Something should be done, should be done right and not hyster- ically," she said. I contacted the Washtenaw Crises Center and was told 'it's common practice' for restaurants to treat the situation like that." THE DAILY conducted a spot check of local restaurants, asking if there was an estaplished policy for dealing with victims assaulted upon leaving the restaurant. THERE IS NO set policy. Many business managers or owners have never considered the problem. Treat- ment is left to the discretion of the individuals working when an assault occurs. Louise Pietsch, of Mr. Flood's Party, recalled an incident of a woman being attacked by two men outside the front door. Pietsch pulled the woman inside, locked the door, then called the police. "It's an individual decision," she said. "You don't even think about what's good for business. It's a life and death situation." "MOST OF THE places I've worked are reputable places, where things like that (an assault) wouldn't happen," said Clint Anderson, man- ager of the Lord Fox. After considering the problem, Dan Merke, owner of the Cracked Crab concluded, "That's none of our affair. It concerns the city of Ann Arbor. I wouldn't ignore something if I looked through the window. It's difficult enough to be responsible for things on the premises, let alone something on the street," he said. David Scully, of the Ann Arbor Chamber of Commerce Hospitality Department, expressed doubt local businesses have established policies for dealing with an assault situation. "Some hotels may have policies in their operations manuals. As a general rule, we haven't done any- thing to implement the proper proce- dure." SCULLY MENTIONED the possi- bility of holding a seminar for local bpsiness people and setting up a general policy for dealing with assault cases. "We (the Chamber of Commerce) could be interested in holding a seminar on the issue; a series at a central spot, easily available to the community with qualified speakers to discuss the problem. We could develop a program to deal with this. We should be willing to talk about it. We'd take it very seriously," he stated. "Most people would feel they have a responsibility for their guests and for the general public. As a general rule we are concerned with issues and social problems." "I was so sickened and angry that these kind of things happened - that she was treated that way," Warren said. "The restaurant management could have gotten on the phone and called right away. As it was, she was all set to drive herself home - sh4ing from head to toe and after two drinks:" he young ded help. cause she WARREN explained her actions and her subsequent concern that HOMEWORK GETTING YOU DOWN? TAKE A BREAK READ THE DAILY! Councilman quits for mayorship (Continued from Page 1) BELCHER DOES not feel that his four years were wasted, though. "I'm very proud of the fact that we've cut down city employment. It was 1299 when I came on board and now it's 1050. I think we've restructured the ad- ministrative overhead that I thought was top-heavy when I came in. I'm happy that we've been able to beef up our inspection code, and also that we've been able to put more money in the budget for code inspection. We've also put a lot of money into our fire department which needed upgrading - horribly.

"I'M DAMN critical and I'm going to continue to be critical of AATA. Nothing gets me more upset then to have someone say that the panacea of our problems is going to be mass tran- sit." Belcher said. "It's only going to be mass transit when you have a system that will operate and that people will trust. "There's a great misconception that CDBG is only for social services. But the fact is that they're HUD, not HEW grants. Ann Arbor is one of only two cities (the other is Madison, Wisc.) in the whole country that spends the amount of money they spend out of their physical development funds for services," he said. "I think we still can give money to daycare centers, but it has to be spent responsibly. Just because you run a daycare center doesn't mean that you're the apple pie motherhood and flag of 1950. We're going to question it, and you better have a damn tight ship PYRAMIDS PLANNED NEW YORK (AP) - Pyramid- shape recording studios will be built in Malibu, Calif., it has been an- nounced here. The reason is a belief that to achieve the best recorded sound, no two opposite walls should be the same. The new studio will consist of a giant pyramid with three smaller pyramids inside, each a recording studio measuring 2,500 feet. Interior wall construction will alternate fiber- glass squares with flat surfaces, each 16 inches square. The announcement was made by Roy Cicala, president of the Record Plant here.

FOR NOW, though, Belcher has his sights set on nothing any further away than city hall. "I love politics, but I wouldn't like to do it full-time because then I wouldn't have time to do all the other things I like to do. I couldn't think of more drudgery than being a Congressman in Washington, constan- tly running for office every 24 months and being one of 435 people," he said, "You go in and you fight every week and sometimes you get lost.
