v. mm Mall vote spending lid sought By JOHN SCHNEIDER Staff Writer In an attempt to hold back what it calls "a tidal wave of dollars," the main opposition to the Dayton Hudson mall has called for a spending ceiling on the upcoming referendum. "This issue should be decided at the ballot box, and not on an auction block for votes," said James Anderson, leader of the East Lansing Citizens for a Livable Community (CLC). "Beyond a $15,000 spending limit, votes are being bought, not sought," he added. THE CLC, which has spearheaded the drive against the mall, is supported by voluntary contributions.

The group made its proposal for a to Dayton Hudson Corp. last week. A letter sent to Dayton Hudson said, "We believe that this limit makes an exceptionally generous allowance for the corporation to justify its mall location." Anderson further indicated that the CLC would be willing to discuss an even lower limit, pointing to the fact that city council races are "normally run for half or even one-third the $15,000 proposed." "LET US agree at the outset," the CLC wrote to Dayton Hudson, "not to make a mockery of grass roots democracy with a tidal wave of dollars." The letter called for a response from Dayton Hudson by Sept. 1. Contacted this morning, Dayton Hudson attorney Peter Hutchinson declined to reveal the company's position on the plan.

"I WILL tell you, however," he said, "that we're just as concerned as Mr. Anderson to stop (the referendum campaign) from becoming a circus. We do not plan a media blitz, but a person-to-person campaign based on fact, not assertion." Following a year of skirmishes, Dayton Hudson and the CLC will square off this November. East Lansing voters will be asked whether or not they want a regional shopping mall built at Lake Lansing Road and U.S. 127.

That vote will determine whether Dayton Hudson will give up its attempt to build the mall or proceed with construction as planned. Picketing halts Kellogg classes BATTLE CREEK (AP) Students at Kellogg Community College were sent home on the first day of fall classes today as faculty members and maintenance workers hit the picket lines in a strike. But classes began as scheduled at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo after teachers narrowly defeated a motion to reject a new three-year contract. Members of the Kellogg Faculty Association voted unanimously Sunday night to strike, and vowed to file unfair labor practices charges against the administration over what the union called a lack of progress in negotiations. College officials had vowed to hold classes even if the teachers struck, but shortly after 8 a.m told the nearly 5,000 students to go home.

There was no immediate word on whether classes would be held Tuesday. A university spokesman said officials would "pursue the alternatives open to it" presumably including firings should the strike continue. The 96 teachers and maintenance workers have been without a contract since Aug. 16. Contract negotiations broke off over the weekend, and no new talks were scheduled.

A union spokesman said the teachers would gladly return to the table at the administration's request. Neither side would disclose points in the dispute or contract offers. In Kalamazoo, members of the American Association of University Professors voted 273-264 against a motion that would have rejected the university's latest contract offer and led to a strike on the first day of classes. Though without a formal contract, faculty members worked today under provisions of the new proposal. Girl killed when buggy hits tree DETROIT (AP) A 17-yearold Highland Park girl is dead because the pony-drawn buggy she was driving crashed into a tree on Belle Isle.

Police said they were trying to find out whey the 6-year-old Shetland pony pulling the car galloped off a mile-long track and rammed into a tree in a nearby wooded picnic area Saturday. Carol Elaine Barrette died of head injuries Sunday at Detroit General Hospital. The owner said the pony, Butterball, had been around the track at least 20 times that day and 1,000 times this summer without accident. "We don't have any problems until people start running the horses," said the owner, Chris Walton. It had not been determined, however, whether the dead girl sent the pony into a gallop, or whether he took off by himself.
