As the SUN goes to press, Tribal Funding, Inc. is making final preparations for filing its lawsuit against City Council Republicans for robbing the People's Ballroom project. The Republicans illegally ripped off $15,000 in federal revenue-sharing money committed by contract to Tribal Funding for purchasing a new People's Ballroom. (See SUN, Issue No. 53)

The suit, to be filed in Circuit Court by attorney Don Koster, charges that the Republican City Council breached the Tribal Funding revenue contract by impounding the People's Ballroom funds and using the money instead for the general budget. The suit also charges that the Republican power-play is part of a malicious conspiracy by Republicans to snuff the People's Ballroom out of Ann Arbor's future.

A thorough report on the lawsuit will follow in the next issue of the SUN.

Funds are urgently needed at this time to cover the expenses of the many hours of investigation, research and courtroom struggle required to fight the Republicans' abuse of power. The Republicans skulk around the People's Ballroom project like a pack of wolves around a wounded bear-they've got to be beaten back at every turn. Please send your contributions, however small or large, to Tribal Funding, Inc.,1510 Hill Street, Ann Arbor. , For further information, contact Dave Sinclair at 769-5850 or David Fenton at the SUN, 761-7148.
