Q-2 THE STATE JOURNAL June 14. 1976 Metro Roundup MSU students plan 'dig' this summer at remains of old mills in Okemos Probate judge candidate State UW chief named keeping the terrain undisturbed except by the authorized crew. Arrangements for the archeological work this summer were made with Meridian Township trustees. Ferguson Park will continue to be available to picnickers and others. No more than two test sites (5 by 5 feet or 5 by 10 feet) will be excavated at any time.

In all, eight or 10 such sites will be examined by the MSU crew, Martin said. ALL SALVAGED materials will be saved and their locations recorded. Detailed records, including sketches and photos of the archeological work and finds, will be kept. All artifacts will be brought back to the MSU Museum for cleaning, cataloging and description and will be kept there, fully accessible to township representatives for study or display. later and a new mill-race was cut across the bend in the river to divert the flow to the mill wheel.

Traces of the millrace are still visible along the northern edge of Wonch Park. BY 1880, the sawmill had been dismantled and rebuilt at Shaftsburg. But Mrs. Davis research indicates the gristmill was not razed until 1915. In the 1930s, the Ingham County Road Commission built Ferguson Park on the mill site and Meridian Township maintains it.

THE MSU diggers expect their operations will attract many "sidewalk superintendents" to watch the detailed work of salvaging artifacts from layers of earth at the historic site. THE SPECTATORS are asked by Martin and Mrs. Davis to honor the need for Remains of old grist mills and sawmills which lined the south bank of the Red Cedar river in Okemos more than a century ago are hidden below the soft earth of Ferguson Park. But they may see the light of day this summer during a six-week archeological "dig" by Michigan State University students. TEN STUDENTS, under the direction of Patrick Martin, MSU doctoral candidate in anthropology who has directed several MSU "digs" in the Mackinac Straits area, will take part in the field work program from June 20 through July 30.

History of the Okemos mills goes back to a sawmill built by Freeman Bray in 1842. It included a turning lathe and a cabinet shop and burned in 1846 and was quickly replaced by another sawmill on the same site by-new owners. Research into the milt history was done by Mrs. Elaine Davis of Okemos at the state library, Okemos library and the register of deeds office in the Ingham County Courthouse at Mason. IN 1855, the water-powered sawmill was augmented by a sawmill driven by a steam engine, and the next year a second gristmill was built, also steam-operated.

All three mills were in operation until 1858 when the Red Cedar burst the dam built across it and the water-powered mill was closed. By I860, the sawmill was cutting 1,000,000 board feet of lumber per year and the gristmill ground 6,000 bushels of flouer per year, according to the U. S. Census. In September, 1863, both steam-powered mills were destroyed in a fire 'that caused an estimated $7,000 damage.

The dam and mills were rebuilt three years Donald J. Pizzimenti, government relations coordinator for Detroit Edison, was installed as president of the Michigan United Way at the organization's annual meeting in Lansing this week.

TROOPERS SAID Cox was a passenger in a car which ran off Hughes road, on the north side of Lake Chemung and struck a utility pole about 10 p.m. Troopers Three area people die on roads said they will seek a warrant on the unidentified driver Monday.

Franklin Alchin, 43, of Webbervilie was killed Sunday while riding in a car which struck a tree in Concluded from page B-l This has been a refreshing change." McDonald said. He noted that Breitmeyer talked with more than 100 agencies in Gratiot to gather information and said everyone was impressed with his easy manner. "Because of him. everyone up here seems to know what our problems are. They are real pros and that is something very rare in someone so young." McDonald said.

The two men are the only full-time consultants in CCRP. A third employe works when needed; and occasionally part-time research help is hired. But because of the non-profit nature of CCRP, considerable free research even labor is available and they frankly admit to using every source possible. They delved through many statistics existing regional planning agencies had compiled, which save time and money. Students are used too.

Both Breitmeyer and Miller teach at the University of Michigan part-time and their students and others often help in CCRP projects. In addition to consulting and teaching work the two men are also involved in volunteer activities at Southern Michigan Prison. Each spends two Saturdays a month working with Latino and other inmates there. Knowing inmate problems and needs is just as vital in jail planning as the warden's point of view, they say. Teaching is the "release valve" thai "gives us balance." By working with students who are enthusiastic they get "restimulated." Both are especially proud they have never "played lunch games" to get a job.

CCRP has no money to "wine and dine" prospective clients and that has not hurt them. Neither do they spend money on public relations or advertising. Word of mouth and satisfied clients land them their jobs. Just how far such a reputation can travel became evident recently when the Cheyenne River Sioux i ribe asked Rod to come to Colorado. They want CCRP to make a study for a posposed regional cor-'rections center for Indians from Montana.

and South Dakota, Nebraska and Minnesota. Both counties have been told by-state correction officials in recent years that their respective facilities do not meet today's standards. All of the recommendations will be geared to meet the new jail code. That is important as county officials don't want to build or remodel and then have the facility outdated before the paint is dry. Rod and John say they have "done a lot of learning while earning" in the past three years.

And they are still new enough at their work to get excited when they discover something interesting. "You just have to see this." Rod said, showing how the Clinton jail was constructed of steel back in 1950. He proclaimed it to be "sturdy as a battleship" and quipped that the whole building would have to be taken to an auto repair shop if the seams ever pop. Unfortunately, the sturdy structure is too small for today's needs. Among ideas Rod will present to Clinton commissioners will be suggestions on how the building can be adapted to other use if a new jail is built.
