IV 13 arraigned on soliciting charges in city massage parlor crackdown Bsy DENNISi SABO~ 'This is a situation that has been going on for some time now. - Police Chief Walter Krasny Eleven women, arrested last week when police raided two local mas- sage parlors, stood mute yesterday when they were arraigned on prosti- tution charges before 15th District Court Judge Pieter Thomassen. The women were taken into cus- tody last week when police raided the U.S. Health Spa at 212 Huron St. and the Velvet Touch Massage Parlor 215 S. Fourth Ave. All employees of the establishments, the eleven women were arrested on accosting and soliciting charges. Huron Towers conversion plan nearU (Continued from Page 1) city history that a large apart- ment complex has been converted to a co-op. Under cooperative manage- ment, each resident would have a vote in decisions concerning rent, levels of service provided, and other apartment matters. Klein said the CRC received its first official statement from HUD in a letter last week. "They told us they would consider the effects of co-op conversion, but seemed fairly non- committal about it," Klein said. George Day, a special assistant at HUD's Detroit office, said HUD plans to have the building appraised and fully repaired before putting the twin towers up for sale. Day said he has received two other inquiries from discussion non-profit groups interested in pur- chasing the apartments, but their plans for the building don't fit in with the conditions under which HUD plans to sellit. "WE KNOW there's a great deal of tenant concern and we're approach- ing this with some care," said Day. "We have to make the reasonable de- termination to make sure we get the best price we can." This could take months, he added. Chances are "excellent" that Hur- on Towers will be converted to a co-op, maintained Roger Willcox, president of Techni Co-op, Inc., a Connecticut-based cooperative or- ganization. TechniCo-op has agreed to provide professional services for the tenants on a contingency basis, stage meaning the organization's fees would be paid from mortgage pro- ceeds if the co-op attempt is success- ful. "I have helped convert co-ops in several states and have every reason to believe that the tenants have the knowledge and capability to do it in this case," Willcox said. He said with tenant support of conversion as it is now, the CRC shouldn't have any problem matching private bids for the apartments. JULIUS YACKER, a Chicago law- yer, has offered to handle the legal side of the conversion, also on a contingency basis. In early October, the University shelved a previous interest in pur- chasing Huron Towers, ON SATURDAY, Washtenaw County Sheriff deputies closed down the U.S. Health Spa. The spa is loca- ted above the Whiffletree restaurant. According to Whiffletree Manager Robert Babcock, the Spa has caused, problems with the restaurant's busi- ness and was delinquent in paying last month's rent. The massage parlor was not raided before Thursday's bust, Babcock added, but some of its employees had been involved in prostitution related arrests. The raids were the result of a three-month long investigation of suspected massage parlor and pros- titution operations in the city. Citizen complaints of "streetwalk- er" activity spurred the massage parlor crackdown, said Police Chief Walter Krasny. "This is asituation that has been going on for some time now," Krasny said of the parlor and prostitution ar- rangements. , KRASNY SAID the investigation of massage parlor-prostitution opera- tions will continue and that the two establishments were not the only parlors suspected of prostitution op- erations. One parlor clerk, who wants to remain unidentified, said the police were "coming down too hard on them" and parlor operators are con- sidering leaving the city. "That's the general idea," Krasny said after hearing complaints of the perturbed clerk, "to have them pack up and get out of the city."

Humphrey-Hawkins job bill receives Carter's endorsement (Continued from Page 1) Humphrey and Hawkins predicted favorable action on the bill shortly after Congress convenes early next year. ADMINISTRATION officials em- phasized that the legislation would give Carter flexibility in meeting economic goals. "The bill does not authorize any new programs or add any money to the budget," said one official. The official said-,the legislation "provides substantjal flexibility to both Congress and the President to adapt to changing circumstances and doesn't put anybody in a strait- jacket." Officials also said that more than four months of negotiations between the White House and congressional sponsors of full employment legisla-. tion was necessary because "we attempted to negotiate sentence-by- sentence and paragraph-by-para- graph specific language the Presi- dent could endorse." The bill would also: * Establish a framework for econ- omic policy decisions, with the ad- ministration sending to Congress its goals for employment, unemploy- ment, production and income over a five-year period; . Recognize that "special govern- ment efforts" are needed to fight high unemployment "but that pri- mary emphasis should be placed on expanding job opportunities in the i I i '. t BURDA'S ULTRATYPE COMPREHENSIVE TYPING SERVICES "let our fingers do the typing" Grophics-Illustrators-I nterpretors dissertations-Full Line Service Technical and Scientific Manuals Resumes-Compose-Edit Bond Copier Services Entrancing Ensemble private sector;'' " Recognize that monetary and fiscal policies, rather than govern- ment controlof private production, wages and prices, must, be used to achieve full employment and price stability. Carter said last year during the presidential campaign that he sup- ported the bill's concept. His com- ments about the bill itself were fre- quently vague, although he is on rec- ord as supporting an earlier version of the bill. THIS ENDORSEMENT came in his recommendations to the Demo- cratic platform committee in June 1976. It also appears in the list of campaign promises compiled by the White House staff early this year. However, Carter repeatedly had expressed misgivings about any program that gave primary empha- sis to government jobs instead of private employment for the chron- ically jobless. Objections by Carter administra- tion officials led to the compromise bill that was stripped of mandatory spending programs. Although the compromise legisla- tion offers no specific programs to provide jobs, it makes some import- ant changes in the way the govern- ment plans economic policies. IT RECOMMENDS that the Presi- dent consider several programs for fighting unemployment, including public works projects and revenue sharing. Call: Mon. thru Sat. 9 am to 9 pm 2440 W. STADIUM BLVD. ANN ARBOR, MICH.-995-4223 U I 0 (Continued on Page 5) they have achieved through the. quality of their interactions. The Ensemble has played together since the mid-sixties and the musicians ob- viously communicate in a very unique fashion. DON MOYE on drums and various percussion instruments was out- standing. The ability to maintain a strong rhythmic base for a group as complex as The Art Ensemble is no easy task, yet Moye does just that. Malachi Favors was also excellent on bass, as well as congas, harmonicas, and assorted vocals. Roscoe Mitchell plays a piercing alto saxophone. His solos were inven- tive, often exploding into torrents of sound. Joseph Jarman on reeds, per- cussion, marimbas, and vocals was a whirlwind of energy, often the cata- lyst for-the groups' numerous transi- tions. One of a large number of talented musical forces to emerge from The Association For The Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM), the Ensemble are a dedicated group of artists who spend a good deal of their time running a free music school in Chicago. They are an extremely powerful musical experience and one can only hope that more forums will open up for them to perform in this country. The Art Ensemble's music is very intense and very difficult, but Geremiah (Continued on Pages) and guitar work. Since his hands were busy with his guitar, he played a mounted harp. This meant losing all the bending and shaping of notes that he could have achieved by cupping his hands over the instru- mdent. Madcat redeemed himself in the there is no doubt the group will be a moving force in music for many years to come. Appearing before The Art En- semble was Griot Galaxy, a group of seven locally-based young musi- cians. Playing in a similar style to the AACM groups, Griot Galaxy per- Formed a-moving and frenzied set of jazz that brought the crowd to its feet twice with lengthy ovations. Com- prised of three percussionists, a bass player, two reeds, and a flute, Griot Galaxy's potential seems quite high and they deserve the support of this community in all their future en- deavors.
