For Nicholas and Andrei, Ajax means a new beginning after spending their entire short lives in a Romanian orphan- age with 75 other children, all five and under and all waiting for new parents. After five years of fight- ing red tape, five years of frustration and heartbreak, the Tezaks have finally real- ized their dream of parent- hood. Watching the boys play together in her comfortable giving room, Bev Tezak knows it has all been worth it. "We waited so long for this; we thought this would never end," she says, her voice breaking. "But this is the result; this is the reward." The road leading to Nicholas and Andrei actually began seven years ago when Bev, a nurse at Centenary Hospital in Scarborough, and Chuck, a Toronto Star distributor, decided they wanted to have children. They tried, as Chuck puts it, "the normal way," but had problems so they tried invetro fertilization. After one short-lived pregnancy (Bev miscarriaged after just six weeks), another unsuc- cessful attempt and a "roller- coaster of emotions," they turned to adoption. They went on the lists for Is public confusion what Snobelen wants? -from cover The media has been quot- ing government sources say- ing Premier Mike Harris will drop all 166 school boards in favor of five to 18 boards - with restricted mandates - representing the nine regions of Ontario. Harris will be guided by the results of a spe- cial sub -panel - led by former Toronto mayor David Crombie - that is examining education reforms. Crombie's Who Does What report is expected to be released in the next few weeks. McLean understands the province wants to save money but says any decision that takes power away from elect- ed trustees is a slap at the pub- lic's right to have a say in the education of their cltildmrt. "My number one question. is: are (the trustees) elected, and if they are, who are they going to wpmsatt? If they're appointed, vt W$ going to appoint diem?

Pm ftm- damentally opposed to this. This (strikes at) the very basis of our democracy: I don't want an appointed school board, thank you very much." McLean says there's a lot of confusion among parents about what education minister John Sobelen's final decision may be; different newspapers had different versions of the rumor, she points out. She speculates that the confusion may be exactly what Snobelen wants. "I don't think a lot of peo- ple understand what the min- istry is saying. And I think that's part of its strategy," she explains. "It's definitely a wake-up call for parents. You're not going to be con- sulted: you're going to be told. _ "But until we see David Crombie's report, these (Honors) in just hot air bat-; loons put out to :gest public reaction." :,.McLean says it's time'.

If that's the model they watt to change, I think they need to come out and say it." Canadian adoptions and "played the waiting game" for three years before hiring a facilitator to help them look overseas. "Dealing with Canada was too slow," Bev says. "I didn't want my children calling me Grandma." The first country they looked at was Russia and they very nearly had a win- ner, but the deal fell through at the last minute. Last November they changed facilitators and looked to Romania. That's when they saw pictures of Nicholas (born Arnold) and Andrei. "I don't know if we were in a hurry, but we didn't know when the next children would come up. We both agreed right away to take these two boys," remembers Bev. "And their smiles; they were so cute." That day began the 10 - month emotional odyssey for Bev and Chuck, who, through pictures, videos and two personal visits, watched their future sons grow from babies to little boys. "They only knmx a few words and some Romanian baby -talk," says Chuck, who has taken two weeks off from his job to help care for the boys. "But they're both very intelligent. "Of course, they think their middle names are No." After all the bureaucratic delays and all the tears, Bev - with a six-month leave from her job - is ready for her new family and grateful that she and Chuck were , iven the opportunity to raise their children. "We experienced the red tape and frustration in Russia. All we were waiting for was a phone call," she explains. "But I believe everything happens for a reason. Look what we ended up with." Chuck is also thankful for ,he joy that has come into his Afe since the arrival of Nicholas and Andrei. "Nicholas still cries him- self to sleep every night_ He's probably afraid he'll wake up and be back home in the orphanage," he says. "But it's really nice watching them get up.

And how was you Thanksgiving? Did you, like most North Americans, sit down to i big turkey feast with the family? For some reason. the celebration of Thanksgiving is taken ` far more seriously in the States than it is here in Canada And yet, the epic event which Americans celebrate so enthusiastically, however contrived that story may seem. represents much of our beginnings as a country too. While every culture has its own festival of thanks, the touchdown of the Mayflower on North American soil and the subsequent feast shared by pilgrims with a local Indian tube, has come to signify much more than just the offering up of thanks for a safe journey across the Atlantic. Typical of the indomitable human spirit, hundreds of other adventurous settlers would. in fact, follow that first group, and they and their descendants would go on, making inroads into virgin territories. And eventually, one Timothy Rogers would lead a small group of Friends from Pennsylvania across Lake Ontario to build several small settlements near Toronto — one of which would become Pickering Village. But Rogers and his followers were just the first of our immigrant population. Our community has since grown to be a mini United Nations. each "settler" with a unique story to tell and each blessed with at least a small kernel of that same indomitable spirit which drove our ancestors to strike out. to do something difficult, to take a chance. We see that same special spirit everywhere in our communities today: in people who run the food banks so others will not go hungry; in men and women working for their community service clubs or local sports organizations; in volunteers raising funds for people who are ill or in need, in churches including quiet acts of kindness along with their other good works; m special places like the newly re -opened Youth Club where precious values — like love and Caring — can be passed on down to the next generation.

The grand finale of the night was the councillors' presentation of a "Big Brother" type video surveillance system. - I vote that we buy several of these cameras and install them in the back rooms of the Civic complex. This will accomplish three things: 1) Vk can find out just what our councillors are doing back there. 2) We may get pt a glimpse of how our tax dollars are being divided up. - - 3) Based on the regular Monday night council Th .,._life ... ..

Seventeen seconds into the game he allowed a goal. Three more goals followed that period, but the young goaltender settled down surrendering only one goal in the final 40 minutes to spark his team to victory. "We just wanted to give him some time," said Blackburn. "It wasn't his fault. Twenty guys just weren't prepared. Tonight was like pond hockey.

The rematch was a different story. Pickering were more focused and because of a close -checking effort, the Panthers were victorious 2-1. Jamie Emshe scored the first Pickering goal while Michael Watkins scored the game winner. Brian Campbell assisted on both goals. Defencemen Robert Bayley and Tyler Van Gijn, along with forward Kyle Harding showcased nimble offensive skills in pressuring the Ajax Knights in their zone. In addition to being shorthanded in the last minute of play, Pickering had to ward off the pressure of an extra Ajax attacker when the Knights pulled the goaltender in hopes of equalizing. But thanks to the stellar netminding of Nicholas Seelart and the penalty killing of Campbell, Van Gijn, Neubauer and Mike Murphy, the Panthers were able to hold the Knights at bay and pick up the victory. >...a;:. _ ._ _...__._ _..:._�:........�.-,,.,. .�,,,,.s.•.a:�:,K.,.p._:T ui£a?"'SF•T':r:�. nye. s - „�,�,,�,,:.t-,"_.. --•-'•++acv,...,,...: sees:_ �--.,, ..__ _ .-. sees-•--•.�..-_ . .. .
