Panel discusses rising
city growth problems
By GLORIA SMITH
About 150 local citizens and University students met last
night with City Administrator Guy Larcom and Chamber
of Commerce leader William Bott to discuss a "No-Growth
Policy for Ann Arbor."
The panel discussion and debate was sponsored by the
Zero Population Growth, an organization which is working
to reduce the present number of children per family, change
abortion laws, and change adoption policies.
At the meeting, citizens voiced their opinion that the
"cancerous and uncontrolled growth of Ann Arbor must be
stopped, not accommodated."
However, the real issue seemed to be the fact, said one

i FNACT
speech
By CHARLEEN COOK
Toxicology Prof. Paul Hartog
told a sparsely attended lecture
last night that the emphasis on
problems with ptsticides has been
misplaced.
In an ENACT-sponsored pro-
gram on "Problems Real and Ima-
gined with Pesticides," Hartog
stated that problems are receiving
inadequate priorities.
Hartog said one of the imagined
problems is in the concern for
DDT's effects on algae photosyn-
thesis in the ocean. He pointed
out that theamount of DDT in the
ocean is one part per trillion or
lower, and that the photosynthesis
of some species were not affect-
Another imagined problem ac-
cording to Hartog, is that there
is DDT in human body fat. He
said that while there were some
cases of liver cancer in animals
that have been connected to DDT,
no such cases were found in hu-
mans.

ward black people. Roraback,
probed slowly and at.length into
the perspective juror's attitudes.
Often she paused for long periods
of silence between questions as she
paced up and down behind the
defense table.
After more than an hour of
questions by Roraback, Garry
took over, asking the prospective
juror if he "really, truly beieved"
that the two Black Panther de-
fendents were innocent until prov-
en otherwise. During this ques-
tion the juror admitted to the
court that he considered the grand
jury indictments against Seale and
Huggins as an indication of an
element of their guilt.
"They are on trial for some-
thing, there must be something
there, something to it," the man
told Garry.
At this point,; Garry and Rora-
back jointly challenged the pros-
pective juror "for cause." Mulvery
'enied their challenge without
explanation.
Markle then announced t h a t]

man, that "citizens want to be
included in the formation of
policies."
"We want to have the infor-
mation base available to us," an-
other man said.
"The community never shows
an overwhelming support until its
too damned late," Bott responded.
"Where are the citizens at the
conceptual stage?" Larcom added.
But that is the problem, ex-
plained one woman, who identified
herself as being a member of the
County Planning Commission. She
cited sitting through numerous
meetings without the right to say
anything of consequence.
One good example of the citi-
zens' feelings being ignored is the
Hudson's shopping center which
is now in the planning stages, ac-
cording to one audience member.
Another audience member feels
that "we need a now-growth poli-
cy in Ann Arbor."
"We grew up with the American
ideal of growth," she said. "Now
it's all shifted."
"We grew up with the American
ideal of growth," she said. "Now
it's all shifted."
"It is just not true that not to
grow is not to change," she added.
"You don't progress by increasing
the growth to an unmanagable
stage."
"I wish that our parents had
raised the questions that we are
now raising," Bott said. "Then to-
day we would not just be raising
them, we would be solving them."
Larcom added, "It is a mistake
to close our eyes on growth."

However, he said that the work-
ers in the U.S. did not carry much
potential for revolution as a class
at the moment, but that inherent
in capitalism was uneven distri-
bution of wealth, which would
eventually lead to revolution and
the formation of a socialist state.
"Capitalists are casting the
worker on the junkpile of society,
in the gutter of society," he said.

"hard-hat" workers, saying t h a t
they were the black man's class
brothers, and that it was the re-
volutionary's duty to educate
them.
He gave a brief history of the
thought of the Black Panthera
Party. According to Newton, first
the group started in October of
1966 as a Black Nationalist organ-
ization. They then moved to Re-
volutionary Nationalism, national-
ism mixed with socialism. The
groupmfinallybecame Interna-
tionalists, and adopted strict
Marxist-Leninist philosophy. Then
they made the switch to their pre-
sent theory of Inter-communal-
ism.
Newton noted that much of the
time revolutionary forces did not
realize their power because they
were unconscious or asleep. He
emphasized the need to first be-
come "conscious of our surround-
ings before we can work to
change them."
He also stressed the importance
of first establishing a survival pro-
gram.
"If we don't have a survival pro-
gram pending revolution, there will
be no revolution because we will
have genocide," Newton said.
The Panther's survival program,
he noted, included health clinics
and food for children because
"damaged brains bring damaged
ideas."

One problem Hartog said has
been de-emphasized is the word-
H ing of pesticide labels. "It takes a
college graduate to read that label
and make sense of it," he said,
claiming that such labels often!

The /ampyridae beetle family.
Delight of small boys. Biological,

raw material for another Du Pont
innovation.
Luciferase, an enzymatic protein
with intriguing properties, obtain-
able only from fireflies. Luciferin,
an organic molecule also found in
fireflies, but synthesizable. Adeno-
sine triphosphate (ATP), a common
energy-yielding substance found in
all living cells..
Those are the three main ingre-
dients in /ampyridae's love light.
And because ATP is common to all

artificial glow by mixing luciferin
and luciferase wherever life is
present.
Noting that phenomenon, Du Pont
scientists and engineers went on
to develop it into a practical ana-
lytical system. Correlating the in-
tensity of the artificial "glow" with
the amount of ATP present in
bacteria, they designed a means of
measuring the reaction.
The result is the luminescence
biometer-the first really basic im-
provement in bacteria-counting
methods since the time of Louis
Pasteur. Rather than waiting days
for a culture to demonstrate growth
density, a doctor or technician can

now get a digital readout of bacteria
concentration in a matterof minutes.
Other potentially lifesaving uses
for the biometer are being sug-
gested every day-such as diagnos-
ing metabolic rates, enzyme de-
ficiencies and nerve damage..
Innovation-applying the known
to discover the unknown, inventing
new materials and putting them to
work, using research and engineer-
ing to create the ideas and products
of the future-this is the venture
