According to the Ontonagon County Sheriffs Department, an eastbound vehicle, driven by Michael John Preiss, Rockland, turned left off M-26 into the path of a westbound vehicle driven by Mark Maroste, Hancock. The vehicles collided.

Both drivers and a passenger in the Maroste vehicle, Samuel Roy Maroste, Hancock, complained of pain and sought their own medical treatment. A passenger in the Preiss vehicle, Tricia Ann Preiss, Rockland, was not injured. Police said both vehicles received extensive damage in the accident. DETROIT (AP) Dan Pero's vacation two weeks ago may have played a role in Gov. John gler's decision last week to say no expanding gambling in Michigan.

Engler told The Detroit News Ithat one reason for his decision against more gambling was "the selling effort on behalf of casinos as a magic cure-all to Detroit's problems." Pero, former chief of staff and now the presidential manager for former Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alex- bander, said he was on vacation in I New Orleans when he read a newspaper report detailing how that city's casino developers overstated the benefits of their projects. One of New Orleans casino developers was Harrah's, the company backing the Foxtown casino near the Fox Theatre. "If gaming was such a mess in 'New Orleans and failed to live up to the promises of promoters, I felt that was worth discussing," Pero said. "I sent up the article along with a personal note that I felt was relevant.

"The point I made was that other cities that have found themselves in dire straits did not turn to gaming as a solution. You look at Cleveland, Baltimore, Seattle, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and other old industrial towns. It's not an overnight endeavor to turn things around, but a long struggle." Supporters hoped that the Foxtown project would be too much for Engler to reject because it would have the economic impact to outweigh any concerns Engler might have about an expansion of Indian gambling. Planners wanted to use some of the proceeds from gambling to leverage a new $200-million Tiger Stadium in the neighborhood. Aiding the developers' pitch were influential Republicans headed by Lansing lawyer Richard McLelian, long said to be Engler's best friend, and Tom Shields, president of Marketing Resource Group and another longtime Republican operative and Engler friend.

Perhaps most persuasive of all, the project had money. Engler assigned his top aides to study all the proposals. Privately, the governor's aides encouraged Foxtown developers. They also encouraged the Greektown promoters, which had been approved by Detroit voters. DNR begins banding Canada geese GREENVILLE, Mich.

(AP) With Michigan's Canada geese population in its molting season over the next couple of weeks, state officials are hard at work trapping and banding them. Some will be taken to gaming refuges and others will be relocated to other states. But the geese population is growing so fast that state officials also are considering donating some to food shelters. One of the benefits of banding the geese is that it will help accurately establish the number, of Canada geese in the state. Such proof of overpopulation would allow the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to expand the hunting season.

Lauder backs Hurley, who deserts Grant LONDON (AP) Liz Hurley has parted from errant boyfriend Hugh Grant, at least for a while, but her well-paid job as a model for Estee Lauder seems secure. "We stand by any decision Elizabeth makes in her personal life and have not offered her any advice. And, of course, our campaign is going forward as planned," company president Leonard Lauder said in a statement Sunday night.

"We are supportive of Elizabeth in every way. She is terrific. We are extremely pleased with the work she is doing for us." Grant was arrested Tuesday in Los Angeles with a prostitute, Stella Marie Thompson. Both were charged with engaging in a lewd act in a public place, and are due in court July 18. Grant, 34, star of "Four Weddings and a Funeral," joined Miss Hurley Friday at the couple's rented farm house in western England.

Miss Hurley, 29, left Saturday to stay with a friend, Lord Henry Brocklehurst, at his castle in Gloucestershire. "She is bearing up under the stress and pressure. She has made no decision about the future of her relationship," Brocklehurst told reporters Sunday. He said she was planning to leave the country for a while. "Normally, the only way we know the numbers is by somebody locating a dead bird or by hunters in the fall," said DNR habitat wildlife biologist Dave Smith.

"Butby putting these markers on them, we can identify the bird year round." Canada geese molt for two or three weeks and are unable to fly, allowing trappers to easily catch them.
