.. 1 ____ '".''·'··'.e.dl .. ·t.o.r'.-s.'Dl.o."t.e'.' ______ 1"-I predict within the next couple of months that at least
a couple of gas stations in this area will be pumping gasohol. GaSohol. a mixture of 90 percent gasoline and 10 percent alcohol, has caught the fancy of the Midwest. One Oticago gasohol attendant says he hasri't sat down in days. The first Saturday he converted, he sold four times the amount of gas he usually seDs.
Strangely enough, gasohol is neither cheaper than regular gas, nor does it seem to get better mileage-.at least not according to the Fnvironmental Protection Agency's office in Ann Arbor.
But try to convince gasohol supporters of that fact. Customers everywhere say it gets better mileage and is much cleaner than conventional gas. In central Michigan, gas stations that have converted also seem to be sold on the product. Four Minnesota farmers are so convinced. that they are undertaking a $100 million project to mass produce alcohol for gasohol. Their plant, the largest of its kind. will produce 20 million gallons of 200-proof ethanol a year to be sold to gasohol producers.

Fmally got a chance to see "anna Syndrome," which played at the Oarkston Cinema last week. Its resenlblance to the incident at Three Mile Island is frightening. Its major theme as far as I was concerned was that no matter how sophisticated the equipment. human errors and emmons play a major part in the success of an operation.
In "The anna Syndrome" it was human error and then an attempt to cover up those erros that caused the disasterious conclusion. The script was nearly the same at Three Mile Island. '
I'm not ready to condemn nuclear energy. by the incident at Three Mile Island. However methods of dealing with that type of incident better be upgraded. Did you know that there was no real evacuation plan for residents near the power plant? And that it took three days for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to start monitoring radiation levels near the plant, SO that records of radiation exposure are spotty. at best. Most ill1p0rtantly. information about the incident was consistently contradictory··both the NRC and the power company attempted to dismiss the incident as minor,
I letters I To the Editor:
Since the resounding defeat of' the school millage proposal the school board will now reassess the situation and the direction to take in order to meet the needs of the school system.
Out of concern for what this community NEEDS, WANTS and WILL SUPPORT FINAN. CIALL Y I wish to urge all citizens to express their views to the Board of Education.
I feel information on the options considered before the vote and fmal recommendation to the board by the Citizens Advisory Committee will be of assistance in forming an individual opinion and preference on how to meet the problem of educating our children most effectively.
From a large group of volunteers, 32 members of the community were selected to be representa. tive of the citizens, some in areas of expertise, to function in enrollment (9), finance (8) and facilities (15) sections. Over half of the latter group were or had been actively engaged in teaching from var-ious school systems. ."
The enrollment section with the professional assistance of Stan Hecker of M.S. U. made available to the facilities section the enrollment projection which provided a base in the final assessment of space needs for state-mandated programs. Storage, media, administrative, sport and artistic needs were evaluated in addition to the classroom space. Site assessments were made and the facilities committee tallied all the deficits. Five major options were finally selected. These were presented to the fi~ance committee for a cost analysis. In a general session, after discussion of positive and negative aspects of each, a vote was taken. Option No.2 as listed below received the most votes.
Briefly, they were: B-Bond,O-Operation C.H.S. (the same in all five) enlarge media and renovate existing space to meet required needs - B. 385,000

.,BINOS It's curious that the very mothers who say they hate
summer because the kids are underfoot all day, are the
very ones to pass up suggestions on how to improve the
situation, but that's what grandmothers tell me is the
truth of the situation. "f) It is true that by the time we'{e adults we think we
should be able to handle roost things, but that is an
unhandy thought that lets us in for a lot of difficulty that
could be avoided! The truth is that the intelligent and
roost mature thing to do about any problem is to consult
the experts, add your thoughts, and the benefit of your
experience to theirs, and come up with the best from
both of you. It just so happens that grandmothers are the
.. experts when it comes to problems with kids.
I should explain that I do not mean that grandmothers
are perfect and are filled with guaranteed advice on how
to do things and have them come out perfectly. Some of
them are just normal everyday people like the rest of us.
What I do mean is that each generation picks up a lot of
information and advice and techniques. just living from
day to day, which we call experience--even though all it
'\V is is a list of what doesn' t work. (There's a lot to be
learned from trying and failing!)
Every generation resists the advice of the older
generation as it moves from childhood to adulthood.
That's good. Without that normal resistance to the
imposition of values, opinions, and attitudes, nothing
would change or improve. It's when the adults in society
get upset at youth for wanting to resist, and fail to
• understand and provide for such shows of energy, that
trouble brews. When it is understood as a normal part of
the growth and maturation process, it soon changes as
the young become the parenting generation. The
assumption of adult status--independence through
assuming total support of the self, brings situations and
circumstances that older generations have dealt with.
Then understanding between the middle generation and
• the older generation begins, and the middle generation
~----------~--------~--~-
I have discovered a secret to the problems between the generations. Everyone wants to be loved and needed. Everyone wants to be reminded that they are loved and needed. When people feel that they are loved and needed they relax, and they are cooperative. I am not a grandmother, but I love to give advice I
runs into the younger generation's resistance.
As a matter of act, the roore tolerant parents are about
the energy the kids expend in verbal resistance (that is,
complaining, rroaning and groaning about "what I've
gotta do" or "I can't do," the sooner the kids get tired of
saying it, and the sooner they're able to admit that
parental direction and/or supervision was a big help
after all. There's another point to consider, for people of all
generations, and that is that people who offer other
people help because they want to be helpful, are usually
appreciated. What's more, people come back to ask for
more help and advice, (whether they're kids or
grown-ups). It is very sad when parents use their power over little
children for their own benefit and to fulfill their own
needs, rather than in the child's best interests. The
children don't have to be very old before they recognize
that the parent or parents are selfish and insincere.
Then, since they generalize about parents and life at
home. they think that the rest of the world is the same as
their family. so to cope with it, that is. to be "safe" in it,
they have to be the same way. The story gets sadder when the children are older and
display what they have learned in their action and
attitudes toward their parents, who are also older, and
sometimes dependant on the children. Not liking your
kids because they are selfish and insincere is a miserable
situation when you've spent years of your life raising
them! But what if the parents don't realize they are being too
possessive of their kids because they "need" their
presence and attention? Well, that's when grand
mothers (and grandfathers) can be of help. They'll
usually tell you things like, "you need some time way
from the kids, and they need some time away from you,
so why don't you let us baby-sit while you have some
time to yourselfl"
roovie. In the winter, he skis with his buddies who don't
complain, don't nag, don't expect him to shovel the
sidewalk, but he does take his kids with him.
In the spring, he fishes with still another set of
friends. They don't complain, don't nag, don't expect
him to take out the garbage or rmw the lawn. After all,
the mayflies are hatching. In the swmner, comes the "real" escape from the
daily routine and rmre fishing, but this time not just one
little old weekend. Many days are possible and as many
as possible are prefened, each one deemed necessary to
his health and well-being. In the meantime, school is out and little league season
has begun. How does this \IWJI'~ mother cope with the
little sluggers and the vacationing father? Barely, but
bravely I Considering summer baseball can take some three
hours a day for each game and some mothers may spend
as many as four days a week at it, it's tough. Whatever
M>m's job may be, it takes a beating. Just ask her
employer. Aside from the beating her job takes, what happens to
mealtime? An afternoon ball game provides two
choices--before or after. The problem is compounded by
the fact the kids don't want to eat before and M>m's too
tired to cook after. By the' time summer is over, many mothers are
considering writing a Cookbook for little League
: M>thers, guaranteed to be an overnight success. In the
meantime, the kids \\WId haVe profitted nicely as

Believe me, that is not a joke. There are a lot of
parents who would give their eye-teeth for such an offer,
but there are an equal number who are afraid to let the
kids out of their sight. They are the ones who really have
a rough time in the summer because they have to worry
all day, instead of just while the kids are out of school for
a few hours a day. Their fear of "something happening"
keeps the kids imprisoned physically, mentally, and
emotionally, because it doesn't take long for them to
learn fear too_ Of course, it is true that a lot of grandparents don't
learn much in life, or don't remember, and they say.
"What! Another baby-sitter I You should stay home with
your children. They won't be little forever, you know!"
Sometimes they are right to remind parents of that, but
when you haven't been apart from the kids since last
August when they selpt out in the yard in a tent, I don't
think it is something to be concerned about.
I have discovered a secret to the problems between
the' generations. Everyone wants to be loved and
needed. Everyone wants to be reminded that they are
loved and needed. When people feel that they are loved
and needed they relax, and they are cooperative. 1 am
not a grandmother. but I love to give advice!
Here's what to say when you're not sure you are doing
something right. "Uh, I am having a little anxiety about
my opinion in this matter, and I wonder if you ever ran
into something similar." (That's how adults talk to each
other when they are going to "cooperate" on a matter.)
And, here's what to say when somebody offers help
that you don't need. "Thank you for being so helpful.
It's really great to get somebody else's opinion on
things. " How you say something to people who are younger or
people who are older than you makes a difference to
them--not what you say! Don't believe me? How about
giving it a try this summer--and while you're at it, try it
on people your own age too. It might just get to be a
habit!

WHAT IS "WIDOW'S W ALIt?" Old and historic homes built along the seacoasts
often have a fence-like railing on the roof which is
called a "widow's walk." This "widow's walk" provided a lookout for those
awaiting the retum of loved ones from the sea. In early
America, many families were dependent on the
shipping business for their livelihood. Many lives were
lost at sea. Many ships were to depart, never to retum
again. "Watching from the widow's walk" became a
common experience for countless wives and
sweethearts in the early history of our country.
The expression, "widow's walk," has been used to
entitle a booklet by Jane Woods Shoemaker. A widow
can receive comfort and. constructive ideas to help her
adjust to her new way of life by readin8 this warm and

HAS AREA BuzziNG Editor's Note:
Tbe following is a letter written by Maranatba Baptist Cburcb Pastor Philip Somers to Independence Townsbip and a rebuttal letter written by Joe Locriccbio, Pine Know owner.
. We are vitally concerned with the operation of the Pine Knob consortium, Within the interlocking relationships which characterize the operations of this group it is very difficult to fix responsibility for anything.
Since our experience has been that the representatives of Pine Knob will make oral commitments if pressed. but will make no written commitments whatever. we are interested in several unanswered questions growing out of more than seven years of development. in the light of the latest request for permission to build the hotel.
1. Was there ever any consultation with the DNR at the time of the Aemings Lake draw down? If not. why not?
2. Why is it necessary to grant every request from Pine Knob in order to increase their profits?
3. If permission is granted to build the proposed hotel. on what basis can any other developer be refused the same kind of liberty? Why must Independence Township become another Troy?
4. Why the emphasis upon broadening the tax base when this group openly prides itself on not paying its taxes? And why the most favorable climate which allows the complex to always be in arrears?
S. After seven years of refusal on the part of the township board to enact and enforce a meaningful sound ordinance to regulate the theater. what possible confidence can we have that the ski slope wound will not blast us all winter with announcements and music? We regularly get the announcements from the present system. Another 400 feet of height. and sound to compete with the Northern lodges?
6. What will be the impact upon the water table from the needs of 1500 guests and additional employees?
7. How many young people from the area will really

want to be bellhops or waitresses. and how many parents will want their young people exposed to a hotel type of operation?
8. In short. and how much longer will the township ask its residents to underwrite the Pine Knob operation? •
9. No matter what the management of Pine Knob does. is there anyone on the board who really thinks that Pine Knob can compete with Caberfae or Boyne Mountain. or any other Northern lodge?
At the time the present owners of Pine Knob bought the property they were surely aware of the restrictions. Yet. every time they want to expand they expect to be accommodated. Does the board really believe it was • elected to give away the property rights of the residents of Independence Township? Can we really say that there is respect for the rights of all concerned within the township? At what point will the board call a halt to the Pine Knob pressure?
We have tried to cooperate with the Pine Knob management. Agreements which were entered into orally have not been honored by the group, Last summer we tried three times in writing and once by phone to get up-ta-date schedules. for example. without avail.
Taxpayers are about to embark upon a massive restructuring of the I-7S-Sashabaw interchange. wholly brought about by the Pine Knob operation. The last widening of Sashabaw only wOrsened our position here

Sincerely. Philip W. Somers. Sr.
I would like to take the time to enlighten Mr. Somers and clarify some of his libvious mis-interpretations.
Mr. Somers' first question was: "Was there any consultation with the D.N.R. at the time of the F1emings Lake draw down?" _
Answer: Yes. In 1971 at the onset of the lake . ." restoration project the D.N.R. was contacted by our
independent engineering fiml. Nowak and Fraus Company. The D.N.R. visited the site to review our proposal to restore the lake to its natural state (F1eming Lake was a dying lake with almost all of the original npen water area then filled \\;th peat and root mass). The D.N.R. wa.·, fuJly aware of our plan to remove this peat and muck which was de-oxigt' nating our lake and cuasing

Next Mr. So~rs asked: "Why is it necessary to grant every request-from Pine Knob in order to inctease their profits?"
Answer: I am completely at a loss as to what request I. or Pirie Knob have ever made to the township board to in~ase the profits at Pine Knob, as a matter of fact we have never varied in' concept from our original Master Plan presented to the township board in 1970. and since that time Pine Knob has never requested a zoning variance other than the request for "high rise" now before the board.
The original Master Plan shown to the township board in 1970 had a hotel structure in the south-west corner of the Pine Knob property and was shown at that time to be a high-rise structure. This can be supported by photographs still on file in the township offices.
I myself nor anyone else affiliated with Pine' Knob has ever consulted the township regarding profits or losses from the operations of any of the Pine Knob amenities.
Mr. Somers asked: If pennission i~ granted to build the proposed hotel. on what basis can any other developer be refused the same kind of liberty? Why must Independence Township become another Troy?

~. IIany Wader reads her letter /rom Rep. William Broomfield, teUing of the flag's history.
SpEciAl FlAG TO Fly ON 4TII of July by Betty Good
When Mr. and Mrs. Harry Wacker "hoist the colors" on July 4th. it will be no ordinary flag that flies from the. pole in the backyard of their Waterford ToWnship home.
Their personal "Star-Spangled Banner" flew over the nation's Capitol on January I. 1976--the first day of the Bi-Centennial year.
Mrs. Wacker. whose various homes always had flagpoles. likes to give flags to relatives and friends. The one they are presently flying was a gift to her husband. Harry.
Mrs. Wacker noticed an article in the newspaper inviting constituents and others to write U.S. Representative WLiliam Broomfield (R-Michigan) for the flags during the Bi-Centennial celebration. Enclosing the proper amount to cover cost. she received her flag. along with a letter' explaining its history from Representative Broomfield.
The Wackers can enjoy the SttIrs IIIId Stripes blowing in the breeze whether they look out the back or the front windows of their home. A flag they gave neighbors, the Paul Rosses. flies from a flagpole across the street. Grace is quick to point out, however. that it exceeds the standard three foot by five foot size.
Neighbors note that Mrs. Wacker's communityminded efforts include welcoming newcomers. mowing lawns for vacationing neighbors. and retrieving runaway pets.

SAlt. YOU SAW IT IN THE REMINDER " .. THURSDAY JUNE,2t"1979. PAGE NtNE
One of Those Days It really seemed great to have all the kids back under
the family roof again. Only the youngest of the four had doubts about it all working out when his brother and two sisters all landed home for the summer. On the other
:~; hand, since it meant that there would be several cars around, he figured it might prove to work to his advantage.
It did work out too. since the older siblings all had jobs of sorts, and were up and out early in the morning, and he had nothing to do but a few chores, because one of the conditions of the others being at home was they they shared the work around the house.
'~ Anyway, it was great until 1 recent Sunday evening when dad happened to mention that he had arranged (at eldest daughter's request) to have some repairs done to her car the next day. so he would drop her off at work after she dropped her car off at the shop.
Then his wife reminded him that he was not going to the office the next day, but to a neighboring town to give a speech before a breakfast meeting. Daughter then
'i.t., said, "then you have to drive me mom," and mother said, "but, I can't, I have to pick up three women to take them to Lansing." Everybody turned to eldest brother who said, "not me, it's my tum for car pool and there isn't any room. We don't go that way anyway!" So that left second daughter, who didn't have to be at work until two hours later, but it just so happened that she had made a dental appointment at the· only time she could
t get in, which was the first thing in the morning, and it was an emergency of sorts so she couldn't cancel it.
By that time, eldest daughter was really upset because the lack of consideration and the lack of cooperation in the family "always got her down" and her voice was rising, and her mother was trying to calm her down when second daughter started insisting that her older sister "always gets so personal" and the men
f· of the house began making negative sounds about women getting upset over the least little thing, when suddenly younger brother finally manged to get someone to listen to him. He had been trying to get his sister's attention since so~ere in the middle of the uproar, and finally had to yell.

that was wrong with it was that you needed a new snuffle for the rourck, so I went to the hardware and got a snoovel and tightened t,he breek and it's good as new."

Conunission at a public hearing to recommend creating a new. zoning category with a minimum 2.5 acre lot size then apply that to a large area of the township which included the Kier Rd. project.
At the hearing the Conunission did recommend the new zoning category, but failed to gain a majority, 3-3 tie, to recommend to the Township Board that this new category be applied to the project and other areas.
This then cleared the way for the Conunission' s recommendation by 4-0 margin last Tuesday, of the proposed development, including the 1.5 acre lots.
The project, according to developer Karl Lundquist, will be identical in lot size to the adjoining development now there. .
"It will be adjoining Green Tree Fanns, so the people can drive through and get an idea of what this project will look like," said Lundquist.
Lundquist, 40, of 8999 Cooley lake Road, Union Lake, didn't feel the lot sizes were inadequate. "An acre and a half is not small for a family to live," he said.
He and developing partner Roger Roeser expect the development to be completed in the next two years. "There are Imre and more people and they need places to live," said Lundquist.
The Conunission's recommendations go to the Township Board July 5th for approval.

CliNTON RivER-:
by Carol Balzarini Inside the entrance to Independence Oaks, the largest
of Oakland County's parks, is a sign designating the headwaters of the Ointon River. Although it is not the actual point of origin, it is the most accessible.
The actua1 source is Upper Bushman Lake on private property but a narrow trail through the wetlands allows a closer view of the river's journey into the park.
With park naturalist Kathleen n,ugherty as a guide, a hike along the nearly Overgrown trliil is one of nature's delights. Ferns grow in abundance. A cinnamon fern gets its name from its brown spores. There's also a bead or sensitive fern.
Boots squishing softly in the black marsh mud blend with the sounds of wind, rustling leaves and birds. Our tracks are added to those of the deer found in the park. A redheaded woodpecker scurries up and down a dead tree looking for insects. A turkey buzzard circles overhead.
Beside the path a Canadian mayflower. or wild lily of the valley. gro'rs out of a dead tree stump. Further on a clump of shoWy;lady's slipper orchids blooms in pink and white splendor in its protected environment.
More of nature's delights are found in ripe wild strawberries glowing red in the grass. An odd rough plant called a" horsetail lines the path. Ixmgherty explains it's a species some two million years old, trce-sized at one time. now only a foot high.
The brush clears and before us is a small stream bisected by fallen logs and edged with arrowheads. cattails and pungent watercress. It is the Ointon River in its infant stage. clear. quiet. a breeding ground for damsel flies and dragon flies irredescent in the morning sun.
This is the river that winds its way through the park down into the Mill Pond in the Village of Oarkston. Fed by Parke Lake it continues on through to Greens Lake and out of the township. its ultimate destination Lake St. Oair. ; ~
This is t'e ,;iver that runs past the Drayton Plains Nature Cernef, o~ a fish hatchery. and on through Waterford Jownship where it provides water for both canoeing dd fishin~s-is tbe-river that continues on into the mo~ urban part of its course fit Oakland County. the aty ot:Pontiac.
This is the same river whose outlet into Lake St. Oair is at Mount Oemens. Here the Army Corps of Engineers has plans to spend $135 million tax dollars to create a concrete d\~ch to solve occasional flooding problems, a plan not vfewed as the only solution by many groups including the Ointon River Watershed Council formed in 19n toIlook out for the interests of communities located in the watershed.
But that';s the end of the line. Our concern for the moment is:With the headwaters, described by n,ugherty a., "uniqu~." Why ~qu~? .

Hidden by brush, the Ginton River flows out of Upper Bushman l.oke.
Ointon River in addition to being accessible to a large metropolitan area. '
Independence Oaks itself is some S80 acres but it is surrounded by many more acres of wetland, acres the county would like to acquire for the primary purpose of preservation "before it is overrun by development."
In November of 1m, the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission supplied the Michigan Land Trust Fund with pertinent data relating to the proposed acquisition of 308 acres south of the park's boundaries. The application stressed the importance of wetlands to the quality of the environment as well as its role in determining the quality and quantity of the water supply.
The application called attention to threats to land and

zoning saying. •• Although this area remains in an unspoiled condition. adjacent development has already been initiated. Intense residential subdividing is presently underway (in the area) .. .indicative of the tremendous growth that will occur during the next 10 to 15 years. The result will be the. loss of. ~e -original char~er of.t~e~~~ ~ue_ ~o the dredging ~:tffi1ling that will be required to support residential deVelopment."
The worst fears of the Commission were realized several weeks ago when a company sought approval from the Independence Township Planning Commission' for a gravel operation in that very same area sought by the Parks and Recreation Commission. Although the plan was denied. the matter may not necesSarily be considered over.

It seems "nostalgia" has always been with us. This poem, first published in 1944, shows a child's longing for pre-WWIl days.
JULy FOURTII What has become of the July Fourth
Grandma talk about .~!} When children got up at 6 a.m.
And were out in the street with a shout
They ran from house to house With firecrackers in every pocket
Playing until nightfall When they could set off a rocket.
f Now when July Fourth in the early morning comes around
The children are all asleep, in the town there's barely a sound
Four gunshells have taken the place of crackers and bullets the place of rockets
. Now there're dimes for War Stamps
. f:., jingling in the children's pockets.
CHILDREN
by Wortman Written in 1944
OUldren are precious, in all shapes and forms They all need a rainbow, to comfort the storms;
• They all have a heart, that cries in despair They all need to know, that somone does care.
It's not just your own, tucked so softly in bed That you've kissed good night, and rubbed on the head; What of the others, who lay all alone--Who'd give all the world, if they had a home .
• Today little Joey--who's all of age three Fell in the play yard, and skinned up his knee; It wasn't so bad, and he'll be alright But oh, for a mommy, to just hold him tight.
And Sarah, well, she'll be eleven real soon Her biggest dream is to have her own room;

Or Bernie who's fourteen, with acme so bad Oh God, how his heart aches, to just have a dad; Or Jim-he's so clumsy, and Grace cries too much And Mary's too fat--too homely to touch.
Tony spells trouble, you can tell with one glance And Donna, she's hopeless, why give her a chance; Kelly has nightmares, John wets the bed Stevie, at his age, don't talk it's been said.
The children are countless who cry out of sight Who long for a mother to kiss them good night; Who have needs inside them, that they cannot share Because there's no mother or father to care.
Yes, children are precious in all shapes and forms They all need a rainbow to. comfort the storms; They all have a heart, that cries in despair Oh God! for the children--Iet someone be there.

" ·>PiNE KNOb HOTEl. Answer: I cannot' aDSWeF this question e~cept to say .
that if another developer presents a plan that has merit and will effectively help the conununity as ~ whole (as I'm sure this proposed hotel will), then that developer should be given proper consideration in spite of criticism from a few uninformed dissidents.
Mr. Somers asked: Why the emphasis upon broadening the tax base when this group openly prides itself on not paying its taxes? And why the most favorable climate which allows the complex to always be in arrears?
Answer: Mr. Somer.i is evidently not infonned about tax payments nor burdened with taxes as I'm sure his church is tax-exempt. If in fact he were a tax-payer he would realize the necesssity of amenities such as this proposed hotel to absorb the burden of school taxes and minicipal services.
As to the question of Pine Knob not paying its taxes this again is a totally erroneous statement. True Pine Knob has been late in pavin~ certain tax assessments,

"I myself am alwayl ID mlDd of PIne bob's :~~~., to tblaeommunlty ••• and because of ·tbis..uDd •. haye· .... "·. ~P',. quality ltaudard
but late or not the taxes have always been paid and for the penalty of paying our taxes late Pine Knob has paid dearly (some 90;0 per annum with penalty charges).
To further clarify this point, as every tax-payer should know, taxes must be paid or properties are ultimately sold for satisfaction taxes, so that in any event the Governmental agencies always receive their dollars.
Pine Knob and its facilities have paid in excess of $1,000,000 in property taxes and personal property taxes since 1974 and as far as Pine Knob owing taxes, it will always be in tax debt as is everyone who is not exempt as is Mr. Somers.
Mr. Somers asked: After seven years of refusal on the part of the township board to enact and enforce a meaningful sound ordinance to regulate the theater, what possible confidence can we have that the ski slope sound will not blast us all winter with announcements and music? We regularly get the announcements from the present system. Another 400 feet of height, and sound to compete with the northern lodges?
Answer: The only reason the township board has not enacted an ordinance to regulate the operation of the theater, is that we have always accommodated the township in their request for changes and rapport has existed between Pine Knob and the various Township boards since the inception of the Music Theatre. IMMEDIATE C.E.T.A.

Wdlillm H. Sommers; 86. died June 22. of Springfield Township, where he was born. Survived by wife Sarah; 4 children. Mrs. Olet (Hazel) Beauregard. Oarkston, Aoyd H. Sommers of Oarkston. Mrs. Alvin (Iva May) Caverly of Oarkston and Glen D. Sommers of Davisburg; 13 grandchildren; 6 great grandchildren. Funeral from Goyette's. N. Main. Tuesday. 1:00 p.m. June 26. George Davis officiating. Interment at Andersonville. Mr. Sommers was a retired water well driller in this area for over 50 years.
Mr. Somers asked: What will be the impact upon the water table from the needs of 1500 guests and additional employees?
Answer? Water tables are more simply defined as layers of porous strata (sand, gravel) between layers of more impervious strata, which support water.
Many of these "water tables" can exist before reaching bed-rock or a totally impervious strata.
The state of Michigan must agree that water volumes are great enough in a water table to accommodate a development of this nature, otherwise another strata or "water table" must be reached.
We are fortunate in North Oakland County to have an abundance of fresh water, and we win comply with all state requirements before extracting that water for the needs of the proposed development.
Mr, Somers asked: How many young people from the area win really want to be bel\hops or waitresses, and how many parents win want their young people exposed to a hotel t)pe of operation?

Clarkston plans to celebrate their 4th of July with a parade. The fire department, which is sponsoring the parade, is asking for all types of marching units, bands, floats and subdivision participation to really make this parade the biggest and best ever.
The Reminder
Since the fire department is sponsoring the event, spectators can count on seeing quite a few pieces of fire-fighting equipment in the parade.
Three prizes will be awarded to participants in the parade, but a 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize won't be offered. The prizes will be for (tentatively) Best Float, Most Patriotic and Best Kids' Float. According to a fire department employee, the group winning the prize doesn't necessarily have to be a float, but "if a band or something is really good, we may award them the prize. "
The parade route is from the Junior High School on Church Street, to Main Street, down Main Street to Clarkston and Miller Roads where the parade will disperse.

Holly RECREATioN AREA KEEPS ON IMPROviNG YEAR'AfrER YEAR
by Leona Hutchings The Holly Recreation Area covers 7,371 acres in
Groveland and Holly Townships. Part of this area has been used by public since 1943 but it was 1948 before it was officially opened to the public. During the first twenty years many changes were made to encourage Oakland County people to enjoy recreation close to home.
Park Manager Robert 80s has been with the Dept. of Natural Resourses at several parks. He was at Hadley Recreation (Big Fish Lake) several years before coming to Holly. There are 6 employees during the winter but at the peak of the busy season in June on thru the summer there are 29 employees.
It is a busy place for campers, swimmers and hikers. It is an area which can expand and grow. At present a new campground which will have 150 campsites is undreway. The main roads are in, and blueprints have been made. It is located in a wooded part of the recreation area. Many of the trees are a hundred or more feet tall.

means is this: the borrower is required to make a fixed periodic payment. usually monthly. The payments include interest (and in some instances, taxes and insurance), as well as reduction of the principle of the mortgage debt after each payment. During the early years of repayment. a large share of each payment is for interest. As the borrower kecps paying. however. a smaller share bf each payment is for interest and a larger share is available for repayment of capital.
The price of real estate that you can afford will vary depending on many factors. If the property is older. the taxes may well be less thus allowing you to expend more on mortgage and interest. If the property is income producing these monies will affect your cash situation and will alter the price range you can afford to pay. At BOB WHITE REAL ESTATE, 58S6 S.
