More Tigers coverage on Pages 5, 26, 27 and 28.Journal photo by GEORGE WALDMAN

Tiger Stadium gets its last Opening Day spring cleaning, in preparation for Monday's game with Minnesota.

Last rite of springThey will dust off the

crown jewel of Detroit sports on Monday and one last time we will journey to Opening Day at Tiger

Stadium.To the grounds where Cobb,

with his sharpened, gleaming spikes, struck terror into every opposing mid-infielder.

Where Gehringer, Cochrane and Greenberg sent lofty home runs into a sunlit summer sky.

Where Prince Hal dominated all who dared step in against his overpowering repertoire of pitches.

Where Kaline became the youngest and shyest of batting champions.

Where Cash and Lary chased the hated Yankees into September.

Where Horton, McLain and Lolich ascended to greatness.

Where Fidrych engaged in horsehide monologues and land­scaping on the hill.

Where Gibson, Trammell and W hitaker ran away with a cham­pionship and the heart of a city.

Where Sparky exited with a touch of class.

And where men named Clark and Higginson and Thompson will play out a final summer.

We will go with our sons and daughters as our fathers went with us. And then we will move on to a new and shining place where fathers and children of the next generation will stare in wonder a t that shock of green that is the surest harbinger of Michigan’s spring.

We will move on. But we will remember.

How could we ever forget?— Tom Schram

TVTHshngsMoore’s back, and that’s the ‘Truth’

This week your television can give you the awful truth in any number of ways, not the least of which are Michael Moore’s latest series effort and a 20th-anniversary modernization of the documentary “Scared Straight!”

For your amusement and amazement, Cher is the focus of a 90-minute edi­tion of the VH-1 series “Behind the Music” at 9 tonight (preceding her appear­ance with Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, Brandy, LeAnn Rimes and Mary J. Blige for “VH-1 Divas Live ‘99,” at 9 p.m. Tuesday), and Comedy Central is airing a three-hour marathon of episodes from Leslie Neilsen’s short-lived but side-splitting ABC series “Police Squad!,” the show that spawned the big- screen movies, at 8 p.m. Friday.

If you like, you can begin laughing now.I “The Masters,”

4 today, CBS (Channel 62 in Detroit) — In the words of one sportswriter, the lords of Augusta National “Tiger- proofed” the Masters course this year, making changes both subtle and severe to prevent a repeat of the historic (and somewhat embarrassing) 18-under- par triumph Mr. Woods achieved two years ago. But can even a modified Masters tame David Duval, arguably the world’s best golfer at the moment, after Sunday’s final-round coverage is completed? It seems like an awful lot of hubbub over an ill-fit­ting green jacket, but if it makes the boys happy

M ichael Moore is still mixing it up.

■ “The Awful Truth,” 9 tonight, Bravo — Michael Moore — pride of Flint, working man’s pal and self- proclaimed status-quo agitator — has landed a 12-week run on hoity- toity Bravo, of all networks, to unfurl his brand of biting satire and social commentary without any of the net­work censorship that his “TV Nation” series received from NBC and Fox. Does Bravo have any idea what they’re getting into? Taped ear­lier this year in Chicago, the new show will combine “TV Nation”-style remote segments on a variety of issues and injustices with Moore’s interaction with a live studio audi­

ence. Bravo may be available in only about one- third of American

MCrARLIN households, butdon’t expect that

Highlights fact to derailMoore’s mission. Downsize this!.

■ “Family Guy,” 8:30 tonight, Fox (Channel 2 in Detroit) —- Fox, which seems to be giving Ted Turner a run for his money as the proprietor of the real Cartoon Network, unveiled this oddball animated series to the sec­ond-highest ratings of any new show in its history, trailing only the 1990 debut of “The Simpsons.” But “Family Guy” premiered following last January’s Super Bowl; a still photo of you or me could do at least a 30 share in the shadow of the Big Game. The true test for the Griffin family of Quahog, R.I. — a household in which the baby, Stewie, has the mind and mouth of a Peter Lorre and the dog is the smartest one in the bunch — comes with this spring trial in one of the network’s most protected and coveted time slots (behind “The Simpsons,” of course).■ “Love Letters,” 9 p.m. Monday, ABC (Channel 7 in Detroit) — If you’ve seen A.R. Gurney’s poignant, popular two-character play on stage

United/A&E

loan Gruffudd is a young, unproven officer trying to save th e British fleet in “ Horatio Hornblower” a t 8 ton igh t on A&E.

(I recall one traveling version that paired the stars of TV’s “Hart to Hart,” Robert Wagner and Stefanie Powers), you might agree it’s proba­bly the last theatrical production anyone would try to turn into a TV- movie. Hey, it’s just a man and a woman sitting side by side reading old notes! Ah, but never underesti­mate the creativity of those titans of the tiny tube. Gurney was persuaded to adapt his work into a moving two- hour teleplay starring Steven Weber (“Wings”) and Laura Linney (“The Truman Show”) as lifelong friends Andrew and Melissa, beginning his script shortly after Melissa’s death and tracing their relationship

Meet David Blaine, a masterful 26-year-old illusionist who loves to turn his tricks in the street, spellbinding passers-by in New York City, Memphis, Nashville and New Orleans as well as natives in Haiti and the Venezuelan rain forest in his second one-man special for ABC.■ “Scared Straight! Twenty Years Later,” 8 p.m. Thursday, UPN (Channel 50 in Detroit) — I refuse to believe that I’m old enough to remember when producer Arnold Shapiro’s original “Scared Straight!” documentary won awards and stirred a nationwide controversy. (Sigh. I am.) But two decades later, an updated, two-hour anniversary special (narrated by Danny Glover) shows us what happened to the New Jersey prison inmates and the way­ward juveniles who were brought together behind bars for a brutal les­son on the realities of crime and pun­ishment.

ff l re ad a book in s tea d

recent openings“A Walk on the Moon” O This is a handsome, humane period piece that gets around its leisurely pace and overall predictability with fully dimensioned acting and careful crafts­manship from actor Tony Goldwyn. Moonwalking, skinny-dipping and Jefferson Airplane tracks yank us back to 1969 and make us glad to take the trip. R. — Matt Black “The Matrix” O This stimulating sci-fi adventure brims with style, (not since “Men In Black” have sunglasses been used to such good effect) and substance (a tinge of “The Terminator” placed on a mythical plateau). With its mixture of won­drous visuals and mystical story­telling, “The Matrix” leaves an indeli­ble impression. R. — Michelle Banks “The Out-of-Towners” £□ This movie wasn’t that great the first time around in 1970, and while this remake with Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn is easier to take, it’s pretty tired, too. PG-13. — M. Black “10 Things I Hate About You” O This cutesy teen romance is a modern interpretation of William Shakespeare’s play “The Taming of the Shrew,” starring Julia Stiles as the fiercely sarcastic Katrina Stratford, whose tempestuous atti­tude toward her high school contem­poraries, mainly boys, is a thorn in the side of her perkier, more popular younger sister Bianca (Larisa Oleynik), who yearns to go out on one date or two but can’t, due to the stern decree of the girls’ father.

“Never Been Kissed” OBy Matt BlackSpecial to the Journal

Drew Barrymore is on a career roll that picks up speed with “Never Been Kissed.” She’s not only kissable but immensely huggable

in this romantic comedy where the emphasis is on romance, and Barrymore’s shy yet radiant' smile is all that’s needed to certify her latest as a high-grade date movie.

She plays a shy Chicago Sun- Times copy editor who looks young enough to pass herself off as a high-schooler on an undercover assignment. The film apparently hasn’t heard that copy editors don’t have their own offices and personal assistants; otherwise, though, it pushes all the right buttons.

Barrymore’s Josie never has been kissed — not really kissed. The assignment gives her the chance to do high school over again with more savvy than the first time around when she was a pudgy geek with braces. Here she’s almost as bashful, but a lot wiser; her insights into Shakespeare’s games with disguises in “As You Like It” draw more than a passing glance from a handsome English teacher.

And when she finds the same old social tyrants playing the same cruel jokes on sensitive kids, she intervenes. Young audiences will root for her, and there’s every rea­son to do so in this teen-pleasing confection. Rated R.

Californians don’t exactly celebrate the old-fashioned way. Drug deal­ers, a suspicious cop and an angry bouncer make this holiday a hell for our young stars.

The 24 hours is shown from three points of view: an underpaid super­market clerk working part-time as a drug dealer to avoid eviction; her British co-worker whose trip to Vegas turns dangerous; and two bickering gay soap opera actors who participate in a drug sting in order to wipe their police record clean. Individually their situations grow extremely worse before they get better, and therein lies the bulk of the fun in “Go.” The young up- and-eomers — led by Sarah Polley, Jay Mohr, Taye Diggs and Scott Wolf — are attractive and never miss a beat. Wolf’s turn as a jeal­ous gay lover, for example, is a gar­gantuan departure from “Party of Five.” Director Doug Liman’s fol­low-up to the less hip “Swingers” is a blatant homage to Quentin

“The Children of Heaven” OFilm is playing no small role in

the growing rapproachment between the United States and Iran, even when the films are small in scale — as so many of them are, including Majid Majidi’s utterly appealing “The Children of Heaven.” The kids in question are a brother and sister, who live with their parents in a poor neighbor­hood in Tehran. When Ali loses Zarah’s only pair of shoes while taking them home from the repair shop, it’s a virtual catastrophe for the kids. They feel they can’t break the terrible news to their parents, who already are stressed over their lack of money.

Michigan’s a glass actIranian film a gem

By Kathlyn HoodJournal S ta ff Writer

For the 19th year, Michigan is celebrating glass as an art form.

Glass Month is observed every April “to promote public awareness about glass and its artistic uses,” says Herb Babcock, chair of the state’s Glass Month committee and chair of the Center for Creative Studies Crafts Department.

It’s also intended to introduce Michigan people who use glass for their artistic expression.

Galleries throughout the state have exhibits. One of them, at the DIA, fea­tures 70 pieces of 20th-century studio glass. In “A Goblet Bonanza,” noon-4 next Sunday at Center for Creative Studies, “magnificent and zany” goblets will be created by students and sold.

For information on other Glass Month activities, call 310-664-7446.

M OVIES, from P a g e 19sneakers during their staggered school hours, switching fanatically in an alley near their school. But Mir Farrokh Hashemian’s saucer­eyed Ali knows he’ll have to come up with some other plan.

What’s touching about the kids is their delicacy and the fact that Majidi gives them credit for behav­ing morally and trying to do the right thing — for instance, deli­cately backing away when they discover the shoes but realize that the girl who got them needs them more than Zarah. This little charmer of a film will make you realize why Americans are discov­ering the new Iranian cinema. PG. — M. Black

“Cookie’s Fortune” O“Cookie’s Fortune” is Robert

Altman Lite. It finds the multi­track director in a warm, audience- pleasing mood as he juggles a screenful of small-town Southern eccentrics boiling over when the town matriarch, Patricia Neal’s Cookie, is found dead from a gun­shot wound. The dignity with which her handyman, played by Charles S. Dutton, faces a murder charge convinces all the right- thinking people of Holly Falls that he’s innocent; in fact, the charac­ters are defined by their reaction to his incarceration.

These include Ned Beatty as the apologetic sheriff and fishing buddy, Liv Tyler as the rebellious and lusty grandniece and Glenn Close as the controlling harpy.

It’s as if Altman is redoing “Short Cuts” or “Nashville,” but this time playing it for droll mis­chief instead of bite. With Dutton’s low-key naturalism anchoring the shenanigans of the others,“Cookie’s Fortune” is a disarming delight. R. — M. Black

“ Foolish”(not reviewed)With stars such as Andrew

“Dice” Clay and rapper Master P, you just know this comedy about two brothers trying to work their way up in the world — via stand- up comedy and low-level gangster exploits — will be less than rever­ent. R.

New album is more than an ‘Echo’ of the pastPETTY, fro m P a g e 8

“The Waiting” and “You Got Lucky” had made the band “sort of victims of our own success in some way, in that when we did play it was usually in a giant place with all these expec­tations and preconceptions people had.”

The antidote came in the form of a 20-show residency at San Francisco’s Fillmore during early 1997. The Heartbreakers tinkered with their set lists, playing seldom-heard album cuts and seemingly any cover song that popped into their heads.

It Was great fun, Petty said, and through that “we did reconnect with something. It was more about what we could pull out of the band than ‘can we make it through another show?’ And we felt like we had a really good rock ‘n’ roll band, and we were kind of glad to be in it.”

Instilled with that spirit, Petty and the Heartbreakers — guitarist Mike Campbell, bassist Howie Epstein and keyboardist Benmont Tench, plus cohorts Steve Ferrone on drums and former Stooges member Scott Thurston on several instru­ments — set to work on “Echo.”

The original idea, Petty said, was to have the material well-prepared, “so we wouldn’t have to overdub much and we could concentrate on live takes.” Campbell, who collabo­rated with Petty on both of the solo albums, handled the engineering of the songs, which meant that often “there were only musicians there” while the band recorded.

“It felt very informal,” Petty said, “and it was usually pretty produc­tive.” So productive, in fact, that some songs, such as “Swingin’,” were made up on the spot. “That just came to me while we were working on something else,” said Petty, who

brought in co-producer Rick Rubin when he felt like the sessions needed more discipline. “I kinda came up with these chords and just started to play them, and the band fell in on it . and I just improvised the lyric.

“When we played it back, we were all kind of surprised how good a song it was. So we listened to it one more time, straightened out this or that, and then we did one more take and* that was the record — before we hardly knew the song. It completely freaked me out, but in a good way.”

Though the Heartbreakers have' laid low since their last tour in 1994, they’ll "be plenty visible in support of “Echo.”

Though he’s not one to ponder the meanings of his songs, Petty and the band taped an episode of VH-l’s “Storytellers” (which airs May 16). The group is marking the album’s release with an appearance Tuesday on “Late Night with David Letterman” and some small-hall shows this week in New York, fol­lowed by gigs in London and Germany before launching a 60-city North American tour in June.

The group will certainly play lots of its hits, Petty promises, but at the same time he expects that the free­dom to experiment will be part of the upcoming shows as well.

“We’ve gotten used to not playing the same show night after night,” he said. “I hope some of that feeling comes along with it, some of that freedom to explore. I’ve seen people that have been around a long time, and they just fall into routine and self-parody.

“That’s just not where we want to wind up; we really believe in this music, this rock ‘n’ roll music that we’re playing, and we want to keep it fresh and avoid any sort of routine to it.”

AnnouncementsA R E Y O U TIR ED of politicians that are more concerned about each others per­sonal lives than the welfare of our nation and world? Corporations that have undo influence on our courts and politicians? Labor laws that are repressive and that stack the deck against working people? Would you like to change all this?

C O M E A N D SEE what the Labor Party is all about. We believe that all working people are entitled to a fair share of our countries wealth. We stand for a national health care program, keeping social security out of the hands of Wall Street, progressive labor laws that level the play­ing field between working people and their bosses, and many other social issues that are lavorable to working peo­ple and the poor.

W E D O N 'T W O R R Y about politicians personal lives, only how they stand and vote on the issues.

C O M E TO our next meeting on Wed., May 5, at 7:00 p.m. at the UNITE Hall at 1550 Howard, just west of Trumbull.

APRIL 11, 1999 THE DETROIT SUNDAY JOURNAL PAGE 25

Clark has the right touchendel Clark has made an immediate impact.

The veteran left wing had four goals and an

assist in his first eight games, all Detroit victories, after being acquired at the March 23 trading deadline from Tampa Bay for backup goaltender Kevin Hodson and a draft choice.

The 32-year-old native of Kelvington, Saskatchewan, also Joe Kocur’s hometown, gives the Red Wings a strong, physical winger who’s good in the corners, goes to the front of

Pa u lH arris

the net and has a scoring touch that includes one of the NHL’s best wrist shots. He’s scored over 300 NHL goals and had 28 with the Lightning this season.

“Wendel’s a great player. He brings a lot of different things to the table,” said M artin Lapointe. “He’s a gritty, tough player with a scoring touch. There’s not a lot of players in the league like that, and he’s one of them.He’s a big key to our team right now.”

Of course, Clark is quite familiar to Red Wings fans because of his 11 seasons-plus with the Maple Leafs, three as captain. It m ust seem dis­concerting to the Joe Louis Arena crowd to be wildly cheering the m an at whom it directed chants of “Wendy!” a few years ago. That’s exactly what happened. During the warm-ups before C lark’s and Chris Chelios’ Red Wings’ Joe Louis debut, the two joked together about who would get cheered and who would get booed.

But, of course, it was all cheers.

“Things are ju s t falling into place. I’m getting in the right place a t the right time and getting lucky,” he said. “The puck control on this team is outstanding. I ju st try to cre­ate havoc in front of the net.”

And after D etroit Coach Scotty Bowman’s predictable line jug­gling, Clark seems to have settled in on a line centered by Sergei Fedorov, with Doug Brown on the right wing.

Bowman has liked w hat he has seen of Clark.

“He’s a good goal scorer. He doesn’t do anything fancy,” he said. “He’s got a good wrist shot. He’s got a lot of confi­dence going in on the net.”

Last summer the Lightning signed Clark, a free agent, to a one-year deal worth $1.8 million with a club option for a second year. If Clark continues to

play the same way in the playoffs, it will be a no-brainer for Detroit to pick up the option for next season.

Samuelsson’s debut

Until the Lions finally make the Super Bowl, this is it: The NFL Draft is the Super Bowl.

And if Lions head coach Bobby Ross botches this draft, it might be it for him, too. He and Lions vice president of play­er personnel Ron Hughes like Brigham Young University offensive tackle John Tait, but so does Arizona.

If the Cardinals take him, the Lions are likely to pick Jevon Kearse, a defensive end-outside linebacker.

The Lions would be better served with Tait, who could help their depleted offensive line. Either way Ross said the Lions will likely select someone for the trenches.

“Where we’re sitting, we can get a darn good player on either side,” Ross said.

Besides an offensive lineman, the Lions still need line­backers and a running back for the future, a project who can someday replace Barry Sanders.

The draft will be held Saturday.— Eric T. Pate

Red Wing fans already have gotten good looks a t Clark, Chelios and goal- tender Bill Ranford. The fourth player acquired a t th e ' trade deadline, defensem an Ulf Samuelsson, was scheduled to make his Red Wings debut Sunday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

As a New York Ranger, he suffered a broken foot a few days before the deal th a t brought him to Detroit.

“I t’s tough when you th ink you might not be part of the playoffs,” said Samuelsson, who turned 34 March 26. “The situation has not been that great the last couple of years in New York.

“Now I come to a team that has won the last two years and that has a real­ly great chance to do some good dam­age again this year. . . . I had heard my name in the rumors, and I was of two minds. Half of me wanted to stay in New York with my family and help the Rangers fight for a playoff spot, and half of me wanted to go somewhere where I’d have a really outstanding chance to win the Stanley Cup.”

He was shocked to see Chelios, Clark and Ranford become Red Wings the

expect to see that many players of that caliber all end up with the same team,” he said.

The abrasive defenseman, who may be the NHL’s most hated player, will be an unrestricted free agent after the season.

“I t’s not something I’ve thought much about. My focus right now is on getting healthy, getting back into the lineup and getting ready for the play­offs,” said Samuelsson.

Pistons have lost way, but Vaught could help

Two straight losses at home last week certainly would make even the most dedicated Pistons fan wonder where this NBA team is headed, even after it

bounced back behind 30 points from Grant Hill to nip the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday.

Rick Sund, who is running the show at the moment, isn’t exactly Jack McCloskey, and the Doug Collins experiment collapsed under his hyper­kinetic personality. If you were paying attention at the time, it was Sund who

squandered something like five first- round picks back in Dallas when the Mavericks were a rising expansion team. He drafted the likes of Uwe Blab and Bill Wennington, a solid backup but certainly no first-rounder.

Since Collins’ departure, Sund has spent Bill Davidson’s millions on free agents Christian Laettner, Loy Vaught and Jud Buechler, and he has re-signed Jerry Stackhouse and Bison Dele, who was no prize when he called himself Brian Williams.

At the time of the transactions, Laettner was recovering from Achilles tendon surgery, Vaught was coming

off back surgery and Dele was returning from a trip he had taken abroad to locate his inner self.

Laettner has helped out in the few games when he’s been healthy,Vaught has found a seat at the end of the bench and Dele is the most frustrating 6-10 center anyone ever coached.

Buechler is a solid sub who can shoot the open 3-pointer. Stack­house, who thinks he’s an All-Star, still hasn’t learned how to (a.) shoot, (b.) handle the ball and (c.) play defense. Stackhouse is a great athlete and could become an All- S tar by putting in heavy summer work on the a,b,c’s of his game.

Is it any wonder that Coach Alvin Gentry said: “We are going to live and die with Grant Hill.”

Even Gentry can’t dodge all the salvos of criticism that come his way. For whatever reasons, he isn’t con­vinced Vaught, now healthy as a horse, can play. But he hasn’t con­vinced fans that Vaught isn’t as good as Don Reid who is starting at power

forward.Reid is a competitor, but he’ll get his

six to eight points and five rebounds whether he plays eight minutes or 30 minutes. Vaught has proven that, given playing time, he can produce around 12 points and 10 rebounds a

game while playing solid defense.Some Piston insiders suggest that

Gentry never wanted Vaught in the first place. Well, he’s stuck with him now and might as well play the guy.

Sund’s often faulty judgment hasn’t produced the two things the Pistons need most at the moment, a solid point guard and an outside shooter who can nail open jump shots. Jud Buechler is a solid addition, but he’s not a starter, and his shot release isn’t quick enough to score 20 points regu­larly.

Joe Dumars must drag his aging body out there night after night to give the Pistons any sort of outside shooting presence, and much of the time he’s asked to play point guard.

Lindsey Hunter simply isn’t a point guard. He’s a competitor and a fine defender with a spotty jump shot and limited floor vision. Hunter and the team probably would be better served by making him the sixth man. Certainly he has the energy to change the tempo of the game, and he isn’t shy about shooting. Unfortunately neither is Stackhouse.

Dumars will retire at the end of this abbreviated season to take a job in the front office. My bet is he’ll be made general manager in charge of finding talent and making deals. If that hap­pens it would be a good choice. Dumars knows the game, knows tal­ent and, as a businessman himself, wouldn’t take long to pick up what it takes to con another GM out of a top talent for a pittance.

Tigers go forth with an improved staffBy Tom MorrellSpecial to the Journal

LAKELAND, Fla. — A thumbnail view of the ’99 squad.Pitchers:

Justin Thompson: He needs to step up his game and he knows it. For the Tigers to contend, he needs to be not just good, but really good.

Brian Moehler: The staff’s unde­clared ace. Looks impressive most times. When he’s not, he fools the hit­ters into thinking he is. Expect a fine season from him.

Willie Blair: Better than ’98, when he was the NL’s losingest pitcher? Of course. As good as ’97, when he led the Tigers in wins? Highly doubtful.

Seth Greisinger: He’s hurt and I’m not sold on him as a starter yet, any­ways. He looked shaky and mediocre in successive outings this spring. The Tigers can’t do much better?

Bryce Florie: Not my idea of a fifth starter. He was inconsistent last year, and he’ll have to change that up north to change minds.

Masao Kida: A big payday for a mid­dle reliever. If he works as much as he wants to without his arm falling off, he’ll be a bargain.

C.J. Nitkowski: He showed potential his first stint with Detroit. He started fulfilling it in Houston. A needed bullpen lefty to spell Sean Runyan.

Sean Runyan: With Nitkowski, he’ll keep the Tigers competitive in lefty- righty situations. The AL games- pitched leader last year, he’ll see even more action in ’99.

Todd Jones: In midseason Cardiac Kid form, getting into trouble before getting the third out. He rarely gets burned. Think of him as trade deadline bait.

Matt Anderson: If Jones gets traded, it’s because Anderson has grown into the role of closer. He showed great stuff in his ’98 call-up. Expect continued progress.

Doug Brocail: A top setup man in ’97 and ’98. Could close if needed. So steady he’s overlooked. Appreciate what he brings to the team.Catchers:

Brad Ausmus: If healthy, he’ll catch the majority of games this season. He’s relatively young (30), has great game- calling skills and never should have left Detroit.

Bill Haselman: He won’t see as much action with Ausmus in the picture, but

he’ll see his share. He’ll make his money, OK?Infielders:

Tony Clark: Needs a breakout year. Like with Thompson, good won’t be good enough. He’s got the skills — including the attitude — to pull it off.

Damion Easley: Last year I doubted his ability to put together two good years in a row. Not anymore. If Detroit loses him, the club’s sunk.

Deivi Cruz: With a healed ankle, can he improve both at the plate and on the field? Conventional wisdom says yes. I’ll withhold judgment for now.

Dean Palmer: More money and homers than Travis Fryman, but more strikeouts and errors, too. Better than Joe Randa, but worth the cost?

Frank Catalanotto: The right-side-of- the-infield sub. Decent glove, persis­tent at the plate, suspect arm.

Luis Garcia: With Jason Wood out with a broken arm, Detroit’s left-side- of-the-infield sub unless Randy Smith deals for someone better.Outfielders:

Juan Encarnacion: He earned the starting berth in left field. If he can play with poise, power and defense, he’s a fixture for years to come.

Brian Hunter: Had a great spring at the bat and on the bases, less so in the field. With Gabe Kapler developing, Hunter’s trade bait for a contender.

Bobby Higginson: Solid defensively, but needs to not press at the plate. Otherwise he’ll be trade bait. Capable of steady performance, but spectacu­lar? Dunno.

Gregg Jefferies: Designated hitter. Would rather play in the field, but there’s no room. Could get some starts at third. May not last long.

Karim Garcia: Hit a ton this spring, but was streaky. Could be this genera­tion’s Gates Brown. Could even push Higginson for the right field job. Etcetera:

Larry Parrish, manager: Good luck not getting depressed by losses like Buddy Bell. Doesn’t impress me as the man to take the Tigers to a pennant.

Alan Trammell and Lance Parrish, coaches: They have PR value, but Trammell could be heir apparent to the manager’s job. Lance coaching third? Stranger things have happened.

Tiger Stadium: Death by corporate neglect. How sad. It never had to be this way. Even if the team stinks, go to appreciate the ballpark.

Five stadiums will be long gone this seasonBy A nthony MormileSportsTicker

JERSEY CITY, New Jersey — If you build it, they will come.

In search of ways to generate rev­enues, baseball teams are following that creed and building ballparks. Five teams are on the verge of trading in their current parks, each in an attempt to spark profit and compete on base­ball’s uneven playing field.

‘You have to build stadiums because you have to have the revenue to be able to compete,” Milwaukee Brewers General Manager Sal Bando said.

This season the Seattle Mariners will move into a new stadium. The Brewers, Tigers, Giants and Astros will have new homes in 2000. All five teams can expect a final season filled with pomp and circumstance as the old sta­diums close their doors.

The Mariners will move to Safeco Field July 15. It will feature a retractable roof and touches of the

People made the park memorableRichard L. ShookSpecial to the Journal

Know what we need?It would be really nice to be able to

borrow a Golf Dome’s plastic bubble for about two weeks in early April.

So we could fit it over Tiger Stadium (and next year Comerica Park) in time for the opening day of the baseball sea­son.

That way the Detroit Tigers wouldn’t have to open on the road as they have for the last seven years.

Snug that sucker over the stadium and install temporary double doors to keep the air pressure in, and Tiger fans wouldn’t have to take a chance on watching a 2-4 team play its first home game of the season.

It’s a wise and prudent move to have Detroit open away from home, given the peculiarities of early April Michigan weather.

But there’s nothing like the thrill of an 0-0 team offering up its hopes for a new beginning to the home folks.

Somehow 2-4 just doesn’t make it. The thrill is gone, baby.

Okay, so it’s not practical to put a golf bubble over the Stadium. But maybe we could get one of those companies that make plastic freezer bags to make us a giant sandwich bag to use on bad- weather days.

Of course, where to store it would be a problem. Nobody’s making kitchen cabinets that big any more.

Maybe I could give up my parking space in the new stadium lot — the one the Tigers aren’t going to give me — so they could store it outdoors.

It isn’t so much the games that are

modern and traditional. Brick and iron work will adorn the outside while unimpeded sight lines and extra-wide concourses highlight the inside.

Few teams in baseball needed a new stadium more than the Mariners, who have been forced to play in the dilapi­dated Kingdome since their inception in 1977. The building is steeped in one tradition: fair and foul balls hitting hanging speakers and bouncing in unpredictable directions.

Mariners Manager Lou Piniella said, “We look forward to starting the season in the Kingdome but at the same time we look forward to our new park.”

When the Giants moved to San Francisco, they spent two seasons at Seals Stadium before moving to Candlestick Park, where they have been ever since. Few stadiums have ever been made less suitable for base­ball by fickle weather, specifically swirling winds.

But winds didn’t lead to the biggest

news story from Candlestick. Ju s t before Game Three of the 1989 World Series, an earthquake rocked the stadi­um, causing a six-inch crack in the upper deck.

The new ballpark, Pacific Bell Park, is scheduled to open next April. Nestled in the China Basin, it is the first pri­vately financed major league ballpark in 35 years.

After the season the Houston Astros will move out of the Astrodome. Opened April 9, 1965, it was the world’s first all-weather, multi-purpose dome.

The Astros will take the field at The Ballpark at Union Station sometime during the 2000 season. It’s a 42,000- seat facility with a retractable roof. It will feature throwback characteristics like a flag pole in play and grass behind the warning track.

In Milwaukee, more than 15,000 fans showed up for the groundbreaking for Miller Park, which will seat 43,000 when it opens. The four-tiered struc-

special but the ambiance, the people and the memories.

There are so many people who become special over the years whom you greet again on opening day. And some who remain alive in memory.

Thankfully, A1 Kaline is still around. As his career wound down, he went out of his way to help the people who cov­ered the team all the time.

There are pitchers like Bill Gullickson, a pro’s pro. “Gully” pitched from memory during his Detroit years. It was a thrill to watch him paint cor­ners and pitch to weaknesses. A good person.

We’ve had so many good managers, too, such as Ralph Houk. Visiting writ­ers used to curse him because he spout­ed platitudes and never bad-mouthed his players. It didn’t take long to real­ize that when Houk stopped praising or talking about one of his players, this was a player who was dead meat.

And Tony Phillips. He was a shriek- er, with a high-pitched voice which

could cut metal. But he had a laugh which would light up a living room — and just walking into his clubhouse made you smile with anticipation.

There was the late Wally Moses, hit­ting coach with Detroit during Mayo Smith’s tenure.

“I made a bet with Mayo,” Wally would proudly announce nearly every spring. “I bet him a case of champagne I would get (a Detroit regular) to hit .250 this year. I told him he might as well bring the champagne in now.”

And how many years did we have the privilege of greeting Sparky Anderson?

He may have been 200 yards wide of the target on a player’s ability now and then, but he was always on the bulls- eye when it came to character, far more important.

Sparky would tolerate one or two louses — almost unavoidable on a team of 25 players — but he rarely kept them around for more than a year or two. It was always a treat going into his clubhouses.

ture will incorporate one of the city’s finest traditions — a brew pub. Miller Park also will have a roof that can open or close in a 10-minute span.

Where does Bernie Brewer fit into all this?

Bernie Brewer is baseball’s most unique mascot. He slides down a chute and into a beer stein after every Milwaukee homer in the current Brewers’ home at County Stadium.

It is also the only ballpark in the majors where you can buy a ticket and sit next to a chimney. Ask for section 21, row 35, seat 1 and you’ll have old smoky right beside you.

“I think the atmosphere in County Stadium is what makes it special,” Bando said, “People in Milwaukee enjoy their summers and use the ball­park as a venue to have a good time. Where as you go to other parks, for example Fenway Park, and they are fans of baseball. They come to watch baseball. ”

Tiger Stadium: So dear but...PATE, From Page 28

The Tigers would have been better off in a walk-in closet. Maybe they would have had more room.

Okay, I’ll admit it. Tiger Stadium is a real dump.

For the past 20 years, the Tigers’ organization has done everything to prolong its cosmetic appeal.

They changed the seats from green to orange and blue. They added the Tiger Plaza. They even slapped a few fresh coats of paint around the exterior so that it could look brand new.

Nothing worked.Owner Mike Ilitch gets his new ball­

park next season. It will be named Comerica Park, which itself will earn Mr. Ilitch millions and be a reminder of how baseball has become a business.

When Comerica Park opens, chances are that guys like myself and George Pate will be left out in the cold, not being able to get tickets.

But should the common folk who once watched at Tiger Stadium be locked out, they will have a plethora of good memories.

Willie Horton, Kirk Gibson, Mickey Stanley, Jim Northup, Brian Hunter, Ron LeFlore and Milt Cuyler were among those whom I cheered from the bleachers in summers past.

This year why not clear some space from the busy schedule and visit Tiger Stadium for a final time? Sons and daughters, take your dad.

I wish I could.Though I finally convinced my dad to

forgive the Tigers their past transgres­sions, George T. Pate died of a heart attack three weeks ago. We, a dad and his son, were going to Tiger Stadium.

He’ll miss the ballpark at Michigan Avenue and Trumbull, too.

One last time at the comerAFP

Tiger Stadium, home of Detroit Tigers baseball since 1912, begins its final season Monday. The Tigers will move into brand-new Comerica Park at the start of the 2000 season.

so blind as to join the “Save Tiger Stadium” brigade. Rather than making a human chain to give Tiger Stadium a huge hug and fussing over renovations, the preservationists should have toured the ballpark’s underside.

In 1996, on my first assignment at Tiger Stadium, my mind was totally changed in favor of any new ballpark for the Tigers.

While covering a series between the Tigers and the New York Yankees, I made my way onto the field and was hanging out near the dugout. It was rainy and very damp.

In the hallway leading to the club­house from the dugout, I noticed that there were electrical wires hanging overhead.

There were television cables every­where, too. While the regulars walked along as if nothing was wrong, I won­dered, “Is this a safety risk?”

Once in the clubhouse, I was further amazed: 25 major-leaguers in very cramped space.

See PATE, Page 27

Nostalgia flows for — a jewel with

or the people he thought practiced it.My father chose never to partake in

one of the greatest rites of summer — taking his four sons to a ball game — rather than compromise his beliefs.

But I wanted to see a baseball game with him, and my efforts were relent­less. Finally, after months of discus­sion, there was some progress: He admitted that Tiger Stadium was one of baseball’s last jewels.

“I don’t have nothing against Tiger Stadium now,” George grumbled. “That’s a nice place. I didn’t say tha t I didn’t like it.”

George was right.Tiger Stadium is a nice place, a t least

on one level. It’s uniquely Detroit, and, one day before its final Opening Day, I want to admit that I’ll miss it. In fact, when they shut the gates for good Sept.

27 after the Tigers’ home finale against Kansas City, my eyes will fill with tears and I’ll probably weep.

Excuse me for loving Tiger Stadium for what it is.

From the ramps that make little chil­dren feel as if they’re climbing Mt. Everest to the steel girders in the grandstands tha t create an obstructed view, Tiger Stadium was different. Built in 1912, it was hardly an archi­tect’s dream.

Each time that Tiger Stadium was expanded, it looked like a child’s Lego building project.

But when you put sentiment aside, you have to confront an unpleasant truth: In some ways Tiger Stadium is a dump, which is why it needed to be replaced.

I love the old ballpark, but I wasn’t

E arlier this year I talked with my father, the late George T. Pate, about going to a base­ball game a t Tiger Stadium.

After all, this is the final year of the old ballpark on the corner of Michigan Avenue and Trumbull, and we had never seen a ball game there together.

George was an old-school Detroiter,

who had grown up on the city’s east side. He remembered when Walter Briggs owned the ball club. Briggs’ racial policies and the fact th a t the Tigers were the second-to-last team in the majors to integrate — ■ waiting till 1956 when they called up catcher Ozzie Virgil — kept George from set­ting foot in Tiger Stadium. He was a man of principle and didn’t like racism,

Newspaper dispute inspires AFL proposalsB y E ric F reed m anJournal Lansing Bureau

LANSING — Workers’ compen­sation, unemployment bene­fits and the right of unions and their members to remain

politically active will highlight the Michigan AFL-CIO’s legislative agen­da for 1999-2000.

The labor coalition also will lobby for a hike in the minimum wage, support for job training programs and preser­vation of the right of public school and government employees to collective bargaining.

“We are concerned about matters that affect workers on the job, like job safety, collective bargaining and work­ers’ compensation,” said AFL-CIO President Frank Garrison. “We are also concerned about the issues that affect them when they’re off the clock, like taxes, health care and consumer protection.”

The continuing labor dispute at Detroit’s daily newspapers is reflected in the agenda. The AFL-CIO proposes

The AFL-CIO proposes that local governments be banned from accepting outside payments for

police overtime and other costs related to strikes.

that local governments be banned from accepting outside payments for police overtime and other costs related to strikes.

The proposal stems from payments made by the Detroit News, Detroit Free Press and Detroit Newspapers to “buy” or “rent” local police depart­ments during the strike and lockout of unionized employees, the AFL-CIO says. “The state should also closely regulate through licensing the so- called ‘security police’ hired by corpo­rations to fight striking workers,” the agenda continues. “Many are little more than thugs trained to provoke picket line violence. Any person con­victed of a crime should not be allowed to be licensed for these private corpo­

rate security forces, and members of such forces should not be allowed to leave the employer’s premises while on duty.”

Union leaders acknowledge that Republican control of the state House, Senate and governor’s office will make it tougher to translate their legislative priorities into law.

“The expectations are lower,” said Tim Hughes, the AFL-CIO legislative director. “This year we’ll have more defensive action.”

The GOP holds a majority of seats on all committees, including those that handle much of the labor-related legis­lation. That political reality makes it important to force legislators to take public stances on key issues even if

union-backed proposals fail to win, said Hughes.

As an example, he referred to Democrat-backed proposals to improve pay equity between male and female workers. “Will they take the issue up in committee? Probably not, but we try to show they had a chance to do some­thing and they didn’t. If we can’t get a bill passed, we try at least to get a vote so people are on the record.”

Sen. Christopher Dingell, D- Trenton, said he expects Republicans “to attem pt to repeal the 20th century on labor issues” while Democrats will “propose fixing some existing prob­lems with current workers protec­tion.”

For example, he said'successful bid­ders on public projects sometimes can­cel required workers’ compensation

DNR buys Downriver recreationists’ isleBy E ric F reed m a nJournal Lansing Bureau

A 123-acre island in the Detroit River, known for its prime fishing, hunting and wildlife habitat, is now in

public hands.The Michigan N atural Resources

Trust Fund paid $650,000 for Stony Island in Grosse lie Township, avert­ing the threat of development and environmental degradation.

“The area around Stony Island pro­vides the largest and best publicly accessible hunting and fishing in the Detroit River for 5 million residents,” the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) said. “Heavily used by the pub­lic in the spring during walleye runs and in the fall during waterfowl hunt­ing season, this jewel in the river will remain intact for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, anglers and boaters.”

That section of the Detroit River is also used for biological research, sport diving and recreational boating.

Stony Island, about a mile long and three-quarters of a mile across, is the largest undeveloped island on the American side of the Detroit River. It’s a key part of what Bruce Jones of the Grosse lie Nature and Land Conservancy

Bruce Jones helped save Stony Island, off the Grosse lie shore in the Detroit River.

calls a “conservation crescent” that includes Gibraltar Bay, Humbug Marsh and several small islands.

When the island came on the market five years ago, there was speculation it

would be sold for such high-intensity uses as a casino, marina, private hunt­ing club or luxury homes, Jones said. “With this acquisition, we can main- -tain and preserve this natural area for

recreation and wildlife viewing for future generations.”

The state will keep the area unde­veloped, according to Bonnie Arthur, a DNR technician who frequently fishes the waters around Stony Island.

“We’re maintaining the natural state so outdoor recreationists can continue using it, especially for waterfowl hunt­ing in the fall and good fishing year- round,” Arthur said. “There are shal­lows that support game fish, perch and walleye mainly, and once they would have started to dredge and fill (for development), that spawning activity would have been lost, too.”

Because the island lies within Grosse He Township, the township’s no-hunting restrictions apply, Arthur said. That means hunters can shoot from boats but not on the island.

At least 23 species of migratory geese, swans, ducks and songbirds have been identified at Stony Island, while blue herons and eagles often feed in the bay. DNR calls the island’s marshes “some of the finest examples remaining in the American side of the river and in western Lake Erie.”

‘Don’t Go 4 It,’ union tells viewersBy Alan Forsyth■Journal S ta f f Writer

"Turn off Channel 4. It’s bad news for its workers.”

That’s the slogan of technicians and videotape editors at WDIV-TV in Detroit who are launching a boycott of Channel 4.

Members of Local 43 of the National Association of Broadcast Engineers and Technicians are asking viewers not to watch the station and advertisers not to advertise.

NABET will make its case on open­ing day at Tiger Stadium. “We are going to handbill a t the gates and pass out balloons,” said Jim Harris, regional vice president of the Communications Workers of America to which NABET belongs. “We have an airplane that is going to fly over with a banner.”

Harris said after 16 bargaining ses­sions “there has not been a tentative agreement on a single issue.”

NABET bargaining committee member Dan Morgan says Channel 4 figures if it waits long enough, “we’ll give in. We’re not.”

Morgan said the station wants to transfer work to nonunion and tem­porary employees who have no hope of gaining full-time employment.

NABET said that its numbers at WDIV have shrunk from 80 to 47 in the last two contracts.

Harris said he believes Channel 4 General Manager Alan W. Frank wants to diminish NABET’s work at the station.

Frank has a different take on the situation. “It’s difficult to define the way to move forward in these negoti­ations,” he said.” We are not sure what the priorities are for their nego­tiating committee.”

On NABET’s shrinking member­ship at WDIV, Frank said, “I haven’t seen their numbers, but we have been a very stable station for 10 years.”

Cash registers drown out crack of the bat

Charles McGee prepares home plate for the final Opening Day at Tiger Stadium.

By M ichael BetzoldJournal S ta ff Writer

A s Tiger Stadium’s last sea­son begins, many sentimen­tal voices are being raised in tribute to a century of great

moments at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull.

Muffled by all this nostalgia is the sound of money being funneled from fans and taxpayers into the coffers of the Detroit Tigers.

Just when it seems the costs associ­ated with the Tigers’ abandonment of Tiger Stadium have ended, there are new surprises. Monday, at the Tigers’ home opener, Detroit Mayor Dennis Archer plans to unveil new details of the plan to preserve Tiger Stadium’s field and a small portion of its stands, and replace the rest of the stadium with a residential-retail-athletic club complex. Estimated price tag for the project is $170 million. No developers have yet signed on to the plan, which would surround the field with condo­miniums, sports-related merchandis­ing venues, and a massive activities center.

Designers of the plan say revenue from condos and shops will fall far short of paying the costs of the pro­ject, and as much as $100 million in public money will have to be found to pay for the idea.

That’s about the same sum spent in total by the city of Detroit and the state of Michigan on building Comerica Park, the Tigers’ new home east of Woodward.

The Tigers and owner Mike Hitch stand to profit handsomely. Ilitch will realize at least a $50 million-$100 million increase in the value of the franchise. The Tigers also will control a lucrative multimillion-dollar park­ing and souvenir business they now share with unaffiliated entrep­reneurs. The club will also enjoy a huge increase in revenue from tickets and refreshments.

Tickets to see Detroit’s football, bas­ketball and hockey teams long ago reached far beyond working-class budgets. With its 11,000 bleacher seats and about 10,000 other cheap outfield seats, Tiger Stadium was the last remaining affordable major pro­fessional sports venue in the area.

The stadium’s basic configuration hasn’t changed since the 1930s, when club owner and automotive magnate Walter Briggs expanded 1912-vintage Navin Field. His goal was to maxi­mize the number of seats his factory

workers and their families could afford.

The result of his efforts was the nation’s foremost proletarian ball­park, with an abundance of good, cheap seats. Briggs Stadium, renamed Tiger Stadium in 1961, pro­vided the Tigers with a loyal working- class fan base and decades of reliable profits through winning and losing seasons. No other baseball stadium has so successfully combined mass, accessibility and intimacy.

Comerica Park, in contrast, will fol­low a familiar corporate trend — downsizing. While Tiger Stadium seats 51,000-plus, capacity at the new stadium will be about 40,000. Like other new stadiums, it will be config­ured to create the highest possible demand for high-priced tickets.

There will be about 5,000 outfield seats — fewer than a quarter of what Tiger Stadium has now. A large pro­portion of the remaining seats will be sold in season-ticket or multi-game packages.

Seeing a baseball game in Detroit will become a matter of paying big

_ commentarymoney in advance for predetermined dates. Gone will be the chance to make a last-minute decision on a summer night to spend $12 or so for a bleacher seat, a hot dog and a beer. Seats available at game time will be scarce. That’s why tens of thousands of Cleveland Indians fans come to Detroit to see their team play. They can’t get seats to watch their team at home at Jacobs Field.

The Tigers already have raised tick­et prices for the final season at Tiger Stadium. Prime box seats were hiked from $15 to $20; infield reserved seats went from $12 to $15; outfield seats soared from $8 to $12; and even bleachers rose from $4 to $5.

The increases set the stage for fur­ther hikes next season at the new sta­dium, where ticket prices are as yet undetermined. They also will help the Tigers reap record revenue from the 1999 season at the stadium they are abandoning because they say it is unprofitable. Already the club has

sold more than a million tickets for 1999, including a sellout on Sept. 27. The Tigers’ decision to play the final game on a Monday afternoon was cal­culated to reap the maximum profit.

The price-gouging to sell the nostal­gia of the final season is not exactly a class act, but then the replacement of Tiger Stadium could be viewed as class warfare. The working stiffs who for a century have enjoyed access to professional baseball in Detroit are being routed in favor of the class of those who buy seats in advance, pay $10 or more for guarded parking, snap up team-logo merchandise and eat catered finger food.

We’ve got one last season to sit in the upper-deck bleachers at Tiger Stadium, a lofty place where any fan can have a throne to survey the mil­lionaire athletes and raise a toast to the days when common folk could while away a summer evening at a baseball game.

AFL focus: Workers’ comp, unemploymentAFL-CIO, from Page 3insurance after getting the contract. "That puts the employees in a terrible situation. It’s a clear violation of pub­lic policy and an absolute travesty.”

Dingell, who sits on the Senate committee handling labor issues, also said several recent workplace tragedies, such as the two fatal explo­sions at a Hillsdale County fireworks plant, underscore the need for better enforcement of existing job safety laws.

Garrison characterized the AFL- CIO’s “Goals for State Government” as diverse and noted that they were drafted with input from union locals across Michigan.

One major concern that maximum unemployment benefits have not risen in three years, he said.

He predicted attacks on the work­ers’ compensation law despite the fact that workers’ comp insurance rates paid by employers have dropped for six years in a row.

The AFL-CIO criticizes proposals that would limit the ability of unions and their members to lobby the Legislature, especially so-called “pay- check-protection” bills tha t would restrict the use of union dues for orga­nizing, lobbying, labor education and related activities. “This new attack on unions is a nationally coordinated effort designed to take away working

families’ political strength,” the agen­da reads.

The agenda reiterates the AFL- CIO’s continued opposition to efforts by the Engler administration to pri­vatize government services and called for legislation to address abuses.

In addition, it says, “When the Legislature privatizes, merges or oth­erwise changes the relationship of a bargaining unit to the employer, pro­visions should be included in law pro­tecting the collective bargaining rights, contracts, pensions and jobs of affected workers.”

On other issues, the agenda calls for:■ An increase in the state minimum

wage from $5.15 to $5.65 an hour this year, another increase to $6.15 on Jan. 1, 2000, and automatic annu­al cost-of-living increases.■ Safeguards to prevent state job training funds from being used to depress wages, replace existing workers or continue work in plants where employees are on strike.■ Public financing of campaigns to reduce the importance of money in elections.■ Stronger enforcement and expan­sion of state occupational safety and health rules, including more employ­ee training and more enforcement staff.

DNR buys Downriver recreationists’ islandSTONY ISLAND, from Page 3before French settlers arrived in the area, and limestone was later quar­ried there to help build Detroit, then known as Fort Pontchartrain.

In the late 1800s, a railroad bridge- now long-gone crossed the island along a route between Grosse lie and

Trenton. And for several years before World War I, a temporary village there called Lockerville housed the families of workers who were blasting the Livingstone Channel for ship traf­fic. A dredging company used the island as an operations and mainte­nance center until 1990.

DNR said Stony Island comple­ments the agency’s ownership of 186- acre Celeron Island, which is part of the Pointe Mouillee State Game Area and is three miles downstream from Stony Island.

Jones, a dentist from Grosse lie, said representatives of DNR, the

Great Lakes Science Center and the Grosse lie N ature and Land Conservancy will meet April 22 to dis­cuss long-term and short-term plans for Stony Island. Possibilities include recreational opportunities and its use as an outdoor classroom. There will be no camping.

Destruction is all Milosevic knows

The question has never been whether the United States would become involved in the ongoing Yugoslav conflict. As the world’s last remaining superpow­

er — some might say “super cop” — there really wasn’t much choice.

Despite the inevitability, the ques­tion all along has been whether the United States should be involved. If one considers war something tha t a country shouldbecome involved in only as a last resort and only when its own interests are threatened, then it’s fairly difficult to jus­tify the U.S. bombs and missiles striking Serbia nightly.Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic appears to be a terrible man, but does he pose any kind of threat tor the United States or to our allies?

Unfortunately, warfare and the answers to those questions aren’t simple. In fact, the reasons for the United States becoming militarily involved — or not involved — in another country’s affairs have become so complex they are nearly undeci­pherable. Sometimes it appears to be self-interest (Kuwait), other times humanitarian (Somalia), sometimes a bit of both (Haiti), and sometimes it’s hard to know what the reasons are, regardless of what we’re told (Vietnam).

It’s not easy being the biggest guy on the block. When you’re big and strong in a world of considerably weaker players, responsibility becomes a burden of your strength. How do you balance responsibility and strength? Are we obligated to sac­rifice our young in conflicts on the other side of the world that don’t directly affect us? Why do we become involved in Yugoslavia, but not in other countries where ethnic hatreds have simmered for centuries? Who do we think we are?

Consider this: NATO officials have estimated tha t 831,000 ethnic Albanians have been driven from their homes in Kosovo during the past year by Milosevic’s storm troop­ers. That’s more than half the original

The only thing standing between

Milosevic and a sta­tus comparable to Hitler’s is NATO

intervention.

Albanian population of the province. And more than 360,000 ethnic Albanians have been expelled from Kosovo by Yugoslav forces since NATO air attacks began March 24.

Furthermore, Yugoslav atrocities inflicted upon the Kosovo Albanians have been enough to cause some to compare Milosevic to Adolf Hitler. This is not the first time an evil man

has been compared to Hitler, and the temp­tation often is great to compare a vicious national leader to Hitler. Often the com- .parison falls flat, and in some instances it’s akin to the boy who cried wolf.

U n f o r t u n a t e l y , Milosevic appears to be the real wolf. And

the only thing standing between Milosevic and a status comparable to H itler’s is NATO intervention. Milosevic had no intention of slowing down the slaughter of ethnic minori­ties on moral grounds, and he has shown no sign of relenting in his campaign against the Albanians, even after being under NATO attack for more than two weeks. Milosevic is bent on destruction and genocide, and President Clinton is absolutely cor­rect to demand that he withdraw his units from Kosovo, agree to an autonomous, multi-ethnic Kosovo, accept the deployment of an interna­tional security force and take defini­tive steps toward a political settle­ment that would enable the refugees to return to their homes.

It’s hard-line, but it’s the only line Milosevic understands.

Wage laws tie up corporate greed

By J im H igh tow erAlterN et N ews Service

An Asian proverb says “when spiders unite, they can tie down a tiger.” One of the most menacing tigers in our

country is the low-wage policy of big business and government.

They are using everything from corporate downsizing to global trade deals such as NAFTA to hold down the paychecks of working-class fami­lies. Even though workers have gen­erated record profits, productivity and stock gains for corporate America, eight out of 10 of us have seen our incomes stagnate or fall.

But so many can be taken advan­tage of for only so long. The estab­lishment media has tried to ignore this story, but all across America “spi­ders” have been getting organized, and they’re beginning to tie down that low-wage tiger. Their silk thread is a powerful concept called the living wage, which already has raised the wage floor in city after city.

The concept is that a minimum wage should not be an artificially low number chosen by politicians, but a fair amount that at least provides an income above the poverty line for full-time workers.

The grassroots organization

ACORN and the New Party have been leaders in organizing local coali­tions of churches, unions, community organizations and progressive politi­cians to fight for living wage ordi­nances. Their approach is to attach the fair-wage requirement to city contracts awarded to big business.

If corporations are getting millions of dollars from us taxpayers, they should return some benefit to our communities in the form of a living wage to their lowest-paid employees.

This is more than an idea. It’s now the law in Chicago, Boston, San Antonio, Milwaukee, Oakland, Calif., Durham, S.C., Portland, Ore., and Des Moines, Iowa.

It’s also the law in the city of Detroit, where it was passed by voter referendum last fall. But it has yet to be implemented here, and the forces of business, have been scrambling to overturn it.

To fight for a living wage where you live, call ACORN: 202-547-2500.

E n terta in m en tAlbum more than an ‘Echo’ of the past

On the (yellow brick) roadFantasy’s fine at Fisher fo rBy M ichelle B anks

Special to the Journal

L ike last year, the yellow brick road leads to the Fox Theatre, where the stage rendition of “The Wizard of Oz” remains a

stylish and lively diversion — if somewhat altered from its original form.

But this year’s production (which ends its run today) was noticeably scaled down, with smaller sets and fewer bejeweled costumes. And cast

changes in supporting roles were apparent.

Two important crowd-pleasing ingredients remained: Mickey Rooney returned in his cameo role as the Wizard, and talented, exuberant Michigan native Jessica Grove reap­peared as Dorothy.

Eartha Kitt and her menacing growl were gone, and she was much missed as the Wicked Witch of the

East. But Karen Babcock utilized the green face, black pointy hat, broom­stick and sinister laugh well enough to instill fear into youngsters.

Francis Ruivivar had the hammiest role as the Cowardly Lion, and like predecessor Ken Paige, he got plenty of deserved attention and applause.

Without intermission, the play breezed along seamlessly. Most of the thrills were geared to kids, but adults

againweren’t ignored: There was some sassy talk from an apple tree and an inside joke on how exactly one pole holds up the Scarecrow.

Special effects and pyrotechnics that heightened the illusion of a deadly tornado and an all-powerful Wizard were entertaining for all.

“The Wizard o f Oz” concludes its run today with shows at 1 and 4:30 p.m. at the Fox Theatre, 2211 Woodward, Detroit. Tickets are $17.50, $32.50 and $42.50. Call 313-983-6611.

Tom Petty, right, says he and the Heartbreakers reconnected on their new album, “Echo,” due in stores Tuesday.

By G ary G raffJournal M usic Writer

Despite his northern Florida drawl and laid-back demeanor, there’s a discernible ebullience in Tom Petty’s voice as he talks about the state of his music and his band.

“It’s an exciting time to be in the Heartbreakers,” said the 46-year-old singer, songwriter and gui­tarist, who started playing with the Heartbreakers in Gainesville, Fla., in 1971, when the group was known as Mudcrutch. “Usually, when a band’s been around this long, it’s just sort of paying lip service to itself. But I think our music is actually improving. It’s getting easier to do. It’s not nearly the chore it’s been.

“Those are nice things to have happen.”Petty made those observations on the eve of the

release of “Echo” (due in stores Tuesday), his 12th album with the Heartbreakers. And what he said is certainly borne out on the disc, in the rockers (“Free Girl Now,” “I Don’t Wanna Fight,” “About to Give Out”) and in the moodier fare (“Lonesome Sundown,” “Rhino Skin,” “Echo”).

The 15 songs are sinewy and tightly performed, but still convey a looseness and sense of space that speaks of a band that plays more by instinct than careful arrangement.

Moreover, it’s a testament to the resilience and allegiance Petty and the Heartbreakers feel toward each other. After all, it was only a decade ago that he made a solo album, the multimillion-selling “Full Moon Fever,” which worried his bandmates — since-departed drummer Stan Lynch was partic­ularly vocal about his concerns — and had fanswondering if a different kind of heartbreak was going on.

“There may have been some concern that I was drifting away, but I wasn’t, really,” said Petty, the divorced father of two daughters, ages 24 and 17, who now lives in Los Angeles. “I’ve always felt like a member of the band, and I think they treated me like a member of the band.”

During the past 10 years, however, he’s alternat­ed between Heartbreakers albums (1991’s “Into the Great Wide Open,” 1996’s soundtrack for “She’s

the One”), solo projects (1994’s “Wildflowers”) and occasional work with the Traveling Wilburys, the ad hoc supergroup that features pals Bob Dylan, George Harrison and Jeff Lynne. And he may put out another album in 2000. In fact, the outside projects outsold his albums with the Heartbreakers, save for a 1993 “Greatest Hits” set.

But with “Echo” there’s a palpable sense of reconnection, to the point where Petty even declares that he’s “through” doing solo albums.

Petty said the group’s long run of million-selling albums and hits such as “Breakdown,” “Refugee,”

No more teachers, less of CookFat School, my hospital-run

diet clinic, is over.

Ten weeks, 10 pounds and a lot more understanding about

eating better. (I hate that word “healthier.” It’s so commercial.)

For 10 weeks of Wednesday nights, we met for two hours to learn how we might lose a little weight and feel better for it. And it worked, thank you HMO, which paid for it.

I have stopped pigging out on the French baguette and butter. The runny cheeses are gone; a little grat­ed Parmesan is the only survivor from that family.

I eat less. And I’ve cut my wine consumption in half.

Oh, I do love my wine, though.What I discovered was that, actual­

ly, I had a better diet going into Fat School than anyone else in the class. Salads, vegetables, lots of grains, lim­ited meats, a little fish were part of my regular routine.

But where I went wrong was way overeating in some categories. The cost over the year: an additional 60 pounds.

I’m not sure Fat School — other­wise known as St. Joseph Mercy Health System NutriCare Nutrition Services — worked for everybody but it clearly did for some.

The class star was Allison, who attended with her mother. Unbeknownst to us, she had begun

exercising early in the program, cleaned out her refrigerator and started over. She had lost 20 pounds by the time we shook hands and said goodbye. We all were impressed and proud of her.

What I liked most about this pro­gram is that it demanded slow weight loss and change of habit, rather than rapid loss, which almost ensures you’ll gain the weight back. Allison was actually 10 pounds ahead of where she should have been.

The one I’ll miss the most, though, is Joe, a retired Ford line worker. Joe’s the one who introduced himself our first day as having “flunked out of Weight Watchers.” Another time he told us he boils his meat to get the fat out of it, but couldn’t figure out why it tasted like cardboard.

Joe had a habit of interrupting the instructor and telling his version of whatever she was telling us. I got to love his interruptions, because they turned out to be high comedy in an otherwise pretty boring two hours.

Joe had the most serious health

problem among us. He had been sent to the clinic after having open-heart surgery. And his arteries were clogged. He needed a very strict diet. And Joe struggled more than any of us with understanding both what we do to ourselves and what food will do to us.

He would talk about changes he was making in his diet, and then tell us he had been late that evening

because he drove through McDonald’s for some chicken nuggets on the way to class.

Six weeks into the program, Joe explained to the instructor that he and his wife had changed. They were now shopping for food ahead of time, every Saturday, and had defined their purchases by what’s “legal” and what’s “illegal.” His wife is a checker at a local supermarket. Bowled over,

the instructor congratulated Joe.Then Joe explained that while

there’s a “legal” shopping day, other days don’t quite count, and that one night he didn’t like anything in the house so he went to the store and bought a box of doughnuts and ate it. In unison, the class yelled “Oh, Joe!” and winged paper balls at him.

On the last day of class, we were asked to bring a dish to share. Joe brought his boiled hamburger and noodle casserole, and showed it to me proudly. I looked into his crock pot and backed off from the smell. Joe broke into great grin and said, “I added some steak sauce to give it fla­vor. And I made copies of the recipe for everyone.”

I made a dessert from a French cookbook that I modified so that it’s fat-free. In memory of a great 10 weeks and my classmates, whom I miss, I have named it:S traw berries a la Fat S chool

It’s plain to see, rain is blessing and a painTo my great but only tempo­

rary surprise, it rained on Easter. It produced a great morning for lying in bed, lis­tening to the rain, slowly resurrect­

ing oneself from the night before.Unfortunately, my girlfriend and I

— as authentic a pair of night- blooming orchids as you’re likely to meet — had to get up at an ungodly early hour. An hour, mind you, made an ungodly hour earlier by the arrival of Daylight Savings Time’s unspeakable torments.

My biological clock, which was wound up in a warmer place, tells me not only that Daylight Savings Time is an invention of the devil, but also that Easter is no time for rain.It has rained on Easter in my dis­tant ancestral home only once in 50 years. Which meant that the annual reunion this year took place out­doors, surrounded by the multicolor fireworks of redbuds, dogwoods and azaleas.

But so it rains; so what? April rain in Michigan is a pleasant thing.Here, at least, it’s accurate to say that April showers bring May flow­ers. And, of course, as the Bible notes, it falls on the unjust as well as the just, free to everybody.

While doing her homework, my 8- year-old daughter recently reminded me that rain is part of the hydrologi­cal cycle of evaporation, condensa­tion and precipitation. She explained that rain begins in clouds, where water vapor attaches to dust or ice crystals and makes droplets which

combine into drops and fall. Or rain may begin as snow and turn into water as flakes melt on the way down. If raindrops fall into a low- temperature layer, they can freeze into pellets of sleet.

OK, enough of that. One thing worth pondering about rain is that it’s very old stuff. The water that lands on your head may have tossed about in an ancient ocean, or it may simply have found its way into the

air from a bog or a swamp or a steaming hot spring. You may have brushed your teeth with it last week.

Rain seems often to strike us mostly as unjust. It soaks the Masters tournament and cancels the Tigers game for which we have excellent seats. It gets in our shoes; it ruins our hairdos. It always seems to produce a gray, showery Saturday just right for sleeping when I have to get out of my cozy bed and get to work. Too much rain means the basement may get wet, or that the Mississippi will burst its levies and carry away Missouri. Too little means our zinnias will dry up, or that the price of vegetables will rise, or that water will be rationed.

Gardeners, of course, readily cele­brate a good April rain; they’re counting on flowers not only in May but October, too. Farmers appreciate

rain for reasons even more critical to us all. Certainly the ancient Egyptians wouldn’t have become famous had it not been for rains in the heart of Africa that swelled the Nile and dumped loads of fertile silt downstream. It’s no wonder primi­tive societies traditionally have all sorts of histrionics to entice rain to fall: When people live close to the edge, rain means life — and a lack of it means, well, you know.

To most creatures, rain is just the way things are, and just right. For instance, if frogs and salamanders had bigger brains, they might con­sider that April showers were designed specifically for them. On wet nights in early spring they leave their hiding places and head for standing water to sing, mate and lay eggs. I heard a Mormon Tabernacle Choir’s worth of frogs peeping and squawking in Northville the other night. If you’re someone who enjoys running over frogs and toads on the highway, we may be entering your favorite time of year.

If you’re a better breed of person, however, avoid them if you can; that way, the next time you get rained on, at least you can number yourself among the just.
