Thieves active over Christmas The Michigan Daily-Wednesday, January 5, 1983-Page 5 Band marches away with a rosy award By JERRY ALIOTTA The Christmas holidays, normally a time of giving, were a time of taking, too, according to Ann Arbor police. Thousands of dollars worth of Kmer- thandise was nabbed during the several break-ins that occurred over Vacation. "Easy to peddle items with good resale value, such as stereo equipment, cameras and televisions, were at the lop of thieves Christmas lists, accor- ding to Sgt. Harold Tinsey. $1,305 WORTH of merchandise - in- eluding the rug off' the floor - was taken from an apartment on the 200 "block of Packard after a burglar forced a door to gain entry, police said. On Elm St., $635 in cash and $250 worth fo stereo equipment was stolen from a residence. "We see a lot of B and E's (breaking 'and enterings) during holiday weeken- ds and breaks, not just in the campus 4 area but almost everywhere," Tinsey paid. "It's something that is hard to prevent." One suspect was caught, police repor- ted. Marvin Crowder, 28, was arrested on New Year's Day after allegedly gaining entry to a State St. apartment by breaking a window. Police were tip- ped off to the crime by an alert neigh- bor, who witnessed the suspect carrying a television out of the front door. MOST CRIMES could be halted, if more people would keep alert when their neighbors are away, Tinsey said. "We can do it if we get help," he said. "That is why we always encourage neighbors to keep a look out." On campus, vandalism, not break- ins, was the major problem. Two glass doors at the north end of Mason Hall, valued at more than $100 each, were shattered during the holidays and another glass door was broken at the new Alumni Center, according to Walter Stevens, director of the Depar- tment of Public Safety. The University, however, didn't suf- fer extensive damage during the recess, Stevens said. Besides the broken glass, various buildings around campus were blemished with paint. By SHARON SILBAR Although the Wolverines didn't walk away with the roses this year, the University of Michigan Marching Band still managed to look like a winner. During the Rose Bowl Saturday, the marching band became the first recipient of the Sudler Trophy, an award established to "recognize collegiate marchings bands of par- ticular excellence," according to the award's sponsor, real estate magnate and fine arts philanthropist Louis Sudler. President Reagan congratulated the band in a taped message. "The mar- ching band is a colorful part of our national heritage - it's an elixir that stirs the blood, rouses the spirit and improves the disposition," he said. "No one's heart or feet can remain still when a marching band goes by. . . So congratulations again to the University of Michigan." Considered a companion to the Heisman Trophy, the Sudler Trophy stands 22 inches high and is valued at more than $12,000. It will become a permanent possession of the Univer- sity. The Trophy is inscribed with the names of the University director of bands H. Robert Reynolds, marching band director Eric Becher, and former directors Wilfred Wilson, Nicholas Falcone, William Revelli, Jack Lee, and George Cavender. The marching band was selected by two separate voting procedures.

EPTON SAID that after years of remaining outside the political system he decided that he should get involved. Epton said he feels people are "ready to try unique alternatives." He said that "encouraging small businesses or cooperatives may create more jobs per dollar" than present governmental programs. Republican incumbent E. Edward Hood is not seeking re-election, so the Fourth Ward is a race between two new candidates, Democrat John Powell and Republican Larry Hahn. Powell, a for- mer school board member and assistant director of community ser- vices at the University, said his main motive foi running was the need for "some systematic planning on the path the city takes in the next decade." Republican Louis Velker is seeking his second term as councilmember from the Fifth Ward, where he faces Democrat Kathy Edgren, director of the inmate counseling program of the University's Project Outreach program. Velker said he believes he has "made some contributions to my ward and the city," adding that he has "tried to vote in a way to reserve the taxpayers' dollars." Velker admits that being a councilmember has its problems, but said "you have to weigh the pressures and grief you receive with what you can do for the city." Edgren said she feels the Fifth Ward has "real potential for being a Democrat ward." She said she feel- that the current Republican majority on the council has been "ineffectual," and has delivered "inadequate and inappropriate" responses to the problems of the city. Edgren said she feels that the primary issues facing the council are human services, development of the downtown area, and pothole and road problems. She added that her ward has some drain problems that she would like the council to deal with. PUTEM 54 Cigrte AWAY I 11 t A DAY. do all the Work.
