HOLESALE
Ambulance personnel carry residents from Prentis Manor
the Electronic Data Systems
building across Lahser from
Prentis Manor to take the resi-
dents there.
With leaking gas and an arc-
ing electric line, Charette had
FINE BATH, KITCHEN, AND DOOR HARD WARE called for local ambulance
crews to be standing by. Ten-
to-12 vehicles from Suburban
Ambulance and five Southfield
Fire Department life support
units were used to shuttle 78 of
the 91 Prentis residents across
the street. Thirteen of the more
frail residents were kept in
rooms at the south end of Pre-
ntis Manor.
"We took a chance in moving
these people," Charette said,
"but it was the safest thing to
do." He said moving them to a
nearby building allowed for
easier control of medication
and dietary needs.
The evacuation was com-
pleted between 10 a.m. and
10:30, and the residents were
returned to Prentis at 2:30
p.m., using the ambulance
crews and school and SEMTA
buses equipped with chairlifts.
No estimate of the cost of the
evacuation was available, but
Southfield will pay the bill,
Charette said.

Classes Cut
Electrical problems Sunday
morning in the neighborhood
of Cong. Beth Achim forced the
cancellation of United Hebrew
School classes in the building.
Children in an honors class
which meets from 9 a.m. to 1

duced power hampered light-
ing and forced the heat to be
shut down at 10 a.m. Regular
classes at 11 a.m. were can-
celed.
No other events were
scheduled in the building that
day and normal power was re-
stored at 1:30 p.m.

fered no ill effects from the
evacuation. "A few were con-
fused," she said, "but most
were wonderful." Food for resi-
dents and 42 staff was brought
in from the Home For Aged's
Borman Hall in Detroit.
Mittelman credited the fire
department for a "sensitive
and caring" effort, and said her
own staff "pulled together" and
worked well in the emergency.
"That's why nobody was hurt,"
she said.

life in Israel among the 1,200
respondents and a decline in
esteem for the unity coalition
government, according to an
analysis of the results
published in Davar last week
by the pollsters, Hanoch and
Rafi Smith.
The father-and-son team of
researchers, whose polls com-

found that large majorities
perceived the government to
be doing a better job hand-

sion over Israel's involvement
in the U.S. arms shipments to
Iran.
