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 See UAW, Page 5 .. . , .... .a". ...v ~ .....*'.... ..*y... ...'.s:;}t:J.¢. , TH IST What's happening in Ann Arbor today Campus Cinema Psycho (Alfred Hitchcock, 1960), 7:00 and 9:00 p.m., Lorch.

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.
