In 1976, the Eneirgy Research and Development Administration calculated that the use of solar power for heating and hot water would be cheaper than electricity in every part of the United States with the exception of the Pacific Northwest, which utilizes its abundant water supplies for power. NATIONAL SUN DAY, as proclaimied by the U.S. Senate, is May 3. The celebration will begin with a sunrise observance from the peak of Cadillac Mountain, Maine, where the Sun's rays first touch the United States, and will continue throughout the nation with concerts, fairs and rallies to be held in various cities. (Continued from Page 1i McCollough, the polished state senator from Dearborn, who leaves a lingering sweet scent of his cologne in each handshake-is clearly the more conservative of the two. "I think I bring to the race a solid background and solid experience," McCollough said of his eight years of Senate experience. "The best thing that can happen to Bill Milliken and the Republicans is their defeat." ALTHOUGH BOTH favor the with- drawal of investments from South Africa and the development of solar energy rather than nuclear power, they' remain divided on the development of the state's industry. "We have three major industries in the State of Michigan-industry, tourism and agriculture," Ferency said. He dislikes giving tax breaks to large private industries, especially to General Motors and the Ford Motor Company to locate more plants in the state. Both companies recently recor- ded record profits. "I don't see any great evil in the word, 'corporation,"' McCollough countered. "I think their programs would have been beneficial to Michigan." FERENCY SAID a state-owned railroad like the Ann Arbor Railroad would be more beneficial in developing tourism than other forms of mass tran- sportation. "Our railroad should be running 90 to 120 miles an hour, not 30," Ferency said, comparing it to trainlines in other states. "I don't know why anyone would want to spend a weekend in Ohio or In- diana." Ferency added that since only $3.8 milion in funds has been devoted to the railway systems, both tourism and public transit suffer. McCollough said more than that sum was spent on railroad development this year. "Look at the budget, Pat," Ferency told McCollough. "LET'S RECOGNIZE we are in com- petition with the southern states," Mc- Colough quickly continued. "Business tax loans lost credit rating under the Milliken administration." On DNA reserach, Ferency said he hoped that the researchers would be careful with their practice and "not to turn anything loose until their damn sure of what they got." "I don't know enough about DNA researchatkthis time," McCollough said. McCOLLOUGH SAID he favored the practice of public aid for private schools. "I rather give the money directly to the students and let them decide (whether to go to public or private schools)," McCollough said. Ferency said as long as there was a need for public school aid, private school funding should be ruled out. "I don't think the public should be used to support private enterprise," Ferency said. "Anyone, can go to a public school." "We can't keep private schools open, only private schoolscan keep private schools open," he added. For A Great Evening Of Fun. . . Come To BIMBOIS!
