A
bout two years after
leaving Detroit,
sportscaster Stu
Klitenic has turned up at the
ABC-TV affiliate in Atlanta.
But the kinetic Klitenic,
who spent six years on
Channels 2 and 7, says he
still comes back to Detroit
for visits — one as recently
as last week.
And apparently, some
viewers are unaware that
he's no longer' on Detroit
television. "People see me at
the airport and they say,
`Hey, Stu, you going out on a
story?' "
Klitenic, who left WXYZ-
TV over what he calls
"money hassles," admitted
to missing the Motor City.
He hinted that if he had to
do things all over again, he
might have done them
differently.
"I learned that money is
not the source of motivation
for everything. Happiness is
what it's all about," he said.
The Jewish News profiled
Klitenic three years ago in
Stu Klitenic:
Settling down?
an article called "Hands 7,"
a reference to both his place
of employment and his
animated gesticulations.
He worked in St. Louis at
the ABC affiliate after leav-
ing Detroit. In Atlanta,
Klitenic is trying to tone
down the wild performances
that distracted many of his
viewers in the past.
"I'm ready to settle down,"
said Klitenic, now 34 years
old. "I'm worried, I think I'm
actually maturing." CI
Race Car Driver
Revved By '67 War
JULIE FREESTONE
Special to The Jewish News
San Francisco — A San
Francisco woman, who
believes she is the only
Jewish female amateur race
car driver in her class, says
the 1967 Six-Day War in-
spired her.
Arli Goldberg, 36, was a
high-school student in
Switzerland in 1967. Then
the war changed her life.
"Until then, the history of
the Jews always struck me
as being 'a victim' — it
wasn't exactly negative, but
it was more like you were
isolated. And having been
brought up culturally but
not religiously Jewish, I had
no real positive role
models."
Goldberg, who also is a
health professional, said
that when the war broke out,
she received an entirely
different message. "The
message was: 'If you want to
do something against the

odds, no matter how the
world looks at you, you can
do it.' Israel did it and they
survived. It became the way
I started running my life. I
don't take no for an answer."
That tenacity eventually
led Goldberg to her hobby.
In 1986, Goldberg went to
a driving school to learn
defensive driving. "I tended
to drive too fast and decided
that if I were going to keep
doing that, I ought to learn
to control the car better."
In fact, back in Chicago
when she was growing up,
Goldberg's father had sent
her to a school to learn to
drive safely on ice.
As an adult, however,
Goldberg decided the simple
defensive course wasn't
enough, and signed up for an
advanced course — one that
involved driving a single-
seat Formula car.
"It was fun," said
Goldberg. "It was even ad-
dictive. I began to wonder
how good I could get."
Although Goldberg didn't
go to her first race until the
summer of 1986, she already
was exploring whether to
buy her own race car.
