguins were the last team
to win the Cup two seasons in a row and
Mike Vernon - who was in goal for all 16
of the Wings’ playoff victories last spring
- is no longer a Red Wing. He was sent
to the San Jose Sharks last month for
picks in the 1998 and 1999 NHL drafts.
If the team can’t come to terms with
Sergei Fedorov and are forced to trade
the enigma, that would be another huge
blow to any thoughts of repeating.
But the most glaring loss will be
Konstantinov. He simply cannot be
replaced on the ice and his presence and
leadership in the locker room will be
sorely missed. But the team cannot dwell
