stated.
Though th tree planting had of­
ficially been cancelled, a mall
crowd of people gathered unaware
of the cancellation. It was decided to
plant an arrangement of flowers in
front of the Monterey Motel in
memory of the victims.
Two young people in the group
planted th flowers. And then the
crowd began to disperse. However, a
something that we have to do
together, Barfield said.
Detroit resident Kenneth
Snodgrass, was angered by the out­
burst from the Highland Par resi­
dents. "I think it is a tragedy that
these people think it is a Highland
Par problem. You don't tell a per­
son not to be concerned when
another person has lost their life. I've
always shopped in Highland Par
and supported it economically. So
how can they tell me that it is not my
problem," Snodgrass stated.
Despi te the difference in
opinion, SOSAD will continue their
tree planting throughout the Metro
Detroi t Area, according to Barfield.
"The purpo e of planting a tree
after someone h been killed,' to
help the survivors and others focus
on life. A tree represents life. People
need to see ome sign of life. We are
still going to plant trees for people
that have been killed." Barfield COD­
cluded.

The urinary tract is the name of the y tern that rid the body of wa te
material by way of the urine. The urinary tract is made up of the kidneys,
urinary bladder, ureter (tube connecting kidney and bladder), and
urethra (tube connecting the bladder and outside the body). Since the
urinary tract i open to outside the body, bacteria and other organisms
can enter the urinary tract and cause infection . Bacteria associated with
the e infection include E. coli, Proteu , Klebsiella, P udomonas, and
Staphylococcu . .
Symptom of urinary tract infection include frequent urination and
burning/painful en at ion when urinating. Infection of the bladder (cysti-.
tis), urethra urethritis), and kidney (pyelonephriti ) are reported to occur in
�bout 10 percent of the population. One report indicates th t 20 percent of
all antibiotic pre cription written are for urinary tract infections.
