commitment to the project.
A resolution was adopted
to approve the rezoning of
the land.

added "it will be impossible to make repairs to these homes as they will
be too close."

Public Business
by Bob Watson
Despite the current charges pending in a local court sug-
gesting that, at least, there is some lack of proper business-
like action in the Board of Scarborough government, this
week a meeting was called for the board of control, and
every attempt made to discourage the media from the
meeting.
It seems strange that members of the board of control are
so slack or arrogant that they believe they are running a
private little show to which the public is not entitled to know
what is going on. It is about time that the board members
get to know that what they do in their meetings is public
business. and by legislation their meetings are required to
be in public, unless they are discussing two specific topics,
namely, purchase of land or personnel.
Scarborough citizens and taxpayers, we believe, are entitl-
ed to proper government and straight -forward and for-
thright statements. not only by elected representatives• but
also by the officials who are paid by the taxpayers. Our im-
pression is that most of these individuals feel they are
somehow removed from the public, and are directing 'little
kingdoms" all on their own.
The calling of meetings must, under municipal law, be
done in a proper manner, with no subterfuge and deceit. We
suggest that the appropriate people in our local government
sharpen up their sloppy methods and begin to administer
the affairs of the people in a more appropriate manner.
Honour George Glover
The Scarborough Centenary Hospital will be unveiling a
memorial plaque at the opening of their newly renovated
wing in honour of the man who made it possible.
The George I. Glover Ambulatory Care Unit. to be made
official this Thursday, will pernut the outpatient surgery to
be increased from 25 to 39 patients per day.
George Glover was not able to see his project completed.
He died in March following a lengthy illness.
As the need for more beds intensified and the Emergency
Department became over -burdened with scheduled outpa-
tient clinics, it was Glover that devised a way to provide the
working space required to meet both of these outpatient
needs. A year and a half after the first stages of planning.
the Ambulatory Care Unit is completed. In addition to the
increase m the number of patients per day, the unit will pro-
vide facilities for greatly increased diagnostic and treat-
ment clinics which have crowded the Emergency Depart-
ment and other arras in the hospital.
$140.DD0 was raised by the community in 1979 through
private individuals and community organizations, urge
and small.
Mr. Glover was appointed Administrator of Scarborough
Centenary Hosptal in 1%5 and guided the construction
through the completion of the hospital within little more
than four years from incorporation. This is a record time
for any 500 bed hospital in North America
Bob's Notes
The Grey Cup
Well, it's all over and we all knew the West would win that
competition. We didn't get to all the hi -finks downtown but
managed to attend the media lunch for the Miss Grey Cup
contenders at the CIN Tower last week.
After talking to the gorgeous green eyes of Miss Edmonton
we thought she would take the beauty title. But no, the
equally beautiful Miss Argonaut won out. The judges must
have had a tough time - those gals were outstanding!
We lilted the conversation we had with three charming
ladies from Edmonton dresssed in Gay 90's dresses. They
said separation by Alberta is impossible - that the talk we
hear is just media talk' And besides they said, "we love
evervbody".
King Eddie Coming Bade!
At a media conference this week. Trans -Nation Incor-

company, which owns the King Edward Hotel showed off
plans for the SW million renovation of the famous hotel

According to the newly appointed general manager J.
Peter Rickard, the construction of the building is going on
at a great pace and the opening next April 5th. will be an
event to remember.

LAST MEETING
Last week's November Board of Education meeting in-
cluded the meetings of the Board committee.
The Education committee passed a motion to make the
public more aware of the Ontario Ministry's "Trespass to
Property Act, 1980" which was passed by the provincial
government in September, 1980. The new act gives more
backup support to school principals dealing with
trespassers on school property and is designed to decrease
school vandalism and discourage unwanted persons in
schools. Principals will be directed by the Board to call
police when dealing with trespassers who will not leave
when requested by the school. Trespassers will be arrested
by the police. without a warrant.
ATTENDANCE
As of Sept. 198D, there are 33,265 students attending Scar-
borough's Secondary schools. 48.848.5 pupils are enrolled in
public schools. 1979's September enrollment for public
school was 49.728.5.
WORD PROCESSING MACHINES
Property -Finance committee approved a recommenda-
tion by Board officials to purchase word processing
machines at a cast of $500.000. The electronic equipment
will be used in secondary schools which teach clerical
skills. A committee of Business Education teachers which
was set up to investigate the feasibility of using word pro-
cessers, reported that many local businesses are using
word processors in their offices and will be looking for peo-
ple skilled in the use of the equipment -

Just Around The Corner
by Gordon Ashberry
NOT BORING
Last week was a busy one
for uur house. Two new
plays opening, a visit to the
Winter Fair and the Horace
Show and, of course, The
Grey Cup. How can anyone
be bored?
In this column, of course,
we deal only with the two
new plays because they are
in our own neighbourhood.
And while they were both
enjoyable they were, as my
Yorkshire friends would
say, as different as chalk
and cheese.
"SHE STOOPS TO CON.
QUER"
This was the second pro-
duction of the season by
Stage Centre productions
and, as usual, it was
Presented in the truly pro-
fessional manner that has
become their stamp. It has
been said that Garth Allen,
the Artistic Director,
knows only one word and
that word is: `perfection'.
What makes the dif-
ference is the attention to
even the smallest detail.
The casting, the set design,
the costumes and the ac-
ting by every member of
the cast shows the loving
care that has been lavished
on thetion. There
are no ` t parts'. To this
groups of actors, every
character in the play is im-
portant and played so -
I must admit that I en-
joyed the production at
Fairview Library Theatre
much more than the
O'Keefe presentation by an
English company about
three years ago. For one
thing the Canadianized ver-
sions of the accents were of
great assistance when sor-
ting out the lines.
While Oliver Goldsmith
does not write lines quite as
complicted as
Shakespeare, it is 18th cen-
tury English. This means
that the delivery of the
lines must be clean with the
proper inflection or the
beauty of the literature is
lost. Also the humus.
This is a very funny play.
The story is simple as most
period plays are wont to be.
Mistaken identity and a
'lady' adding to the confu-
sion by stooping to pretend
to be a simple barmaid in
order to win the handsome
young man is the gist of the
plot. As in most comedies
the plot is just the excuse
for the fun.
Special mention must be
made of the five servants
who with their absurd, but
quiet. antics, delighted the
audiecice with every en-
trance. They were closely
challenged by Ron Young
as 'Tony Lu mpkin' who
most energetically
enguwered much of the
confusion.
To single out players for
special consideration is un-
fair and particulartly so
with such an excellent cast
of over 15 members. Suf-
fice it to say that John
Simpson, Alan Washbrook,
Denys Jones, Stephen
Cress, Maggie Clark, Judy
Haladay and Rita Jimenez
all acquitted themselves
admirably in the leading
roles.
We must mention the
costumes. They were
beautiful. That applies, not
only to the ladies flowing
gowns, but also to the
gentlemen's suits,
waistcoats, etc. The set
was simple but most at-
tractive and effective.
If you enjoy good theatre,
this is one that should not
be missed. It is a classic,
handled like a classic while
providing an evening of
good entertainment.
"She Stoops To Conquer"
continues at Fairview
Library until Dec. 6th.
There are just a few tickets
available so it would be
wise to call 293-7748 now.
"IS ANYBODY HOME"
This was the other open-
ing night that I attended. It
is an original play by
Steven Brass who co-
produced it with Michael
Grippo.
This play suffers from
over intensity. The actual
Playing time is just about
one hour on the dot. During
that time we find that the
members of the Wilson
family are involved in
alcoholism, narcotics both
as victims and pushers,
breaking and entering,
gambling, rock and roll
music, the inability to com-
municate, unwanted
Pregnancy and the rest of
assorted ills that confront
family life in the 70s.
Every one in the family
had some quality that you
could dislike. Even the
devoted mother as played
by Susan Bliley was as
much to blame as the rest
of them. She did not evoke
sympathy. Greg Osoba as
Allen the white sheep of the
family seemed too cocky to
be unable to cope with
another year at University.
For the rest of them, they
deserved each other.
The error in this play was
that the writer crammed
too much drama into too ht -
tie time. He had at least
another thirty minutes at
this disposal and should
have used them. There was
no humour and no relief
from the intensity of the
situations. As a member of
the audience I felt that I
had been pounded, berated
and bombarded.
During intermission, one
of the
tregoers was
heard to �that she would
have to get herself psyched
up in order to return for the
rest of the play.
What saved this show was
that it was, in fact, very
well written. The situations
were of the cliche variety
with no surprises but even
so they moved smoothly
and the dialogue was
believable. To some, too
close to home perhaps.
The direction by Brian
Glover was skilful and
pointed. Although I felt that
the pace could have been a
trifle slower. This might
have allowed time for bet-
ter development of
characters. The pace and
amount of problems did not
allow for sympathy nor em-
pathy an the part of the
writer or of the viewer.
There was no moral nor
was there anv reasons whv.
According to the flyer, the
purpose of it all was 'to ex-
plore the future of the
modern family'. By
overselling, it missed the
point.
Michael Lambert as
'Harry' the father and
George Willis as his friend
'Murray' are obviously ex-
perienced actors. They car-
ried their parts with
assurance. Susan Dawson
was a believeable `Sharon'
and her depciton of an
overdose victim was too
real to be comfortable.
Jim Kallio was capable as
'Marty' but was not given
the time on-stage to
develop the part. Rick Per-
sich as 'Monkey' suffered
also from under -exposure.
We never really got to
know him.
Just the same it is worth a
visit to Seneca College to
see this show written and
produced by two of their
students. It may bother you
somewhat but if you are
aware of the problems con-
fronting young people and
their parents. it will mirror
many of your fears. Alas it
is all too true.

tinues at Seneca until Nov.
29th. Call 491-Wn for ticket
information.

ON YOUR TOES: The se-
cond presentation of The
National Ballet's Fall
Season is an evening of
three one -act ballets.
The first is Les Patineurs,
a charming representation
of skaters enjoying an out-
door revel au fin de siecle.
The music is that of
Meyerbeer as arranged by
Constant Lambert when he
was only 32. Lambert's age
is important in any assess-
ment of Les Patineurs
because the work is filled
with youthful vigor
tempered by the discipline
of maturity.
Although we shall pro-
bably never know for cer-
tain, we've always felt that
the choreography of Sir
Frederick Ashton was
rather more influenced by
Lambert's arrangements
than vice versa. Whatever,
it remains that Les
Patineurs has become an
enduring favourite and The
National does it full justice.
Unfortunately, we do not
have the space to do it full
justice in return since we
are assessing three works.
However, we must single
out young David Roxander
as the Blue Skater. The role
might almost have been
created for him.
Mr. Roxander is. to say
the least, diminutive in
stature but his lack of
height for once serves him
well as it allows him to be
the human embodiment of
a banty rooster as he rules
the rink with his superb
. 26, 1960
s World
glacial acrobatics. He
leaps, spins and glissades
with a cheerful insouciance
that in anyone else would
be irritating but in him is
lovably charming.
One must mention, as
well, his towering loft. Un-
forturately it's not always
fully appreciated because
of his shortness. It looks
less impressive sometimes
than, in fact, it is. But,
when we saw him, he must
have done something to
psyche himself before the
performance because his
leaps were almost ex-
plosive in vigour. In fact,
our companion of the even-
ing submits that he should
now be called D.K.W.. der
klein wunder. We could not
agree more. Well done Mr.
Roxander!
The second work of the
evening was the newly
commissioned ballet
Newcomers by Brian Mac-
donald. If imitation is the
sincerest form of flattery,
then Agnes DeMille must
surely be basking in the
glow of Mr. Macdonald's
apparently unabashed
adoration of the kind of
choreography she created
in 1943 for Oklahoma!
However, Miss DeMille
created her dances for the
superb scores of Richard
Rodgers. Mr. Macdonald
has chosen to limp along
with the scones of Prevost,
Freedman, Weimweig and
Klein.
Now, this tin eared
auditor is prepared to ad-

i
mit that the works chosen
have some musical value. .
in the concert hall. But, we
will not be convinced that
they have any place in the
world of ballet. (We should
and do exclude those of
Weinzweig.) Dogged in
devotion to the execrable
Schoenberg, idolatrous in
imitation of Ibert, the
scores confuse the ear and
distract the eye from the
strong choreography.
Mind you, we also remain
unconvinced of the talent of
Mr. M. who still seems to
be coasting on My Fur
Lady of long gone yore.
Still, the strength of his
choreography must be
acknowledged even though
it seems notably lacking in
vigour. Oh, the hell with it!
Let's lapse into the ver-
nacular.
To compare the
-choreography of Brian
Macdonald with say,
Frederick Ashton or evert,
James Kudelka is to com-
pare Gene Kelly with Fred
Astaire or Bob Fosse with
the late Gower Champion.
It is photographically filled
with sound and fury signi-
fying nothing except an-
ticipation followed by
disappointed boredom.
Only in the third move-
ment does the ballet move
the audience (and isn't that
still the prime considera-
tion') and, one suspects
because of faint famnilian-
ty. It's drawn from Weinz-
weig's The Red Ear Of
Corn which was performed
better than 30 years ago by
the local Volkoff Ballet.
The quartet of Mary Jago,
Veronica Tenruant, Clinton
Rothwell and Raymond
Smith bear the principal
burden of the ballet and
they do night well. One is
particularly taken by the
heroism of Mr. Rothwell
and the thistledown
strength of Veronica Ten-
nant. But, we were par-
ticularly arrested by
Hazaros Surmueyan as an
aging landbreaker tiring
after an exhausting dance
of exhilaration with his
helpmeet. So convincing
was he that we found
ourself actually alarm
for him at one point.
It might be that Th
Newcomers gets better
with repeated viewings.
Certainly, it has to be said
that so much is happening
that one can always expect
to see on a repeat visit
something that was missed
the first time experienced.
One is told that the first
night audience for Swan
Lake didn't particularly
like it and, getting back to
Agnes DeMille, Brooks
Atkinson didn't like
Oklahoma!
So, we commend
Newcomers to you in the
hope and possible expecta-
tion that you will enjoy it.
We didn't .. at least, not
completely.
Mad Shadows was the
final offering of the even-
ing. This is a powerful work
and we found ourself
wishing it had been the first
work presented - sort of
like an entree with Les
Patineurs presented last,
like a dessert. So powerful
is Mad Shadows that one
feels an emotional exhaus-
tion on leaving the theatre.
The score by Andre
Gagnon is dramatically
melodic and melodically
dramatic and the
choreography of Ann Dit-
chburn is sexual to the
point d eroticissm.
Veronica Tennant nicely
interpolated the rejection
at sex and the adolescent
desire for it while Mary
Jago as her sexually
deprived widowed Mother
exuded an almost palpable
call for sexual gratification
en
evwhile resisting the
almost incestuous pawings
of her young son as danced
by Raymond Smith. But
she cannot and does not
resist the overtures of Clin-
ton Rothwell as the brutish
laver Lanz. And, one should
not forget the performance
of James Kudelka as the
blind boy desperate for any
kind of love.
The choreography is such
that attention is prime to
the performance of the
widow and the lover. The

The becomes in fact almost an
extension of the penis.
Now, we are not a dance
director. There might be a
good reason for putting
Clinton Rothwell in back to
back strenous perfor-
mances. But, it seemed to
us that he was notably tir-
ing toward the conclusion
of the work. This was quite
noticeable in one of the ad-
mittedly difficult overhead
lifts when his arms were
seen to be trembling under
the strain.
Still, it has to be admitted
that we were trembling
with emotion at that point
so perhaps our acuity was
working overtime. We
would not for the world sug-
gest that Mr. Rothwell has
ever delivered less than his
best.
And nether has the Na-
tional. If we have seemed
too severe, it's only
because of our abiding af-
fection for this company
which we have come to
regard almost as our own.
WHAT A NIGHT: It
started out quite pleasant-
ly. Rob Williams of Global
Television invited us to a
reception at the Plaza II to
meet Peita Toppano and
Barry Quinn who star in
the smash Australian
series Caged Women which
is seen over Global.
They are a perfectly char-
ming couple and their pro-
motional tour is almost cer
tain to intensify viewer
dedication to the series.
We had a chance to talk to
jovial Al Dubin also of
Global and accepted his in-
vitation to attend last
nights meeting at the
Variety Club of The Sons Of
The Desert. Lumpy
oatmeal indeed!
Afterward, we nipped
along to the University
Theatre for the premiere of
Heaven's Gate. By now,
you'll have read elsewhere
that it's strictly terlet city.
All we can add is that
Michael Cimino was
luckier that he deserved to
be with The Deer Hunter.
Clearly he has forgotten
the words of the best writer
of them all .. "the play's
the thing"! Superb
photography, fine acting
and excellent acting cannot
make an audience forget
the pain of aching buttocks
or bored minds.
After Heaven's Gate, we
travelled up to Cooper's, a
new club on Yonge Street
just north of St. Clair on the
West side. It's a little bit of
alright .. all glass, bronze
and autumnal browns in
decor. Good scud system
for dancing and live music
soon to be on the scene.
Penny East tells us that it's
also available for private
parties. If you've been ex.
periencing difficulty fin.
ding a good spot for a
Christmas party, You could
do worse than to call
Coopers. Now, if only that
one waitress, the one with
the great had, could be told
not to chew gum.. or, at
least, to close her mouth
while chewing!
HOLIDAY DELIGHT:
Panto seems to have disap.
peared from the Toronto
Christmas scene but
Honest Ed Mirvish has
come up with something
just as good for kids.
Starting yesterday, Pinoc-
chio featuring 102 life sized
marionettes has returned
to the Royal Alex after an
absence of 5 years. When it
Played here in 1975, it sold
out completely and there's
little reason to suppose that
this engagement will prove
to be any different.
It runs until December 6th
and all performances are
during the day. Showtimes
are 1:30 p.m. on Tuesdays
and Wednesdays and 10:30
a.m. & 1:30 p.m. on
Thursdays through Satur-
days. Good show and as
much fun for adults as it is
for children. Apparently
there are discounts for
groups over 10. Call
593-4225.
UPCOMING: Briefly.. A
concert this Sunday at
Massey Hall by the Shev-
chenko Musical Ensemble
with Leon Bibb and Salome
Bey. Proceeds go toward
the Paul Robeson Com-
memorative Committee to
purchase a row of seats in
the new Massey Hall.
The East Side Players
present Bedroom Farce by
Alan Aychbourn starting
tomorrow at the Tod-
morden Mill Theatre.
Opening night audience is
invited to join the cast and
production crew at a wine
and cheese party following
the performance. I could be
wrong but you probably
stand a good chance of
meeting CKEY's popular
morning newsman Bob
Payne.
You might have missed
the news that the Genie
Awards presentation will
be held next March 12th at
the Royal Alec. Our thanks
to Maria Topolovich for
sending along the informa-
tion and we look forward to
seeing her at the awards.
EXEUNT: As usual we're
running last - something
his horses never did - but
we must mention the only
time we met the late Coon
Smythe.
It was at the Royal Alec
for a performance of Ain't
Misbehavin'. Anne and Ed
Mirvish introduced me to
him and, of course, we
saluted. Old habits die hard
however and we were half
way through a naval salute
before reahzing the gaffe.
Trying to modify it only
resulted in a gesture that
we suppose must have look-
ed rather like that of a
nearsighted hippie hitting
his temple to cure
migraine!
With only the slightest
trace of a twinkle in those
startlingly blue eyes, the
major barked out "What
the hell is that supposed to
be,..
One topes that St. Peter
has saluted him properly.
Rest well, warrior, rest
well!

Knit & Chat
By May E. MacLean
In today's world we take a
lot of things for granted,
but have you ever stopped
to think who or how the zip-
per fastening came into be-
ing?
In 1891 Whitcomb L. Jud-
son a portly engineer was
having problems bending
over to fasten his shoes, so
he invented a device which
enabled him to fasten them
while sitting comfortably.
This first prototype was ac-
tually a series of hooks and
eyes which closed
mechanically and because
it was rather crude, was
not an immediate success.
However, an attorney,
Lewis Walker saw tremen-
dous potential in Judson's
idea and founded a com-
pany and over the years a
great many improvements
have been made to the
original zipper.
At first, zipper teeth were
stamped from metal and
then clamped to the zipper
tape. As you will agree, the
metal teeth made by this
process would be rough and
tended to jam the zipper or
separate from the tape. _
In the 19Ci0s die-cast zip-
pers were introduced. By
this method the metal teeth
are molded directly onto
the zipper tape, making it
almost impossible for them
to jam or to become loose.
The edges of the o
teeth am rounded so that
they interlock easily and
smoothly.
At the same time, the
possibility of a coil zipper
was being researched in
Europe. and the first zipper
made consisted of two in-
terlocking brass coils.
However, these coils could
easily become bent and out
of shape, making it im-
possible to operate the zip-
per. It wasn't until after the
discovery of flexible syn-
tbetics, that a viable coil
zipper could be designed,
and have been marketed
since the early mos.
Developments in
technology have improved
the quality and perfor-
mance of zippers, plus the
fact that coil zippers are
made of polyester or nylon
coil attached to polyester
or polyester blend tapes
which are now dyed in all
the fashionable shades that
a dressmaker could wish.
The metal zipper, more
suitable for rugged wear
such as jeans and work
clothes, has the metal teeth
which have been die-cast
onto, or stamped out and
clamped to cotton or cotton
blend tapes.
The next time you fasten a
zipper, stop a minute and
remember that nearly 90
years has gone into the in-
venting and researching of
the product that we know
today.
Soon we will be needing
these knitted hats and
scarves now that Fall is
almost here. Quickly and

Grow House Plants
Growing houseplants
under artificial light opens
up a new world of garden-
ing for hobbyists, says Bob
Fleming, Ontario Ministry
Of Agriculture and Food
horticulturist.
During the dull, short
days of winter, many
houseplants suffer from
lack of natural light. Using
artificial light, home
gardeners can maintain
plant growth.
Although artificial light is
no match for natural
sunlight, many common
houseplants will grow suc-
cessfully with 12 to 16 hours
of artificial light daily.
For light gardens, Mr.
Fleming recommends
flourescent lamps. They
are more economical than
conventional incandescent
bulbs because they provide
more illumination per watt
of electricity used.
Most flourescent lamps
provide a good spectrum of
light, and are also cooler
than incandescent bubls.
There are a variety of
fluorescent tubes designed
for plant growing, but Mr.
Fleming says plain "cool
white" tubes are satisfac-
tory for most home
gardeners.
"The better-known
houseplants such as
philodendrons, African
violets, German ivy,
begonias, pothos and scin-
dapsus will grow well
PP
under artificial light,'. he
says.
Lights should be set about
0.3 metres ( one foot)
directly above the plants
for maximum light. Raise
the light as plants grow in
height.
Zoo Open
All Winter
While some attractions
are forced to close during
the winter months the zoo
is opens year-round, closing
only on Dec. 24 and 25.
"Many people have a
misconception about the
zoo in the winter," Director
T.W. "Tommy„ Thompson
explains. "Most of the
animals are still on
display, in fact many of our
inhabitants from tropical
countries have become ac-
climatized to our Canadian
winters and some even en-
joy a romp in the snow..'
"Needless to say, animals
like our polar bears are
overjoyed to see winter's
arrival and one can spend
hours watching them div-
ing, sliding and playing
with huge blocks of ice,,,
said Thompson.
The zoo is located at
Highway 401 at
MeadoWvale Road. Gates
open at 10 a.m. and close at
4:30 p.m. with the last ad-
missiolm at 3:30 p.m.

"Protein Machines," an
exhibit describing how
ruminant animals convert
roughage to human food,
will be a feature of the
Royal Agricultural Winter
Fair in Toronto from Nov.
13 to 22.
Sponsored and set up by
the University of Guelph,
the display will be located
downstairs in the East An-
nex, near the Royal's of -
Through light-hearted,
but informative cartoons,
the exhibit explains how
ruminants eat roughage
such as grass, straw and
corn stalks and convert it
to protein that man can
utilize.
The exhibit introduces the
microbes that live in the
rumen and help break
down the cellulose, and
describes how the
microbes and the
ruminants have a working
partnership.
It also describes in brief
some of the research in
progress on ruminant
animals at the University
of Guelph.

buy your tickets at the box-
office.
ADVANCE WARNING
Do not miss the traditional
Christmas Pantomime at
Playhouse 66 from Dec. 4th
to 13th with matinees on the
7th and 13th.
It will be presented by
Scarborough Theatre
Guild. It's their 8th panto
you know, and as always it
will be a very funny show.
Most important bring the
kids. A pantomime with
very few children in the au-
dience is only half as good
fun as it should be. O yes it
is.
The whole family will en-
joy watching and par-
ticipating. But reserve now
for this will be a sell-out for
sure. The name is
"ROBINSON CRL'SOE".
For reservations call
438-1053 and tell them I sent
you.
BETTER HURRY
Only a few days left in the
month to catch the Budd
Watson exhibit of
photographs of Canadian
landscapes. They are on
view at Scarborough Civic
Centre and the show
features selections from
his "MY CANADA" port-
folio.
A truly beautiful show. In
addition, prints by
members of the two Scar-
borough Camera Clubs are
on view.

How To SAVE ENERGY
ON M ROADe
Your energy is valuable, but it's easy
to save. Here are some tips to help
all drivers stop wasting our valuable
energy.
1. Don't speed. Staying below 90 kph
uses about 20 per cent less fuel
than speeding at 110 kph.
2. Accelerate smoothly and steadily.
Sudden starts force too much
fuel into the engine, fuel that just
gets wasted instead of being
burned efficiently.
3. Brake slowly and evenly. Antici-
pate stops and ease up on the
accelerator earlier.
4. Using the recommended octane
grade for your car, avoiding un-
necessary idling and using an
automatically timed block heater
in winter are other easy ways
to cut down on energy use...
and cost

conservation in the home or in the

is that is being dammed is called the Humber River. At

Report From Queen's Park By George Ashe M.P.P.
On Nov. 3, 1980, the Ontario Ministry of Transportation
and Communications released the "Motor Vehicle Accident
Report, 1979". This report contains a very important
message, "despite impovements to motor vehicles, upgrad-
ed laws and regulations and their strict enforcement, ac-
cidents continue to increase in Ontario."
The main factor throughout the investigations relates to
"driver errors" which contributes to far too many ac-
cidents on Ontario roads and highways.
Another factor cited in many of the accident reports was
that of inattention caused by drinking and driving. Of the
639 drivers involved in fatal accidents in 1979, 262 were im-
paired and 113 had been drinking.
Comparative statistics indicate that the number of traffic
fatalities in 1979 increased 7.6% over those in 1978. There
was also an increase in the number of traffic injuries over
the previous year (6.7% increase). In total, 1,560 people
have died in traffic tragedies in 1979. But the responsibility
for highway saftey must be placed on the motorist himself.
Increases in the number of traffic deaths and injuries can
only be partially attributed to the increasing number of
licensed drivers and registered vehicles. Based on 1979
statistics, 96% of all vehicles involved in accidents showed
village. All of the buildings are genuine and are brought
from parts of Ontario. Already there are 36 structures. The
,grade seven students are looking forward to their next trip.
-Tarne Whiteley, Grade 7 to 1.
Next Advisory Committee Meeting will be held on Tues.
Dec. 2nd at 7 p.m.
TOWN OF PICKERING SOCCER CLUB
A reminder that the Annual General Meeting will be held
at 2 p.m. on Nov. 30th at the East Shore Community Centre.
Please plan to attend this important meeting as pro-
ceedings include the election of a new executive. The Chub
desperately needs some new faces and ideas on the ex-
ecutive. Everyone is welcome! A free babysitting service
will be provided at the East Shore Community Centre for
your convenience. Elections for the Executive of the
Ladies' Auxiliary will take place during the course of the
Annual General Meeting mentioned above. Any ladies in-
terested in becoming part of the Auxiliary are urged to at -
ted.
CROSS COUNTRY SKI WORKSHOP
The Pickering Dept. of Parks and Recreation, in conjunc-
tion with the Ontario Ski Council is holding a free cross-
country ski workshop on Wed. Nov. 26. The workshop at
Duunbarton High School from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. is designed
for everyone from the novice stage to 6rperts. It will stress
such things as the proper equipment and waxing skis. For
further udormatioo on the free wooksiwp, contact Fred
Scholl at 683-2760, ext 25.
no apparent mechanical defect and 83% of all drivers in-
volved were identified as "normal."
Recently, the Government has required that higher stan-
dards be met by manufacturers of motor vehicles to be
driven on Ontario roads. These improvements include:
seat belts; door locks; front-end impact absorption; saftey
glass; dashboard padding and more reliable tires.
The seat belt legislation and lower speed limits introduc-
ed in 1976 have been identified as major contributing fac-
tors in reducing the "overall" number of traffic -related
deaths in Ontario. The statistics indicate that traffic
fatalities were 13.3% lower in 1979 than in 1975 when 1800
people died on Ontario highways.
Another focus to encourage responsible driving habits is
through education and awareness programs. The Ministry
of Transportation amd Communications annually
distributes in excess od six million pieces of safety material
to schools, police departments, safety organizations and in-
Slividuals who are interested in improving their driving
skills.
Pre-school, public and separate schools and secondary
schools are also sent literature and teaching aids for driv-
ing safety. The safe driving publications are also available
to companies within the Province operating defensive dnv-
ing courses for their employees. And did you know that the
Ministry of Transportation and Communications operates a
"road reporting service" between November and the end of
March? Over onequarter of a million enquiries are
directed to the service annually (telephone 248-3561).
The goal of the preceeding safety programs is to appeal to
the logic of those individuals driving motor vehicles and to
assist them in motoring in maximum safety.
Regardless of the safety measures taken by the Provin-
cial and Federal Governments, companies or educational
institutions, the final responsibility rests on the individual
motorist. As drivers we must accept this responsibility and
operate our vehicles safely, courteously and attentively.
This collective effort will assist in reducing or preventing
the thousands of unnecessary traffic tragedies which occur
each year in Ontario.
