said, "and we finish about
5:30, sometimes six o'clock.
"We study Jewish subjects
all morning," Amy explain-
ed, "then we study secular
subjects in the afternoon."
"Do you play sports?" an-
other student asked.
"We have a basketball
team, but we're one and
four," Jamie said. "Our high
school only has 70 students,"
he explained, "so if we had
more kids, we'd have more
team sports."
Some students gasped.
Milford High School has
several thousand students.
"What do you do for fun?"
one Milford student wanted
to know.
"We probably do the same
kind of things you do," Amy
said, laughing a little. "You
know, we go bowling, go to
movies, go to the mall, hang
out with friends."
Emily Ebert, 15, of
Milford, said she and the
other students in her class
have little to no contact with
Jews. "There aren't many
Jews that live in Milford, so

a lot of us have never been
exposed to them," Emily
said. "A lot of us didn't real-
ize there was a difference, or
if we did, we thought the dif-
ference was too big."
Nathan Miller, 15, the son
of a Methodist minister,
didn't realize Jews took
their religion so seriously. "I
didn't realize their cur-
riculum was so hard. I have
a lot more respect for them,"
he said. "Now, I'm really
curious to visit their school."
The students from Akiva
enjoyed their trip to Milford.
"I think it was important for
them to see us and for us to
see them," Danny said. "We
go to school all day with re-
ligious kids and live around
a lot of religious people, so it
was a new experience for us
too."
Amy thought it was inter-
esting to hear what the
Milford students thought of
Jewish people and their
customs. "I just hope we
cleared up any misconcep-
tions they might have," she
said.

acomb County Pros-
ecutor Carl Marl-
inga this week said
politicians should put aside
ideologies and work together
to fix the state's weak busi-
ness climate.
Speaking Monday in
Southfield at a meeting of
the Jewish Federation's
Economic Forum, Mr. Marl-
inga called crime and the
economy a "seamless web"
and said the state's leaders
must correct economic hard-
ships and crime at the same
time.
"We have to get tough
about these problems and
make some changes," Mr.
Marlinga said. "We need to
blend the best of both (Dem-
ocratic and Republican) sets
of thinking."
Some Democratic leaders
in the state have labeled Mr.
Marlinga a possible guber-
natorial candidate. Others
said it is too early to specu-
late.
Mr. Marlinga, an officer of
the Michigan Democratic
Party and an executive
council member of the Dem-
ocratic Lawyers of Michigan,
said he has not made any
decisions about running for
governor.
He was quick to criticize
Gov. John Engler, condemn-

ing his massive budget cuts
for the arts and his opposi-
tion to opening three al-
ready-constructed prisons •
that would house 1,000
criminals.
Gov. Engler, he added,
"has really stopped being
practical."
In addition, he said Mr.
Engler, a Republican, and
Detroit Mayor Coleman
Young, a Democrat, are
blinded by their respective
ideologies.
He said Mayor Young is
committed to only half the
problem — the economy.
But, Mr. Marlinga said,
Mayor Young needs to think
