Supreme Court won't hear school case BY CATHERINE PASSMORE
Clarkston News Staff Writer
Four years after the original lawsuit was filed, the
Michigan Supreme Court has refused to hear a case
involving Springfield Christian Academy.
The school - which is run out of Dixie Baptist
Church, Springfield Township - filed a lawsuit against
the Michigan Department of Education on June 5, 1989.
The MOOE had threatened to close the Academy and 30
other Michigan private schools for not submitting certain
information as required by state law. The lawsuit, which was filed in Ingham County
Circuit Court by four churches, a teacher and two ClarkÂ
ston parents against the MDOE, claims church-run schools •
should be exempt from state jurisdiction and that the
state's administrative hearings on the matter should be
discon tinued. .
Taking a turn for J erf!my Springfield Christian Academy has refused to subÂ
mit information the state deems necessary to comply with
its plans for schools. The information includes teacher
qualification, the minimum number of school days, and
whether or not the curriculum is comparable to that in
public schools.
DURING the bone marrow testing drive for Springfield Township teen Jeremy Leach, Oakland County . Prosecutor L. Brooks Patterson takeS a tum giving a blood sample. Phlebotomist Donna Duiguld performs the task at the Boy Scouts of America building off Telegraph Road. Organizer David Higgins said 465 showed up to be sampled April 7.

Tests. "Public schools are not obligated to take these tests
"The reality is that the (MDOE) thinks it must have ultimate control of all education," said Baldwin. "We are not going to let them dictate what we can teach and who
and many don't. The children (in public schools) take the Michigan Education Assessment Program (MEAP) test, which doesn't compare nationally."

we can hire." Baldwin said children at the schools test one-and-a-half to two grade levels higher than children in local public schools, illustrating that the children are getting a
good education. . Baldwin explained that the children in the private schools take national standardized tests, such as the Iowa Basic Skills tests, the SAT and the California Aptitude
Nominations sought for community awards
Nominees are sought for the 1993 Clarkston Area
Community Awards. Sponsored by the Clarkston Chamber of Commerce
and the NatioQlli Bank of Detroit, the annual awards 4
recognize local citizens who contribute their time and effort toward improving the quality 'Of life in the area.
Nominations are accepted through April 19 for the following award categories: Citizen of the Year, The Young Adult Citizen of the Year (18 or younger), Youth Volunteer, Historic Preservation, Business Person of the Year, and Property Beautification.
The awards banquet is slated for May 19 at the refurbished Spring Lake Country Club on Maybee Road, Independence Township. The breakfast banquet is schedÂuled to start at 7:30 a.m. Admission is $10 per person.
The master of ceremonies is Brent Cooley. Others expected to speak are state Sen. Mat Dunasldss and state
Rep. Tom Middleton. Ballots are available at the Clarkston Area Chamber
of Commerce office, Tierra's and Donna McCloskey's State Farm Agenc1 office. For more information, call the Chamber at 625-8055.
national tests because they'd be "showed up" by the
children in other states. Baldwin gave the example of a non-approved pri-
vate school in Lake Odessa where on a whim the children took the MEAP test and the school scored 100 percent. "There's not a public school in the state who could do
that," he said. He also said the children in the private schools will
not have to take the test to get a state diploma when that
comes into effect "That is a meaningless diploma. The MEAP test is
the only test approved. They've dumbed down the scores to let more kids graduate," he said.
Baldwin said the MEAP requires seniors to take a test geared for sophomores and juniors, and they'll be able to pass with a lower score than previously required.
Springfield students will not take the test - which won't affect their further education or careers, he said.
"We've talked to colleges and it won't modify their
requirements," said Baldwin. What's next?
Since the Michigan Supreme Court refused to hear the case, the churches lost this lawsuit and the administraÂtive hearings have continued. The schools filed a second lawsuit in the Michigan Court of Appeals, and the state won't aUempt to close the schools until administrative hearings and the second lawsuit are settled.
The hearings began with an informal conference in May 1989 to discuss the problem between theQschools and the state. I~ summer of that year, at formal hearings, the ", state supenntendent ordered the schools to comply with the request for information. The schools refused and filed
suit against the state. The Circuit Court supported the state, and the suit is
now in the Court of Appeals.

School district ponders effects of ballot Proposal A Impact figures to be discussed at April 19 meeting
BY CURT MCALLISTER Clarkston News Associate Editor
Clarkston school officials have been going over Proposal A with a rme-tooth comb, in the event that the tax reform proposal is approved by the voters June 2.
The aftermath of such an approval woulan 't hurt the district, but there are still a few variables to be considered, said Steve Lenar, deputy superintendent of business and
operations. "From my understanding, we won't. get hurt," he .
said. "However, the Legislature has yet to decide if they'll continue paYing for school employees'. S~ial Security and retirement costs. We could lose $3 mIllion per year on those two items alone."
Lenar said the state has covered 95 percent of these I items' costs in the past. These items are presently bei~g
haggled over in Lansing as part of a separate School Aid
Act. When asked to evaluate Proposal A at face value,
Lenar said he saw merit in the _proposed constitutional
amendment "I see it as positive," he said. "It'll be good for
Kindergartners' . orientation May 3-7
Parents of incoming kindergartners should reserve a spot for their child's upcoming orientation in May.
May 3-7. the district's ftve elementary schools will hold orientation programs for their incoming students and parents. The dates for these schools include:
8 May 3 - Pine Knob Elementary, 9:30-11 a.m. and 2-3:30. p.m. (6~5-1583) .

8 May 6-Bailey Lake Elementary, 9:30-11 a.m. and 2-3:30 p.m. (625-2812)
• May 7 - Andersonville Elementary, 9-10:30 a.m. and 1-2:30 p.m. (625-53,00) .
Parents should call their respective schools for an appointtnent. On the day of th~ orientation, paren~ need to bring the child's birth certlftcate, proof of reSidency and the pupil's state health forJ.ll.

educ~tion because it will bring more equity"to those lower-funded school districts."
Proposal A would cut property taxes by raising the state's sales tax from 4 percent to 6 percent, effective July 15.
That would allow school operating property tax mills to be rolled back to at least 18 mills. Voters could approve an additional 9 n:tills, but school operating mills
. would be capped at 27 mills. The state has set Clarkston'S proposed millage rate
at 22.19. It's presently 38.83 mills, which means a cut of nearly 16.6 mills. . .
. Neighboring school districts Brandon and Holly would have their millage rates set at 18 mills. Richer districts like West Bloomfteld and Troy would already be maxed out at 27 mills.
A mill is $1 for each $1,()()() in assessed property valuation.
The plan wopld·also guarantee, each school, district 'at least $4~S()()' Cunding for each pupil in kindergarten through 12th grade;
In Clarkston, this figure would be $5,30S.36per pupil.-Presently, the district spends $5,154 on ~ch stu-dent
Even though. Clarkston would beneftt in per-pupil allocation, Lenar believes the state needs to re-adjust its calculatory formula He said Clarkston's per-studentalloÂcation represents only enrollment numbers from the presÂent school year.
Lenar said the state needs to take future enrollment projections into account before setting these monetary ratios in stone. For example, next year, 195 new students are expected to enroll in the Clarkston school district
The presence of ~ese students would automatically decrease the amount of money per pupil in the long run ..
Lenar said he'll provide Ute school board and the public with more definitive numbers about the effects of Proposal A at the April 19 school board meeting. The meeting is slated to start at 7 p.m. in the board office, 6389 Clarkston Road.
Election money transferred Not expecting an election in 1993, the Springfield
Township Board had no funds for the June 2 eleCtion . The board unanimously voted to transfer $1,500
from the contingency budget to the election budget April 8. The money eventually will be reimbursed by the state.

If a tree falls in a forest ...
-Opinioas Editorial
Julie CalDpe
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?
If an event takes place in the Oadcston area and The Oarkston News isn't there to cover it, is it still
State should relax its grip on private, religious schools
state should intervene.
news?
Some people would answer no to both of the above questions. However, I would answer yes.
A sound is. a sound whether we hear it or not. When a tree falls, sound waves are formed and travel through the air or water, whether they go to a person's ear or not.
Likewise, a news item is a news item whether it is documented in The Oarkston News or not. It impacts the people in the same way - whether it is carried in the newspaper or not.
nus subject arises because sometimes The News is asked to cover an event, say on a Tuesday night when our small staffis laying out the paperin Oxford, and'we're unable to-accommodate. -
While we agree the item is worth covering, we explain that we can't be there, and we 9ffer an alterÂnative (perhaps someone else could take pictures that we could copy, or maybe we could write about the event for next week's paper).
How much control the government can have on private schools is the question raised by a lawsuit that began four years ago.
We think the control should be limited and perhaps handled differently than at present.
The suit came about. in 1989 ~r Springfield Christian Academy and twoQJherchurch-run schools were told to conform to state rules or close their doors. The school maintains that it is unconstitutional forthe state ,to demand compliance. Current state law says the state must oversee the education of children in private and public schools. The law doesn't say how.
The children at Springfield Christian Academy test one-and-a-half to two grades above children in local public schools.
When the children are obviously learning all they are supposed to learn, why does the state care about the accreditation oCthe teachers and the number of days the pupils attend school?
In extreme cases where children are abused or . continually perform poorly on standardized tests, the
Most ~Qple understand and, ~g~~ to some 0t!Ier -.. arrangement and also agree io call back the nexttirile' . -',<
their group has a noteworthy evenL ' However, some people become angry. Some
have even suggested that the activity won't mean anything unless the newspaper is there, that they might as well cancel the event if we don't think it's newsworthy enough to change our printing schedule for it.
This always puzzles me. I'm always at a loss for words when someone says this.
Jim SherIDan
Newspapers that have "personality" stories, and we all do, usually have their reporters ask, "What's the title of the last book you've read?"
However, in this case, the church-run school children are not harmed. And they are learning and performing better than most of the children in public schools that conform to state requirements.
Parents of these children have decided that they want their chilctren in a religious atmosphere, in a school not dictated by the government
We think that's fine, though recognizing that the state should make sure that the children are safe and are learning their three R's.
, However, that can be accomplished by simply testing the children each year. As long as the children are learning, itdoesn 't matter whether they are taught by teachers with state certification or by teachers with expertise in their field but no certification~
Since the law doesn't dictate which rules the state sets, we think the state should change its policy. It should be flexible enough ~o allow quality private schools to operate in their own way.
Jim's Jottings
I like thin reading
people gave me weren't. If someone cafi tell me an' I need to know about my back in a half-inch book I would think Grisham, Carnegie and Peale could write condensed versions, too. . . t.oui~ L' Amour does a good job writing to my
hmlt requll~ments. He can describe the gun slingers, mesas, caCti, bad guys and dance hall girls and all the activities connected thereto in 160 pages.
Why was the event planned in the first place? If it is an event for children (and it usually is), then isn't the evening itself what's important? Sure, a mention in the newspaper would be nice - it provides a sort of historical account of the eveoingand lets. the community know about it. But surely it is not the sole reason to hold the event.
And if an appearance in the paper is the only purpose, why not just buy space in the form of an advertisement? That way, it would appear when and how those in charge would like - and they wouldn"t necessarily have to hold the event at all.
No one's asked me, but friend Marsha Olrich told me, "If you want to read a good book read 'The Firm. '" So I bought it. Wasn't hard to fmd. It was right in the front of the store where book merchants display most best sellers.
I avoid books like ''The Firm" because of their' thickness. A thick book gives me a defeatist feeling. Like, "I'll never get through that thing!"
I feel the same way about long newspaper artiÂcles, long paragraphs and long sentences ... and, yes, long columns.
I got into some really good, fast reading recently when I was asked to be a "celebrity" reader for some elementary students. It was National Reader Week.
I'd been asked in years past to read to younger students, and quickly refused. Since I think we--all of us--should ~o more to encourage reading, I quickly

McMahan, 18, of the Clarkston area is charged with the murdet of Diana Jean Farmer Bumgardner of Smith, Ky. The 51-year-old woman was beaten beyond.recogniÂtion with table legs, stabbed more than once with a screwdriver. and later doused with kerosene and set on fire on March 25.
Kenmcky police are still investigating whether or not she was sexually assaulted, and nothing was found missing from her home.
AlsO charged in the slaying is Larry Eugene DeClue, 17. of Pontiac. DeClue was ordered April 7 to stand trial as an adulL

Gulick Lake keeps its name Fieldstone Heights gets an extension
BY CURT MCALLISTER Clarkston News Associate Editor
The land' around Gulick Lake may have changed hands, but the lake's namesake will remain the same.
This was the decree of the Independence Township Board April 6, when it denied a developer's request to change the lake's name to Lake Waldon. The board defeated a motion for the name change by a 4-3 margin.
Clerk Joan McCrary, Treasurer John Lutz and TrusÂtee Jeffery McGee voted in favor of the name change. Supervisor Dale Stuart and trustees Mel Vaara, Bruce . Mercado and Daniel Travis opposed the motion.
Gulick Lake and the 151 acres surrounding it beÂlongs to the Holtzman andSilverman DevelopmentCorp., Farmington Hilts. The developer bought the land over a year ago and is in the process of building Lake Waldon Village, which will consist of 125 Eastern seaboard-style colonial homes, two private beach clubs and numerous nature trails.
This property was fonne,;:ly the site of the Camp Fire Girls' Camp Oweki, located south ofWaldoh Road, north of the Spring Lake subdivision.
A spokesperson for Holtzman and Silverman told the board that the name change was for marketing purÂposes. She assured the board that a historic marker would be placed near the banks of the lake, reminding visitors of
, the lake's previous namesake and the land's prior use as a children's camp.
Vaara didn't like the proposal.
"The lake's name lends to the historical value of our community and I'd like it to remain the same."
Trustee Mel Vaara
community and I'd like it to remain the same." Mercado concurred. "I feel the original name has too much historic value
and that a marker isn't enough," he said. McCrary argued that the name change made sense
because of the lake's proximity to Waldon Road. Lutz agree, saying a property owner has the right to
change the name of his land if he wishes. He compared this proposal to one several years ago, when Dennis Lake had its name changed to Heather Lake for similar reasons.
However, Supervisor Dale Stuart and the three other board members weren't convinced.
"I appreciate what the developer is trying to do, but I have to agree that we must tty to maintain such names for historicalpurposes," Stuart said. ''While a historical plaque is commendable, we can't afford to lose our identity."
The-120 acre Fieldstone Heights can't be developed overnight, so the developers have received an extension on their preliminary piaL
The development off of Scott Road, one of the 13l'gest in Springfield Township, received a two-year tentative preliminary plat extension for phases two through six. The land has been divided into six phases and will take about five ÂĄears to sell off. '
The extension came a year after the tentative preÂliminary plat approval. The approval is good for only one year. If the extension hadn't been granted, the plant process would have had to start at square one.
Lots in Phase One have received final plat approval. The board will be notified if any changes take place in the plans within the next two years.

Doug Carlson
~ 'ibis is Innovation No.7 from the U.S. News and World Report article entitled "The Perfect School."
Technology for learning Westfield High School is a small school in a small
town in rural southern Indiana - a school that only a generation ago would have been restricted by its isolation. But today. thanks to the school's invesunent in technolÂogy. its social-studies teachers are able to enrich their instruction on international bade by bringing into their classrooms live coverage of French fannel'S demonstratÂing in Strasbourg or by discussing the subject live with a university professor in California who is an authority on sanctions and embargoes. .
New teChnologies have the power to open up the world to students in schools like Westfield High. Than,ks to the largess of GTE, several other technology compaÂnies and nearby Ball State University, every classroom and office in the three-~hool, 1,919-student school disÂtrict is equipped with a TV monitor and wired into a fiberÂoptic network. Teachers can usea simple channel changer in their ciassrqpms to display everything from newspaper articles and educational graphics to films aiuJ, in the case of Westfield, live programing via satellite.
Much of the material is stored in a single "technolÂogy distribution center" serving the entire school system. Teachers in their classrooms electronically "check out" of the library like center the material they want to use, and it is "delivered" to their rooms with the push of a button. The technology also allows Westfield teachers to create their own multimedia .materials.
Video appeaL To students nurtured on Nintendo, multimedia materials make learning more fun. To educaÂtors eager to improve the quality of instruction in the nation's classrooms, today's technology offers opportuÂnities for less teacher lecturing and more hands-on, inter-
disciplinary learning of the sort advocated by curriculum reformers. Students become "active rather than passive learners" in many high-tech classrooms, says District Superintendent Jeffrey Heier. '
Technology also can help address the vroblem of teacher quality that plagues so many schools. Westfield Washington District's satellite hookup will permit its middle school to offer courses in Japanese, Latin, French and Spanish for the ftrst time next fall. The courses will be taught by certified teachers hired by TI-IN Network, a provider of "distance-learning" programing.
If introduced on a large scale, experts say, cutting-edge technology could improve public education's botÂtom line significantly. Congress's Office of Technology Assessment recently reported "a general consensus that the appropriate assignment of new technologies within effectively organized schools could make a big difference in academic performance."
But the cost of getting the newest technology into classrooms is likely to be high. The computers in many public schools are outdated and used primarily for drilling students in basic skills. Buying hardware and software, wiring school with fiber optics and training typewriterÂgeneration teachers to use the new equipment are all expensive. yet in the long run, technology can produce savings. The total cost of the new foreign language courses in Westfield Washington will be about $2,000, a fraction of what it would cost to hire teachers locally.
While no amount of technowizardry is goiJ)g to do away with the need for high-quality books, teachers and schools, educators are beginning to see technology's potential to transform and improve teaching and learning.

world. The students will participate in the 14th annual
Michigan Future Problem Solving Program State Bowl in Ann Arbor on April 24-25.
Those attending are: Katie Lockwood. Regina White, Kristen Wickhm<t. Tom Hanel, Todd BaueJ', Katie Higdon, Kristy Kade, Karen Leininger. Jason Worden, Steve Bernard, Jimmy Territo, and Dan Cotter. Their coach is Bill Rathburg.
This is a culmination of a year-long program in which the students creatively seek. attack and solve problems related to projections in the future.
The top 30 percent of the Michigan teams from each of three grade divisions will participate in the bowl. The general topic of this year's bowl is drugs. The students don't know the specific nature of the problem they will attempt to solve.
The solutions will be evaluated on established crite-ria and the top four teams from each division will receive trophies. State champions will be invited to represent the state the the International Conn~rence in June.

Law'suit filed over 'deteriorated' house
After numerous requests by Springfield Township to clean their Ember Road property, a couple is now being
sued to comply. A lawsuit filed in 6th District Court on behalf of the
township against Mary Elizabeth and Eugene Graj states the Grajes' house violates the zoning ,ordinance, junk ordinance, the construction code ordinance and the elecÂtrical code ordinance.
A~ording to the complaint, the Grajes "have alÂlowed their property to deteriorate in an uninhabitable condition, by allowing junk, garbage, litter, dirt, excreÂment, rotting food, feces and urine to accumulate throughÂout the house."
Also, large electrical wires hang in the kitchen area, though the house does not have electricity.
The township had begun notifying the couple in December 1992 that they needed to clean Jheir property. After they had been warned, the township took legal action. .

Springfield picks up road chloriding tab
With summer around the comer, people living on dirt roads begin to worry about dust control.
The Springfield Township Board has already disÂcussed these concerns and have made strides to curb the dust problem.
AU of public roads except for one mile on the eastern dead end of Crosby Lake Road will be chlorided by Road Maintenance Corp., Addison Township, for about $53,000. The only two property owners on that part of Crosby Lake Road are not Springfield Township taxpayers.
The cost of chloriding 4.7 miles of road shared with other townships will be split with those townships, and extra applications will be given to 19 mile~ of heavily traveled roads.
The entire cost will be picked up by the township this year instead of sharing the cost with the residents of the dirt roads. In 1992, the township'S cost was $56,000 for only 38 miles of road.

"Fenton Grounds Keeper is a full-time, year-round business for the owner. It is not a sideline. Therefore, he has a vested stake in performing to the customer's expec-tations," the memo stated. '
Another plus is that Fenton Grounds Keeper will use large walk-behind mowers for Shiawassee, which will be less likely than a riding mower to damage the new grass and soil.
The grand total, minus the library lawn, is $520.50 per cut. The library board can choose to use Fenton Grounds Keeper or make. its own arrangements.

The money is to be used to benefit low- and moder-ate-income areas. In the past. block grants have been used to help support Lighthouse North, Neighbor for NeighÂbor, the handicapped and senior citizens. .

Home to be demolished A deteriorated home at 8924 Beachwood, IndependÂ
ence Township, could soon see the wrecking ball. On April· 6, the Independence Township Board
unanimously directed their auorney to press ahead with a lawsuit that would call for the demolition of the residence.
According to Beverly McElmeel, director of the building department, the land owner had planned to renovate the home, but he's run out of capfthl. She said the dilapidated house is an eyesore to neighbors and that it . presents a danger to curious children.
A detached garage on the property could be saved, McElmeel added.
If the court favors demolition, the township would have to seek bids for !!t_e_ h_oIJ!e's removal.

Youths begin neighborhood serVlce BY JULIE CAMPE
Clarkston News Editor
Money and teamwork are the main motivations for a group of Independence Township youngsters who have started their own business.
Kids Co. began in mid-February, when six South Eston Road-area children started shoveling neighbors' driveways and sidewalks for money.
According to Kids Co. members, Nicole Miller, 14, first thought of the idea. Then she figured out the name, the fliers and a way to account for each person's money.
"Nicole was really the founder of it," said her brother, Ryan, who turns 13 on April 21.
Other members include the youngest Miller, Sean, 6; and neighbors Aaron Pursell, 11; Amanda Hautamaki, 12; and Amanda Bone;I2.
The fliers, with key information highlighted in yel-low, read: "Ask yourself these questions: 1) Do I like to shovel snow? 2) Do I like to do yard work? Well if you
';<.lid no LO any of these questions, have we got a deal for )'ou. Kid, Co, is t.he "nswer to your problem. We're here winter, summer. spn ng, fall. Call and ask about the deal. 394-0628."
The deal is that the kids will rake, shovel, clean up your yard, plant flowers, possibly paint and more. If you' have a big yard, you pay the children $10 each ($20 maximum). If you have a small yard, you pay the children $7 each ($14 maximum). Usually, the children work in pairs, but if more than two work, they split the money, explained Ryan.
While they originally performed housework, they no longer offer that service. "We didn't think it was safe," said Aaron, explaining that children shouldn't go inside the homes of strangers. .
So far, the children have earned about $30 ~h. They've spent a little, saved a lot, and reinvested a small amount into Kids Co. for supplies. For instance, they're saving to buy a calendar to keep track of their jobs.
In the meantime,' they relish their new entrepre-
neurial roles. Ryan said he most likes "the money and the fact that
you can go meet the people." Aaron added, "It will help us when we get older. "He
'said if they save money now, they can use it to buy equipment or cars later.
Nicole, howe1er, said she most liked the "team-work" involved.
As for the youngest Miller, Sean liked the actual work. "I like the jobs and stuff," he said.
Though the work can be hard and result in sore muscles, Aaron said it comes with advantages. "You get muscles," he said.
They all mentioned that they enjoyed their custom-
KIDS CO. members pose for a photo in the Millers' living room on Crestview, Independence Township. From left are Ryan
ers. "They're nice," said Aaron. "They pay right there." Ryan added, "Sometimes they give us tips." The kids' parents, too, like Kids Co. "My mom's glad we're getting out and doing someÂ
thing constructive instead of staying in all summer," said Nicole.
While these youngsters may sound more responÂsible than most, it's a trait they've developed over the years.
"It took time for me to learn," said Ryan. "After my mom and dad got divorced, I had to learn to take responÂsibility ."
Nicole said, "It just comes. I watch my brother all the time and other people's kids, too."
Aaron said he gained a sense of responsibility from his parents.
Sean agreed. "My parents taught me," he said,
Miller, Sean Miller, Aaron Pursell, and Nicole Miller. (Missing are Amanda Hautamaki and Ama,nda Bone.)
adding that he helps his brother and sister with household chores.
Lest people think these kids are all work and no play, they were quick to point out that they have interests outside of their business.
Sean, who wants to be a doctor when he grows up, said, "I like to play with my friends and read books and watch TV ... , I like to learn."
. Aaron, who is considering engineering or architecÂture for a career, said, "I like to go back in the woods and build a fort, gymnastics, biking, and playing with my friends." ,
Ryan is planning to become an emergency medical technician, but in the meantime likes to ride horses and bicycles, take care of rabbits, build forts and watch TV.
Nicole has her sights set on becoming a marine biologist. When she's not working, she likes to read, ride her bicycre, swim, ride horses, Rollerblade and watch TV.

QUESTION: Wbat is the most prudent way to prepare, financially, for retirement?
ANSWER: There are two approaches to retirement planning for the homeowener. One is to sock money away in the bank and have a goodÂsized nest egg with which to buy a retirement home when the time comes. The other approach is to buy that retirement home now and have it well paid off wheJ.l retirement arrives.
Economically and emotionally, the best answer is to buy that home now. Not only will you have a good cash investment in it when you retire, buy the value of that home should keep increasing with the inflation rate.

Musicians on threshold of success with first album BY CURT MCALLISTER
Clarkston News Associate Editor
A local rock band is looking to make a dent in the music industry with the release of its ftrSt album.
The group Threshold has spent the past eight months cutting its title album, "Threshold," which consists of 10
original songs. The band fonned nearly two years ago and consists
of five area perfonners. They include: drummer Jeff Ortwine, Clarkston; bass player Tony Sere, Waterford; keyboard player Mike Katchmark, ClarkstOn; singer David Bilyeu, Holly; guitarist Frank Bartnicke, Holly.
According to Ortwine, the album is a conceptual one, with each song building on a story line.
"In a nutshell, it's a modem-day tragedy," said the 1985 Clarkston High School graduate. "It's the story of a guy who grew up emotionally cold. but gradually warms after falling in love with a girl. However, the girl is critically injured in an accident and eventually has the plug pulled on her life support system.
"Distraught, the guy kills himself," Ortwine added. "1 admit the theme is a bit depressing, but the music is
good." The album is presently in the post-production stage,
"1 admit the theme is a bit depressing, but the music is good."
Jeff Ortwine
THRESHOLD has cut its first album; which members hOpe' will gain them unlimited exposure. The group members hail from
roll band, with a style similar to established groups such as Rush, Pink Floyd and Marillion.
Threshold hosts a promotional party 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. May 14, where they'll perfonn the songs from their album. This high-tech show is at the Knights of Columbus
Wate~ord, Holly and Clarkston. They are (from left): Frank Bartnlcke, David Bilyeu, Mike Katchmark, Tony Sece and Jeff Ortwine.

with the fmished product just a couple of weeks away, Ortwine said. The group is also searching for a recording company to produce and distribute the album.

"We did this so we'd have total control over everyÂthing on the album," he said. "We didn't want an outside source telling us how to play our music."
Until they find a recording company, the group is promoting its album to local record stores and radio stations with a rock and roll format. So far, their new album has gained them air time on two radio stations, and 15 record stores have agreed to carry "Threshold."
Ortwine said the group's name came to the members by accident
"It's kind of a joke," he said, laughing. "One day, one of the guys was messing around with the threshold knob on an amplifier, and kiddingly said that 'Threshold' would be a great name for the band.
"We all thought it was a great idea, so we took it as our own," Ortwine said.
Ortwine considers Threshold a classical rock and

CHS students appear on new teen TV talk show BY CATHERINE PASSMORE
Clarkston News Staff Writer
What do you think of a talk show for teens? What would they discuss? Who 'would be the host? .
The teens at Clarkston Higb School who particiÂpated in "Talking with Tempeset" think a teen talk show IS great '. "I'd love to go again; it was cool," said sophomore
Mike Jones . . Jon~s and 20.other CHS students were part of the
audience lD the taplDg of a new teen talk show hosted by T~mpeset Bledshoe of "The Cosby Show" fame. The pdOl was taped in the CBS-affiliate WJBK-TV Channel 2, studio in February. It's scheduled to air in the fall.
Topics the teens discussed included relationships, s~x, respect and honesty. Jones spoke on camera three urnes.
"They asked me if I felt if you give someone a gift you sh<:>uld get something for it. I said you should do it to show the woman how you feel about her," said Jones.
Matt Goebel, a junior, said most of the guys at the show were ~ice. "One guy though said he thoughtsex was good exercise. There were only one or two guys like that," he said.
"Mo~t of the guys were up-to-date," interjected Jessica Doty, a sophomore.
The group's experience was different from what they'd expected. "It was a small studio," said Jones. "I thought it would be like an Oprah Winfrey studio."
Doly was impressed with the host. "She was really outgoing. She was younger than I thought."
. "She was ~~g about fixing her friends up and daung and stuff, said Jones, adding that she seemed just like those in her audience.
"Then she left in a limo," laughed Joel Sanford, a sophomore.
Sanford explained how the topics were chosen. ''There were two guests on the show. They answered our

A HELICOPTER drops load upon load of bouncing marshmallows to the ground at Clintonwood Park on Saturday. Children were
separated Into age groups, so everyone had a chance to find the fluffy treats, which could be exchanged for a prize from ,the
Bouncy treats
