Durham courts trouble
Police say urgency
for new courthouse
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––The need for a
new Durham courthouse is reaching
a point of urgency, says Police
Chief Kevin McAlpine, who sug-
gested the Region’s old facilities are
costing taxpayers money and hin-
dering police services.
“We need that courthouse and
we need it now,” the chief said fol-
lowing a presentation to regional
council Wednesday.
The growth in Durham com-
bined with the increasing number of
charges being taken to court have
resulted in more prisoners in the
system each day and there is not
enough room to house them, said
Chief McAlpine.
“Certainly an issue facing us
every single day is the court issue.
Yesterday we started with 67 pris-
oners to go into holding cells made
for about 40 prisoners and we added
a few more by the end of the day.”
The chief said the force is “frus-
trated by very outdated facilities.
Every day the Durham courthouse
is not there, it costs us money on se-
curity and transport of prisoners.
Last year we had to bring patrol of-
ficers into the courtroom 54 days.
That’s 54 days those officers
should’ve been out on the road.”
According to the chief, in 1993,
Durham Regional Police made
6,300 prisoner transport trips. That
number has risen to over 15,000.
Currently, some prisoners are
held at Whitby Jail until they are
due in court, instead of being trans-
ported to the courthouses at the be-
ginning of the day. That stop-gap
measure will no longer be an option
when the Whitby Jail, expected to
close before Christmas, has been
shut down, he said.
PICKERING — The an-
nual Terry Fox run is this
Sunday, Sept. 15.
Registration is at 9 a.m. at
the Pickering Recreation
Complex on Valley Farm
Road.
The run ends by 2 p.m.
Participants can run, walk,
inline skate or bike a five- or
10-kilometre route through
the heart of the city.
Organizers say the celebri-
ty barbecue held in advance
of the run raised $14,000 for
cancer research and they are
hoping for even more the day
of the run.

tion contact Sandra Arm-
strong at 416-520-3640.

Business
wants
conformity
But residents say
operation a hazard
BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE
Staff Writer
PICKERING — Balsam Road
residents and a local auto recycler
are locked in a verbal battle over
whether the long-established busi-
ness should be allowed to continue
operating in the rural community.
The auto-wrecking yard has
been around since 1952 and pre-
dates the City’s zoning bylaws.
The current owner, Barry Kauf-
man, purchased the north Pickering
property and business, now known
as Number 7 Auto Recyclers, in
1989. Number 7 is operating under
what is known as a legal non-con-
forming use, meaning the auto recy-
cling business is legal, but doesn’t
conform to existing zoning bylaws.
In 1999 Mr. Kaufman decided to
make some improvements to the
property. However, as a legal non-
conforming business, Number 7
was unable to replace existing
buildings on the site with the state-

of-the-art auto facility he envi-
sioned. Instead, Mr. Kaufman had
to expand the existing building to
maintain the legal non-conforming
status. He went
ahead, promising to
construct a “breeze-
way” between the
new and old build-
ings.
The new facility
was constructed
with an airplane
hangar-sized indoor
parts and engine
storage area and
auto dismantling
bay, which he said is
equipped with envi-
ronmentally friendly
equipment. Now
that the new build-
ing is up and run-
ning Mr. Kaufman
said he wants to skip
building the
“breezeway” and
tear down the old
building all together.
He has applied to
rezone the property
to legitimize the ex-
isting business, but
area neighbours op-
pose the plan.
Margaret
Williamson lives
next door to Number
7 on Balsam and
told City councillors
this week the busi-
ness is a “recipe for
disaster” and a
“dirty business” op-
erating in what
should be a rural res-
idential neighbour-
hood.
“My family’s
dream is turning into
a nightmare,” she
said. “They have
trucks coming in at
all hours of the
night, all the dust
and the noise,
they’re storing piles
of tires out there.
What if the pile of
tires catches fire?”
she asked.
Ms. Williamson
and a group of resi-
dents made their
case to the City’s
planning committee,
charging the busi-
ness is a hazard to
the local environ-
ment and demand-
ing Pickering coun-
cillors do something
about it.
Ward 1 Regional
Councillor Maurice
Brenner suggested
council only ap-
prove the rezoning if
Number 7 com-
pletes an environ-
mental assessment
of the land.
Director of plan-
ning Neil Carroll
warned councillors
Mr. Kaufman could
just simply back out
and abandon the re-
zoning application
with an assessment
condition, build the breezeway and
continue to operate as a legal non-
conforming use.
However, in an interview Tues-
day, Mr. Kaufman said he’s already
done the environmental reports. In
fact, he said his financial institution
asked for reports before lending him
the money to build. He said the re-
ports, which were completed in
June 2000, showed no problems.
“This is my land, it’s not land I
rent. I’m going to give it to my sons
one day. Do I want to make it dirty?
No I don’t.
“If I rented maybe I wouldn’t
care, but this is mine,” he said.
“We’re not dumping or burying any-
thing... this business has been here
since 1952 and it’s not going any-
where.”
The planning committee referred
the matter back to staff to address
the concerns of residents.

DURHAM ––Two sepa-
rate studies found motorists
are more likely to be in a
crash if they are talking on
their cellphone, but re-
searchers differ widely on the
magnitude of the risk, an in-
quest has heard.
The coroner’s inquest is
examining the role of cell-
phones in motor vehicle col-
lisions after Ajax resident
Richard Schewe, 31, and his
two-year-old daughter,
Mikaela, were killed when
their pickup truck collided
with a train at a level crossing
in Pickering.
Court heard Mr. Schewe,
who was northbound on
Brock Road, did not stop in
time despite bells and flash-
ing signals and crashed
through the crossing gate.
The truck skidded onto the
CP Railway tracks south of
Taunton Road and was struck
by the westbound freight
train.
Police investigation found
Mr. Schewe was talking on
his cellphone to his ex-wife
at the time of the crash May
7, 2001.
During the inquest, which
began Monday, jurors heard
details of two studies show-
ing drivers are more at risk of
crashing when talking on
phones.
The author of one study
found the risk is great, while
the other determined the dan-
ger is minimal compared
with other driver distractions.
Dr. Donald Redelmeier, a
University of Toronto med-
ical professor and internist at
Sunnybrook Health Science
Centre, testified his research
showed drivers are four times
as likely to crash if talking
continuously on the phone.
Dr. Redelmeier was called
as a witness by Crown attor-
ney Ken Polley, who is coun-
sel for presiding coroner Dr.
James Edwards.
Dr. Claire Laberge-
Nadeau, a University of
Montreal professor, was
called as a witness by the
Canadian Wireless Telecom-
munications Association,
which strongly opposes leg-
islation regulating cellphone
use in cars and has standing
in the inquest.
Court was told Dr.
Laberge-Nadeau’s study con-
cluded people using cell-
phones while driving are 38
per cent more likely to have
an accident, far less than the
400 per cent suggested by Dr.
Redelmeier.
The doctors relied on dif-
ferent methodology in their
studies, court heard.
Dr. Laberge-Nadeau said
there are “multiple factors” in
most crashes and there isn’t
enough data to support legis-
lation banning or restricting
cellphones.
Closing counsel submis-
sions at the inquest were ex-
pected to begin Friday.

DURHAM —
Durham’s Catholic school
board, at its Sept. 9 board
meeting, released its bud-
get schedule for the up-
coming year.
The Durham Catholic
District School Board will
start the process six to
eight weeks earlier and
aims to approve the
2003/04 budget at the June
9 board meeting.
Beginning in roughly
three weeks, principals
will be asked to make
school maintenance and re-
pair requests, due Nov. 15.
The first budget draft is
to come before trustees
April 28.
In his report to the
board, business superinten-
dent David Visser said,
“the schedule presented is
dependent upon the timely
receipt of necessary finan-
cial information from the
Ministry of Education.”
Mr. Visser noted ap-
proximately $4.5 million
was required from the
working funds reserve to
balance the current year’s
budget.
“This option will not be
available to the board
much longer as reserve
funds are finite,” he states.
“Eventually, either an
increase in funding and/or
a decrease in expenditures
must occur if the annual
shortfall is to be over-
come.”

My name is Kurt Johansen. I’m Project Manager for the
Environmental Assessment of Ontario Power Generation’s
proposal to construct and operate a Used Fuel Dry
Storage Facility at Darlington Nuclear and I would like to
invite you to attend one of our upcoming information
Open Houses.
Responsible Management
As part of our nuclear waste management program, used fuel
bundles have been stored safely in water-filled bays at
Darlington Nuclear for more than ten years.
OPG is proposing to transfer these bundles
into large concrete and steel storage containers
and then place them in on-site storage buildings
specifically built for this purpose. Similar technology has been
approved and is in use at OPG’s Pickering Nuclear and is
approved and under construction at OPG’s waste management
facility in Bruce County.
Participate in an Open House
As part of the planning and approval process for this proposed facility, we are
conducting an environmental assessment that includes ongoing public consultation. In
April 2002, we held our second round of Open Houses to share preliminary findings
of our EA studies with the community. Now, we are continuing with a third round to
present the results of the environmental assessment and provide a forum for public
comment. Your comments will be included in the EA Study Report to be submitted
to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, the authority responsible for this EA
under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act.
Open houses will be held at the locations and on the dates listed below. OPG staff and expert
consultants will be available to answer your questions. We look forward to seeing you there.

Almost time to start crunching budget numbers
DAVID VISSER
Budget work looms.
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM –– The number-one threat to
public safety is not violent crime, but some-
thing far more commonplace, says Durham
Regional Police Chief Kevin McAlpine.
“In terms of bad news, the area where the
majority of our citizens get hurt is traffic acci-
dents,” said the chief during his quarterly up-
date to regional council Wednesday. “Our im-
pact on fatalities and collisions is not where
we would like it to be,” added the chief, who
says the force is targeting road safety as a pri-
ority.
While criminal driving offences in the first
half of 2002 were down by 4.3 per cent to 985
compared with the first six months in 2001,
that “has more to do with the level of police
availability out on the road than it has to do
with what’s happening on the roads,” the chief
said.
And although criminal driving offence
charges are down, more of us have been on
the receiving end of speeding tickets.
Police Services Board Chairman and Os-
hawa Councillor Bob Boychyn noted a new
traffic unit is on the road and the officers are
“out in great force, nabbing speeders on a reg-
ular basis. Sooner or later they’ll reach your
municipality, your neighbourhood, so be care-
ful.” He added, “That’s not a threat, that’s a
fact.”
Aside from traffic management, Durham
police are also facing challenges related to the
region’s significant and fast-paced growth, the
chief said.
“Our calls for service - our fundamental
workload - how we count how busy we are,
are up 8.2 per cent,” Chief McAlpine said.
The force is working on a five-year plan,
noted Coun. Boychyn, who said the goal is to
have “a more proactive, more stable delivery
of police services.” Four key areas have been
identified to be addressed within that plan: re-
gional growth, advancement of technological
equipment, crime trends and police employee
requirements. The chief noted in the first six
months of 2002, compared to the same time
period in 2001:
• Crimes of violence were down 3.9 per
cent but there were still 2,173 victims;
• Property crimes were up 6.7 per cent to
7,632 incidents;
• Total criminal incidents were up 4.9 per
cent to 18,511;
• Provincial offence tickets were up 25.9
per cent to 79,783 issued;
• Drug incidents were up 70.8 per cent to
801. Since November 2001, the Durham Re-
gional Police have closed down 104 drug
homes and seized more than $24.5 million in
marijuana and growing paraphernalia.
Despite the crime statistics, Coun. Boy-
chyn noted Durham residents should feel con-
fident in their police services and secure with-
in their communities.

Now is the time for all Canadians
to come to the aid of our health-care
system. With a federal report coming
soon from former Saskatchewan pre-
mier Roy Romanow, it’s time to de-
fend the basic principles of our sys-
tem. Perhaps it’s time to apply a lit-
tle heat to our political representa-
tives.
Canadians say health care is our
most important issue. But a sneaky
campaign to undermine universal
medicare continues. Those who want
to privatize it know how we feel so
they don’t make a frontal attack. In-
stead, they insidiously undermine
the system by compromising the
fundamental values Canadians cher-
ish. A two-tier system is their goal,
even if creeping privatization in is
the way they have to do it.
So it’s time to remind our govern-
ments we have already spoken on the
issue. Obviously the federal govern-
ment must meet its responsibilities.
To talk tough to the provinces, Ot-
tawa must increase its contribution.
The federal government isn’t seri-
ously defending public health care as
long as it downloads so much of the
bill. On the other hand, the provinces
would be more persuasive if some
weren’t acting so obviously on be-
half of the profit-motivated compa-
nies that want a bigger piece of the
health-care pie. Their view is that it’s
so much better if they can take over
a service, make a profit, and still
send the bill to the taxpayer (OHIP).
The key principles of the Canada
Health Act must be preserved. Cana-
dians have spoken. We want a sys-
tem that is universal, portable, pub-
licly run, comprehensive and acces-
sible.
But, we had better raise our voic-
es. Calls, faxes, e-mails, and letters
to our MPs and MPPs are needed as
are letters to the editor — whatever
we can do to make it clear we care
about our health-care system. We
don’t want one based on profit.
We don’t want one that permits
the wealthy to go the head of the line
while others line up for second-class
treatment. We want health care avail-
able to all. In fact, we want our pub-
licly managed and funded system to
cover home care and drugs too.
If this is how you feel dear read-
er, it’s time to pick up the phone or
write that letter. Let’s not let the
politicians off the hook. Let’s put
their feet to the fire right now so they
won’t be tempted to give our health-
care system to those greedy friends
of theirs. You know, the ones who
have been pressuring them to priva-
tize all our publicly built services,
from airlines to hydro power, from
railways to highways.
Now is the time to shout ouch for health care

Public being shut out
of land swap process
To the editor:
So the provincial government is going
to give north Pickering lands to developers
in exchange for land the developers owned
on the Oak Ridges Moraine.
The developers were in the middle of
Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) hearings
seeking planning permission to develop on
some moraine land when the government
decided to intervene. Why? Was it because
they knew the OMB would have ruled in
favour of the developers?
The north Pickering lands need the up-
dated integrated environmental mapping of
all groundwater, creeks and surface water
that is presently being completed. Further,
additional environmental mapping should
include research that was obtained in the
Interim Waste Authority process of the
early 1990s, as well as other environmental
studies not included in the Seaton plan of
1990.
How does the Province know what land
to swap for development if it doesn’t have
an updated, integrated comprehensive en-
vironmental mapping of rural Pickering?
David Crombie, who’s helping oversee
the swap on behalf of the Province, would
be welcome to sit on the Pickering growth
management study team. The public at
large in Pickering must become equal part-
ners in the process rather than being locked
out by the provincial government, which
continues to make deals with developers.

We paused momentarily Wednesday to remember the inno-
cent victims of the terrorist attacks in the United States one year
ago.
We prayed for them, including fellow Canadians who were in
those doomed commercial towers in Manhattan. We kept a warm
thought for the courageous passengers on Flight 95 that crashed
in Pennsylvania. We remained silent as we thought of the vic-
tims on the Pentagon crash.
Now, our thoughts must turn to our fellow citizens right here
at home.
As fall approaches, the United Way of Ajax-Pickering, which
also serves Uxbridge Township, is gearing up for its annual
fund-raising campaign to help provide needed money to the
many social services groups in our communities that serve our
neighbours, our friends, and our family members. Last year, the
local drive raised over $1.5 million, and the year before it was
$1.4 million. This year the need is just as great.
You’ll be asked to donate what you can to help feed a hungry
child, or provide a fresh start for someone who has fallen on
hard times, or bring a hot meal to elderly or ailing residents in
Ajax and Pickering.
At work, you may be asked to donate through your compa-
ny’s payroll system. If you do, ensure the money is directed back
to your local United Way.
But do give what you can.
Throughout the fall, the United Way is hosting several com-
munity-based events to help raise awareness and funding. If you
know of an event in your neighbourhood, make a point of par-
ticipating. Or, if you have some expertise in certain areas, con-
sider volunteering and sharing your knowledge to make the most
of those events.
There are dozens of social service agencies in our communi-
ties serving thousands of people. They rely on the generosity of
local residents — through the offices of the United Way — to
continue their good work. One dollar more can make the differ-
ence between maintaining a worthy public service and expand-
ing it.
Please, take a moment to reflect on our good fortune and help
spread it throughout Ajax and Pickering. Please think of that
neighbour, that friend, that family member who may have been
the beneficiary of an agency funded by the United Way. Please
dig as deeply as you can this fall.
It’s not necessarily a handout as much as it is a hand up to
those who need your help right here at home.
Give generously this fall; people are relying on you.
Please, find a Way
to give this fall

Politicians propose one large northern federal riding
Everyone north of Taunton Road, between Oshawa and Pickering, would fall into one electoral area
BY TIM FORAN
Staff Writer
DURHAM –– Some municipal
politicians are calling for the Canadian
government to create a rural riding pos-
sibly composed of all of Durham Re-
gion north of Taunton Road, between
Pickering and Oshawa.
The electoral district, which would
take in parts of every Durham munici-
pality except Clarington, would provide
a community of interest, reduce the
domination of one urban area on rural
concerns and increase the focus on Oak
Ridges Moraine issues, Scugog Mayor
Doug Moffatt recently wrote in a letter
to Durham’s municipal councils.
A federal boundary commission,
which is set up every decade to review
Canada’s electoral boundaries, recently
proposed a new riding structure for
Durham. Included in the five revised
ridings is Pickering-Durham, which
would include all of Pickering, except
an urban portion east of Frenchman’s
Bay, as well as the three north Durham
Townships of Uxbridge, Scugog and
Brock.
Both Mayor Moffatt and Uxbridge
Regional Councillor Susan Para have
expressed concern the urban part of
Pickering, representing approximately
50,000 to 60,000 residents, would dom-
inate the rural area of the riding, which
has only 48,000 residents.
In his letter, Mayor Moffatt says a
better alignment would be to combine
the urban portion of Pickering with 25
per cent of Ajax in one riding. The rest
of Ajax would then be combined with
the urban part of Whitby, he added, and
the south portion of Oshawa could be its
own riding.
“All of these ridings would be simi-
lar in the number of residents
(100,000),” Mayor Moffatt suggested.
Dan McTeague, MP for Pick-
ering-Ajax-Uxbridge, said he has
not yet formed his opinion on the
proposed Pickering-Durham rid-
ing. “At first glance, it struck me
as rather strange that you’d have
a riding extending from Lake
Ontario all the way to Lake Sim-
coe,” he said.
The commission proposing
Canada’s new federal riding
boundaries will be stopping in
Whitby Nov. 8 to hear public
comments on the Durham dis-
tricts.

The day ‘our world was changed forever’
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––Commu-
nities across Durham banded
together Wednesday to re-
member the events of a year
ago when thousands of lives
were lost and millions more
“changed forever.
“The sense of peace and
security that we had taken for
granted in Canada and the
United States was shattered,”
Durham Chairman Roger
Anderson said, in an address
to regional council and emer-
gency service personnel, in-
cluding a large contingent of
Durham Regional Police of-
ficers, in attendance for the
memorial.
The regional headquarters
service was one of several
that took place across
Durham.
Like many people may
have done on the one-year
anniversary, the chairman re-
called where he was when
the tragic events unfolded.
“On the morning of Sept.
11 last year, most of our
council happened to be here
in this room, discussing with
our MPPs issues of concern
to Durham,” he said, noting
the end of the meeting coin-
cided with the attacks on the
World Trade Center. “To-
gether, we watched the col-
lapse of the towers in stunned
disbelief. The magnitude and
meaning of this destruction
could hardly be comprehend-
ed. Questions of what might
happen next filled our
minds.”
In the weeks that fol-
lowed, every Durham resi-
dent was affected in some
way, the chairman said.
“Tasks as simple as open-
ing the mail became a
threat... we recognized the
bravery of firefighters, police
officers, paramedics and oth-
ers who perished in the res-
cue effort. For the first time
in decades, Canadian armed
forces were called to war. Se-
curity plans for every level of
government were reviewed
and strengthened. Our world
was changed forever.”

Rust Check offers a proven and time-tested automobile body
panel protectant for individuals and commercial or municipal fleets,
designed to save money and offer peace of mind.
Rust Check extends the life of your vehicle allowing you to keep it
longer, saving you thousands of dollars in new purchase and
maintenance costs. It also helps to maintain structural integrity
making your vehicle safer in the event of collision.
From its foundation in Hepworth, Ontario in 1973, Rust Check has
become one of the largest rust inhibitor associations in the world.
The Rust Check centre in Pickering is franchise owned and
operated by Alvin McMillan, and managed by Paul Bogaert.
The Rust Check formula is applied as a pressurized spray using
specialized equipment. The formula dispels moisture and treats the
metal with a corrosion-inhibiting layer to create an effective barrier
against the moisture that causes rust. The light liquid consistency of
Rust Check helps it to seep into weld seams, folds, joints and
crevices that thicker materials can miss. This protection is especially
important with today’s unitized body construction on most modern
vehicles.
With their annual application from an authorized Rust Check
dealer, all new cars and used vehicles that qualify can be warranted
forever against inner panel rust perforation (ask for details).
The new Rust Check Coat & Protect application is essentially a
thicker version of Rust Check, with good adhesion and wash
resistance, making it ideal for exposed undercarriage areas.
Ask about their all-new DRIPLESS version of the Rust Check
product with a heavier consistency.
Rust Check also offers paint finish protection using Meguiar’s
surface care products, plus Rust Check’s Liquid Bedliner and Multi-
Purpose Coating.
Call Rust Check for your appointment soon.

Sylvan Learning Centres teach students of all ages the skills that
are needed to do better in school and beyond. Their goal is to create
confident, independent students by discovering and targeting the
causes of academic frustrations. To achieve their objective, Sylvan
begins by performing a comprehensive Skills Assessment, which
allows them to identify strengths and weaknesses. They can then
create a personalized program for each student. The Sylvan
methodology also incorporates positive reinforcement and a unique
instructional method known as Mastery Learning. This process
allows the student to prove they have mastered the concepts of the
chosen program; periodic re-testing of skills ensures retention.
With a student:teacher ratio of 3:1, students attend 2-4 hours per
week and with committed caring teachers, soon find their grades and
self-esteem boosted. The Sylvan Learning Centre offers programs
ranging from kindergarten to OAC level work. Students can benefit
from various reading and writing programs, all levels of mathematics,
study skills, and more.
Sylvan Learning Centres were founded in 1979, and there is now
a network of more than 1600 supplemental and remedial learning
centres worldwide. Kristi Duncan-Ash is the owner of the Sylvan
Learning Centres in Pickering, Whitby and Aurora.
For information about how your child can improve their confidence
and grades, call Sylvan Learning Centres or visit

The Simple Alternative Funeral Centres (TSA) is responding to
the needs of those who want more choices when it comes to funeral
services without compromising the respect for the dignity of the
deceased.
The Simple Alternative Funeral Centres offers the same
services as a “traditional” funeral home, and complies with the same
regulations, and they are very reputable. However, the emphasis is
placed on allowing families to choose the products and services that
are best suited to their needs and budget.
Whether you choose to use their chapel, spacious visitation rooms,
and family centre for post-funeral gatherings, or prefer a complete
funeral service at a community church, your favourite golf club,
Legion hall, or theatre, TSA offers many options. Your arrangements
can range from simple ceremonies to more elaborate or traditional
funerals, whether you choose cremation, burial or entombment.
The Simple Alternative Funeral Centres is a sister company of
the Mount Pleasant Group of Cemeteries, and now has 3 locations
in the GTA. At the time of need, Managing Director Paul Carter and
the staff at the Pickering location can assist the bereaved with
compassion and understanding. One way TSA can help families to
alleviate undue stress while fulfilling the wishes of the deceased is by
pre-arranging a funeral in advance of the need. In a relaxed
atmosphere at your home or their office, you can review the fees, ask
questions at no obligation, and outline special requests.
If you choose to pre-pay, all funds will be invested on your behalf
and held in trust, so you pay for the future at today’s costs.
Feel free to contact The Simple Alternative Funeral Centres for
additional information.

BY KEITH GILLIGAN
Staff Writer
DURHAM —Death and taxes.
Political parties have promised to do some-
thing about the latter, but there’s nothing that
can be done about the former. It happens to
everyone and while we may not like it, at some
point in time, we’re probably going to make an
involuntary visit to a funeral director.
But, what about those who make this their
job. Why? It’s not glamorous and it’s the butt
of many a joke. As the saying goes, some-
body’s got to do it.
Often, being a funeral director is a family
thing, following in dad’s footsteps. Bill Low
has done it for 54 years, having followed his
father and grandfather.
“When I grew up I drifted into it. When
they got out of high school, my boys did. My
dad was 17 when he started,” he says.
Low and Low in Uxbridge has been a fam-
ily business for 125 years. “There aren’t many
fourth-generation businesses around. A lot (of
funeral homes) started as a family business,”
Mr. Low points out.
In the past few years, like most businesses,
“the big guys have been gobbling up” small
family-run funeral homes.
Dino Accettone, the owner of Accettone
Funeral Home in Ajax, agrees most homes are
‘generational’, with children following their
fathers, who had followed their fathers, al-
though, he didn’t.
“Most want to get into it. I was an accident.
I liked it and I stayed,” he says, adding he did-
n’t want to further explain.
Scott McEachnie and his brother Dave fol-
lowed in their father’s path at McEachnie Fu-
neral Home in Pickering Village.
“Traditionally, the business has been that
way,” Scott says.
The business aspect of funeral homes may
be changing more slowly than funerals them-
selves, according to Mr. Accettone.
“Twenty years ago it was two days of view-
ing and a service, and the funeral was in a
church,” Mr. Accettone says.
Now, many opt for a same-day service or
immediate cremation with no service, he adds.
“Take a look at the funeral your grandpar-
ents had and the funeral (you will have),” he
notes. “The population is so transient, it’s
more difficult to have a traditional funeral.”
Mr. Low agrees there’s been a big change
in funerals. When he began in the business,
they were usually held at the home of the de-
ceased, not at a chapel.
“We did the preparation work here, the em-
balming, and then went back to the house, he
says, adding for “big ones”, a church service
was held. When funerals moved out of the
house, they went to the church. Now, most are
done in the funeral home’s chapel. Low and
Low built its chapel in 1948.
Back when travel was by horse and buggy,
“you were doing the embalming in the home.
My dad and granddad did embalming in
homes,” Mr. Low says. “They had a board and
they did it in the bedroom. Thank God that’s
stopped.”
What hasn’t changed is the 24-hour nature
of the job. As Mr. Accettone says, “Mr. Death
knocks at any time. “I’m not fond of an an-
swering service. If it’s 2 a.m., I wouldn’t want
to talk to an answering service,” he adds.
Maybe the family has been “waiting at the
hospital for two or three days and they don’t
know what time it is,” he notes.
Having the funeral director answer the
phone is “refreshing. It eases their mind. It
makes it easier all around,” Mr. Accettone
states. “For the number of times it happens,
one or two times a month, you get a phone call
in the middle of the night.”
Scott McEachnie agrees with having the
funeral director answer the phone. “We are on
call. You can speak to (Dave) or I and not
speak to an answering service,” he says. “With
palliative care, when the person dies at home,
“we’re able to respond. The funeral director is
someone available 24 hours a day.”
Mr. Low notes, “Somebody is on call to see
people, especially when the police call at 4
a.m. and say ‘we need your services on re-
gional road whatever.’”
Whatever time the call comes, a funeral di-
rector will have to deal with loved ones. That
can be stressful, Mr. McEachnie points out.
“We’re only human as well and we feel for
their loss. We help them start on the road to re-
covery,” he says.” At that point, they walk out
and thank us for what we did. It can be very re-
warding.”
Mr. Accettone states, “I take that I’m help-
ing people at the worst time of life. I don’t
want to use the world exhilarating. It’s reward-
ing.”
Often, the deceased may have been ill and
death isn’t such a shock, so the funeral direc-
tor is “able to work with them”, he adds.
“People are living longer, 90 to 100 years.
You have to be able to handle grief,” Mr. Low
notes. “Like doctors, you have to be able to
stand back a bit. You’re there to help. You can’t
get too emotionally involved, although you do
a bit.”
With time and experience “you get use to
it. Some are harder to work with than others.
It’s only human nature. Most are pretty good.
Some strike out at any little thing,” he says.
“You keep your cool. When people are expe-
riencing a loss, they strike out at people they
don’t mean to. Often, they come back in to
apologize. The majority you deal with are
good.”
The stress is, of course, higher when a child
dies.
“The most difficult is a child. If they were
80 years old, you’re able to talk about the fam-
ily and about their life. It’s a celebration of life.
With a child, it’s a question of why,” Mr. Ac-
cettone notes.
If it’s a child, “it hurts us all as parents.
We’re only human too,” Mr. McEachnie adds.
Training to be a funeral director includes a
one-year course at Humber College in Etobi-
coke, followed by another year of training at a
funeral home. The French-language Collège
Boréal in Sudbury also offers training.
Mr. Low apprenticed at a funeral home in
Toronto for a year and at one in Hamilton for
another year.
School may be one year now, but for Mr.
Low it was six weeks. Students take biology,
physiology and “a whole bunch of ‘ologies’. A
little education never hurt anybody,” he says.
“The educational requirements have gone up a
lot. That’s a good thing for sure. They get a
background in a whole lot of subjects.”
But, “the real education is at the funeral
home. At school, they only teach the basics.”
While the funeral business has changed over time, one aspect remains steady –– help-
ing survivors on the path to recovery. Scott McEachnie (above) and his brother Dave
followed their father into the funeral business, continuing to operate McEachnie Fu-
neral Home in Pickering Village.
Preparing for services
DURHAM —Embalming.
The act of preserving a body.
I
t
’
s
not dinner table talk, but if you’re going
to be buried, you’ll probably be em-
balmed.
According to the Ontario Funeral
Service Association, there’s no require-
ment that a body be embalmed.
Funeral directors embalm a body, a
process that Bill Low says, “takes a
couple of hours, unless you run into a
problem that takes longer.”
Embalming involves replacing the
blood with formaldehyde and other
chemicals.

Embalming has three aspects —
disinfection, preservation and beautifi-
cation.
There’s also dressing the de-

putting them into the casket.
“It takes three hours on average.
That’s preparation and not counting

and everything else involved,”

DURHAM —Where
has the time gone?
Durham College is 35
years old this year, and
most of the 1,800 students
who graduated in June are
working or seeking a job.
Compare that to the first-
year graduating class, in the
summer of love that was
1969, when just 53 gradu-
ates tossed their caps in the
air.
Lori Connor, the col-
lege’s alumni officer, said
the college is celebrating by
holding its first Homecom-
ing Weekend, Sept. 20 and
21, offering grads a chance
to catch up with old friends
and marvel at how little DC
has grown to become one of
the most respected colleges
in the province, boasting
over 30,000 total graduates.
“We have over 5,000
full-time students now, so
our numbers are growing,
our programs are changing
and growing,” said Ms.
Connor, a 1978 graduate.
She noted that even
within the more recent his-
tory a lot has changed at the
college, what with the new
south wing and new front
entrance.
“The group that we’re
trying to attract has proba-
bly never seen the student
centre,” said Ms. Connor.
They’ll get their chance
in a few weeks. The two
days of events kick off with
an informal get-together at
E.P. Taylor’s, the pub on the
Oshawa campus. Saturday
is the big one, though, a
fun-filled day at the Os-
hawa campus that isn’t just
for grads. There’s face
painting, clowns and a
jumping castle for the
younger set — the future
grads, if you will.
“We want folks to come
back and bring the kids,”
said Ms. Connor.
Graduates and their fam-
ilies can also tour new
buildings and divisional
rooms with yearbooks and
other memorabilia to take
them back in time.
A special invitation goes
out to 1977 grads, now in
the 25-year club, on Satur-
day at 2:30 p.m.
“We’re inviting the class
of ‘77 to a special reception
for their 25th,” said Ms.
Connor, noting refresh-
ments and cake will be
served and hopefully some
original faculty members
will be on hand.
On Saturday night
there’s a dinner-dance at
the Pickering Recreation
Complex, with a live and
silent auction, and Elvis,
Madonna and other tribute
artists providing entertain-
ment. The event is in sup-
port of the college’s schol-
arship and bursary pro-
gram.

tickets, call Ms. Connor at

DURHAM ––Students rushing
to avoid the double cohort have had
a significant impact on Durham
College this year.
The latest numbers for the 2002-
03 school year show enrolment for
first-year students has jumped 14
per cent over last year to 3,199 stu-
dents and overall enrolment is up
nine per cent to 5,372 students.
“We’re seeing a significant num-
ber of students entering the college
who have fast-tracked through high
school to avoid the double cohort of
Grade 12 and Grade 13 (OAC) stu-
dents vying for post-secondary edu-
cation in 2003,” said Gary Polon-
sky, president of Durham College
and the University of Ontario Insti-
tute of Technology. “Students and
parents must be reassured that we
are well-prepared to meet the needs
of students, now and in the future.”
This year’s increase is the
biggest during the last five years
among Ministry-funded programs
in Durham College. As a result
there are 50 additional staff, includ-
ing 17 full-time faculty to support
the growth.
Currently the college is complet-
ing its largest expansion in its 35-
year history. It will increase its aca-
demic facilities by 30 per cent and
make room for an additional 2,509
students at its Oshawa campus, and
another 500 at the Skills Training
Centre Whitby campus. Durham
has received $28.75 million in
funding to expand and renovate its
campuses. The overall cost of the
project is $50.5 million, which sev-
eral corporate sponsors have helped
make possible.
The expansion includes a recent
23,000 square foot centre for inte-
grated justice studies, a new 10,000
sq. ft. integrated manufacturing
centre, 96,000 sq. ft. south wing for
the college’s new learning area in-
cluding 175 computer stations,
health science classrooms, labs, of-
fices, a William’s Coffee Pub, and
more.
In September 2003, the college
welcomes the University of Ontario
Institute of Technology’s first class.
The university will share selected
facilities with Durham College. For
more information about the univer-
sity, visit www.uoit.ca or call 1-
866-844-8648.

Woman faces charges after donation boxes taken
BY STEPHEN SHAW
Staff Writer
DURHAM –– A Courtice woman
faces a baker’s dozen charges after a
thief made off with donation boxes
from Durham Region doughnut shops.
Durham Regional Police said offi-
cers were called after a female suspect
entered a Bloor Street Tim Hortons at
about 9:15 a.m. Tuesday, snatched a
‘Kids Camp’ charity box from the
counter and ran out of the store.
The bandit was seen fleeing in a
green car, which was involved in a
minor collision at Wentworth Street
and Park Road before driving off, po-
lice said.
Witnesses provided police with a li-
cence plate number of the suspect ve-
hicle, leading officers to a Courtice ad-
dress and the subsequent arrest.
Police suspect the woman of swip-
ing charity boxes from several Tim
Hortons across the region in recent
weeks, and believe she had an accom-

Genuine Factory Outlet Is a Real Factory Outlet
Some places may
use the term ‘factory
direct’ or even ‘actory
outlet’ but they’re not a
Genuine Factory Outlet.
When you walk
through the doors of
Genuine Factory Outlet
in Ajax you will be
amazed at what you’ll
find at this hidden trea-
sure.
What you’ll discov-
er is not only the best
prices on everything for
your home decor, but you’ll
also see and hear what’s
going on in the factory locat-
ed behind the retail store.
You really have to see
to believe what’s at Genuine
Factory Outlet. There are
thousands and thousands of
items at prices far below
what you’ll pay retail.
The store has bedding,
towels, furniture, gifts, fab-
ric and more.
Just ask the “Ladies in
Red” if you need any help
or look for the “Factory
Friends” displayed above
their respective depart-
ments. These lifesize dolls
created by Linda McKendry,
who also did the layout for
this impressive store just
add to the magic at Genuine Factory
Outlet.
The store features a “Custom
Shop” where you can have unique
designs and colours for your bedding,
draperies, furniture covers and more.
Genuine Factory Outlet is located
at 458 Fairall St. at Westney Rd.

Ask those who do it. Most
people say it is a very special
kind of freedom to cruise this
continent’s most beautiful inland
water routes in their own private
family houseboat.
The 386-kilometre Trent-
Severn Waterway of Ontario, for
example, is a National Historic
Site illustrating an extraordinary
engineering feat of 36 conven-
tional locks, a boat railway, and
two of the highest hydraulic lift
locks in the world.
Pine forests and parkland sur-
round the quiet coves and sand
beaches of 20 lakes and at least a
dozen rivers. Landmarks include
Pigeon, Balsam, Sturgeon, and
Stoney lakes, as well as the com-
munities of Buckhorn, Bobcay-
geon, Rosedale and Fenelon
Falls.
Houseboat vacations com-
bine the advantages of cottage
living with the adventure of trav-
el and exploration.
You can explore a
different Ontario
town or village
every day without
the worry of ac-
commodation. Pre-
pare your own
meals on board, or
enjoy dining out at
countless restau-
rants. Stop for
shopping, lakeside
golf, swimming or
fishing anytime
you please.
Soak up the sun,
enjoy the scenery,
make new friends
at the locks, or find
a secluded wilder-
ness bay for relax-
ation.
To find out about
houseboat rentals,
go to www.ontario-
travelguides.com.
One of the better-
known outfitters on
the Trent-Severn
Waterway is Eagan Houseboat
Rentals, a family operation for
30 years. Eagan houseboats ac-
commodate from one to three
couples, or one to two small
families. Rates range from $939
midweek, to $1,339 and $1,639
per week, depending on the ves-
sel size. More information can

The spectacular colours of a New
York autumn mean more than just
pretty scenery to those in the state’s
travel and tourism industry.
The fall foliage season means big
business for New York. It’s the state’s
second-busiest travel season (after
summer), and its impact on the travel
industry has been steadily increasing.
Activity during the peak foliage
months, September and October, now
represents about 15.5 per cent of the
state’s annual total.
This so-called ‘shoulder season’
has become a popular time for week-
end getaways and week-long vaca-
tions, as well as the traditional drive
to the country to view nature’s
colourful display.

Pickering actor also
busy doing other
TV work
PICKERING —A TV
drama featuring Pickering’s
Gino Marrocco will debut on
Canadian television this week-
end.
Veteran actor Marrocco stars
in an episode of the Mary Hig-
gins Clark mystery series enti-
tled ‘Lucky Day’. The show
originally aired on the U.S. Pax
network in May, but will have its
premier on Canadian TV on
CHCH-TV in Hamilton this
Sunday at 9 p.m.
The episode, filmed in Toron-
to last February, features Mar-
rocco as ‘Bill’, an ordinary yet
lovable man whose life has been
derailed with the death of his
wife. Now widowed, Bill contin-
ues to work for a New York City
courier company, which also
employs a woman and her hus-
band who’ve befriended Bill
since the death, explained Mar-
rocco.
One day, however, the co-
worker notices something unex-
plainably different about Bill.
She tells Bill she woke up that
morning and recalled a premoni-
tion that it would be his lucky
day. Her prediction proves
prophetic as Bill later
discovers he has won
$13.5 million in the lot-
tery.
En route to a celebra-
tion with friends, howev-
er, Bill is murdered. The
rest of the story, said
Marrocco, is the
woman’s unyielding de-
sire to uncover Bill’s
killer. While the summer months
have been a relaxing time for
most, Marrocco has continued to
be busy with acting projects. He
is currently putting the finishing
touches on two such endeavours:
one starring Harvey Keitel and
another featuring country and
western singer turned actor Billy
Ray Cyrus.
He’s also appeared in an
episode of ‘Queer as Folk’ and
has also worked in a ‘Pepsi’
commercial.

IRRADIATED BEEF
International Dairy Queen is always a step
ahead in the quality of it’s food products.
You’ve seen it in the high quality of our
desserts, the very best all white meat
chicken products and of course our
delicious burgers that taste like beef and
not fat. Yes people have the misconception
that we are more expensive but if you
check the size and quality of our products
you know how erroneous that is. And of
course our salads are the toast of the fast
food industry. Another aspect of the DQ
quality is the corporation’s attention to food
preparation and packaging. What is
irradiated beef ? Irradiating beef is what
pasteurization is to milk. Dairy Queen in
partnership with the Surebeam corporation
has begun irradiating it’s beef burgers in
30 test stores. The DQ burgers are
prepared fresh, flash frozen and packaged.
Then in a matter of seconds the package of
hamburger patties passes quickly through
a concentrated beam of electrons breaking
the DNA chains of harmful bacteria that
can cause food borne illness. This is an
extra layer of safety before the burger is
even cooked and doesn’t in any way alter
the taste or texture of the product. We are
the first. We are the pioneers. Such is the
integrity of IDQ. We are quality and we are
class.

Ice Cube (right) plays Calvin, an heir to the barbershop business started
by his father. An ensemble cast comes together to tell a story of laughter,
community and haircuts.
A little off the top and
over the top in Barbershop
The following movies are
debuting at theatres this week-
end.
BARBERSHOP
Starring Ice Cube,
Anthony Anderson
Directed by Tim Story
‘Barbershop’ is an ensem-
ble comedy about a day at a
barbershop on the south side
of Chicago.
Calvin (Ice Cube) inherited
the struggling business from
his father but sees it as a bur-
den and waste of time.
After selling the shop to a
loan shark, however, Calvin
begins to see his father’s vi-
sion and legacy –– and strug-
gles with the notion that he
just sold it out.
Calvin’s Barbershop is a
gathering place for an eclectic,
comic cast of characters.
Eddie (Cedric the Entertainer)
is an old-time barber with a
big mouth, strong opinions,
and no customers.
College student Jimmy
(Sean Patrick Thomas) has a
superiority complex and can’t
stand Isaac (Troy Garity), the
white barber who just wants a
shot at cutting some hair.
Ricky (Michael Ealy) is an ex-
con with two strikes against
him who’s trying to stay
straight, and Terri (rap star
Eve) is a hard-edged woman
who can’t seem to leave her
two-timing boyfriend.
An all-star cast comes to-
gether to tell a story of laugh-
ter, community and haircuts.
STEALING HARVARD
Starring Jason Lee,
Tom Green, Leslie Mann
Directed by Bruce
McCulloch
John (Jason Lee) and Elaine
(Leslie Mann) have vowed to
get hitched once they save
$30,000 for their dream house.
When they can finally af-
ford to walk down the aisle,
John’s sister Patty (Megan
Mullally) calls with the news
that his niece Noreen has been
accepted at Harvard.
Patty reminds John of his
promise to pay for Noreen’s
college tuition, which costs
$28,879 and is due in two
weeks. Unable to tell his girl-
friend, John turns to his friend
Duff (Tom Green) to help him
make the dough in two weeks
through petty crime.

Rams return to the
gridiron after
decades-long layoff
BY AL RIVETT
Sports Editor
AJAX —For the first time since the
1970s, football returns to Ajax High
School.
The upstart Rams will be part of the
11-team Lake Ontario Secondary
School Athletics (LOSSA) senior foot-
ball loop this season. The Rams are cur-
rently preparing for their first ever varsi-
ty game, against the perennial power-
house Henry Street High School Hawks
of Whitby at the Ajax school Friday,
Sept. 20 at 1:30 p.m.
“It will be a test for us, right from the
get-go,” noted head coach Derek Rush-
ton, who’ll be aided by assistant coach-
es Tim Craine and Don Westlake, a Uni-
versity of Guelph hall of fame line-
backer and running back.
Rushton’s currently in the process of
paring a group of 51 hopefuls down to a
final roster of 45.
Rushton’s had some experience get-
ting a fledgling program off the ground,
after serving as a coach with the Exeter
High School Falcons when the former
school launched its football program
two years ago. With the closure of Ex-
eter, the coach has brought his pigskin
expertise to Ajax High.
The school’s administration and stu-
dent body, noted Rushton, has embraced
football. There’s talk of providing a PA
announcer at all home games, but that’s
still in the works.
“There’s a lot of enthusiasm, which
is really great to see,” said Rushton.
He credits principal Shirley Smith
with spearheading the plan to field a
team. In concert with physical education
head, Brad White, Smith was instru-
mental in securing the funding and
equipment needed to get a club up and
running.
“We’re very excited and actually
think we’ll have a good team this year,”
said Smith. “I’m looking forward to our
first game.”
“There was huge interest,” added
Rushton. “We had 60 or so kids at the
first meeting. We told them we needed a
100-per cent commitment from each
athlete, so we found we had 51 at the
first practice.”
The outlook for the team, he noted, is
very positive with a number of strong
athletes in the mix, along with a number
of young players who are relatively new
to the sport.
“I think we have a lot of good ath-
letes and I think we should be competi-
tive,” noted Rushton. “It will just de-
pend on how well we jell as a team.”
The Rams will see their first pre-sea-
son action in a controlled scrimmage
against the Sinclair Secondary School
Celtics of Whitby on Monday after-
noon.
NOTES:The Rams will compete in
LOSSA senior football’s West Division
with the defending champion St. Mary
Catholic Secondary School Monarchs,
Pine Ridge Pumas, Notre Dame
Catholic Secondary School Cougars and
the Dunbarton Spartans. In the East are
the Bowmanville Redmen, Paul Dwyer
Saints, Henry Street Hawks, Sinclair
Celtics, Uxbridge Tigers and the Arch-
bishop Denis O’Connor Chargers... the
Rams won’t be the only new team in the
LOSSA senior ranks this season. Notre
Dame will also play its inaugural sea-
son... Surprisingly, the Pickering High
School Trojans will only field a junior
team. The school has been a LOSSA
powerhouse at the senior level for many
years... Whitby’s Anderson Collegiate,
which hasn’t fielded a football team in
many years, will have a junior squad.

New junior hockey season
starts Saturday
BY AL RIVETT
Sports Editor
PICKERING —Ready or not, the Pick-
ering Boyer Pontiac Panthers open their
2002-03 season this weekend.
The Panthers start the OHA Ontario
Provincial Junior ‘A’ Hockey League South
Conference regular season on the road Satur-
day night in Markham against the Waxers. A
night later, Pickering faces the Aurora Tigers
of the North Conference in its home opener
at the Pickering Recreation Complex at 7:30
p.m.
But, it’s anybody’s guess if the Panthers
are indeed ready when the curtain goes up.
The team had an abbreviated exhibition sea-
son, consisting of only three games at the an-
nual OHA Pre-Season Tournament in Vaugh-
an last weekend.
According to first-year head coach Jim
Wilson, the team put together only one solid
effort, ironically a 4-3 loss to a junior team
from Lowell, Massachusetts. The Panthers
earned only one win, a 6-4 win over the
Oakville Blades in the first game, while fin-
ishing out the event with a lacklustre 6-4 loss
to the Streetsville Derbys.
Following the team’s loss to Streetsville,
Wilson was impressed with his team’s ability
to put the puck in the net. He was, however,
concerned with the team’s lack of focus de-
fensively in the run up to the regular season.
“We have an enormous amount of team
defence to work on. In terms of team de-
fence, we’re allowing far too many goals
against us,” he says.
The Panthers may not have had an exten-
sive exhibition season, but that’s not to say
the team hasn’t preparing mightily for the
season. The team’s roster has been essential-
ly intact since mid-summer, with only minor
tinkering at the main training camp late last
month. The length of time the team has been
together should put it in good stead to jump
out of the gate quickly when the real season
starts.
As with most tier II junior clubs, this
year’s roster bears very little resemblance to
the one of a year ago. In fact, only four play-
ers remain: goaltender Scott Gray, and for-
wards Michael Alexiou, Ryan Taylor and
Brent Chandler.
The Panthers, however, have brought in
veterans from other junior ‘A’teams this year
to bolster what’s essentially a rookie squad.
Forwards James Gadon, formerly of the St.
Michael’s Buzzers, Andrew Gilbert, of the
Thornhill Rattlers, Michael Freeman of the
North York Rangers, and defenceman Dennis
Colterman, brought over from the Bramalea
Blues via the trade route, are all expected to
contribute in a major way until the rookies
can get their feet wet.
Gray is expected to see the bulk of the
load this season, but Wilson believes backup
Michael Fini, who played with the Wexford
midget ‘AAA’ squad last year, will provide
the perfect complement to Gray.
Even the coaching staff has changed 180-
degrees from last year. Longtime coach Wil-
son — a high school teacher in Toronto by
trade — was brought in this season to suc-
ceed Bill Purcell who stepped down after last
season. Wilson has been a coach at every
level over the past 30 years, including last
season as the head coach of the junior ‘A’
North York Rangers.
Among the Panthers’rookie class this sea-
son are three players who’ve toiled in the
Ajax-Pickering ‘AAA’ Raiders system. An-
drew Dissanayake, a forward with the ‘AAA’
midgets, and defencemen Ryan Annesley, of
the bantams, and Shawn Coultice, of the
midgets, have nailed down roster spots.
Although the team is young, Wilson said
he’s impressed with the speed and skill of his
forwards, along with his goaltending tandem.
All this, he hopes will add up to a successful
season.
“Much more important than age is attitude
and commitment. We just believe that char-
acter, commitment and skills on the ice are
the most important things the boys can bring
to the team,” he said.
Next weekend, Pickering plays in the
league’s annual College Weekend games at
the Erin Mills Twin Arenas in Mississauga.
All league teams see action, with the Pan-
thers suiting up against the Collingwood
Blues of the North Conference Sept. 21 at
noon.
PANTHERS’ POSTSCRIPT:There are
a couple of new wrinkles with league rules
this season. A fast faceoff rule comes into
being, along with the five-minute overtime
consisting of four-on-four play... The Parry
Sound Shamrocks of the North Conference
have taken a year’s leave of absence... North
Conference teams will play an interlocking
schedule with the South Conference.

DURHAM —The Telus

Get all shook up
for Legion Week
AJAX — A visit by the
King, some magical mo-
ments and entertainment are
all on tap as Legion Week is
celebrated in Ajax.
The week runs Sept. 15
to 21 and the Royal Canadi-
an Legion Ajax Branch 322
has a variety of events
planned, with the public in-
vited to drop in for a visit
during the day or evening.
The 430 Legion branches
across Ontario use the week
to let the public know what
legionnaires do in their
communities. There are
more than 170,000 members
in Ontario, including about
1,200 in Ajax.
Among the programs le-
gions are involved in are
youth education and sports,
and seniors activities.
One initiative of the Ajax
branch is a contribution of
$100,000 towards the new
central library.
On Sunday, Sept. 15, the
ladies’ auxiliary kicks off
the week with an afternoon
of fun, highlighted by Elvis
impersonator Dan Jackman.
It runs from 2 to 6 p.m. with
Elvis performing many of
his standards. Admission is
free and a hot buffet will be
served, at a nominal price.
Those attending the con-
cert are asked to bring a
non-perishable food item
for local food banks.
Magic Michael will as-
tonish and astound Thurs-
day, Sept. 19 from 8 to 10
p.m.
Again, admission is free
and everyone is welcome to
see if the hand is quicker
than the eye.
One of the legion’s
favourite entertainers, Lind-
say Morgan, performs Fri-
day, Sept. 20, from 9 p.m. to
1 a.m. The Ajax legion is at
111 Hunt St.

Catholic students can look to Whitby
duo for ‘leadership, assistance’ this year
DURHAM —Two Whitby stu-
dents are the Durham Catholic Dis-
trict School Board’s new student
trustees.
At the Sept. 9 board meeting in Os-
hawa, Claudia Chu, a Grade 11 stu-
dent at Father Leo J. Austin Catholic
Secondary School, and Adam Morri-
son, in Grade 12 at All Saints Catholic
Secondary School, sat at the board
table to begin their one-year term.
“We had quite a few applicants and
we set very high expectations,” board
chairman Mary Ann Martin said at the
meeting. “And, I must say, Adam and
Claudia exceeded those expectations.”
Father Phil Jones from St. Leo’s
Catholic Church in Brooklin led the
students through the board’s student
representative affirmation of faith, in
which they pledged to “provide lead-
ership and assistance to fellow stu-
dents”.
Education director Grant Edwards
then had the students sign a declara-
tion of oath and allegiance.
Student representatives became
mandatory with the passing of the
province’s Education Quality Im-
provement Act.
Whitby high school students Adam
Morrison, left, and Claudia Chu are
new Catholic student trustees.

More silver needed in 2003 to pump iron in Ajax
Town increases
membership fees at
fitness centres
BY KEITH GILLIGAN
Staff Writer
AJAX —It’s going to cost
some health club members more
to work up a sweat at the Town’s
community centres.
Starting in January, those with
non-prime hour memberships
will have to fork out almost $40
more over each of the next three
years.
The increases, approved by
Ajax council Monday, will see
the elimination of the non-prime
membership, so all adult mem-
bers will pay $351 annually after
the increases are fully imple-
mented.
Non-prime hours currently run
from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The amount seniors pay will
also increase by about $20 a year.
At the end of the three-year peri-
od, the seniors’ annual rate will
be $176.
Councillors approved keeping
the seniors, youth and student
rates at 50 per cent of the adult
rate.
Speaking to council’s general
government committee last week,
recreation services director Tom
Flood stated, “So seniors don’t
feel they’re being hit hard (be-
cause they pay 50 per cent of the
adult), staff are working hard to
cap the full fee at $351.”
But, Mr. Flood added “unfore-
seen costs” could see the adult
rate increase over the next three
years, so the $351 rate isn’t guar-
anteed.
Ward 2 local Councillor Joe
Dickson said the “increase across
the board is 50 per cent over three
years” and questioned if it was
too high.
“I personally don’t feel 50 per
cent over three years, considering
the maximum in one year is about
$40, I don’t think it’s too high,”
Mr. Flood replied.
Ward 4 local Councillor Pat
Brown noted, “The increase
won’t be met with any glee by
those members, that’s for sure.”
AJAX —A support group
holds a 10-week workshop for di-
vorced or separated fathers.
Dads Aiming for Direction and
Support (DADS) is a group offer-
ing aid to fathers during a time of
personal crisis.
The workshops, which start
Tuesday, Sept. 24 in Ajax, will
offer information to fathers wanti-
ng to improve the quality of life
they share with their children and
others. It’s a peer support group
that offers friendship and guid-
ance.
An intake appointment is re-
quired prior to taking part.
For more information or to
make an appointment, call 905-
427-8165.

Holy Redeemer celebrates 40 years of education
PICKERING —Holy Re-
deemer Catholic School in Picker-
ing celebrates its 40th anniversary
with a reunion celebration next
weekend.
“There are going to be people
who actually graduated in 1962,
they were the first Grade 8 stu-
dents,” said Kevin Cahill, who grad-
uated from the school in 1976.
A member of the reunion com-
mittee, he said plans have been in
the works for roughly a year and
word on the street is well over 500
people will attend the Sunday mass
and reception.
The weekend kicks off with a so-
cial at The Waterfront Bistro, an in-
formal dance where alumni can
catch up with one another. The
evening starts at 7:30 p.m. Saturday,
Sept. 21 and runs to 1 a.m., and tick-
ets are $20 per person.
The next day, a celebratory mass
is held at Holy Redeemer Church at
2 p.m. Immediately after the mass,
there’s a reception at the school with
refreshments, displays of memora-
bilia and greetings from the Durham
Catholic District School Board.
Current students will do their
own celebrating Sept. 23, starting
with a mass by Father John Henry,
the school’s first principal, followed
by parties in the classrooms.
To buy tickets for the Sept. 21
social, call Mr. Cahill at 905-509-
5668, or Susan at 905-686-1795.
For more information, call Heide
Sauer at 905-839-5409, ext 5777.
