Joe Alkateeb's four-year
term.
Sowerby, an attorney ap-
pointed to a council seat in
April after serving on the
city's parks and recreation
board and zoning appeals
board, said ethics is the most
important issue.
Sowerby's opponents,
Nancy Bates, 56, an aide to
state representative Jan
Dolen, and Herbert Liner,
69, an Eastern Michigan
Better Business Bureau
automotive arbitrator, agree
that ethics is a significant
concern.
Bates wants council
members to provide better
leadership, while Liner
wants the city to create an
ethics committee to "assure
proper ethical behavior" for
city officials.
In Southfield, maintaining
city services and preserving
neighborhoods are the big-
gest issues facing voters.
Seven candidates are vying
for four seats in Southfield.
The top three candidates win
four-year council terms, and
the person with the fourth
highest tally gets a two-year
term.
"I want to maintain
Southfield as a good, safe,
strong community," said in-
cumbent Peter J. Christano,
48, the chief executive offi-
cer of North American
Medical Corp. He spent 12
years as a Southfield city
administrator and eight
years on council.
Incumbents Suzanne
Goldstein and Steve Hurite,
66, believe the city must
maintain its services and
preserve neighborhoods.
Goldstein is a part-time
travel agent and eight-year
council member. Hurite is
an Irvin Automotive engi-
neer and sales manager and
18-year council member.
Preserving neighborhoods
from commercial growth and
retaining service levels nor-
th and south of the new 1-696
freeway concern the four
challengers: James
Schuster, 43, an attorney;
Arrissie D. Evans, 37, an
American Telephone and
Telegraph Co. assistant

manager; Richard A. Bloom,
38, an insurance salesman,
and Denise Alexander, 37,
an attorney.
In other Southfield elec-
tions, Donald F. Fracassi is
unopposed for mayor and
Pat Flannery is unopposed
for city clerk. Incumbent
Roman J. Gronkowski and
Thomas F. Stallworth III are
running for treasurer.
In Farmington, seven can-
didates are running for three
seats. Arnold T. Campbell,
39, is a Ford Motor Co. pro-
duct analyst, while Richard
Tupper, 56, owns Tupper As-
sociates. Both are four-year
council members. Shirley V.
Richardson, 52, does vol-
unteer work and is a three-
year council member.
Challenging the in-
cumbents are: John Thomas
Kenney, 43, a General Dy-
namics industrial waste
water treatment engineer;
Robert R Walker, 37, a Ford
Motor Co. engineer super-
visor; Joanne McShane, 43,
a Horace Mann Insurance
Co. account representative
and Joanne Fellenberg.
Both Farmington and
Farmington Hills residents
will vote on proposals to
spend $14.5 million to con-
struct and a 1.5 mill
operating levy for a new
library.
In Huntington Woods,
three candidates are runn-
ing for two commissioner
terms. Eight-year incum-
bent Gilda Z. Jacobs, 40, is
the Jewish Association for
Retarded Citizens de-
velopmental coordinator. In-
cumbent Gordon L. Hassig,
69, is the president of Wayne
Hale Dodds Co. and 12-year
commission member.
Challenger Donna M.
Skelcy, 32, is an attorney.
In Oak Park, four can-
didates seek two seats. In-
cumbents Louis Demas, 64,
and Arthur Frohlich, 69, are
running against Minerva D.
Freeman, 39, and Irwin
Lorber, 54.
Incumbent Charlotte M.
Rothstein, 64, and Herschel
H. Goldstein, 47, are runn-
ing for a two-year mayoral
term.

School Districts Urge
Support Of Proposals

outhfield school offi-
cials are urging
residents to vote
Tuesday for Proposal A,
which would raise sales
taxes to finance educational
programs.

Proposal A, which calls for
a sales tax hike from 4 per-
cent to 4.5 percent and is ex-
pected to raise $400 million
for Michigan students,
would not hurt or help the
district because revenue
stems from property taxes,
not state aid, said Ken Siver,
school district spokesman.
But, Siver said, Proposal B,
