PICKERING ––Ajax High School Rams’ball carrier Ryan Harding attempts to break the grip of two St. Stephen’s tacklers at Pine Ridge Secondary School during playoff action in the Lake Ontario Secondary School Athletics (LOSSA) ‘B’devel- opmental rugby division Wednesday. The contest wasn’t completed due to a serious injury to a player from the Bowmanville school. It was reported the player dislo- cated his femur. The game was part of several playoff games played at the Picker- ing school. Durham tests its disaster readiness Emergency workers put through paces in mock emergency Boy finds handgun in Pickering BY JACQUIE McINNES Staff Writer DURHAM ––New provincial legislation will soon require annual drills of emergency plans but officials here, who were in testing mode Thursday, say it’s been standard procedure in Durham for a long time. “It’s something we’ve been doing for many years,” Scott Berry, an Ontario Power Generation (OPG) spokesman said. “It’s not in response to recent interna- tional events.” The emergency response exercise was held at Whit- by’s Iroquois Park Sports Centre, one of three emergency worker centres designated in the event of a serious acci- dent at the Pickering or Darlington Nuclear Generating stations. The Whitby recreation complex serves as a de- contamination centre for emergency workers who would be required to perform duties within the 10 kilometre pri- mary zone surrounding the nuclear plants. Any worker, including emergency, works department and hydro per- sonnel or bus drivers required to work in the affected area during a nuclear emergency, would report to the centre. There they’d receive a radiation reading, and if required, decontamination of themselves and their vehicles. The Thursday exercise was based on a simulated re- sponse to a loss of coolant at the Pickering station where an off-site evacuation was required due to a radiation re- lease in the accident. “This particular scenario today is way beyond a de- sign-basis accident,” said Bruce Nagy, emergency prepa- ration officer for OPG. “We had to fail a number of safe- ty systems to get the conditions necessary to set up the emergency worker centre. This is highly unlikely - one in seven million reactor years of operation.” There has never been an off-site radiation release in North America, although at Three Mile Island nuclear fa- PICKERING —A loaded handgun, possibly used in a week- end carjacking, was found by an eight-year-old boy Sunday, say Durham Regional Police. Police said a 30-year-old Toron- to man was picking up a friend on Geta Circle about 11 p.m. Saturday when he was attacked by a thug brandishing a handgun and de- manding the gold jewelry he was wearing. After a brief struggle, the victim and his girlfriend ran to a nearby variety store to call police, while the suspect and an accomplice got into the victim’s Honda and drove off, police said. About noon Sunday, an eight- year-old came home and handed his father a loaded .22-calibre handgun, along with keys belong- ing to the carjacking victim, which the boy had found near Geta Cir- cle, police said. The investigation is continuing. See DURHAM page 4 DURHAM ––More than 150 peo- ple, including young children, are being tested for tuberculosis after a Clarington resident was diagnosed with an active case of the respiratory disease May 17. Prior to diagnosis the patient made “several visits to Lakeridge Health Bowmanville’s emergency and after- hours clinic,” says Dr. Donna Reynolds, associate medical officer of health for Durham Region. The Durham Health Department and the hospital are work- ing to contact all patients and those peo- ple who may have accompanied the pa- tients to the hospital and inadvertently come into contact with the infected per- son, she says. For one family, news of the exposure has been very upsetting. Five-year-old Tyler Srigley, who came into contact with the TB patient while at LHB’s emergency department May 13, already has a weakened immune system, says his mother Colleen. Tyler has a long his- tory of medical problems that most re- cently includes a tumour on the side of his head. “He’s been a very sick little boy. He’s had a really rough life,” says Tyler’s mom. “I’m really upset by the whole sit- uation.” Although Ms. Srigley and all three of her children have undergone one preliminary test for TB, they must take another test 12 weeks after the ex- posure before health officials can tell them for certain if they contracted the disease, a bacterium that generally in- fects the lungs. Tyler and his 11-month- old brother Ryan must both undergo three months of antibiotics and vitamin B6 treatment as a preventative measure. “Those with impaired immune sys- tems or those under the age of six are recommended to start preventive antibi- otics without waiting the 12 weeks,” says Dr. Reynolds, because they can be- come far more ill from the disease if they do contract it. Healthy older chil- dren and adults are at much lower risk because contracting tuberculosis is less likely and it’s less serious for those indi- viduals, she says. “The risk of transmis- sion, even in these settings, is still very low,” she emphasizes. “But we don’t want to take any chances.” Two clinics are being set up in Bow- manville on Monday, June 5 and Tues- day, June 6 where those contacted can be tested. Alternatively their family doc- tors can conduct the test. Everyone who may have come into contact with the pa- tient is being notified, Dr. Reynolds says. The general public does not need to be alarmed, she adds. All health care workers who were in contact with the patient as well as family and friends of the victim will be tested also, she says. Although more than half of all iden- tified cases of tuberculosis are found in immigrants, in this case the patient is Canadian-born, says Dr. Reynolds. It is believed the person “was likely infected while travelling in an endemic country,” says Dr. Reynolds. “It does remind us we live in a global village. The chance of being exposed to this disease is less common in Canada but the risk must be acknowledged.” Travellers from Canada are not cur- rently tested when they return to the country, says Dr. Reynolds. There is a vaccine for those travelling for extended periods of time. Alternatively, travellers can have a test prior to and after return- ing from their trip to determine if they have been exposed and require medica- tion. Immigrants are tested for tuberculo- sis prior to admission to Canada. Those with active TB are not allowed into the country. Those with dormant TB - about one-third of the world’s population - are allowed to immigrate but must be mon- itored by the area health department in the municipality where they settle.

VILLAGE OF ABBEY LANE (PORT UNION & 401) (416) 283-1882 Kingston Rd.Hwy. 2 Hwy. 401Sheppard Ave. 91 Rylander Blvd. Village of Abbey Lane BY AL RIVETT Sports Editor DURHAM —At no other time in the six-year history of the Pick- ering Town Centre Mayors’Chari- ty Golf Classic has the success of the event been more critical. This year, proceeds from the annual event that brings together the mayors of Ajax and Pickering, the Durham Region chairman, cor- porate sponsors and a host of vol- unteers, will go towards expansion of the emergency department at Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital. The classic is at the Cherry Downs Golf and Country Club, in north Pickering, on Thursday, Sept. 12, with over 200 golfers ex- pected to take part. With the hospital’s emergency department overextended by more than 20,000 visits per year, the need for expansion is indisputable. “The fact that the hospital is over capacity means we have to raise a lot of money in this com- munity to make (the expansion) happen for the benefit of the com- munities. Everyone needs the services of a top-quality hospital,” said Ajax Mayor Steve Parish in an inter- view Wednesday afternoon fol- lowing the press conference at the Pickering Town Centre for the event’s kickoff. Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs echoed Parish’s com- ments, noting the need for the funds the golf classic will provide has never been greater. “This is a major fund-raiser in the community and it has always been highly successful,” he said in an interview. “It’s critically important that the tournament raises a lot of money — enough dollars to pre- serve the quality of health care in our communities.” Spokesman Katie Cronin- Wood said the hospital’s founda- tion is responsible for raising $34 million to support the approxi- mately $90-million expansion at the two Rouge Valley hospital sites (the other is Centenary in east Scarborough). She reported 51 per cent of the $34 million has already been raised. She noted Rouge Valley is ex- pecting an imminent funding an- nouncement from the provincial government for approximately $56 million for expansion pro- jects. Again this year, a host of com- munity-minded corporate spon- sors — including the Ajax-Picker- ing News Advertiser — have stepped forward to provide the event with the kind of clout need- ed to make it one of the biggest fund-raising vehicles in Durham Region. Among the corporate donors are lead sponsor, Pickering Town Centre, RBC Royal Bank, Ontario Power Generation, Cherry Downs and Sears. In the past six years, the classic has raised $675,000, all of which has supported the purchase of vital medical equipment for the hospi- tal. Tournament chairman Allan Arsenault, general manager of the Pickering Town Centre, was happy to report the 18-hole course is full for the event. The executive, nine- hole course still has spaces re- maining. To participate in the tourna- ment or to make a donation, call the Rouge Valley Health System Foundation at 905-683-2320 ext. 1501.

The total release at the perimeter of the nuclear site dur- ing that incident was 1/100 of the exposure allowed in a year for a plant worker. Still, if the un- thinkable ever happened, the agencies involved are in a state of readiness, says Dave Selby, Durham Regional Police Services spokesman. “That’s what we do, that’s what we prepare to do and that’s what we’re trained to do. You have to be ready and it’s not some- thing you should take lightly.” Although the exercise is not meant to test the people but the systems, it is a good opportunity for members of the various orga- nizations to get an understanding of the process, says Mr. Nagy. Six Durham service groups - Durham Emer- gency Measures Office, Durham Regional Police, Durham Emer- gency Medical Services, Whitby Fire and Emer- gency Services, Durham Region Works Depart- ment and Ontario Power Generation - participated in the Iroquois Park exercise. “The exercise highlights areas needing clarifica- tion and addition- al support and training,” says Steve Marchi, Durham Emer- gency Measures Office (DEMO) training and edu- cation co-ordina- tor. Volunteers from the agencies act as participants in the mock sce- nario. Some partici- pants were sent into the commu- nity, then returned to Iroquois Park where vehicles and hands were scanned for cont- amination. If the vehicle was found to be “contaminated”, the driver was directed to a car wash in the south parking lot, where it was sprayed down with water before being retested. Once the vehicles are cleared, the occupants must go through their own decontamination process. Depending where on the body contamination is found, that process can be as simple as washing their hands with soap and water or being vacuumed down to remove particles from clothing or could mean a full shower. This exercise is just one of many conducted every year by DEMO. On June 7, the Region will conduct a public evacuation exercise in Scu- gog using volunteers from a local high school.

The Education Ministry requires boards to report the average class size in an in- terim report in December and a final report in April. Last year the Province al- lowed boards to increase the number from 21 to a maxi- mum of 22 students per class on average. Last week’s board meet- ing agendas contained aver- age high school class size reports for both the Durham Catholic District School Board and the Durham Dis- trict School Board. At the public board, the average class is 21.05 stu- dents. The smallest high school, Cartwright in Scugog Town- ship, also has the lowest av- erage class, 14.92 students. Central Collegiate Institute in Oshawa was next at 18.08, followed by Uxbridge Secondary School (19.48), and Whitby’s Henry Street High School (19.91). At the other end of the spectrum, O’Neill Colle- giate and Vocational Insti- tute in Oshawa has an aver- age class size of 23.16, the highest in the board. The typical class at Pine Ridge Secondary School in Picker- ing has 22.61 students, while Pickering High School in Ajax has an aver- age of 22.36 students per class. The average class in the Catholic board’s seven high schools is 21.43. Class sizes are lowest at Monsignor Paul Dwyer in Oshawa, an average of 20.55 students. The average is 21.15 students per class at Ajax’s Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School, 21.38 at Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School, also in Ajax, and at Monsignor John Pereyma Catholic Secondary School in Oshawa, the average is 21.47. The highest class size is 22.13 at All Saints Catholic Secondary School in Whit- by, followed by Father Leo J. Austin Catholic Sec- ondary School in Whitby (22.08) and 21.56 at Picker- ing’s St. Mary Catholic Sec- ondary School. NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, May 31, 2002 PAGE 5 A/P Durham high school class sizes perfectly average RCMP probe gold mine murder BY STEPHEN SHAW Staff Writer PICKERING — RCMP officials say they are close to an arrest in a murder that occurred at a B.C. gold mine 10 years ago in which a Pickering man is their prime suspect. Albert Hrabchuk, 43, disappeared Aug. 20, 1992 after leaving his Prince George, B.C. residence to attend his mining claim about 45 kilometres south- east. Three days later the vic- tim’s charred body was dis- covered inside his burned- out vehicle near the remote property. Investigation showed Mr. Hrabchuk, who was married with two teenaged sons, was shot to death and his car and his body was set on fire in an attempt to destroy evi- dence, said a Mountie, speaking on condition he not be named. He said Mr. Hrabchuk had been embroiled in a “dispute over territory” with a neighbouring landowner, which police believe led to the killing. “They were both gold miners. There was a dispute over the land and one man was shot and killed within the mining claims,” said the source. A suspect later relocated to Ontario and settled in Pickering, he said, adding scientific advances led to a recent breakthrough in the case. “We were able to do some things with DNA we weren’t able to do in the past and that certainly con- tributed (to new develop- ments).” Members of the RCMP’s Prince George north district major crime unit are cur- rently in the region working with the assistance of Durham Regional Police.

I re- call serious conversations with my friends about what kind of children we were not going to raise. Like many prospective parents, I thought we were going to make a better world by raising our children differently. Unanimously, we agreed it is just appalling how some chil- dren behave in public. Contemplat- ing parenthood, I made tons of men- tal notes to self: never give in to child screaming for candy in the checkout line; never yell at child in front of other people; never resort to bribery when asking a child to co- operate; and never let children call adults by their first name. Coinci- dently, all of those notes seem to have been lost along the way. Somewhere between bringing my children home from the hospital and today, it occurred to me child and parent do not always read the same manual when it comes to par- enthood. For instance, in my version of the manual, I agree to feed, clothe, love, and provide a nurturing environment for my child. In turn, the child will show appreciation by picking up belongings, taking on small tasks to help out with daily routines, and will never attempt to argue or negotiate his or her way out of their part of the deal. There are obvious flaws with this arrangement. Various stages of par- enthood started to bring on diverse challenges. My pre-schooler provid- ed the opportunity to show family and friends who really ‘rules the roost’. Academy Award-winning perfor- mances took place as grandparents watched the entire scene of parent and child negotiating how much dinner will be eaten before a reward is given. Consequently, there were no winners. An entire book should be dedi- cated to raising children once they start school. The atrocious vocabu- lary and mannerisms that coincide with attending school could only come from the influence of their friends, right? After all, we know we raised our child better than that. Although it is just the language of kids sometimes, one-word respons- es like, “what? huh, and nope,” prove Miss Manners is not read by everyone. Thankfully, others don’t analyse behaviours as much as parents think. Nothing is personal and everything is ‘a phase’. Talking to other parents, it’s comforting to know we all do the best we can, and someday, society will take a step backward and undoubtedly give Mrs. Cleaver back the respect she so richly deserves. As far as parenting goes, you can leave it to Beaver Cindy Baird Opinion Shaper shouston@durhamregion.com P PAGE 6 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, May 31, 2002 Time to take note of development plans To the editor: Re: ‘Environmentalists should choose battles carefully,’ Martin Derbyshire col- umn, May 26. It seems Mr. Derbyshire doesn’t re- member his April 24 article in which he reports the Seaton lands in north Picker- ing are “slated for development of a com- munity with a population of approxi- mately 90,000.” In criticizing local environmental groups he states environmental planning “can be done without acting like the sky is falling just because a developer wants to build a few homes beside a golf course.” Can 90,000 people fit into a few homes? Maybe the environmentalists he is criticizing are concerned the sudden in- flux of so many people into our commu- nity will create hazards for all of us. Do any of us want to share Hwy. 401 during rush hour or GO trains with double the commuters? What will happen to the Seaton trails that so many have come to enjoy? Isn’t it time we all took note of ex- actly what is occurring, and make a stand? Write or e-mail your councillors and make your opinion known.

Editorial &OPINIONS PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER MAY 31, 2002 Editorial e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Letters to the editor e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com If you smoke, why not take a break from your habit, at least until tomorrow? While you’re at it, take the time to reflect on the ramifications of your decision to smoke and the benefits you can gain by quit- ting once and for all. Today is World No Tobacco Day, a concerted effort on the part of the World Health Organization (WHO) to get billions around the world to pause from their puffing for at least 24 hours. While the long-term destructive health effects of smoking to the smok- er are well-known, WHO is emphasizing the damage second- hand smoke causes to loved ones and innocent bystanders, forced to share breathing space with smokers. WHO says about 700 million children, nearly half the world’s population of youngsters, must put up with second-hand smoke. The organization also says second-hand smoke is known to cause sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), low birth-weight babies, bronchitis, pneumonia, other lower respiratory tract infections, and middle ear disease. For adults, the news isn’t much better. Second-hand smoke has been linked to heart disease, lung cancer and nasal sinus can- cer. There are even studies that show a connection between sec- ond-hand smoke and breast cancer and stroke. In Canada each year, it is estimated second-hand smoke exposure kills approxi- mately 330 non-smokers from lung cancer, while 2,000 more die from heart disease due to exposure. The Ontario Medical Association, in a 1997 position paper, says exposure to second-hand smoke is the third leading pre- ventable cause of death. There are many other reasons to give up smoking. In addition to the mountain of evidence detailing the health risks, those who puff are finding it more difficult than ever to find a public place to smoke. Every year, more and more municipali- ties and regions make the decision to ban smoking in restaurants and bars. Already, Toronto and Ottawa have instituted bans. Durham Region is in the midst of fashioning a regionwide bylaw that may ban smoking in local bars and restaurants. The time is long past when smokers could light up inside businesses, malls and public buildings. Smokers are becoming, slowly but surely, a distinct minority in our society. The latest Durham Region Health Department sur- vey numbers show just 20 per cent of adults in Durham smoke on an everyday basis. The trend has been downward over the past few decades and non-smoking campaigns, in addition to bylaws and societal pressures, indicate it will continue to drop. Give up smoking, for today at least. You may find it’s a habit you can well live without. Butt out, at least for today anyway So many health reasons for taking up the habit of World No Tobacco Day DURHAM ––Opportunities look bright for summer job seekers. The latest Employment Outlook Survey in Durham released by Man- power Inc. reveals 35 per cent of em- ployers in the region plan to increase their staff during July, August, and September. Just seven per cent plan to reduce staff and 54 per cent plan on remain- ing at current levels. Four per cent of business owners aren’t certain about hiring intentions. “Three months ago employers were similarly optimistic,” said Kim Murray of Manpower. “Thirty per cent reported hiring intentions and two per cent foresaw the need to trim personnel. A year ago at this time, the outlook was also healthy when 32 per cent said they would add workers and eight per cent predicted cutbacks.” Staffing opportunities are predict- ed in construction, non-durable goods manufacturing, transportation/public utilities, wholesale/retail trade, and public administration. Manpower vice-president and gen- eral manager Steve Walker said, “The decision by many employers to sig- nificantly add to their employee base sends a strong signal of confidence for the summer months. While some industries, including manufacturing, have not yet returned to seasonally expected levels of hiring, clear progress has been made from the pic- ture of three months ago.” Construction has been the sum- mer-time industry leader. The fi- nance, insurance, and real estate area is reflecting unusually strong hiring intentions with its best third quarter outlook in 14 years. But the education field is showing a pattern of slippage that has persist- ed since last year, says Manpower. The quarterly employment survey is conducted by Manpower Inc.

People only see the bad side, but he was a good father. He wasn’t a deadbeat dad,” the Oshawa mother of two said in an interview. Mr. Pellerin, who had convictions for armed rob- bery dating back to 1991, was released from prison in January after serving a six- year sentence. He promised to turn his life around for Tommy’s sake, said Ms. Haggerty, who also has a daughter, Dominique, age two. He had just landed a job about a month ago and had signed a written agreement to begin making child sup- port payments next month, she said. “He was always saying he was going to do better, make things positive for Tommy. He was the most important thing in his life,” Ms. Haggerty said. Ms. Haggerty, 31, who has had an on-off relation- ship with Mr. Pellerin since 1993, said he had been liv- ing with his mother in Scar- borough since his release, and Tommy spent every weekend with his father. “Tell people he was a wonderful dad, when he was being a father, and that he was loved dearly by his son and family. I loved him, too,” she said. Each Friday, Tommy would come home from school and wait excitedly for his father to pick him up, Ms. Haggerty said. Mr. Pellerin would help Tommy with homework and take him inline skating, to movies and parks, she said. On March break, he took Tommy to the Science Cen- tre. Two weeks ago he bought him a scooter for his birthday. Sunday afternoon, Mr. Pellerin returned Tommy to his mother’s home about 4 p.m. and stayed for about 45 minutes before saying good- bye. “He gave him a hug and kiss and told Tommy he loved him. They always gave each other a hug and kiss. Steven would say, ‘See you next week, Champ.’” According to Durham Regional Police, at 5:45 p.m. a man entered the Zellers at 555 Simcoe St. S., approached the customer service desk and demanded cash. The robber flashed a black handgun, tucked into his waist: “Don’t make me do it,” he threatened the clerk. The bandit scooped a large amount of cash from the till and fled to a white Chrysler registered to Mr. Pellerin, which squealed its tires as it peeled out of the parking lot. Police spotted the vehicle a short time later headed west on Hwy. 401 in Ajax, but officers lost sight of the car after a short pursuit. A few minutes later, po- lice searching the Pickering area spotted the car west- bound on Kingston Road. The car sped toward the intersection at Port Union Road, where it collided with a van carrying a family of five, hit a pole and burst into flames. Witnesses said officers at the scene drew their weapons, while the trapped driver struggled inside the burning car. The driver of the van suf- fered broken bones while his family escaped serious injuries. Dental records were needed to positively identify Mr. Pellerin. The Province’s Special Investigations Unit sent 12 investigators to the scene and has designated four Durham police “witness of- ficers.” Ms. Haggerty says she is haunted by images of Mr. Pellerin’s last moments and wonders why no one appar- ently tried to help. “Why wouldn’t someone at least try to put the fire out? There are fire extin- guishers in police cars, couldn’t one of (the officers) have tried? “Why would you just let a man just sit there and burn, (even) if he may have had a gun in the car. Somebody could have tried to help him,” she said. Durham police said they are not permitted to com- ment while the SIU investi- gation is ongoing. Ms. Haggerty said she saw television news footage of the crash late Sunday and her worst fears were con- firmed by a phone call Mon- day morning. “Tommy heard me crying and it woke him up. I told him his dad was in a car ac- cident. He asked me if his daddy was OK. I told him he wasn’t... “He said ‘My one eye is crying.’ He calls them drops.” She later sat with Tommy and helped him write a letter to his father. “I love you daddy for being my dad. Thank you for taking me to a lot of places. Thank you for being nice to me. I wish you didn’t die,” wrote the Grade 1 stu- dent in big red letters. “We will pray for you and God please take care of daddy... Thanks for getting me a scooter. We all really miss you. Thanks for being the best dad in the world. Love always and forever your son, Tommy.” Mr. Pellerin was normal- ly a kind, passive person, Ms. Haggerty said. “I don’t know what was going through his head. I don’t have a clue. I really didn’t think he would do something like this again. I don’t know why. “I want to apologize to the family that got injured and the victim (of the rob- bery).” NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, May 31, 2002 PAGE 7 P Former wife says dead robbery suspect ‘a good father’ Steven Pellerin, seen here with son Tommy in a photo shot approximately five years ago, died Sunday in a fiery Scarborough crash while fleeing police. He was a suspect in an Oshawa robbery and was being pur- sued by police. The crash occurred near the Scarbor- ough-Pickering border.

For seven years, PPHS has played host to the only year- end formal available to spe- cial-ed students in Durham Region. Organizers say the tradi- tion just became a natural ex- tension of PPHS’s At-Home, an annual formal for under- graduates usually held on a Friday night around the end of May. “We always decorated the gym for the At-Home but it seemed such a waste, to have all these great decorations you can’t use again,” explains Cathy Chilton, lead teacher of special education. So PPHS began keeping the decorations up in the school gym until the follow- ing Monday morning, invit- ing special-ed classes from across the Region for their own formal during the day. “We wanted to give them an opportunity to do some of the things you’d regularly do at high school,” Ms. Chilton says. “It’s what kids do in high school. They go to a prom. “And they love it. They have more fun than the kids who come Friday night,” she says, adding a queen, king, princess and prince will be crowned just like at Friday night’s At-Home. This year’s theme was ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory’ and came complete with huge candy canes lining simulated choco- late-covered walls. Monday’s At-Home was organized by PPHS’s Ambas- sador Program, made up of about 30 students, who spear- head leadership projects around the school. The Ambassadors took a break from hosting the pro- ject in the last few years when extracurricular activi- ties had come to a stop at schools across Durham Re- gion. PPHS’s special educa- tion program continued the At-Home in their absence but are glad to have the students back on board as organizers. “They get to see what hap- pens when you give some- thing to students less fortu- nate,” Ms. Chilton says. “I think it’s amazing to see the kick everyone gets out of it,” adds Aaron Alton, the morning’s master of cere- monies and a PPHS ambas- sador. Community groups and local businesses have donated prizes for spot dances and other activities and each of the 15 schools invited will have a class picture taken at the formal, he says. “They have little dances throughout the year, but this is the big one,” he explains. So much so in fact, special education programs across the Region plan all year to put aside enough money in their travel budget to make the trip north to the At-Home, says Harold Williams, a teacher heading up the Am- bassador Program.

Avoid Overheating on the Road Check Cooling System, Engine For Leaks (MS) — When your car’s cooling system fails, the engine overheats. And when the engine overheats for a very long time, metal parts can become seri- ously damaged and require expensive repair. Most often, overheating results when the coolant level is too low or when there is a leak in the system. During the summer, just driving in stop-and-go traffic or hauling a car loaded with vacation baggage and gear on a hot day with the air conditioner running is enough to overheat the engine. COOLANT LOSS According to engineers a low coolant level leads to overheating because there isn’t enough fluid in the system to absorb the engine’s heat. The air in the system that is absorbing these high temperatures is a poor heat con- ductor and won’t do an effective job of transferring the heat to the radiator. Cars, pickups and SUV’s have white-colored coolant recovery tanks that have markings on the tank indicat- ing where coolant levels should be when the car is running and when it’s not. If the coolant level is low after repeated fillings, you probably have a leak in the sys- tem. COOLANT HOSE LEAKS Hoses are the most likely source of leaks because they are structural- ly the weakest components of the cooling system. Hoses must be flexible to absorb vibration, so they are made of rubber compounds. Rubber, unfortu- nately, is not as durable as metal. According to experts, intense engine heat can harden and crack even the best rub- ber; oil can soften and swell it; the simple passage of time can break down a hose’s internal bonding; and electrochemi- cal degradation can crack the tube. Four years of field tests on fleet vehicles show that electrochemical degradation of the hose tube is by far the most frequent reason for cooling system hose failure. The con- dition eventually will pro- duce a pinhole leak or will cause the hose to burst before it has reached its expected service life. Hose and liquid coolant (water and ethylene-glycol antifreeze) exist in an envi- ronment that forms an electri- cal path between two metal connectors like the engine and the cooling system radia- tor. This causes micro- cracks within the hose tube which allow the coolant to attack the hose reinforce- ment. It eventually weakens the yarn material. Accelerated by high under- the-hood temperature and constant flexing, the hose could rupture or leak under normal pressure. REPLACE OLD HOSES A safe service life of four years is recommended for all coolant carrying hoses, espe- cially the upper radiator and bypass hoses. After four years, Gates explains, the incidence of hose failure increases sharply to the point where motorists should consider having the hoses replaced to avoid high- way problems. In many instances, hose leaks occur at faulty connections to the inlet and outlet pipes. Make cer- tain the hose clamps are secure. When replacing a hose, it’s also a good idea to replace the clamps. Traditional worm-drive clamps or the new, thermo- plastic heat-shrink clamps work best. While you are having the hoses replaced and the cooling system serviced this spring, ask your technician to check for other coolant leak paths. Fluid-loss problems may also be attributed to leaks at the water pump, radi- ator assembly, radiator cap, or engine drain plugs.

The lure of the open road is quite addictive, and the worries of the day can melt away with the purr of an engine and a far-off destination in mind. However, summer jaunts in the car can take an unexpected turn if your vehicle is not properly pre- pared for the trip ahead. Nothing can ruin a vacation faster than spending most of it pulled over on the side of the road, or enjoying the view from the front seat of a tow truck. Following are a few tips to make sure your vehicle is in top shape before setting out on the road. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Check the brake lights, turn signals and dashboard lights. • Test the horn • Make sure you have enough coolant in your system. If it gets too low your car may overheat. • Check shocks and struts by pushing down on the hood as hard as you can. If the car bounces like a yo-yo, you may have trouble. • Take a penny and insert it Queen’s head first in your tire tread at the most worn part of the tire. If you can see any of the Queen’s crown you may need new tires. • Check the trunk for mois- ture or rust, which indicates a water leak. • Look under the car for signs of mud buildup and inspect the garage floor for signs of leaks. Professional Advice • Change oil and get an overall tuneup. • Inspect and, if needed, fill washer fluid, radiator fluid, transmission fluid, brake fluid, differential fluid, and power-steer- ing fluid. • Change air and oil filters, and wiper blades if necessary. • Check the battery and tire pressure. • Check con- dition of hoses and belts. Blowing a hose or breaking a belt is bad anytime. • Check battery termi- nals. If you see signs of corrosion (whitish pow- der), have them cleaned. • Wash and wax to protect your car’s finish through- out the harsh summer heat ahead. • Enjoy the trip, but remember to drive careful- ly!

Each year, the Durham Catholic District School Board honours a teacher who has received positive classroom disci- pline and/or in- struction train- ing, and consis- tently demon- strated effective use of the tech- niques. Teaching expert Dr. Fred Jones created the program. Joe Visconti, vice-principal of St. Mary Catholic Sec- ondary School in Pickering, intro- duced Ms. Duane, whom he first met when he was principal at Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School in Ajax. “She wowed me every time,” he said of evalu- ating the new ed- ucator. “She was an excellent teacher.” Ms. Duane said the train- ing she received enables teachers to be “positive rein- forcers” in the classroom. DURHAM —Heroes of Hope Campaign members hope local school board em- ployees can contribute $1 million to a fund-raising goal of $30 million. Gary Down, the cam- paign’s education committee chairman, and campaign di- rector Andrea Russell spoke to Durham Catholic District School Board trustees at the May 22 meeting, discussing the campaign for a Regional Cancer Centre at Lakeridge Health Oshawa. Ms. Russell said a study showed more than 2,000 cancer patients are going outside the region for treat- ment. School board employees are taking part in a payroll- deduction plan to raise money for the centre, mak- ing a one- or two-year pledge, she said. Oshawa Trustee Joe Corey said there’s a percep- tion in the community that the money raised will help pay for the Oshawa hospi- tal’s new front entrance and cafeteria. Ms. Russell said the money raised in the cam- paign “is specifically for the cancer centre”. She ex- plained news of the cancer centre came out while there was a campaign under way at the hospital, leading to the confusion. Board chairman Mary Ann Martin, a cancer sur- vivor, said she had to drive to Toronto for treatment and the Oshawa facility would be “a godsend” for local people.

The members of the Ajax Al- liance Church youth group and two leaders leave July 3 for Trinidad and To- bago for three weeks where they will be living and working at the House of Young Christians, an or- phanage just out- side of Sangre Chiquito. Planning for the trip has been ongoing since September, said Dave Easton, youth pastor at Ajax Alliance. “The administra- tion involved in planning camp, getting the sup- plies, and getting them to Trinidad, and raising the money is pretty heavy,” he said. Sheena Stevens, one of the youth mem- bers, added orga- nizing a trip like this takes a lot of work. “You need to be very com- mitted to it. There are funds to raise, schedules to make, meetings to run — the list goes on and on,” she said. The House of Young Christians is a home for chil- dren whose par- ents are not capa- ble of taking care of them due to ad- dictions, abuse, or just abandon- ment, said Sheena. “Sadly, most of the kids are not orphans as we would think,” added Rev. East- on. “Most of them have parents who are alive, but not able or inter- ested in caring for these kids.” Sheena said the group has re- ceived an “awe- some” response from the community. “They have been very sup- portive through prayer and just helping us fund-raise. People are willing to help because they are just as excited about our trip as we are.” This is the second year members of the youth group will be working at the orphan- age, and Sheena couldn’t be more excited. “They (the kids) have to be the most incredible people I have ever met. Each of them coming from a fairly rough, hard and sad background are the most loving people I know. They don’t care who you are, they just want to hang out with you, they want to be your friend and sometimes are hap- piest just sitting next to you,” she said. She added the group has learned to appreciate what it has. “We came home with an overwhelming feeling of grate- fulness for our own families, homes, and country. After liv- ing for three weeks within the lifestyle of those in the homes, you begin to see how lucky you are at home.” Sheena noted the kids at the orphanage also teach them a few things. “One of the things we learn from the children is uncondi- tional love. Some people just need to feel loved, and that is why we want to go. Those kids just need to have someone be their friend.” A/P PAGE 16 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, May 31, 2002 Youth group ready for its mission Fax it: 905-683-7363 Youth Pastor Dave Easton shares a smile with Trinidadian orphan Celest at last year’s mission. in selected area’s LOOKLOOK for your for your COVERS flyer Dental Care for Adults, Kids and Great Big Babies.

Urban sprawl destroys much of our wildlife habitat, but gardeners can do their part for the environment and local wildlife by creating a pond or backyard wetland. Ponds & Waterfalls Stores carry many vari- eties of pond and waterfall kits and accessories, along with plant and other aquatic materi- als. Use these, rather than col- lecting species from the wild,as this puts stress on many "at risk" plants and their communi- ty. Some points to consider: Size:Using flexible rubber liner or preformed pond inserts, your only limitation on size and shape will be your imagination. For a deck or balcony, you can create the tranquility of a pond in a barrel or large plastic pot. Location:Ponds can be located in sun or shade; plant material should vary accordingly. Consider natural drainage pat- terns and the possibility of interference from large tree roots. Higher ground is best, to avoid runoff or toxins leached from nearby gardens. Depth and Contours:Consider the risks of predators such as raccoons in designing the depth and slope of your pond (straight sides with no shelves will deter them). If you plan to overwinter plants or fish, get advice from your garden cen- tre. (A pond more than 20 inches deep is considered a pool and requires fenc- ing and permit from local bylaw offices.) Creating Urban Wetlands Take a cue from nature by creat- ing a bog garden in a low-lying, slow- draining area or by using a pond liner or kit. Bog gardens can complement a pond, provide a transition habitat, and allow longer bloom periods with plants such as yellow flag, marsh marigold,marsh fern and hostas. You may want to add moisture from a soak- er hose or installed perforated pipe. A true bog is a highly acidic environment that can be mimicked with a 50/50 mix of sand and peat moss.

Pool par- ties are always a big hit and what better way to spend a hot lazy after- noon in the spring, sum- mer and fall. 2) CONVENIENCE Why spend money on a health club membership, when a swimming pool is within feet of your back door? A refreshing swim can take place any time of the day (no plan- ning is required). Day or night, swimming can take place in your own private backyard. 3) PHYSICAL FITNESS Swimming provides a total aerobic workout on your body, mind and soul. In water your body weight is much less and swimming uses every muscle in your body. Less time will be spent watching TV, and more time being physically active. After a sport activity a swim will also relax your muscles. Top 3 Benefits of Owning a Spa or Hot Tub 1) THERAPEUTIC The combination of turbidity and hot water creates a totally relaxing and soothing environment that helps take away the physical and mental aches and pains of the day. A hot water mas- sage is just what the doc- tor ordered. 2) SOCIAL A spa brings family and friends together by providing a relaxing and soothing environment where the lines of communication can be re-opened. 3. CONVENIENCE No need to drive to the local spa or gym, slip into your very own private, hot water massage cen- tre any time of the day or night, all year round. Benefits of Outdoor Home Entertainment Centres (NC)–For most people who work during the day, it’s difficult to find the time to enjoy their gardens on a daily basis. The easi- est way to maximize use of a garden is to add lighting. Nothing is as welcom- ing as a well-lit house say experts. Not only does good outdoor lighting add extra mileage to your land- scaping dollar, but it’s also an great safety feature. Ranging from cit- ronella candles to fixed lights, your garden can be aglow until the wee hours of the morning. But before you rush out and purchase new light fixtures, do a walk-about and plan which areas of your back- yard will benefit most from illumination. If using lights as a safety feature, consider timers, motion sensors and even underground wires to ensure lights throughout the garden become a per- manent feature. Timers and motion sensors are stronger deterrents for intruders as well as great energy savers. There are many dif- ferent types of lights to choose from and each one is designed to give a partic- ular effect. Spot lights are great for accentuating spe- cial features, such as water- falls or trees. But for a more subtle overall light- ing moon-lighting is your best bet because it’s hid- den in trees or bushes and is diffused by shadows from the leaves. It’s always a good idea to start with a plan. If you have pictures of your garden, bring them to the store and we can help you find the right lights. A pic- ture says a thousand words and helps us provide some great ideas. Let There Be Light in Your Garden Extended to June 30/02 Low monthly payments (OAC) 905-427-5551 By Nathalie Houde, Landscape Architect Of all the things that inspire us when we’re planning our gardens, the colors of the flowers and leaves often top the list. The key to a magnificent garden lies in the choice of colors and the juxtaposition of shades. Choose a color scheme, with one main color and two or three com- plementary colors from the same palette. The warm col- ors (yellow, orange and red) produce a joyous feeling. Their invigorating effect makes them perfect to place near the entryway, to make the whole garden more invit- ing. The cool colors (blue, purple and pink) are soothing, reassuring, soft and romantic. These col- ors add depth to relaxing corners and water gardens. Shrub foliage, a constant color throughout the whole summer, should also be con- sidered. In darker corners, make use of pale colors to add light. Colors and sea- sons: blissful har- mony! Why not play colors and seasons off against each other? If the lilac crowns your garden with pale purple in spring, choose red and pink roses for summer and bring in fall with the yel- lows and oranges of ornamental grasses. Natural gardening Natural gardening no longer means using no products whatsoever and allowing plant dis- eases and pests to destroy your gar- den. What it means today is learning about gardening methods and using green-thumb tricks and sound advice to reduce product use to a minimum. Here is some advice that will help you on your way to natural gardening: • Good soil preparation • Regular manual weed- ing • Regular, deep watering • Buy healthy, resistant plants • Use mulch • Inspect your plants regular- ly • Identify the cause of any damage (disease, insects, mold, etc.) • Consult with a specialist to help you decide which products to use.

Durham public board debates change to smoking policy DURHAM —Public school board members last week rejected a motion from Pickering Trustee Paul Crawford because they said it read that trustees were encourag- ing student smoking. Initially, Trustee Crawford’s motion at the May 21 Durham Dis- trict School Board meeting stated in part trustees “endorse and en- courage a target of (_) per cent smoking and tobacco use by all students.” He said he left the figure blank so trustees could arrive at a percentage. “Why on Earth would we have any motion that uses the words, ‘encourage and endorse a target of smoking?’ asked Brock-Uxbridge Trustee Nancy Loraine. Scugog Trustee Martin Dem- mers suggested some “word- smithing” was in order, and pro- posed the motion read trustees favour “a reduction target of 10- per cent smoking”. “The issue here is we already have a policy,” Trustee Loraine re- sponded. “The way this motion reads defies the policy.” When asked by board chairman Elizabeth Roy what the starting point would be for a 10-per cent reduction, Trustee Demmers could not produce a figure, but said prin- cipals know how many students in their schools smoke. Trustees rejected the motion in a 6-3 vote, even after Trustee Crawford suggested it read, “en- courage a reduction of smoking and tobacco use”.

The Auxiliary to Rouge Val- ley Ajax and Pickering Health Centre was honoured recently during a ceremony at the Ajax hospital. The hospital’s CT suite was renamed for the group, and aux- iliary members marked the oc- casion with a cheque for $50,000 towards the computer- ized tomography scanner. The auxiliary has pledged to raise $500,000 for the scanner and the latest donation brings the effort to $360,000 in the last 18 months. “This gift from the auxiliary was one of the first gifts and is one of the largest gifts the foun- dation has received for the capi- tal campaign,” said Pat Berger Vasseur, president and chief ex- ecutive officer of the Rouge Val- ley Health System foundation, in a speech at the ceremony. “Not only has this gift had an immediate benefit for our pa- tients, but it has also enabled our campaign volunteers to go out and challenge other service or- ganizations and businesses to match their generosity.” Among their many activities, auxiliary volunteers knit tuques and booties for newborns, pro- vide tours of the hospital, and offer bursaries for high school students pursuing careers in medicine. The volunteer auxiliary at Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital was honoured recent- ly for its fund-raising and service efforts by having the facility’s new CT suite named aft- ger the organization. Marking the special oc- casion are (from left) chief operating officer Bruce Cliff, auxiliary president Ella Joel and founding president Dorothy Westney. Ajax-Pickering hospital auxiliary honoured for years of effort Durham offers health tips DURHAM ––The Durham Region Health Department is urging the pub- lic to ‘Eat well, get moving and enjoy life’as part of its campaign to promote healthy lifestyles. A recent health department survey indicates one-third of Durham resi- dents are overweight and that could af- fect their well-being and longevity, says Bev Billings, a Durham public health nurse. “It has been proven that 30 to 40 per cent of all cases of cancer are pre- ventable by eating healthy, maintain- ing a healthy weight and exercising regularly,” she says. “As a result, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help reduce the risk of developing se- rious conditions such as cancer, dia- betes, osteoporosis and heart disease.” Results of the health department survey indicated Durham men are more likely than women to be over- weight with almost half of all men considered overweight. One-third of Durham residents who rate their health as good to excellent are overweight. The health department has a num- ber of programs, information and tips to help area residents achieve healthy eating habits and increase physical ac- tivity year-round.

Monday, Ontario Health Min- ister Tony Clement, accompanied by three local MPPs, announced the Province is increasing its share of funding for the Durham cancer centre by $31.1 million. The extra money, on top of $34.2 million originally announced by the Province, means work can begin immediately. “You’ll be able to see evidence of this announcement within days and weeks,” Mr. Clement told the people gathered for the an- nouncement at Lakeridge Health Oshawa, which will play host to the centre. “Folks, you have your work to do.” Lakeridge is ready to go, “es- pecially now that we’ve got the money,” said Anne Wright, vice- chairman of Lakeridge Health Corporation’s board of gover- nors. “This is a long-awaited and eagerly-awaited announcement for all of us.” Mr. Clement noted he was the fourth politician to announce the cancer centre in Oshawa. The first was Bob Rae, who brought the big news to Oshawa in 1992, when he was premier of Ontario and leader of the NDP. The extra money from the On- tario government will help meet the increased costs of the project and pay for a portion of construc- tion of a central utility plant to service the cancer centre and the hospital, Ms. Wright said. Warren Young, of Lakeridge’s redevelopment department, said preliminary work will begin “in a short while” at the site on the Simcoe Street side of the hospi- tal. Demolition of existing wings will begin soon and then the site will be excavated. While this is going on, tenders will be let for the utilities plant and the cancer centre. It’s hoped construction will be under way by the fall at latest, he said. All of this is good news for the community, said Maryanne Shol- dra, one of three local women who, in the early 1990s, started a petition to get a cancer centre for Durham Region. “It’s been a long time coming and I’m so very pleased and happy,” she said. “It’s a go.” The cancer centre, to be built and integrated with Lakeridge Health Oshawa, was once sched- uled to be open this year. Howev- er, the location and cost of the project have delayed it. Mr. Clement said the increased provincial funding was done after a thorough review of the costs. “The added cost is justified,” he said Monday. The provincial money will cover 70 per cent of the costs. The rest will come from the com- munity. Oshawa General Hospital Foundation has been charged with raising the community por- tion. It’s held annual lotteries and will announce its financial progress and target for the Heroes of Hope campaign at a June 4 event. At Monday’s announcement, Lakeridge Health Corporation and Cancer Care Ontario, part- ners in the cancer centre, appoint- ed Dr. Peter Dixon as chief exec- utive officer of the cancer centre. The centre, when completed, is expected to treat about 4,000 patients a year and serve Durham along with Haliburton, Kawartha and Pine Ridge regions. Attending Monday’s event with Mr. Clement were his cabi- net colleagues, Oshawa MPP and Natural Resources Minister Jerry Ouellette and Whitby-Ajax MPP and Enterprise, Opportunity and Innovation Minister Jim Flaherty and Durham MPP John O’Toole, parliamentary assistant to Mr. Clement.

THE SUM OF ALL FEARS Starring Ben Affleck, Morgan Freeman. Directed by Phil Alden Robinson. When the president of Russia suddenly dies and is succeeded by a man about whom little is known, tension increases as old fears ignite new paranoia. The change in political leaders sparks para- noia among American CIA officials, so Direc- tor of Central Intelligence Bill Cabot (Morgan Freeman) recruits a young analyst from the Russia desk, Jack Ryan (Ben Affleck), to sup- ply insight and advice. Then the unthinkable happens: the capital of Chechnya is levelled by a nuclear bomb. America is quick to blame the Russians and mistrust escalates despite Ryan’s certain- ty that other players are at work. He is right. A group of terrorists is trying to provoke a war between the two nations by manufacturing and escalating the conflict. When they suc- cessfully detonate a second bomb outside Bal- timore during the Super Bowl, the world is pushed inexorably towards war... unless Ryan can supply the needed proof to stem the tide of disaster in time. Time is crucial when the re- sult could be total annihilation. UNDERCOVER BROTHER Starring Eddie Griffin, Chris Kattan, Denise Richards Directed by Malcolm D. Lee Unconventional times call for unconven- tional men and nobody does unconventional better than the man known as Undercover Brother. With a funky sense of style, a smooth way with the ladies and an absolute hunger for jus- tice, this man of action has lived by his own rules.With his Bruce Lee moves, Cadillac atti- tude and an arsenal of outrageous disguises and gadgets, he is patiently waiting for that one really heavy mission. An underground movement has begun unleashing a terrifying top-secret weapon: an irresistibly packaged psycho-hallucinogen drug that will reduce the entire population to mindless zombies. Undercover Brother trades in his Afro, shades and platforms for khakis and penny loafers to pose as Anton Jackson, fighting a battle against The Establishment.

Do you remember the Hot Fudge Brownie Delight and the Fudge cake Supreme? When they were discontinued by IDQ there was a lot of complaints. This is the new improved product and I’m pleased to say that it is the DESSERT OF DESSERTS. First we start with the Brownie. Dairy Queen went to Mr. Christie to bake a special Oreo brownie for this dessert which is moist and chewy and filled with Oreo. You know the kind of brownies you get in that brown bag that melt in your mouth. Those Oreo brownies and a glass of ice cold milk would do it for me! After the two Oreo brownies are placed in the side of the dish a heaping mound of our famous DQ soft serve is spindled in. Our server then goes over to the stainless steel hot fudge pump where our private label hot fudge is kept at 140 degrees. No one else sells this exclusive blend of hot fudge which is one of the reasons people keep coming back for our products like the Peanut Buster Parfait, the Pecan Mudslide and the Chocolate Rock. The Brownie Earthquake will be no exception. A generous pump of hot fudge is sent cascading down over that mound of soft serve pooling on top of those moist brownies. Mmmm Good! Lets start now! Where’s my fork? But that’s not all. IDQ wanted something sweet and creamy so we now spiral a pump of our marshmallow topping around the top. Now here is the big one. In 16 years IDQ has never allowed blizzard toppings to be put on any other products. But in co- operation with Christies the new Brownie Earthquake will send tremors through the store when we sprinkle Oreo cookie pieces on top! Oh my! Oreo Brownies! Oreo Cookie! DQ Soft Serve! Marshmallow! Hot Fudge! And there’s more! To make this dessert complete two portions of our new On Top chilled whipped topping are dispensed on either side of this majestic mouth watering combination of ingredients. A final tribute to decadence. If you’re always a sweet person try it without the marshmallow topping. THE COUPON BELOW IS ONLY GOOD FOR THIS WEEKEND.

In the 2001 budget, the Province announced a five-year, $50-million commitment to upgrade apprentice- training facilities. Dianne Cunningham, minister of training, colleges and universities, in a press release Tuesday detailed who will receive the money and how much. “We’re investing in our colleges to ensure that their training facilities have the technology to provide the high-quality training today’s appren- tices need and industry demands,” she stated. “This investment will en- sure that the colleges can support the government’s goal to double the number of people entering appren- ticeship programs.” Durham College’s share of the money is $352,220. The press release stated some of the money will be spent to improve facilities for those studying to be in- dustrial, construction and mainte- nance electricians and industrial me- chanic millwrights. The rest of the funding, targeted at all the trades, will see the existing wireless network in a new building wing extended to the remaining ap- prenticeship training areas “to ac- commodate increased numbers of ap- prentices and ensure consistent, qual- ity training for all.” AFRO WORLD BEAUTY SUPPLIES 905-426-9729 64 Commercial Ave., Ajax (off Harwood, S. of 401) •Variety of skin care products •Selection of human hair – Wigs – Synthetic Braid – Extensions •Natural products available – Shia Butter – Castor Oil – Carrot Oil WE HAVE SPECIALISTS IN: BRAIDING & WEAVING June Special $20 OFFNOW OPEN This Charity event, also features food, raffles, automotive merchandise, parts swaps & music by the Soul Setters If you would like to bring your car check out www.autoforum.ca or see us at www.canadianrodder.com For more info contact Dick Wright at 905-850-6589 uwayvpc@thestar.ca A/P PAGE 28 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, May 31, 2002 RON PIETRONIRO/ News Advertiser photo Pipe dreams AJAX –– War veteran Garth Webb, president of the Juno Beach Centre, listens to the Toronto Po- lice Association Pipers during a fund-raising golf tournament to raise money for the memorial in Normandy, France.

Wednesday afternoon at Pine Ridge Sec- ondary School, the Monarchs (10-0-1 in league play) made sure their prime objective was met. Playing city rival Dunbarton High School Spartans (9-1-1 in league) in the Lake On- tario Secondary School Athletics (LOSSA) ‘AAA’ championship game, the Monarchs steadily gained momentum to capture a 2-0 victory in a well-played and physical final. The Monarchs will try their luck at the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Asso- ciations (OFSAA) ‘AAA’ championships in Hamilton June 6 to 8. Monarchs’ coach Joe Visconti is opti- mistic about possibly bringing home a medal against the best Ontario high school teams. “Yeah, I like our chances, but we’ll be in tough,” noted Visconti. “Two years ago, we won a bronze medal with much the same team.” The experienced and veteran St. Mary team didn’t panic after a relatively slow start against the Spartans. By the end of the first half, the Monarchs were up to speed, scor- ing their first goal with just seconds remain- ing in the half when Danielle Tanner headed the ball past goalkeeper Katya Milanoski. The Monarchs continued the pressure in the last half until Tonia Coletti found herself in the clear to score an insurance marker in the last minute. The goal came with the Spartans in all-out offen- sive mode in an attempt to score the equalizer on goal- keeper Ashley Visser, who barred the door. Spartans’ coach Linda Correia said she was proud of the way her team matched the Monarchs’ in- tensity. “It was a hard-played game. As far as I was con- cerned it was a 1-0 game. We were pressing hard when they got the second one. I thought both teams played an excellent game,” she said. The Monarchs dumped Ajax’s Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School Chargers 3-0 in a semifinal contest Wednesday morn- ing. Coletti,Tanner and Althea Jones scored. Visser recorded the shutout. Meanwhile, the Spartans defeated Os- hawa’s Monsignor Paul Dwyer Catholic High School Saints 1-0 in the other semifi- nal. Brooke McCalla scored. Milanoski earned the shutout.

This course offers a balanced mixture of short and long holes measuring in at a total of 4773 yards. Whispering Ridge is also the perfect choice for small groups of 20 to the cor- porate golf tournament of 200.
