Police seize $6,000 worth of drugs AAJJAAXX — Five people are facing trafficking-related charges after Durham police busted an alleged drug den in Ajax, seizing $6,000 worth of cocaine. Following a joint investigation officers with the drug and biker enforcement units executed a search warrant at an Addley Drive home at 10:45 p.m. Wednes- day. A quantity of cash and 30 grams of coke were seized during the raid. Police said an outlaw motorcycle gang is linked to the investigation, which is continu- ing, but that none of the suspects are members of a biker club. Two Ajax and three Pickering residents were taken into police custody, while a two-year-old child also located in the residence was turned over to the Children’s Aid Society. Charged with possession of a controlled substance for purpos- es of trafficking are Lori Ann Ellis, 33, of Addley Drive, William Cunningham, 38, of Wild Rose Crescent, Pickering, Deborah Smith, 32, of Linton Avenue, Ajax, Shernette Green, 39, of Lin- wood Street, Pickering and Bar- rington Wynn, 47, also of Linwood Street. Four of the five - all except Ms. Smith - are also charged with possession of crime proceeds. Mr. Wynn faces an additional count of breach of recognizance.

The younger victim had a bruise next to his right eye after being shot, while a 12-year-old had a welt on his right leg follow- ing the incident Thursday after- noon. Neither victim required medical attention for their in- juries. ✦See Teens page 4 Forklift driver not properly trained AAJJAAXX — A former Ajax plant operator was fined $110,000 last week following a ministry of labour inves- tigation into an employee’s death. On Feb. 8, 2002, a 46- year-old woman was killed in an accident at the Barr Road plant run by 3039863 Nova Scotia Limited. Gantrex, a company of The Cavotec Group, a manufacturer and suppli- er of crane rail fastening systems, now owns the plant. The ministry found that the woman was not prop- erly trained to operate the forklift she was driving at the time of the accident. In addition to the fine, a 25 per-cent victim fine sur- charge was also imposed upon 3039863 Nova Scotia Limited in the Ontario Court of Justice in Whitby. The ministry of labour press release stated that the worker was operating a new forklift in a ware- house section of the plant where metal parts in metal drums were stored on a five-level racking sys- tem. “The worker was turning a corner around a rack of drums when the forklift struck one of the vertical supports of the racking system,” it stated. “This caused the racking system to collapse, sending 170- litre drums filled with metal clips falling to the ground.” The worker tried to get out of the way, but was hit by one or more of the drums, resulting in “mas- sive trauma to the upper torso,” which killed her, the ministry found. Police, ambulance and fire services personnel re- sponded to the scene, but found no vital signs in the woman. She was taken to Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering where she was pro- nounced dead. “3039863 Nova Scotia Limited pleaded guilty, as an employer, to failing to ensure that a lifting device was operated only by a competent person,” ac- cording to the ministry. In allowing the woman to operate the forklift, the employer breached both the Occupational Health and Safety Act and the Regulations for Industrial Establishments, the min- istry said.

Those considered unsafe for the week of July 14 are: Rotary Park in Ajax, Beaverton South beach in Brock, and Kinsmen Beach in Scu- gog. Beaches remaining within safe bacteria limits are: Frenchman’s Bay East and West in Pickering, Picker- ing Beach in Ajax, Whitby Beach Canada’s war dead will be remembered BByy LLeesslleeyy BBoovviiee Staff Writer PPIICCKKEERRIINNGG — It’s not un- usual to find Ron Cush- man walking through a cemetery with a digital camera in hand and a bucket full of tools. In search of military markers any chance he gets, the Pickering native has spent the last few years photographing Canadian war graves for the Maple Leaf Legacy Project. “About 17,000 soldiers are buried in Canada, who either died in training or afterwards from wounds they suffered in war,” he explains. “Each name, each memorial deserves a photograph.” Launched in 1997, the volunteer-run project, which relies on private do- nations, aims to take a photo of the grave of every Canadian soldier who served in wars during the 20th century. So far, 61,000 graves have been captured all over the world, leaving another 54,000 left to be documented. Organizers hope to one day have a virtual national war cemetery, not only for posterity’s sake but to help loved ones, who wouldn’t otherwise be able to visit such sites. “It’s incredible to me that Veteran Affairs Cana- da on their Web site give users the opportunity to upload (memorial) photos but there’s been no finan- cial assistance from any large corporation or gov- ernment body for the Maple Leaf Legacy Pro- ject,” says Mr. Cushman, its Metro Toronto co-ordi- nator. Having a keen interest in family history, Mr. Cush- man discovered the pro- ject while trying to track down the resting place of his great uncle, who died serving in the First World War. Since then, he has docu- mented graves all over the GTA, including those in cemeteries in Pickering, Oshawa, Whitby, Beaver- ton and Cannington. As co-ordinator, Mr. Cush- man is always looking for volunteers, even enlisting relatives and other con- tacts to reach more re- mote locations. His interest in genealog- ical research has also taken him on certain other quests. Most recently, Mr. Cushman spent several months trying to help an amateur archaeological group identify three Cana- dian soldiers who died in the First World War near Ypres. When it was discovered one soldier had three gold teeth, the group thought it was on to something. But dental records and DNA testing on skeletal remains failed to identify him. Mr. Cushman attended their reburial in June and spent the following week with Canadian Armed Forces dentist Lieutenant- Colonel Eric Reid “pre- pared to do cemeteries there from dusk to dawn. “We probably did a 250 grave cemetery in 45 min- utes,” he says. “That’s very different from Canada. It’s taken me sometimes three to four days solid to do 100 in Canada.” According to the pro- ject’s Web site, France has the largest number of Canadian soldiers graves - a whopping 51,953. The pristine condition of those cemeteries had Mr. Cush- man in awe. “They are gardens. Flowers, roses and other plants are planted along the graves,” he explains. “I’ve been to a number of cemeteries and conditions vary.” Mr. Cushman routinely brings a hooked carpet knife with him to help cut back weeds or sods from some Canadian markers. A spray bottle of water helps delineate faded en- graving. In some cases, a scraper is necessary to rid them of lichens that oblit- erate some lettering. “I went to one cemetery at the top of Lake Simcoe and I had to feel the letters to know the characters, they were so faded,” he adds. As for his great uncle, Mr. Cushman has never seen his grave near Cam- bray in person, but he now has photos taken by Lt.- Col. Reid last year.

The other pellet gun incidents occurred in Toronto, including one where a five-year-old was shot in the eye last Sunday. On Wednesday, a 15-year- old was charged after the back window of a car was blown out. The older Ajax victim said he was at a nearby McDonald’s Restaurant just before 4 p.m. when the trouble started. “I was at McDonald’s and I was going to come home. I saw some friends, so I stayed,” he said. “These other kids came by and they started talking to us.” At one point, he was told to leave by the other boys, the victim stated. One of the boys “put a gun to my head” and asked where his friends were. When the boy started rid- ing away, he was shot in the leg. One of the alleged shooters put a gun to an- other boy’s head and pulled the trigger. “He shot him point blank and it left a mark.” The two went to a friend’s house and the 11- year-old was “crying,” the older boy said. Durham Police arrested the alleged shooters soon after. The gun that was put to his head “looked like a real gun. It looked like a po- lice officer’s gun,” the boy noted. Durham police seized three replica hand- guns and pellets. Three 12- year-old Ajax youths have been charged with assault, assault with a weapon, careless use of a firearm, pointing a firearm, and possession of a dangerous weapon. The three were released into the custody of their parents and are to appear in an Oshawa court on Aug. 19.

PPIICCKKEERRIINNGG — The Durham Regional Police holdup unit is investigating a mid-day bank heist Friday in Pickering. The Scotiabank at 1020 Brock Rd. was robbed at 1:50 p.m. by a man who threatened a teller and demanded cash, police said.of money and took off in an unknown direction. No weapon was seen dur- ing the robbery and no one was hurt. Bank robbed Ninety per cent vote for agreement BByy MMiikkee RRuuttaa Staff Writer AAJJAAXX — Thirty-five work- ers at the Ajax Youth Cen- tre on Church Street rati- fied a new collective agree- ment with Kennedy House Youth Services Thursday. Ian Johnson, the Ontario Public Service Employees’ Union (OPSEU), Local 361 representative at the facili- ty, said the 24-bed, secure- custody centre for young offenders “should be up and running by next week.” It was closed after workers went on strike last month. “We’re more than happy,” he said. “The bar- gaining team felt they did the best they could, got us the best contract they could have got us under the circumstances, with the employer we’re dealing with.” He said the two-and-a- half year deal would see employees receive a 14-per- cent raise when they reach the top of the salary grid after seven years. The starting pay for an employ- ee rose from $31,500 to $33,500 per year, and the maximum salary is now $41,000 per year. Mr. Johnson said roughly 90 per cent of workers voted in favour of the deal. June Weatherup, Kennedy House’s director of operations, said she could not confirm that the two sides have finalized the agreement. Lillian Kaye, OPSEU’s Region 3 regional secretary, said she faxed of- ficial notification of the rat- ification to the Ajax Youth Centre on Thursday morn- ing. Even if Kennedy House has the letter, Ms. Weatherup suggested she would still have to notify the organization’s board of directors before speaking to the press. She would not say if the board had rati- fied the deal. Mr. Johnson said despite the pay increase, “we’re still the lowest paid” work- ers in young offender cus- tody facilities in the province. “That shows how far Kennedy House was be- hind in addressing these issues,” he said. www.durhamregion.com NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, JULY 20, 2003 PAGE 5 A/P SUN.

V isit us at durham region .com Youth centre workers accept offer Making plans for Durham Goals honourable but councillors must ensure we get there It’s common knowledge you won't know where you're going if you don't have a plan to get there. That's the goal of Durham Region's strategic plan dubbed 'Growing Together.' An examination of the draft plan, present- ed recently to council, suggests the goals are of the motherhood variety: increase partnerships and government effectiveness; protect the environment; strengthen and integrate transporta- tion systems; build the Region's economy; ensure balanced growth and livable communities; support safe and caring com- munities. Who couldn't agree with such principles? The key, of course, is how do we get there. • Regional councillors must work together to improve effi- ciencies across the region and develop partnerships that save money while improving services. That sometimes requires sac- rifice in one part of the region for the greater good. • Environmental protection requires lobbying of the province to make sure paper sludge is analyzed and to ensure the Oak Ridges moraine is protected among other goals. • Strengthening and integrating transportation systems will involve widening the 401 through Oshawa, extending the 407 east through Durham, development of a regionwide bus service and improved GO transit. Our regional roads must also be maintained. • The Region's economy will continue to grow, but the Region must work to bring large businesses to Durham, to make the property tax equation between residential and commercial/in- dustrial sectors more equitable. • Balanced growth and livable communities is one of the greatest challenges as Durham's population doubles. The de- velopment of the University of Ontario Institute of Technology is a plum that will mean a brain gain for Durham. Should the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor be located in Durham, that will bring even more highly talented people to the region. Councillors must be diligent to keep the rural-urban balance that makes Durham the jewel of the 905 region. The effort to develop safe, healthy and caring communities is an accomplishment Durham can be proud of. Expanded police services budgets have improved the capacity of the Durham Regional Police to fight crime and ensure a strong police pres- ence here. Our health department and hospital systems re- sponded in superb fashion to the recent SARS outbreak. As for caring communities - they come about because of a sincere de- sire of all levels of government and society to do what serves the greater good. The strategic plan is a good first step, but, as one councillor pointed out, "I'd hate to see this end up on a shelf." 407 brings questions for this reader TToo tthhee eeddiittoorr:: The editorial referring to the Hwy. 407 extension points out the need for ur- gency. Based on what we are using today, the extension east of Brock Road is already two years behind and the traf- fic on Hwy. 7 and Taunton road is now an endless stream during rush hours. Anyone thinking of living in Brooklin will be in for a big surprise if they plan on commuting to Toronto. The compar- ison between the thousands of long-dis- tance trucks on the 401 and the almost negligible amount on the 407, even though access is easily gained to the 407 by using Brock Road as a connector, points out a serious flaw. Will the truck- ers pay the tolls? I don't think so, not as long as the 401 remains toll free. Pressing for improvements and widening of the 401 only adds to the in- centive to use the 401. Any commuters living close to the 401 corridor have nowhere else to go. The thousands lo- cating slightly north, ie. Hwy. 7 and Taunton Road, have no alternative but to join the single lane procession east of Brock Road. Considering the time it takes to clear the years of approvals and construction, it seems that Durham residents may as well not plan a drive through on a 407 extension east until beyond 2010. Wake up all you different levels of gov- ernment. Gridlock on the good old 401 is rapidly approaching. JJoohhnn HH..

A/P PAGE 6 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, July 20, 2003 www.durhamregion.com Busy working parents get creative Idon't remember there being such things as summer day camps when I was a child. Camp was more like a scene out of 'Meatballs'. You boarded a bus for some woodsy location north of Hwy. 7, swam, ate bad food, and wrote long mournful letters home. So when I was asked to investi- gate just how to keep young Timmy and Tammy in touch with learning over the holiday months, it was a learning experience for me. Not having any children of my own, I thought back to my roots, which took hold in a different day. Mom was lucky enough to be able to stay at home. So we spent our summers south of Hwy. 7, swam all day in our pool in the backyard and ate homemade food. Today, I found some parents start months ahead, plotting out their family's summer itinerary. They schedule in trips to grandpar- ents, with vacation bible schools and sports camps. Some take later shifts or even different holidays from their spouses to ensure there is proper care. It's just a reality, given it takes two income-earners to run a household these days. Pickering mom Leanne Worsfold was particularly adept at keeping her son and daughter active and occupied during the break. On days she can't work from home, the nurse educator enlists the aid of a university student to do activities with them or gets help from sum- mer day camps. And she's careful not to schedule one high-energy week after another. Where was this woman when I needed help plan- ning my wedding? The good news is the community seems to be responding to this dilemma. Day camps are no longer just daycare. They are opportuni- ties to learn about history, dabble in science, or try your hand at pot- tery. There's even an Irish camp for kids this year in Pickering, offering children a chance to play Gaelic games and learn the language. And for parents, who want an even greater emphasis on the acad- emic, there are privately operated learning centres. Although benefi- cial, I'm not sure I'd go that route.

To clear $14.99 Beef prices leave consumers confused BByy CCaarrllyy FFoosstteerr Staff Writer DDUURRHHAAMM — While the price of Canadian beef continues to hover at all-time lows, consumers say they still aren’t seeing reductions in gro- cery stores. “If they want us to buy more, to use up the excess they keep talking about, it should,” said Lorie Fergu- son yesterday as she was entering the Lake Vista Square IGA at Went- worth and Cedar streets in Oshawa. “Who’s making all the money? The grocery stores?” Not according to the Canadian Council of Grocery Distributors, who represent 80 per cent of grocery stores and food distributors in the country. They insist the price of cer- tain types of Canadian beef have been cut. “There’s been a lot of aggressive features across the country,” said Bryan Walton, vice-president of the CCGD’s western division. “I’d en- courage you and your readers to look at the ads, see the features.” Cattle farmers have seen beef prices plummet after one mad-cow positive animal was found in Alber- ta more than two months ago. The U.S. border was closed to any beef shipments immediately, and the in- dustry has been losing around $11 million in exports a day as other countries have followed. Mr. Walton said cow parts like ground beef and end cuts (blade steak and chuck steak) have been reduced anywhere from 88 cents to $1.49 per pound in all the grocery stores. The Durham Cattlemen’s As- sociation last week said the price of beef, normally at $1.75 to $1.85 per pound, had plummeted to 75 to 85 cents. “These cuts are down because... the packers and processors want to see us move them,” Mr. Walton said. But centre cuts, like sirloin grilling steak, are in strong demand and limited supply during summer and imports are being used to keep stock up, he added. The president of the DCA, which represents 865 cattle farmers in Durham and puts $38 million in the local economy annually, said he doesn’t know why prices haven’t fallen in stores to match the market. “If we have to take a loss, I think the public should be able to buy for less,” said John Wolters from his cattle farm in Blackstock. “For the simple reason if it’s going to cost everyone money, the public should be able to enjoy the profits as well.” Richard Halenda said the slaugh- ter houses are to blame. “When all this happened, the major players immediately cut slaughter by 50 per cent,” said the owner of Halenda’s Fine Foods. “The slaughter houses won’t kill more than they can sell.” Despite what the grocery council said, the price of ground beef has re- mained at $1.99 per pound for the past two months at Halenda’s. The Ontario Cattlemen’s Associa- tion is encouraging consumers to demand local grocery stores and restaurants buy only Canadian beef. At the urging of the Toronto Region Conservation Authority, the City of Pickering began an Official Plan Review, which led to a Growth Management Study. The purpose of this study is to: • Provide a better understanding of where growth should occur • Preserve significant cultural and environmental lands • Represents the interests of all parties involved • Undertake this work in an open public process The Tory Government wants to take this study away from you! This has never been done to any other municipality in Ontario! To sum it up, the Tory Government will plan the Seaton Lands in Pickering behind closed doors, without meaningful input from the taxpaying residents of Pickering! Does Janet Ecker really believe that the infrastructure for Seaton, that is ESTIMATED AT $200 MILLION DOLLARS, will be paid for by the tax payers in Pickering?

While there’s nothing you can do about non-controllable risks like age, family, history, gender or race, there are risk factors you can control. People who are at an uncontrollable risk for heart disease include males over 55 years old, post- menopausal women, and those with an immediate family history of heart disease. Certain ethnic groups, such as Aboriginals and South Asians, may also be at a higher risk. People who are at uncontrollable risk for strokes include males over the age of 55 as well as people belonging to certain ethnic groups. Common controllable risks for heart disease and stroke are smoking or exposure to second-hand smoke, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. An inactive lifestyle, stress, being overweight by more than 30 lbs. (13.5 kg) as well as carrying extra weight around your abdomen, are also risk factors for heart disease. Other risk factors for stroke include a history of a mini- stroke, an existing heart condition and an excess alcohol intake (more than two alcoholic drinks per day). High blood pressure is when systolic is over140 and/or the diastolic is over 90 on repeated tests. It is a leading cause of stroke and increases the risk of heart disease up to four times. Here are ways to reduce blood pressure: quit smoking if you are a smoker; lose the excess weight if you’re overweight; get active and stay active; relax at least 20 minutes every day; drink little (one drink a day), alcohol or no alcohol; cut down on salt; and if taking a high blood pressure pill, take it exactly as directed by your doctor. High blood pressure contributes to blocked and narrowed arteries, which increases the chance of stroke and heart disease. To reduce cholesterol decrease your fat intake to 30 per cent or less of your daily calories; that’s about 65 grams or less for women and 90 grams or less for men. Reduce, in particular, saturated fat and choose lower-fat dairy products such as skim milk and low-fat cheese, eat more grains, cereals, fruits and vegetables. It’s also important to bake, broil and steam foods rather than fry them. If you smoke, quit as smoking increases bad LDL levels in the blood and get active; it improves good HDL levels. Get at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise three to five times a week. If you are on a cholesterol-lowering medication take it exactly as directed by your doctor. You should also avoid exposure to second-hand smoke. Diabetes is another cause for heart disease and stroke. Juvenile diabetes develops in childhood and must be treated with insulin. Adult onset diabetes often develops in overweight adults and can be controlled or eliminated by diet and weight loss. Lose weight if you are overweight, eat a balanced diet, reduce fat intake and eat more high fibre foods and complex carbohydrates. Get active and monitor your blood sugar at home. If prescribed medicated, insulin or oral tablets, to control your diabetes, take it as prescribed. Excess weight of more than 30 lbs. can put you at a higher risk of heart disease, especially if you have excess weight around your middle (waist, abdomen and upper body). To see if you fall into this group, find your waist- to-hip ratio (WHR) by dividing your waist measurement by your hip measurement (i.e. waist 34 divided by hips 38 equals 0.89). Healthy WHR for women is less than 0.85 and for men less than one. To maintain a healthy weight, it’s important to eat a balanced diet with more fruits and vegetables, more complex carbohydrates (pasta and rice), more f ibre (whole grain breads and cereals). Reduce fat in your diet, drink lots of water and get some regular physical activity. Stress, a common cause of heart disease and stroke, is not clearly understood. For some people, stressful situations contribute to high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure and blood clotting abnormalities. This is why it’s important to identify negative stress factors in your life and learn positive coping strategies. All of these factors can increase your chances. Determine your risk and make changes. You’ll give yourself the best chance of reducing the impact of your heart disease and stroke on your life.

With CAA Health & Dental, you have access to a number of supplementary health coverage plans designed to meet your specific needs.

Here are a few of the many highlights that set CAA Health & Dental apart from other plans: • Affordability –choose the plan and billing option that best suits your needs and budget. • Comprehensive benefits –all three plans include coverage, in varying amounts, for prescription drugs, dental services, vision care, and visits to registered specialists and therapists. • Guaranteed coverage –no medical exam or questionnaire is required for the Essential Plan. • Special Rates –for couples and families with 2 children or more. • Convenient claims submission –no need to fill out forms for prescription drugs and many dental claims. • Laser vision benefit –part of overall vision coverage. • If your employment has changed, and you are coming off a group health plan, ask about the CAA Conversion Plus Plan. costs Special Limited Time Bonus Offer!

Elena Sharp, who led by four strokes entering Thursday's third and final round, was disqualified shortly after arriving late for her scheduled 8:51 a.m. tee-time. Sharp's monumental gaffe opened the door for Cheryl Mitchell, of Water- ford, Michigan, to capture the cham- pionship. Mitchell posted scores of 74- 73-74--221 (+5) to win the 88th playing of this storied event. But, the story of the championship was Sharp's disqualification in her quest to win her second Ontario ama- teur in five years. For Mitchell, 24, it was with utter surprise that she found herself leading the event entering the final round. "I was shocked when it dawned on me that Alena missed her tee-time and wouldn't be playing," said Mitchell. "Instantly the pressure was greater — I was the new leader, but, I told myself that I wouldn't let it (pres- sure) get to me and just play my best." And, Mitchell did, rattling off a final-round 74 to finish two strokes ahead of second-place finisher Terrill Samuel, 42, of Etobicoke, who fired a final-round 70 for an overall 223 over the three days of play. "My goal was to play within myself, to go out and shoot my personal best," revealed Mitchell following her win. "Especially after what happened(Sharp's disqualification), I didn't want to worry about what any- one else was doing."

Samuel, however, is unable to attend the August 12-15 na- tional championship in Mon- treal and thus Susan Wick- ware, of Pickering, whose home course is the ladies' Golf Club of Toronto, was named to the team. Wickware finished in fifth place at the champi- onships, carding a 73 in the final round, finishing seven strokes in arrears of Mitchell. The bronze medal was awarded to Cuyler Hedley, 22, a member of Dalewood Golf & Curling Club, near Port Hope. Hedley opened the tourney with a six-over 78 and then pro- ceeded to play the next 36- holes at two-over par for a three-day total of 224 (plus 8). In addition to Wickware, there were a number of other local players at the champi- onships. Debbie McDonald, of Claremont, a member at the host Whitevale Golf Club, fin- ished in a three-way tie for 30th place with scores of 83, 81 and 82 over the three rounds. Carlie Weppler, of Pickering, finished in a four-way tie for 54th place. Other local players who started the tournament, but missed the cut after two round's of play, were Angela Colm and Melody Robinson, of Ajax, and Dana Saccoccio and Jacquelyn Burrell, of Pickering.

If the answer is yes but cash is a lit- tle tight or interest costs are too high then Plumbing Mart has the perfect solution for you. Right now you can have one of sev- eral different bathroom packages starting at $6,588 with no interest on monthly pay- ments up to 36 months. (48 months avail- able on some packages) “There’s no reason to delay having a beautiful bathroom in your home,” says Sam Beninato of Plumbing Mart. ”You can’t afford not when you can divide your purchase into equal monthly payments with no interest charges. You can pay as low as $183 a month for 36 months and at the same time adding tremendous value to your home” Every package includes demolition, preparation and installation of a tub, toi- let, floor tiles, vanity, basin, faucets and much more. You can choose from the full bath- room retrofit to the luxury whirlpool bath- room with lots of upgraded features. “Agreat bathroom can be a real deal- maker when it comes time to sell your house,” says Sam. “We are offering this program so you don’t have to pay high interest costs when you borrow money for a renovation. Also, if you have the money why not keep it in the bank and earn inter- est.” Satisfying their customers is what has made Plumbing Mart leaders when it comes to bathroom renovations. Over the last 40 years they have established an excellent reputation and have since expanded their specialty to include kitchens and basement conversions. “We have the best combination when it comes to products and people,” says Sam. “That’s to ensure each and everyone of our customers is completely satisfied with their project which is also backed by Plumbing Mart’s 5-year instal- lation warranty.” Located at 1534 Midland Ave., the Plumbing Mart showroom is only 15 min- utes from anywhere in Ajax and Pickering.

Despite two wins over Con- estoga in earlier tournament action, the Heat couldn't finish off the Conestogans when it counted, losing in the final 5-3. With the score tied 3-3 in the sixth, a two-run homer by Con- estoga in its half of the sixth in- ning put the game on ice. Pickering got off to a good start in the final as Ambrose Luciano and Conor McTernan crossed the plate. Conestoga countered within its half of the first inning. The 2-1 score held until the bottom of the fourth when Conestoga scored to tie the score. In the fifth inning Conestoga capitalized on a passed ball and scored the go- ahead run, leading 3-2. Picker- ing replied in the sixth as Jason Carey scored to tie the contest at 3-3. Under hot and humid condi- tions Saturday, the Pickering boys defeated Stratford 7-4 in Game 1. Pitcher Andrew Scott earned the win, aided by strong signal calling by catcher Billy Keith. Luciano, Jason Carey, Scott, Keith, Chris MacLeod, Corey Beer and Kenny Cooke crossed the plate. In Game 2, the Heat doubled the score on Milverton 6-3. Cooke earned the win on the mound. Leading the offence was McTernan with two runs, Beer, Anthony Paradiso, MacLeod and Carey each scored once. Play resumed Sunday with the Heat midgets facing Con- estoga. In the first inning the Heat gave up three runs, which held for the rest of the game in a 3-0 loss. Pickering next faced home- town Frankenmuth. In a hard- fought battle, which put the battery of Cooke and Keith to the test, the Heat hung on for a 1-0 victory. McTernan trotted home with the winning run in the eighth inning, brought home off a hit by Scott. The Heat faced the undefeat- ed Conestoga team for a second time in the double-knockout tournament. The Pickering boys capital- ized on a hit by Anthony Par- adiso, which scored Chris MacLeod with the game-win- ning run in the bottom of the ninth inning for a 1-0 win. Other team members are Justin Over, Jeff Magee and Brent Ashby. Doug Scott, Ray McTernan, Norm MacLeod coach the team. The manager is Liz Keith.
