UAW BOYCOTTS HERMAN'S
City votes
to COmpile
facts on
P antree
incident*
By STEVE KNOPPER
The Ann Arbor City Council's
Human Rights Commission voted
yesterday to request more informa-
tion about the recent harassment of
gay men and lesbians at Pantree
restaurant.
The commission requested the
City Attorney, the City Administra-
tor, the Chief of Police, and other
city staff members to attend a meet-
ing about the incident, in which five
patrons vomited and spit on the gay
customers.
The motion, proposed by HRC
member Ann Hampton-Hawkens, did
not specify a time or place for the
planned meeting. The HRC is an
advisory body and has no actual au-
thority over the city staff.
Alicia Lucksted, a member of
Lesbian and Gay Rights on Campus,
said she was satisfied with the com-
mission's action, but added, "This is
not something that can be resolved
with one meeting."
More than 25 people picketed the
Pantree Sept. 12, protesting the
restaurant for not preventing the in-
cident. Pantree management apolo-
gized for the incident and Lucksted
said the restaurant, in general, "has
not been known to be discriminato-
ry.
Contract, racism prompt strike
By STEPHEN GREGORY
After almost three months o f
picketing the Herman's sporting
goods store in Briarwood mall, a
member of the union sponsoring the
protest said Ann Arbor residents
don't care about the union's boycott.
John Linfield, a United Auto
Workers member and a coordinator
of the Briarwood Herman's protests,
said most city residents have ignored
the union's request to either join the
picketers or refrain from shopping at
the store.
"This is the weakest line in
Michigan. We've had a tough time
getting support," he said. Linfield
was the only picketer walking the
line yesterday.
Linfield also said he didn't think
the boycott was successful. "We're
hurting their business little, if at
all," he said.
Linfield said Herman's employees
from nine Michigan stores walked
off their job last July 3 after the
UAW rejected a contract offer from
Herman's management which Lin-
field said would cut pay and health
benefits and would fail to establish a
college tuition reimbursment pro-
gram.
The UAW wants to renegotiate a
contract with Herman's and has also
filed a law suit against the store al-
leging racial discrimination. The suit
is currently pending in federal court.
Linfield attributed the lack of
support for the boycott to the city's
professional makeup. "People here
are really apathetic as far as respect-
ing a picket line because they're
management people -people who
aren't affected by a union."
Most Herman's customers leav-
ing the store yesterday said they were
unaware of the UAW's complaints
with the store or the charges o f
racism leveled at Herman's.
Ann Arbor resident T.J. Johnson
said he knew of the boycott, but
bought a baseball bat at the store
any way. "If the people who work
here aren't striking, what's the
beef?"
Karen Hawk, Herman's South-
eastern Michigan district manager,
said that currently only 10 Herman's
employees are among the picketers
walking the lines at nine of Her-
man's 12 stores in Michigan.
Linfield said in August many
striking Herman's employees re-
turned to work and voted to decertify
the UAW, which was representing
employees at the nine stores.
Larry Steele, a UAW member and
the main coordinator of the Her-
man's boycott, said the average wage
at the predominately Black-staffed

Ford listed
in 'very
serious
condition
DETROIT (AP) - Henry Ford
II's condition was downgraded
yesterday from serious to very
serious, as the automobile executive
began developing heart and kidney
problems related to pneumonia,
hospital officials said.
Ford remained in the intensive
care unit of Henry Ford Hospital,
spokesperson Chris Kassab said.
"Today's events are not
encouraging," Ford's physician Dr.
Bruce Steinhauer, said in a statement
read by Kassab. "Mr. Ford's lungs
have not recovered. The in-
flammation and fibrosis continue in
spite of appropriate treatment and
respiratory support.
"Insufficient oxygen is getting
into his bloodstream," the statement
said. "This, plus the fibrosis, is
putting an extra burden on his heart.
This has resulted in a circulatory
problem to the kidneys so that he is
now on dialysis.
"He has experienced a reduction in
heart function, but his major
problem is still his lungs,
Steinhauer said.
Ford, grandson of the founder of
both Ford Motor Company and
Henry Ford Hospital was admitted
Sept. 12 after being treated several
days at Cottage Hospital in the
Detroit suburb of Grosse Pointe
Farms.
