Lalonde

Mogdis faces Fifth Ward primary

aces race
(Continued from Page 1)
before he' ran unsuccessfully as a
Republican and twice as a Demo-
crat.',
This year, he refers t4 himself
as an "independent Democrat,"
saying "no one should be bound
to vote simply because of his
party affiliation."
Definitely against the proposed
city income tax which will also
come up for an advisory vote on
the Feb. 21 ballot, Lalonde believes
that "better spending is the solu-
tion.'
"City Hall doesn't realize how
hard some people work for their
money," he adds.
Lalonde cites crime as a major
issue in this year's campaign.
"The best method to reduce crime
is to create an environment where
understanding and justice are the
order of the day."
"Many injustices exist today,"
says Lalonde. "City Hall is not
trying to understand all types of
people." Lalonde lists racial pre-
judice - "not only between black
and white, but also among whites
of different nationalities"-and un-
fairness in' employment as two ma-
jor "injustices."
Employed by the Wedemeyer
Electronic Supply Co. as manager
of the shipping department, - La-
londe lives at 2238 Dexter with his
wife and daughter.
He admits he does not have "a
big education," but says "there
is a need for fair play in local
politics, and that is the best edu-
cation one can get."

(Continued from Page 1)
realistic. "We must take a look at
city growth," he says, and adds,'
"it must be restricted and con-
trolled more than before."
The next issue, which Mogdis
believes is definitely related to
city growth, is the financing of
city government. On this issue
Mogdis feels that "it is critical
to move to a new tax base," and
as a result he supports the pro-
posed city income tax.
Concerning crime, Mogdis says
that "the Ann Arbor city police
should be responsible and take
the lead in crime protection for
the city," as opposed to the Sher-
iff's department doing so.
"Polarization within the com-
munity," Mogdis says, is a prob-
lem which needs correction. He
comments that he is "afraid that
only the ultra-conservative and
ultra-radical views are being
heard," and that "others' posi-
tions .are not being factored -into
the solution." Mogdis says that in
this area, "public officials need
to initiate involvement."
As one means of "initiating in-
volvement," Mogdis says that if
he is elected he will send a letter
to his constituencies indicating his
phone number and willingness to
listen to all viewpoints. Mogdis
also hopes to initiate same type
of questionnaire to aid in the in-
volvement of all people in govern-
ment.
Mogdis says that he has "no
intention of voting simply be-
cause of party affiliation." And
he continues saying that "part of
the problem of the existing po-
larization within the community

is because of such decision mak-
ing." He claims he will "value
each issue on its own merits."
Employed by the Bendix Corp.,
Aerospace Systems Division, Mog-
dis, 30, lives with his wife at 942
Fountain. He attended the Uni-

versity, Northwestern University,
the University of Maryland, and
the Defense Language School.
Mogdis is a Democratic pre-
cinct chairman and has been a
delegate to county and state con-
ventions.

tirely up to the individual
teachers.
Classes are held wherever
room can be found-usually the
Student Activities Bldg., the
Union, or private homes.
Because of this, as the Wo-
men's Community School has
evolved members of the school
have felt the need for a Femi-
nist House to house their ac-
tivities.
"For months and months
we've tried to plan events, we
just needed a center. There was
no place we could hold them

without a hassle," she says.
The Feminist House will be
partially financed by the earn-
ings from the speaker's forum
scheduled at the Power Center.
Gloria Steinem, journalist
and editor of the new women's
magazine, Ms., and Margaret
Sloan, of Chicago's Operation
Breadbasket, a leader in the
movement for the repeal of
abortion laws in Illinois, will be
speaking.
The Feminist House will re-
ceive an expected $1,000 finan-
cial boost from this event. The
house will also be financed in
the future.. through bucket
drives, dances, bake sales, and
other projects.
As yet, the women have not
found a permanent center for
their projects. As one member
expressed hopefully, "We're
still looking."
Many people believe that
drugs offer an oppotunity for
greater self understanding; for
others, drugs bring conflict and
pain. Student Services Counsel-
ing Office and the Mental
Health Clinic are forming a
group where people can talk
about their drug experiences,
share -anxieties and concerns,
and work toward some realistic
understanding of both the po-
tential benefits and potential
harm that can come from drug
use.
if you are interested in
joining such o group please

Assail hiring practices

The University's affirmative ac-
tion plan also came under fire last
December when PROBE, a campus
women's group, forwarded a com-
plaint to the Department of
de Larrocha
Appearing at Hill Aud. this Fri-
day is Alicia de Larrocha, one
of the great pianists of our
times.

studies at the age of four and
went on to win the Grand Prix
du Disque and the Paderewski
Memorial Medal. She is now a
director of the Marshall Aca-
demy in Barcelona.,
The tiny Spanish pianist has
earned great acclaim through-
out the country and the world
for her sensitivity and subtle
color that she adds to her per-
formance.

(HEW). The complaint charged
that the University's goals and
timetables were "inadequate," and
that the University had failed to
meet "even those deficient goals."
A previous complaint by PROBE
originally brought HEW to cam--
pus in fall of 1970. At that time
HEW demanded that the Univer-
sity end its discriminatory hiring
practices, and subsequently with-
held an estimated $3 million in
federal contracts until the Uni-
versity developed an affirmaaive
action program.
The program was adopted offic-
ially by the University last Jan-
uary, although H E W has not
officially approved it to date.
Last week the University agreed
to give HEW detailed personnel
data as a prerequisite for approval
of its affirmative action program.

jectivity does not necessarily im-
ply neutrality. He said that he is
consistently objective in gathering
material for his columns, and only
then takes a stance on an issue.
The fiery von Hoffman cited
surveys as being particularly help-
ful to the media in their gathering
of accurate information, since they
"at leasttry" to be objective and
to give the reader a sense of what
is happening in the community
rather than in "officialdom."
He warned, however, that a re-
porter cannot stay totally unin-
volved in a story, "even if he stays
behind that 2000-pound pencil call-
ed a television."
Von Hoffman added that all re-
porters have a "selective percep-
tion" which allows them to include
only the facts they themselves
consider important.
Although he holds strong politi-
cal views himself, von Hoffman
said he is resigned to the fact that
he can only write about the world
and not change it. He encouraged
any potential .journalists in the
audience to do the same.
"You're not running the world,
you're trying to figure it out," he
said.
