PACT representatives Dave Steele ar.d Dave Ryan gave an outline of the study to Pickering cotaxi Monday night. Council was considering a motion to corm^lme 510,000 to the 530,000 study.

The employees at the Commercial Avenue store detained the suspect who had attempted to pass a fake $50 bill, until police arrived. The suspect, who was carrying 15 counterfeit $50 bills when he was arrested, is also suspected of passing fake bills at a number of other locations in Durham, mostly beer stores and liquor stores, police said. Lawrence Lauder, 38, of Greenwood Avenue, was held for investigation after a bail hearing Monday morning. He is charged with six counts of passing counterfeit currency and possession of counterfeit curren ct:. y AMON, �p 2 Peter WoicnaM SOAP STAR: Heather Tom thrilled a capacity crowd of her fans at the Pickering Town Centre mall recently. Tom plays Victoria Nev►Tnan on The Young and the Restless. Cultural centre for Ajax? By Glenn Hendry Does Ajax lack culture? Ward 3 Councillor Steve Parish thinks so, and wants the town to spend its federal/provincial infrastructure money on a library/theatre complex to address that need. Parish, who said Ajax lacks a "cultural dimension," wants the complex built in the Harwood Avenue-Bayly Street area. He speculated that part of town could be a "ghost town" when the Highway 401 interchange is moved from Harwood to Pickering Beach Road at the end of the decade. Parish introduced the proposal during last week's executive and development committee meeting where members were given the task of deciding how to spend the $5.1 minion infrastructure allotment. The libra:../theatre was not part of staff recommendations, which included $412,300 for' the reconstruction of Christina Crescent, $400,100 for work on Georgina Crescent. $897,000 for improvements to MacKenzie Avenue, $144,000 for the resurfacing of Rands Road (year two), and $1,189,323 for intersection improvements at Highway 2 and Elizabeth Street, and Highway 2 and Church Street. Committee members decided after some debate to defer the local funding decisions to the April 7 executive and development committee member. "We have to look at (the library/theatre complex). There's an opportunity to do some innovative things here," said Regional Councillor Roger Anderson, the committee chairman. "But we don't have a lot of time." What committee members did agree to do was the Carruthers Creek pumping station, a $16.3 million (first phase) project that will open up 1,200 acres of industrial land and 1,000 additional residential acres for development. The town will spend $2.1 million of its allotment, coupled with $6 million of Durham Region's infrastructure cash. The one-third funding required by the municipalities under the program will be picked up by Runnymede Development, the principal landowner at the site. The development company will chip in an additional $8.2 million, bringing its total contribution to $10.9 million. Ajax Chief Administrative Officer Bary Malmstem said the pumping station will "serve Ajax's future" and also "help to address the towr,'s residential/'industrial imbalance." Malmstem predicts the ratio — now at 82 per cent residential, 1S per cent industrial — will be at 65/35 when the area served by the pumping station is completely developed. Pickering couple launch tainted blood lawsuit e From Page 1 15,000 Canadians were given HIV tainted blood during the period from 1978 to 1985, before an AIDS -screen was initiated. Lynn was given no warning by the hospital and didn't find out she was infected with HIV until June, 1993. Gabe Kampf is HN -negative. 'It was certainly devastating news," Gabe explained. "We cM t know what it meant. Did it mean we were facing weeks, months? We had a tremendous amount to learn." What they have learned, Gabe said, is there are 150 to 200 new HIV-positive cases in Ontario each month and that the infection rate for women, now 10 to 20 per cent of all cases, is on the increase. Gabe also read the results of a Hospital for Sick Children pilot project studying infected children that ooncluded as much as one per cent of patients who received blood at the hospital from 1978 to 1985 could be infected with HIV. During that period there were 1.5 million transfusion patients in Canada. Lynn Kampf, the mother of three teenagers, testified at the commission of a lack of counselling in her case as well as a myriad of medical misinformation and system glitches. Gabe Kampf told The Boy NYeurs they are working on a lawsuit with the Canadian Red Cross and St. Michael's Hospital named in the suit. "This should not have happened. Blood transfusion victims should be traced and told," he said. "This should never happen again."

She also recommended that more work be done on odor control (there have been odor complaints recorded since 1979); stationary air monitoring devices be installed in nearby residential areas; the Seaton Hiking Tratl through the area be diverted or fenced; and that the health department be consulted when any residential development is considered near a landfill site. 30 -Hour Famine creates world hunger awareness By Peter Wokhak The 30 -Hour Famine arrives In Pickering and Ajax this weekend, and for North Americans who rarely go without food for more than 12 hours, the experience should be an eye-opener. On Feb. 25 and 26, local citizens join more than 500,000 others worldwide who will participate in this year's famine, sponsored by Canadian -based World Vision. Participants solicit pledges and fast for 30 hours, consuming only water and fruit juice. The money helps fund approximately 5,000 development projects in more than 90 countries. Fasting is not easy, says World Vision representative Big Waffle. "It's not comfortable to go without solid food for 30 hours," he told The Bay News. "You can't experience what it's like to be in a (real) famine, to not have safe drinking water or regular food. By going without food you're saying This matters to me, it's important.' It's important to Grade 12 Pickering High School student Melissa Martin. This is her second fast. "Near the end (of the first fast) I just wanted food," she said in an interview at her school. 'But it isn't as hard as you think it will be. The thought of kids who go days and days without food levels you off and you think, 'I'm not going to eat.' If I raise $25 it will be better than nothing. Teenagers — until we're 18 — can't vote. We can unite letters but they don't do much. With this we can actually have an effect." Martin is being encouraged by Roger Middleton, her geography teacher.

It's not a social event, but an educational experience," he said in an interview. Fasting gave him a greater understanding of poverty issues. "The first time you fast you wonder about it. It made me irritable and I ended up just going to skeep. That's the best way to deal with it." "(Some say) people in the Third World are lazy and they don't want to work," he added. "It's easy to be critical, but we don't understand what it's like to be malnourished. You get dizzy and fight -headed. It makes you think" And that, ultimately, is the point. Changing attitudes in developed countries is at least as important as donations. "Over the 30 hours you think about it more," said Martin.

The restaurant's reputation has been built on the great food served, large portions and terrific value. "No one is giving any better value," says owner Chris Papatheodorou, a lifelong resident of Pickering. "We give that personal touch. We're one of the few independently -owned restaurants still around." For those who have been to Papps before, you're all too familiar with the eatery's wide-ranging menu. Papps has it all — great daily specials, deli sandwiches, fresh salads, barbecue wings, ribs, stir fries, and much more. Papps also features a "heart smart" menu that includes healthier fare such as vegetarian pasta dishes and salads. Sunday brunch is still a popular favorite from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m The restaurant now features great live local entertainment on Thursday and Friday nights at Papps' Backdoor Pub downstairs.

"It was my idea and therefore not recognized as being an idea of merit."

Councillor Kip Van Kempen supported Higdon's claims of mistreatment by the mayor and councillors at the council meeting. He called for a vote to allow her to introduce the blue box idea. The vote was defeated, with Councillors Maurice Brenner and Enrico Pistrino voting against. Three members of council were absent at Monday's meeting — Mayor Wayne Arthurs and Rick Johnson, at a roads convention in Toronto., and Councillor Doug Wellman. Later in the meeting, Councillor Enrico Pistritto also talked about the need for a new kind of politics on council. He has been embroiled in a campaign to authorize the use of convention funds to attend a management seminar on "principle -centered leadership." He said in a newsletter to constituents that he would bring the matter to a vote on Feb. 21. But at Monday's meeting, he told councillors he has been having a lot of good talks with constituents about the issue and feels the need to continue discussing. He said he was not bringing the issue for a vote now, but would bring it when the time is "appropriate."

Last week, the Ontario government announced it is poised to launch a cheaper and more accessible form of day care for families who can least afford it. It's a progressive move that has been a long time in coming. Essentially, the plan calls for the province to assume the administration of day care senice. Day care registration would be done through a regional agency and spaces would be allotted on a first-come, first-served basis. The province would fund service, then collect fees from parents. Those whose income fails below a certain level would automaticalh, be entitled to subsidies without hating to go onto a waiting list. It's all a wonderful sounding idea and certainly an immense improvement over the existing way day care services are provided. The mrnme to making day care more available certainly fulfills a need. But it is still an institutionalized child care system Curioush•, the notion of making it easier for families to stay home with their own children doesn't seem to fit into the child care equation. Parents must be considered the best and most qualified care providers. Certainly there is a significant number of families who would prefer to stay at home with their children if they could afford to. Any parent who has ever dropped off a youngster at day care understands the painful separation and emotional stress that occurs. Day care for many families is a need driven by economic necessity. Two parents work in order to make ends meet. For some, a little additional income could make the difference. Ift not provide some type of government grant or subsidy to families who choose to stay home with their children? Nothing exorbitant. As muds as what is currently paid in the form of a day care subsidy and year end tax credit. There's enough evidence to suggest that .institutionalized child care has had a significant impact on a generation of youngsters. Many of today's social problems might well be traced to something lacking in the way children have been raised. It's an option that should have as much merit as placing youngsters in day care. The province might well consider helping parents stay at home to raise their children at least equally as important as institutionalizing them.

The society is a non-profit educational group who study medieval times, the period of the knights, the Crusades and the Black Death, from approximately 600-1600 A.D. They stage festivals and battles and teach others about bygone days. The world, according to the society, is divided into 13 kingdoms, and then into principalities, baronies and cantons. With 100,000 members worldwide, the society has a king and queen and a full range of lesser nobles. The monarchs must fight for the right to rule in tournaments held twice a year. Six members were at St. Anthony Daniel Catholic School last Friday. Two knights clashed in a series of battles, interspersed with lessons on Chivalry and the history of the period. Students cheered wildly as the combatants bashed each other with a variety of period weapons. A musician and three ladies of the court completed the group. The students were most interested in the conflict, and often encouraged a knight to finish -off his opponent rather than spare his life, as the riles of chivalry occasionally dictated. It is just those rules and the philosophy behind them that the society encourages. "The whole value of honor, chivalry, courtesy and carng are central to what we believe," OPTOMETRISTS pr. E.

This is missing in today's society and it's not always encouraged." Members spend evenings and weekends making period costumes and armor, studying the history and generally living the iife of the medieval age. At festivals they recreate ancient towns, perform traditional music and demonstrate technology that was out-of-date centuries ago. Authentic feasts will included sekanjhamin, an Arabian mint drink, and sobtielty and blancmange, two desserts. Dana Cusing, who's medieval name is Austrechild von Mondsee, is in her second year of medieval studies at the University of Toronto. She admits to spending a lot of time in the past. "It's significant :n my life," she said after per^orrning at St. Anthony Daniel. "Some people tn'.nk it's strange, end it is, but it's a lot of fun." "Some people call (role playing) 'the dream.' It represents our aspiration to chivalry and courtesy. It is what we reach for." Local residents can experience medieval life at a planned November arts and sciences competition in Pickering.

The town accomplished the zero increase in the mill rate for the first time since records were made available to the media in 1980. Regional Councillor Susan Dulny, who chaired the budget coMmittee, called the budget process a "culmination of opinions and struggles" and, ultimately, a "final result hopefully bringing us all good news." She `tanked staff for bringing :n a preliminary budget that allowed council to maintain the level of services to residents, .�fiile recognizing the difficulties *ae task presented because of :.-ie Social Contract andthe reduced transfer payments from the province. . Ward 3 Councillor Steve Parish, while also congratulating Dulny and staff for bringing in a budget without a tax increase. said the result did have its drawbacks. "Were fooling ourselves if we think we're not cutting services. We have to operate more efficiently," he said, a sentiment echoed by Ward 5 Councillor Pat Brown, who said the town has to become "leaner and meaner, as private industry has."

These are the children who attend FutureKids classes. FutureKids, located at 376 Kingston Rd. in Pickering, offers many excellent educational programs available that offer a wide range of math skills. Adult guidance can help children zero in on their interest niche and appropriate skill level. Many math programs allow you to adjust the skill level within the program to increase or decrease the difficulty, thus customizing the program. The child can then proceed at his or her own pace, thereby building the confidence level. To find out more about these exciting opportunities for learning or about the FutureKids March Break camps (March 10 - 11, all day; March 14 - 18, half - days), call FutureKids at 509 -KIDS.
