3 Hough ready to take Frenchman's Bay into the future
by Glenn Hendry
His court battles are over, his
personal headache has sailed off
into the sunset. Is Harold Hough,
the president of Pickering Harbor
Company (PHC), finally ready to
deal with the future of
Frenchman's Bay?
You bet.
PHC, the holders of a Queen's
Charter (1843) that grants exclu-
sive rights to water under the bay,
from Liverpool Road to the
west channel and 1,000 feet out
into the lake, won a 13 year court
battle with the Town of Pickering
last year. At issue was the validi-
ty of the charter, which was pur-
chased by Harold's father
Leonard in 1962.
The out of court settlement
ended the town's challenge to the
charter and provided assurances
that the company would abide by
town planning guidelines in
future developments.
The challenge, begun when
Cliff Stephenson was running the
company, was really pointless
anyway, Hough insists.
"Cliff seemed to think, and he
based this on a legal opinion, that
we didn't need building permits
or anything because of the char-
ter. But it was simply an academ-
ic discussion because we didn't
do anything. The town got them-
selves into a tailspin for nothing."
With the settlement, the histo-
ry of Frenchman's Bay - a thriv-
ing port last century - is no longer
in the past, Hough says. The
future is now, and he's already
working with the town on several
developments around the harbor.
It's high time, too, he adds,
noting the harbor is beginning to
look like a dump.
"I would like to see develop-
ment done around the bay that is
environmentally responsible but
will clean the prate up. It looks
like a backwater," he says.
The bay's image, at least in the
eyes of Hough and several of his
neighbors, was improved earlier
this summer when the Primrose,
a barge moored at Part Pickering
Marina, was towed out of the
bay. A sore point to Hough, the
barge was owned by Jim
McKean, himself a long-standing
M= of irritation to the PHC
presiklent. McKeaWs marina was
declared bankrupt last year, part-
ly for faihue to pay Hough's
$24,000 amtual rant.
McKean's fine tid2l Wwd-
ties came to a head when Hough
and the town made their sario-
mens, clearing the way for PHCs
uncontested ownership of the
bay. 7 . I
Hough, however, believes the
court battle was much ado about
nothing.
"A privately -owned harbor
like Frenchman's Bay is not
unique," he says, citing the pats
Df Newcastle and Darlirkgton as
examples. "All harbors were at at
one time privately owned. It was
still quite common at the turn of
the century."
It was actually prior to the turn
of the century when Frenchman's
Bay was in its glory as a port.
however. In the mid -1800s, when
the charter
was awarded -,
to the
Pickering
Harbor and a
Road Joint
S t o c k
Company, is
there were at
least four
enterprises in
the bay plying
the ex
P"a
trade in lumber, coal, grain (espe-
cially barley) and, later, ice.
In 1853 ownership of the char-
ter passed on to the Pickering
Harbor Company. Within three
years, helped by the opening of
the Grand Trunk rail line, the
company had a virtual monopoly
on harbor business.
But monopoly or not, the rail-
way sealed the coffin on the bay
as a viable port and the harbor
remained unused until PHC (and
the charter) fell into the hands of
Dr. William McGill and his son-
in-law, Joseph McClellan. The
pair, with the help of local
ratepayers, dredged the bay to
make it again suitable for a har-
bor.
Eventually the company was
purchased by John Regan, who,
in 1961, put the property back on
the block. He listed the property

agent Harry
Bongers, who

said no thanks.
"The town
fathers of the
time turned
them down: they had no intention
of buying the charter," Hough
notes with a grin.
(It should be noted that the
validity of the charter was always
in question: buying the charter
was a local joke, akin to buying
the Brooklyn Bridge or Florida
swampland.)
Bongers, following his clients'
wishes to put the bay in the pub-
lic domain, also took the proper-
ty to Queen's Park and Ottawa,
but was turned down flat
"It was on pure spec that he
knew my father bought and sold
real estate," Hough, 20 at the
time, remembers. "He laid the
deal out and my father bought it."
TWO decades later, Pickering
mounted its court challenge.
"It seems sour grapes now. An
entrepreneur with vision took a
gamble," Hough notes. "But they
had their chance."
The purchase hasn't exactly
made Hough rich : there are, in
fact, 35 shareholders, with
Hough holding 15 per cent of the
stock.
If oil were discovered at the
bottom of the bay - an unlikely
event, Hough admits - PHC
would have exclusive rights to
exploit the resource. But the
company does generate revenue
from other bay users, such as pri-
vate landowners with docks and
Other marinas, who have to pay
an annual rent.
"We're not exactly million-
aires. As they say, it's a living,"
Hough notes.
Now, with peace in the bay,
Hough is confident of the
future.
"Frenchman's Bay has more
potential than any waterfront
from Trenton to Burlington." he
says proudly. "We're going to
redevelop our holdings to what-
ever extent we're allowed to do
it."

Mayor'confesses partial
knowledge of loss
*From eonw
that announcing the loss on the
eve of an election would "taint"
all incumbent councillors
(including his mayoralty rivals
Kip Van Kempen and Eileen
Higdon). Publicizing the news
after the election, he added,
would only "burden" the new
councillors.
No one currently on council
was aware of the investment
loss, although one councillor
says town manager Tim
Sheffield claims he did inform
the members, a claim denied by
councillors.
But at least two of the "write
downs" - a total of $782,000 -
would have been included in
the 1994 year-end statement.
Councillors had the opportunity
to see that document last spring.
Van Kempen and another
former councillor, Doug
Wellman, also denied knowl-
edge of the loss. Higdon said
she suspected a problem
because she knew that
Confederation Life was part of
the town's investment portfolio.
Van Kempen, meanwhile,
said Arthurs' reasoning for not
sharing the bad news with
-ouncil is "nonsense."
"Of course we have a right to
know. It's totally irresponsible
not to tell council. He did it to
save his own skin at the elec-
tion," Van Kempen said. "It's
outrageous. And this is from the
chairman of Durham Region's
finance committee."
Arthurs, in confessing to
know of at least a portion of
Pickering's Confederation Life
loss, took some of the heat off
Sheffield, who will still have a
black cloud of controversy
hanging over his head when he
leaves Pickering (to take a sim-
ilar post in North Bay) at the
end of the month.
Sheffield, for his part, chose
not to shed any more light on
the subject with a terse "no
comment". He did, however,
speak to a Toronto newspaper,
stating that he did inform
Arthurs about the loss.
Arthurs also deflected criti-
cisms away from treasurer Jim
Walls, who was responsible for
the investment.
"Was it a bad investment? No
one saw it coming. No one
expected Confederation Life -
like Prudential, a piece of the
rock - to collapse," he
explained. "It wasn't a bad
investment decision. It was an
investment that went bad"
Arthurs did lay some criti-
cism at the feet of Deloitte
Touche, the former auditors. It
was during a financial review
that Hurren, Flett, Sinclair - the
current town auditing firm -
identified for councillors the
investment loss.
"In retrospect, I wish
(Deloitte Touche) had come
forward. "
The company has not
returned phone calls.
Regional councillor Maurice
Brenner, who chaired the audit
committee that discovered the
loss, said now is not the time to
point fingers but the time to
take "corrective measures" to
ensure this doesn't happen
again.
"It's easy to say, we do not
.know. We know now and we
know what the weaknesses
are."
But Van Kempen says the
buck has to stop somewhere,
noting the obvious candidate is
Arthurs for admitting to know-
ing about the write-offs and
withholding the information.
"At the end of the day, " he
asked, "who's in charge here?"

Editorial Opinion
Looking for answers
In a season when he would surely like to be basking, worry -free, in
the sun at his cottage, it's probably not much more than Wayne Arthurs'
ears will be burning this summer. Being linked to cover-up can be
embarrassing. And when millions of taxpayer dollars are involved, that
can be worrisome indeed.
What may have started out as simply a bad decision b invest in a
drowning insurance company could have been easily explained away.
But to bide the facts from council and taxpayers because an election
was forthcoming, and then to fudge on the details later, when the issue
became imown, has done nothing to improve the image of an official
with an already unsatisfactory performance record
When questioned about his knowledge of the loss in the Confed
investment, the mayor admitted to knowing about a portion of the
amount -written -down". But rumours persist of a memo, sent to him
two months before the election, advising him of the full amount.
Outgoing sown manager, Tim Sbeffield, now on his way to North Bay,
has been quoted in the daily papers as having told the mayor of the total
loss. And this is not the only issue of loss that the mayor has attempted
to hide.
Rrst, criticism from experts and auditors on his leadership abilities
and now questions regarding his honesty. Yes, this has been some
summer for Anhuns.
And now we have those pesky community groups asking even more
questions. And being unusually diplomatic about it too in requesting an
audience. Now this is something for any mayor and his council to
worry about: They are getting together — and they are being polite.
But the mayor has not been alone in wishing avoidance of public
scrutiny of town affairs. In -camera meetings, deals rushed -through,
low staff morale and high-level stiff resignations indicate clearly that
the mess continues, even following reports insisting on immediate
change.
Councilor Maurice Brenner, for one, has continued in nil at town
suf& poly ung employees while they try b do their jobs
in in administration which is so confused and disorganized dot its
abilities have been called b quteahoa by e:pem the media, aced aow,

Some people, sash as tt gdw letter -writer Dan Young, ate calling for
the mayor's resipli iom. Over -traction? In recalling the Watergate
Scandal in the U.S., we are reminded that a president was vinuffy
forced out of office when the public lost faith in his ability to be honea<.
While wiretapping was illegal, h was act the deed itself which shook

YOU DON`T WANT
TO MISS OUT!
"The Horseshoe Guy', los feeling lucky
Clayton Trumble is prepared for big battle
Nether it's at
7 o'clock in
the morning
or when the sun is setting,
he can usually be seen out
at the pits tossing horse-
shoes.
4t 80 years -old,
Clayton Trumble has
earned the name "The
Horseshoe Guy". Never
wanting to slowly rise up
the ranks, Trumble has
always competed at the
highest level and will
continue to do so.
"I started at the top
because that's the way I
am," admits the Pickering
resident. "If I do
something, I do it right."
Not wanting to compete
at a lower level, Trumble
wants to battle with the
highest competition; even
if' it means he gets
defeated. While everyone
else his age is throwing
horseshoes at 30 feet,
Trumble persists in
tossing at 40 feet.
"I'm too proud to play
at 30 feet," says Trumble.
"It's just a matter of
challenge and pride. 1 play
better when I'm
challenged."
He's won numerous
trophies and ribbons
during his years, defeated
Canadian champions and
travelled to many cities
and towns to play the
sport he loves. A member
of the South Pickering
Seniors' Club #753 where
he also runs the snooker
matches and acts as host
for the club, Trumble has
been a volunteer with the
club for many years and
remains active with the
seniors group.
He didn't pick up the
game of horseshoes until
after his retirement from
CN Rail in the '60s.
"When I was playing, I
was beating Canadian
champions," recalls
Trumble. "It amazed them
when they saw the way I
played.
"I fascinated myself.
But when I started, it was
just for something to do. I
feel very fortunate to be
active at the age I am."
He never played any
competitive sports while
growing up, but believes
he would have been
successful if he had.
When he decided to pick
up a sport during his
retirement years,
horseshoes seemed to
come natural to him.
"It could've been
anything," says Trumble
of his choice of sports. "I
think I would've been
good at any sport."
But the sport he
happens to be good at is
horseshoes. On September
7, Trumble will travel
once again to the Ontario
Horseshoe Championships
where he'll play both
singles and doubles.
"I don't expect to win
in doubles," says
Trumble. "I have a lot of
competition in singles. If
you have one bad game,
it'll be all over. But if I
play like I have been
playing, it'll be hard to
beat me."
Not much has gotten the
better of Trumble over the
years. Having fought in
the War where he served
in the army for six years,
coming out of a broken
home, and now, battling
cancer, the Pickering
resident has defied the
odds.
Told two years ago that
cancer would get the
better of him, Trumble is
winning that battle. But
now it has spread to his
liver and doctors have told
him once again that his
battle with the disease
may be a lost cause. But
Clayton Tnimble won't sit
down and rest.
"Maybe I'll fool them
all," says Trumble.
After all, horseshoes are
supposed to be a lucky
charm.

It's ataste of the Maritimes
In its second year, the
Downhome Festival, featuring
a taste of the Maritimes, will be
held on Sunday. August 18, at
Greenwood Conservation Area.
It's a full day of good music,
good food and good people.
You may not see the fishing
boats, lobster men, farmers or
smell the ocean; but the lobster
will be plentiful and the good,
old, down -east foot stomping
music will sweep you back to
the Maritimes.
With over 800,000 former
East Coasters residing in
Southern Ontario, the taste of
the maritimes theme had an
overwhelming response in
1995. "Judging by the success
of last year's Downhome
Festival, we are expecting a
tremendous response for
1996," says Mark Hillis,

ments in braking system
design, including anti-lock
brakes, this vital safety system
is among the most neglected on
our motor vehicles and a lead-
ing mechanical cause of acci-
dents.
The chain of events that
occurs in your car's braking
system is as strong as its weak-
est link. A malfunction of any
part of the system can cause
erratic brakes or complete fail-
ure.
Here's what happens when
you apply the brake pedal:
The pressure of your foot
against the pedal is transferred
to the hydraulic master cylin-
der, where pressurized fluid is
fed to hydraulic cylinders at the
four wheels.
On disc brakes, the caliper
causes friction pads to squeeze
On rear wheel drum brakes,
a wheel cylinder receives the
pressure and forties the brake
shoes against the rotating
drums.
Some vehicles have disc
brakes or drum brakes on all
four wheels; most have a com-
bination of disc on front. drum
on rear. In every case, it's fric-
tion that stops the vehicle.
Motion energy is convened to
heat, which is dissipated by air
cooling the rotors and drums.
Simple as the process may
sound, it involves a complex
system of parts that must func-
tion in concen. Friction and
heat. combined with exposure
to the elements and road conta-
mination, lead to wear and
deterioration of the braking
system. Periodic inspection and
service is essential.

Good sleep requiresgood habits
by Stephanie A.C. SmithI
F re an stresses that exist
in daily life can result in
numerous effects on sleep
quality and quantity. The key
to a good night's sleep is
dependent on many factors.
Here are just a few
recommendations to follow
which will assist in
maintaining good sleep habits.
I. Keep a regular sleep/wake
schedule: This means going to
bed and getting up at the same
time every day, and not only
through the week but on
weekends as well. Shiftwork
and jetlag can also further
contribute to irregular
sleep/wake schedules. The
body is governed by a
circadian rhythm which acts as
an internal clock. Disruption of
this rhythm can result in the
body being out of synch with
its environment; difficulties
falling to sleep and staying
asleep may persist.
2. Allow yourself sufficient
time to sleep: The average

during holiday seasons.
B e
Poor air quality can
aggravate chronic lung and
heart disease, and especially
asthma. When exposed to
air pollution, sensitive
individuals may experience
symptoms such as
coughing, wheezing, and
shortness of breath. Even
healthy adults should take
care not to over -exert
themselves during these
periods. The Lung
Association offers these tips
during high air pollution
days.
avoided. The amount of sleep
required varies between
individuals.
3. Bright light in the
morning: One of the strongest
environmental cues influencing
the circadian rhythm is bright
light. This can have a
significant affect on the level
of alertness during the day.
4. Reduce intake or abstain
from food and drink containing
caffeine: Coffee, tea, cola, and
chocolate all contain caffeine
and should be avoided,
particularly before bedtime.
Excessive consumption during
the day can reduce sleep
efficiency or increase sleep
disruptions, often without your
being aware of it.
5. Use the bedroom for
sleep; Avoid associating the
sleeping area with other
activities, such as watching
TV, exercising, or eating. The
bedroom environment should
be comfortable, with minimal
avoided after 6 as this will
produce the reverse effect.
7. Reduce consumption or
abstain from alcohol:
Excessive alcohol intake
during the day or alcohol
before bedtime can produce
disruptions from sleep and
delay the onset of REM sleep,
the equivalent of dreaming.
The result is difficulty getting
out of bed in the morning.
Alcohol consumption before
bed can also aggravate snoring.
8. Be aware of medications:
Numerous medications can
affect sleep quality and
daytime alertness. Consult a
pharmacist or physician on
possible side effects of
medications. Sleep aids are
somewhat controversial and
should only be taken upon
consultation with a physician.
9. Be aware that stress can
dramatically affect sleep:
Stress is a common contributor
to sleep difficulties, especially

*Avoid over-exertion, and
stay rested.
*Avoid extended periods

divorce, can severely disrupt
sleep but this should resolve
itself over time, even though it
may take awhile before sleep
patterns return to normal.
Following these
recommendations may help to
improve your sleep quality and
likewise your daytime
alertness and functioning.
Other health problems can also
affect sleep; if sleep disruption
persists, you should see your
doctor. Excessive daytime
sleepiness, frequent nocturnal
awakenings, and/ or loud
snoring may all be indications
of an underlying sleep
disorder. Consultation with
your family doctor may
indicate the need for further
investigation and a sleep study
may be required. An overnight
test, done in a sleep lab, can
assess the quality of a person's
sleep and monitor for
numerous disorders which may
disrupt sleep.
