Trustee Appointments
Made

McLean, Jill Hamilton and
Mike Nicholson have been
appointed to the committee
to evaluate the board com-

blend its four standing
committees (Employee

other boards with regar-
ding to appointing a stu-
dent trustee was passed by

December so that the
financial implications of
their recommendations
may be considered in the
1996 budget deliberations.
Trustees Request Review
The Durham Board of
Education will request that
the Ministry of Finance
conduct a review of the
assessment equalization
factors for Durham Board
municipalities. The factors
are set for a 4 year period
and are now in their second
year of implementation.
The difference in the fac-
tors results in the great
variance in local mill rate
which determine local tax
increases. The board will
ask the ministry to forward
the results of its review in
time for use during the 1996
budget deliberations.

Don't Forget To Vote
by Bob Watson
The democratic system we have in our country requires
that each Canadian citizen exercises his or her right and
votes for the representative whom you consider the best
person to represent you in the government.
Some people asked on radio about how they are going to
vote have said they are not going to vote. That presents a
break in the democratic system. Everyone should vote -
right after you have analyzed the individuals who are runn-
ing for the position of M.P.P. in your area. You should
decide which one you should give the "X" to and do it.
The Biggest Issue
by Bob Watson
In our opinion the biggest issue is how the three parties are
going to handle the public's tax money when they get
elected. We haven't had a good financial handling govern-
ment for a long time.
Let's get more private enterprise operators doing jobs for
the government - it is usually cheaper for the taxpayers.
Cutting back on grants being dished out to groups is a
priority for the next provincial government. Less govern-
ment employees is essential in the cost-cutting procedure.
Perhaps the Mayor of Mississauga. who has balanced that
city government's fiances for years, cold loan her advice to
Queen's Park and get our provincial finances in order!

Preventing a Disaster with Frozen
by M.H. Purnu
Picture this scenario, It's a
cold, wintry day and the
weather has been relentless for
the past few days. you've just
come hack to your house after
a week's vacation (hopefully
somewhere warm and sunm!)
only to discover your pipes
have frozen. burst and flooded
your house.
four only consolation is that
you think your home insurance
will pay for the damage. That's
not necessarily so.
"If you have been away for
more than four consecutive days
and you did not make arrange-
ments for someone to check your
home daily. most standard home
policies will net aver the dam-
age resulting from frozen pipes."
says Brian Speirs, a home claims
expertwith The Co-operators. " In
water pipes) then you can In
and help the thawing pricers by
directing the heat from a hair-
dryer on the pipe for 10-15
minutes. Never use a torch to
warm up the pipes as this could
result in settine the house on fire.
Just because your pipes are
frozen docs not mean that they
will burst. But it's a risk you
might not want to take oa it's
better to call a plumber it the
pipe doesn't thaw by itself.
How can you prevent your
pipes from freezing'
There are usually two factors
at work when pipes freeze - a
combination of very cold
weather for a number of days
and pipes that are installed tow
close to the outside wall with
little or no insulation.
Water Pipes
While there is not much you
can do about the weather condi-
tions, you can insulate between
Pipes and outside walls which
prevents cold air from getting to
the pipes and lessens the likeli-
hood of freezing. Sometimes it
requires work on both the inside
and outside. For example, if the
mortar in the brickwork has
loosened or cracks have
developed, it doesn't take a big
crack for cold air to get in and
if the pipes are nearby, they can
freeze more easily.
While it's not a good idea for
the long run, you could keep
both water taps dripping when
a cold spell hits.
If the worst happens...
and your house is flooding
due to a burst pipe, what should
winter. you must ensure someone
enters the premises daily to check
the heating."
What to do if your pipes Most People
are frozen Do'
you do:'
"As a home policyholder, no
matter which insurance com-
pany you are with, you have
certain responsibilities to min-
imize the damage as much as
you can," says Speirs. "For ex-
ample, shut off the water source
and try to remove your posses-
sions from the flooded area.
Next, call your insurance repre-
sentative and then will advise
you on how to proceed from
there."
Once there is water damage,
these claims can get ver expen-
sive and run upwards of $2,(XX)
per claim. Drying items out will
help minimize damage. Any-
thing that you can do will bene-
fit both parties in the long run
to help keep down the cost of
insurance.

Challenge: Cut Down On Pesticide Use
Ontario's pest control in-
dustry has been challenged
to reduce its use of
pesticides and work with
public health to help people
battle cockroaches without
creating a "chemical
soup- in their homes.
"Public health and the in-
dustry both know from
years of experience that
the traditional reliance on
pesticides isn't working.
Thousands- of people are us-
ing or being subjected to
pesticides and not getting
rid of roaches," North
York's Environmental
Health Director Fred Ruf
told the annual conference
of the Ontario Pest Control
Association in Toronto.
In the past two years.
North York Public Health
has received more calls
and letters from people
-pleading for our interven-
tion to prevent treatment of
residences than ever
before. That unheard of ten
years ago," said Ruf.
"what about the concern
for what increasingly is
referred to as this chemical
soup. Is it surprising that
people are concerned about
adding known toxics to
their homes? People know
with absolute certainty
that pesticides are a toxic -
they are designed to kill.
You can't dress that up any
other way," Ruf told
delegates.
When you consider apart-
ments account for more
than 50% of dwellings in
North York, Ruf said. then
you begin to appreciate the
magnitude of the problem
here and across Metro
Toronto for apartment
dwellers who are caught in
a revolving door syndrome
of spraying but not getting
rid of roaches.
-'We're running as fast as
we can and never quite cat-
ching up. And now people
are telling us they want
new non -chemical solu-
tions." said Ruf.
The public health official
challenged the industry to
form partnerships with
public health, tenants,
landlords and the Ontario
Environment Ministry to
adopt Integrated Pest
Management and reduce
reliance on pesticides.
North York is implemen-
ting a new city wide policy
to reduce pesticide use in
residential, commercial
and government buildings

cerned about the needless
risk to our employees who

An internally initiated in-

Metro Separate School News
On Apr. 19 the
Metropolitan Separate
School Board approved a
1995 budget of $704.2
million. As a result, there
will be a 2% increase in the
residential and commer-
cial mill rates for the 1995
calendar year. The in-
crease means that a
Catholic ratepayer with a
home assessed at $5,000
will pay an additional $25 in
educational taxes in 1995.
The $8.8 million in
revenue generated by the
increase will make up for
revenue lost because of
property tax defaults and
successful tax appeals and
will be used exclusively to
supplement the normal
budget provisions for
classroom Instructional
supplies and equipment•
and school maintenance
and repairs.
While the budget expen-
ditures total $714.2 million,
the board's operating ex-
penditures total $692
million, which is $10.6
million less than 1994 ac-
taul expenditures. The dif-
ference of $11.9 million
dollars will be used to
retire the 1994 deficit of $6.7
million and the 1995 install-
ment of the 1993 deficit of
$5.1 million. The final in-
stallment of the 1993 deficit
4$5.1 mh:lionl will be paid
in 1996.
Over the course of the
budget process, every ef-
fort was made to reduce
operating expenditures
without jeopardizing the
quality of the educational
servies that we provide.
Most of the reductions will
affect administrative and
support services, equip-
ment and staff training.
They include: reduction of
178 staff positions $3.5
million; reduction of non -
salary departmental
budgets by 10% - $1.2
million: reduction of
facilities maintenance
budgets by 10% - $.8
million; reduction of
caretaking supplies budget
by 10% - $.9 million; and
reduction of inser-
vice professional develop-
ment budgets $.2 million.

Community Sports Notes
Scarborough News Receives Award
BV Muriel Warden
Swim Ontario presented
many awards on May 6th to
various friends and sup-
porters of swimming
across the province.
Scarborough Swim Club
nominated the Scar-
borough, North York News
and Pickering Post
publishers, Irene and Bob
Watson. for the constant
sports coverage enjoyed by
the Swim Club and its
members.
Irene and Bob were
presented with a distinc-
tive Swim Ontario plaque
by veteran Toronto Sun
sports writer George
Gross. George has been a
long time supporter of
aquatic sports in Canada.
He had very complimen-
tary words for our local
publishers and their "good
news" neighbourhood
paper.
The Watsons enjoyed a
lovely dinner in the com-
pany of myself and 300
other patrons of Swim On-
tario and the Ontario
Aquatic Hall of Fame at
the Novotel MIssissauga
Hotel.
Other Scarborough reci-
pients of an award were
Horst Tietzel, and Kirston
Harwood. Horst was
honoured for his outstan-
ding contributions to com-
petitive swimming for
many years in the field of
officiating. He is a Master
Official who began at the

The place that millions of Canadians will never forget
Paul Berto, an advertising
executive in Toronto, holds
The Roval Conservatory
Music ( RCM) responsible
for his first kiss. At the ten-
der age of three. Paul began
piano lessons at The RCM
and continued with the same
teacher until he was 16 years
old. Paul remembers feeling
nervous before the yearly pi-
ano exams but his greatest
attack of nerves occurred at
age eleven while he was
practicing Bach for the an-
nual recital. "It was a duet
with Jennifer, the cutest girl
in my group," he recalls.
"Just as we had finished the
piece she leaned over and
kissed me. Suddenly, having
to practice the piano for an
hour everyday didn't seem
like such a chore anymore."
Catherine Brvden, a li-
brarian from Lvnden. On-
tario also has fond memories
of The Roval Conservatory
of Music. She distinctly re-
members her piano exam
that took place over thirty
years ago. She recalls how
nervous she was and how
small she felt — her feet
could hardly reach the ped-
als on the piano. "How im-
pressed 1 was that the exam-
iner didn't even have a book
of music in front of him; he
just sat solemnly with his
hands in his lap listening to
me play. Maybe if I make
mistakes he won't notice
without the music book",
she remembers thinking. It
was not until years later,
grown-up and an accom-
plished piano teacher. Cath-
erine realized that he would
have known the familiar
pieces of The RCM syllabus
by heart.
Paul and Catherine's vivid
memories of The Royal
Conservatory of Music are
by no means unique. In op-
eration for over a century,
The RCM has touched the
lives of over three million Ca-
nadians and continues to reach
over 250,000 people across
North America each year.
An independent, non-
profit institution that re-
ceives less than one percent
of its funding from govern-
ment sources, The RCM has
an internationally acclaimed
examination system that op-
erates in 300 centres across
North America reaching
some 100,0()0 music exam
candidates each year. Thou-
sands of teachers across
Canada use music books and
RCM authored publications
which form the core of The
RCM syllabus. The materi-
als are published exclusively
by The Frederick Harris
Music Company, The
RCM's publisher for the
past 80 years. Through its
schools, its international Ex-
amination System and music
publications, The RCM fos-
ters a love of music in stu-
dents of all ages.
Unfortunately. over the
years. The RCM has lost
contact with students like
Paul and Catherine. To bring
together all Canadians
whose lives have been
touched by The RCM, the
Conservatory is launching a
campaign asking everyone
who was involved in any of
The RCM's programs to
give them a call. Famous
RCM alumni — Canadian
composer and twelve time
Grammy winner David Fos-
ter, legendary actor and per-
former Robert Goulet, and
renowned Canadian soprano
Lois Marshall — have do-
nated their time to assist The
RCM in this campaign.
They are encouraging all
people whose lives have
been touched by The RCM
to contact the Conservatory
to have their names in-
scribed in an Historic Regis-

form part of a permanent

Hongkong Bank Tops Donation In Chinese Culture Centre Project
The year of the pig is
definitely a good year for
the Chinese Cultural Cen-
tre of Greater Toronto. At a
news conference at the
downtown Toronto Man-
darin Club, Brian Robert-
son, Chief Operating Of-
ficer of Hongkong Bank of
Canada handed Dr. Ming -
Tat Cheung, chairman of
the board of the Chinese
Cultural Centre, a giant
piggy bank containing a
$250,000 cheque.
This donation pledge is the
biggest amount received to
date from the private sec-
tor by the cultural centre
since its fundraising effort
launched in April 1994.
Under the agreement, the
Chinese Cultural Centre of
Greater Toronto will
receive from the bank
$250,000 over the next five
years. This donation pledge
makes Hongkong Bank the
leading corporate sponsor
in the $15 million cultural
project.
"The Asian market is one
of the key factors con-
tributing to the success of
Hongkong Bank of
Canada," said Mr. Robert-
son. "We treasure our rela-
tionship with the very
vibrant Chinese communi-
ty and are delighted to sup-
port the creation of the
Chinese Cultural Centre of
Greater Toronto.This
facility will provide
Chinese Canadians living
in the Greater Toronto area
with an opportunity to con-
tinue to experience and en-
joy their cultural activities
with the mainstream com-
muni ty. "

Young animals learn important life
skills through playful activities
M
,ving intently through the
tall grass, txxdy held low to
the ground, Ie'gs taut and
ready to rush, an energetic Timber
Wolf pup stalks his sleeping; father's
tail.
Tile pup choose% his moxnent to
pounce, but father wolf isn't napping
as deeply as he seemed. He has been
keeping a half-closed but watchful
eve on the pups. Judging just the right
instant to flick his tail to the side,
father watches as the young hunter
bites dust instead of prey.
Father wolf treats himself to a low
snort as the youngster is then
ambushed by his sister who is play-
ing her own hunter -and -prey game.
You can plainly see preparation
for survival as an adult in the play of
young animals. The wolf pups prac-
tice physical skills and sharpen spa-
tial perceptions they will need when
they must feed their own offspring.
Just as young predators play hunt -
and -attack games, young prey ani-
mals play at run-and-doolge-and-leap.
Elk fawns, for instance, join
in mock chases during which they
practice alarm signals or suddenly
stop and stand motionless.
Whether an animal hunts or is
hunted, playing these games helps the
young to become more successful
adults. Play helps to produce individ-
uals who have developed the skills to
survive and reproduce, thus assuring
a future for the species.
Play usually mirrors an animal's
own situation in nature. The gambol-
ing of Bighorn Iambs may help them
acquire the strength and balance ne-
e sary for life on steep slopes. As
well, young Bighorn rams knock
heads in rehearsal for the mating bat-
tles to come.
Play seems to provide safe oppor-
tunities for young animals to inte-
grate themselves into their communi-
ties. Significantly, Rhesus, Monkeys
who grow up without playmates
become antisocial and aggressive.
It is not always easy for humans
to recognize play in another species.
Fish, reptiles, insects and wild birds
do not seem to play, though crows
and ravens can occasionally be seen
performing aerobatics apparently just
for the fun of it.
Itmay be, however, that these
types of animals play in ways we can-
not comprehend. Still, it's nice to
think that even the rigours of
survival in nature leave all
animals a little time for fun. v+Ki

B%ll Watt's Worlds
ON YOt'R TOES
It has been written that
youth is too good to be
wasted upon the young. We
make it bold enough to sug-
gest that Profkofiev's
ballet, Cinderella is also
too good for full apprecia-
tion by young audiences.
This, after seeing the Na-
tional Ballet's premiere of
it at The O'Keefe.
Clearly the National is
courting the youngsters - a
7.30 opening curtain - and
clearly most of them enjoy
it. And, w•hy not? It's a
wondrous work filled with
colourful characters and
magical stagecraft. As
well, the choreography of
Ben Stevenson is, for the
most part, just pedestrian
enough to be enjoyed if not
always appreciated. So, en
fin, they enjoy what would
seem to be a glorified
British panto.
For adults. however.
there is also the Prokofiev
score: one filled with the
minor chords that reflect
characterization rather
more than is the case with
most ballet scores. While
the children are enjoying
panto. the adults are ap-
preciating the unfolding of
a stony that's actually quite
deep in its exposition of
cruelty relieved only by the
happenstance of beauty.
Enough' Were becoming
repetitious and too
weighty. Whether for
adults or for children, this
Cinderella is well worth
custom.
On the evening we saw it.
the title role was danced by
Martine Lamy in manner
neither too sweet nor too
strong. This Cinderella is
spunky but still subject to
sadness until true hap-
piness
appiness is found with her
handsome prince.
Rex Harrison danced the
latter role in manner born
to it. He is one of the hand-
somest men in the world of
ballet and when he smiles
he quite dazzles. Oh yes. he
dances well, too. One
almost forgets that, in ad-
miration of his full and
regal physicality.
Greta Hodgkinson, too.
lights up the stage with her
piquant charm as the Fairy
Godmother while Philip
Iau continues to be all rub-
ber acrobatics as the
Prince's jester.
In true panto style, the
two ugly stepsisters are
danced by men. Robert
Conn and Philippe Dubuc
in the roles can well be con-
sidered the new Frick and
Frack. Of course• only
adults could be aware of
that.
So there it is. Cinderella is
a pleasantly glorious ex-
perience for children and a
stimulating one for adults.
We love it.
ON THF. WALL.
The late Orson Welles pro-
duced a motion picture ver-
sion of Macbeth on the old
Republic back lot in the
unheard of time of just 21
days. When reviewing it,
life magazine commented
tgdhat "it was made in 21
days...and looks like it."
Close to half a centun• later
it's now considered a fine
work of cinema art.
Buffy Sainte -Marie is
presenting her exhibition
"Painting With Light" at
179 John St. until May 21st
and Your Column was
there for the opening recep-
tion. As expected, the
worms proudly reflect her
aboriginal heritage. Quite
unexpected is that they're
digitally produced by com-
puter. in truth, they "look
like it".
That's not intended as a
dismissal. Granted their
electronic delivery can't be
hidden -too oxymoronicall•
perfect- but there's not
G.I.G.O. syridrome here.
The intention, the soul of
the artist glows through in
vibrant tones and expres-
sion that seamlessly meld
the tortured intellect of an
Aubrey Beardsley and the
quixotic psyche of a
Salvador Dah.
Miss Sainte -Marie has
proven herself to be a fine
graphic artist. Arid it won't
take four decades for the
world to realize it.
OVER THE WALL.
The number of theatrical
awards being nominated
Around and About
Your Dining & Entertainme nt Guide
and awarded for Toronto
based Livent's Broadway
productions is going over
the wall to the point where
we've quite lost count of
them. We speak of Show
Boat and Sunset
Boulevard. The former
premiered at the Ford Cen-
tre in North York; the lat-
ter is coming there in Oc-
tober. Together they're
clutching a fistful of
nominations and awards.
As a member of the Toron-
to Drama Bench we're per-
sonally most pleased by the
seven nominations, in-
cluding Outstanding
Musical Production, given
by the New York Drama
Desk for Show Boat. The
awards will be made this
Sunday at a gala celebra-
tion in Broadway's Roun-
dabout Theatre.
An over the wall celebra-
tion of quite a different
nature is being held this
Saturday at the Doral Inn
in New York City. That's
the banquet honouring the
30th anniversary of the
founding of The Sons of The
Desert.
For those benighted souls
who are unaware.** The
Sons of The Desert" is an
inter -national organization
dedicated to the study and
appreciation of the art of
comedians Laurel and Har-
dy. There are close to lou
chapters known as tents
and named after L.& H.
films all around the world.
The Toronto tent is known
as Tit For Tat and was the
fourth one founded.
Between the Drama Desk
and The Sons of The
Desert, it promises to be
quite a weekend. Where's

Joining her will be Tyley

In Toronto there are more
than 150 theatrical com-

presenting better than 300
theatrical productions and
10,000 performances an-
nually. That information is
gleaned from Joey (en's
HOToronto magazine, the
new bible of show business
activities in Toronto.
It's not surprising then,
that the jury preparing
nominations for the 1995

reviewed 231 shows to win-
now out 32 nominations.
Thev ( the nominations)
were announced at a City

MUSIC NOTES
The Toronto Operetta
rheatre continues to
thrive. All performances of
Die Fledermaus and The
Czarevitch were sold out as
were most of the Sunday
matinee concerts.
The two main operettas
scheduled for next season
are The Merry Widow and
New Moon. Sunday
matinees will feature The
Lure of Hollywood and
Golden Vienna among
other delights.
On the immediate horizon
is Fiesta Latina! next
Wednesday evening at the
Jane Mallett Theatre. This
is an all Spanish concert
featuring the music of
Puerto Rico, Cuba, Mexico
and Spain. Guillermo Silva -
Marin and special guest ar-
tists will be accompanied
by pianist Brahm
Goldhammer.
The success of T.O.T. of -
fens abundant proof that
there'll always be a place
for good popular music.
FOOD NOTES
Hong Kong takes food
very seriously. There are
more than 6,000 licensed
eating establishments
there. That's one for every
six people.
According to the most re-
cent figures, seven of the
world's ten busiest
McDonald's restaurants
are located in Hong Kong.
Does anyone remember
when Toronto's Lichee
Garden restaurant opened
and used to proclaim "The
far East moves West"'. It
would seem the reverse has
now come about.
FAST EXIT
The O.J. Simpson trial
continues to attract atten-
tion internationally. We
understand that the Dart
Throwing Association of
France is considering the
marketing of a special dart
named after Simpson. It"ll
be called the O.J.Dart.

New Ice Skating At
Busch Gardens
With all the flash and glit-
ter highlighting Busch
Gardens Tampa Bay's new
ice skating spectacular,
some might mistgake the
scene for Hollywood.
Guests definitely get that
Tinsel Town feeling as the
park rolls out the red
carpet for "Hollywood Live
on Ice".
Featuring six captivating
skating segments,
"Hollywood Live On Ice"
provides a 35 minute look
at decades of Hollywood
film making - from the ear-
ly silent films to the cur-
rent popular movies filled
with special effects.
Fourteen world-class
skaters and two vocalists
keep audience members on
the edge of their seats as
the show progresses from
the opening to scenes from
silent films, horror flicks,
classic movies, musical
and a James Bond segment
before the extravagant
"Hollywood" finale.
A chorus line of ushers on
ice, as well as some of
Hollywood's most
recognizable characters.
helps open the production
prior to a scene change and
a look at the silent film era.
A singing director open
the silent film segment on
two 3m x 2m video walls on
both sides of the ice rink
show the action on stage
while the dialogue cards
displayed on the screen
give guests the feeling of
watching a silent film.
Through the smoke and
fog emerge a 5 -metre -tall
inflatable dinosaur, a
werewolf and 30 skeltons
that come to life with the
aid of special lighting ef-
fects for the show's horror

Sea World Has New 1995 Attraction "Wild Arctic"
A thrilling Arctic adven-
ture makes its way to Sea
World of Florida, debuting
by the end of May 1995. The
multi -faceted attraction is
the park's most ambitious
project in its history and
the biggest undertaking in
the history of any
Anheuser-Busch Theme
Park. The Arctic adven-
ture combines a thrilling
flight over the frozen North
and real life encounters
with the animals that live
there.
"The Arctic remains a
Day" and "Shall We
Dance" to open the move
musicals segment. The
real magic of this segment,
though, is the rain curtain
that sets the scene for a
male vocalist's rendition of
"Singing in the Rain."
The action quickly comes
to life again with the lan-
ding of a hang glider with
close to a four -metres wing
span, opening the segment
honouring the unstoppable
superspy, James Bond. But
the entrance is only topped
by Bond's exit - via
helicopter.
The spectaculs set design
of the finale ensures that
guests won't soon forget
mystery to most," says
William A. Davisl, ex-
ecutive vice president and
general manager.
"Remote and largely inac-
cessible, it is assumed to be
a frozen desert. In actuali-
ty. it is a vast, ever-
changing ocean, teeming
with life and closely linked
to the rest of the planet. A5
part of Sea World's conti-
nuing commitment to offer
our guests unique ex-
periences with marine life,
we are bringing the sights,
sounds and sensations of
"Hollywood Live On Ice".
A towering staircase and
fountain set the scene as
film clips and photos of
some of Hollywood's most
glamorous leading ladies
are displayed on the video
walls.
A quick, on-stage costume
change highlights the final
segment before the song
"Hooray for Hollywood"
brings the extravaganza to
a dramatic finish.
Adding an extra flavour of
Hollywood is one of the
show's choreographers.

Guests view polar bears,

forage for food, dive. swim

Speaks Out
b% Jame% Campbell
It was a dark and stormy
night, at least it was the
night I saw ..Top Dog" . The
Toronto Sun rated this a 1
star film on Mav 7 and I see
why. The movie was not
funny. there was no action
and so I would have to con-
cur and give it a 1 star, if
that.
"Top Dog"• starring
karate expert, Chuck Nor -
ns, was simply a boring
movie, a box office bomb.
The film was so bad that
not even Chuck Norris
could bail it out. Rest
assured there will not be a
sequel.
Two other movies that I
saw recently were "Jury
Duty." and "Man of the
House."
"Jury Duty" featured
stand-up comedian Pauly
Shore. The movie was bas-
ed on an out -of -work male
stripper -hopeful, who
would eventually fail at
that. One day, all of a sud-
den, he got a notice for jury
duty. Well, he took the
"job" and became quite
good at it. At the end... I
won't spoil it for those who
have not seen it yet, but
Greenw•alks around the
school. at the nearby
elementary schools and
round the neighbourhood.
It makes the area look bet-
ter. and underscores the
social responsibility that
students display for their
environment. A fresh paint
even appeared on the doors
of Borden B.T.I. A hurray
to all the students who took
part, the staff and to the
coordinators of the ac-
tivities. Stew MacSween.
Bernie Noakes. and Chuck
Janes.
On Movies
changes happen for him
%ben he falls for another
jurorl, a bright and capable
woman. The Toronto Sun
rated this a 1 star filth
because of the "cracks"
made towards O.J. Simp-
son, but those cracks are
some of the funny parts of
the film. I would rate this a
3 star.
One of the best films all
year was "Man of the
House", starring Chevy
Chase. However. Chevy
Chase wasn't the only
"big" actor in the film.
There was George Wendt of
"Cheers" fame and
Jonathan Taylor Thomas
from "Home Improve-
ment".
Chevy Chase plays a man
just coming into the life of a
woman with a son who is
plaved by Jonathan Taylor
Thomas. The son proceeds
to continually put Chase
down. The son is upset
because it was just him and
his mom for 5 years), then
this guy comes around. He
feels left out.
I personally think that not
only people who happen to
like these three actors will
enjoy this funny movie. I
rate this a 4.5 star.
For A Super Salad New Zealand Kiwifruit
(NAPS)—Light, lus-
cious and loaded with
nutrition: That's how
many describe New
Zealand kiwifruit, a tasty
snack and refreshing
complement for your
meals, whatever the time
of year.
Health and nutrition
experts recommend that
people should eat five or
more servings of fruit and
vegetables per day—and
what hotter fruit to
choose than New Zealand
kiwifruit! One serving of
two New Zealand kiwi-
fruit has as much vitamin
C as an orange, as much
potassium as a banana,
and as much fiber as a 2/3
cup of bran flakes—and
has only 90 calories. For
even more fiber, eat with-
out peeling.
New Zealanders say
cutting a kiwifruit in half
and scooping out the
inside with a spoon is the
best way to eat it. This
minimizes the mess and
maximizes the convenience.
Of course, New Zea-
land kiwifruit also goes
great in desserts, juices
and scrumptious salads,
such as the recipe you'll
