council okays ban
bottomless dancingOciown Village Council
moved to end topless dancingin the village Tuesday night ,but the performances maynot fade into history without afight.
Council approved a pro-posed ordinance banning bothtopless and bottomless danc-ing by a 3-0 vote, with twocouncilmen abstaining. Theaction came in the wake of ape t i t i on dr ive demandingaction. Over 90 signatureswere reportedly collected in adrive spearheaded by twoarea .ministers, Rev. Paul L.A m s t u t z and Rev. GaryBugaski.
A handful of village resi-dents were present, includingsupporters and opponents ofthe dancing which made itsdebut in Gagetown early thiswinter.
Under terms of the ordi-nance, which is scheduled totake effect 20 days after itspublication in next week'sChronicle, the ban on toplessand bottomless performanceswould apply to cover waitersand waitresses in establish-men t s serving food anddrinks.
It would not apply totheatres.
A violation would be a
misdemeanor, punishable bya $100 fine and-or a 90-day jai lsentence.
Attorney Forrest Walpolesaid the ordinance was pat-terned after similar statuteson the books in California andhas been upheld by the Cali-fornia Supreme Court.
The ordinance specificallybans any exposure of thefemale breast below the nip-ple.
It did not pass withoutdiscussion. Trustee DennisKoch asked Rev. Bugaski ifhe (Bugask i ) had seen theperformances. He said hehad.
"Personally, I enjoyed theshow," Koch said. "Not be-cause it was topless."
Vi l l age President Law-rence Cummings said theshow itself wasn't the issue.
"We aren't kicking aboutthe show," he said. "What thepeople are hollering about isthe topless part."
Sally Goff , daughter of AlBennett , who owns the barand hotel where the dancingis held, challenged the val-idi ty of the petit ion signaturesopposing the dancing.
"You can't take those peti-tions seriously," she said."The same people who signed
those petitions signed otherpeti t ions in favor of keepingit."
Bugaski said everyone whosigned the peti t ions knewwhat they were signing. Onespectator favoring the danc-ing said supporters of theenter tainment had not had achance to be heard and thatcouncil was going against thewishes of the people.
"I'm trying to represent thepeople," C u m m i n g s said."We've got 92 people whosigned. The people have had achance."

Expanded program gels nod
Cass City girls' sports
get school board boost
FIRE DESTROYED a mobile home and two-story farm house owned by James Hickeylocated near the intersection of M-53 and Canboro Road, seven miles southwest of Bad Axe.Five fire departments, including Elkland township, fought the blaze. Loss was set at $21,000.
The Cass City School boardauthor ized an est imated$2,500 increase in the schoolbudget Monday night in itsregular meeting at Cass CityHigh School when three new-athletic programs were giventhe green light.
Biggest benefactors of theboard's largess were thegirls. For them, two newprograms were added at acost of some $1,800, plus thesalary of the coaches in-volved.
Athletic Director RobertStickle recommended thatgiihi' junior varsity softbal!be offered and Junior Highgirls' track initiated.
Stickle was probably moti-vated by two facts. The first isthat 65 girls petitioned forJunior High track and thesecond is that the school isrequired by Federal law tomove towards more sports forgirls.
There was unanimous ap-proval of the new girls' sportsbut the third section of themotion that passed by a 5-2margin was not approved by

all members of the board.That section was the estab-
lishment of cross countrytrack for boys in the fa l l .Robert Him and Arthur Sev-erance voted aga ins t themeasure because it includedthe new boys' sport.
There will be about 450persons competing in boys'sports and about 365 in girls'sports next year.
BAND PROGRAM
While the sports programsreceived the green light, arequest by George Bushongfor an additional band direc-tor was not as favorablyreceived.
Although it is not total lydead, it is far from receivingboard approval. Supt. DonaldGrouse is against taking chil-dren from a class for indivi -dual band instruction. He alsopointed out that two otherschools in the area that hadI'.i- persons or more teachingband have moved back to oneinstructor.
The request was tabledunt i l at least the next meet-ing.

O T I I K K BUSINESS
The board granted CoachRon Nurnberger the right tohold a c l in ic for f i f t h and sixthgraders the week of June7-12. Cost to the studentwill be $6 to cover the cost oftue coaching and six assis-tants from the varsity squad.
Sessions will be from 9 a.m.to noon for f i f t h graders and 1p.m. to 4 p.m. for sixthgraders.
There wil l be a hot dog
cookout on Sa turday , in-cluded in the modest fee.
Nurnberger said that he feltit was important to he able toteach the boys good funda-mentals and the value of teamplay at this age level.
Two resignations were ac-cepted and the application ofBethel Sunderland for a leaveof absence to go back toschool was denied because itwould set a precedent infuture cases.
The resignations were fromPam Beardslee, intermediatescience, and Brian Sutton,music and English.

Mrs. Dorothy Stahlbaum,representing the Retail Divi-sion of the Chamber of Com-merce, said her group favorscompleting restoration of theCul tu ra l Center's secondstory before taking on an-other project.
Other suggestions includedwalking tours, an oral historyand museum windows indowntown businesses. It wasalso suggested that the festi-val might include formaldedication of the swimmingpool and a plaque honoringGeneral Lewis Cass whichwas presented to the villageby the Masons nearly twoyears ago.
BUS SAFETY
Bus safety was a boardtopic aga in . High SchoolPrincipal Russell Richardsrecommended that bus safetyrules be included in the highschool handbook and that theCitizens for Improved Educa-tion buy a Central MichiganUniversi ty f i lm for showing tostudents and parents of prob-lem riders.
Stickle recommended thata program with a f i l m be runin the fa l l and repeated in thespring when problems tend tooccur.
It was indicated that a f i l mmight be purchased from theRegion 10 Educational MediaCenter for use of all schools.
President Hirn's suggestionthat no f i lms be accepted foruse unt i l both the high schooland the intermediate schoolteachers and bus drivers havepreviewed them was adopted.

A two-phase constructionprogram, i n c l u d i n g anemergency room and out-patient c l in ic , has been an-nounced by authori t ies atHills and Dales General Hos-pital .
The entire building pro-gram carries an estimatedprice tag of $225,000 and isexpected to begin late thisyear with renovations in thehospital bui ld ing itself.
Administrator Randy D.Howard said the 55 by 88-footcl inic will be constructed atthe north end of the hospitalas a separate building, at-tached with a corridor.
Cost of the clinic alone isestimated at $125,000. Planscall for the clinic to includetwo emergency rooms, anoperating room suite, a re-covery room, waiting room,nurses office, laboratory andstorage.
Howard said if the projectis approved by the 26 stateand federal agencies re-quired, construction on theclinic itself could begin byMarch, 1977. He said approvalwould mean the hosp i t a lcould apply for a federal

grant to help finance con-struction.
Before the clinic can begin,however , another $100,000worth of renovations in thehospital building must bemade, Howard said.
"The State Department ofPublic Health requires thatwe provide a 90 per cent pureair exchange in our operatingrooms," Howard said. "Pres-ently, we don't have that.They also require dressingrooms in our' obstetrics uni tas well as a nurses changingroom. We're being pushedvery hard on these improve-ments and if they aren'tmade, our license could betaken away from us."
He said once any updatingbegins on the bui lding, theent i re s t r u c t u r e mus t bebrought up to standards. Thiswill include an extension ofthe sprinkling system on thefirst floor.
Once these "Phase I" im-provements begin, then workon the clinic can start. How-ard said hospital authoritieshope to begin renovations byDecember, with clinic con-s t ruc t ion beginning aboutthree months later.
SEPARATE BUILDING
Howard said the clinic canbe built for about one-thirdthe normal cost since it is aseparate building. It will notbe required to meet the rigidregulations the hospital itselfmust meet.
"This won't mean the clinicwill be any less safe," he said."What it means is that we cansave considerable money do-ing it this way."
He said construction costsare estimated at about $30 persquare foot, compared withbetween $70 to '$100 per squarefoot if it were attached to thehospital.
The clinic will set about 30feet north of the presentbuilding and be connectedwith a brick corridor wide

Everyone knows the Com-munists can't be trusted.Nixon himself said so for 30years. That's how he wonelections. The treacherousCommies are why 40,000American youths died in Viet-nam — to keep Red dominosfrom toppling into New Jer-sey.
If it weren't for the Com-munists , there would be a lotof CIA plotters s i t t ing aroundwi th no one to plot against.The U.S. must be ever vigi-lant to keep the dir ty Redsfrom stealing our secrets. Ifwe're not careful , they mightlearn there is no such state asNew Hampshire. It is really aTV test laboratory for NBC'scomputers and Walter C'ron-kite's sincerity.
So who knows more U.S.secrets than Richard Nixonwho had CLASSIFIEDstamped on his jockey shorts?He used to say ssshhh whenPat told him it was Tuesday.

As President he knew all thesecrets because he madethem. Is it wise for the U.S. toallow all that secret informa-tion to fly off in a Communistairliner, to picnic and gossipin the shade of the GreatWall?
After a l l , Richard Nixon isnot just another retired civilservant. He diun ' t want toleave the White House but hegot caught in the cookie jar,with the lid closed above him.He went on TV and lied toeveryone, i n c l u d i n g thethousands of people whovoted for him, all of whomhave since died.
As Congressman Rieglepointed out, Nixon has neveradmitted any guil t or re-morse. He thinks he was theinnocent vict im of a ki l lerpress and an undeniable pro-pensity to sweat around theupper l ip . He is bitter that hemust fly all the way to Chinato hear applause.
The Communists paid Nix-on's travel expenses and hon-ored his gimpy leg wi th itsown private ambulance. Theytreated him the same way healways treated himself — likea king. This had to be headystuff af ter the seclusion of SanClementeand the h u m i l i a t i o nof being called a crook onnat ional TV several times aweek.
What more would the Redshave to do to get Nixon to b lnbevery U.S. secret he knows':'Make Julie editor of Pravcla?
Nixon's friendliness withthe Communists is a risk toour nat ional security. Hispassport should be l i f ted. Inthe name of Alger Hiss.

t h a t extra mile to cooperate.The paper would face a
major adjustment if the doorsever closed.
I thought of all this theother day when PostmasterGeneral Benjamin F. Bailarannounced another def ic i t untop of the $1.3 b i l l ion alreadyposted by the postal depart-ment.
The mount ing defici t indi -cates t h a t perhaps the limehas come to take a long hardlook at the department andmake some tough decisions.
Cost-wise I'd guess what wedo in the quiet l i t t l e Thumb ofMichigan is insignificant. Butwhen obvious costly proced-ures are allowed to continuehere, i t ' s hard to believe thatthey aren' t runn ing the samein the big population areas.Histor ical ly , we country folkare more frugal than our citycousins.
There are plenty of postoffices tha t are running thatshouldn ' t be. Just how manyis another story. Maybe thereis need for only one post of f icein the entire Thumb?
United °arcel services theThumb from one building inCass Ci ty .
Maybe the need is one percounty? I'd hate to have to goto Caro to deliver the papersbut if it were adjust or perish,we'd adjust .
I t ' s wonderful to have thatmail slipped into my boxevery morning rain or shine
. . . I can meet someimpor tan t deadlines tha t way
But is everyday servicereally necessary? Just be-cause we've always had itdoesn't mean that we can't dowithout i t .
Certainly, Saturday deliv-ery is a luxury that we can dowi thout . . . perhaps Monday,Wednesday and Friday wouldf i l l the bi l l . It's no secret thateverytime the postal ratesgo up the volume goes down.And when the volume dropsthe cost per un i t goes up, sowhen mail rates double anddouble and double againnoth ing is really gained.
Not only do we need to lookat what services are neces-sary, we need to examine thedaily work load to see where"changes can be made to makethe hours worked more pro-ductive. There should be anincentive program for everypostmaster and employeethat rewards efficient, costcut t ing operations.
In other words, run it like abusiness. After all that wasthe idea when the postalsystem was reorganized.
That was the idea . . . but'.hat's all it has been . . . anidea.
It has yet to work inpractice and don't hold yourbreath waiting for it to hap-pen.

Mrs. Smith learned that her t rave l l ing acquaintance lived inWashington, D.C. To prove the point she asked the lady if shehad ever seen Mr. Ford even though she lived in the nat ion 'scapital.

What's wrong with aspirin?
BY DR. WILLIAM J. WELCH
The Want Ads Are Newsy Too!
If aspirin were a moderndrug instead of an almostlegendary relic of the past,some have said, it would havebeen r ight ly classed with themiracles of modern medicine.
Any agent that can abolisha headache, ease the red,swollen joints of rheumatism,relieve an aching back andreduce a spiking fever surelydeserves better than to be putdown as of no therapeutic im-portance.
Aspirin is a superb anti-in-flammatory agent. And al-though evidence to support itsrole as a sleeping pill is onlyanecdotal, tens of thousandsof responsible citizens willassure you that tablet atbedtime banishes insomniaand allows you to awaken inthe morning without a traceof sleeping-pill grogginess.However, as with all goodthings, aspirin has an under-side.

Some 10 years ago, in-creased bleeding was re-ported in patients with hemo-philia who took aspirin. Thiswas later found to be due tothe aspi r in ' s in ter ferencewith part of the body's blood-clotting mechanism.
Clearly, aspirin should beavoided by any person with apotential bleeding disorderand probably for anyone un-dergoing surgical proceduresin which blood loss may besignificant.
That a single dose of aspirinmay have a maximal effectwhich may persist as long asten days has been demon-strated. Therefore, aspirinshould probably be withheldfor 10 days before and aftersurgery.
Aspirin is not alone in itseffect on the clotting mecha-nism. This effect is sharedwith other medications, in-cluding antihistamines andthorazine derivatives. Of par-ticular importance is theknowledge that many over-the-counter nostrums containantihistamines and aspirinand should be used with care.
Happily, there is a substi-tute for aspirin, equally effec-tive as a pain reliever andquite as capable of bringingdown a high fever. It has noeffect on the clotting mecha-nism, thus not carrying withit the risk of causing bleeding.
The generic name of thisaspirin-substitute is "aceta-minephen." A recent so-called "double-blind" controlstudy, reported in the "Jour-nal of the American MedicalAssociation," provides soundsupport for this substitute foraspirin.
It is almost as if one wereannouncing the end of an erawhen one says somethingunflattering about aspirin,especially since legend has itthat every doctor awakenedin the night by a patient issupposed to say: "Take twoaspirin and call me in themorning."
But now we know thataspirin is not always as safeand as harmless as we used tothink.

KETCHUM'S KNAPSACK
Unman those
man holes
By Jim Ketchum
One stitch at a time— that's how it's
been for quilter Mrs. Helen LittleM i c h i g a n ' s L e g i s l a t u r e
may not be able to find a wayout of the state's financialsqueeze but it did find time toconsider the status of themanhole-excuse me, person-hole.
Last week the House passeda bill changing the word"manhole" to "personhole"on a 56-41 vote. Stocks in 16dictionary companies immed-iately dropped 12 points and45 l inguis t ics professorsthrew themselves from thetop of the Empire StateBuilding.
"Well, we have chairper-sons, so why not person-holes," Rep. Josephine Hun-singer, (D-Detroit) said. "It'sall for equality."
And if that weren't enough,Rep. K i rby Holmes( R - U t i c a ) , said de-sexingwork holes would boost Mich-igan's image as a leader inworkers and women's rights.
"This is def ini te ly going toput Michigan on the maptomorrow morning," Holmessaid. "Michigan has longbeen known as a leader inworker's legislation."
Which must have meantthat from now on, lace cur-tains and flowered hangingswould adorn every personholein the state.
Think of the revolution inwork hole design such a billwould set of f . No more cigarsmoke, beards or dirty jokesin the sewer. Ed Norton wouldbe lost amid form-f i t t ing cov-eralls, lipstick and hairspray.
Heavy lids on personholeswould have to be replacedwith electrically lifted covers.And hardhats would have tocome in pastels.
How much more progres-sive can you get? Coming onthe heels of Ms, chairperson,
spokesperson, Congressper-son and newsperson, whatwas lef t?
Apparently the move was alittle too progressive becausein the same session, Houseleaders recalled the bill and
managed to get it killed.Those linguistics professorsnever had a chance.
It's uncertain if the legis-lature will try another shot atdoing the Webster Dictionarycompany's job again soon. Ifit does and the move sticks,the door wi l l be open toeliminate anything wi th manor men in it.
Women wi l l become woper-sons. Menthol w i l l change topersonthol. Menopause w i l lswitch to personpausc andmentor wil l become person-tor.
Even names won ' t besacred. Edwin Newman w i l lbe forced in to becoming Ed-win Ncwpcrson. To do herpa r t , Lady Bi rd Johnsonwould become Lady BirdJohnpcrson and Bal t imoreOriole th i rd baseman (oops,baseperson) would switch hisname to Brooks Robinperson.
It's easy to see how th i swhole thing could get ent i re lyout of hand. Which is how itmust, have gotten to theLegislature in the f i rs t place.A n y t h i n g c o m i n g beforeelected representatives has tobe total ly out of hand before itgets there at al l .
To keep the t radi t ion going,our solons make sure it staysout of hand until the chiefexecutive cither k i l l s it wi th aveto or decides its too far outof hand for anybody to doanything about and signs itinto law.
As a newspaper m a n ,though, I can ' t knock themtoo hard. Will Rogers used tosay he never lacked materialfor his humor column whenCongress was in session.
So keep it up, MichiganLegislature. We all need agood laugh every now andthen.
Mrs. Helen Li t t le of CassCity didn't make her firstquil t last week. Or last month .Or even last year.
She's made them a lotlonger than the 19 years sheand a group of friends havegathered each Tuesday toqui l t at her home on ChurchStreet.
"I made my first one in1912," Mrs. Little said with asmile. "I embroidered theblocks and my mother putthem together. I made eachblock d i f fe ren t . I used it foryears and years u n t i l it got soworn I couldn't use it."
She s t i l l has that qui l t . Eachof the 72 squares depicts adif ferent scene.
That was the beginning of ahobby that 's benefitted morepersons than herself.
Since 1957, her group hasraised over $:),500 selling thehand-made qu i l t s . Some wentfor no th ing while others weresold for only half what theywere worth.
"Our qui l ts have helped put
over $1,500 in the buildingfund of the Novesta Church ofChrist," Mrs. Little said.
Quilt ing comes almost assecond nature for Mrs. Lit t le ,whose nimble fingers guideneedle and thread through thematerial with ease.
"It helps keep my fingerslimber," the 71-year-old Mrs.Little said.
She recalled watching hermother make qui l ts back onthe Novesta township farmwhere she grew up.
"She made lots of them,"Mrs. Little said. "She madethem by herself and I re-member she made quilts formy three brothers and me forChristmas presents the yearsiie died. She died in Novem-ber but our qui l t s were done."
Quil t ing was a commonhobby in those days, Mrs.Lit t le said, since there was noradio or television and fewautomobiles to take up ayoung person's time.

Mrs. Little considers it ahobby, but she doesn't thinkit's all that d i f f i c u l t . The mainthing it takes is t ime and lotsof patience.
"You have to be careful totake small , even stitches thatgo clear through," Mrs. Lit t lesays. "You have to make sureyour finger is on the under-side of the qui l t at all times."
Mrs. Litt le says she likes towork on qui l t pieces some-times while she watches tele-vision in the evenings. Shealso has a qui l t loom in herbasement. Parts of the loomarc thought to be over GOyears old.
Mrs. Little said she ac-quired the loom through afriend who moved from CassCity several years ago.
Generally, there's a qui l t inthe making on the loom. It 'shere that she and her group offive "quilters" gather eachTuesday morning for a qu i l t -ing session.
"I generally get startedaround 8:150 or so and by 10,the rest of the group hasarrived," she said. "We stopfor lunch and then work un t i labout three in the afternoon."

Ministers
seek local
topless ban
The Cass City Area Minis-terial Association is seeking avillage ordinance banningtopless dancing in Cass City.
The association decided toseek an ordinance prohibit ingthe dancing,during a meetingheld Thursday at Cass CityPresbyterian church.
The group wants an ordi-nance on the books to preventthe dancing which made itsThumb area debut in Gage-town early this winter. Onemember of the association,Rev. Paul Amstutz of theGagetown United Methodistchurch, has been an out-spoken critic of the dancingand has worked for passage ofa Gagetown o rd inanceagainst it.
Rev. James Van Dellen ofGood Shepherd Lutheranchurch, was designated tocheck into existing villagestatutes. He reported Tues-day -there are currently nolaws on the books prohibitingtopless dancing in Cass City.
The subject is expected tobe discussed at next Tues-day's village council session.
t ime, as many as 20 quiltsawaited the group.
Each qui l t sells for about30 dollars, she says. Her
f a v o r i t e p a t t e r n i s the"double wedding ring", u t i l i z -ing intertwined circles ofbrightly-colored cloth on alight background.
Just to keep herself inpractice. Mrs. Little alsoqui l ts once a month with theElmwood Missionary Circle.
"I th ink qui l t ing is an art,"she savs. "I don't th ink it 's
one that too many youngpeople are taking up becausethey're too busy."
She has exhibited her worksat an art show held a littleover a year ago at Cass CityHigh School and also quiltedduring Artrain's visit back in1972.
"I'd really like to find morepeople interested in quilting,"she said.
In spite of the fact thatfewer women qu i l t thesedays, she thinks quil ts them-
selves are more popular thanever, judging by the backlogof work awaiting her group.
She said one womanbrought in a quilt that wasabout 50 years old that hadnever been f in ished. Thegroup completed it and itwent into use.
Mrs. Little says she isn'tready to put down her needleand thread.
"I'll keep at it as long as Ican," she said smiling. "Ienjoy it."
MRS. HELEN LITTLE displays her favorite quilt pattern, thedouble wedding ring. A veteran quilter, Mrs. Little has been part ofa quilting group since 1957 that meets weekly.

AROUND THE FARM
Thoughts afterthe stormBy Don Kebler
After my travels in thecounty I would like to expressthese thoughts in the after-math of the ice storm.
First o f f , our professionalfarmers exemplified theirtremendous abi l i ty to reactfrom a disastrous situationand improvise for their needsmost rapidly. Where did thefarmers learn to react andimprovise like this? The an-swer is simple - they grew upand developed this enviableability because it was neces-sary for survival .
The farmer is far lessdependent on outside helpthan any other single segmentof our population. He's had tobe almost everytime a pieceof equipment broke downduring the cr i t ical equipmentneed periods. Sometimes lessthan a day out of the fieldswould cost him a crop if hedidn ' t make the repair h im-self. So it's a way of life forfarmers to have these ab'jli-ties. 'f]
Another way of l i f e amongour farmers is to share andhelp out the neighbor. I heardmany stories second-hand oflivestock people sharing gen-erators unt i l each had pro-cured his own unit .
They shared chores, ranerrands, shared their homesand facil i t ies. I also heard offarmers milking their cows,re-charging their freezersand b r i n g i n g t h e i r housetemperatures up wi th theirgenerators, spending anoth-er ten to twelve hours movingtheir generator from house tohouse around town to supplyfreezer, sump pump and fur-nace electrical needs.
C. Hamilton
dies March 9Funeral services were held
Friday for Charles' S. Hamil-ton, 71, Mayville. who diedTuesday, March 9.
He was bom Sept. 10, 1904,in Evergreen township, son ofthe late Andrew and Marga-ret Hamilton. He was a 1923graduate of Cass City HighSchool.
Survivors include his wid-ow, the former Dora Kritz-man; three daughters, oneson, and one sister, Mrs. EarlHarris of Cass City. Onebrother, Ivan, preceded himin death.
Rev. Keith Mead officiatedat the funeral, held at theBlackmore and Tubbs Chap-el, Mayville.
Burial was in Rich ceme-tery, Mayville.
Progressive
Class plans
retreatMr. and Mrs. Harvey Walt-
er entertained 18 members ofthe Progressive Class ofSalem UM church, Thursdayevening, March 11. Duringthe business meeting, planswere made for a, familyretreat to be held June 25-27at the Pigeon River campgrounds. Mrs. Dale Buehrlyand Mrs. David Loomis are incharge of arrangements.
A potluck supper \vasserved at the close of .thebusiness session. The nextmeeting will be April 8 at theDavid Loomis home.
About two hours of gener-ator time was needed to meetthe basic needs. I know of atleast one orchard that turnedthe temperature down in oneof the apple storage rooms toprovide refrigerator need tokeep meal for at least one ofthe food stores.
How about the farm wiveswho were washing clothes forpeople without electricity oravailing their bathing facil-ities to less fortunate.
The list is far longer thanyou or I can imagine and I'msure people in urban areasshared when they could.
Perhaps the most despic-able occurrence during lastweek's emergency was theprice gouging done by certainpeople selling generators. Ihaven't heard of this beingdone by our own countydealers and it's too bad that afew people took advantage ofa near disastrous situation togouge distressed people.
While this was going on,dealers in our county wereselling generators for whatthey paid.
Lastly, my observations asof last Saturday led me tobelieve that dairy, livestockand poultry producers whointended to buy and couldafford generators, had them.

Whywas so much electric serviceout for so long?
Those who were inconvenienced are entitledto answers. Here, from Detroit Edison, areanswers to the questions that we have beenasked most.
Southeastern Michigan has just experienced oneof the worst ice storms in its history. In terms of disrup-tion of electrical service, it was the worst disaster in the73-year period during which Detroit Edison has servedthe people of this area.
So severe were the effects of the storm — com-pounded by succeeding rain, wind, and electrical storms—that it took several days to determine the full extentof the damage.
One out of every five customers was affected directlyby interrupted service during this period. Few, if any,escaped the storm without any inconvenience. Accord-ingly, we are making every effort to insure that everyonehas the facts about the storm and the electrical servicedisruption and restoration resulting from it.
How extensive was the damage?To date we have counted more than 300,000 homes andbusinesses that have been without electricity at sometime since Monday night March 1. Thus the storm hasaffected directly more than one million people. Hardesthit were Oakland County with 87,000 homes andbusinesses out of service, the Thumb area with 81,000,and the Detroit area with 79,000. To put this in perspec-tive, a storm is normally severe if we receive 5,000 tele-phone calls. So far we have received nearly 225,000calls regarding this storm!
Could anything have been doneto avoid such severe damage?Not that we know of. We have continued to place toppriority on maintaining both our electrical system andthe skills of our crews. However, there is no way toavoid the effects on electric power lines of naturaldisasters such as this.
Why were the extent of damage andnumber of outages originally underestimated?Because this storm dwarfed anything ever experiencedin the past, the "normal" indices did not apply. Forexample, where circuit disruptions commonly cut powerin 10-20 percent of the homes they cover, this time theywere affecting 70-90 percent. Only detailed and time-consuming visual inspections and data analysis ulti-mately revealed the true figures. In addition, the problemof fallen poles—more than 1,000—and new wire re-quirements as high as a million feet are totally unprece-
dented. However, the underestimate in no way delayeda single service restoration. Emergency crews were re-quested from neighboring u t i l i t i es early Tuesday eve-ning, March 2, when approximately 16,000 calls hadbeen received.
How were repair priorities determined?First pr ior i ty is always to restore facilities critical tohealth and safety, such as hospitals and municipal pump-ing facilities, homes that contain life-support equipment,such as kidney dialysis'machines, and fallen exposedwires. Second priority is assigned to facilities that willproduce the greatest number of service restorations inthe shortest possible time.
Did certain geographic areasreceive special treatment?No. The Thumb area is the last to have complete res-toration. That, however,' is due to the difficulty ofdetermining the extent of the damage there, the needfor extensive rebui lding, the time involved in assemblinglarge quantities of materials and manpower, and theadded obstacles of mud and water.
Why has it taken so long to complete the repairs?Beyond the factors already noted, much of the damageoccurred—or reoccurred—during subsequent rain, windand electrical storms. Consequently, new outages werestill developing through last weekend. Perhaps thewhole problem is put in better perspective if you considerthat nearly one-fifth of our entire electrical distributionsystem had to be restored, and in some cases almostcompletely rebuilt.
How many people were involvedin making the repairs?In all more than 5,000 Detroit Edison employees, con-tract personnel and crews borrowed from other utilitieswere directly involved, turning their maximum effort torestoring service disruptions following this storm. Weare extremely proud of what they have done.
Suppose my estimated bill .is too high because of an outage?This may happen. If it does, you may pay the bill andany overpayment wil l be adjusted with the next reading.Or you can call or visit your nearest Edison office andask us to adjust the bill based on the amount of timeyou were out of service. In either case, the billing will becorrected at the next meter reading.
What did we learn for the future?The Detroit Edison Company has been dealing withstorms throughout its history. In so doing we have con-
stantly improved our capability. Most recently we hadinstituted a centralized storm center in our Detroitheadquarters, consolidated all of our Oakland countyoperations in a single divisional headquarters building,and developed a computerized storm analysis system.All of these—and more—helped to speed the repair andrestoration process this time. And going through this,the worst storm in our history, has taught us much thatwil l undoubtedly help us to do a better and faster job ofrestoring service in future storms. Also, many of ourcustomers have probably learned that it is wise to keepsupplies available for emergency use. Most of all, welearned that our customers are understanding andpatient beyond expectations, good neighbors to us andto each other, and the kind of people we are proudto serve.
What can you do to help?In addition to stocking up for emergencies, please con-tinue in the future to report to us any abnormalities inservice or appearance of any of our lines or othermaterials. By correcting these during non-emergencyperiods, we can often avoid damage during emergencies.
How much is the repair workcosting and who will pay?It will be several months before the full extent ofdamage is known in terms of cost—partly because therepair work to our system will continue long after allhomes and businesses are back in service. But the figurewill probably exceed $10 million—a magnitude of riskthat insurance companies have declined to cover com-pletely in recent years. Consequently it appears thatabout $1 million will be covered by insurance. Most ofthe remainder is included as an operating expense byDetroit Edison and will be considered by the PublicService Commission—along with all other valid businessexpenses—in setting rates in the future.
Can it happen again?That's a frightening question to consider, particularlyat a time like this, but just as it happened this month itcan happen again. If it does, all of us will be even betterprepared to deal with it. In the meantime, we at DetroitEdison will continue to make every effort to provide,reliably and safely, needed electric energy to enhancethe lives of the people of Southeastern Michigan.

Provincial House
loses NLRB rulingProvincial House of Cass
City has been ordered tobargain wi th the U t i l i t yWorkers Union of America,AFL-CIO, following a rul ingby the National Labor Rela-tions Board last week inWashington.
The NLRB ru l ing , issuedMarch 8, gives ProvincialHouse 20 days to comply.
In a charge filed last No-vember, the U t i l i t y Workersc la imed P r o v i n c i a l Housefai led to recognize the unionas sole bargaining agent forfacility employees.
Employees okayed unionrepresentation in an electionheld March 7, 1975, by a 52-17margin.
In its motion, the. unionclaimed that following certi-fication of the election lastOctober, Provincial Houserefused to bargain collect-ively.
P r o v i n c i a l House hadclaimed the union electionshould be declared inval id. Itcharged the union with "lastminute misrepresentations",the presence of a NLRB agentconducting an unfa i r laborpractice probe at a unioncampa ign mee t ing threeweeks before the election,threats and prounion cam-paigning by supervisors.
In its written decision, amajority of NLRB memberssaid Provincial House failedto provide proof to back up itscharges and ruled in favor ofthe union.
The union represents allf u l l - t i m e and par t - t imenurses aides, cooks, dietaryaides, janitors, laundry aides,physical therapists aides, andhousekeepers at ProvincialHouse.
The NLRB decision ordersProvincial House to bargaincollectively and to "cease. . .interfering with, restrainingor coercing employees in theexercise of the rights guaran-ted them."
NLRB cha i rman BettySouthard Murphy dissentedfrom the boards decision.
In her written opinion, shesaid she favored a new elec-tion "because the board'sneutrality in the first election
was seriously impaired by theUnion ' s holding an electioncampaign meeting in thesame place and at the sametime a board agent wasconducting an investigationof u n f a i r l abor prac t icecharges f i led by the unionagainst the employer."
Cass City Provincial Houseoff ic ia ls refused comment onthe decision. Executives ofthe f i r m in Lansing alsodeclined comment on theruling.

Your neighbor says
Let's limitcampaigning
Sometimes, it seems asthough the current Presiden-tial campaign began when thelast one ended. It's becometradition for candidates toannounce long before voterstrudge to the polls in the firstprimary election.
Mrs. Richard Briscoe ofCass City thinks campaigningtakes entirely too long.
"I th ink there should be alegal l imi t to it," she says. "Idefini tely think the time forcampaigning should be short-ened. It's a waste of time andmoney."
She says she fears thatoff ice holders who campaignmay be neglect ing theirelected responsibilities.
"I th ink about one monthwould be a good length ofcampaign time," she said."After all , what can you sayin six months that you can'tsay in one?"
She says pr imary electionsaren't the best answer to thenominating process but thatthey've become part of the
American scene.Mrs. Briscoe and her hus-
band came to Cass City lastsummer from Ann Arbor. Sheworks part-time as a legalsecretary. Her husbandserves as administrator ofHarbor Beach and Decker-ville hospitals. They have twochildren.

Freshman college—depression-era chance to learnBy Jim Kelt-hum
The year was 1934. Money,jobs and chances for aneducation were all scarce.Unless you had wealthy par-ents or won a scholarship,education often ground to ahalt after high school.
One of the federal NewDeal measures to combat theproblem came in the form of aFreshman College that pro-vided first-year courses for 41students during the 1934-35school year in Cass City.
The college, one of severaloperated throughout thestate, was supervised throughseven colleges, including theUniversity of Michigan, Mich-igan State College (now Uni-versity), Wayne State andfour "normal" colleges.
It occupied four rooms onthe third floor of what is nowthe Intermediate School.
The students, and instruc-tors, who were a part of theexperiment in Depression-eraeducation, generally agree itwas worthwhile,
"We loved it," Mrs. RuthEsau, one of the students,recalled. "It gave us a chanceto go to school and in theprocess we enjoyed ourselves
doing it. It was a greatexperience."
The college burst on thescene wi thout much warningAccording to accounts in theChronicle published duringSeptember, 1934, the schoolwas scheduled to open itsdoors Oct. ii, if at least 40students signed up.
The project was the bra in-child of the Federal Emerg-ency Relief Admin i s t ra t ion(FERA >, one of the "alphabetagencies" that grew out ofFrankl in D. Roosevelt's NewDeal legislat ion.
FERA agreed to pay teach-er s a l a r i e s . The schoolcharged no t u i t i o n . A total of41 students made up theroster when classes began.
Four teachers wore hired.They included Gladys Davis,Everett Ilaynes, Miss LucyWadswor th and A l l i s o nGreen.
It's unknown what hap-pened to I laynes . Green wenton to become a state repre-sen ta t ive from Kingston andtoday serves as State Treas-urer. Miss Davis is a retiredGenesee county teacher andMiss Wadsworth even tua l l ybecame Mrs. M.B. Au tcn .
Mrs. Aulen remembered
she got her teaching job at thecollege because her sisteralready was a teacher in PortHuron. At that t ime, schoolsystems wouldn' t hire twomembers of the same familybecause jobs were so scarce,she said.
"1 remember the first t imeI came up here, 1 thought Iwas coming in to the wi lder-ness," Mrs. An ten recalled."The road wasn't paved veryfar north of Marlet te and Ireally wasn't sure what 1 wasget t ing into."
Mrs. Autcn taught French,English and public speaking.Other courses offered in-c luded p o l i t i c a l science,mathemat ic s , geology, his-tory and Spanish.
H A R D T1MKS
Green reca l led he hadmade appl ica t ion to Cass CityHigh School for a teaching jobbut said he knew his chancesbered. "For one job opening,a school board would have (>()or 7(1 applications. I remem-b e r t h e s u p e r i n t e n d e n twanted me to keep in touchbecause there was a chanceth i s f reshman college wouldbe coming."
Af te r landing the job, Green
and his sister rented the thirdstory of a brick house acrossfrom the high school. Herecalled he earned about $80 amonth as an instructor.
He said he taught Englishand history related courses atthe college and that general-ly, the year went well.
"It provided us experi-ence," Green said. "If ithadn't been for the freshmancollege, a number of thosestudents wouldn't have beenable to continue their educa-tion."
Green said he sti l l supportsthe idea of a communitycollege in the Thumb andthinks it could succeed.
The school, which operatedfour hours a clay four clays aweek, even had its own bas-ketbal l team. Bernard Ross, astudent and now owner ofCass City's Federated Store,remembered the team playedan inspired game.
"We played anybody wecould f ind," Ross said. "Weplayed a pick-up team fromSnover and we played thea lumni once. We had a lot off u n . "
Another student, Miss Lil-l i an Dunlap, now principal atMcComb Elementary Schoolin Caro, a Shabbona areana t ive , agreed her year at thecollege was a good one.
"We felt as though we wereaccomplishing something,"she remembered. "I th ink thewhole idea of just beingtogether was good. We werethere for the same reason."
Freshman college studentsdidn' t generally mix withhigh school students, whoinhabi ted the rest of thebuilding, Mrs. Esau recalled.Some freshman students hadbeen out of school up to threeyears and didn't have con-
tacts w i t h publ ic schoolpupils.
CREDITS USEFUL
Two former students agreethe credits they earned at theFreshman College proveduseful later on. John Mar-s h a l l , Cass C i t y , TuscolaCounty's Register of Deeds,said he made use of hiscredits when he transferredto Ferris State College.
"Back in '34, there justweren't any jobs available,"Marshall recalled. "I couldstay at home and gain educa-tion with the potential oftransferring later on. It wasd e f i n i t e l y w o r t h w h i l e f o rme."
Marshall said the wholeyear was interesting for h im,especially a class play inwhich he played a role.
Another student, Asel Col-lins, publisher of the Pigeon-Progress-Advance, said hiscredits helped him when he
applied for Officer CandidateSchool in the Army.
"I remember I travelledabout 10 miles to the school,"he said. "I drove my broth-er's car and I transportedstudents to high school andthe Freshman College. Thathelped me meet expenses t h a tyear."
Collins said he enjoyed thechallenge of the math coursesand had hopes of con t inu inghis college education, butwork came first and a stringof jobs eventual ly led to theProgress-Advance.
Collins said he would like tosee a tri-county communi tycollege millage brought upagain. He th inks the idea s t i l lholds meri t .
TRIP
When the school year endedin June, the class pooled wha tlittle money it could musterand took a t r ip to Sault Ste.
Marie. Class members say itwas the highlight of the year.
"You were only supposed tohave four people in a cabin,"Miss Dunlap recalled, "butmoney was so t ight that weonly rented two-thirds of thecabins we needed and thensneaked the rest of the peoplein when no one was looking."
Mrs. Esau recalled duringthe t r ip someone pulled outtent stakes at 2:00 a.m. andmany campers wound up cov-ered with canvas.
Af te r the t r ip , they learnedthe college was dead. Con-gress had failed to fund theprogram for another year,c i t i n g a lack of demand.About ha l f of the FreshmanCollege class of 1935 went onto get degrees.
Miss Dunlap won a scholar-ship to the Universi ty of Mich-igan for her scholastic record.She said expenses eventual lyforced her to transfer toEastern Michigan Univers i ty .
Students of the college in-cluded Luella Walker,, HelenHelmar , Frank Bullock,Freda Parker, Kenneth Hen-nessey, Bernard Ross, Mil-dred Schwegler, CatherineMcTavish, Irene Russell,Florence Opperman, IreneMcConnell and Frances Seed
Other members were Ar-wil la Wilson, Francis Stew-ar t , Romney Horner, PhyllisBarnes, J u a n i t a Barnes,Cha r lo t t e Warner , RuthSchenck, Bess Green, Vir-ginia Rawson, Lela Farson,Lucile Bayley, Hazel Bul-grien and Don Kosanke.

Continued from page oneordinance as passed is en-forceable and that it wouldapply to Bennett. He saidcouncil had three choices. Itcould pass an ordinance, seeka warrant for the arrest ofany topless dancers on a mis-demeanor charge or it couldask the state Liquor ControlCommission not to renewBennett's license which ex-pires in April.
Some counc i lman saidwhen Bennett applied for thepermit, it was for "costumeddancing". They said Bennettdid not tell them he planned tointroduce topless dancing.
Ms. Goff said the dancersare costumed and that theyf u l f i l l the requirements of thestate license.
Counci lman Koch andHarry King abstained fromvoting.
Koch said he was concernedthat all sides have an equalopportunity to be heard.
Contacted in the kitchen ofhis establishment followingthe meeting, Bennett declinedspecific comment on council'saction, but indicated he in-tended to f ight a ha l t to thedancing. He said Emmetpassed an ordinance banningthe dancing but that theSupreme Court says it's okay.

Howard said the need for ahospital-based clinic has beendemonstrated by the demandplaced on the existing emer-gency room. He said crowdedconditions in the hallwaysnear the emergency room andthe increasing number ofpatients using it led to plan-ning the clinic.
He said the number of out-patients treated at the hos-pital has doubled in the pastyear.
An advantage of a clinicwill be reduced costs to
patients, he said. Minor sur-gery can be performed in themorning and a patient can behome that night.
Diagnostic tests could beperformed in the clinic on anoutpatient basis instead oftaking up bed space in thehospital, Howard said.
The clinic wil l allow thehospital to offer specializedservices on different days ofthe week. Separate surgery,pedia t r ic and or thoped icclinics could be scheduled, hesaid.
NEED FOK DOCTORS
The clinic will also pressthe need for more family-typephysicians in the Cass Cityarea. Howard said talks areunderway w i t h M i c h i g a n
State U n i v e r s i t y ' s FamilyPractice Center in an effort toprovide doctors.
He said the goal is toprovide 24-hour phys ic i ancoverage, working in threeshifts.
"A lot of it will depend onthe demand," he said. "Theprogram will grow as thedemand grows."
Howard said the c l i n i ccould also be used as ateaching tool for hospitalstaff .
"One thing we want tomake very clear is that wewill not be adding one bed tothe hospital," Howard said."In fact, by the time therenovation is complete, wemay lose one or two beds."
Presently, the hospital isset up for G5 beds. He said
some areas, part icularly inHuron county, have beenclassed as "over-bedded" byhealth planning agencies. Sofar, that 's not the case inTuscola or Sanilac counties,he said.
He emphasized that theclinic won't duplicate anymedical services being of-fered at any of Cass City'sdoctor clinics or at areahospitals. The clinic's loca-tion should draw patientsfrom all three counties andhelp to u t i l i ze the hospitalbetter, he said.
Howard said much plan-n ing s t i l l r ema ins beforeclinic construction begins.
Financing wil l be handledthrough pr ivate lending ins t i -tutions and federal grantmoney, Howard said.

A house and mobile homeowned by Mr. and Mrs.James Hickey of CanboroRoad, Bad Axe, were de-stroyed by a fire of undeter-mined origin Monday night.Loss was set at $21,000.
Bad Axe Fire Chief PeterNey said the blaze started in amobile home in which thecouple were living and spreadrapidly to a nearby two-storyfarm house located near theintersection of M-53 and Can-boro Road.
Ney said the couple wereunable to summon firemenfor about 20 minutes becausethe fire cut telephone linesleading to the trailer. He saidthey had to drive a mile and ahalf to a neighbor's home tofind a working telephone.
By the time firemen ar-rived at the scene, the trailerwas engulfed in flames andthe house had started to burn.The Bad Axe departmenttried to save the house, Neysaid, but gave up when theroof began to sag.
A nearby barn and shedwere not damaged.
Firemen were called to thescene at about 7:45 p.m.Departments from Cass City,Owendale, Ubly and Elktonalso helped fight the blaze.The Elkland township depart-ment responded at about 8:45p.m., sending a water tanker.

Job hunting won't be easy for June grads USE WANT ADSBy Jim Ketchuni
If you're a woman, memberof a racial minority and aregraduating with an engineer-ing degree, you can commandthe salary of a white malewith 10 years experience,according to Cass City HighSchool guidance counselorsCurtis Cleland and WayneDillon.
If you're not, chances aregood you face a rough timefinding that first job.
That's the word going out tohigh school seniors planningtheir futures. Overall, grad-uates can look for at least a 16per cent drop in the number ofjobs a v a i l a b l e , comparedwith just two years ago,according to recent U.S. De-partment of Labor statistics.
"We tell them the jobmarket is tough, but that ifthey're good and if they knowsomebody, they'll get hired,"Dillon said. "It's not the wayit should be but it's the way itis."
The counselors say a ma-jority of graduating seniorsindicate they plan on eithertwo-year or four-year collegeprograms after high schoolgraduation.
"Of this year's seniors, (ilper cent say they plan to goon," Cleland said. "In fact ,the number who indicate theyare looking at a four-yearprogram is up a l i t t l e bit fromprevious years."
One reason is that f inanc ia laid , in the form of scholar-ships, is a l i t t le easier to get,Cleland explained.
"Normally, i nd iv idua l fed-eral grants run from $1,000 to$1,200," Cleland said. "Thisyear, they're going as high as$1,800. Part of the reason isbecause i t ' s an e lec t ionyear."
Kenward
completes
training
Cleland fears some needystudents may be forced todrop out after their freshmanyear when funds start dryingup again.
Both Cleland and Dillonagree it's no way to run ahigher education program.
JOBS AUK AVAILABLE
In spite of the bleak generaljob outlook, some openingsexist. Most of these are inhealth-related occupations,special education instruction,engineering and in the petro-leum industry .
"The good students will getthe jobs," Dillon said. "But ifyou're not in the upper part ofyour class, your chances area lot less. What's needed areskills."
What 's also needed is awill ingness lo relocate, Cle-land said. If you're wil l ing totravel, your chances of f ind-ing a job wi l l improve.
"We have a large numberof people tel l us they want tobecome conse rva t ion of-f icers ," he sa id . "Yourchances of getting a conser-vation job in Michigan areabout one in a thousand. Butin Arizona and New Mexico,there are conservation jobsavailable."
Cleland said most studentssay they are wi l l ing to leaveCass City to f ind a job, butthat many have hopes ofeventual ly f i nd ing a job andset t l ing in a town like CassCity someday.
But even relocation won'thelp f ind some jobs. Dillonsaid journal ism, for instance,is awash with graduates look-ing for jobs. Me said thatbetween 8,000 and 9,000 journ-alism grads arc scramblingfor about 2,00(1 jobs.
"After Watergate, every-body wanted to be the greatA m e r i c a n w r i t e r , " Di l lonsaid.
MILITARY SERVICE
Attitudes toward militaryservice have done an about-face in the last three or fouryears, the counselors said.With jobs and money bothtight, a hitch in the Army,Navy, Air Force or Marineslooks a lot better than it didwhen the guns f inal ly stoppedfir ing in Vietnam.
"We make the recruiterswelcome here," Dillon said."Some schools still don't likethe mili tary. I rememberabout four years ago, onerecruiter I know in Flint saidhe'd always call ahead tohave an escort meet him atthe door so he could walk thehalls. Today, recruiting iseasy,"
Dillon said service is moreappealing to both boys andgirls because it offers train-ing, pay, benefits, securityand a chance to see the world.
"We have graduates in theservice who come back to seetheir friends and they wearthe uniform to school," Dillonsaid. "They're proud of it.There's no hostility to it.Vietnam has been forgotten."
Dillon said some seniorssign up six months ahead oftime. One student who hasn'tbegun his hitch yet has al-ready been promoted to pri-vate first class for recruitingthree of his friends. His tourof duty won't begin unt i l thissummer.
Dillon said employers wantskills. Since passage of Mich-igan's new auto mechaniclicensing law that says me-chanics must be licensed by1978, a certificate could meana ticket to a good paying job.
Still, he said, not manywant to go after a license.
SALARIES

The Village President ques-tioned Smith's talking to re-porters. Why? Does not anAmerican yet have the rightto tell the people whom heserves what is going on in hispolice department?
It is time that all union-minded people in this citystand behind this man Smith.Stand up, and let your citycouncil know who they shouldrepresent! Let them knowwho the boss is. The BOSS arethe people of Cass City! Forcethese men to discontinue hold-ing secret, behind closeddoors meetings!
In our bicentennial year, itis time that we stand likeAmerican men and women,and tell these elected non-representatives that we want,and have the right to know,what is going on! Men likeTom Jefferson, John Adams,John Hancock, Ben Franklin,etc., meant it to be this way.
This fired police officer isentitled to an open to thepublic, and press hearing! Ifwe allow these secret meet-ings to continue, we will beforever ignorant as to whatour government is doing, andwho is getting away withwhat!

graduates range from $9,000to $12,000, depending on theprofession.
"A kid in a factory canmake as much," Cleland said,"but those jobs just aren'topen."
Who's the largest employerin Michigan? Try govern-ment.
Dillon said that accordingto recent statistics, 15 percent of all employees in
Michigan work for the gov-ernment. That's five per centmore than work for the entireauto industry.
Figures show 567,600 gov-ernment employees in thestate, including 54,700 federalworkers, 131,400 state em-ployees and 381,500 local gov-ernment workers. The lastcategory includes teachers,while postal workers, forinstance, are included on the
federal payroll.Cleland said in spite of
these figures, more seniorsare interested in a job outsidegovernment.
He added that whenever thestudent begins job hun t ing , itwon't be easy.
"The job market is toughright now," he said. "Going tocollege puts it off either twoor four vears."
DALLAS ENGLEIIART ( l e f t ) Cass City High School senior,discusses his future with guidance counselor Wayne Dillon.Englehart has opted for a hitch in the Marines. Military servicehas become more popular since the end of the Vietnam war, Dillonsays. A tight job market has helped recruiters as well, he added.
We use less and
still pay moreMarch 11,1970
Dear John,I read in your Rabbi t
Tracks where you feel theBlue-Cross Insurance needslo be revamped. Your solu-tion was to get the subscriberto use the least amount of hisinsurance possible and thusmaybe the raise ra teswouldn't be 30 per cent plus. Ihave the feeling that if we useless, they wil l still say theyneed more because peoplearen't using the hospitals, ordoctors, and they would jus t i -fy their increase anyway!This seems to be the trendtoday. For instance:
1. Our village governmentsaid one of the reasons theyneeded to raise the water andsewer rates, was becausepeople weren't using as muchwater!
2. The postal system raisedthe price of postage but nowthey are crying again becausepeople aren ' t m a i l i n g asmuch as before and they arestill going in the red. Wil lthree day a week deliveryreally help?
3. Last year people cut backon their electricity and fuelcost to help the energycrunch, and what happened?They had to raise the ratesand again one of the reasonswas because the people didwith less. People are stil lcutting back and costs arestill going up.
Everywhere you look, yousee the more the citizen cutsback, the more he pays for it.His yearly raise in salary justcan't keep pace with thecosts.
In your same issue it sayscirculation at the l ibrary is atan all time high. It figures,who can afford to buy maga-
zines, dai ly newspapers, andpaperback books? This issomething the publ ic doesn'thave to have. The more thesecompanies raise their prices,

the fewer wi l l be purchased.Mr. Citizen lias given up thisluxury to pay u t i l i t y costswhich he really needs.
The only turn around I haveseen so far is the HerseyCandy Co. They raised theprice so high and cut back thesize of their bar so much thatonce again the buying publicsaid "who needs it"? (Theprice of sugar was the excusefor the candy companies).Now their sales are down andHersey is giving big publ ic i tyto the fact that they areadding ounces back to eachbar depending upon the costof the bar. They got themessage that they needed thepublic more than the pulbicneeded them. Perhaps yourreaders can come up withothers.

for state volleyball title
CHAMPIONS! The Cass City High School Girls' Volleyball team proudly displays thetrophies they won in regional play Saturday at Cass City.
Shown are (front row, from the left) Nora Langmaid, Chris Krueger, Coleen Leslie, CoachBrenda Breidinger, Bunny Hill, Luann Gallaway and Deb McFarland.
Back row: Patty Torriglia, Dianna Smith, Melanie Kelley, Beth Erla, Lisa Zimba, MaxineSmith, Judy Luana and Assistant Coach Diana Williams. (Photo by Bob Gengler).
The Perils of Pauline, thatclassic cliffhanger of the oldmovies, has a modern count-erpart. It is the Cass CityHigh School Volleyball team.
The squad of Coach BrendaBre id inge r twice seemedheaded for almost certaindefeat only to snatch outvictory at the last possiblemoment at Cass City HighSchool gym Saturday.
The girls did it not once, buttwice, on their way to theState finals Saturday at DeltaCollege.
It's hard to believe, but theteam that only won as manyas it lost in the regular seasonand has never won a Thumb BConference t i t le in its three-year history now has a chanceto bring home the Class CState ti t le.
The team is just three winsaway from going all the way. . . and if you judge it by theseason's record you' l l have tosay that the girls will bedef in i te underdogs.
But that's nothing. The clubhas been the underdogs all theway. Through the prc-dis-tr ict , the district and now theregionals.
If you were wri t ing a storyabout the team, you'd neverhave an ending like the onethe girls came up with Satur-day. Who would believe it?
Here's what happened. Thegirls started out as expectedby losing an 11-15 game totough Mayvil le . It was nearlyall over for Cass City in thenext game, The H a w k strailed by a point as time ranout with the ball in the air.But the game continues unt i lthe ball is out of play . . . andCass City won the point , tiedthe match and went on to winin overtime. It was NoraLangmaid who whipped inthree aces in the rally thatenabled the Hawks to win.
The th i rd and decidingmatch'was nearly as exciting.The Hawks were pushed tothe wire before winning anarrow 15-13 decision and theright to meet Harbor Beach inthe semi-finals .
The Beachers proved to beeasy for Cass City and thegirls had little trouble win-ning in straight games. Thatmoved them to the finals . . .and that wasn't so easy.
Marvsville had showed its
class by winning two gamesto enter the finals. The Hawkstrailed by three points in thefirst game with about twominutes left and, you guessedit, rallied to tie the score andthen went on to win inovertime 13-11.
The situation was reversedin the second game. Marvs-ville went ahead early andCass City rallied to tie, but inthe overtime Marysville won,12-14.
That set the stage for thefabulous final game. Marys-ville charged in front at thebeginning of the match. Itwas 12-3 and then 14-7 with acouple of minutes lef t .
On the brink of disaster, theHawks rolled off nine straightpoints, the last point comingwith 11 seconds left, andwalked off with the champion-ship.
It wil l be a young team tha ttravels to Delta Saturdaywhere Cass City is slated tomeet Grand Rapids ForestHills at 1:30 p.m.
There are four seniors,eight juniors and two sopho-mores on the squad.
Five juniors and a senior
are on the starting team, butCoach Breidinger uses herstrong bench frequently with-out any loss in effectiveness.
The starters include juniorsBeth Erla, Mel Kelley, ChrisKrueger, Deb McFarland andLisa Zimba. They are joinedby senior Coleen Leslie.
To show the power of thebench, sophomore DianeSmith won the Marysvillegame with her serve whileSoph. Judy Luana is one of thebetter spikers on the team.
Ms. Breidinger also gets topperformances from junior Lu-Ann Gallaway and seniorsMaxine Smith, Vicki Van-diver and Bunny Hi l l . NoraLangmaid is a top server.
The coach points to powervolleybal l as the key to theteam's success. We set it upfor the spike and we serveoverhand, she explained.
While learning, it may havecost the squad a few games . .but to win in the tournamentspower volleyball is essential,the coach says.
The question now is: willthe power carry them to threemore wins and the State t i t le?
If it does, it wi l l be the firstever won by a Cass City team.
Saturday local fans wi l lhave the answer.
ON THEIR way to a victory in regional volleyball tournamentplay Saturday at Cass City, the Hawks weren't to be denied. Here,(from the left), Beth Erla, Coleen Leslie and Lisa Zimba convergefor a shot.

Most Cass City auto repairgarage owners think Michi-gan's new Motor Vehicle Re-pair Act should be recalledfor defective language. Somethink that when consumersfinal ly understand what theact does, they may startblowing a few gaskets.
Beginning Monday, March1, all garages had to beregistered with the State ofMichigan. Under terms of theact, each repair order total-ing over $20 must include awritten estimate before amechanic touches a bolt.
According to a randomsampling, Cass City garageowners say written estimatesare going to cost them morein t ime, paperwork andmoney-costs that will event-ually be passed on to thecustomer.
I "It's a bad law," AimeOuvry, owner of Ouvry Chev-
' rolet-Olds says. "It makes itharder for the honest busi-nessman to operate and givesthe thief garages loopholes."
Ouvry says the new law willforce garages to give higherwritten estimates in order toprotect themselves. If thefinal bill is higher than theestimate, under the law thecustomer is liable only for thequoted cost.
"How do you know howmuch it's going to cost torepair a transmission, forinstance, until you tear itdown?" Ouvry says. "Take ashady garage in the city.They'll quote you maybe $265to fix a transmission. They'llreplace your t ransmiss ionwith a rebuilt one, keep yoursand maybe spend $10 toreplace one part and pocketyour money."
Ouvry says small townssuch as Cass City don't needthe law because local dealer-ships are traditionally honest.
"When you know everybodyin a small town, you've got tobe honest or you don't stay inbusiness," he says.
Ouvry estimates the newlaw will rnst him between$100 and $300 a year inlicensing fees based on grossbusiness.
Ron Geiger, service man-ager at Auten Motor Sales,
says the law could add asmuch as five per cent to thecost of shop labor.
"What it wil l amount to iswriting up the order twice-once as an estimate and oncewhen it's done," Geiger said.
Geiger said customersoften aren't anxious to gothrough the procedure ofwaiting for an estimate andsigning it.
"In a small town, yourcustomers trust you," hesaid. "You've got to be on theball or you're sunk."
Most dealers indicated theydo not yet have the estimateforms mandated by the state.They say they have had toimprovise unt i l the formsarrive.
Geiger agreed that esti-mates will have to be highersimply to protect the shopfrom a hassle later on if acustomer is dissatisfied.
Bob Bader, owner of Vil-lage Service Center, says thelaw will make it harder tooperate an independent serv-ice station.
He said with the new law, adealer has less flexibil i ty inp r i c ing than before. Heagreed that estimates wouldhave to be higher for self-pro-tection.
He sees other problems aswell.
"Let's say you get anengine torn apart and you findout it's going to cost more tofix than the estimate," Badersaid. "If the customer doesn'tlike it , then you have to call amediator from Lansing tocome up and settle things.Now won't that be just dandyto have a car torn downwaiting for a mediator toshow up?"
Under the law, by Jan. 1,1978, at least one specialty ormaster mechanic must beemployed by a garage. Cer-tif ication includes a $10,000bond, Bader says.
"That's going to hurt , too,"he said. "It's an added costalong with everything else."
ALREADY COMPLYING
Lee Rabideau of RabideauMotor Sales said his dealer-ship has been offering esti-mates on work for years,
"We give our customers anidea of how much the jobshould run and once we getinto it, if it's going to costmore, we stop and talk withthe person before we go on,"Rabideau said.
"Sometimes we'll get a car
in for work and if we f ind it'sgoing to cost more than thecar's worth, we won't do thework," he said.
Rabideau said his mechan-ics have always returnedworn out parts to customerswho want to see them. Thenew law mandates that re-moved parts be returned tothe car owner when work iscompleted.
Rabideau says the law willprobably add $100 to hisannual operating costs.
"I can sec where a law l ikethis might be needed at someplaces in the city," he said."But I don't th ink it's neededhere. In the city, all thosegarages care about is getthose cars in and out. We havequite a few customers whocome up on Saturdays fromthe city just for repair workbecause they know i t ' l l bedone right. You have to dealfairly in a small town ifyou're going to keep yourbusiness going."
