T h r e e W e s t l a n d City Council running m a t e s have each spent more on
their 1999 campaigns t h a n the elected
position pays for an entire year.
Novice council c a n d i d a t e David

third, respectively, in spending.
Griffin has plunked down $13,153;

$12,592 they would receive even if chosen council president.
The trio has spent thousands more
than their election rivals after receiving contributions from city administration officials, political committees, contractors, developers, business people
and others.
"Having t h e financial resources to
get your, message out, I would say. is
extremely important," Cox said Monday. "Westland is a bedroom community, and our housing turns over. There's
a significant n u m b e r of new p«upU
from one election to the next."
Griffin conceded t h a t his spending
exceeds what he would typically spend
on a council race.
"It's a very t o u g h r a c e , " he s a i d ,
"You've got a lot of good candidates,"
Spending differences
The new spending totalis come from

trombone. He loves to listen to
classical music.
Wayne-Memorial is Wendt's
second teaching assignment. He

through fifth grade in the Lans*
ing School District,
"I'm here to improve our musicianship and for the students to
experience new genres of music,"
said Wendt, 25.
For instance, this holiday season the program will include a
Jamaican folk song and Russian
Christmas carols interspersed
with American carols.
"They'll be exposed to different
types of music that they proba*
bly wouldn't experience anywhere else in any other academic
class," said Wendt, adding that
students a r e also offered a
chance to create and compose
their own music.
Students' goals, standards and
expectations are higher and will
continue to expand, Wendt said.
"I'm getting a positive response
from all the students in terms of
changing philosophies and
understanding why they have to
do better on their instrument.
They have worked on becoming
musicians and worked on playing their mstnxmentu well. Students are receptive to change
They've grown in just six weeks."
Wendt knows firsthand how
impressionable the students ore.
He was the age of his students
no-w-when he-became intrigued
with making music He started
playing music in his senior year
of high school in his hometown,
Deckerville, He went on to
Michigan State University for 5 •
years.
Wendt said he hopes to teach
his students that they have to he

dependent on each other to play
as a group and to play the music
the way it's supposed to be
played," Wendt said. "That's
very hard to do when there's a
lot of people in one group."
When he isn't making music or
teaching others how, Wendt said
he loves to play basketball and
soccer and to watch football He
also feels compelled to be politically active in order to promote
his philosophies of fairness in
society.

"I don't think it has enhanced
public education," said Straus. "I
can't make sense of this - removing assessment from Education
to Treasury. It's beyond me, I'm
terribly dismayed and d i s tressed."
Board member Herb Mover. DTemperance, asked Superintendent of Public Instruction Art
Ellis. ""To what degree did t h e
governor consult you. and what
advice did you give?''

I won't reveal niv discussions

advised in evaluating political

make sure first there is a real
surplus"
It's important to be sure any
such plan would pose no undue
hardship on anyone, she added.
Rivers described herself a s
unhappy with the poUticization
of the budget issue.
"Too much of defense money is
spent as job programs for certain
states," the congresswoman said.
She cited as an example the F22
plane, with questionable military merit, having been built in
former House Speaker Newt
Gingrich's Georgia district.
That was likely to change after
Gingrich left, she said, b u t
enough political
leverage
remained to keep the project
afloat. "When all was said and
done, the Georgian senators pre-
vailed."
Those who question such projects are often attacked by opponents as unpatriotic, she said.
Rivers said she's concerned
about possible cuts in programs
which help people. "There's no
opportunity to look at the value
of the programs relative to one
another."
She noted many minimum
wage earners.need governmental
help to make ends meet. Rivers
favors a hybrid approach, in
which people would work and
contribute to society but get help
from the government as needed.
"It's a confusing time," she
said of the current political battle.. There's a lot of fingerpointing going on."
Questions from the audience
ranged from phone service concerns to issues related to health
insurance.
Rivers
encouraged
constituents to check "behind the
headlines" on her Web site at
www .house .gov/rivers/welcome. h
tm. It currently includes information on such topics as the
budget battle and, on the international front, t h e P a n a m a

She brushed aside with a
laugh a suggestion that s^he run

too short of stature to win.

This year's Westiand Uity Council race
hasn't been without rancor, but last
Thursday night, Oct, 21, was a shining
moment. The Westiand Jaycees sponsored a
"Meet the Candidates" night at the WayneFord Civic League.
All eight candidates showed up - incumbents Glenn Anderson and Charles "Trav"
Griffin, appointee David Cox and challengers
James Godbout, David James, Michael
Kehrer, Michael Rintz and Dorothy Smith,
Their willingness to meet together and with
voteis was a gmxl sUtrl.
The candidates answered a series of ques-
many more than 50, and it would have beeri
nice to have a crowd of several hundred.
Election day dawns Tuesday. Nov. 2, with
local polls open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Remember to

N
o, those aren't orange Christmas lights
you see adorning your neighbor's roof And
if some of your colleagues start looking like
clowns or vampires, you're probably not hallucinating.
If you find yourself stumbling over bins of
miniature chocolate bars at the neighborhood
drugstore, or the aisles of the local supermarket are jammed with displays of Count Chocula cereal among the gourds and pumpkins,
there's a reason for it.
It's Halloween. Or, at least, it's almost. Halloween. And it isn't just for children anymore.
According to the National Retail Federation, Halloween has grown into a $5 billion a
year industry. Sales of those miniature chocolate bars rise 200 percent in the pre-HalToween weeks'and the NBF •predicts'tHaT total
candy sales will reach $1,8. billion, with costume sales amounting to $1.5 billion
Kraft Foods says that last year its sales of
Tombstone Pizza increased by 32 percent during the last week of October.
Sales of home decorations; greeting cardij;
pumpkins and other seasonal items are
expected to reach $2.5 billion.
The NRF thinks such spending is due in
part to the newfound popularity of the holiday
among adults, A poll conducted by the organization found that 52.2 percent of U.S. workers
said their employers would allow them to celebrate Halloween in the workplace and 39.1
percent said they would consider wearirTg a
costume to work to mark the event.
Whatever the reason for the spending
surge, Halloween is now second only to;Christmas in holiday-related sales.
Some consumer analysts credit (or blame)
the transformation of what was once a children's holiday into an adult spending blitz on
baby boomers feeling nostalgic. And when
boomers get nostalgic, they spend money.

Cox response
A
letter appeared recently in the Westiand
Observer indicating that because I distributed a piece of campaign literature that was
not prepared by a union printer, I lack respect
for labor unions——•t*
In truth, I have been an ardefft supporter of
labor and am proud to have been endorsed by
the Westiand Firefighters, the Westiand
Police Officers, the Westiand Lieutenants and
Sergeants Association, the United Auto Workers Region 1A CAP, UAW Local 900, the
Greater Detroit Building Trades Council,
AFL-CIO, AFSCME Local 1602 and even the ,
letter writer's own union, the Michigan Education Association. These labor groups are
well aware that I planned to prepare one
_piece_
of literature with a Westiand printer and they
are aware there are no union printers in Westland.
The real issue here is that the writer of this
letter, Mr. Michael Chiumento, is the same
individual who pressured the Wayne-Weatland School District while I was president to
include sexual orientation language in board
policy. He is now the center of controversy in
the Plymouth-Canton School District, where
he teaches, for setting up a pro-gay and lesbian display in the display case a t West Middle School, which is attended by 12-, 13- and
14-year-old children.
He is a member of the Gay-Lesbian Education Network, a supporter qf the Triangle
Foundation and a vocal proponent to schoolchildren for the normalcy of "alternative
lifestyles." Though he might have you believe
that his intent by his letter is to protect the
interests of labor, it is actually to promote the
normalcy of a gay-lesbian lifestyle in our
schools and our society, and myfaifure to
bend to his wishes made me his enemy,
I believe in equal rights for all people. I
believe that no one should be persecuted, tormented or harassed for any reason whatever,
including their sexual orientation. My decision
to thwart Mr. Chiumento's efforts while I
served as board president resulted from my
-belief that existing policy protected all people,
adequately, equally and fairly. I continue to
feel that way today.
I will continue to work towards fairness and
equality for all people everywhere as I feel bigotry and prejudice are hateful, damaging emotions that cannot be tolerated in a civilized
society. I have often wondered why. given Mr.
Chiumento's life experience, he hasn't arrived
at the same conclusion.
C o u n c i l m a n David Cox

The Westiand Address
O
ne score and 13 years ago, our fathers
brought forth in this.township a democratic form of government based on division of
power and authority between a mayor and a
seven-member city council. "'
~~
Now we are engaged in a great election
testing whether this democratic division of
power can long endure..Our present mayor is
attempting to consolidate power in his office
by handpieking his own city council. This is
tantamount to giving the mayor dictatorial
powers: truly an unhealthy situation.
The mayor's recent letter to voters supporting these candidates lists a number of accomplishments during the last decade that resulted from cooperation between council and
mayor. Many of these occurred during his first
term of office when the majority of council
members were far from politically aligned
with the mayor, proving that worthwhile programs can and will be implemented without a
political coalition.
Although we have supported our mayor in
the past and could possibly support him in the
future,' we feel strongly that, a_riiy. council
independent of the mayor's office brings about
a diversity of opinions, reduces the possibility
of special interest dealings and is essentia! for,
good government.
Whatever your feelings are, be sure to vote
Nov. 2. ,

ask Councilwoman Justine B a r n s
about t h e last-minute charge s h e had
to make about council candidate
Michael Kehrer a n d a $1,000 contribution from the Jaycees even though
$501 was returned to the Jaycees,
thus making it a last-ditch effort to

I wanted to ask B a m s how did this
so-called info get into her hot little
hands?
And if she would name the socalled people who complained to her
or taking a line from Councilman
David Cox neither confirm nor deny
their names?
. W h a t it comes down to is trying
to discourage people from coming out
and voting Nov. 2 so the people better
buckle up and get ready for a massive
d u m p i n g of garbage from now until

T
he sexiest story coming out of Lansing so
far this fall was the a t t e m p t by the Republican-dominated Legislature to trim back
the power of newly elected Attorney General,
Democrat Jennifer Granholm,
L'affaire Granholm was clumsily handled m a
very public way, leaving much egg'on the collective faces of House Republicans, Gov. John
Engler and his staff. Because the facts of the
story have been the subject of endless spinning.
I've spent some time working out what actually
happened. It's a fascinating tale, revealing
much about the inner dynamics of Michigan poI :
ttics.
~~~
~—~—^ ''—
—-^.
As with most stories, this one s t a r t s with a
core of substance. It's by no means clear what
precise authority Michigan's attorney general
has over bills passed by the Legislature or over
the workings of the executive branch. The Con. Stitution is largely silent on.this point, and during F r a n k Kelley's 37-year reign as the "Eternal
General,' 1 nobody had. the guts to raise the
issue.
E n t e r John Engler, now in the middle of his
third term as governor, An extremely able
politician and competent m a n a g e r of the executive branch, Engler is also, um. really into control.
Early on, he busted the Department of Natural Resources in two, He abolished the Labor
D e p a r t m e n t and moved the Michigan Employ-'

Treasurer situation status quo
BY MARIE CRESTNinr
firrjOTWWTOt
*
nicheataey9oe.honiecoiRim.net
Kirtften Galka tried Monday
but failed to convince at least
one- more trustee that the Livonia school board should reconsider how the board treasurer is
picked.
Right now, the treasurer is a
district employee appointed by
the board each July,
Two weeks ago, Galka proposed that the treasurer be a
trustee, elected each year to the
post by fellow board members.
To keep the debate going and
perhaps achieve a change, Galka
needed the backing of another
trustee. But at Monday's board
committee .meeting, the six other
trustees made it clear they are
satisfied with the way the bqard
treasurer is now chosen.
"Is there a reason to change
the way we do things?" asked
t r u s t e e F r a n k Kokenakes.
"We've had this precedent for
years. The majority of the board
is happy. Why is this a better
idea?"
Under the present system,
boa-rd members hear about
financial matters,at the tail end
of the budget process, Galka
answered,
"You get info given to you;
you're not involved with the
process," said Galka, "It's done
by Randy (Liepa) and given to
us. When T ran (for trustee), one
of the things I wanted was more,
accountability."
In 1988, the board adopted the
policy of picking a treasurer that
is still in effect. The policy states
that the treasurer must be a district employee under contract to
the board.
The pohcy spells out the duties
of the employee-treasurer: Exercise care and Custody of all
money of the district; maintain
the district's financial records in
an orderly manner; and perform
such duties as prescribed by the
board.
'
Liepa, the district's assistant
superintendent for business, is
the appointed treasurer.
The trustee* said board members could achieve Galka's gqal
of a more: "banda-oiT approach
simply by meeting one-on-one
with Liepa throughout the year
and quizzing him about finances.
Trustee Ken Timmons B aid
trustees don't have the professional expertise to take on the
task of directly managing the
district's budget.
"We're not accountants or
CPAs," he said.
Superintendent Ken Watsori
reminded the seven board members that, aa trustees, they are
Liepa's boss and that they have
trre^final say in financial matters,
"You have that prerogative,"
he said.
If Galka can sway one more
t r u s t e e to her side, then the
board willcontinue the debate,
Klratm Qalka
said trustee Diane Nay.
Otherwise, "we have no interest in continuing this" dialogue,
she said.

Monroe football coach Ralph Carducci was watching film at home Tuesday
night preparing for his first-round
opponent in the state football playoffs
— Westland John Glenn.
They (Glenn) are very sound, they're
aggressive and they block well," the
eighth-year coach said. T h e i r tailback
'Eric Jones) is very, very talented.
T h e i r offensive scheme is not complicated, but what they do, they ck> it
well."
Glenn and Monroe, both 7-2 on the
regular season, tangle in a Division I
Region ILDistrict 2 matchup. 7:30 p.m.
Friday at Monroe.
It is the first-ever meeting between
the two schools on the gridiron. Their
only common opponent is Wayne

Monroe beat Wayne. 27-11. while
Glenn ended the regular season with a
24-7 win over the Zebras.
Theft? *un't be any secret* &a it
appears both t^ams will be well-prepared.
Glenn will have to contain Monroe's
Wing-T attack, something Carducci
installed in his third year as the lVo*

'When I first got here we ran out of
the 'Power i,' but then our fullback and
tailback got hurt and I was asking

Oarducci s;iid. "We've been able to play
it pretty well. This year we've been a

team, but we've also thrown a lot this

The Monroe backfi-erd revolves
around 6-foot-l, 220-pound fullback
Chad Mosher, who,had rushed for
1,20.2 yards.__
The Trojans will also use three tailbrtck-s— --Kent Brinson. William Walk

Shaun Murray assisted on the game-winner by
Scott, the latter whom had bfen tightly marked
throughout the night by Franklin's Ken Douglass.
^Franklin played a tough first half and we had
trouble passing out to the wing, or for that matter,
getting the ball onto anyone's foot with any type of
consistency," tfaid.Churchill< first-year coach Reid
Friedrichs, whose team snapped a two-game losing
skid.."Before the second half we asked somebody to
step up. We had chances a,nd finally Eric was the
guy."
For Franklin, which bowed out at 9-11 overall, it
was the final game for seniors Ryan Kracht and
Ross Bohler.
"Jeremy Bruckner was solid in goal and we were
solid defensively with Jon Nettles back there."
Franklin coach Dave Hebestreit said. "It's hard to
single anybody out. All my guys stepped up. It was
a great match, very entertaining, one of the best of
the year.

Beyond limits from page CI
is a severe communication and learning disorder.
Many individuals with autism have little or no
communication. They are in their own world.
With Scott, even proper social exchanges such as
"hello" have to be taught and consistently reinforced.
"The real race started when he was an infant,*
Wright said. "It's So rewarding to know,of hia athletic improvement and to see his accomplishments
surpass the limits set by society. '
"It's very satisfying to see that he can do things
independently, It's a credit to all the different people who b^iitvyed in him, along with their faith and
church. It was a privilege to be with Scott and his
family.".
With the help of the internationally-renowned
Burger School for the Autistic in Garden City,
Scott received the needed assistance from teachers
and therapists to promote him to public school.
Despite his eccentricities, Scott appears to have
the potential to fit nicely into the mainstream of
life.
"Although he rr.sv not rVflv* the social °rsces he
needs to be treated like everyone else,." Ken Howse
said, "You need the same expectations, and don't
lower them because of his disability."
Running seems to bring Scott "out of his world"

Scott seemed genuinely excited about his win.
When he passed the crowd lined up at the end of
the first loop, Scott picked up his pace,
"He seems to thrive on competition," his dad
said, "It really brings him along and it helps him
with academics.
T h e night before he had to get to bed early and
get his homework done."
Wright remembers one day before a cross country meet when Scott "would focus in on the clouds."
"He was checking the wind and letting his teammates know about it so it would iielp them in the
race, Wright &aid. v»itii Scott its a nearn>ug process. He wasn't just a runner or a kid with a disability who was unable to communicate."
Ken Howse realizes there are many more challenges ahead. The plan is to run cross country and
track a t t h e high school level,
-- - <=••-• -?
"It's going to be a rude awakening for him I'm
sure hell be starting from the bottom," Ken a i d
"But I think he's up to it,"
Slowly, but surely, Scott may fool people at the
next level once a^ain
"We've spent hours and hours of time/' Ken
Fjowse said. "But if you bring-a child into the
world, the Good Lord says you're responsible to
iove and nurture him,"
Connie Howse, Said the family'* fafth conTinues

Halloween ...
kids are up
to old tricks
W
hen I was a kid, the youthful
prank of TP-ing houses was
not considered mischief.
Adults slid right past that category
and labeled it "juvenile delinquency."
It must have been to prevent that
and other such apparently reprehensible acts at Halloween that we had
an annual fair at Covington Grade
School.
The funny thing is, no one in my
family can remember rampant misdeeds being reported in local newspapers that necessitated having to "keep
us off the streets," as adults were fond
of saying.
The kids really didn't care why we
were treated to this great yearly
event. We just looked forward to it
with relish. We bobbed tor apples *——

bedsheet-draped booth.
Lucky at the Cakewalk, my sister,
Regina, and I would bring home three
cakes for our father's birthday.
- Evpry year my mother made Regina, who was older, promise she would
not let me go in the spook house - the
boys' locker room, which glowed with
eerie lights - because it scared the
dickens out of me.
And just as predictably, I begged
each year until Regina relented. I'd
get no farther than the kid in the wet
gorilla suit jumping out at me. and
the 6shbowl of painted, peeled grapes
said to be witches' eyes before I was
clamoring to get out.
Their youthful pranks
It only occurred to me in later years
that it probably wasn't any great mischief uu our part that made tho adults
nervous enough to host the Halloween
fair. It was more likely memories of
their own youthful pranks that worried them.
Over the years, Fve collected stories
from folks who grew up in the early
decades of the century. It seems that,
whether in the city or country, these
kids had their favorite tricks.
According to many now-responsible
citizens, turning over outhouses was,
indeed, common in farming communities - with or without an occupant.
And high roofs of a one-room school or
grange hall were popular places to
relocate farmers' wagons.
Of course, I had to be long past my
childhood to discover pranks my own
parents played. My mother's favorite
ploy was sticking pins in doorbells
and taking off lickety-split.
"We'd go tearing through thAneighborhood with a secret yell - a shriek,
really," she recalls with glee, T h e
boys were really good at it because
they could whistle better. People
came to the door pretending they
didn't know what it was. They did, of
course, because We did it every year."
Parents''mischief
I find from my mother that my late
father wasn't above Halloween mischief in the 1920s, either. He'd take a
coarse sack filled withflour,slam it
against a door and ring the bell,
when the person answered the door,
a feathery white cloud billowed in the
air before settling at afinepowder;
No doubt it wa« while having to
sprintfromthe scene that he discovered skills which later earned him
track: medals.
He and his friends had an affinity
for aerial antics, too If the homeown er WSJfoolishenough to leave some-'

n 1983 nine women - all first time
moms - gathered together to lend
an ear and offer support to, each
other as they collectively entered into
parenthood.
Sixteen years later the same group
of women, a 'little older and a lot
wiser, met again for a reunion of
Providence Hospital: Southfield's
"Make Room for Baby" group.
Unlike most postpartum support
groups for new mothers, the original
group continued to meet beyond the
six weeks the formal hospital group
did - gathering at homes, restaurants, gymnastic meets - anywhere
they could to compare notes, share
stories and offer one another the confidence they needed that they were
"succeeding."
"Most of us were s t a y - a t - h o m e
moms," said Sue Drewes, one of two
moms responsible for the 16th birthday party/reunion of the baby group.
T h i s was the first child for all of us
and we needed the reassurance that
we were normal and that we weren't
crurkuig up. , .
"Not only that but if was a chance
for us to meet other women and tu
g a i n confidence. We w e r e really
doubtfuiMjf our abilities/
The nine original moms and their
children were Vanessa Milligan (formerly V a n e s s a P r u s a k i e w i c z > and
son, Josh Pnisakiewicz; Marilyn Wozniacki and daughter, Lauren; Paula
Reimann and son, Joe; Drewes and
daughter, Lindsay; Cora Sterling and
daughter, Erin; Thelma Dunaitis and
son, Josh; Kathy Wight-Pallister and
son, Doug; Serena Crisan and son,
Drew; and Mary. Kay Landsberg and
daughter, Katie.
Getting together
A c c o r d i n g to .Drewes, . t h e n i n e
moms met frequently until 1988 when
t h e addition of siblings and o t h e r
activities made it too hard, to coordinate schedules.
Get-togethers sometimes included
the participants spouses and consisted of dinners, hirthda'y parties and
holiday functions, said the Rochester
Hills mom.
Ist-time moms
keep sharing
milestones
"We stayed in touch through Christm a s cards and tetters, but those eventually trailed off," said Wozniacki, a
Livonia resident.
Wozniacki joined the bahy group in
the'fa 1.1 of 1983 after her d a u g h t e r
was born in August, After the first
six-week support group ended; she
signed up again and met the remainder of the original nine members.
"We were a unique g r o u p . " said
Wozniacki, "We came from different
age g r o u p s a n d economic backg r o u n d s , but we all had the s a m e
ideas about raising kids, When we got
back together in September it was
nice to know we were all still on the
same page about, things from cars to
dating.
"It was like we never stopped meeting even though 1(). years had passed"
Drewes said six of the nine women

Midwestern audience?
Bernhardt Midweatern audiences aren't sis self-indulgent.
You have to be hardy to make it
in the Midwest.
Self-indulgent?
Hardy?
Hmmm. What happened to the
snarling, lips-flapping-in-thewind Sandra Bernhard who
wise-cracked that her mother's
an abstract artist and h#r
father's a proctologist, and that's
how she looks at the world?
For a comedienne who claims
to be following in the stinging
satirical tradition of Lenny
Bruce, not commenting on the
state of American politics seams
like a missed opportunity. Perhaps a sign that politics has
descended so far that not even
humor can resuscitate it. Or that
Benefit
when it comes to anything deeper than the superficial subject of
celebrities, maybe Bernhard has
met her match.
Of eourse, Bemhard's element
iint polemics. It's abrasive put*
downs. Her brand of humor is
more like overhearing petty gossip among friends than the
shrewd proclamations of Bruce,
Lilly TomLin or even Dennis
Miller and Chris Rock-type
comedians,
"My stuff comes from conversations with friends and from
observing people," said Bernhard, whose friends include the
famous and not so famous.
"1 don't come from any point of
view," she said. "I just want to
get beyond the crap that's
shoved our way."

come to our theater. We're also
looking to get ourselves in front
of new audiences - so many people have heard about us, but
never seen us."
They picked "The Women" to
open their season because it has
a large cast - 18 women who
play 32 different roles. "We've
done all-female shows, (but) not
this hig," said Tnpper "There
aren't many shows written for
women. We have more women
than men in our group. There's a
broad range of roles, everything
from early 20s to 50s."
In casting the show, the group
did attract some new members,
which was one of its goals.
Suzanne Rogers, who plays
Sylvia Fowler in the show a:nd
works as a social worker for
Henry Ford Health Systems,
suggested doing the benefit performance. The group supported
her idea.
"It's a show that's all about
women," said Tupper. "It's a fairly light show, it's good for them
and good for ns Henry Ford
Health Systems was thrilled
about it. It's what community
collaboration is all about. By presenting the benefit we're expos
ing new people to our theater.

Fair enough. But at times, it
seems that Bernhard doesn't
know the difference between
•getting beyond the'crap" and
just moving around the piles.
Fifteen minutes after she
called right on time, Bernhard
notes that the allotted time is
up. No time to ask about if the
tiff with Madonna ia still raging;
No time to ask the actress who
played on "Roseanne" about why
she doesn't hide from being a lesbian but won't get involved in
gay rights issues. And no time to
ask where the real Sandra Bernhard is hiding.
Then just like that, she hangs
up with an abrupt, "Nice talking
to you."
Amazing. She didn't even take
a swing.

fascination to connect with
someone who found the independence and confidence when
women were so suppressed."
This is also Jeremy Hargis'
first time doing Shakespeare, At
first, it was a little daunting for
the 19-yea-r old Garden City student to play Old Gobbo. Hargis,
who began acting in third grade,
has appeared in Plymouth Theatre Guild productions.
"I have to play this older man
physically and mentally so I
watched a coupievcf s & Engtisir
films," said Margie Because it
was Shakespeare, I was kind of
intimidated to try out. But it's
not as bad as I expected."
VanHoeck drew upon his
"many eSpeTriences witnessing
theater" to create the villainous
Shylock.
"The language was a challenge
and the Jewish accent, but I
gained an appreciation for
Shakespeare," said VanHoeck. "I
had little involvement with

ladies who wasted their lives
with affairs, malicious gossip
and beauty salons, while having
no empathy for women trapped
in low-paying jobs.
Although there's some serious
material in "The Women," Rogers
said it's also funny and many
people will see themselves and
people they know in the characters. "It's going to be fun, a lot _of
laughs," she said 'Some people
will think it's dated, but in a lot

Talk about your stranger in a

Haskell Harelik was. one of t h e
m i l l i o n s of E u r o p e a n s who
arrived on these shores in the
opening decade of the century,
the huddled masses yearning to
breathe free. Somehow he made
a left turn at the Statue of Liberty and ended up at the Port of
G a l v e s t o n , T e x a s , And t h a t ' s
where we meet him: "The Immigrant."
P e d d l i n g b a n a n a s from a
J E T and director John Michael
Manfredi present an easy choice
for a most delightful evening of
warm smiles and personal reflection.
Greg Triaskoma reaches right
i n t o e a c h of o u r own p h o t o

characterization is sensational.
Spouting incomprehensible Yiddish as he meets banker Milton
Perry (Paul Hopper) and his wife

s e e m s to t h e m like he's from
M a r s , not Minsk. Ima t r i e s to
make him feel at ease: "I'm nothirv' to be scared of; I'm a Chris*
tian."
Some comfort that is.
Throughout the 33-year storyline, Trzaakoma never loses his
lovability or his reality. As he
b e c o m e s A m e r i c a n i z e d , wife
Leah (Jodie Kuhn Ellison) takes
him to task for not adhering to
t h e i r religious laws r e g a r d i n g
food and such (keeping Kosher).
She think* perhaps they should
be with their own kind. The Jews
have been wandering for thourrands of years, he tells her; this
w h e e l b a r r o w to s u r v i v e , he's
taken in by a couple in nearby
Hamilton (population 1;200), He
not only survives b u t thrives.
' He brings his wife over, starts
a family and 80 y e a r s later his

them. The "RoottT-like light comedy would be too i m p r o b a b l e
were it not for the fact that it'*
all true, and J E T shows you the
photos from Grandma's album to
prove it.
Indeed, the subtitle of the play
.is- "A Hamilton County Album,"
but we have some others we offer
a u t h o r M a r k H a r e l i k free of
charge. How about "The Immigrant: Peddler on the Hoof?" Or
"The Immigrant: Lune Jew in the
Lone Star State." Or our personal favorite, "The Immigrant: Living La Vida Meshugga,"
And crazy it is, t h i s t r a n s p l a n t e d life Haskell has opted
for. Looked on w i t h suspicion
and b e w i l d e r m e n t , he meekly
explains how his race came to be
the chosen people: "There were a
lot fewer people then, it was an
easier choice"
Jew has wandered enough. The
play is a aerie» of these cherished moments,

was a nice change of pace. She.
was able to give Amy a
comedic side, as well as provide
her with an "added intensity."
McDermott, who is known for
hts role as attorney Bobby Donnell in ABC's "The Practice," has
just the right look for a powerful
industrialist. He is very handsome and incredibly smooth,
which makes him convincing an a
charming tycoon.
Piatt, known as one of the busi*
eat actors in Hollywood, has
recently starred in "Lake Placid,"
"Bulworth" and "Dr. Doolittle."
With a resume full of diverse
parts, Platt*is able to be funny,
intelligent and dramatic. He plays
a very convincing gay man.
"Three To Tango" is an entertaining film with a unique concept of keeping the lead characters apart. Although slow at times
and a little lacking on the comedic
end, the film makes up for it with
such an engaging^ensemble cast.

attracted to him as well.
Amy is very casual about her
relationship with Charles and
when he can't be with her she
keeps herself busy with her
career as an artist. When Oscar
stumbles into her life, she finds
herself falling for a man she
thinks is gay and involved with a
married man, placing her at the
center of the love triangle.
Oscar eventually realizes the
only reason Charles asked him to
watch over Amy was because he is
overly jealous and he thinks
Oscar is gay. But it gets worse.
Not only does Amy think he is
gay, so do his friends, his family
and almost all of Chicago.
Oscar admits to having intimacy issues with women in the past
and thinks that by pretending to
be gay he will be able to "really"
get to know Amy. So Oscar goes
with it. He becomes the most,
famous gay man in Chicago.
But when he is to be honored as

OAK: What'e the tifruftcAnce

and why ii that your favorite

Zadorozny: "I've alway* jimt
liked it. There's nothing too big
or too deep behind it. The record
wasn't planned to be called that:
The la»t deadline to come up
with a title came when. I was in
Saskatchewan, driving through
an ice storm ... I talked it out
loud to myself There actually
was a preoccupation with that
time of year and what it does to
me. It j u s t sort of very simply
and gracefully summed up the
record."
O&E: How has coming from a
mualcal family influenced your
own work?
Zadorozny: "I'm encouraged to
do muaic all the time, I've sort of
taken something from both of

but she understands it She's
more of a pure musician.*
OAK J How did you hook up
with Hole and end up writing a
•song PReataon* to Be Beautiful")
with Courtney Love for the
band's recent release.
Zadoroiny: "Melissa (.Auf Der
Mauri from Ho|e; she and I wt»re
in a band called Tinker together
We've always remained very
close . I got a call from, Melissa
She said, 'Do you want to come
out (to Los Angeles)?' I flew out
from Kansas City and stayed a
month and a half, It was very
interesting, to say the least, I
stayed up at the house. They had
a basement rec room. We
watched Bowie videos all night.
They were just kind of looking
for someone to come in a direction they would not otherwise
have gone in I should've pushed
a little harder. One song made
the record."
OAE; What are, your aspirations for Blinker the S t a r *
future?
Zadorozny: T d like to sell a lot
of records so I can maybe buy H
house back in Pembroke, maybe
buy this house, my mom's house
The most important thing is to
make records I would want to
listen to. I was driving through
Toronto and I heard our song on
the radio. I thought, 'If this was
n't me would I still be into this?'
I would."
OAE: What can-Blinker fans
expect to
live?
Zadorotny: "We kind of amp it
up a little bit, We sort of play n
little more aggressively. The
songs are represented pretty
well. It's pretty true to the
record, it also kind of takex on n
spirit of its own."
