Letter to the Editor iLetler lo the Editor:
In regard lo your recent coverage of the Novi Townsliip board inteling Jan. 10, iriay I say that aside 'from several , misquotes, Jiho disturbing factor lo me was that you chose to involve pei'sonalily.
I have given much time and study to Ihe school problem confronting Willowbrook and have found both the Novi and Northville school boards eager to work together on the eventual solution to our problems.
Certainly you imply by your statement that, "Mr. StaInan defended Northville-—" that l attack Norlhville, which I did not.
I fool strongly that at this lime school problems must be met in a -greart spirit of coopei'ation and hope that in the future your paper w i l l see the necessity of accurate r e p o r t , in 'g particularly concerning school affairs.
The need for more schools in this area is obvious. This need can only be.Inet by 'a dedieative.
unbiased approach by all concerned.
Sincerely, Mrs. Kenneth Bernard
' Willowbrook Village Editor's Note
We are indeed sorry to - haVe caused Mrs. Bernard's personality to beccfine involved, thus cnusing her any inconvenience or embarrassment.
Regarding the "niis-quolos" to which Mrs. Bernard refers, a careful review ot our written notes and a chock wi lh officials attending the meeting convinces us that the statements were accurate as originally rep'orted.
We chose to print tbe conversation concerning schools which took place at the meoting bo-cause we felt trial the questions and answers brought forth at that lime graphically described tbe various as'pecls of a serious situation.
L c l us hope lhi>.t in addition to bo dedicated and unbiased, i n dividuals may also be "rational in their approach to the problem.

ZONING BATTLE ENDS by G. H . C.
Now that the battle over i'e-zoning the St. Lawrellce pi'opel'ty appears to be ovel', with the racing interests and the City CoUi'icll prepared to accept the Planning Com-lni.ssion's original reconlnlendation, it is appropriate to reprint this week a portion ol: the Record's editorial of Nov. 3. It appears below.
" . . . the City Planning Commission acted wisely . . . when it listened to pbjections of township residents and then dealt With the re-zoning application on the basis of Its relative advantages to the city and its .disadvantage to Individuals who are so unfortunate as to own property that proba'bly will be depreciated by the erection of horse Ijarns. The Planning Commission's effort to come up with a compromise plan that would give Northville Downs the barn site It must have, and at the same time to'cushlon the depreciation to adjoining property which these barns will I cause was a goodwill move that should 'not be shrugged off lightly."
* * * *
The Record staff was plen.sed to receive notiijication this week from the Michigan Pl-ess Ass'n. that this paper has been selected for special hnnoi's, in the General Excellence Contest which the association conducts annually among all Blichigan weekly npwsnapei's. The award-is to be made formally at the anljual convention in Lansing iie.xt week.
More Than Half of Township Taxes In "$133,000 has been collected in
township taxes during the past month," said Northviile Twp. Treasurer Hoy M . Terr i l l this week, "and that is unusually good." The tax roll totals $232,-000.
Township taxpayers have until Feb. 29 to pay their taxes to the treasurer who has set up an office at Depositors State Bank on Main St.
Starting Mar. 1, all ta.xes w i i l have to paid in Detroit at a 4',4% added Interest rate.
Random J^oiu
With the new year well under way, it seems safe to tell a story which happened last year Involving a benevolent pa^olman and a respected, although somewhat inebriated township resident.
While cruising along , a s i d e
J road_ one cold V night, the pol-' i iceman c a m e
\ u p o n a c a r );parked In' the ' voad. The lights
were on, the motor oiif, and the occupant soundly asleep i n the front seat wearing off the effects of a feiw too many beers.
After moving the car over to the side of the road, the patrolman stretched the driver out into a more comfortable position and covered him with a car robe. Attaching a neatly worded note to the car visor, the patrolman rolled the windows down slightl y for fresh air, locked the car, and tossed the keys back inside. The note read simply, "Compliments Novi Township Police Department."

Original Hecommendation Of Planning Commission Iccepted By City Council
The l-eccnt al-gunient over re-zoning the St. Lawrence Ilroperty I'or ti-ack ii.se and pel-mitting winter stabling at the new location iipiieareti well on the road to settlement at the conclusion ot the City Council meeting Monday evening.
Couilcilman Eai'l Roed proposed an ordinance incor-Ilorating all rocomlilcndations of the City Planning Commission as adopted at an e. ecutive ses.slon after its public hearing had been adjourned at a late hour last Friday evening.
They w e r e ; Re-2oning Regulalions
1. To permit oniy 230 hoi'scs to be stabiod in Northville Downs bai'ns at any one time during the off-season (wintei') months when no race meeting is being held. (This ceiling on winter stabiing had been asked by 'Norlhvil le Downs and the Northville Driving ciiib lo quiet fears tliat an unilmited number of hoi'ses would bo stabiod here.)
2. To re-zone the St. Lawrence property for track use for the period' commencing l.'j days before the annual summer racing meeting and ending 15 days after the meeting cioses.
3. To automatically change the zoning classification of the property back to R - l (I'esidcntiai) if and when thei'c is no ionger a race track in Northviile.
The new city charter provides that the ordinance be taijied until the next meeting on Feb. C and that it be advertised in the meantLme so a hearing can be heid prior to the councii's vote on it. Acceptance of the ordinance is anticipated.
Analysis of Recommendation In summary, the Planning
Commission' s recommendation and the proposed ordinance give NorthviUe Downs and the North vine Driving club the re-zoning required for construction of up to 300 stalls for use during the racing season. Construction of such stables—180 stalls prior to the 1956 race meeting and an additional 120 stalls by 1957— had been made a condition for Northville Downs to obtain racing dates this year and next.
It denies the application (>f the two oi'ganizations for permission to use the new barns tor winter slabiing, which must remain in the present area where it has been conducted for years.
The thinking of the majority of Planning Commission members in pi'ohibiting winter stabling on the new property, as judged fi'om individuai remai'ks in the course of the e.xecutive session, was that the Downs wii i be repiaciirg the wooden barns on the pI-esent track propeI-ty in a year or two with masonry barns which can be used for year-around stabiing. It was felt, therefore, that the complaints about poor quality of present winter stables can be remedied by the Downs management with
out spi'oading oul into a new
l20 Attend Hearing The Planning Commission's
hearing was moved to the Fe i -iow.ship Room of the First Presbyterian church when 120 persons appeared at the City Hai i as witnesses and spectators. The order of procedure as estabiish-ed by T. Ji. Carrington, chairman, was for witnesses favoring the re-zoning request lo offer their testimony first, foiiowed by those who opposed the pi'oposal.
Dr. Snow, pi'csident of the Driving club, was the fii'st witness. He was followed by John Carlo, general manager of Northviile Downs, and James H , Ing-lis, Michigan Racing Commis-sioneI-.
Northville Downs Earns Profit of $103,045 In 1955
Northville Downs earned a profit of $l03,045 in l955 be-fore provision for Federal in-come taxes and showed a higher rate of return on gross income than either Hazel Park Harness ore Wolverine Race-way.
These facts are shown in the 1955 .report of the State Rac-ing Commissioner which was issued last week. The report also disclosed a sharp decline in earnings of all ffiree har-ness tracks over the past three years. Northville Downs has suffered a 60% decline since l9S3 iwhen its earnings were $256,496. Hazel 'Park Harness dropped off .46% and Wolver-ine declined 23%.
Northville Downs' 1955 prof-it was ahead of 1954, however, when earnings hit a low of $71,954.
Dr. Snow Issues Denial Dr. Snow started his testimony
by reading en exceitpt from the Jan. 12 Northville Record, as follows: "The primary consideration seems lo have been lost sight of in the controversy that followed Dr. Snqw's'~ attejiipt last November to get the Council to hold a quickie secret meeting
." Dr. Snow then said; " . . . I want lo state definitely that the statement that I attempted to call a quickie secret meeting Is

Why the spiritual qualities of honesty, unselfishness, and obedience ai'e important to an understanding of Truth w i l l be bi'ought out at Christian Science services Sunday.
Scriptural selections to be I'cad in the Lesson-Sermon entiticd "Truth" wi l l inciudo Jesus' parable of the sower and his o.\pian-ation of its meaning for his disciples (Luke 8).
Among tiic corrciativc passages to be I'cad from "Science and I-Jealth with Key to the Sci'ip-turcs" iiv Maiy Baker Eddy is Iho following (272:3-8); "The spiritu.nl sense of truth must be gained before Truth can be understood. Thi.s sense is assimilated only as wc are honest, unselfish, loving and mock. In the soil of an 'honcit and good heart' the .seed must be sown; else it bear-eth not much fruit, for the swinish clement in human natui'e uproots it."
The Golden To.\l is from Psalm.'i (8C:15): "Thou, 0 Lord, art a God full of compassion, and g r a c i o u s , long-suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth."

"AS SIMPLE AS A, B, C"
Rev. Taxis
One improvement suggests another, and thus we get ahead.
We should always keep a spare corner In our minds to give passing hospitality to our friends' opinions.
—Joseph Joubert
In these days that are ti'ouble-some with conflicting ideas, with demands upon lime l)hat make it
impoIilant for us to keep abreast [with the neces-Isary rciiding to keep oui'selves informed of developments in our world; it
'I comes as a re-f r e s h i n g thought to all of us that there ai'c m-any l i t t l e
things that we have learned in eai'ly cirildhood, in the form of some little couplet or some little song, that have spoken to us a truth, a tremendous message tliat we have been able to ifeep in all its simplicily. Often when this moi'e or less depressing feeling gathers I'ound me; through the conflicting demands of one person and the conflicting demands of another; and the total tragedies of life seem to press ai'ound, I think of the enjoyment that my father used to have in placing of many littie placards in his study. Some, I know, you have seen elsewhei'c; like "Quiet, Genius at Work" or "My Time is not your Own"; or yet again the single word "Think". Many of -these little placards in his study were clianged from time to time. But there was one that he kept regularly near his desk. It was brief. And the point, like the others, was packed with a tremendous wallop of trutli in a few short sentences of thought. I have remembered the words a long time. A n d this is what was on the pla-cai'd;
"God said it; Jesus did it; I believe it; That settles i t!"
This I submit lo you, as a reader, lo be very concise way of expressing utmost faith and trust in the basic tilings that undergii'd our faith in religious world, Thoi'e is a ti'emendous logic em inating from a vital faith, so expressed. How often have we wished to have a message of the Bible So compactly put! Here, in deed, is a confession of faith worth a thousand woI'ds for multi-premised logical syllogism. Here also is the answer of faith to skepticism; to indifference; to UIe one who would argue the minutiae of the law; to simply stale' with powerful conviction tiiese four logical statements, drawing a very definite and posi-ilive conclusion.
And I say again lo you, it has been a source of my own personal comfoi't and joy, .many times, to think of these few sentences in terms of the conflicting ideas that surround us. That cutting tlirough it a l l is the light of God's love; the light of God's purposes; the assurance of belief issuing from faith. And so in time of conflict of ideas, when the soul seems to b tempest tossed, and tlie mind distraught, re-

Trojans Defeat Mustangs 75-50 By Bob Montgomery
A sharpshooting and fast Tro jan team Inade the Mustangs of Northviile bow to defeat in a gome that was riddled wiUi fouls last Friday.
The first quarter gave some indication of an even match; how-evei'i as the game progI'essed it was obvious that Clarenceville's aggressiveness, was dimming the spirit of the Northviile quintet.
' The third period opened with the Trojans In the lead by Bl to 32 and s l i l l continuing to pour in the baskets and increase /their score.
Ridling f r o m Clarenceville made it a good night for himself and his team as he netted 27 points, 15 of which were thrown
. from the foul line. Patterson and Teshka were high for Northviile with 13 and 12 points .in the same order. Northviile Clarenceville Norlhvii le Waterloo Newton Biery Nieuwkoop Burns

In aadiuon were Hicnard Root 01 Plymouth, Miss Betsy tJicnstectt 01 Detroit and Will iam Hopkins oi A n n Arbor, naturalist tor the Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority.
A census taken at Ann Arbor on Jan. 2, revcaied 46 species including rulued grouse, a catbird, a flicker, evening grosbeaks, purple finches and other birds rarely seen in winter, or, in iome cases, any otiier time.
On Jan. 3, Harold' Hartley, bird^bander for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, banded a myrlie warbler which came lo
ly. The game was in complete control by Northviile as was witnessed by all onlookers and proved by Coach Johnston as lie I'ested his starters at sevei'al in-te:'vals by using his cnlire staff of substitutes.
The second lialf opened under similar conditions with the Mustangs far ahead in the f.-or;..,; column. Poor passing and the inability to control the backouirds proved to be Holly's downfall as the Must.Tngs continued to score point after point.
Officials Hari'is and Dei-haine \ kept the bo.vs from each club in constant surveillance with their keen cbsei'vation of all fouls and other illegal procedures.
McDaniels of Hoily scored 12 points and was high scoi'cr for ills team.

(EdiJor's nolo:. The Record's reference lo "a quickie secrel meeJing" arose from ihe abor-iive "gei-Jogether" of ihe for-mer village commission al 9 a.m. Salurday, Oct. 29, cai|pd by Commissioner Earl Reed Ihe previous evening af Jer hav-ing received a noiice from Mayor Claude N. Ely ihal a meeiing originally set for Sat
urday had been called off. Reed lold the Record after-
ward thai both Northville Downs and Dr. Snow wanted ihe meeting held Saturday to approve the zoning change. He also quoted Dr. Snow as say-ing when he was told the meeiing had been called off:
"It doesn't matter too much, If the Downs had been on the job Ihey could have got this whole t h i n g settled two months ago."
Another commissioner lold the Record he was informed about the meeting by Reed, speaking over Dr. Snow's pri-vate telephone from the doc-tor's home. A third commis-sioner quoied Reed as having
told him "Dr. Snow wants the meeting Saturday morning."
It is the desire of this paper to report local events accurately. All of the "foregoing statements appeared in ihe issue of Nov. 3, l9S5 and have not been called inaccurate to this time. However, should any of the three commissioners wish to issue new statements about the situation the Record wiil gladly publish them.)

for winter slabiing in the new barns lo be built on the St. Law-i-cnco pi-operly. Dr. Snow testified that "condilions ai'o not sat-isfartoi'y at the ti-ack whci'e they lake summer barns and make them over into winter barns with ai'lificiai fronts." He inferi'ed lhat if the Downs was denied

Race Comm. Inglis Testifies Racing ComInissioncr Ingiis
ui^ged granting tiie re-zoning re-quest to aiieviate the shortage of slail space at the Downs, but said issuance of racirig dales to the track is not con-tingent upon wintering horses here. Winter stails buiit on the present track properly, would merely replace e.\isting stalls and would not increase the total number available for the summer racing Ineet, he said.
Early this week State Racing Commissioner James H. Inglis awarded Norlhville Downs 35 days lor harness racing this summer compared with 38 days last year. The dales are July ID to Aug. 18.
' Carlo lold the commissioii lhat if it gave pei-mi.ssion to build 100 winlor stalls on the St. L a w -I'once properly, the Downs would sti l l winter up to 150 hoi'sos in the pi'csent barns. Snow, Carlo and livglis wore unanimous in describing the present barns as un.'^atisfactory for winter stabling.
Witnesses Favor Re-zoning Several witnesses were called
to testify to the character of personnel employed at the ti'ack dui-iiig the winter. They included Justice E. M . Bogai'l, Chief of Police Joe Denton, James Walker, groom; Harry I>l-ugent, groom; J . Westovei', horse shoer, E . L . Seitz. outer witnesses wiio testified in favor of the rc-zoning were Alex Lyke , Elmer Perrin, Hai-iey Cole, Cl i f f Tui-nbull, A r thur Cai'lson, Dr. J . K . Eastland, G i l Glasson, Al l en Buckley, Jack L. Dewsbui'y and James Green.
Those wlio appeared against the pi'oposal were Frederick J . Coiiins, Rev. John Taxis, Arthur l^rodger, Wii l iam l\lilne, W. C. llecker, Bruce Bradshaw, Don Sober, Walter Couse and Robert H. Shafer.
Taxis Speaks As Individual Mv. Taxis emphasized that he
was speaking as an individu;ii expi'GSsing his pei'sonaj opinion, and that nothing he said was "lo be construed as any official slaleincnl concerning the organization I I'eprosent." Thereupon he asked Racing Commissioner Inglis:
"Is it the prerogative of the Racing Commission to enter"a conmiunity as Racing Commissioner and purpor.t or even convey the idea of a personal interest in the interests of the Driving club or any club in a given locali ty ' ; . . .Is it in order for your oli:ice to be able to Iiiake recommendations to localities recommending favorable action or un-favoi-abic action?"
The Commissioner replied: "It should have been clear to all that my remarks were entirely fi'om the standpoint of "the racing pi-o-gram in Michigan and also for the racing progi'.aim as it exists in NorthviUe. . . . " Recommends Against Re-zoning
M r . Taxis added: " M y recommendation is that the peilion be denied. . . . I maintain that the policy that is best for the City of Northviile is the containment of the present holdings of both the Northviile Downs and ihe Driving ciub, and that for the future best interests of the city in a l l of its cultural aspects, cd ucational aspects, that the best policy for a planning commission ,thinking in terms of ten, fifteen, twenty years, would be to contain this dispropoi'tionate liolding of property in reiation-ship to otiier holdings on an area-wide basis, as far as planning for a city of the future is concerned."
Township Resolution Shafer presented a resolution
by the Northville Township Zoning Commission opposing the proposed re-zoning. It said in part:
i 'Being a closely knit community. . .we iook upon ourseives as adjoining neighboi-s and believe that we should conduct ourseives and our activities in such manner that wc do not ait any time, whenever avoidable, injure each other. We consider the power to zone the use of pi-opei'ty within our areas to impose upon us the nioral, if not the legal, rcspon--slbil i ly of e.xercising tliis power in such manner that in instances where our communities adjoin, our zoning should be co-ordinated, so lhat there results a weli-pianned community for the benefit of a i i
"We the re fo re , . r e spec t fu l ly submit that the City of North-viUe in eonsideriiig the request for the change in zoning, give full and adequate considei'ation to the impact such change would have upon the community at large. Wc shall always hold oui'-selves and our services available to the City of Northville whenever and whei'cvor it is believed that wo can be of assistance."
The Planning Commission voted on two motions covoi-ing the re-zoning. One was by George Zei-bei, seconded i:y Ernie Ebert, lhat the propoi'ty be re-zoned T-1, with the use limitation of 15 days .pI'ior and 1.5 days after the race meeting and a revei'sion clause lo re-zone il back to R - l (residential) when there is no
I longer a race track in Northville. The second was an amendment to eliminate the use restriction in the original motion, offered by
Harvey Ritchie and seconded by Lynn Sull ivan.
The vote on the amendment came finst and received the affirmative votes of Rilohie, Sul l i -.van and Carrington. Those voting against it were Eaton, Woodruff, Ebert, Zeitbei, Hoehl and Wagenschutz.
The contmission then voted unanimously in favor of the Zer-bei motion.

THE ROCK OF AGES Most all of us are familiar
with the painti n g o f t h e "Rock of Ages". Have you ever e v e r noticed that there are two versions of t h i s picture ? The one pic
_ lurrf shows the picture of the rock, shaped like a cross, rising up out of the water with a person clinging to it. Under the picture is inscribed the word "Saved", The other picture has exactly the same setting, but on this one the person is clinging lo the cross with one hand and with the other is reaching down and grasping the hand of another. As I thought about that, I realized that in these two versions wo have a graphic picture of all Christians, One (Christian having found the Saviour, enjoying peace annd security in Him, Beiow her could be inscribed the word "Saved" for having put her trust in Him she is promised eternal life. The second is the Christian who has found security in Christ and is concei'ned about helping someone else to that place of ipeace and safely as Weil, M y Christian friend, I wonder which picture represents you'/ Are you concerned enough about others to speak to them about the Saviour who died that they might enjoy elernal life? You have the only Gospel that can save them. Why not share it with them?

ties attributed-the fire to an unattended ,55-gallon metal "salamander" ; left burning in the house, The salamanders, large metal drums filled with burning coke, are used to take the frost out of the earth floors inside the houses in preparation for pouring concrete slab floors.
Straw was also strewn about the dirt floor to absorb moisture and hold the heat, Offieiais speculate that either a spark hitting the neaiiby straw, or combustible gases given off by the burning coke caused the fire.
