described Tiger and Harwell
fanatic. "Who else can call
the games?
"I've heard Ernie ever
since I listened to my first
game as a little kid. I watch
every game on TV or listen
to every game on the radio.
Even when I lived in Israel
last year, I read the paper
every morning to see how
the Tigers did."

Harwell "is the best part of
the game," said Ephraim
Allon, 11, of Oak Park. An-
other fifth-grader, Yudi
Hochheiser, said he loves
listening to Harwell, though
he's not a Tigers fan. "He
makes it like you're at the
game when you're at home."
And, added 11-year-old Eli
Sigler of Oak Park, "Most of
the time, I turn off the sound
on the television and listen"
to Harwell's broadcasts.
Roberta Feldman of Birm-
ingham, picking up son Ben-
jamin at the United Hebrew
Schools nursery, said she
didn't want to see either
Harwell or Tiger Stadium
go.
"Detroit needs Tiger
Stadium, what with the
drugs and all that's going
on. What's going to draw you
to downtown if there's no
Tiger Stadium? Look what
the World Series did for
Detroit."
"I think Schembechler's
ego couldn't handle" having
a person of Harwell's stature
around, said Elaine Block-
Victor of West Bloomfield,
who was lunching at Deli
Unique in Bingham Farms.
"Monaghan's a jerk," add-
ed her friend, Mar jie Ziff of
Southfield. "He doesn't care
about Detroit. All he cares
about is Ann Arbor."
Deli Unique waitperson
Debbie Cohen said she'd
heard a lot of negative reac-
tion Thursday from
customers. "The fans are
what makes the game.
Without the fans, there's no
team."
She and 14 other
employees sent a letter to
Monaghan and Domino's
Pizza saying they would
boycott the pizzas and Tiger
games until Harwell is
reinstated.
Another boycott got a
quick response.
Businessman Paul Benz-
man, owner of Crazy Benzy's
in Livonia, received a FAX
letter from RPM Pizza, Inc.,
owner of 97 Detroit-area
Domino's stores, the day
after starting a Domino's
boycott.
RPM said the boycott was

and a man of similar cut —
Geroge Kell — to keep our
worlds in perspective.
But that's not good
enough for Bo
Schembechler, at least not
anymore. Maybe Bo's lost
perspective. The Tigers
aren't Wolverine football.
Three yards and a cloud of
dust right up the gut
whether they like it or not
might be good policy
against Woody Hayes and
Ohio State. But it doesn't
work well for the national
pasttime.
It doesn't work well for
those of us who would like
to hang on to our
memories, to Tiger
Stadium, to the perennial
promise of next season, to
Ernie Harwell. Maybe the
stadium and Ernie don't fit
the modern mold — the
high-tech plastic,
homogenized stadiums,
high-priced ballplayers and
high-priced tickets to pay
for all that modern
baseball has become.
Well, we don't have to
think about it right now
because we'll have our own
Hall of Fame broadcaster
for one more season, one
last hurrah.
No, I won't miss Ernie
until February 1992. It will
be then that the Tigers'
"new directions" an-
nouncer — whoever he or
she will be — will slide
behind the mike to open
the Tigers' exhibition sea-
son. But it won't be the
same.
You see, when I hear that
golden voice this February,
as I have every February
the last 31 years, the snow
and cold outside melt away.
The clouds lift and the day
brightens and I know that
spring is not far behind.
The voice of Ernie Harwell
holds that magic.
