Tapping us for more Durham schools mindful of religions in seasonal festivities BY SUSAN O'NEILL STAFF REPORTER Holiday celebrations at public schools throughout the region are tak- ing a "multi -dimensional" approach to- ward the traditions of the season. Gary Ranalli, ethnocultural and race relations facilitator for the Durham Board of Education, says schools here present students with the big picture when celebrating the Christmas sea- son. "We like to emphasize making it multi -dimensional;' he says, noting schools try to be inclusive of all stu- dents when celebrating holidays such as Christmas and Hanukkah. Mr. Ranalli says there's always a "latent problem" when it comes to cel- ebrating Christmas in schools, noting teachers and principals are mindful of Durham water rates likely to rise in 1998 BRIAN 1IICHOLSON `It's not too onerous' BY KEITH GILLIGAN STAFF REPORTER You could pay almost $7 more to turn on the tap next year. Durham Regional Council will consider a recommendation next Wednesday to increase residential water user rates by an average of 4.2 per cent in 1998 while keeping sewer user rates at this year's level. For a typical residential user con- suming 60,000 gallons of water a year, the increase works out to $6.76 annually, or $1.69 quarterly. Over the course of a year, the average cus- tomer will pay almost $352 in water and sewer rates. Regional finance committee chair- man and Oshawa Councillor Brian Nicholson Wednesday said the water cost increase is the equivalent of "a Big Mac, fries and a shake. It's not too onerous. "If there isn't a small increase now, we'll have to look (in future years) at increases of 10 per cent or drastic cuts in services. We're not raising the rates unconsciously;" Coun. Nicholson said at a joint meet- ing of the Region's finance and works committees. The increase in the combined water -sewer rates is the first since 1992. Works commissioner Vic Silgailis said, "We've basically reached the end of the road of zero -per cent in- creases. We just can't do it. We've basically cleaned out our reserves. See DURMNI/Page 3 children of every faith. While he says it's fine for schools to display nativity scenes prior to Christ- mas, schools must ensure the Christian faith is not the only religion to which children are exposed. According to a 1988 court ruling that removed devotional practices from public institutions, Mr. Ranalli says favouritism cannot be given to any rch- gion. Based on that ruling he says schools can "promote the study of religion but not the practice of any specific reli- gion. "Any approach has to be instruc- tional, not devotional:" INSIDE The Great Outdoors -- Durham Region public achool students learn lessons outside the class- room at outdoor education cen- tres - page 22.

L IS 2H5 Publisher: Tim Whittaker ♦ Editorial There ought to be a law Why is it that radiation emission standards enjoy, as Energy Probe's Norm Rubin puts it, a "privileged" posi- tion as compared to other toxins found in our environ- ment? Here in Pickering and Ajax (and in other communities in Durham sandwiched between the Pickering and Dar- lington nuclear stations) residents were astonished to learn this week the comparative gaps in the limits be- tween 'radionuclides' such as tritium and other, perhaps even common chemical toxins are so substantial. Mr. Rubin's comments came last Friday before the Durham Nuclear Health Committee, a body of public. Durham Region and Ontario Hydro representatives formed to deal with public health issues related to the re- gion's nuclear stations. Upon examination of Mr. Rubin's arguments, he makes perfect sense. Using tritium (of which significant amounts have leaked into Lake Ontario from the Pickering station on several occasions) as an example, Mr. Rubin says cur- rent exposure limits are averaged out over a year. If the level on one day exceeds the provincial 7,000 becquerels per litre, that reading is averaged out with other findings over the calendar year. Would you want to drink water from your taps on that one day that limits were exceed- ed" Not likely, and to their credit. Durham health offi- cials have ordered the shutdown of the Ajax water plant on the basis of readings far lower than the legal limit. Further, radiation standards are set by such organiza- tions as the International Commission on Radiological Protection and those standards are usually applied here. Why, Mr. Rubin asks, would Ontario and Canada not set their own limits? Good question. Clearly, there arc concerns both among groups like Energy Probe and Durham Nuclear Awareness, not to mention the public at large. The Durham Nuclear Health Committee must pay heed to the concerns raised officially by Mr. Rubin, and unofficially by the people of Durham. Continued scrutiny, tougher standards and public consultation are some of the requirements that must be considered because of Durham's unique situation. After all, nearly 400,000 people live between the region's two nuclear stations. Mr. Rubin himself said it best at the meeting regard- ing tougher radiation emission standards: "There ought to be a law." �To respond to this editorial call hrjosowre at nom.,, 683-7040 and dial 5104 Ajax Pickering News Advertiser Publisher: Tim Whittaker A Metroland Community Newspaper bushed TuesdaYWedrlesda Frida Sunda �('i�I4/tyE��p..

What is separate school board trustee Todd McCarthy trying to hide? Are the Durham Region Roman Catholic Separate School Board Grade 3 test results so much lower then the public board that he feels it is better not to release them? One of the things about Bill 160 is we will finally have some account- ability in our school system. If the re- sults of the separate board are not up to the public board which released its figures, people who are paying the tab have the right to know. If they are bet- ter they should know also. A lot of the public's money was spent on these tests. I am a parent of one of those Grade 3 students who was tested and would like to know if the public board is getting more bang for its buck. (Re- sults, that is the bottom line.) As a tax- payer I have the right to know if this separate school board is on par with other boards or do we need a change in leadership at the top? In the real world, a regular job, if you are not at least keeping up with your fellow workers you have to ex- plain it to the boss. Mr. McCarthy has seen fit to hide the results from the taxpayer and therefore not have to ex- plain anything. Paul Legros, Ajax Election justice hijacked To the editor: I am writing to express my dis- gust at what I perceive to be a hi- jacking of election justice. Roger Anderson was soundly de- feated in the Nov. 10 municipal election for the Ajax mayor's office, but less than a month later he's ap- pointed Regional Chairman. I believe that the previous Chair- man, former Ajax Mayor Jim Witty, has some explaining to do. This whole escapade totally smacks of "cronyism" and throws dirt in the faces of the voters who threw Mr. Anderson out of office in Ajax. An explanation of this whole disgusting process is badly needed.l am a very disappointed Ajax voter.

The English language is a confusing, mixed-up beast -just ask my son, Jason. Jason's Grade 2 class has entered the world of the spelling test. It's a lesson in contradiction that can leave a child in wide-eyed wonder or teary-eyed frustration. Words are my job. They come via E-mail and fax, computer and tele- phone and sometimes even through Canada Post. Words are so much part of my routine I take them for granted and sometimes forget English often makes little sense, especially to a seven-year-old. There's nothing like a Grade 2 spelling test to jolt you back into reality. The first spelling test of the year saw Jason tackle words beginning with 'w'. Words like when, where, with and went. My suggestion that he make a sound like the wind to remem- ber his 'wh' words fell short of the mark when he tried to apply it to with and want. The wind sound fell by the wayside after where and were. Next, we tried words that sound the same - look, cook and shook. Suc- cess! We like these words and they like us. But the honeymoon was short-lived. Where, pair and share might sound the same but that's where the similarity ends. This next spelling test introduced a new challenge - homonyms. How come last week we spelled there t -h -e -r -e and this week we're spelling it t -h -a -i -r? Jason's answer when he mixes them up: "it's close enough". Jason takes the whole spelling thing in stride - but then he's only been at it a short while. I've been spelling the same way for 19 years and suddenly the copy editor comes along and yanks the carpet out from under me. We recently tossed out Webster in favour of the Oxford Dictionary in an attempt to bring language usage in the News Advertiser more in line with Canadian schools. So those of us who dropped the u in colour, honour and valour when we graduated from journalism school are struggling to re -introduce it. Our forefathers dropped excess baggage like double I, in and t to save time in the manual typesetting process. But computerization has erased the need to drop excess letters so we're back to traveller, modelling and councillor. The one I'm having trouble with is 're'. The centre will always be the center in my mind and the copy editor is in- sisting on theatre, meagre and lustre as well. We're learning to spell all over again in the newsroom but something's missing. When Jason does well on his spelling test the teacher draws a big smiley face and says Good for You!' Perhaps the copy editor could inveA in a book of inspirational quotes and team to how to draw. Stickers are nice, too!

Charges Iaid Police probe `new' allegations of indecent assault involving retired Durham principal BY STEPHEN SHAW DURHAM STAFF OSHAWVA -- Durham Regional Police are looking into "several" new complaints from alleged victims of a retired public school principal charged with indecently assaulting a student in the early 1980%. The new allegations surfaced following last Wednesday's arrest of the 69 -year-old man, who was the principal of four Durham Board of Education schools over a period spanning three decades. Detectives with the sexual assault unit plan to arrange interviews in the coming weeks with the new complainants, all adult males who previously attended schools where the man was principal, Sergeant Jim Grimley said. It's believed the case could further snow- ball, the sergeant said. "There are now sever- al more persons who have come forward al- leging sexual improprieties between the sus- pect and themselves, and we fear there may be other victims who are hesitant to come forward. "Many people probably struggle with this for years and it is not until they read about others who have come forward that they get the courage to do so themselves" The former principal of T.R. McEwen Public School, who now lives in Lindsay, was charged following an investigation into allegations made by a 31 -year-old Oshawa man. The complainant said he was touched in a sexual manner on several occasions while he was a Grade 7 student at T. R. McEwen in 1981. The complainant was a "troubled" 14 - year -old at the time who was having difficul- ties at home and school when the principal "befriended him," Sergeant Jim Grimley said. The incidents are alleged :-) have taken place at the principal's home at the time in Oshawa and his office at the Wilson Road South school. Percy Norman Beimess is charged with one count of indecent assault on a male. He was released on conditions that he not be in the company of a child under 16 without the presence of an adult and is to appear in court Dec. 19. A board of education official said Mr. Beirness was principal of Woodcrest public school from 1964-69, Adelaide McLaughlin public school from 1969-77, T. R. McEwen from 1977-81 and Dr. C. F. Cannon public school from 1981-85. Any former students with information in the case are asked to contact the sexual as- sault unit at 579-1520, ext. 5371. Police sweep in downtown Oshawa ends in 90 charges BY STEPHEN SHAW DUM RHASfAf+ Durham Regional Police, vowing to "clean up" the city's downtown core, has launched a massive campaign which resulted in 90 crim- inal, municipal and liquor -related charges dur- ing its first weekend. Operation Clean Sweep got off to an aus- picious start Friday with a show of police strength in and around the four corners which included 22 uniform officers, two "paddy - wagons ' and five marked police cruisers. The project is aimed at tackling "problems such as drunkenness and disorderly conduct' many of them associated with the thousands of patrons pouring out of downtown bars after closing time, Sergeant Jim Grimley said. "The overall goal is to address some of the problems we've identified through the year, for example the fights, the disturbances from patrons coming out of local bars;' he said. "We know there are also problems of drugs WW prostitution in certain areas and we hope the high presence alone should help take care of it... -Taking back the downtown would certain- ly be a good way of describing (the intent of the operation). We tend to forget there are still people who live in and around the down- town" Sgt. Grimley said residents have long com- plained they are fed up with disturbances, fights, garbage and "people urinating on their Michael Strohyj, 52, of Markham. He is charged wi,h possession of stolen property. Insp. Reid said the man charged has no con- nection to the drug store or Hostess, and he added more charges may be laid in the case. Insp. Reid said there were no Jerry's em- ployees charged in the theft and no evidence to suggest the store was aware the chips were stolen. Detectives are still investigating. City woman charged with welfare fraud OSHAWA -- A 27 -year-old Oshawa woman has been charged with illegally collecting $78,240.14 in general welfare and family bene- fits during a seven-year period. An investigation by the Durham Region So- cial Services Department showed the woman received payments between June, 1989 and Au- gust, 1996 while living with her husband, Durham Regional Police said. They lived in Oshawa, Whitby and Newcas- tle at different times, police said. lawns" On Friday, the first night of the project, po- lice laid five criminal, 61 bylaw and 10 liquor - licence charges against people for a variety of offences. The next night they laid two crimi- nal, eight bylaw and three liquor -related charges, as well as one under the Highway Traffic Act. The sergeant said similar projects have been carried out in the past but none of the same magnitude. Barbara Kelly Gibbons of Barrie Street was arrested Thursday by detectives with the major fraud unit. She is charged with seven counts of perjury, five counts of uttering a forged docu- ment and one count of fraud over $5,000. Sergeant Jim Grimley said the case is the 43rd passed on to police by the social services department in 1997. Combined, the cases total $997,383 in alleged fraud. Last year police received 67 cases involving $1.3 million.

Great potato chip heist solved WHITBY -- Durham Regional Police have solved a $2,000 potato chip heist, recovering more than half a cargo of crunchy snacks swiped from a truck in Scarborough. A Hostess Frito-Lay trailer carrying more than 220 cases of Life Brand chips was stolen Nov. 6. It was found abandoned five days later - minus the munchies - on Victoria Street in Whitby, police said. Inspector Greg Reid of 18 Division said about a week ago a Hostess employee shopping at a local drug store purchased a bag of the Life brand chips. "He took the bag back to the company and it was identified by the bar code as belonging to the stolen load," said Insp. Reid. He said officers recovered 122 cases of the chips when they executed a search warrant at Jerry's The Drug Warehouse on Brock Street North. Further investigation resulted in the arrest of WW prostitution in certain areas and we hope the high presence alone should help take care of it... -Taking back the downtown would certain- ly be a good way of describing (the intent of the operation).

A Durham Region staff report notes water and sewer user rates could rise by between five and eight per cent annually from 1999 to 2002 to help pay for growth. "In order to limit the re- quired user rate increases to more moderate levels", the Region may have to restrict development to areas with existing water and sewer capacity or to areas where the services can be feasibly provided, the report says. Presented to a joint ses- sion of Durham's works. fi- nance and planning com- mittees Wednesday, the rc- port says the Region could also put off some projects until the money is available. review development charges and consider a levy on builders of non-residential development. Durham finance commissioner Jim Clapp told the committee the water and sewer services arc "self- supporting (through user fees and de- velopment charges). There's no money from the general levy (funded by taxes)... The Region plans to spend about $19.2 million on water -related pro- jects next year, including construc- tion of' watermains to new develop- ment in the southern portion of Durham and repairing deficiencies in the system. Sewer -related projects costing about $10.7 include improving or ex- panding existing facilities, and re- STEVE PARISH 'Warning lights coming on' Make baby's birth a labour of love PICKERING — Creating a positive birth experience is the topic of an up- coming presentation.

Mr. Clapp cautioned that funding for sewer projects next year is contingent upon anticipated revenue from de- velopment charges. "We're doing the same thing as the last few years, something we don't like to do. We're using future pro- jections to fund capital pro- jects:" Mr. Clapp said. "It has been a little bit of a task to come up with financing this year. He noted conservative estimates were used to ensure enough money will flow in to pay for sewer projects. Ajax Mayor and planning com- mittee chairman Steve Parish said, "You don't have to be overly brilliant to see the warning lights coming on." Increasing user rates by eight to 10 per cent over the next three to five years "isn't going to be acceptable to the users at it time they're facing tax increases because of pooling. They'll see it as a tax increase:' He added development charges — fees imposed on developers to pay for growth -related costs such as water mains, sewers and roads — haven't increased since 1991. "Basically, the message I want to send is we have some real problems here. "Users should not have to pay the costs for growth. Users will be pay- ing for the growth and that's not fair to the existing users;' Court. Parish said. He suggested the Region might want to start imposing a development charge on non-residential growth, such as new industry or business.

An Oshawa couple has found out how great the problem has become. A 49 -year- old man's 1990 GMC Sierra was stolen last Tuesday while it was parked at the GO lot on Bloor Street in Oshawa, Durham Re6onal Police .aid, Seven davc later, hie 50 -year-old %%ife's 1991 GMC Jimmy van- ished from the same lot. "Neither of their vehicles has been re- covered;" Sergeant Jim Grimley said. The theof the woman's vehicle Tues- day was one of three at the GO parking lot that day. "Over the past week there have been several parking lots targetted where vehi- cles are parked for a long time ... I think when you have three in one day (between 7 a.m. and 7:30 p.m.) you have to assume it is a group of thieves. It's not a coinci- dence." Stn. Grimley said. adding no par- ticular make or model has been singled out. photo by Jason Liebregts Friendly competition Pickering resident Adam Smith, with the help of Jannette Desonsa work their way through the wheelchair slalom course during the recent Disabled Children's Games sponsored by the Durham Regional Police at the Picker- ing Recreation Complex.

Grimley said. The loca- tions are common targets for car thieves since the vehicles there are such easy prey. •'The reason is you have a large parking lot where there are a large number of vehi- cles left unattended for long periods of time. It provides a good opportunity for thieves to take the car and use it for what- ever purpose before the owner knows it's even gone;' said Sgt. Grimley. Employee parking lots at the General Motors plant in Oshawa have also been a favourite target, he added -The warning by police comes as the number of auto thefts in Durham Region in 1997 continues on pace to smash last year's record-setting total. In the first 11 months of the year, 2,840 vehicles were stolen across the re- gion. That's up from 2,562 in the same pe- riod of 1996, said Sgt. Grimley. He advised owners who can afford it to have alarms installed in their vehicles and those who can't, he said, should resort to cheaper "steering lock bars" for protec- tion.

For some, it may mean getting caught in a traffic jam when you're already late for a meeting. For others, the pressure of get- ting the kids bundled up and dropping them off at school on your way to work may bring on anxiety. But few associate stress with small children. Instead, we may describe chil- dren as being "hyperactive, anx- ious or unable to focus;' reports Durham Board of Education so- cial worker Claire Carr. "Whatever we choose to call it, children do experience various forms of stress;" says Ms. Carr. who has been working on a pilot project along with fellow social worker Diana Scutt for the last two years which teaches children how to deal with stress. The pair work in Ajax, Picker- ing. Uxbridge and Scugog and have been contacted by a number of schools there to help children learn to relax, tailoring the pro- gram to meet specific needs. At Glengrove Public School in Pickering, for example, they work with a primary diagnostic class and a class of students with various behaviour problems. Ms. Carr and Ms. Scott visited the school six times — one hour, once a week — and provided supplementary material to teach- ers to use throughout the school year. Part of the program involved playing soft music and teaching children breathing techniques through such exercises as **jelly belly, spaghetti toes, walking through honey and floating on clouds". Children had an exercise book, in which they would write or draw things they are good at, things that make them feel good and how they look when they feel relaxed. "We talked to kids about how they felt when they were rushed," notes Ms. Carr. "We helped them get in touch with that feeling and to get in touch with a special place when they need to relax." For some children, that special place could be their family cot- tage, their bedroom, a spaceship, or even a place they've imagined. like candyland. "Kids are getting it:" says Ms. Scott. "They remember it and they're using it." Teacher Suzanne Zakis agrees. Since the program began, she has noticed "a definite difference in my children. They have be- come more self -aware. I have seen them practise deep breath- ing when they're feeling stressed. It has heightened their awareness about stress: ' While some children may come to school feeling frazzled because of circumstances at home, many feel stressed when they are in a close space with a large number of children, when they have to organize themselves at the end of the day and don't want to forget something, or when they are in a learning situa- tion. The program also "helps chil- dren in the schoolyard;' reports Ms. Zakis. "Children tend to be- impulsive. eimpulsive. When they arc stressed, they don't think logical- ly about how they should deal with a situation. The program en- courages reflection, so they are better able to get themselves a bit relaxed before taking the next step." Learning about stress also gives children "an out. It is an opportunity 1'ri for them to acknowledge that stress is something C. photo by Andrew Iwanowski Jeffrey Nicholson takes part in a stretching exercise as part of a stress management program for youngsters of- fered at Glengrove Public School in Pickering. The pro- gram is also taught at other schools in the Ajax and Pick- ering communities. within their control," maintains Ms. Scott. "They can take ownership of it, rather than thinking 'I'm bad' or 'I'm stupid'. They realize it is a normal human state." Children also learn "stress can be a good thing." adds Ms. Scott. "It's an adrenaline rush that may he helpful when you've got a homework assignment to do or have a busy street to cross." Ms. Carr and Ms. Scott en- courage teachers to continue pro- grammes on their own after the formal programme ends. Teach- ers can, for example, place a ccs in dfcct until December 31, 1991 rivi HAS IT "highlight jar" in their class- room. Students write about something that made them happy on a piece of paper and place it in the jar. "We're talking about little things that happen every day, like someone smiling at you or get- ting your favourite breakfast. It's not about a trip to Disney World, because that's just not going to happen for most children," says Ms. Scott. "If a child is having a bad day, they can pull a highlight out of the jar. Hopefully, it will make them feel better." D C�S't� s°NQS.

Suspect uses fake bombs during holdups Security cameras have blown the cover of a bank bandit who's left a trail of fake bombs during a crime spree stretching from Whitby to Montreal. Durham Regional Police have released videotape im- ages of the robber wanted in a string of holdups, including heists Sept. 26 at the Scotia Bank on Brock Street North in Whitby and Dec. 4 at a TD Bank in Peel Region. During the Whitby robbery, a man carrying a black brief- case approached a teller with a holdup note saying he was armed with a gun and a bomb. He was given the cash but be- fore fleeing placed a box which looked to be a bomb on the bank's counter, police say. The Explosive Disposal Unit determined the package to a be a fake. In addition to the incident in Peel last week, the same bandit is believed responsible for similar robberies in Toron- to, Ottawa and Montreal, po- lice say. He is described as white, about 50, 57' to 5'9", 140 to 150 pounds, with blond hair, possibly in a ponytail. He also wears glasses and has "feminine features:' po- lice say.

The programme, which is as popular now as it was when it first began, provides hands-on experi- ence to 13,000 students an- nually. An additional 2,500 Grade 6 students participate in a three-day, two -night residential programme at Durham Forest. The Outdoor Education centres at Claremont and Nonquon give students from Grade 2 up to OAC an op- portunity to experience na- ture first-hand. The full-day and half-day programmes are carefully designed to match in -class curriculum in such areas as environ- mental studies, geography and environmental science. The centres run year round, with only a few days each semester reserved for staff training. All centres arc staffed by one teacher at each location from the Durham Board who has applied for the op- portunity to work at a centre for a three-year term. Co-op students assist at each loca- tion. In addition, Cathy Gai- berg, the only non -teacher on staff, serves as an inter- preter/naturalist at Clare- mont. Mike Whitmarsh is cur- rently the programme facili- tator, Outdoor and Environ- mental Education at Clare- mont. Mr. Whitmarsh, who took a pay cut from his job as head of the Geography Department at Oshawa Cen- tral Collegiate, clearly loves his work. "This is a fantastic op- portunity to work with chil- dren of all ages," said Mr. Whitmarsh. The biggest joy is when children discover the great outdoors for the first time. "When we were chil- dren, our parents could let us just go and play for the day", explains Mr. Whit- marsh. "This is no longer an option for most children." Mr. Whitmarsh explains this is particularly true for kids from lower-income families or children who come from the more built- up areas of Durham. Visit- ing an outdoor education centre is a first-time experi- ence for many of these kids. He spoke of a young child who recently visited the centre at Claremont. He was so excited he didn't want to leave and asked if he could bring his family to meet Mike. Visiting classes can se- lect from a variety of pro- grammes. For example, if a class is currently studying trees. then they can register for a tree programme. Chil- dren take a hike in the woods and learn to identify various trees and discover the role each species plays in the ecosystem. The children learn how the natural ecosystem inter- connects with our own lives and the health of the urban community. The students learn very quickly that if you put chemicals in a stream to kill algae, the same chemicals will eventu- ally end up in our drinking water when they arrive downstream. Even lunch breaks pro- vide a learning opportunity for the students. All garbage is weighed and each class is rated according to the amount of trash they have brought along. Mr. Whitmarsh believes the respect the students learn for the environment at the outdoor education cen- tres will stay with them all their lives. Another long- term educational benefit is when teachers like Mr. Whitmarsh return to their regular classrooms, they take along with them the skills and knowledge they have acquired during their time as outdoor education facilitators. "I hope the decision - makers recognize the im- portance of outdoor educa- tion and the environment to present and future children," said Mr. Whitmarsh. Music festival held WHITBY — The music department at Anderson Colle- giate Vocational Institute is presenting an evening of perfor- mances entitled A Christmas Festival Wednesday, Dec. 17 at 7 p.m. The evening will feature all of the instrumental and vocal ensembles at the school, including the Senior and Junior Con- cert Bands, Junior Jazz and AnderJazz, the Senior Jazz Combo, the Concert Choir, the Ladies Chamber Ensemble and Jazz Tech.Tickets for the performance, available by phon- ing the school's music department or at the door on the evening of the performance, are $3 for adults, $2 for students and seniors and $5 for a family.

The 26 -member hand has visited OGH Christmas morning, "played a few car- ols on each floor -- no preaching — just to give pa- tients a sense that people care:' he says. "We do not use it in any way to attract new members. We do it because we feel it's something we need and enjoy when they find themselves in the hospi- tal on Christmas day" Ms. Marshall says she's not aware of any complaints about the Salvation Army hand's presence during Christmas. The Chaplaincy Associa- tion of OGH has developed a "new vision" for its service to respond to the needs of Chris- tians and non-Christians, writes Angela Mearns, OGH program leader, mental health and chaplaincy in a letter to the Salvation Army. As a result, policies and procedures which were ap- propriate in the past have been revised in order to better reflect present and future needs," writes Ms. Mearns. The letter also indicates Salvation Army volunteers can only visit hospitalized members of the brigade dur- ing the holiday section. "From my perspective, what we want to promote is our patients' choice in all this and that's the major thing;' says Ms. Marshall, adding it's an issue the hospital may be willing to "have another kook at it - in the context of the big- ger picture. "We really believe that the whole spiritual or religious side is very important to the healing of our patients and we continue to support the work of the chaplaincy asso- ciation and their desire in fact to broaden the different faiths that are involved in support- ing our patients" We have all the mailing and shipping services you need for the Holidays I LT i i li ,r 4V =MW (so don't panic!)

That common virus is one tough warrior BY SHAWN SIMPSON SPECIAL TO THE NEWS ADVERTISER We're kidding ourselves if we think the "cold war' is over. In reality, the fight has just begun. No, not the Russians. I mean those nastv little infectious agents known as the dread- ed rhino and corona viruses that infiltrate our systems of defence causing a runny or blocked nose, sneezing, sore throat, chills and muscle aches. The age-old question is how to we beat the common cold? Apparently. Canadians will try almost anything to win the battle. We ventilate, aspirate, constipate, hydrate, medicate, sometimes over -medicate, perspirate and inundate our bodies with vitamins all to either y prevent or rid ourselves of the hug. What's the answer? The fact is there is no "cure" j J, for the common cold, but depending on who you talk to, there are many dif- ferent ways of less- ening the Severn} and duration of the i symptoms. Some recommended treat- rnents however, well, let's just say they sound worse than the ailment itself. "If I had or was getting a cold or the flu, I had to go to bed with an old wool sweat sock safety -pinned around my neck:' re- calls Marilyn Simpson - my mom - of her childhood days. ' A mustard plaster was an- other home remedy we tried. Dried, hot mustard mixed with water was put inside a flannel sheet. it had to be flannel, and then placed on my chest.- Did hest"Did it work mom'? -I don't really know - it didn't hurt. I guess" Primitive? Perhaps, but then again maybe mom did know best or at least knew something we don't. Considering the amount of time and money people spend on trying to prevent or treat colds and flu are we really any better off today then when sweat socks around the neck were the rage'? Dr. Linda Panaro, associate medical offi- cer of the Durham Region Health Depart- ment, says there are studies available show- ing specific drugs provide marked improve- ments in cold symptoms. Citing a recent study conducted by University of Toronto doctors of the effects of zinc gluconate on patients experiencing early signs of a cold, Dr. Panaro says researchers noticed a "highly significant change" in those taking zinc lozenges as opposed to those given an inactive placebo. Of 100 volunteers, the 50 people who took zinc every two hours no- ticed improvements in their headache, cough. sore throat and nasal symptoms. The duration of the cold was also reduced from 7.6 days. the average length of time record- ed for those taking placebos. to 4.4 days when taking zinc. However, the zinc didn't have any affect on muscle aches, sneezing, fever or scratchy throat. and 80 per cent of them said they experienced more nausea. Few liked the taste as well. "I did notice an improvement;' says Dr. Panaro, who took the zinc challenge her- self. "And the taste didn't bother me" As for the benefits of the seemingly thousands of cold and flu medications on the market which, in part, accounts for Canadian households' almost $900 annual average health care budget (1992 Health Canada statistics), the issue is still hotly de- bated. In an article appearing in The Journal, an American publication. the chairman of a U.S. congressional hearing studying the ef- ficacy of over-the-counter cough and cold medications was quoted saying "The sad fact is. much of the billion -dollar cold med- ication industry may be based more on hype than on health care" The article goes on to explain the bene- fits of these medications is being increas- ingly called into question due to the "ab- sence of efficacy data on cough and cold medicines in children" and that there are How well do you know How well do you know your medications'?

"no assurances that these medications are being used correctly" Dr. Panaro says there's always concern over the proper use of medications. One potentially dangerous example, she says, is treating a viral infection in in- fants and toddlers with aspirin. "Parents are running the risk of Reyes Syndrome - a neurological disorder," she says. O "You never know if kids will develop Reyes when on aspirin" Another hotly debated health issue today is the use of herbal remedies. The rapid rise in the number of health stores, which sell herbal remedies, has some wondering how safe and effective they really are. "These drugs are not regulated - and they are drugs;' says Dr. Panaro who is now careful to ask patients what other med- ications they're on, including herbal reme- dies, when prescribing something for them. ' They have active properties that can ad- versely interact with other medications" Thomas Liu, owner of Nutrition World in Oshawa and also a licensed pharmacist, agrees there are some dangerous herbs on the market, but his method is to find out what the customer intends to use the reme- dy for before selling it to that person. For the most part, he assures, they are safe and effective. "You don't get the side-effects as you do with synthetic drugs;' says Mr. Liu. "With prescription drugs you are taking chemicals which are not natural. Herbs will do the same things for a mild condition with- out the side-effects" As a pharmacist, Mr. Liu stresses the need for pre- wription medication for more seri- ous problems and urges people to get to know their herbalist as they would their pharmacist or doctor. Seventy -four-year-old Nutrition World cus- 4 r tomer Kay Benham AO t 3 moon says she's "healthy as a horse" thanks to 50 years of taking herbal drugs. "My husband and I swear by echi- nacea(an herbal product believed to be an effective therapy against colds and flu);" says Ms. Ben- ham. "it is a tremendous drug, believe me. Although an out- spoken advocate on the use of echinacea to combat colds and flu, Ms. Benham admit- ted she recently came down with a bout of flu. But she blames herself for not taking her echinacea at the first signs of becoming ill. In the end, she says, she was forced to "put on a mustard plaster and that was the end of that" So, the debate continues on what's con- sidered the best therapy to prevent and treat colds and flu. While few people agree on the best treatments, all. including Ms. Ben- ham, stress the importance of educating ourselves and asking questions when in doubt. Lovell Drugs pharmacist Hanif Janif says too many people are anxious to run out and buy and try the latest fad. Like the craze over vitamin C a few years ago when it was reported that it could ward off a cold, people jump on the bandwagon in the hope of staying healthy: too much of anything, he . , cautions, isn't 4s healthy. "Really, what it boils down to is eating right;' R says Mr. Janif. "If you've taken care of that, you'll usually better off anyww ay:" �lFiB AD i''lMXPAWcmMww lXam;, RUM 27 ' ' Hispanic group celebrates a year PICKERING --The Hispanic Organization for the Latino Amigo (H.O.L.A.) celebrates its first anniversary g up the season with a musical demonstration, presentation of its annual Pickering. report and refreshments Saturday, Dec. pl n 2 . at �the Pickering Public Library, One The Esplanade. or Chrlstmas Call 428-9895 for more information.

Home Gard nin 9 Colourful legend behind the Christmas poinsettia The poinsettia is native to Mexico and originated in a rather limited re- gion near present day Taxco. Long before the arrival of Euro- peans, the Aztecs of Central Mexico cultivated the plant and called it Cuetlacxochitle. Because of its bril- liant colour, the poinsettia was a symbol of purity to the Indians. It was highly prized by kings Mon- tezurna and Netzahualcoyod. but could not be grown in their capital, now Mexico City, because of the high altitude climate. The Aztecs also had practical uses for the plant. They made a reddish -purple dye out of the bracts and a medicine for fever from the plant's sticky white fluid called latex. During the 1800s, a community of Franciscan priests set- tled near Taxco. When they found this bright red flower blooming natu- rally on the slopes during the Season of Advent (December), they used it to adorn their Nativity Celebration. This custom soon became a tradition throughout Mexico. Many stories from Mexico tell of the poinsettias enchantment. This my favourite: On a Christmas Eve long ago, Pepita was sad. This little Mexican girl wanted more than anything to give a special gift to the Christ Child at the church service. But she was wry poor and had no gift. As she walked sorrowfully to the church with her cousin Pedro, he tried to ckmsole her. "Pepita;' he said, "I am 04 0 In the r garden j with Veronica Sliva certain that even the most humble gift, given in love, will he acceptable in His eyes" So Pepita gathered a bouquet of common weeds from the roadside and entered the church. As she ap- proached the altar, her spirits lifted. She forgot the humbleness of her gift and as she placed it tenderly at the feet of the Christ Child, there was a miracle! Pepita's ordinary weeds burst into brilliant red blooms! They were called Floes de Noche Beuna, Flowers of the Holy Night. We call them poinsettias. Joel Poinsett was a Southern U.S. plantation owner and botanist who was appointed the first United States Ambassador to Mexico (1825 -29) - While visiting Taxco, he was im- pressed with this brilliant red flower he found blooming in December. He had some plant~ sent to his home in Greenville, South Carolina. Tbev did well in his greenhouse and be dis- tributed plants to his horticultural friends. A German taxonomist had al- ready given the plant the N)tanical name Euphorbia pulcherrima in 1833. The common name, poinset- tia, after Joel Poinsett however, has remained the accepted name for this plant in English-speaking countries. Unlike any other flowering plant. the poinsettia can he grown in sizes ranging from miniature to giant and in distinctive shapes including topi- ary trees and cascading hanging bas- kef p^pa:u oc1ein- ettia commonly thought of as the flower, are actuall) modified leaves caller bracts. These bracts turn colour in November anc December when the natura day length decreases. The true flowers are the smal yellow berries, called cy. athia, in the centre of the colourful bracts.

If the secondary bracts are not fully coloured, the plant will quickly fade and lose colour in the home environment. Dark, rich green foliage is a vital sign of good health. The foliage should appear dense and plentiful all the way down to the soil line. This is a good indication the plants have active, healthy root sys- tems. Poinsettias thrive in indirect natural daylight. Exposure to at least ,,ix hours daily is recommended Avoid any location where the plant i! exposed to direct sunlight. To pro long the bright colour of the bracts daytime temperatures should not ex reed 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Poinset tics require a moderately moist soil Water thoroughly when the soil sur face feels dry to a light touch. Do no allow the plant to sit in standing water. - t � ri+c� �i"-'>���i►§'�iib�v��'3siK�bilir �t�r�y�. »>ri• � � .�, � � � , : ;- News Advertiser rts &,!t/i te�tai�t1ffefft Newsroom 683-5110 FAX: 6£33-7363 Weekend at the movies...

Thirsty wants to quench fans' love of music Pickering band mate says group hopes to record indie CD in new year BY AL RIVETT STAFF REPORTER PICKERING — A local hand hopes music lovers will thirst for its material after sever- al months of developing a fol- lowing at area nightclubs. Thirsty, a four -piece group patterned in the mold of the suc- cessful alternative band The Cranberries, is setting its sights on gaining a local following, then recording an indie CD in the new year, says guitarist Eric wanner, 27, of Pickering. "We want to develop a posi- tive appeal and a fan appeal;" says Wanner, a pilot for Toron- to-based Ontario Regional Air- lines when he's not playing music. 1f you have a following, then you can have an influence on record companies. The bot- tom line for us is to have fun and we hope the audience will have a good time, too." Three months ago, the group cut a three -song demo at Scar- borough's Power Lines Studios. Wanner reports the recording Local band Thirsty hopes its original alternative music will take flight with an Indy CD in the works for early next year. From left are John Martorella, Amanda Williams, Stefan McEwin and Eric Wanner. Formed a year ago, Thirsty has been playing both orig- inal material and that of such alternative bands as the Cranberries which, says Wanner, they "cover to a T"'. An EMI talent scout re- cently took in one of the band's shows and was, says Wanner, "quite impressed" was finished in under six hours and has proven to be a positive tool for Thirsty in securing bookings in Durham Region and the Toronto area. Since the band was formed a year ago, it's been playing its own songs and performing ma- terial by such artists as The Cranberries, who Thirsty "cov- ers to a T;' notes Wanner. Thirsty also includes drum- mer John Martorella, a Toron- tonian employed as a flight in- structor at the Oshawa airport, vocalist Amanda Williams, also of Pickering, and bassist Stefan McEwin of Scarborough. The band's repertoire ranges from alternative to funk. Thirsty's long-range plan to get a record deal took a step for- ward recently when the presi- dent of ENII Beat Factory Records took in one of the band's shows and "was quite impressed with what we've done ;o far;' says Wanner. Wanner says 1998 will be a "make -or -break" year for hand members, as they'll continue to write tracks for their proposed album, to be produced indepen- dently and finished early in '98. "We want to take it seriously and make a name for ourselves. We want to look upon the hand as a business and we have a di- rection where we want it to go. So far, the response has been positive and we're happy about that" Whether or not a record deal is in the cards, Wanner says the enjoyment of playing music keeps the band's members to- gether. "It's something we really enjoy. The bottom line is we're i - happy Play- r ing in front of an audi- ence. If that's all it I winds up being, then that's what it's going to _ be. "Even if it means playing in front of no- body, we'll still be happy doing 4 it." SAT. -SUN.

ANNANDALE COUNTR1f_CLIJ Pickering curlers go for Olympic gold By AL RivErr SPORTS REPORTER PICKERING — A Pickering curler hopes his hot play on the prairies last week will continue in the Land of the Rising Sun two months from now. Richard Hart, 29, the vice on the Mike Harris rink of Scarborough's Tam Heather Curling Club, feels the foursome can win the gold medal at the Winter Olympic Games in Nagano. Japan in February. The rink emerged victorious from a world- class field of Canadian curlers at the Olympic trials in Brandon. Manitoba last week. "Obviously. I'm a little over- whelmed right now and very excited about our chances of winning an Olympic gold medal;" says Hart, who's curled with the Harris rink the past eight years. "It's the first (Olympic) Games where curling is a medal sport. It's hard to say that being in the Olympic Games was a lifelong dream, because I've always dreamed of winning the Canadian champi- onship or the world championship, but not necessarily an Olympic gold medal. But, this is by far the biggest thing in curling now. I would say it's bigger than the Labatt Brier (Canadian men's championship) or the worlds" The Harris rink, which also includes Pickering resident and second Collin Mitchell. 28. was a dark horse in a 10 -rink men's field at the Olympic trials which also drew past Canadian and world champions Russ Howard of Penetanguishene and Ed Werenich of Scarborough. But, the Harris team swept to a 7-2 record during the preliminary round to give it a bye tions in the province. "Curling is a funny game. You can have all the talented players who can make all the shots, but it doesn't trans- late into wins. Our team has an uniden- tifiable quality. I know it's acliche, but there's something there that you can't understand. We work well together. Mike and I communicate well and the other thing is we're all great friends. It makes losing a lot more bearable and winning a lot more fun. Those are part of the reasons for our success:" To prepare for Nagano, the Harris rink will travel to Red Deer, Alberta for a cash bonspiel on Wednesday, fol- lowed by another cash bonspiel in Richmond, B.C. in mid-December. Just prior to the Olympics, the rink may play at a major cash bonspiel in Switzerland which is likely to attract most of the European rinks which will represent their countries at Nagano. "We think we would like to make "lttc Mike Hams rink, out of Scarborough's Tam February. Rink members are, from left, Mike the trip to Switzerland to check out the Heather Curling Club, will represent Canada at Harris, Richard Hart of Pickering, Collin competition;' says Hart. the Olympic Winter Games in Nagano, Japan in Mitchell of Pickering and George Karrys. The tables now have turned for the Harris rink going into the Olympic Games. Longshots to be the Canadian representatives, the Ontario rink now has to be considered the favourite for the gold medal at Nagana But, says Hart, that doesn't put any undue pressure on his team. "We're used to being downplayed by the press and not favoured going into the trials, but there is some pressure in being the favourite rather than the underdog. Hopeful- ly, we'll see it as just a matter of winning an- other curling game. We're a relaxed group. I personally don't feel we'll be under any more pressure there than we were last week." into the final, then defeated current Canadi- an champ Kevin Martin of Alberta 6-5 in an exciting finale. Individually, Hart and Harris led the trials in shooting percentages for third and skip, respectively. "We really dominated the entire week;" says Hart, who moved to Pickering in May with his wife Margaret and three -week-old son Joseph. "Because we were playing so well, it would have been an upset for us to lose in the finals. We got hot and we were tough to beat" The Harris rink's success surprised the curling community in the rest of the country but not in Ontario, as it finished second to Howard twice in the past five years at the Ontario Men's Curling Championships. "Ed Werenich was interviewed on televi- sion and he was asked 'who is Mike Har- ris?';' says Hart. "He said 'it was no surprise to anyone in Ontario that these guys are doing so well'. It's just in the west that we're not known" Hart can't completely explain the Harris rink's successful season to date. But, it starts with the members being good friends off the ice and being able to communicate well on the ice. It also helps that they all rank con- sistently among the top curlers at their posi- Pickering bantams fall from first PICKERING — The Pickering Panthers Golden Griddle minor ban- tam 'AA' rep hockey team dropped out of first place in the Eastern Division after suffering its first offensive slump of the season.
