LeAnne Rogers Staff Writer It only seems appropriate that Westland John Glenn High School, named for an astronaut, was built with a planetarium. When the school opened in 1964, the planetarium was state of the art and built with a grant from NASA. Nearly 50 years later, it’s in disrepair, prompt­ ing fundraising efforts that got a boost Monday from local groups and some oneupman- ship. “I got an email a month ago from a Glenn alumni looking to put together a fundraiser to restore the planetarium. I didn’t know it was in disrepair,” Wayne-Ford Civic League President Vic Barra said. “When I was in third grade, I walked from Edison Elemen­ tary School to go to the plane­ tarium. I never forgot the expe­ rience.” BILL BRESLER | STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER An estimated $45,000 is Vietnam veteran Sid Morris of Westland salutes during the playing of taps at the annual POW/MIA ceremony. needed for the restoration of the planetarium, which still uses a 35-millimeter slide car­ Sue Mason MIA ceremony. said. “Let us remember those who did not ousel, Glenn principal David Staff Writer The ceremony acknowledged the sac­ make it home.

OUR VIEWS Plan now to vote in November’s general election With fewer candidates in the races for mayor, clerk and city council in Wayne, Westland and Garden City, we hope more people vote in the Nov. 3 election, when the winners will be decided. Now is a good time to register to vote, if you haven’t already. September is National Voter Regis­ tration Month, established by the National Associa­ tion of Secretaries of State in 2002 to encourage voter participation and increase awareness of state re­ quirements and deadlines for voting. In 2008, 6 million Americans didn’t vote because they missed a registration deadline or didn’t know how to register. National Voter Registration Month presents an opportunity to reach the nearly one out of every seven American citizens of voting age (18 years or older) who are eligible, but not yet registered, to vote. Do your part to celebrate National Voter Registra­ tion Month — get registered to vote. If you are eligi­ ble to vote, take a few minutes to check your voter registration information. Updated information is critical to casting your vote Election Day. If you aren’t already registered to vote, make sure you do so in time for the November general election. And being out of town or too busy to vote Nov. 3 is not an excuse. Absentee ballot applications are available in all communities. FILE PHOTO Why should want people to get out and vote? Participating in an election begins by registering to vote.
