In the story of Humpty Dumpty, at least all the
Kin _-'s hor%es and all the King's men tried to put the
(Jtx)med egg back together again.
The same can't be said for the members of
Pickering Council or Heritage Pickering in the case
of the historic CampbeIUMcPherson house.
The 151 year-old house, home to several promi-
nent local citizens of by -gone times and a big piece
of Pickering's history, is now just in pieces.
The work to tear down the home began last
Friday and is expected to be completed this week.
leaving only memories and vague promises that the
home will be rebuilt on another site in the future.
Neglected for 20 years while keeping a lonely
vigil in a corner of Lynn Heights Park - its last ten-
ant was the late Jean McPherson, a former deputy
reeve of Pickering - the house has been left to dete-
riorate, especially since the town took over owner-
ship in 1984.
When its time came - a backhoe had stood poised
in front of the home for days, waiting for the
demolition permit like a predator waiting for the
right moment to pounce - the evidence of that
neglect was only too apparent. Windows were
smashed, the front stoop was crumbling, chunks of
some of the stonework was missing and the roof
was in disrepair.
Even the man in charge of the home's destruction
was cognizant of history crumbling away.
Ray Winterstein, contracted to dismantle the
house (while taking care to preserve the corner
stones, lintel stones, and as much of the feature
stonework as possible) says the job is far from his

Ajax celebrates- as town reclaims waterfront
By John C00W o
A decade after the process began,
the vision of former Ajax Mayor
Bill McLean to acquire a 10 -acre
piece of property, giving the town
ownership of an 8.7 -kilometre
stretch of waterfront, was fulfilled
in a June 16 announcement by
Mayor Steve Parish.
The deal involved a $350,000
purchase with money from the
town's reserve fund and a property
swap between the town, developer
The Hi -Rise Group and a private -
sector youth facility. Council
formally signed the deal at its June
17 meeting and the town oficWly
takes over the land July 30.
Parish lauded the efforts of all
involved, including Ajax Chief
Administrative Officer Barry
Malmsten, Waterfront Regeneration
Trust Commissioner David Crombie
and Durham West MPP Janet Ecker.
The late Bill McLean, mayor of
Ajax in the mid -80's when
discussions began, was also given
special praise by seven] councillors
for "starting the process."
Parish said the deal, giving Ajax
the longest publicly -owned stretch
of waterfront in the Greater Toronto
Area, is an apt legacy for future
town councils. The land will be
incorporated into the Ajax
Waterfront and Waterfront Trail
system.
"It has always been a priority of
Past councils to acquire this
property," said Parish. "It really
started in earnest after the last
election."
The Hi -Rise Group's original
Plans for the cm mercial/residential
property, at the foot of Harwood
Avenue, included 91 townhouse
units. When council insisted that the
developers include a marina
discussion stalled. Hi -Rise took its
case to the Ontario Municipal
Board, which sided with the town.
To break the impasse, the town
proposed an exchange of lands
involving Hi -Rise and Scarborough -

Cooking cookbook, there are
easy -to -matte recipes guaranteed
to please everyone, from the semi-
vegetarian to the lacto-vegetarian.
"There are a lot of meals you
may currently be serving your
family that can be easily modified
to suit a vegetarian diet. It all
depends on what kind of food
your teenage vegetarian will eat."
In fact, there are four main types
of vegetarianism, each with its
own separate philosophy and eat-
ing style.
Semi -vegetarians, for example,
usually avoid red meat, but may
include dairy, eggs, poultry and
fish. "Cooking for semi or `new'
vegetarians," says Stern, "is very
easy. Simply replace red meat
dishes with chicken or fish."
It takes a bit more imagination
to satisfy Lacto-Ovo vegetarians,
who eat no meat, poultry or fish.
They do, however, enjoy milk
products and eggs, as well as veg-
etables, grains, legumes, fruits
and nuts. If you're looking for
recipes to feed your lotto-ovo
teen, try the Baked French Toast
for Simply NeartSmart Cooking,
or the Chevre and Fresh Herb
Souffle.
As the name implies, Lacto-
vegetarians, eat milk products, but
no eggs, meat, fish or poultry.
And Vegans exclude all the above
from their diets. These two
groups are, by far, the most chal-
lenging ones to feed, although
certainly not impassible.
"Vbgetabie burgers are a great

tarians," says Bonnie Stern.

Brenner threatens school building coup
The Durham Boardof
Education's decision to shut down
some schools early next
September has community groups
angry and Pickering councillor
Maurice Brenner threatening a
hostile takeover.
The board, faced with a $4
million cut in their plant and
maintenance budget next year, has
axed custodial overtime at 27
schools, a $400,000 savings. The
hardest hit will be Rosebank
Public School, which will have its
doors locked at 4:30 p.m.
That decision has shut out
community groups Ike brownies
and cub scouts, who were out in
full force at Pickering Council
Monday night.
Bill Trapper, a Rouge Hill
Beaver Colony leader, said the
early closure will leave his group,
which has been meeting at the
school for more than 20 years,
without a home. "Let's not destroy
a community's future or its
traditions just to save a few
bucks."
Fiona Bain -Greenwood, the
president of Rosebank Public
School Parents Association, noted
that the early closure will also
shut down her group, which meets
in the evenings.
Brenner, who called the
decision "draconian," warned the
board to "back off' on their ruling
or face a "takeover" by the
ministry of education.
"The ministry is looking at
cost -culling ;uch as transferring
capital buildings to
municipalities. Maybe this would
make a great pilot project," he
said. "Exclusion of public groups
horn publically-owned buildings
will not be tolerated."
Audrey MacLean, the school
board chair, is wondering what all
the fuss is about, however. She
said she hasn't received any calls
about the decision and wondered
why the community didn't come
directly to the board with their
concerns.
"I'd be happy to meet with
them. My door is always open,"
she said. (Pickering) council has
no jurisdiction or authority."

school board agenda requires an

MacLean said she expects the

She said alternatives are being

that might violate union

Rouge Park Vegetation Management Study will identify techniques for ensuring the
ongoing health of the park's native plant communities and restore the park's vegetation to
as close a "natural state" as possible. The Rouge Park Trail Development and
Management Plan will identify a trail network that will help the park achieve its
educational and recreational roles.
The public is invited to participate in these projects by attending two events scheduled for
Saturday, June 22, 1996:
1) Rouge Park Vegetation Management Study
A Public Meeting and Field Walk will introduce the project and its objectives,
including background information on the park's vegetation. The event includes a one-
hour field walk to discuss some of the issues the study will address. Appropriate
clothing and footwear should be wom for the field walk.
Date: June 22, 1996
Time: 10 a.m. - 12 p.m.
2) Rouge Park Trail Development and Management Plan
A Trails Open House will allow the public to view displays and discuss trails with
members of the trail project team in the morning (10 a.m. - 12 p.m.). A Trails
Workshop in the afternoon (1 p.m. - 4 p.m.) includes a brief presentation on the trail
planning process, followed by discussion to identity trail planning issues and criteria.

Editorial Opinion
............................
And all is history
rf there is anyone out there who still believes that Pickering is not in seri-
ous trodble, we hope you will take time to digest the importance of this
week's corer story.
The Campbell -!McPherson house is gone.
Regardless of its historical significance, the decision to demolish this
once -beautiful home was senseless. Elegant to the end, it was a home most
people would be proud to own and pre for.
But this house also happened to be one of the towns oldest and rarest.
Buil around 1845 and home to at least two important personages who are
remembered for what they gave to this area in the past, it was also one of the
few stone farmhouses of its type still remaining in this pan of southern
Ontario.
In the minds of many, the loss of this particular home will be seen as solid
evidence of all that is sick and sorry about the Town of Pickering as it is
today. Calling it a 'removal.' numbering the stones and storing than, along
with comer and lintel stoma somewhere up in Clammotx, in no way guaran-
tees restoration. The history is gone in any case. This was nothing more than
demolition made fancy, so as to appear that someone —anyone — really
cared.
The decision -makers in the Town, grossly negligent in caring for this
priceless piece of our heritage land it did belong to the taxpayers), first
allowed the building to rot and then decided they waned it gone; the neigh-
bours, distraught by its condition, quite mammy played 'into this when they
requested that it be moved. But who destroys anything of such value when,
dor the same f 15.000 a tenant could be installed who would live in and fa up
the place?
On December 7, Heritage Pickering (the Local A dijecti al Cooaavation
Advismy Committee) was given until September of 1996, 'b determine
whether that was any interest in using the smictme or coaor l atiug In its nm -
ovation and preservatim titter financially or otbawise.' But last weds, tut
even wilting In wait the time allowed, Pickering polled tie phig when caaail-
las Dictason and k hnson called for the lioihe's immediate removal.

September kick-off
for Workfare
Durham Region asked for it:
now they've got it.
Durham was one of 20
municipalities selected last week
to be guinea pigs for the
provincial government's contro-
versial workfare program, which
will begin in September.
The program will face some
welfare recipients to perform
community work for their pay
cheques, with full
implementation across Ontario
by 1998.
Community and Social
Services minister Dave
Tsubouchi said the program
moves social assistance "from a
hand-out to a hand -up" system.
"This program is dedicated to
helping people break the cycle
of dependency."
Welfare recipients will also
gain skills, self-confidence,
contacts to assist them in fading
a job and the "opportunity to
give something back to the com-
munity." Tsubouchi added.
Durham voted 24-5 last
month in favor of participating
in Workfare. "so we can do it
our way," noted Oshawa
councillor Pauline Beale.
The program came under fire
at the region from some
councillors for its "boot camp"
connotations, including Ajax
Mayor Steve Parish, who said he
has "serious concerns," and
Whitby Mayor Tom Edwards,
who claims workfare will not be
successful.
Workfare has also been
publically blasted by labor
groups, with several vowing to
pull funding from the local
United Way if the charitable
organization participates in the
program.
Work -for Welfare will cost
Durham about $300,000
(Queen's Park pays 80 per cent)
and will initially serve 1,800 of
the 6,000 eligible residents.
Seniors and people with
disabilities will be exempt and
as the program expands, single
parents (except those with small
children) will have to
participate.
The program still requires
ratification by regional council,
which isn't expected until after
the summer recess.

Upper Canada Funding Inc.
by Marjorie Green
On Saturday, lune 22, lovers of nature and the environment will
gather at the southeast corner of the Don Valley Parkway and
Lawrence Ave. East. Beginning at 8 am., they will spend the day
helping to clean up garbage and litter along the Don River. The day
will include picnic refreshments starting at 11 am., the opportunity
to walk the site and the invitation to plant wildflowers.
But this will not just be a day outdoors. For those who choose to
come, it will be an opportunity to participate in Charles Sauriol's
dream - a dream to return Milne Hollow to the urban wilderness it
was in the days of his youth.
Charles Sauriol was 92 when he died peacefully, at his typewriter,
while working on what would be his last book. He had spent a life-
time pursuing the conservation of natur-
al lands all across Canada, having been
instrumental in bringing thousands of
S acres of resource lands under the stew-
ardship of responsible conservation
agencies.
In 1993, The Charles Sauriol
Environmental Land Trust Fund was cre-
ated to assure the continuance and per-
petuation of the work he had begun.
On meeting the man, one would
instantly be taken in by his charm; his
tense of showmanship. Within moments
'he would have the listener sold on help-
ing to restore The Don to its former
glory — Milne Hollow became his final
target.
Of all the property along the Don, this
was the area which Charles most wanted
to see purchased and conserved for the
use of all Toronto and area citizens. His
dream was that Milne Hollow would one
day become the "trail head" or entrance
to the Charles Sauriol Conservation
Reserve, an "urban wilderness" that
stretches from Lawrence Avenue East to
the forks of the Don River — a hike of
some three hours through forests of very
old trees and fields of wildflowers.
Before he died last December, Charles
Sauriol made a commitment to The
Conservation Foundation of Greater
Toronto to raise $250,000 of the Milne
r Hollow purchase price from the private
sector, both businesses and individuals.
In a short period, this Pied Piper of The
Don was able to secure about $50,000 of
his pledge.
The Conservation Foundation of
Greater Toronto is now committed to
seeing that Charles' dream is realized
and that the remaining $200,000 is
raised. Donations can be sent to The
Conservation Foundation of Greater
Toronto, 5 Shoreham Dfive,
Downsview, MON 1S4. Oftial receipts
q�.....,, _;. will be issued,

Ever wonder how
automotive manufactur-
ers come up with the dif-
ferent colours for this
year's cars? Bet you
would never guess the
fashion industry.
Engineers say that,
when purchasing a vehi-
cle, more than 505c of
the decision is based on
the colour.
Numerous colour Telly Macl
design engineers search, autof
sometimes four years in
advance, for new colours they can offer manu-
facturers. PPG Industries is one of three OEMs
(Original Equipment Manufacturers) that pro-
vide paint, not only to the domestic auto makers,
but also foreign manufacturers. The other two
companies are BASF and DuPONT.
These paint companies mix up approximately
70 different colours to offer auto manufacturers
each year, in a colour show that goes on the road
to various automotive engineering groups for
their approval.
Most manufac-
turers have 18 to 20
colours in use dur-
ing the model year.
When a new colour
appeals to a new
vehicle launch, they
add it. Normolly,
three to ten existing
colours get replaced
each year, black and
white are standards
inald-Cadieux that never leave the
ive reporter list.
Picking a colour,
Jan Harrington of Troy. Michigan says, is all
marketing. They look at the target market of the
vehicles. Age influences colour more than sex
does. The size of the vehicle also influences the
colour. For example, bright colours fit smaller
cars, while large luxury vehicles will have tradi-
tional white, silver or gray. A car targeted at
females or young drivers will use vibrant
colours.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent on
colour development each year. When a colour i;
chosen, it is tested in Florida and Arizona for a
year, to see if it can withstand the sun. PPG also
tests various colours through the Pace Car
Program. At IndyCar events, many vibrant
coloured, high performance vehicles drive
around the track. This marketing program acts as
a market colour test: if a paint colour gets a lot of
compliments, the manufacturer may pick that
colour for its new line-up. Other paint manufac-
turers conduct focus groups, asking questions
regarding different paint colours and schemes.
Much to everyone's surprise, Honda intro-
duced fight green to the marketplace in 1990.
Normally, a colour is only good for two to three
years, but light green has been getting stronger
and stronger each year. Now, almost every manu-
facturer has light green in the line-up. A recent
survey of North American vehicles found the
family of greens to be among the top sellers for

stronger and stronger each
year. Now, almost every
manufacturer has light green
in the line-up. A recent sur-
vey of North American vehi-
cles found the family of
greens to be among the top
sellers for mid-size and
sport/utility vehicles. Red
was the number one seller for
compacts, sports cars and
trucks; while white scored
highest for luxury and full-
size vehicles.
A vehicle endures many
applications to keep the paint
:from peeling, fading or chip-
ping. At the stamping plant,
body parts are zinc coated or
two-sided galvanized, to pro-
vide extra protection against
corrosion. The body parts
then get phosphate cleaned
and the pieces are welded
together, to shape the vehi-
cle's body (also called its
tub).
The tub is immersed into a
large tank of primer, giving
the body a negative charge.
GM calls this primer ELPO
(Electric Deposition of
Olymers); Ford calls the
rI
process E coating; Chrysler
calls it Electric Coating.
To prevent chipping, the
body receives a primer ser-
vice. Because paint carries
positive atoms, and the
primer gives the body a neg-
ative charge, the paint will
adhere to the Name.
Primer for passenger cars
is colour specific, meaning
there are ten colours of
primer and ten matching
paint colours. Trucks differ,
using one of four primer
colours.
The base coat is then ap-
plied. At GM, a water base
system is used, in which the
body goes through an oven
where it boils off any excess
water. A dry coat is applied,
followed by the clear coat,
creating the shiny look. The
vehicle is baked for 30 min-
utes at 250 to 280 degrees.
If you're involved in an
accident, the body shop will
be able to match the paint to
a "T," because paint compa-
nies supply the colour formu-
las for perfect matching. PPG
has a computer system that
picks up the colour and prints

Is your car
asthmatic?
For every litre of gasoline
that your car bums, it needs
tip to 9,000 litres of air. And
if your air filter gets clogged
with dust and grit, your car
will begin to get that asth-
matic feeling -- it just cant
get enough air.
Air filters are housed in a
box, usually at the front of
the engine, which you can
open by unfastening a few
screws or wing nuts. Pull out
the air filter and hold it up to
the fight.
An engine that bums "too
rich" (Le., too much fuel and
too little air) will develop
some very expansive prod`
lems down the road.
7bere are other filters in
your engine, too. Mm is a
gas filter to catch any impuri-
ties in the fuel or any mxU-
mentation that develop:.
71we's a PCV or Positive
Crankcase Ventilation filter
which keeps dirt out of the
crankcase. And there's the oil
filter to keep your oil clean.
All need regular mainte-
nance.
.With regular maintenance,
your car will run better,
smoother and longer: And
what you spt:nd on filtem
you'll save in gasoline.
