DETROIT STADIUM CAMPAIGN STRESSES CLARIFICATION

     Backers of the ballot initiatives to build a new Tiger
Stadium in Detroit are raising $600,000 to use on TV, direct
mail, radio, cable and print media ads in an effort to clarify
the language of the measure.  Robert Sherefkin reports in CRAIN'S
DETROIT BUSINESS that the two competing stadium proposals placed
before voters March 19 will need examination by voters.  While a
yes vote on Proposal A opposes spending city money for a new
stadium, a yes on Proposal B supports the stadium.  Only Proposal
A is binding.  Donors to the effort include GM, Detroit Edison,
and Comerica Bank (CRAIN'S DETROIT BUSINESS, 2/26 issue).
