Remax offices stage
World Series wager
While the Toronto Blue Jays may
not be a sure bet to win this year's

The Pickering office issued a $500

this friendly bet will go to the
Children's Miracle Network — a
charity for children's hospitals
throughout the United States and
Canada.
Remax Quality One owner Roger

office won't be the one paying out the
charity money.
"There's no doubt that Remax

For the second time in as many
years, Pickering Council is trying to
get the province to slow down traffic

year, the town asked the province to
widen the 50 km speed zone west
along Highway 7.

Planning report on housing

Town planners presented a report
to Pickering council this week,
supporting the concept of basement
apartments and granny flats in
principle but with a host of specific
objections.
The province is proposing a change
to the Planning Act which would
allow this kind of intensification and
limit municipal planning power.
Pickering planners object to the
removal of their planning authority
under the proposed changes. A staff
report suggests accessory apartments
should be subject to the same kind of
approval process as group homes.
Cranny flats should be restricted to
family members and special needs

Heating can install a vent system
throughout your entire house and a
new furnace for approximately
$8,000.
As long as you plan to stay in your
house for 10 years, Melesse believes
the conversion from baseboard is
worth it.
"Real estate people call up asking
how much it will cost to change a
house to gas," he said. "Apparently
they are having trouble selling
houses with electric heating."
Buying a gas furnace is simple with
Bridlewood Heating. Through the
Bank of Nova Scotia, consumers can
get financing at four points above the
prime rate.
A 24-hour emergency service also
provides worry -free, reliable round-
the-clock assistance.
Bridlewood Heating uses only top
name products like Carrier and
Lennox and also sells and services
traditional electric furnaces.
With six showrooms across greater
Toronto, friendly sales staff are a
short drive away.
You can visit Bridlewood Heating s

Big mistakes are often
made because of wrong

Roofing nails should never

Breakthrough in
Lower Denture
. . . .........
Stability
Many dental patients
suffer with dentures that
slip, slide and shift.
Unstable dentures make
speech difficult and
proper mastication of
food almost impossible.
It doesn't have to be this
way! The result of over
five years of development,
the Myolocl system is the
truly affordable route to
stable lower dentures for
virtually every edentulous
patient and it eliminates
the need for messy
adhesives. The stabilizers
are completely invisible.
The Myoloci-M system
offers your edentulous
patients an immediate
A
improvement in: lower
denture retention,
stability, speech,

Hydro accident that
killed Pickering man
under investigation
by police, coroner
By Christine Sears
Investigators remain tight-
lipped about the events
surrounding an underground
explosion that killed a Pickering
resident last week.
Toronto Hydro employee
Tom Vanderstarren, 34, was
working underground in east
Toronto on Oct. 16 when a blast
and flash fire ripped through a
switching vault.
The father of three children
was burned beyond recognition
and pronounced dead at the
scene. Vanderstarren was the
seventeenth Hydro worker to be
Wed on the job since the mid -
1940s.
The accident has been under
investigation by Metropolitan
Toronto Police, the Ontario
labor ministry and the Ontario
Fire Marshal's Office. A
coroner's inquest is also
"It's an ongoing process,'
said police investigator Scott
Gilbert. "I can't be specific as to
when it will end because I dori t
know where the investigation
will take us."
This latest accident falls in the
wake of a September report by
Mercer Management Consulting
— commissioned by Toronto
Hydro — which criticized the
utility's employment safety.
Some of the equipment
predates the First World War
forcing employees to often work
with live wires.
A Toronto Hydro public
relations supervisor wouldn't
comment on worker safety.
"Yes, some of the equipment
is predated," said Finola
Gallagher. "But I can't really
cornment on safety. I'd have to
look into it. Like other
municipalities, we are in the
third year of a 25 -year project to
upgrade old equipmenrt "

International scores ignore our advantages
nternational math tests
showing Asian countries
scoring higher than
...Canadians fail to show
many of the advantages of the
Canadian education system.
"If what people want are the top
marks, then our education system
can provide that," says Louise Farr,
chairman of the Durham public
school board. "But our system is
mandated to do much more."
"Vie must always strive to improve.
But we should be aware of all the
features of our education system."
Among those features: Canada
educates a greater proportion of her
population than many of the high
scoring countries.
Students at the high end are
increasingly learning the kind of
creative thinking. problem solving
and collaborative work skills that
industry needs. Schools are holding
on to more students at the lower end
than ever before.
In addition, the public education
system deals with a wide variety of
issues not dealt with in other
countries: teaching in two languages;
arts, phys. ed. and a wide spectrum
of courses; prevention programs for
AIDS and substance abuse; an
extensive transportation system;
social work, counselling and much
more.
'We have to decide what we want,
and the education system is ready to
deliver that," she explained.
"If it's high international marks,
uniformity and regimentation, we
can do that. But I think the values
Canadians have chosen are wise
choices.'
"What we've decided up to now is
that we want an education system
that is not elitist: that gives all
children a chance regardless of their
abilities, that honors the principles
of multiculturalism and bilingualism.
and that helps children socially and
emotionally as well as intellectually.'
She sees changes ahead in the
education system, as much in
response to money supply cutbacks
and financial realities as in response
to international tests.
There are changes taking place in
Durham public schools as a result of
the international tests.
.Maths classes will be given more
practice in answering these kinds of
questions. Curriculum is being
reviewed to ensure that concepts
stressed in the tests are adequately
covered.
Any fundamental change depends
on what values Canadians want in
their education system.
Without a centralized national
education system, fundamental
changes must involve an unwieldy
number of interested parties:
parents, community and business
representatives, teachers' unions,
local board of education, provincial
ministries of education and the
federal government.
An attempt to hear from all of the
constituencies has been made over
the last six months by the federal
prosperity secretariat.
In a series of community meetings
teachers, trustees, business leaders,
students and others have contributed
to community talks which focus on
another kind of international test —
how we're doing in competing in
world trade.
Farr has participated widely in
these talks. She expects thev'll
continue next year, focussing more
on values and changes in education.
At the end of a 2 -year pilot project
integrating special education
students into regular classes,
Durham public school board plans to
extend the approach to other
schools.
Over the last two years, children
with various disabilities have been
integrated into regular classes with
special support from the special
education teachers and educational
assistants. Eight elementary schools
in Durham have taken part in the
project, including Ilighbush School
in Pickering.
Special education officer Brad
Cruxton presented the final report
on the pilot to the board this month.
lie said the program has been
enthusiastically endorsed by parents.
teachers and principals.
"All principals would like the
program to continue in their
schools," he told the board. "To go
back would be out of the question."
No principal reported any negative
feedback.
Several comments in the report
focus on the new kind of partnership
role which integration requires of
teachers.
'Personalities are very important
to the success of the pilot."
explained one. "The learning
strategist teacher has to be able to
take on a new role — a resource
role."
Other principals described the
teamwork necessary between special
education teachers, classroom
teachers and educational assistants.

Chrysler Intrepid a gutsy"
performer
by Glen Konwowski
ell, they're finally here —
Chrysler's new LH sedans, the
'< Intrepid and Concord. If you're
.................a "car nut" like myself, then it's
time to judge these newcomers to the
automotive scene.
These new LH sedans are extremely
important to Chrysler's future as they will
set the tone for what is to come. The
platform on which these cars are built will
carry many of Chrysler's future vehicles.
If you like bigger cars, you will certainly
appreciate these new LH sedans. They
offer the kind of interior space I haven't
seen in a car for years. As for the exterior,
I fmd it quite stylish.
You have to remember the demands put
on car companies to build more efficient
cars has led to a more aerodynamic shape.
Since there are few wind cheating shapes,
all new cars are tending to look the same.
just last week I tested a new Dodge
Intrepid. The model I had was fairly basic
— with air-conditioning and an AMfFM
cassette. Add up what is standard on this
car and you have a fairly well equipped car.
Under the hood is a choice of two V-6
engines. The base engine is the
conventional Detroit iron displacing 3.3 -
litres with no overhead cams or multi
valves. Power for the V-6 is 1553 hp and 177
lbs. ft. of torque.
The optional engine Chrysler expects to
sell most is a 3.5 -litre overhead cam.
Power for this "little beast' will be 214 hp
and 221 lbs, ft. of torque at 2800 rpm.
What makes these engines a little
different is they are located under the hood
in a north/south layout instead of
transverse (sideways). This north/south
layout allows for easier maintenance and
more room for future engine choices.
Rumor has it we might see a future front
engine rear drive car in another model.
All LH sedans come with a smooth
shifting, electronically -controlled, four -
speed transmission. During my test drive I
was impressed by how quietly this
transmission changed gears. It almost
seemed like the car had no gears. The jerk
of gears shifting was almost non-existent.
Interior styling is modern and up-to-
date. All buttons, knobs and controls are
well placed for driver ease. Seating up
front on my test car was a 5W50 bench seat.
I am generally not a fan of bench seats but
in the two hours spent driving the car, I was
very comfortable.
The back seat area is where the action is.
Passengers will have no problems with leg
room back there. Three adults should fit in
the rear in cosy comfort.
I was impressed by the performance of
the Intrepid for the short time I had it. For
a big car it has good pick-up and enough
power to keep it at those. speeds. Chrysler
New roomy interior of 1993 Chrysler Intrepid
engineers feel their car can compete against
the likes of BMW 5 series, Taurus, Maxima
and Camry to name just a few.
I was a little disappointed in the
Intrepid's parking lot manners. The long
wheel base makes tight turning harder.
With conventional space getting narrower
over the years, things can Poet a little tricky
when parking.
Beep in mind that I am used to smaller
car,., so 1 may not be one to really judge.
But if you have been driving a smaller
car for some time and looking to go bigger,
be prepared for the wider turning radius.
Prices for the Intrepid are
approximately $18,000 to start. The higher
line Chrysler Concord starts at
approximately $21.000. The Intrepid is
already at Chrysler dealers while the
Concord is on the way.

Menu For
By Carrie Lewis
DHS co-op student
Whether people know it or
not, physical fitness activities are
discreetly invading Canadian
lifestyles. Healthy living is
incorporating itself under the
title of "Menu for life."
Menu for Life is a
Participaction campaign
designed to inform people
across Canada that "even a little
regular physical activity makes a
healthy difference."
Participaction intends to help
Canadians adopt a new,
healthier lifestyle.
Past strategies have included
balanced diets and regular
exercise. The new approach is
more subtle and less time
consuming. The results may
Life
take longer, but Participaction
believes this new program is
more realistic and won't set
people up for failure.
"We wanted people to
integrate physical activity into
their daily routine. It will, in the
long run, add to people's overall
health," says Anne O'Connell of
Participaction.
Only 30 per cent of the
Canadian population actually
participates in a physical activity
on a regular basis.
Participaction's new goal is to
reach the other 70 per cent
through their menu campaign.
By highlighting the smaller
things, it's proposed people can
get in shape and assume
healthier lifestyles without
wasting valuable time.
These things include walking
to nearby grocery and video
stores instead of driving the car,
raking leaves or even something
as simple as walking the dog.
Participaction encourages all
forms of physical activity —
from housework to taking the
stairs instead of an escalator.
"We wanted to encourage
individuals who are already
active to continue their work,"
O'Connell said. "For those who
can't get to a 'gym', we want to
let them know that they don't
have to go to that extreme.-
With
xtreme"With the help of this menu
plan, Participaction hopes the
70 per cent of Canadians who
aren't physically active will join
the 30 per cent who are.
