New Durham College-UOIT building offers comfort and technology By Mike Ruta Staff Writer DURHAM – Sitting on a couch, leafing through a mag- azine and enjoying the warmth of the gas fireplace, UOIT and Durham College students can watch their peers going for a skate on the pond. The vantage point is the second-floor periodicals room at the new campus library in Oshawa, and the time is the near future. The University of Ontario Institute of Technolo- gy and Durham College li- brary is open to students, al- though some finishing work will continue before the official opening in October. It is the signature piece on the quad- rangle that will be the heart of the campus. The four-storey, 6,800- square-metre building has 160 computer stations and cost $20 million. “I think when the students walk in they’re going to be blown away,” says Susan Bar- clay-Pereira, dean of the cam- pus library. She’s a veteran at Durham College, and now UOIT, hav- ing been there for almost three decades. She jokes, “I was hired as a child.” Like a child showing off a Christmas gift, Ms. Barclay- Pereira says taking the reins of the building “is just an ab- solute professional peak of my career.” She says the former li- brary, “completely ‘maxed’ out” for space, could hold ✦See Evolution page 2 Picture coming into focus Pickering council hopes for announcement on photo radar By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING – While Council- lor Bill McLean is disap- pointed the Province didn’t make an announcement last week giving municipalities use of photo radar, he is still hopeful it is on its way. “I was certainly disap- pointed. I was waiting for the minister to announce that,” said the Ward 2 regional councillor upon returning from the Association of Mu- nicipalities of Ontario (AMO) conference in Ot- tawa. The association had asked the Province for the right to use photo radar in cities and towns Coun. McLean, who has been pushing for photo radar for years, believes the tool would be best used by mu- nicipalities. “We know where the prob- lems are, we know where the complaints are,” he said, ex- plaining because councillors receive so many traffic com- plaints they would know where to best put photo radar to increase safety. “That way it is not a money maker but it can go to changing driving habits,” he said. Coun. McLean is planning on writing a letter to John Gerretsen, Ontario minister of municipal affairs and housing, which he hopes to bring to council to be en- dorsed and sent on behalf of the City. Mayor Dave Ryan was also looking for an announce- ment by the Province at the conference. “Some of us were surprised that he (Premier Dalton McGuinty) didn’t announce photo radar, so I think the Province is still wrestling with it as well,” he said. Mayor Ryan said there was discussion by members at the conference about photo radar and the consensus was it would improve safety on Highway rollover Carl Ferencz/ News Advertiser photo PICKERING – Tr affic was snarled and two lanes closed Monday morning on Hwy. 401 after a minivan flipped just west of Whites Road.

China Garden at 329 Sim- coe St. S. in Oshawa topped the list with the most con- victions, at 13. The restaurant, which is no longer in business, was f ined $4,700 for violations in- cluding failing to keep a poi- sonous substance separate from food and failing to keep premises clean to pre- vent food contamination and adulteration. DeVille Produce, an inde- pendent grocer at 3570 Brock St. N. in Whitby, con- tested its 12 convictions in an interview Thursday. “I don’t know. For some reason they’ve harped on us,” said Michael Guzzo, manager of the store. “They haven’t really given us a chance to rectify the situa- tion. “A fter 22 years we’ve been (in business), all of a sudden certain regulations are being enforced.” CLAREMONT –Shots rang out but no one was hurt, when two masked men at- tempted to rob the general store in a quiet north Pick- ering hamlet Friday night. Durham Regional Police said a 42-year-old man was working alone in the Clare- mont General Store around 8:30 p.m. when two men wearing balaclavas entered. One of the masked men was holding a gun, police said. The clerk fled to a post of- f ice area located inside the store and closed the door behind him.

But the library isn’t just about the books anymore says Sydney Browne, project architect, of Diamond and Schmitt Architects, “The way the library is used has re- ally changed over the last 15 or 20 years,” she says, noting the focus has shifted from the book collection to the use of the library by students and staff. Ms. Browne says learning is a much more collaborative process now and there is access to a wide range of on- line material. Her design reflects that new reality in the range of spaces available to students. “Now we have a number of ‘book- able’ study rooms and small class- rooms where students can learn to use the material available and work in groups,” she says. To accommodate students with special needs, large study carrels are equipped with listening and reading software. Upon entering the building, the ref- erence and circulation desks are on either side. For students who know what they’re after, and how to access it, directly in front of the entrance are computer terminals that are the win- dow to the library’s resources. Each floor contains a help desk and a pho- tocopying room. The periodicals room is in the ro- tunda at the west end of the building. Ms. Barclay-Pereira says it will be fur- nished with couches, low tables and a massive magazine rack. A staircase leads to the third floor, and on the first is a cafe where students can get a caffeine boost before getting to work or relax with peers after a study ses- sion. The rotunda is wrapped in cop- per, echoing the copper atop other buildings on the quadrangle. Other features include the second floor, main study area, a huge space with computer work stations de- signed for both wired and wireless ac- cess. A wall of windows provides nat- ural light and a superior view of the quadrangle. “The intent is to have a lot of green- space out there for students to gath- er,” says Ms. Barclay-Pereira. She notes that focus groups of stu- dents and staff resulted in a lot of input on what the design should in- clude. One priority was an “absolute- ly quiet” reading room, which also doubles as a space for special events such as a visit from a guest speaker. There’s also a special collections room for rare and unique volumes. The fourth floor is shelled in and won’t be used at first, but is ready for future expansion. A garden sits atop the building. “There were a lot of green initia- tives built into all the buildings and the site work on the campus,” says Ms. Browne. The garden is not accessible, but more of a functional, green design fea- ture, she explains. Stormwater will mostly be absorbed by the plants, and apart from assisting with cooling and heating, the garden will extend the life of the building’s roof.

Public board trustees invite residents to have their say By Mike Ruta Staff Writer DURHAM — The first day of school is typically chaotic for parents, students and teachers. This year, the frenzy could continue well into the evening on Sept. 7, when public school board trustees let Durham residents have their say on a controversial new bus- ing policy. Some Durham District School Board trustees are concerned parents will have “false hope” in having the meeting, in thinking that the trans- portation policy could be changed. But, the trustee who called for public input says it definitely is possible that the four-month-old policy could be amended. Trustees in April eliminated sur- plus seating for about 900 students who counted on it to get to school last year. The policy change benefited par- ents who rely on day care, allowing students to be dropped off and picked up at different addresses. The policy was passed at the standing commit- tee and not the board level, catching many parents off guard. “We made a decision without prop- er public input; we missed the boat on that one,” Pickering Trustee Paul Crawford said at Monday’s board meeting in calling for deputations on the issue. A group of Whitby parents told the board that without a bus, their kids face injury and the risk of being killed getting to Bellwood Public School be- cause there are no sidewalks. A new way of measuring the distance to a school shut them out of busing. However business superintendent Ed Hodgins said through an error discovered just recently, some par- ents in the Dundas Street and Gar- rard Road area did not receive a letter informing them of the policy change. Those parents will receive busing this fall, but their neighbours, who were notified, will not, he said. “Our children will be required to walk along the travelled portion of the roadway during the winter months in rush hour,” Powell Road resident James Hellas told trustees, adding “a fatal student-vehicle collision is in- evitable. “We’re not willing to wait until one of our children is killed or injured be- fore you review this issue,” Mr. Hellas said. Caroline McLennan described her- self as “a very young mom” who has “lost sleep this summer just thinking of this whole issue. “I will not allow my young child to walk without sidewalks,” said the Mansfield Crescent resident. “They’re young; they’ll wander out into the road.” A board kindergarten teacher, Ms. McLennan said if she approached her principal for permission to take a field trip on the route, she would be re- fused. Mr. Hodgins said a lack of side- walks does not necessarily constitute a safety hazard. Traffic volume and the nature of the subdivision also have to be considered, he said, sug- gesting a walking group be organized to allay parents’ fears. Some trustees said the policy was a done deal, but others encour- aged the public input, which brings with it the possibility of change. “Every night somebody isn’t happy, are we going to have a night of deputa- tions for them?” asked Ajax Wards 1 and 2 Trustee Marilyn Crawford. “At some point do we not say, ‘the policy is the policy.’” She said parents have rearranged schedules and even bought second cars as a result of the new policy. Pickering Trustee Sherry Croteau, who seconded Trustee Paul Craw- ford’s call for deputations, said the board can’t turn its back on people. However, she doubts the policy will be changed as school starts. “Maybe we were a little hasty in pushing this through,” said Whitby Trustee John Dol- stra. “I want to take another look and say, ‘did we make all the right decisions.’” Oshawa Trustee Kathleen Hopper, who will chair the Sept. 7 meeting, was con- cerned about the number of people wanting to speak. “I don’t want to see an agenda that is so impossi- bly long that we’re just pushing peo- ple through to hear them,” she said. Trustee Hopper is against reopen- ing the policy. However, she was con- cerned after hearing of students who will have to walk on the road. Board chairwoman Elizabeth Roy said if there truly was a safety issue, board staff “would be jumping on it quickly.” She noted that on June 21 trustees turned down revisiting the policy. At that board meeting, the ma- jority of trustees favoured taking a second look at the policy, but a re- quired two-thirds majority was not obtained. According to the board, trustees cannot vote on changing the policy until at least October. Mr. Hodgins says a new provincial transportation policy, to be intro- duced in 2005/06, will mean about $3.7 million less in transportation money for the board, representing about 20 per cent of its busing budget and hav- ing “a major impact on the system.” As well, the Province has compelled the board to align its busing policy with that of the Durham Catholic Dis- trict School Board, which does not offer surplus seating. The Sept. 7 standing committee meeting starts at 7 p.m. at the Whitby education centre. Deputations will be heard until 9 p.m., but residents must register by calling the board’s Kim Cox at 905-666-6363. www.durhamregion.com NEWS ADVERTISER,WEDNESDAY EDITION, September 1, 2004 PAGE 3 A/P Your card will be stamped when you spend $4.00 or more (same day sales before taxes) at one or more Pickering Town Centre Food Court restaurants.

Mr. McGuinty told the conference that the idea to allow municipalities to use photo radar is under consid- eration but that they would have to make a compelling case that this is about public safety. Mayor Ryan is sure the issue is going to arise in council chambers. “I’m anticipating that Pickering, very early when it convenes, will be looking at this issue and that photo radar will be accepted on our city streets,” he said.

Issue headed for Pickering council Man faces Internet sex charges By Jeff Mitchell Staff Writer DURHAM – A former camp counsel- lor who went by the Internet nick- name “Moose” has been charged with attempting to lure a 13-year-old girl into a sexual liaison, Durham Re- gional Police say. The charges were laid after officials at a Clarington summer camp con- tacted police, said Detective Consta- ble Kate Lang. The Ajax girl alerted another counsellor at the camp when she be- came uncomfortable with the direc- tion her Internet messaging conver- sations with the suspect were taking, Det.-Const. Lang said. “The camp brought this to our at- tention,” she said. “They did every- thing right.” Police say the girl and the suspect, who met at the summer camp when the suspect worked there briefly in Aug ust, had been communicating back and forth online for some time before any sexual advances were made. When discussions did turn sexual, the girl kept records of ex- changes and alerted another adult at the camp, Det.-Const. Lang said. The youngster was fully aware the “Moose” she was chatting with online was a counsellor from the camp she had attended, she said. “The conversation started turning sexual and she became very uncom- fortable with it,” she said. Police say no actual sexual contact took place, either at the camp or away from it. “The camp has strict rules about (counsellors and children interacting in) groups,” Det.-Const. Lang said. “There’s never anybody alone. “We’re quite confident nothing took place when he was working.” Police continue to investigate to determine whether or not the sus- pect attempted to communicate with other children outside the camp. Investigators attempted to con- tact the suspect a number of times without success. He was finally ar- rested last Friday in Oshawa. “He was eluding police and police eventually caught up with him,” Det.- Const. Lang said. Charged with luring a child; invita- tion to sexual touching; attempted sexual assault and obstructing police is 28-year-old Ian Lovell of Jane Av- enue in Courtice. Mr. Lovell was freed on bail after a hearing in Oshawa Saturday. He is to return to court Sept. 13. School trustee, former councillor throw hats in Pickering byelection race PICKERING –Eileen Higdon and Paul Crawford have added their names to the candidates’ list in the Wa rd 2 byelection for the City councillor’s position. Mr. Crawford is currently in his third term as a trustee on the Durham District School Board. Ms. Higdon brings with her expe- rience in both elections and munic- ipal politics, having previously served as councillor for the ward from 1991 to 1994. She filed her nomination papers Aug. 25. Nominations can be sub- mitted until Friday, Sept. 24. Ms. Higdon and Mr. Crawford join Terry James and Brian Evely in the race. The byelection was called after former Ward 2 Pickering Regional Councillor Mark Holland was elect- ed an MP, and Bill McLean was ap- pointed to that role from his City councillor’s position for Ward 2. The election is Monday, Nov. 8. WANTED BY POLICE. ✦ Issue from page 1 The store’s violations include failing to properly clean utensils and surfaces, and cracked equip- ment being used with food, for a total fine of almost $3,000. But before laying charges, the health department visits premises at least twice - with time in be- tween to fix problems - before charges are laid, Alex Connor, a manager of environmental health, has said. “(But) at the end of the day, you can’t really walk out of a place and leave a mess behind,” he said dur- ing a health and social services committee meeting Thursday. “Ninety-five per cent of the time you talk to the guy... and he makes an effort. “But there’s a problem when they go back to their (old) ways.” Mr. Guzzo said all of the prob- lems have been fixed. “We take every precaution possi- ble to make sure the quality that comes in and goes out to our cus- tomers are the highest standards,” he said. The owner of the restaurant with the next most convictions, Bob Caygeon’s at 1790 Liverpool Rd. in Pickering, said the eight were “very, very minor.” “The health inspector visited yes- terday and he was very happy,” said Pren Nadarajah. “Everything has been fixed.” The restaurant’s $900 in fines in- cluded not washing surfaces prop- erly and not having soap or deter- gent in some areas. The health de- partment is re- quired by the Province to regu- larly inspect restaurants in order to reduce the risk of food- borne illness. The latest con- victions were for January to June of this year, with a few from 2003 depending on court and pro- cessing dates. Mr. Connor described visiting one restaurant where raw chicken was being washed beside a sink filled with lettuce leaves, the juice “splashing” all over. “Why we didn’t have an outbreak, I don’t know,” he said, a photo of the sink blown up on a screen be- hind him. “But I condemned the whole place.” Mr. Connor displayed photos of a now-closed sandwich café, which showed crusted-over egg salad sandwiches, milk left out all day, and dirty knives stored in cracks on a trolley. One of the chefs used to wipe his knife on his apron between cuttings. The establishment received the largest-ever fine in Durham Region history: $15,000 plus a $6,250 victim surcharge, Mr. Connor said. He also held up some of the equipment regularly seized from restaurants: pans crusted with seared food and dried flour, a buck- et used for scooping out ingredi- ents with pieces of metal hanging off and a meat tenderizer with a wobbly head full of holes. The committee and council de- cided last year to release a list of convictions to the media a few times a year for the sake of public awareness, said Ken Gorman, di- rector of environmental health. But they could be doing more, he added. The department is discussing al- ternatives with the Province, and is watching municipalities such as To r onto, where restaurants must post pass, warning or fail cards in their windows. The other convicted restaurants are: Eight convictions: Bakery Gar- den Cafe (also a $15,000 fine), Os- hawa Centre (now closed). Seven convictions: Hong Kong Golden Gate Restaurant, Port Perry; Don Cherry’s Grapevine Champlain, Whitby. Five convictions: Coffee Time Donuts (which also had three con- victions from the previous time frame), 1615 Dundas St., Whitby. Four convictions: Kirby Burger Bakery (which also had two convic- tions from the previous time frame), Orono. Three convictions: Churchill’s Fish and Chips, Oshawa. Two convictions: Eurest, The Bear and Firkin, Food Time Restaurant and Catering and Swa- gat Indian Cuisine, all from Picker- ing; Good Deal Super Buffet, Ajax. One conviction: Double Burgers, Oshawa; Fox and Fiddle Mansion and Asia Hut, both from Pickering; Barnaby’s Deli Restaurant, Cour- tice; Pirate’s Pizza, Beaverton. The public can access inspection reports and detailed convictions at www.region.durham.on.ca, or by calling the health department at 905-723-8521 or toll free at 1-800-841- 2729. Fines range from $50 to $25,000, plus a victim fine surcharge and can include a summons to court. www.durhamregion.com NEWS ADVERTISER,WEDNESDAY EDITION, September 1, 2004 PAGE 5 A/P Why lose sleep over home heating rates?

Editorials &Opinions WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 ✦ News Advertiser ✦ DAVID STELL, NEWS EDITOR, 905-683-5110 EXT. 249 Letters to the Editor Parents: watch your children To the editor: These days‚ kids love to play tag during the summer when most of their parents are at their jobs or working in the house. Kids get so involved in it that they do not realize how much danger they can get into. My point is that if kids are playing outside, parents should super- vise them. When kids are play- ing tag they sometimes run near or onto main roads or highways where they may be hit by a car. This is not the only problem. The other is that drivers can be distracted. When kids appear on the road all of a sudden, the dri- ver cannot always stop the car in time. In the end parent and child are in pain. So parents, please supervise your children before something like this occurs. Attiya Waqqas, 15 Pickering Felicien a true champion and inspiration To the editor: Perdita, there's no need to say sorry. A couple of months ago, some of my fellow runners and I had the honour and privilege of meeting Perdita Felicien. Ms. Felicien, the great role model that she is took the time out of her busy training schedule to talk to us, entertain the kids and answer all our questions. We left the track that night in- spired, totally motivated, not to mention excited by her pres- ence. Our friendship however did not stop at the track that night. Ms. Felicien and her mother vis- ited us at the Pickering Running Room. When one runner re- quested a picture for the store, she graciously provided it to us. This picture is now displayed prominently for all to see. We can't wait for Ms. Felicien to come home so that we can hon- our her. Ms. Felicien truly is a world champion and a credit to our country. There's no need to say sorry. We on the other hand would like to recognize her kindness, her words of motivation, and for being Perdita. Ms. Felicien is an inspiration to both the young and the old, those of us who are athletic and those of us who are not. She makes us proud to be Canadian and we are proud to know her. Larry Leerschool, Ajax Joanne Bayes, Scarborough Karen More, Pickering Tr y to enjoy our flying visitors To the editor: Re: 'Swarm of insects a cause for a second take,' Aug. 29. I was very interested to read this story as this is a natural phenomenon that I personally look forward to every year. As a child, I was fascinated by the modest wildlife I found in my yard and neighbourhood. Early on, I noticed a pattern that persisted for several years running. On a sticky, humid evening around Aug. 26, swarms of ants would leave their holes and take flight, sometimes in such numbers that they seemed to fill the air. To a youngster like me, this was a thrilling occasion to break up an otherwise boring summer. After a few years, my friends and I came to refer to this date as Flying Ant Day. This natural event has per- sisted to a greater or lesser de- gree, through the 50 years I have lived here in southern Ontario. Although in some years the swarms can certainly be annoy- ing, they are essentially harm- less and last for only a day or two. Lately, we have also seen plagues of aphids, ladybugs and, this year - crane flies. To me, these are indicative of a local ecosystem that is, for whatever reason, out of balance. I have to deal with these pests like most other homeowners. (Although, without pesticides, if I can help it.) However, every year I look for- ward to the flying ants in late Aug ust. They remind me of the days, long ago, when I was less distracted by the responsibili- ties of suburban living, and more respectful of my tiny neighbours. Alex Heydon Ajax We need to get back to true spirit of the Olympics Ithink it's time for a little Olympic housecleaning, time to rethink the whole shebang. Somebody tell me what the hell events like syn- chronized diving and table ten- nis are doing in there? What's next? Olympic Freestyle Scrabble? "Look at that Jim! The Cubans have spelled rhumba‚ on a triple word score incorporating the b‚ from the Swiss's Toblerone! This could get ugly." And what is up with the judg- ing? The other day I watched a Romanian gymnast fall off the high bar. He actually fell and landed flat on his back. Was he out? Did he get a zero? No! They let him start again! He ended up with a score in the low nines. How do you figure that? Days later I watched a Chi- nese athlete do the same thing, brutally missing her opening vault onto the balance beam. She ended up scoring higher than a Canadian who completed her routine without falling. In my Olympics, if you fall, or trip or slip or do a belly flop, you're outta there, pal. Sayonara, via condios, auf vedersein, thanks for coming out. It's time to give the Olympic games back their edge. Like the bloated NHL, there's too much money involved now and not enough passion. It has its mo- ments. God knows when Perdi- ta fell, I was weeping right along with her, but when Canada sends more suits than athletes to the Games, you know some- thing is seriously out of whack. So how do we fix it? Well, how about, for starters, we say that in order for something to qualify as an Olympic event, the partic- ipant's heart rate must go above 50 at some point. Secondly, we automatically eliminate all events that have the words syn- chronized‚ and rhythmic‚ at- tached to them. Either that or we keep those events in, but re- place the words synchronized‚ and rhythmic‚ with full contact. That might spice things up. Thirdly, we replace all diving events with a huge cannonball competition. Tell me that wouldn't be fun to watch? And for God's sake let's stop handing out points for cute. Ever since Olga Korbut did her im- pression of a smiling, twisted Gumby on the balance beam, we've been inundated with scores of beaming, imp-faced half-pints in spandex who want to steal our hearts. Where are the homely gymnasts? Give me the butt-ugly toads who win their points on skill and nothing but. I'm so tired of seeing beautiful cut-outs who are there simply because they're pusses will look good on cereal boxes a month after the games. Remember Vasily Alexiev, the grotesquely fat weightlifter from the then Soviet Union? That was an ath- lete, my friends. No winning smile, no Hollywood figure, just raw guts and lots of them. He made your heart race just watching him stride onto the platform. Let's keep Ping-Pong in the rec room and get back to blood, sweat and tears. Sunderland resident Neil Crone, actor-comic-writer, saves some of his best lines for his columns. Let’s improve the Games Neil Crone e n t e r l a u g h i n g In the community Durham’s voice in Ontario a lot louder now Chairman’s promotion to AMO president good for us all It used to be that when Roger Anderson spoke, Durham listened. Now, the regional chairman has a much wider audience and speaks for a much larger group: all the municipalities of Ontario. Mr. Anderson, Durham Regional chairman since 1997, took a crack at the Association of Municipalities of On- tario (AMO) presidency back in 2002, narrowly losing to Oakville mayor Ann Mulvale. This time, Mr. Anderson was an easy winner and will embark on a two-year term at the helm of the 400-plus member organization. His mandate will be to make sure provincial and feder- al cabinet ministers hear him loud and clear. He will be quick to remind his senior government counterparts of the political influence of AMO members and the publicity he can generate: both pro and con. All in all, Mr. Anderson is coming into the AMO presi- dency at an ideal time. Ms. Mulvale has just concluded a protocol with Premier Dalton McGuinty which gives mu- nicipalities a bigger stake at the cabinet table. And, mu- nicipalities across the province are due to soon receive the long-awaited gas-tax revenue that will help cities and towns provide some needed services without having to boost property taxes. Of course, the cities agenda, which received play during this past federal election, cannot be dismissed with a sim- ple promise to provide gas-tax cash and GST rebates. The prime minister and premier need constant reminding that the vast majority of taxpayers and voters live in cities and their needs must be addressed. For Durham, Mr. Anderson's elevation to the top of the municipal food chain is proof of his stature among his peers. He is well-respected and admired for the passion he has dedicated throughout his career to the citizens of Durham. Whatever good he can do his fellow AMO mem- bers will, of course, be realized in Durham. In addition, complaints that the Province has been ne- glectful of the needs of those who live east of Toronto, can now be dealt with from the top. Mr. Anderson can take the opportunity, as AMO president, to remind the premier and minister of municipal affairs that there are needs in the eastern GTA which can't be ignored. His voice will be heard, loud and clear. Carl Ferencz/ News Advertiser photo You say tomato, I say... Willi Moh holds up a big ’ol tomato he grew in his Ajax garden this summer.

The correct way to light your propane barbecue is to open the lid and strike your match or barbecue lighter before turning on the gas. When you are finished barbecuing, turn off the propane cylinder valve and then the barbecue burners. Always use and store your barbecue and propane cylinder outdoors. For information about cleaning and maintaining your barbecue, read the manufacturer's instructions.

Three Ajax girls danced their way to Florida to improve their skills DURHAM –Three Ajax girls had a chance to show their best moves for an international competition in Or- lando, Florida recently. Taylor Jarvis, 11, Audrianna Mar- tin del Campo, 9, and Katie Riddel, 10 , were chosen to join the Extreme Team with dancers from across Nor th America. The competition in- cluded a five-day workshop where the girls learned two routines that they performed at Universal Studios and at the Footloose International Competition. The girls said it was a lot of work and choreography to prepare, but loved every minute. They represent- ed O'Brien's Dance Studio and in- structor Jessica O'Brien flew down to take part as a counsellor in the workshops. The trio, close friends, will soon be learning new routines for the up- coming competition season, begin- ning in March.

Twenty-two seniors contributed works to the book, published in June of this year. The class, a creative writing course by instructor Ruth Walker, began in 1989 and meets Wednes- days at the Northview branch of the Oshawa Senior Citizens Centres.

Artistic director Jeremy Smith said actor Woody Har- relson was spotted in the audience. This summer, Driftwood, which originated in Durham, visited 17 communities from Brantford to Kingston to Bobcaygeon, with stops in almost every major community along the way. This marked the highest grossing, single-production season in its 10- year history. The company is current- ly struggling with a $15,000 deficit and is grateful to the generous audi- ence members, founder Smith said. The production was a mix of Shakespeare's text with a capella music, composed and arranged by Kevin Fox, Tom Lillington and Lanie Treen. The production reunited Steven Burley and Smith on stage together as Oberon and Puck, respectively, for the first time since Driftwood's inau- g ural season in 1995. Other cast members included Mark Crawford as Peter Quince, Christopher Dar- roch as Demetrius, Madeleine Dono- hue as Titania/Hyppolita, Jesse Aaron Dwyre as Lysander/Starveling, Audra Gray as Hermia/Snug, Andrew Hodwitz as Bottome, Bethany Jillard as Pease- blossome/Snout, Cameron Johnston as Egeus/Flute and Sara Moyle as Helena. Driftwood Theatre closes 10th season on a high note Highland dance captivates her Pickering teen has hopes to be an Ontario competition rep next year By David Stell News Editor PICKERING –Breanne Nicholson is working her way toward becoming a top performer in highland dancing. The 13-year-old Pickering resident took first place in the Canadian Na- tional Highland Dance Competition earlier this summer with three titles in the pre-premier (under-13) divi- sion. Held in Winnipeg, dancers from all over Canada, the U.S. and Scot- land competed. Breanne just nar- rowly missed winning an award for dancer of the games, after taking first place in nine of 11 events in the three competitions. Dancers com- peted in traditional dance steps, such as the Highland fling and sword dance. She attended with teacher Sherry Dalliday of Dalliday Highland Dance. It was a busy summer for her after winning in Winnipeg, heading to Uxbridge and Fergus to perform as well. Her goal some day is to be an On- tario rep she says. She competed to be a rep this year and placed ninth. Next year she wants to crack the top six, which will get her closer to the qualifying standard of top three. And she has a good idea how to do that. "I have to keep practising and build up stamina and get the tech- nique down," she explains. Currently, she practices three times a week with her teacher in 90- minute sessions and once a week on her own. She's been dancing for the past five years and started when she met a friend who performed the dance. "I met a girl in soccer who danced," she says. "I went to Nova Scotia and saw some highland danc- ing and decided to do it. I thought it was really interesting."

See page 16 Pickering mosquitoes sweep Whitby to earn championship shot PICKERING — The Pickering Red Sox 'AAA' mosquito rep baseball team is head- ing to the provincial championships this weekend after winning its league title over Whitby recently. The Red Sox captured the Eastern Ontario Baseball Association (EOBA) crown by defeating Whitby Blue in three consecutive games in the best-of-five final series. Pickering completed the sweep with a decisive 14-2 victory in the final game. Pickering won game one 9-5 and then posted a 13-8 victory. The three victories helped the Red Sox accumulate an impressive 23-0 record since July 23. They hope to contin- ue their winning ways when they repre- sent the EOBA at the Ontario Baseball As- sociation (OBA) championships over the Labour Day long weekend. Pickering ball players keep getting better and better PICKERING — The Pickering Red Sox rookie ball rep team started the season with two players who had never played baseball before and three others who were underage. But the group of eight and nine-year- olds improved each week, almost taking the EOBA Playoff Tournament final earlier this month (August) against a Whitby team. The players began the tournament with a hard-fought 2-1 win in eight innings over Port Hope, followed by a victory over Oshawa. After losing a game to Whit- by, the Rookie Ball team bounced back with an impressive, come-from-behind vic- tory over Ajax. Waiting for them in the finals was their old nemesis, Whitby, which proved too strong. Fine defensive play by the mid- dle infielders and clutch hitting by the en- tire squad propelled the team to the fi- nals. Before their final appearance in the EOBA event, the team made the semi-fi- nals of two other tournaments. The team members are Mitchell Roberts, David Sagat, Cameroon Moore, Nathaniel Tannis, Dylan Pratt, Corey Ross, Mitchell Somerville, Steven Conely, Crist- ian Carlevaris, Hartley Russell, Bradley Bell and Ryan Hearn. Joseph Somerville is the team man- ager and the coaches are Peter Ross, Glen Conely, Claudio Carlevaris and Ian Roberts. Ball player a Golden Norsemen AJAX — Adam Anderson is taking his ball and heading to Northeastern Okla- homa A&M College. The 17-year-old has received a partial athletic scholarship to the junior college in Miami, Oklahoma, where he'll play base- ball. The left-handed pitcher calls the scholarship "a pretty good deal." A graduate of Ajax High School, An- derson says he was approached by Northeastern coach Roger Ward in June. Anderson is a member of the Ontario Blue Jays and the team was in Oklahoma for a series of games. "I pitched there. When I walked off the field, the first thing was the guy talked to me," he says. "I talked to them before the end of June," he says, adding it took the next few weeks to get the paperwork finalized. The Blue Jays' road trip also included stops in Memphis, Auburn and Atlanta, and the team won two tournaments. Following a four-day rest at home, the team was then off to Michigan for another pair of tourneys. With the Blue Jays, he pitched, mostly from the bullpen, although he did start a few games. As a junior college, it's a two-year program. Anderson says he could leave the school after one year, although he ex- pects to stay the full two years. "If I get something better, I could transfer out," he notes. "I'll probably go for two years. It depends on what happens, but I'll be there for two years." He's going to study history and geog- raphy, hoping for a history degree, and then head to teacher's college. The Golden Norsemen play a 56- game schedule in the spring. During the fall, the team plays exhibition games. It competes in the Bi-State Conference. "Everyone tells me it is the best junior college conference in the States," says Anderson. The number-one junior college team is in the conference and the second- ranked squad made it to the 'juco' World Series. Northeastern is ranked third in the conference. "There are a lot of good teams down there," Anderson notes. There are six players from the Blue Jays in other schools in the Bi-State Con- ference. The school is on the border with Mis- souri, and Miami has a population of about 25,000. Winder likes his roster depth Panthers coach vows junior club will be better than last year By Al Rivett Sports Editor PICKERING — John Winder is clearly in an upbeat mood as his Pickering Panthers roster begins to take shape entering the second week of training camp. The second-year head coach says the piecing together of the OHA On- tario Provincial Junior 'A' Hockey League club's roster puzzle is further along than it was at this point a sea- son ago. More important, it's a camp that's deep in talent -- something that couldn't be said a year ago. "We've got 17 players who we feel will be on the team; last year we had seven, so we're a little bit ahead," says Winder. "I'm not saying we have the top players in the league, but we're in better shape than we were last year." The club continues its nine-game exhibition schedule this week, play- ing against the Streetsville Derbys on Tuesday at the Pickering Recre- ation Complex, with the result un- available at press time. Tonight (Wednesday), the Pan- thers play host to the Lindsay Muskies at the complex at 8:30 p.m. and then they travel east Thursday to play the cross-town rival Ajax Ax- emen at the Ajax Community Centre at 8 p.m. The Panthers started their pre- season schedule last Tuesday on home ice with a 7-1 loss to the visit- ing Wexford Raiders. On Thursday night, Pickering evened its exhibi- tion record to 1-1 with a 9-2 drubbing of the host Derbys at the Vic John- ston Arena. In Tuesday's pre-season opener, it was rookie goaltender Ryan Daniels who stood out, allowing only one goal on 14 shots in his period and a half of work. The blowout victory over Streetsville marked the emergence of the forward line of Phil McIlhone, Chris Harrison and Justin Fox who combined to score five of the nine Pickering goals. McIlhone led the way with three goals and an assist, while Fox, a Whitby minor hockey product, also contributed four points (one goal, three assists). Har- rison, of Uxbridge, had one goal. With so few veteran players in camp last year, the Panthers were forced to fill holes with raw rookies who struggled out of the gate. This season, however, there are veterans at all positions and, with few roster spots remaining, the intensity has been ramped up within the camp, says Winder. "There's a lot of competition for spots on the team this year," he says. "We told them that there are spots there to be taken. Last year, we were just trying to fill spots, this year we're trying to pare it down. It's a welcome change. With the returning vets, it's just making it a lot more re- freshing to look out on the ice and see what I've got." Unlike last year, the Panthers are especially deep on defence, with the likes of newly minted team captain Ryan Annesley, Danny Sullivan, Michael Banwell and newly acquired rearguard Kyle Roulston, who came over to the Panthers from the Owen Sound Greys of the Mid-West Junior 'B' League. Roulston played for Owen Sound the past three seasons and last year was their captain, lead- ing the defence with 12 goals and 18 assists. Making their case to stick on the blue-line are rookie defencemen Kyle VandeBospoort and Chris Dixon, both having played with the Ajax- Pickering Raiders organization last season. "In the two exhibition games they've played, they both looked great," acknowledged Winder. In terms of goaltending, the team starts the season with Bryan Scher- mele, who came over to the Panthers in a trade with Trenton Sting before last year's trade deadline, as the in- cumbent puck stopper. Vying for the backup job is local product Ryan Daniels and Carson Hau, of the To ronto Red Wings midgets. Up front, Andrew Dissanayake, the Panthers leading scorer last sea- son, is expected to lead the way again. McIlhone, John Scrymgeour, Richard Schofield, and Derek Lyn- don are all returning for the 2004-05 season. In addition to forwards Harrison and Fox, rookie Gregg Riggs is also enjoying a solid camp. The diminu- tive forward played with the Ajax- Pickering Raiders as well as with the St. Mary Catholic Secondary School Monarchs last season. The Panthers are looking forward to a better campaign than the previ- ous one where the team finished a distant eighth in the nine-team South Conference standings with a dismal 12-30-7-0 record. While Winder says the club may not be at the top of the conference heap this year, it will certainly be more com- petitive. "I have all the confidence in the world we're not going to finish sec- ond last in the division," says Winder. "We're going to finish better, how much better is tough to say. The ownership wants third place. That may be a little optimistic, but if we're able to do it, I'll be very, very happy."

Pickering tennis players serve up medals at Ontario Games Chow earns complete set PICKERING —Pickering tennis play- ers swept up the lion's share of the medals at the Ontario Summer Games in London recently. Stephen Chow, 16, of the Pickering Tennis Academy, won gold, silver and bronze on the tennis court at the University of Western Ontario. Meanwhile, Gillian Daues, 16, cap- tured silver and bronze medals and Maia Kirk, 16, won bronze. Chow won four straight matches to capture gold in the men's singles event. He paired with partner Myles Kaufman, of Scarborough, to win sil- ver in men's doubles. He and his Pickering academy teammates won the bronze in the team competition. For the singles gold medal, Chow started out strongly to take a 3-0 lead over top-seeded Michael Syer, of Oakville. Syer fought back to even the match at 3-3 before took the first set 6-3. Chow continued his solid play into the final set, winning 6-4. In the semifinal, Chow played a hard-fought match to knock off sec- ond-seeded Byron Wowchuk, of Oakville, 7-5, 6-2. Chow defeated fellow teammate Alex Hustler 0-4, 4-1, 4-0 in the first round, which used a short format. Next, Chow hammered Toronto's Peter Nawara 4-1, 4-0. In men's doubles play, Chow and Kaufman fought to two straight tiebreakers against top-seeded Syer and Wowchuk. In the end, Chow and Kaufman lost a nail-biter 7-6 (10-8), 7-6 (7-4). In the semifinal, Chow and Kaufman edged Ben Cooke and Nawara, of Toronto, 2-4, 4-1, 5-3. In the team event, the Pickering Tennis Academy team of Chow, Amanda Brown, Alex Hustler and Melissa McQueen played for the bronze medal, defeating the host London team 5-1. A team match con- sisted of two mixed doubles and four singles matches against another team. In early round-robin action, Pickering defeated the Ace Tennis Academy of Burlington 6-0 and lost to Scarborough 4-2. Brown and McQueen also earned a silver medal in women's doubles play, with the bronze medal going to Cecilia Pye and Nadia Luchetta, also of the Pickering academy. Hustler and Idrees Khan won the bronze in men's doubles. Meanwhile, Daues, of the Scarbor- ough Tennis Club, won the silver in the team category, while earning a co-bronze medal in women's doubles with partner Chelsea Hsieh. Kirk won her bronze medal as a member of the Scarborough Tennis Club team at the Games.
