City ele By JOHN GOYER City voters will decide the fate of two ballot proposals tomorrow. Proposals A and B, if passed, would allow the city to borrow money in order to fund a storm Vewer project and a road improvement respectively. Approval of Proposal A - the Sister Lakes drainage proposal - would allow the city to borrow $575,000 through the sale of bonds to build a drainage system that would relieve flooding in the Lakewoods neighborhood near the two Sister Lakes on Ann Arbor's West side. AND PASSAGE of Proposal B would authorize the city to sell $325,000 in bon- to finance the widening and resur- acing of South Industrial Highway and the construction of sidewalks along the road. Voting on the ballot proposals tomorrow is part of a city general elec- tion in which city residents will also elect five of ten city councilmembers - one from each ward - to two-year ter- ms. Because both projects would add to residents' tax bills -property taxes would be used over several years to pay ack money borrowed for the projects - the two must be approved at the polls, under the terms of the Headlee amendment. 1 M etion ballot to include 2 I The Michigan Daily-Sunday, April 6, 1980-Page 3 bonding issues PASSAGE OF Proposal A would add about $2.70 per year for ten years to the property tax bill for a house assessed at $30,000. Proposal B, if approved, would mean an addition of $2.50 per year to the same homeowner's tax bill. The Sister Lakes bonding proposal - Proposal A - would fund construction of a retention basin and underground istorm sewer construction to control runoff from the Lakewoods neigh- borhood south of Jackson Rd. and west of Interstate 94. The stormwater flows into three Sister Lakes, two of which are within the city's limits. Adjacent to the lakes is Dolph Park. ACCORDING TO Washtenaw County Drain Commissioner Thomas Blessing, the drain construction would not only control the amount of water flowing in- to the lakes, it would also improve the quality of the water. The retention basin, Blessing explained, would filter out sediment that contains pollutants and heavy metals. Blessing and Michael Traugott, president of the Sister Lakes Conser- vation Association, pointed out yester- day 'that construction of the drainage system would have a much more im- portant, though indirect, result. If the county drain commissioner administers the project, the pair said, the commissioner's office legally becomes a property owner. If future development were to threaten the drainage system of the Sister Lakes - or that of more than 500 acres of un- developed land to the south in Scio Township, which comprises the Sister Lakes Drainage District - the county drain commissioner would go to court as an aggrieved property owner. TRAUGOTT CALLED the drainage construction "indirectly a very impor- tant planning tool in the development of that side of town." Proposal A has been endorsed by the Ann Arbor League of Women voters and Traugott's association, which is made up of about 300 families. The $575,000 bond issue represents about 60 per cent of the total $872,000 estimated cost of the project. The balance will come from state, county and Scio Township funds. PROPOSAL B, $325,000 in road im- provements to South Industrial High- way, would fund one third of the im- provements slated for the road. Residents and businesses along South Industrial Highway will pay the balan- ce of the road improvements' cost. The Citizens Association for Area Planning, a 200-member group which lobbies City Council on planning mat- ters, has declared its support of the im- provements. The group thinks the road im- provements would help relieve the heavy traffic on State Street, which runs parallel to South Industrial High- way, according Robert Pott's a -mem- ber of CAAP's board of directors. But the South Industrial im- provements proposal does not have the degree of support that observers give to Proposal A. City Council voted Feb. 4 to place Proposals A and B on tomorrow's ballot and while the Sister Lakes bonding proposal passed easily nine to two, the South Industrial proposal squeaked by on the minimum seven to four vote. Council voted against placing three other road improvement bonding proposals on the ballot the same evening."' * LESLIE MORRIS (D-Second Ward), one of the four who voted against the placing Proposal B on the ballot, yesterday said she did not think the im- provements to South Industrial High- way deserved priority over the other road improvements. Morris voted against all four road improvements Feb. 4. David Fisher (R-Fourth Ward) and Ed Hood (R-Fourth Ward) voted again- st all five ballot proposals at the Feb. 4 meeting, holding that it would be "in- consistent" to ask the voters to give themselves a tax hike when so many were already concerned about high taxes. Barbara Perkins, who is challenging Fisher in tomorrow's polling, has also declared her opposition to the South In- dustrial bonding proposal. The five projects considered Feb. 4 are part of a city Capital Improvements Plan. Campus fraternities, sororities raise more than $10,000 d By SUE INGLIS Members of campus fraternities and sororities raised more than $10,000 during recent "Greek Week" fundraising activities, according to organizers of the event. Liz Steinbaum, a co-chairwoman for fundraising and public relations and member of Sigma Delta Tau sorority, said that participants were pleased with the results of the March 28-29 event, the proceeds from which will go to a number of local and national charities. "A LOT OF people have a stereotype of Greeks being obnoxious and rowdy and drinking beer all the time. I think (fundraising) shows people we do care about the community,'' Steinbaum said. A. spokesperson for the Ann Arbor Women's Crisis Center, one of the organizations that will receive money from Greek Week events, said, "It made our month to hear we were getting some money. It's this kind of fundraising that is so vital to us as a grassroots organization." A variety of events sponsored by individual fraternities and sororities attracted large audiences andnetted thousands ofsdollars in donations. MORE THAN 1,000 spectators turned out to watch the Sigma Chi fraternity swimathon at Matt Mann pool. Nearly $6,500 in pledges raised from the event will be donated to the Muscular Dystrophy associaiton and the Women's Crisis Center. Alpha Tau Omega fraternity earned $1,700 in its fourth annual "Spaghetti Chowdown." Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Epilepsy Foundation of America.. Sigma Delta Tau sorority organized a "Donate-a-Six" can drive, netting about $2,000 which will go to Mott Children's Hospital. tring 'Greek A two-day blood drive sponsored by Alpha Chi Omega and the Red Cross was so popular that people had to be turned away, according to the event's organizers. Week' Other events during Greek Week included a Greek Sing at the Michigan- Theatre, a bed race, a torchlight parade, and the Greek Olympics at Palmer Field.

""" THE PROBLEM is rejection - the immune system, which protects the body against disease, identifies the transplanted organ as a foreign invader and attacks it. Similar problems almost ended heart transplantation after a flurry of operations failed because of rejections a decade ago. Stanford was one of the few medical centers that persevered and learned to defeat rejection with drugs that suppress the immune system. After Stanford's results - 60 per cent of transplant patients live five years - the procedure. is again being done elsewhere. Dr. Kenneth Moser, a UCSD professor of pulmonary medicine who experimented for several years with lung transplants in dogs, said "each organ is highly specific in terms of its rejection potential .. . Nobody has yet been able to find a way to keep the lungs from being rejected." He said lungs seem more susceptible transplants to rejection damage than other organs. "Small blood vessels in the lungs are, the first things to be injured by rejection and they are the most vital parts," he said. "That's where the oxygen gets in to the blood stream and carbon dioxide gets out." Shumway said the procedure might be especially effective for patients with irreversible damage to blood vessels associated with the lungs, such as primary pulmonary hypertension. Moser said reliable lung transplants might someday save many patients with diseases ranging from cystic fibrosis to emphysema.

Students forced to live off campus deserve better protection against rape and assault. PARKING TICKET REFORM: The city of Ann Arbor gives out an average of 18,700 tickets a month. This is plain harassment of students and other residents. The real problem is a glaring lack of parking space. Police enforcement should be directed to Hill and State St. areas.
