Collins appeals Defense attorneys yesterday asked the Michigan Court of Appeals to overturn the conviction of John Norman Collins, convicted of murdering an Eastern Michigan University co-ed in July, 1969. Attorneys claimed Collins' case had been decided in the press before it ever came to trial. The co-ed Collins was convicted of slaying was one of seven young women killed in the area over a two-year period. Fuller Bridge opening The Fuller St. Bridge will be reopened Oct. 14, only four and one-half weeks behind schedule. City Administrator Guy Larcom promised City Council Monday night that the bridge's recon- struction is at last entering its final stages. Booze note ADRIAN - If you really dig screwdrivers, grab a straw and some orange juice and head for nearby Allens Lake. It seems several thousand gallons of Vodka were dumped into the small lake Monday when a semi-truck loaded with bottles of the brew overturned while rounding a corner on U.S. 12. The driver, it was reported, was neither hurt nor overcome by the fumes. Local fish had no comment.

Dope notes An anonymous caller informed us around 2 a.m. yesterday that Judge Sandorf Elden - who last week struck down the $5 fine provision of the city's marijuana ordinance - had been "re- taliated against." A quick check at Elden's Northwest side mansion revealed cute little red and green marijuana plants painted on his driveway ... and all over his house, too . . . and yet another anonymous source reports that more "retaliation" will be launched, this one a Diag smoke-in on Friday, Oct. 13 ... . in other dope news, local police agencies were busy Monday night. A raiding party of city detectives, sheriff's deputies and other assorted police cruched an alleged dope pad on Traver Rd. on the outskirts of the city, arrested two people and confis- cated peyote, hash, grass and cocaine. The bust was initiated by ansundercover agent. Exporting pollution General Motors seems to have found yet another way to export pollution. The giant car-maker announced Monday that 1,113 autos which do not meet U.S. emission control standards be- cause they were left unfinished during a strike this summer will be sold in Canada. Canadian pollution standards will not go info effect until Nov. 1, and do not affect the GM cars. GOP/God coalition As if Richard Nixon weren't enough competition, some sourc- es now claim that George McGovern must also contend with the wrath of God. At a rock-and-roll voter registration concert in Milwaukee featuring Tricia Nixon Cox yesterday, one of the performers predicted a GOP victory because "God is on our side." Is there no hope?

Oops. Goofed again In last Friday's Daily, a story on the "morning-after pill" car- ried a headline that read: "Morning-after pill called safe/no cancer link." The headline was inaccurate as there is evidence in- dicating there is a connection betweer the diethylstilbestrol (DES) contained in the pills and cancer. The article also used the words "cancer scare" in describing recent attacks on this pill in "herself" magazine. That word choice was unfortunate as ques- tions do exist over this relationship . . . also, The Daily reported yesterday that Conservative Party State Representative candi- date Alan Harris said he had no chance of winning the election. Harris denies ever having made such a statement. HRP By CHRIS PARKS Zolton F e r e n c y, a founding member of the statewide Human Rights Party (HRP), said yes- terday he acted as an interme- diary in a $100 contribution to the campaign fund of attorney Perry Bullard, Democratic op- ponent of an HRP member for State Representative in this fall's general election. Ferency is HRP's current can- didate for the state supreme court. He spoke at a press confer- ence called to deny statements by Bullard that Ferency had personally contributed to his campaign. According to Ferency - who was the Democratic Party's gub- ernatorial candidate in 1966 be- fore leaving the party to help Ferency sent funds to, Dem found HRP-the $100 donation was not actually a campaign con- tribution but a gift to offset legal costs incurred by Bullard, when he brought a lawsuit over the summer. The lawsuit-one supported by several lobbyists in the state capitol - was intended to force state senators to stand for re- election this fall because of the a 11 e g e d malapportionment of their districts. The money, Ferency said, came from persons* in Lansing who had supported the suit. None of the money involved was his own, Ferency asserted. He refused to disclose the identity of any of the donors who he said asked to remain anony- mous. Ferency said that the idea of making out the check to Bul- lard's campaign had been his own. "It wasn't really a campaign contribution," Ferency explained "It was just that it came at a time when Bullard was - a candi- date. It occured to me that he might be able to use the money best in his campaign." With his check, Ferency had included a personal handwritten' note which read: "Dear Perry: Enclosed, please find a modest contribution col- lected from people interested in your campaign." The note was signed "Z" and written on Ferency's personal letterhead. Some question has been raised as to whether Ferency's actions violated state statutes barring anonymous contributions. Ferency denied that his actions were illegal. Section 9.17 of the state elec- tion code states that no person shall contribute to a campaign, in any other name than that of the person who in truth supplied such money." Ferency claimed that since the idea to donate the money to Bullard's campaign was his own, he had not broken this section of the election code. County Prosecutor William Del- hey said yesterday that an action such as Ferency's might "come close to a violation." He added that he would have to study case law more closely before being certain that a statute had been broken.
