Domino s
by Laura Counts
Daily Women's Issues Reporter
The Domino's Farms drive-
through light show, using over
280,000 bulbs to depict scenes from
the first Christmas, was turned on
last night despite Ann Arbor Town-
ship officials' efforts to obtain an in-
junction against the display.
Washtenaw County Circuit Judge
Edward Deake denied the request for a
preliminary injunction yesterday
morning. However, township attor-
ney Randolph Perry said the town-
ship will continue to request a per-
manent injunction.
The controversy surrounding the
display -located at Domino's head-
quarters on Earhart Rd. in northeast-
ern Ann Arbor - arose in 1987

lights go o
when neighbors said they suffered
"irreparable harm" from the large
volume of traffic.
Deake's ruling yesterday said that
residents were inconvenienced, but
not harmed, by the display.
However, Shirley Koch, who
lives near the light show route, said
her family and guests were not able
to get to their house for Christmas
dinner two years ago. She said they
would have to drive an extra four
miles to avoid the traffic.
"We'll survive it this year, but
it's very frustrating," she said.
"(Domino's owner Tom Monaghan)
claims to be a good neighbor but I
don't know what his definition of a
neighbor is."
The Ann Arbor Township Board

n despite complaints

of Trustees passed an ordinance last
summer requiring residents to obtain
permits for any temporary outdoor
gatherings. Monaghan then requested
a permit and was denied by the
board.
The board filed suit against Mon-
aghan when he announced last
month he would continue with the
show despite the ordinance.
In his opinion, Deake declared the
ordinance to be "unconstitutionally
vague," enabling the board to deny a
permit on "mere caprice."
Domino's has worked out a new
traffic route with two lanes of traffic
along the 2.1 mile Earhart Rd. loop,
which includes a 3.7 mile "safety
valve" in case of a back-up, said
Domino's Farms Community Rela-

tions Director Dick Brunvand.
Police cars will be stationed'
throughout the route to keep things
moving and allow emergency vehi-
cles through. In addition, Domino's
issued "priority passes" to residents
so they can bypass the traffic, with a
telephone number to call for assis
tance.
But resident Norma Shear asked*
"What good is a pass going to do
you when you are in a line of cars?"
Perry added that residents' guests
would have difficulty obtaining
passes.
The display will run for 69
nights. Last year, more than
150,000 vehicles drove through the
show area.

Ex-worker threatens suit against MUG

by Mike Sobel
Daily Staff Writer
Ann Arbor resident Jacquelyn
Campbell said she quit her job at the
Michigan Union Grill's Parcheezies
last Thursday night because she was
told that, as a non-student, she was
not allowed to handle the cash regis-
ter.
Campbell said yesterday she is
considering legal action against the
MUG for what she said are discrimi-
natory policies.
As she was about to ring up an
item, she said, a student worker told
her she was not supposed to touch
the register. The student said Michi-
gan Union Business Manager Don
Mk had told him about some up-
cOming policy changes which would
dilcourage non-student temporary
workers from using the registers,
Campbell said.
MUG Manager Charles Nelson

confirmed that the managers plan to
introduce such a policy in January,
"to insure greater security in han-
dling of the cash."
Still, both Mask and Union Di-
rector Frank Cianciola said there
never has been, nor will be, any pol-
icy barring non-students from using
the registers and said they were
unaware of the incident involving
Campbell.
They both said the Union's fo-
cus has always been to provide stu-
dent employment and create a student
atmosphere.
"We want students serving stu-
dents," Mask said. "Students first,
managers and then non-student em-
ployees, that's the goal of the
union."
Cianciola said, "It is becoming
exceedingly difficult to get students
in these (service) positions. We're
reasserting our efforts to move as

many students into these positions
as possible. The (non-student) temps
just serve to fill in the gaps."
Campbell, however, said, "If
there are not enough students, it's
their problem for hiring us in the
first place. They can't dog us out."
She also said last Thursday
night's manager, Darlene Hogan,
told her that Bill Mathiak, the
MUG's general manager, said,
"there's no way a temp should be on
a register," unless supervised by a
manager. Campbell said she felt
mistrusted simply because she
wasn't a student.
At first, Mathiak said he was
unaware of any such incident, but
later added that Campbell had not
been clear about her reasons for leav-
ing.
"She was running the register at
the time," Mathiak said. "We've had
cash control problems on and off but

that's because people weren't getting
the proper training - it's not tar-
geted only at temps. Besides, no one
else has had a problem with it."
Hogan was unavailable for com-
ment yesterday.
Tony Harris, an Ann Arbor resi-
dent formerly enrolled at the Univer-
sity, has been working at the MUG
for three months and holds several
jobs there, including work as a
cashier.
While non-student workers were
allowed to handle the cash registers
in the past, Harris said, the MUG
managers had preferred that students
occupy cashier positions.
Harris said non-student employ-
ees have had to handle registers be-
cause of a general lack of student
employees. A policy against non-
students handling the registers, he
said, is "unfair... it's discriminatory
against non-students."
