GROSSE POINTE PARK— “We’re neighbors.”
With that pronouncement, Mayor Greg Theokas joined with Pastor Joel Wallace and pledged support to the neighborhoods that sit on both sides of the Park- Detroit border at Kercheval and Alter Road.
Wallace is founder and rector of the Abundant Faith Cathedral, located at Kercheval and Manistique, two blocks
from Alter. Theokas introduced Wallace at the Monday night city council meeting, describing him as a “key player” in the redevelopment of the area.
“We had a chance to talk about our neighborhood,” Theokas told the council. “There are many areas where we can work together to remove the blight.”
Last week, Wallace gave Theokas a tour of his church, which had been the Christian

Lockup study resumesBy Brad LindbergStaffW riter
GROSSE POINTE WOODS, SHORES AND FARMS — Study resumes this summer on consolidating public safety lockup facilities — holding cells — of the three northern-most Grosse Pointes.
A joint lockup for Grosse Pointe Farms, Shores and Woods is proposed for construction at Woods headquarters on Mack.
The Woods has more room than the other cities
for combined facilities, plus a $500,000 state grant to build it.
Woods officials got the grant earlier this year, but plans for the lockup were suspended while the city’s new public safety director, Bruce Smith, settled into the job.
“The grant was for $500,000 — $100,000 for technology and $400,000 for physical improvements to the building,” Smith said. “The goal is to try, within

Whiskey Six liquor license all setBy Brad LindbergStaffWriter
CITY OF GROSSE POINTE — During Prohibition, the public’s thirst for alcohol gave bootleggers license to run Canadian whiskey to Michigan.
The spirit continues with municipal endorsement of a liquor license for The Whiskey Six, a speakeasy-themed pub and restaurant opening this fall on St. Clair in the Village district of downtown C ity of Grosse Pointe.
James Bellanca III, one of the five-member ownership team, hopes to open early October.
“We’re waiting for equipment to come and hope there’s no delay,” he said.
A 1928 Studebaker displayed within evokes and personifies six-cylinder cars — a “whiskey six” — bootleggers filled with booze and drove from Canada to Detroit during winter over the frozen Detroit River and Lake St. Clair.
“The bar (and) restaurant will serve beer, wine and spirits for consumption on premises, as welt as a full menu of food,” according to Detective Sgt. Christopher Lee, concluding routine background investigations

of the liquor license applicants.
“I find no reason why this license should not be issued.”
Members of the city council recommended approval of the application Monday, Aug. 17.
“Good luck to you,” Councilman Chris Walsh told Bellanca. “Glad to have you.”
The business is in the former Ace Hardware across from Kressbach Place in downtown City of Grosse Pointe.
Site plans approved in May list seating for 184 patrons inside, including a game room, a sidewalk patio for 46 patrons and a fireplace.
Owners intend to operate their $875,000 investment from 11
a.m. to 2 a.m., with a possible 9 a.m. opening Sundays “for brunch,” Bellanca said.
Live entertainment was approved during the site plan process. Members of the city council reserved the right to lim it the volume of patio music.
The Whiskey Six joins Calico, The Shoe Tree, Small Favors, Grosse Pointe Fine Homes, Edward Jones, Massage Green Spa, Scott Shuptrine and St. John Medical in space that had been Damman and Ace Hardware for 30 years and, next door on Kercheval, Borders Books.
Cameras being installedBy Brad LindbergStaffWriter
GROSSE POINTE SHORES — Police advise everyone to behave themselves when caught on outdoor security video cameras being installed at four locations;♦ the north city border
in the 1100 block of Lakeshore,♦ the intersection of
Lakeshore and Vernier,♦ the intersection of
Cook and Ballantyne and♦ the south border at
the intersection of Lakeshore and Woodland Shores.
“The project is in full swing,” said John Schulte, public safety director in Grosse Pointe Shores. “Cameras have been mounted on the north and south ends of town on light poles.”
Poles at Cook and Ballantyne were installed last week.
Consultants recommended the locations to preserve images of traffic wrecks.
Video evidence at Lakeshore and Vernier may help prosecute drunken and careless drivers running off the road through the wrought
iron fence into the municipal park.
People caught damaging city property are liable for restitution under a cost recovery ordinance.
Cameras at Lakeshore and Vernier w ill be attached to existing utility poles.
“That part of the project will be relatively simple,” Schulte said. “We won’t need a cable connection to the station because we’re going to shoot it wirelessly in.”
The project is funded by last year’s 1-mil property tax increase for public safety enhancements.

Some items up for bid are:♦ a VIP experience for
two at next May’s 100th Indianapolis 500 and♦ a two-year lease from
Crest Ford of a 2016 White Titanium Fusion.
Gourmet food during the reception is from Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe, Hill Seafood and Chop House, Jumps, Cafe Nini, Luxe Bar and Grill, and Fresh Farms Market.

“Every year we surpassed the year before in terms of attendance, participation and enthusiasm,” added fellow co-chairman Tom Buhl, of the Farms. “Our com- munity has really embraced this event. The support has been amazing.”
“It’s an incredible fundraiser,” said Dan Jensen, steering committee member and Farms public safety director. “Three sets of children’s charities reap the benefits, but it’s a great event with attractions and games for kids.”
Racing For Kids, founded at Children’s Hospital of Michigan, uses the popularity of motorsports to generate awareness for children’s healthcare institutions nationwide.
Robbie Buhl, a Farms native and former IndyCar driver, is the charity’s first and only national spokesman.
He and fellow racers visited more than 28,000 sick children during more than 575 hospital visits across the United States, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Japan and Australia.

Kate will be missedByBradlindberStaffWriter
GROSSE POINTE FARMS — A female border collie named Kate, purchased by the city at the equivalent age of a teenybopper and trained to use her herding instinct to chase geese from Pier Park, is dead at age 14 from liver cancer.
A veterinarian euthanized her Monday, Aug. 10.
“She’d stopped eating,” said Ken Rowell, her handler and host. “Her liver had grown so much it pushed her stomach up into her body.”
She’d spent nearly a week under a vet’s care.
Although Kate and Rowell, 59, retired three years ago from the lakeside park, they remained part- time employees of Grosse Pointe Farms.
They usually worked Tuesdays and Fridays, commuting from his house, her home.
They made an unscheduled trip to work the morning of the day she died.
Rowell drove her to the park in the back seat of his Smart car.
He carried her to the ground, routine in recent years as growing arthritis competed with failing eyesight and hearing to threaten her mobility.
“She tried,” Rowell said of that final patrol. “She never complained about anything. Not once. God bless her. But, she looked at me and 1 could tell.”
Rowell said she barked maybe twice and never bit a bird all those years at the park.

Kate gets a hot dog, her favorite snack, from Farms resident Patricia Lay-Dorsey this month at Pier Park.
Her main goal remained hassling geese.
Truth is, Kate developed a second mission. She made side trips to the concession stand for a hot dog at snack time. A favorite meal was Rowell’s macaroni and cheese from home.
“We always split my lunch 50/50,” Rowell said. “She got half. 1 got half.”
Kate’s legacy is a 17.5-acre, landscaped park with picnic grounds and 200 feet of sandy beach free of goose droppings.
The transformation began within days of her arrival from a breeder in Virginia.
Now-retired Farms Manager Richard Solak drove more than1,000 miles there and back to get her.
“Geese got the message and left the park,” Solak said. “Before that, the asphalt paths were full of droppings. The volleyball court was full of it. Besides being a health hazard, it was distasteful to walk through that stuff.”
“The area down near the gazebo was covered with geese and seagull feces,” said Patricia Lay-Dorsey, a Farms resident for 44 years. “Chairs on that side of the park were filled with it. The minute Kate got there, she took care of it.”
Rowell often announced patrols
in a clipped voice, “Time to walk, Kate.”
His code word, never before told, for her to dash after something was, “chipmunk.”
“^^erever 1 was pointing, that’s where she’d go,” Rowell said.
Nearly everyone loses a family pet. The pain is personal and inevitable.
“Kate left a big hole in my heart,” Rowell said.
But, she belonged to the community and proved more valuable to its lifestyle than the $2,500 ledger entry recording her purchase.
“It was gratifying seeing kids and adults watch I&te do her work; the smiles that come to their faces,” Solak said. “She made a lot of friends. People are going to miss her.”
“It was a loss for the whole city,” said Shane Reeside, city manager since 2003 and primed for the job as Solak’s assistant. “We’re considering getting another dog, but are also looking at contracting resources.”
Kate’s being cremated.Final disposition isn’t settled,
according to Rowell.He spent time alone with her
before the injection that put her down.
“She was never alone,” Rowell said. “We just kind of hugged each other. She was tired.”
Owner thwarts break-in attemptBy Brad LindbergStaffWriter
CITY OF GROSSE POINTE — A sleeping B&E target didn’t take it lying down.
He chased off the suspect. Police on the midnight shift nearly caught him.
The homeowner, a 64-year-old man living in the 800 block of University Place, City of Grosse Pointe, told police he was sleeping on a couch in a back room until awakened around 4 a.m. Friday, Aug. 21.
“He heard jingling and rustling at the rear slid
ing patio door,” said Officer Christopher Cotzias. “Once he dismissed the possibility it was his dog trying to get comfortable, he got up to see a tall, skinny black male in a white T-shirt attempting to get the sliding patio door open.”
The suspect ran away, the homeowner chasing.
A half dozen houses down the block, the suspect got in a parked, dark car and headed southbound on University, turning westbound on Mack in Detroit and from there unknown.
“ (The) victim stated that while on his walk.
approximately 15 minutes prior, he observed a vehicle driving down University from Mack occupied by two with one occupant smoking,” Cotzias said.
Back at the house, police found fresh blood on the patio door, plus blood and a Band-Aid on the rear deck.
Two patrolm en checked area hospitals for a likely patient.
Sgt. Jason Alcorn went to CVS Pharmacy on Mack at East Warren to see if a customer matching the suspect’s description had been there.
“Alcorn learned that
two males had been in the store, one a tall black male with a white T-shirt and bleeding from his hand,” according to Cotzias.
The man bought Band- Aids and Neosporin, probably prior to the attempted home invasion, Alcorn said.
A security guard at St. John Hospital and Medical Center called police about a man being admitted matching the suspect’s physical description and assumed injuries.

Science Church for decades. Wallace retired after 42 years with General Motors Corp. and founded his church, as well as a large community outreach program, including an anti-blight program and a food bank.
He assured Theokas he wanted to work with the Park and together, “we
can make this a better place.”
The council took steps Monday night to seal a partnership with the church when it offered support for Wallace’s annual Thanksgiving food drive. Wallace told the council of his annual drive to provide turkeys for the disadvantaged in the neighborhood and asked if he could donate turkeys in the name of Grosse Pointe Park. He believed the gesture
would help ensure a stronger neighborhood bond.
The council endorsed the idea, and each council member pledged a donation to the program.
City attorney Dennis Levasseur also urged residents be involved, and asked that donations be sent directly to Wallace. Donations can be made to the Abundant Faith Cathedral, 14710 Kercheval, Detroit, MI 48215.

“We’ve committed money to help get it designed, then look at operational costs,” said Shores Manager Mark Wollenweber. “Once builders bid on it, we’ll

public safety.“We’re not going to do
this if it costs us more, unless there’s some huge return safety-wise,” Wollenweber said.

THE GROSSE POINTES— A speeding motorcyclist crashed on Lakeshore near Blairmoor in Grosse Pointe Shores shortly past 11:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 19.
“The victim continued to bleed profusely from a left open femur fracture and was gasping for air with gurgling noises,” reported Shores Sgt. James Wardowski, trained, like all Shores officers, as paramedics or emergency medical technicians.
“The driver appeared to have a compromised airway,” reported Officer Michael O’Brien. “It sounded like there was fluid coming from the lungs.”
Officer Jason Rengert wrapped the leg with a tourniquet to stem what O’Brien suspected was arterial bleeding.
“Rengert and O’Brien were not sure if he would make it,” Wardowski said.
He survived, however, minus an estimated two liters of blood.
Officers from multiple Grosse Pointe agencies cited the driver, an 18-year-old man from Dearborn Heights, for reckless driving.
“The tickets were delivered to his mother and brother at St. John Hospital,” said City Officer Jason Alcorn.
At the time Alcorn completed his initial incident report, 2:28 a.m., he said the teen “was in surgery and expected to recover.”
The teen, on a 2015
Yamaha, was among 10 motorcyclists reported entering Grosse Pointe Park on Jefferson from Detroit at speeds approaching 100 mph, according to multiple officers.
Alcorn saw them run red lights at Neff and Fisher before entering the Farms onto Lakeshore.
“A small group broke off and went north on Moross, but the larger portion continued on Lakeshore,” Alcom said.
“(I) observed approximately eight motorcycles eastbound on Lakeshore at a high rate of speed being followed by a (City of Grosse Pointe) unit,” added Farms Officer Jason Newberg. “Two motorcycles turned northbound at Moross. The rest continued into Grosse Pointe Shores.”
In the Shores, O’Brien’s radar recorded them between 91 and 97 mph and gaining speed.
“Shortly after, Grosse Pointe Shores announced one of the motorcycles was driving in opposing traffic, then reported a motorcycle crashed,” Alcom said.
The rest got away.The teen made it tough
on officers trying to save his life.
“Once the tourniquet was applied, the driver continued to try to remove it,” said O’Brien. “The driver would not stay still.”
Officers loaded him in a Grosse Pointe Woods ambulance.
A Woods patrolman drove the ambulance to the hospital so two medics could focus on the patient, Alcom said.

The 2015 championship team consisted of players Luke Babcock, Kurt Barr, Cameron Braithwaite, Bryan Carney, Will Cooksey,
Luke Deskins, Alex George, Chris Marshall, James MacAuley, Parker O’Neill, Michael Paluzzi, Jake Tedesco and Danny Vogler.
The Woods-Shores Little League program was organized in 1954 and more than 500 players and 100 coaches participate in several different age divisions each year.

Councilman Bob Denner praised Theokas and Wallace for taking the first steps in forging a bond between the two cities.
“I’m excited for what you’re doing and I ’m looking forward to working with you,” he told Wallace. Denner is mn- ning unopposed for mayor in November and pledged to continue the dialogue in itia ted between Theokas and Wallace.
ational costs we’d have to contribute. We’re waiting for that proposal.”
So is the Shores.The original thought a
few years ago was to establish a single dispatch and prisoner facility shared by all Grosse Pointes.
“It was a good idea, but required more capital costs because we’d have to build a new building to facilitate lockup for all the Grosse Pointes,” Reeside said.

The summitBy Jody McVeighCommunity Editor
His trip lasted two weeks, but the friends and memories Pete Campbell made during those weeks will last a lifetime..The Grosse Pointe
Woods resident returned last month from a trip to Africa, where he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and went on safari. Campbell, a two-time cancer survi- vor, received an Adventure Support Grant through the Cancer Climber Association as well as donations of climbing gear to make the trip free of charge. CCA founder Sean Swarner, Campbell’s friend and 12-time Kilimanjaro climber, led the expedition.
“The team was amazing,” Campbell said. “Sean kept saying that he

could see something in our group that he hadn’t seen in other groups .... We were having more fun than anyone else on the mountain. We were very full of life.”
Along the way, the team earned nicknames for their spirit and positive attitude. Though there were moments of doubt, team members gave each other pep talks and Campbell said at times he repeated Swamer’s mantra — “The higher I go, the stronger I get” — with every step.
The day they headed for the summit, the group stopped at Stella Point at 18,800 feet to regroup.
“The last 45 minutes we pushed to the top,” he said. “I cried for that entire 45 minutes.”
Once they reached the summit, Swamer told the group they were the first of his teams to entirely summit Kilimanjaro in the years he’d been climbing.
“It was definitely a team effort, 5thout Sean there’s no way we’d get

100 percent,” Campbell said. “This team, we all pushed each other. We were unique in our own ways, but we all melded together perfectly. Sean said we all brought something to the team.”
Campbell said only 40 percent of climbers successfully reach the summit of Kilimanjaro. Swamer’s success rate is 90 percent.
“We didn’t know so many people had failed,” Campbell said. “Having that team camaraderie really helped.”
Following their descent, the group spent a week on safari, spotting elephants, water buffalo, lions and more each day of the adventure.

ter and better,” Campbell said of the trip. “It was perfect — that’s how the whole trip went. Everything fell into place.
“I’ve made seven new friends. I’m pretty sure we’ll be friends for life,” Campbell continued, adding that there’s already talk of a reunion hike in Colorado, where most of the team members live.
He said he developed an especially close friendship with fellow climber Steven Beal, who was climbing in honor of his sister, Bethany Ann Schulenberg, who died of cancer.
Campbell was so inspired by his new friend, he wrote down a quote from Beal that

There’s no doubt Campbell would make the climb again, but for now his sights are set on events closer to home. He’s training for a 5 kilo

D eezN utsA Detroit man, 32, cited
the name of fictitious presidential candidate, Deez Nuts, as his own in response to officers questioning him last weekend for suspected drunken driving.
Deez Nuts, the creation of a teenager from Iowa, earned a 9 percent favorable rating in a recent public policy polling survey.
The Detroit man was arrested for drunken driving at 11:59 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 22.
He had a .148 percent blood alcohol level while operating a 2002 Buick erratically on eastbound Mack, according to the arresting officer.
At headquarters, he “refused to cooperate or answer any questions asked of him,” said a patrolman.
B e honest
A 41-year-old Grosse Pointe Farms woman, questioned shortly before 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 29, for driving a white 2013 Chrysler Town & Country against the designated flow of traffic on Fisher, a one-way road above Kercheval. was
Public Safety Reportsarrested for drunken driving.
An officer caught her after she turned to westbound Waterloo.
“I asked (her) if she had consumed any alcohol and she stated, ‘No,’” said the officer.
“When I advised her that it was not in her best interest to lie, she stated she had ‘two glasses,’ the last being about an hour prior.”
She registered a .106 percent blood alcohol level, police said.
Phone scam
Scammers fleeced a City woman, 92, of $1,200 last week.
The scam works this way;
“(The victim) stated she was contacted by tele
phone Monday, Aug. 17, by a person claiming to be her grandson,” said a City public safety officer. “He told her he had been in a car accident and was being held by police in Detroit. He was ashamed to call his parents.”
The caller said a legal aid lawyer could get him released for $1,200.
Officers linked the money to three iTunes cards mailed to California, but couldn’t trace the call.
“(The) victim does not have caller I.D.,” said an officer.

Plan can’t be a bigger burden
Part 1 o f 2.House Republicans offered a roads plan that would
raise $600 million in additional revenue and find another $600 million through budget cuts, but they failed to identify what they would cut to get to that $600 million. Based on past experience, their last proposed roads plan eliminated the Earned Income Tax Credit that helps low-wage workers. I’d expect that they would take the money from revenue sharing and human service programs like Medicaid expansion, food (EBT) benefits, the foster care system and senior programs, to name just a few possibilities. We can’t fix our roads on the backs of our neediest citizens or by taking money from cities that need it to provide safety and other necessary services.
Fixing our roads is the No. 1 priority for the Detroit Caucus. But the roads plan we will support must be a plan that is responsible, obtainable and a permanent solution to fix and maintain our roads without doing greater harm to our residents.
For years, our cities have had to make do with less money in revenue sharing payments from the state. Revenue sharing funds criticd services like police, fire and ambulance services. It helps fund trash and yard waste pick-up and snow removal. It funds programs that make our communities livable for residents and workable for business and industry. Cutting revenue sharing to fund roads would endanger our local and state economy.
One of the first cuts offered in a previous House Republican plan was the elimination of the Earned Income Tax Credit available to low-wage workers. Given that. I’m concerned the $600 million they are now looking for in the budget would come from other programs that families, senior citizens and children rely on. Our juvenile justice programs were targeted in the recently passed budget when they closed the W J. Maxey Training School in Whitmore Lake. Our foster care system already struggles to provide for foster children and the families who take them in. If any of this $6(X) million comes from these programs, then young people in the juvenile justice system will lack the services they need to turn their lives around. Kids in foster care have a harder time finding the family supportthey need to help them grow into successful citizens.
If they look for road money to come from human service programs like food assistance, health care and Medicaid services, then we will be pushing needy families further into poverty. Many who benefit the most from food assistance are senior citizens living on fixed incomes and children. We’ve already tightened the qualifications to receive this help. Pulling more money out of these programs will make it even harder on people who don’t have much to begin with.

N ew s h elp s u s look forward
It has been a pleasure reading about all the great things going on in
the Grosse Pointe Public School System lately in the Grosse Pointe News. From the impressive profile of Keith Howell, the district’s new director of pre-K and elementary instruction, to the Grosse Pointe North students who formed their own rocketry team, staff writer Mary Anne Brush has done an impressive job of telling the stories that make this a great district.
I know there are some in our community who feel our district’s best days are behind it. Ido
not believe that.Yes, we have a new set
of challenges today that we didn’t have 20 or 30 years ago when I was a student here. But these stories show that if we work together, there is no reason to look backwards and feel burdened by the challenges we face. Instead, we can look ahead and feel optimistic about the solutions we can find together.

No merit to meter concernsA recent guest opinion
in the Grosse Pointe News about advanced electric and gas metering is in need of correction and clarification.
Advanced meters incorporate technology that allows utility meters to be read remotely, and provide a wide range of benefits to DTE Energy and its customers. The new technology provides these benefits for our customers:
♦ Estimated bills are virtually eliminated through automated meter reading.
♦ Electric system issues can be more quickly recognized, which reduces the length of power outages.
♦ Electric service can be remotely connected and disconnected, which means faster, less intrusive service. Customers no longer will have to wait for a service technician to stop or start service at their homes and businesses. This capability also can be used to assist first responders in emergency situations.
♦ The meters provide
up-to-date information which will help customers track, manage and control their energy usage, saving them money.
♦ The technology reduces operating costs to help hold down future rate increases.
♦ The meters provide the backbone for the DTE Insight app, which allows users to see real-time energy usage in their home.
DTE Energy has had a near 100 percent acceptance rate of the 2.6 million meters installed so far. Nevertheless, we recognize that advanced meters are an emotional issue for a small population of customers. Customers can choose to opt out of the program for a fee and receive new digital meters that do not wirelessly transmit usage information. A meter reader will stop by their homes once a month as has been our previous practice.
It should be noted that the Michigan Public Service Commission has approved DTE’s advanced meter program and its program to allow
customers to opt out. The Michigan Court of Appeals affirmed the MPSC’s orders that approved the opt-out program on all counts.
While concerns have been raised about the potential impact of the radio frequency generated by advanced meters, numerous studies have shown that advanced meters using RF technology pose no health risk. Even an American Cancer Society report states, “There is no clear evidence at this time that RF waves from smart meters (or other devices) can cause harmful health effects. The low levels of energy from RF waves have not been clearly shown to cause problems even at close range, and the energy decreases the farther a person is from the transmission source.”
As with any electric device that uses RF, advanced meters have been monitored, tested and certified to ensure they meet national safety standards. The Federal Communications Commission sets health
standards for RF exposure based on extensive reviews of biological and health studies. The RF exposure levels from advanced meters are far below the levels permitted by the FCC and far below - and more infrequent - than other common electric devices such as cell phones, baby monitors, wireless routers, laptop computers and micro- wave ovens.
Advanced meters typically broadcast their signals for less than two minutes in any 24-hour period, not at the pace stated in the guest opinion.
In summary, DTE Energy believes there is absolutely no merit to the concerns raised by some individuals about advanced meters and we remain confident in the safety, security and benefits provided by the meters.

Respected, but not all goodGordon Morlan’s trib
ute to Jimmy Carter (G.R News 08/20) echoes what most of us feel. We wish Pres. Carter well and pray for his recovery.
Morlan omitted some important items in Carter’s curriculum vitae: a) Carter completely mishandled the Iran hostage crisis that is still unfolding today in our dealings with that country. b) Carter, single handedly, more than anyone else, helped create the U.S. economic crash of 2008. As president, he felt sorry for the poor; he wanted to help them with easy credit and home ownership. Carter pushed for and signed the
Community Reinvestment Act of 1977. CRA-77 has negatively impacted 100 million Americans, especially the poor, and continues to do so today. As the old saying goes: “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
Among other things, CRA-77 specifically required easy credit and mortgages be made available for minorities, the underemployed and the poor; to encourage home ownership, regardless of their ability to repay the loans (kind of like Greece and Argentina) and irrespective of location of the property. All of the many
bad actors who contributed to the Crash of ’08 then found a way to get in on the scam courtesy of CRA-77.
In 2000, President Clinton added serious muscle to the CRA-77 by use of the Gramm- Leach-Bliley Financial Services Act which enhanced monetary penalties for banks who failed to make loans to poor credit risks. Under penalty of severe regulatory sanctions and large monetary fines, banks were legally, forcibly prevented from avoiding high risk mortgages. Federal agencies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, using taxpayer money, financed
most of the debacle with help from banks that created, then sold, subprime loans and weapons of mass financial destruction.
Carter did many good things and his kindness will always be remembered, as well as his receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for trying to bring peace to the Middle East. CRA-77 is not one of them: Millions of people worldwide got burned on that item. Let us not yet elevate him to the level of a saint; a respected, kind-hearted good American will do nicely.

Grosse Pointe Farms
Not h is beerA 19-year-old Grosse
Pointe Park man, being investigated for speeding a light green 2004 Nissan Altima up Moran from Lakeshore, failed a series of sobriety tests and was arrested for drunken driving at 1:02 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 23.
Police said he had a .17 percent blood alcohol level.
Officers searching his car said they found a half empty pint of vodka and an uncapped, 3/4 empty 40-ounce bottle of beer.
“He stated it was his friend’s beer,” said the arresting officer.
B ike stolenSomeone between the
hours of noon and 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 22, stole an unlocked $400 Trek mountain bike parked at the Richard Elementary School racks, according to its owner, an 11-year-old City of Grosse Pointe boy.
Screen dam age
An estimated $300 in damage was committed by someone cutting a screen window at the Kerby Field
community building.A glass window behind
the screen was intact. Nothing seemed missing inside the building.
A Grosse Pointe Farms parks and recreation employee said the damage occurred between 8 and 9:22 p.m. Friday, Aug. 21.
“(I) noted a hand print in dust on the glass,” said a patrolman.
Blank lookPolice responded at 8:50
a.m. Thursday, Aug. 20, to a suspected drunken driver of a black 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix headed toward the Farms on westbound Lakeshore in Grosse Pointe Shores.
“(The) vehicle nearly struck a Shores public works worker near Vernier and was reported to have driven through two red lights,” said a Farms patrolman, stopping the suspect, a 26-year-old Detroit man, near the intersection of Warner.
The man “blankly looked” at the officer, refusing to cooperate, the officer said.
“(He) was assisted from (the) vehicle and taken to the sidewalk area,” said
the officer, putting him in custody.
Officers searching the car said they found a nearly empty fifth of vodka.
They took him to a hospital for a blood test, where he also was admitted to the psychiatric unit, according to police.
Car foundA black 2004 Lincoln
LS, stolen from a driveway in the 300 block of Kercheval between 10 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 20, and 9 a.m. the next day, was recovered undamaged Saturday, Aug. 22, near the intersection of Chalmers and Chelsea in Detroit.
Michigan State Police reported having two suspects in custody, according to Farms officers.
The owner said the car was locked when stolen.
“(I) found no evidence of forced entry,” said a Farms investigator.

for resisting officers.Patrolmen were dis
patched to the house at 11:45 a.m. Monday, Aug. 17, on a report of domestic violence.
The first officer on scene met the suspect’s parents and brother, 22, outside.
“(They) stated they were hurt and the suspect was in the house breaking furniture,” said the officer.
The officer entered the side door as the suspect exited the front door.
“A minor takedown ensued so we could handcuff the suspect,” said the officer. “No injuries. The argument started about the suspect wanting more money to buy drugs. When the mother refused, the argument escalated into a physical altercation.
“The brother was bitten on the neck trying to protect his mother. Both mother and father had
minor injuries from trying to restrain the suspect from harming them.”
Forced entry
A woman returning home to the 400 block of Chalfonte at about 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 17, discovered evidence of forced entry.
“A side entry door to the garage had been pushed open,” said a public safety officer.
The door is usually held shut by a bent nail.
“(The victim) states her dog was loose inside the home all day and may have scared the (unknown) suspect off before entering the home from the garage,” said the officer.

T oll iK tk e so ilNeighbors improving Oxford island
By Monica SabellaCommunity Editor
Away from the busy Mack traffic lies a quiet Grosse Pointe Woods street called Oxford. It winds gently amidst houses, each more unique and quaint than the one before. Along that street lies a median bedecked in flowers with a young tree standing tall and strong in its center. Pausing at the stop or yield sign, one may notice a person or two bent between flower beds, pulling weeds or trimming branches.
These urban gardeners call themselves Islanders and live in the neighborhood surrounding the island, which divides Oxford into its northern and southern sides. Through the years, the island, nicknamed Ralphy’s Island in memory of a deceased neighbor, had fallen into neglect. Flowers and trees had become overgrown, hiding street signs from oncoming traffic. Neighbors Diane Yordy, a Master Gardener, and Cindy Ireland
Neighbors in Grosse Pointe Woods volunteered to work on improvements to the island that splits North Oxford and South Oxford near Holiday Road.
decided something had to be done. The island had been nothing but a neighborhood eyesore all summer; thus, the Islander project began.
“Myself and another neighbor once again contacted the city and proposed that if they (the city) would strip the island, we would come up with a landscape plan,” Yordy said. “We did, the city approved it and told us they could provide us with a tree, which they did.”
The group decided to plant a tree that would grow tall and thin, to
avoid problems with overgrown branches.
“The ink wasn’t even dry on the agreement that they gave us and (the city) was already planting a tree,” Yordy said.
A team of volunteers from around the neighborhood — with three Master Gardeners, a master composter and a rosarian leading the way — took the island by storm. The group began pulling weeds, then planted more than 56 plants in 90-degree weather. Last weekend, the Islanders were out again, spreading newspa

per around flowerbeds and covering them with piles of mulch.
Since Ireland, cofounder of the project, delivered copies of the landscape plan to neighbors in an effort to raise sufficient funding, they’ve seen an overwhelmingly positive response.
“It’s a community thing,” said Sue Temess, a volunteer and member of the Evergreen Society.
Yordy described how involved the neighborhood has become since they began, offering thumbs up or encouragement while passing by, some even stopping their cars and asking questions.
Jim Kowalski of the Woods Department of Public Works was influential in helping the group get its plans approved. The city has since helped in numerous ways. Yordy said Woods
employees, like Dan DiFranco, have come by on their days off and have gone above and beyond to help the group.
“Everyone’s pitching in, even the people with bad backs. We just tell them to stand on the newspaper to keep it flat while we water,” Yordy said.
The Islanders have a few more ideas to
improve the landscape design, but it mainly depends on funding. However, the area has come a long way in three weeks and the team is proud of the work it has accomplished.
“We challenge all the other neighborhoods with islands or city property to do the same,” volunteer Charlie Ireland said.

BEAUTIFUL BEGINNINGS I 3B
DSO launches on-demand archiveThe Detroit Symphony
O rch estra recen tly launched the nation’s only on-demand classical performance archive to some 5,000 inaugural m em bers. Through Replay, music fans can stream full-length classical works on-demand in HD. Boasting more than 100 works originally performed on the orchest r a ’s “Live From Orchestra Hall” webcast series, the archives will be refreshed with new content each week during the classical season. Users may log on to dso. org/replay to explore the new online environment.
“Thanks to ‘Live From Orchestra Hall,’ lovers of great music have been able to enjoy our performances here in Detroit
no matter where they may be,” said DSO Music Director Leonard Slatkin. “Through Replay, they can relive these concerts whenever they would like.”
The DSO is the first American orchestra to make its performance archives available on- demand. Before this service, past “Live From Orchestra Hall” footage was only available through special encore broadcasts on dso.org/ live or through YouTube clips.
“Today’s audiences crave online content when and where they p le a se ,” said Eric Woodhams, director of digital initiatives. “Replay gives our patrons instant access to a growing
library of performances, with new content added just days after each live classical program all season long. We’re making our incredible DSO even more accessible to audiences — anytime, anywhere on any device.”
D so .o rg /rep lay is online and fully functional with a two-minute preview available to all visitors. An inaugural class of some 5,000 annual fund supporters are immediately eligible to use the new service to its full extent. All patrons who join the annual fund with a gift of $50 or more will receive full access. Viewers may browse content by composer, date or through a rotating series of curated p la y lis ts such as
“Virtuoso Violin,” “Living Composers,” “Made in Am erica” and many more.
Works currently available for streaming cover virtually every era of the classic^ genre, including classics by Beethoven and Mozart, 20th century masterpieces and a sampling by living composers. Ravel’s “Mother Goose Su ite ,” John Corigliano’s “Red Violin” concerto, Tchaikovsky’s Sym phony No. 6 “Pathetique,” Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess,” Orff’s “Carmina Burana” and R im sk y -K o rsak o v ’s “Scheherazade” are just a few.
Streaming is made possible through hosting ser- vices provided by Brightcove.

Q: My son is entering school and has a congenital heart defect. Any advice on how to prepare him for school?
A: For many families, preparing for the upcoming school year is a very busy time. But for those with congenital heart defects, back-to- school issues can mean much more than where to find the coolest notebooks, since a heart condition can have an impact on the student’s performance both in and out of the classroom.
CHD is the leading cause of birth defect-associated infant illness and death. Some of the more common defects include holes in the walls between the heart chambers, abnormal valves and abnormalities in the blood vessels entering or leaving the heart.
Fortunately most children with simple heart defects do not require special care when they attend school. The Centers for Disease Control estimates more than 80 percent of individuals with a mild CHD have no developmental disabilities. However, more than half of those with a more critical type of CHD have some form of disability or impairment.
School employees must be informed of a student’s heart condition and how it may affect school activities. For example, since some kids with CHD can be short of breath after walking, accommodations can be made to allow the child extra time to get to class and not be penalized. Parents, nurses and physicians should provide staff with information about the student’s health, permitted activity level, medications and future treatment.
If a child is going to a new school.
find out ahead of time if there are access issues such as stairs, bathrooms and transportation that can hinder getting around school. Look for accommodations to make the experience easier for all.
The population of people with CHD is growing. It’s important to make students, parents, teachers and the community aware of the prevalence and signs of these defects so the student’s experience in school is optimal.

Charles Burke is president and CEO, Susan Davies is immediate past chairwoman and the Rev. Peter Henry is the board chaplain.
The War Memorial has long been an anchor in the area for community activities and events and as a veterans memorial. As the organization looks to the future, it is elevating its cultural programs with world-class performers and socially relevant speakers and enhancing the hospitality e x p e r ie n c e w ith upgraded interior design, menu and service.
The new board and leadership will play a key
part in that shift, according to Burke.
“The energy and diverse perspectives of our new board represent an exciting time for us here at the War Memorial,” Burke said. “We look with great anticipation to increase our impact on the community and our role as a hub of cultural and civic activities.
“We are fortunate indeed to have a strong, dedicated board chair in Ted Everingham,” he added. “Ted’s professional distinction and his commitment to our community and the growth of the War Memorial will lead the way for an exceptional future. And we are most grateful to our immediate past chair. Sue Davies, for her steadfast guidance of the board in recent years as we transitioned to our new vision and direction.”

6B I CHURCHESP A S T O R 'S C O R N E RBy Pastor Randy Boelter
God’s way of handling life’s stresses
Absolutely every person alive has challenges. In this world, no one I’ve ever met has a completely carefree life. True, there are people who put on a good show. It may appear they don’t have a care in the world, but while we aren’t always aware of another person’s sorrows, everyone has them. In my nearly 30 years of serving this community, I’ve often seen people relying on money, power or notoriety with the hope of eliminating their concerns, only to see these things bringing a whole new set of cares with which to deal. In spite of their best efforts, their anxiety meter continued to spin.
The truth is some of life’s problems are solved readily. Others take time. There also are challenges we must learn to live with, troubles that won’t go away. These are the things that can linger, causing anxiety by day and restlessness by night. Some people tell us, “Forget about it!” We always will find trying to forget our challenges or trying to mask them won’t provide the lasting outcome we desire.
God’s Word brings us a successful solution. Our God and Savior has great advice for us as we handle our cares. Under the inspiration of the Spirit of God, Peter writes: “Throw your worries on God.” The Bible gives us at least two good reasons to handle life this way.
First, we are assured “He (God) cares for you.” Sometimes it becomes difficult for us to tell if certain people really care about us or not. Then there are
those people who care, but only as long as they are receiving from us what they desire. Not so with God though, for He does not relate to us this way. He wants us to know He cares for us perfectly at all times. Sometimes we get so caught up in our worries we find it hard to comprehend God cares about us. That’s when we need to remember His care for us is constant and complete. He takes a personal interest in each of us. That was proven when He gave His one and only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for us. God did all of this for us while we were yet sinners. That means when you and I were not giving any thought of loving Him. The good news is Jesus’ life, death and resurrection are proof God forgives our sins and takes personal and powerful interest in each of us, even in our physical and spiritual problems, now and forever.
Another reason for us to live tossing our cares heavenward is because God is able to deal with the obstacles of life that are too large for us. Jesus Himself said of our Heavenly Father: “Nothing is impossible with God.” God calls, invites us to believe in His power to help as we face our obstacles. So, “cast your cares on Him, because He cares for you” (I Peter 5:7). Many of life’s challenges may be beyond the scope of our power or understanding, but none of them are beyond His.

A cream y sum m er slaw
Coleslaw is a summer favorite of mine. I refuse to purchase the stuff that comes in a tub. I will, however, turn to the bags of shredded cabbage mixed with carrots to get started. This week I’m tossing up a slaw with green goddess dressing. Fresh herbs are packed into this tasty sauce that brings the slaw to a new level.
G reen G o d d ess C o leslaw
1 cup mayonnaise1/2 cup sour cream1/4 cup packed flat-
leaf parsiey1/2 cup packed fresh
basil leaves2 tablespoons fresh,
packed tarragon leaves2 tablespoons fresh
lemon juice1 tablespoon Dijon
mustard1 tablespoon white
wine vinegar1 teaspoon anchovy
pastesalt and pepper to
taste2 14-oz. bags shredded
cabbage, with or without carrots
4 scallions, chopped
Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, basil, tarragon, lemon juice, Dijon, white wine
vinegar and anchovy paste in the bowl of a food p ro cesso r or blender. Pulse or blend until smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Keep in mind the anchovy paste will be a salty addition as well.
Place the shredded cabbage in a large bowl along with the chopped scallions. Pour the sauce over the cabbage. You will use all of the sauce; don’t let any go to waste.
I let the cabbage sit with the sauce for a few minutes before tossing it. Toss the cabbage again and again. Cover tightly and chill until ready to serve. You’ll want to give the slaw at least a couple of hours for the flavors to marry.
Enjoy green goddess coleslaw with anything coming from the grill or a cold sandwich on a hot summer day. This is a delicious, savory take on slaw.
Make sure to really pack the fresh herbs into the measuring cup. If two bags of cabbage is too much for you, use just half of the sauce with one bag of slaw. It is so tasty you’ll find another way to enjoy the remaining green goddess sauce.
S e v e ra l G ro sse Pointers are preparing to ride in the 45th annual Dick Allen Lansing to Mackinaw bicycle tour early next month. Ronald Caraway and Brian Gaggin of the City of Grosse Pointe and Sara Leslie of Grosse Pointe Park will ride their first DALMAC this year, while Logan Oney of Grosse Pointe Park, Robert Sattler of Grosse Pointe Shores and Patrick Arsenault of Grosse Pointe Woods are all veterans of the tour. Arsenault will ride his 19th DALMAC this year.
Founded in 1971 by former State Sen. Dick Allen, DALMAC offers riders a choice of four routes beginning either Wednesday, Sept. 2, or Thursday, Sept. 3, in East Lansing and ending Sunday, Sept. 6, in either Mackinaw City or Sault Ste. Marie, depending on the route chosen. This year’s routes range in distance from 295 to 511 miles. More than 1,600 riders are expected to participate.
DALMAC aims to develop an appreciation of bicycling as recreation and transportation, to prom ote a bicycle- friendly environment in Michigan and to demonstrate how bicycles and other vehicles can safely share state roads. It is a recreational tour open to all capable, interested
Questers keeping busyBy Marti MillerSpecial Writer
“It’s Fun To Search And A Joy To Find.” This statement became the byw ord of Je ss ie E lizabeth B ardens, Questers founder, when she invited 14 friends and colleagues to bring a sandwich and an antique to her Pennsylvania home in 1944. “Through discovery and knowledge of antiques, we may bring the past to life and profit by the experiences of previous generations.”
The people Bardens invited that day were curious and enthusiastic. “The powers of the mind are memory and imagination; for without a memory we have no past and without imagination, no future,” said Bardens. So it follows that Questers, part of an international study organization, have an interest in historical preservation and restoration, as well as research and education concerning antiquities, genealogy, historical sites and monuments. Questers accomplish their goals of preservation and restoration through fundraising and community service. The Quester chapters in Grosse Pointe have an admirable record of community service.
There are five Quester regions in Michigan. Each region is comprised of 16 areas which host two to seven chapters each, totaling 1,000 Michigan members in 65

chapters. Grosse Pointe is the East Area, home to six chapters of Questers: Fox Creek No. 216, President Jacki Stein of Chesterfield; Grand Marais No. 215, President Wendy Jennings of Grosse Pointe; Grosse Pointe No. 147, President Betsy McCormick of Grosse Pointe Farms; Pear Tree No. 193, P residen t M adelein Phillips of Grosse Pointe Shores; Pettipointe No. 243, President Dorothy Tepatti of Warren and Rose Terrace No. 1438, P re s id e n t M arth a Connolly of Grosse Pointe Park.
These chapters have contributed artifacts and to the front porch restoration of the Grosse Pointe H istorical Society’s Provencal-Weir House, restoration of Calder’s “Refracted Rainbow” mobile in Grosse Pointe’s Central Library, improve
ments in Belle Isle’s aquarium signage and restoration of the floor and hand- wrought shutter
a hardw are for Cook School in Grosse Pointe Woods.
M etropolitan beneficiaries of E a s t A re a Questers include Fort Wayne in southwest Detroit with a new furnished room at the o f f ic e r ’s h o u s e , th e Beecher House
on the campus of Wayne State University with a restored Tiffany window, the Hon. Robert Cleland’s co u rtroom in the Theodore Levin U.S. Courthouse in downtown Detroit with the restoration of its portraits of the first and second U.S. district judges for the Eastern D istrict of Michigan and the historic Pewabic Pottery on the east side of Detroit with much needed artistic improvements.
The first East Area chapter was founded by Lillian Pear when she organized Grosse Pointe No. 147. She later became the area’s first national president in 1964-66; Rita Brennan of Fox Creek No. 216 became national president in 1986-88. Questers International takes pride in 900 chapters in 43 states and two Canadian provinces with 15,000 members total.
International headquarte rs is located in Philadelphia in an authentic Federal Period three-story row house built in 1802.
Questers International is a nonprofit organization that promotes study and research, donates funds for restoration and preservation and for conservation of artifacts, existing memorials, historic buildings and landmarks. Chapters also may contribute to the funding of graduate-level scholarships at Columbia University or fellowships at University of Delaware for the study of restoration and preservation.
There is great camaraderie among Questers as they look forward to state and international conventions; opportunities for travel abound. In recent years East Area Questers have enjoyed international conventions in Baltimore; Rogers, Ariz.; Princeton, N.J. and Grand Rapids. Grosse Pointe hosted the 2012 Michigan convention, followed by Plymouth and Mount Clemens in 2013 and 2014. This year’s fall state convention will find state Questers in Livonia.

Lost and foundI t e m r e t u r n e d t o f a m i l y 7 0 y e a r s l a t e r

Lining the walls of the Grosse Pointe War Memorial are grand monuments dedicated to the soldiers of all the World Wars. To the left of the front entrance hangs a small bronze memorial, engraved with the words: “Those who gave their lives in the service of their country, theirs is a monument more lasting t h a n b r o n z e . ” Underneath are listed the names of World War II soldiers, some of them veterans and others who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Among the names is Thomas E. Lamb, a tail gunner for the U.S. Army Air Corps and a soldier of the 451st Squadron.
Lamb was born in 1924, in Pennsylvania, to Elwood “Red” Lamb and Leila Leach. The family moved to a small house on Nottingham Road in Grosse Pointe Park in the 1930s. Elwood Lamb worked mainly as a wallpaper salesman in the area. In 1935, when
Thomas Lamb was 10, his mother, who had been ill for some time, passed away from ovarian cancer. Soon after, father and son left their home to live in a boarding house. Occasionally, Lamb would visit his cousins in Ohio, growing closer to these relatives and eventually moving there to live with them for a time.
“My g randparen ts stepped in to raise Tom after his mother’s death. In some ways, he was like a son to them,” said Dan Lamb, a cousin.
Lamb eventually found his way back into Grosse Pointe life. He attended Grosse Pointe High School where he rose in popularity and his interest and involvement in activities grew and flourished. He became captain of the football team, played on the school’s baseball team, worked on its newspaper and was stage manager for its theater group. During his junior year, news of the bombing in Pearl Harbor arrived.
“Like a lot of the guys

his age, he answered the call,” Dan Lamb said of his cousin, who enlisted into the U.S. Army Air Corps his senior year, February, 1943.
Lamb was transferred to the 451st Squadron and trained in the 322 Bomb Group. He became a tail gunner for a B-26 Marauder, often referred to as “Widow Maker.” He operated a .50-caliber machine gun from the rear of the bomber.
“The thing about that role is that you had to be an alpha male. You had to want to protect everyone on that ship and firmly believe that you were the best man to do it,” Dan Lamb said, adding it took skills in strength and endurance to do the job well. “It’s nice to think Tom would be the type of guy that would have the courage to take on that task and have the athleticism to do it well.”
The 451st Squadron spent most of its energy in defense of France and after the liberation of Paris, it moved on to Beauvais, then finally to Goincourt.
B-26 Marauders had a long history of accidents during takeoffs and landings and on March 18, 1945, such an accident occurred. Three B-26 Marauders were gathering in formation to leave on a mission out of G o incourt. Lam b’s bomber was the first to take flight and things went smoothly; however, trouble with the other two bombers during formation resulted in a crash. The force from the explosion offset Lamb’s plane and sent it crashing down to an orchard below. Eighteen soldiers, including Thomas Lamb, were killed in the acci-

dent; only the lead pilot survived.
The tow nspeop le brought flower bouquets to the squadron for the funeral.
“The town was there to support them and express their gratitude to the soldiers,” Dan Lamb said. At home. Lamb’s relatives in Ohio took it very hard. “My dad was a year younger than him. (Lamb) was a great guy, someone I think my father looked up to.”
Dan Lamb said his grandmother was reluctant to tell her sons about the accident while they were alone overseas because of their strong relationship with Lamb.
However the memories of Lamb did not end at his death and neither does his story. A few years after the tragedy, a resident of the Goincourt named Guy Cocu was gardening in his backyard and unearthed a silver bracelet with the name “Tom Lamb” engraved on one side and the numbers “16160208” on the other. Cocu determined the bracelet had probably belonged to a soldier and through research he discovered the story of the plane crash as well as a record of victims of the crash.
Cocu searched for Lamb’s relatives for a number of years without success.
“He had a lot of compassion for servicemen. He wanted to find the family and close the book

on this and make a connection,” Dan Lamb said.
It wasn’t until he read a b o u t D o m in iq u e Lecomte in a local newspaper that his luck began to change. Lecomte is chairman of an association that helps family members of American, Australian and English soldiers reconnect with members of French families who aided servicemen during the war.
“As soon as Mr. Cocu contacted me in June 2014,1 had promised him to do everything possible to find the family of this airman. I knew 1 could count particularly on two friends,” Lecomte said. Those friends were Vancouver genealogist Janice Kidwell and N ancy Scovill of California.
In January 2015, Dan Lamb received a call from Scovill. According to Dan Lamb, on confirmation she had finally reached the Lamb family, she said, “We’re popping champagne bottles to have found you .... We have been looking for a
long time to find you guys.”
Contact information was shared and e-mails flew between the Lamb family and Lecomte.
A ceremony was held in France June 13 for the return of the bracelet. Dan Lamb and a few of his sisters traveled to the event to represent the family. Many in the village attended as did historians, writers, Lecomte, Cocu and his wife. The mayor has since mentioned he is interested in erecting a memorial for victims of the crash.
Before leaving for home, the Lambs were able to view the grave in Epinal where their cousin is buried. Now that the bracelet has returned to the Lambs, they plan to treasure it and pass it down as a family heirloom, keeping Lamb’s story alive for years to come.
“The story of the bracelet of Sgt. Thomas E. Lamb is incredible,” said Lecomte. “It is both a tragic and a beautiful story.”

National runner-upUniversity Liggett senior Emily Kanakry and Grosse Pointe North senior Liz Grumeretz helped the 16U Team Michigan squad take second out of 66 teams in the ASA Northern Nationals in Novi. The girls played fantastic hall and showed tenacity throughout. They even came back from a 6-1 deficit in the bottom of the 7th with two outs to win 7-6 and stay undefeated in bracket play. This was the last year of travel softball for Sam Gibson, who will enter Michigan State University to become a doctor after graduation in 2016. Shayna Frank went 6-1 on the mound in the tourney and the team posted a whopping .453 batting average. The ladies built momentum on the previous week’s success in Chicago after placing sixth at the PGF Nationals. The rest of the players are Jimi McNew, Kendall Shephard, Franny Ortisi, Nina Szalkiewicz, Alexis Nowowiecki, Macie Keller and Sydney Wilcox.

This was Chrumka’s final race as a Stanford student-athlete and the boat competitors practiced only two weeks together because they were involved in the
NCAA Championships Varsity 8-i- prior to heading to England.
Not only has Chrumka succeeded as an athlete, earning All-Pac 12, CRCA All-Region 5 Second Team, but academically too, earning Pac 12 All-Academic Second Team her senior year.
“She is a great inspiration for success in the classroom and on the water for young Grosse Pointe athletes,” said friend and fellow South graduate, Maggie Fragel.

The Blue Devils finished seventh, beating Macomb Lutheran North 4-2.
I^an Kotas had the hot hand, scoring two goals, as the team salvaged one game in the tournament.
South opened its season with a 4-1 loss to the host Yellowjackets as
Sebastian Simon tallied the lone goal.
In the first game of the second day of competition, the Blue Devils lost 3-0 to Royal Oak to send them to seventh- and eighth-place game.

ISchools close achievement gapBy Mary Anne BrushStaffWriter
Deputy Superintendent Jon Dean reported at the Grosse Pointe Public School System board meeting Tuesday, Aug. 17, that five of the seven GPPSS schools placed on the Focus Schools list in 2012 had been re m o v e d . T ro m b ly Elementary School and Pierce Middle School were released at the end of the 2014-15 school year and Defer and Ferry elementary schools and Parcells Middle School were released as of the previous week. School administrators had not yet received the final data from the Michigan Department of Education.
Focus Schools was created by MDE in 2012 to identify schools with the largest achievement gaps between its top 30 percent of students and its bottom 30 percent, based on average scale score. According to MDE, identifying Focus Schools is a critical step toward Michigan achieving its overriding goal of closing the achievement gap within schools and reducing the achievement gap statewide.
“We work very intentionally with our teachers and our adm inistrators to address the needs of all of our students,” said Dean. “One of the challenges we have, as soon as we start talking about under-performing lower groups of students, the question is how are you addressing this? Are you addressing this by bringing the top down or are you bringing the bottom up? Our focus all along in working with our
teachers is how can we bring our bottom students up.”
W h ile P o u p a r d Elementary School and Grosse Pointe North High School, both placed on the Focus School list in 2013, remain. Dean is optimistic their status will change.
“We have been told by MDE that those schools have been making significant growth,” Dean said. “We requested that they release those schools from the FOCUS list as well; they declined. They indicated that in another two years they will reevaluate that decision. So if we can continue the strong gains we have had at those two schools, we anticipate those final two schools being removed. So in short it’s a really good thing that we have schools being removed from this watch list and we look forward to continuing to work with all of our kids.”
While several board members expressed dissatisfaction with the MDE’s method for evaluating schools, the general consensus was that strides had been made in a positive direction and teachers and staff at all of the schools were to be commended.
“We are making tangible progress in almost every metric you can identify,” Dean said.
“We have an outstanding staff that works with and for our students,” said Judy Gafa, board president. “Let’s just keep up the hard work and hopefully they come up with a better way to rank our schools.”
W inning Mars team visits APLFor the second year, students
from Grosse Pointe North High School were selected as the first place team for their Mars research project as part of the Mars Exploration Student Data Teams competition, a national program jointly sponsored by NASA and Arizona State University.
The students were members of the Radio Astronomy Team, a North club. They elected to do Mars research as an additional activity, working throughout the school year, after school and on weekends. Joey Bejin, Gabby Feeny and Jamie Lackner had worked on Mars research in previous years. They were joined by new members Nate Atkinson, Michelle Bridges and Adam Gellert.
The team researched an area in the southern hemisphere of Mars called Terra Sirenum. The area contains some of the oldest terrains and large craters that might have been lakes in Mars’s ancient past. The goal of the research was to

investigate if two of the craters shared a common aquifer.
In the MESDT program, students participated in a series of training webinars from Mars scientists and discussed their

questions through an online forum. They presented their research via a PowerPoint presentation, along with other high school teams from across the country, during a web conference call with Mars scientists in May.
The team received a travel scholarship for winning the competition. They spent two days in early August at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Md. Students toured various labs to see where spacecraft and instruments were designed, built and tested. They presented their research again as part of a colloquium with college interns who had spent their summers working at APL.
One highlight was a morning geology field trip to collect rocks, led by planetary geologist Kim Seelos. Later that afternoon, the team extracted infrared spectra from the rock specimens, in much the same way they studied the rocks on Mars. The group also enjoyed a dinner with planetary scientists and engineers.
