Republicans gained one seat on the
Ann Arbor City Council Tuesday night,
with GOP challenger Michael Reid
edging out Democratic Councilwoman
Joan Lowenstein by a 1.5 percent mar-
gin. It was Lowenstein's first election
since her appointment to the 2nd Ward
seat last year.
Reid, a portfolio manager, attributed
the win to his experience with bud-
getary issues as the city is forced to
work with a smaller budget. He and fel-
low Republicans, including former
Mayor Ingrid Sheldon, celebrated last
night at Cleveland's Gill and Grill on
Main Street.
"A lot of people realized that budget
issues are real important and I have a lot
of experience in that," he said.
He also said his opposition to acces-
sory apartments - extra apartments
built onto houses - put him over the
top.
Residents were "concerned it would
change the character of the city," he
said.
Democrat Robert Johnson of the 1st
Ward and Republican Marcia Higgins
of the 4th Ward easily won re-election,
while 3rd Ward Councilwoman Heidi
Cowing Herrell and 5th Ward incum-
bent Wendy Ann Woods, both
nmcnrratg ran nnnnnozed
Democrats now hold an 8-3 majority
on the council, including Mayor John
Hieftje. Five of the 10 seats are up for
election each year.

election in the 2nd Ward with fellow
Democrats at Arbor Brewing Company
on Washington Street, promised to
remain active in local affairs.
Democrats crossed their fingers as they
waited for the results from the ward's
final precinct to come in. But the net
two-vote gain she received in that
precinct was not enough to overcome
Reid's lead.
"A lot of other politicians have lost
elections and gone on to win other
ones," she said.
University of Michigan College
Democrats Chair Eric Feldman said stu-
dents could have delivered the close
election to Lowenstein.
"A heavily Republican ward could
have turned Democratic if we had had
higher student turnout," he said.
In the 1st Ward, Johnson defeated
Republican challenger Scott Wojack, 77
percent to 22 percent.
Johnson pledged to "build relation-
ships with the surrounding townships"
and deal with the economics concern-
ing lower income housing. "We're
going to have to deal with the econom-
ic climate," he said. "This is not an issue
people are going to want to deal with."
Wojack, who also suffered a loss in
last year's 52nd District state House
election, said he did well for a heavily
Democratic ward. He hopes to work
with the city to increase student voter
turnout and promote renewable energy.
"I would like to see the city move to
half of the people using renewable ener-
gy," he said. "It may take time to work
with the community and share my
ideas."
In the 4th Ward, challenger Michael
Nowak failed in his attempt to give the
Green Party its first council member,
losing by about 36 percent. Nowak had
hoped that without a Democrat running
in the race, he would have a better
chance at defeating Republican incum-
bent Higgins.
"I am very pleased to serve the con-
stituents of the 4th Ward," Higgins said
last night. She said she would work to
"remove barriers" to making housing in
the city more affordable.
"We're pleased that the Green Party
is making progress," Nowak said.
"We've tripled our numbers since the
last election."
Nowak was satisfied with the turnout
after the Green Party's second year on
the ballet. He plans to work on increas-
ing voter turnout among students and
has not decided if he will run again.
"The University of Michigan is real
strong in terms of social justice," he
said. "The Green Party really fits in
with their views."

In an article tagging the nation's col-
lege students as "Generation 9-11,"
Newsweek Magazine's Nov. 12 cover
story focuses on the University commu-
nity's actions in the wake of the unprece-
dented events of the last two months. The
issue went on sale nationwide Monday.
Newsweek Senior Editor." Barbara
Kantrowitz said the University's diverse
environment was a major factor in her
selection of the school for the article. The
University's students are ethnically
diverse, and they are studying many dif-
ferent things, Kantrowitz said. She added
that the University's significant numbers
of Jewish, Arab and Muslim students
made it ideal.
"I've just always thought it was a great
school," she said. "I think there are a lot
of smart students there, and I just wanted
to know what they were thinking at a
time when very few of us know what to
think.
LSA senior Brenda Abdelall, presi-
dent of the University's Arab Student
Association, was interviewed for the arti-
cle and appears on the magazine's cover.
"I think the article did a pretty good
job of depicting the way our lives have
been shaped and changed by September
11," she said. "I think it's great that they.
came to the University of Michigan cam-
pus because we did have a lot of activism
after September 11.'
Abdelall also noted the vigils, teach-
ins and protests that have taken place on
"I just wanted to know
what they were
thinking at a time when
very few of us know
what to think. "

campus this semester.
Abdelall said she feels the article
encompassed a wide variety of view-
points, relating the experiences of many
campus groups. The Greek system, the
Michigan Marching Band, the Arab and
Muslim communities and ROTC are
among those represented in the article.
Rackham student Paxton Williams,
who also appears o the Newsweek
cover, said the University provided a
unique perspective on the aftermath of
Sept. 11.
"I think it is very important for the
mass media to look at how September 11
is affecting all aspects of society
including students," he said.
Kantrowitz said that at the University,
she found a generation of students who
are handling themselves differently than
their parents did during the Vietnam War.
"What made me feel good was the
high level of thoughtfulness and commit-
ment on the part of the students,"
Kantrowitz said. "I feel the country will
be in good hands."

After a two year layoff, Michigan
(4-1 Big Ten, 6-2 overall) will
resume its battle for the Little Brown
Jug with Minnesota (1-4, 3-5) this
Saturday.
This once-balanced rivalry has lost
some of its luster with the fans in the
past half-century, since the
Wolverines began dominating the
series. Michigan has won 29 of the
last 31 meetings and holds an all-
time advantage in the series at 63-
23-3.
Nevertheless, the hype is not lost
on coach Lloyd Carr.
"We are looking forward to play-
ing for the oldest trophy in college
football, the Little Brown Jug, and it
has great value to our program," Carr
said.
But it may not have the same
meaning to Minnesota, which not
only hasn't had the Little Brown Jug
in the last 12 chances, but it also
plays for three other rivalry trophies.
"Obviously that Minnesota versus
Michigan for the Little Brown Jug
was a big thing at one time," Mason
said. "I think once the rivalry
becomes lopsided - which it has -
I think maybe the rivalry is dimin-
ished to a certain extent, especially
when you take into account at
Minnesota we've got a lot of builtin
rivalries, we play for a lot of trophies
- probably more trophies than any-
body."
The Gophers nearly pulled off the
upset in the their last mtchup in
Minneapolis, when a Tom Brady-led
Michigan squad fell behind 10-7 in
the first quarter, but came back to
win 15-10 in a defensively dominat-
ed game.
If Minnesota expects to defeat the
Wolverines this year, it will have to
rely on its rushing game, which is
second in the Big Ten at 240.5 yards
per game. Michigan retained the No.
1 rushing defense in the country,
despite allowing 211 yards to
Michigan State's T.J. Duckett last
week. But Mason still expects the
Wolverines to be tough on the
ground game.
"A lot of times guys change their
opinions on things based on one per-
formance," Mason said. "Michigan
didn't become a good team against
the rush overnight, nor will they dis-
appear being a good team against the
rush overnight. I'm expecting a team
in Michigan that will be extremely
tough to run against."
Last week, the Spartans neutral-
ized the Michigan linebackers by
spreading the field and forcing the
Wolverines to commit to the pass.
The Gophers aren't as talented at
wide receiver or quarterback as the
Spartans, but Carr expects
Minnesota to challenge the
Wolverines' secondary.
"They are like a lot of teams that
have an outstanding ability to run in
the sense they are going to make you
put eight or nine guys on the line,
and then they throw the ball to (Ron)
Johnson on the outside. It's not com-
Larry Foote attacked Jeff Smoker all afterr
plicated, but it's effective." Carr saic
The game has bowl implication
for both teams as Michigan will tr
to retain the lead in the Big Ten an
the Gophers will try to win thei
remaining games to finish with
chance to go to a bowl for the fourtl
consecutive year. Minnesota faces
tough road in its remaining game!
and coach Glen Mason is realisti
about his team's chances.
