Accused blames budd y for murder By Jeff Mitchell Staff Writer DURHAM – Cosmo Jacobson has placed blame for the mur- der of Roy Jones squarely on his long-time friend and co-accused, testifying that Sean Hall started “busting shots off” the night they tracked their victim to his Ajax home. Mr. Jacobson, who is charged, along with Mr. Hall, with first-de- gree murder in the 2001 slaying, also testified that he and his friend went to Mr. Jones’s Twilley Lane home looking to intimidate him, not to kill him. In his second day on the witness stand testifying in his own defence, Mr. Jacobson held a courtroom transfixed as he gave a lengthy rapid-fire account of the events leading up to the shooting of Mr. Jones outside his home on a chilly, wet February night. Talking almost breathlessly and changing the in- flection in his voice as he gave his testimony, he said he looked on in disbelief as Mr. Hall chased down and shot Mr. Jones several times. He said Mr. Hall told him later that he had to use the gun when Mr. Jones picked up a shovel in an attempt to defend himself. The two friends had stalked Mr. Jones, a security guard at a flea market in the Metro East Trade Centre, on successive nights, plan- ning to confront him on his way home and menace him with a sto- len Colt .45 handgun, Mr. Jacob- son testified under questioning by Ja son Dos Santos, one of the lawyers on his defence team. He said they hoped to scare Mr. Jones The Pickering Pressrun 47,600 ✦ 40 Pages ✦ Metroland Durham Region Media Group ✦ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 2004 ✦ Optional delivery $6 / Newsstand $1 Tr ustees to review policy after calls for changes By Mike Ruta Staff Writer DURHAM – Public school board trustees asked for input on their busing policy - and they got it in spades Tuesday night, facing harsh criticism and heckling. The Durham District School Board invited parents to voice their concerns about the transpor- tation policy, approved about five months ago. Presented to trustees then as a notice of motion, the policy normally would have come to a subsequent meeting. How- ever, the board relaxed the rules of procedure to approve it right away. The policy eliminated surplus seating, leaving many parents with children in both special pro- grams like French immersion and in regular English programs, in the lurch. The former are guaran- teed busing, but their siblings can no longer take advantage of a sur- plus seat to go to the same school. Another amendment changed the method of measuring the distance from home to school for busing purposes, from a residence’s driveway to its nearest intersec- tion. Twenty residents from virtually every part of Durham took advan- tage of the opportunity to speak, with most coming from Whitby and Uxbridge. Trustees were to have met last night (Thursday) as, faced with mounting pressure, they move towards possibly changing the policy. “If they can’t look at what hap- pened here tonight and say, ‘(the policy) has created more prob- lems,’ they need to have their head examined,” said Uxbridge resident Lynda Hartman in an interview. Her son is slated to enrol in the Grade 1 French immersion pro- gram at Uxbridge Public School next year, and thus receive a guar- anteed bus ride to school. Until then, he has relied upon a surplus seat to get there, lost when the policy changed. “Many parents are being put under financial strain in having Raptor Ball Ages 7 - 13 years Call for details 905.420.6588 cityofpickering.com OPEN HOUSE SUN., SEPT. 12, 2 - 4 PM sutton-group heritage realty Inc.

Several parents com- plained that buses with available seats are passing by their homes, questioning how it would cost the board more to pick up additional students. “How is it that when there is seating available on a school bus on a sched- uled school bus route and at a scheduled school bus stop... we leave their prima- ry sibling standing by the side of the road and allow the older sibling to get on the bus?” asked Whitby par- ent Alenka Ryan. French immersion parent Rozalyn Werner-Arce says the policy “has caused a great hardship on parents” who have decided on an FI education. “By stopping the busing in the name of funding cuts, I feel this is a step along the way to the erasure of French immersion,” said the Oshawa parent. Some parents told the board to be creative with its funding so those left out of the policy can be included. Others doubted the reason the board made the busing cut - because a proposed new Ontario transportation policy will leave Durham out $3.5 million next year. Education director Craig Burch said he is a member of the transportation com- mittee set up by the Prov- ince. “Every scenario... hurts Durham,” he said, confirm- ing the latest would see Durham out $3.5 million. “It’s directly out of the min- ister’s office.” After hearing from the parents, Uxbridge Trustee Gordon Baxter motioned that the board’s transporta- tion ad hoc committee be reconvened to review the policy. The committee, on which any trustee can sit, originally recommended the busing cuts to the full board. Trustee Baxter’s success- ful motion called for the committee to bring recom- mendations to the Sept. 20 board meeting.

For the second year, Municipal Road Coalition (MRC) will rank the Province’s most run-down, bumpy, pot hole-filled roads to draw attention to “a system in crisis,” the group said. “The municipal road system is vital to our economy, standard of living, safety and security,” MRC’s Web site said. “Yet it has been seriously under- funded for more than a decade.” Residents can log onto www.wor- stroads.ca and not only cast a vote for a bad road, but also send concerns to their mayor and read facts about Ontario’s road system. There are 282,400 kilometres of mu- nicipal roads in Ontario, with 2,094 kilometres maintained by the Region of Durham (not including local mu- nicipal roads). There are also 12,000 bridges and culverts, the MRC says. Durham maintains 214. Travel on municipal roads has been growing 4 per cent annually, and there are 1 million more registered vehicles in Ontario today compared to eight years ago, MRC says. The coalition is made up of the Ca- nadian Automobile Association, Ca- nadian Taxpayers Association, Ontario Motor Coach Association, Ontario Road Builders Association and the On- tario Trucking Association. The coalition will announce the top 20 worst roads later this year, with judges looking at congestion, state of repair and safety. The worst road in 2003 was a stretch of Bronson Avenue in Ottawa.

The shooting occurred just days before the sched- uled court appearance. “Our plan was to confront Roy Jones and pull out the gun ... intimidate him into not going to court to testify,” Mr. Jacobson told the jury of eight men and four women Wednesday afternoon. “I was supposed to keep (watch) ... (Mr. Hall) was going to do the intimida- tion.” Mr. Jacobson said that after scouting out Mr. Jones as he prepared to leave his job at the flea market, he and Mr. Hall raced to the area in which their target lived. Parking their car a dis- tance away, they went to opposite ends of Twilley Lane to await his arrival. Equipped with binoculars and walkie-talkies, they waited about 45 minutes in a freezing drizzle for the man to come home, he tes- tified. “I’m looking out for a car and then I see Roy walking down Twilley Lane. I radi- oed to Sean and said, ‘He’s coming towards you,’” Mr. Jacobson said. He said he trailed Mr. Jones down the street, keep- ing under cover of darkness by traversing back yards. “As I got to about the fourth or fifth house, as I get to that point, I start hear- ing a struggle going on,” he testified. “Then I hear a couple of shots pop off.” Mr. Jacobson said he continued toward the in- tersection of Twilley Lane and Pickering Beach Road, trying to find out what was going on. It was then that he saw Mr. Hall firing the pistol, he testified. “I see Sean running and I can’t see what he’s doing. I see him on Pickering Beach Road and he’s just busting shots off.” Mr. Hall sat in stony si- lence as his former best friend testified for hours, never moving a muscle and appearing to gaze al- most impassively at Mr. Ja- cobson, a man he told the undercover cops he would “die for” when they dis- cussed the murder. www.pctekcomputers.ca • sales@pctekcomputers.ca Computer Hardware & Software Sales • Service • Solutions LAPTOP CLEARANCE IBM ThinkPad 600X • P3-500MHz • 64 MB RAM • 12 GB Hard Drive • 24X CD-ROM • 56 Kbs Modem • 13.3 TFT Screen • Integrated Audio / Ext Video • 2 PCMCIA / 1 USB • Parallel / Serial / IR • Windows 98 COA Starting from $39999* 1648 Bayly St, Pickering 905-837-1330 Store hours: Mon-Fri: 10-7, Sat: 10-5 Limited quantities – Prices subject to change without notice – * With this ad 1 WEEK ONLY Sept. 10 - 18 Registered Charity #11925 8655 RR 0001 The gentle movements of Taoist Tai Chi will make you feel younger, stronger and more relaxed than you’ve felt in years!

NEWS ADVERTISER AJAX – Two men are fac- ing charges after a coffee shop was robbed by a knife-wielding suspect in the early morning hours of Wednesday, Durham Regional Police report. Police said the lone clerk working at a Tim Hortons outlet on Bayly Street at Westney Road was told to hand over cash by a man who entered carrying a knife around 3 a.m. The clerk complied and watched as the suspect left the store and got into a green car, police said. Police on patrol pulled the car over a short distance from the coffee shop and discovered the cash drawer inside. Charged with robbery, wear- ing a disguise with intent to commit a crime, possession of a dangerous weapon and pos- session of property obtained by crime is Eric Cunliffe, 18, of Rotherglen Road in Ajax. Charged with robbery is 18- year-old Adam Urqhart, also of Rotherglen Road.

P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, SEPTEMBER 10, 2004 durhamregion.com EDITORIALS & OPINIONS NEWS ADVERTISER ✦ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 2004 Project could generate more than electricity O ne of the ‘to do’ items during my vacation to Prince Edward Island last month was to visit the wind farm that officially opened three years ago in North Cape. As I drove up the coast along the Nor- thumberland Strait, the sea of white blades turning from the wind coming off both coasts was quite a sight. Normally, electricity generating sites are not tourist attractions (I have been to the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station - however that was work related) but the eight generators nestled on the northern tip of the tiny island attract thousands of visitors. The day I visited the parking lot was nearly full and the information centre-gift shop was brimming with tourists. A few short weeks after returning from my vacation I learned a wind farm is being proposed in Pickering on the Brock West Landfill site at Brock and Third Conces- sion roads. Eastern Power submitted a proposal to the Province to operate five or six wind- driven generators -- similar to the one at the Pickering nuclear station -- that could produce enough electricity to power 4,000 homes. The proposal is part of the Province’s request for proposals issued in the spring for generation of 300 megawatts of renew- able electricity as part of its plan to phase out coal-fired plants. Any move to generate green energy that doesn’t have harmful greenhouse gas emissions is a good one, but the spinoffs created from a wind farm in Pickering could be even more beneficial. If approved, the wind farm would serve as another unique attraction to draw visi- tors to the city. Postcards, T-shirts, replica wind generators and various other mer- chandise could be made up to help market the rare attraction. As of now there are only a few wind farms scattered across the country, but none are located in the GTA. In addition to the economic and energy benefits, as one of the few wind farms in the country, the Pickering project could be used as a research site - possibly partner- ing with a certain local technology-based university. Wind generation is still relatively new in Canada and more expensive than other methods of generation, but its benefits and its reliability make it a good choice for the future.

Now is the t ime for trustees to act Enough already. School parents can be forgiven if they feel like throwing their hands in the air and waving the white flag. After all, for those affected by the Durham District School Board’s on-again, potentially off-again new busing policy, trustees have added unnecessary stress to the back- to-school process. The board voted to change the policy back in April, effective- ly putting an end to surplus seating. Under the old scenario, that meant any student could apply to take a bus provided there was an available seat. For instance, that would keep siblings together at the same school when one was in the French immersion program and the other wasn’t attending their ‘home’ school. The board also changed how it determines its busing stan- dard. In the past, the minimum distance (1.6 kilometres) was measured from a home to the school. Under the new system, it’s paced off from the home’s nearest intersection to the school, forcing more students off the bus. In its place, trustees have instituted a policy that takes into account, among other things, the day-care requirements of students. The change means students may be picked up and dropped off at different locations, which was against the rules in the past. Yet now, more than four months after the changes, after parents have scrambled to make other plans and arrangements to meet the new busing rules, the board is possibly changing course again. At Tuesday’s standing com- mittee meeting, trustees agreed to have an ad hoc transporta- tion committee look at the issue. What the decision in April lacked in consultation, the cur- rent one has made up for in laborious talking and indecision. It’s also offering false hope for some and sparking concerns from others. Continuing to regurgitate the busing issue only serves to drag out the inevitable. It’s divisive and unnecessary. Poten- tially worst of all, it throws countless situations up in the air as parents are left wondering whether or not the busing they have today will be here tomorrow. A decision is needed now -- not in the coming weeks -- and it needs the full backing of trustees, not a wavering support that continues to feed resentment. Pets must be fixed To the editor: Have you been to your local animal shelter lately? Do you notice how many cats and dogs there are? Our shelters try incredibly hard to save the animals and find them good homes. Now we, the citizens who love our pets, need to step up and step up high. Our animals need help. We need to reduce the amount of strays and somehow get animals fixed before they are adopted out. There are those who will not get their pet fixed, then unleash them outside and next thing you know there are now more unwanted kit- tens and puppies, plus a possibly now unwanted mother. It’s just not right. Something must be done. Our animal shelters need more money so they can get pets fixed before the adoption is completed. That way, the animal goes home safe. No worries about little strays and unwanted babies or adults. Help our animals! If you already have a pet please, please help control the pet population. Have it spayed or neutered! Jen Huska Courtice LETTER TO THE EDITOR EDITORIAL PICKERING - Getting help landing a job will be much easier - and more in- teractive - now that a new website has been launched. The Durham Region Un- employed Help Centre’s (DRUHC) new website has an innovative function: a real employment counsel- lor starring in video clips that guides users through everything from writing resumes to handling inter- views. “The old website had (these things) but we want people to be able to log on and see things rather than just read them,” said Mara- lyn Tassone, executive di- rector of the centre. “It’s entertaining, fun, beneficial and is really just like a vir- tual workshop.” In one section, under in- terviews, counsellor Gary pretends to be a bad in- terviewee, showing up late, fidgeting, not making eye contact and having not done any research. Then he shows a good in- terview, where he remem- bers all his talents and an- swers every question. Another area guides users through the resume-build- ing process using a mock job ad. All the while the job counsellor is narrating how to do things and listing websites for more informa- tion. Users can even build a re- sume right on the site using templates. “If you really need a re- sume fast and your word processing skills aren’t that great, this will help build it,” said Joseph Castaldo, a summer intern with DRUHC that built the inter- active section of the site. Ms. Tassone said the new site will be especially help- ful for those living in other parts of Durham who can’t always access the help cen- tre’s free services. Those include job clubs, computer, printer and fax access, job boards, resourc- es on employment, help for newcomers to Canada and individual counselling. There are two centres in Oshawa at 193 King St. and 15 Colburne St., and one in Pickering at 1400 Bayly St., Unit 12.

Cruise line schedules, for ships departing from F lorida ports, were thrown into chaos last week as Hurricane Frances approached the sunshine state and eventually wrapped almost all of it in its destructive embrace. Faced with huge storm- related costs the cruise lines came out smelling of roses. Some of the three and four day cruises were can- celled altogether, others shortened or operating on revised itineraries as the Po rt of Miami, Port Canaveral, Port Everglades and Tampa all closed down while the slow-moving storm raged. It could have been worse. While a large number of ships were affected, cruising out of the Florida ports is at its lowest ebb at this time of the year with many ships in the Mediterranean, Alaska, Northern Europe and the Pacific. Cruise lines are not required to offer compensa- tion for cruises cancelled or altered by natural events such as hurricanes. Nevertheless, it appears that all did offer compensation of some kind ranging from shipboard credits to dis- counts on future cruises. W hile some cruises were shortened, some cruise pas- sengers had extra days added to their cruise. Many passengers who were inconvenienced received $500 USD ship- board credits as well as a credit of 50 per cent off a future cruise. If they opted not to travel they received a full refund. It seems that in all cases, generous compen- sation was being offered to passengers affected by all these changes. Most lines were helping passengers re- arrange flights and airlines were reported to be waving the usual charges for alter- ation of travel schedules. It's going to cost the cruise lines a pretty penny but the customer goodwill they have created in the face of trying circumstances will prove to be worth it. One of the major cruise lines has already announced a three to four cent drop in share price for third quarter numbers due to the Florida hurri- canes. Not so good for the shareholders, but definitely good for the cruising public. Cruise lines offer much more flexibility than a land resort. Itineraries may need to be adjusted but it is unlikely a ship will dock on an island in the path of a hurricane. Hopefully Ivan will not bring new chaos to cruising this week. Being stuck on an island with no place to hide makes cruising an attractive option for those who travel during “Hurricane Season.” For more information on cruising, drop by and visit us at CruiseShipCenters in the Westney Heights Plaza beside Shoppers Drug Mart.

The health department has launched its second In- vite Us Along! contest, ask- ing residents to share the creative ways they get their families to eat fruits and vegetables. Durham research shows that only 34 per cent of peo- ple eat five to 10 servings of fruits and veggies each day - and the health department wants that to change. One example is to have cut up carrots, red and green peppers, broccoli, cauliflower and mushrooms with a low-fat creamy salad dressing on hand. Contest winners will be chosen at random, and will receive $75 gift certificates for participating restaurants or $50 gift certificates at participating grocery stores. The top tips and ideas will be published in a health de- partment newsletter and on Durham’s website. Entry forms are available on the site at www.region. durham.on.ca or by calling the health department at 905-723-8521 or 1-800-841- 2729.

Several officers inter- viewed after last week’s an- nouncement say Durham Regional Police command- ers continue to cast doubt on their integrity by failing to fully exonerate them. And they say the continuing in- vestigation by an internal task force investigating al- legations of excessive use of force by former Drug En- forcement Unit (DEU) cops is an attempt by police brass to save face after the lengthy criminal investigation came up empty. “I don’t trust the manage- ment of this service,” said one former drug cop, who, like his colleagues, spoke on condition of anonymity. “I don’t think the public should trust the manage- ment of this service.” On Thursday, Durham Regional Police Chief Kevin McAlpine held a news conference to tell report- ers that an OPP investiga- tion launched in early 2003 had reviewed more than 270 DEU case files after a former member of the unit made allegations of miscon- duct including assault, per- jury, theft and damage to property. The lengthy probe resulted in “no reasonable prospect of a criminal con- viction,” the chief said. The OPP handed back more than 50 files that are being probed for possible misconduct under the Po- lice Services Act. Sources say the majority of those complaints allege excessive use of force. The chief defended the investigation, which was based on a letter in January of 2003 by a single officer who’d been transferred off the squad, although he ad- mitted that the allegations came as a shock. “Given that we had not received complaints nor other indicators of any kind, we were quite taken aback,” Chief McAlpine said. Nevertheless, examina- tion of the allegations war- ranted further investigation, he said: “There was some substance to the allega- tions.” But former DEU mem- bers interviewed after the chief’s press conference say the OPP report concluded what they’ve been predict- ing for months. “We did nothing wrong,” said one officer. He said he and his former drug squad colleagues, all of whom transferred out of the unit in the months after the investigation was launched, are left disillusioned and disappointed in the police service. “You have a sense of duty and honour about this (career). They’ve taken that away,” he said. Another former DEU member expressed rage over the wording employed by the chief and the OPP in announcing there was no reasonable prospect of con- victing the officers under in- vestigation. “I’ve not been vindicated at all,” he said. “A guilty per- son would be happy with that (finding); I’m not. “What does it look like? It looks like we lied on the stand, and we stole things, (but) they couldn’t prove it. It looks like I’ve done all these things and they couldn’t prove it.” Police union representa- tives have also expressed dissatisfaction over the probe findings. Outside police headquarters in Os- hawa last week, Durham Regional Police Association vice-president Tom Bell called the wording of the announcement “political” and “gutless.” In a press release issued several hours later, Mr. Bell said the union considers the former DEU cops “vin- dicated” and called on the police service to wrap up its ongoing investigation into alleged Police Services Act infractions by the officers. “The (union) supports its members and (is) asking that the Police Services Act investigation conducted by the chief conclude as soon as possible to alleviate fur- ther stress and turmoil on our members,” his state- ment said. Mr. Bell also called on the chief to give an accounting of costs for the investiga- tions, which he speculated could adversely affect the police budget. During last week’s press conference the chief would not directly ad- dress questions about the cost of the OPP and internal investigations. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, SEPTEMBER 10, 2004 PAGE 15 A/P ▲No payments for 90 days applies to Purchase Finance offers on new 2004 Mazda vehicles and 2005 Mazda Tribute.No interest charges will apply during the first 60 days of the finance contract.

It’s difficult to estab- lish benchmarks and to comparison shop for a home renovator because people don’t shop for one as often as they shop for items such as shoes. Sam Beninato of Plumbing Mart said that a home renovation project should be a well-thought out decision. It could cost thousands of dollars and will affect your family for many years — enlisting the help of an expert is key. The first step is informa- tion gathering. Visit show- rooms, websites and publi- cations to learn what prod- ucts are available on the market. Get an overview and then narrow it down to what you really want. “The next step is having a face-to-face meeting with a specialist, not a general- ist,” Beninato said. It’s important to work with a person you feel com- fortable with. A rapport has to be established as well as a bond of trust. HIRE A SPECIALIST General contractors usu- ally have the skill to oversee an entire project and often contract out specific parts of it. Specialists focus on one trade. They do it day-in, day- out. They usually work faster because there is no learning curve and they are dedicated to the work at hand. Beninato said that con- sumers should look for spe- cialists such as those at Plumbing Mart, who can give them exact start dates, progress time and a sub- stantial completion date. “Buyers should be care- ful about vague timelines,” he said. “If you’re told that a contractor can start work in March, does that mean at the beginning of March or at the end of that month? Your life could be turned upside down for a whole month.” Consumers should also ask how long a contractor has been in business. A con- tractor that just started his business may have great intentions, but may not be able to respond appropriate- ly if an unforeseen problem is encountered. “Plumbing Mart has been in business for more than 40 years. If there is a problem we can make five phone calls and come up with five different solu- tions.” An established specialist will also have experienced several home renovating trends throughout the years and come up with its own innovations. WARRANTY Wa r ranty is a key point. Always ask if it covers the product, service, labour or all three. If a bathtub comes with a manufacturer’s warranty only, will your contractor remove it at no cost so that you can claim your warran- ty from the manufacturer? Is the cost of labour going to be charged to you? Only a specialist that stands behind all facets of its work can give consumers the peace of mid that they deserve. IT’S YOUR DREAM When telling your cho- sen renovator about your dream room, will that per- son follow your agenda or his. A good renovator should be able to think out- side the box and have the resources to deliver what you want. Once you have agreed on an idea, that ren- ovator should shop for all parts needed to complete the job. Ensure that your renova- tor also commits to dispos- ing of garbage and to leav- ing your home clean so that your family can start to enjoy the newly renovated kitchen or bathroom right away.

Single or two stage? PSC or ECM fan motor? Brand C or Brand Y? Years ago the decision was easy, you called your local oil company or gas supplier and in a few days, a new furnace would be installed in the basement. Today, more choices are available and a customer’s needs can be addressed more accurately. This is why a good heating and air conditioning contractor will make the difference. Choosing the right one is very important and the best way is by getting a good referral from a neighbour, friend or co-worker. People will usually recommend a company if their experience was a good one. Pick two or three contractors, and usually by the initial phone conversation, you can determine whether or not you feel comfortable having them to your home for a quotation. Calling every contractor and soliciting the lowest possible price isn’t the best way to initiate a purchase as important as a new heating system. Remember, you only purchase a furnace once, so make the right choice. A recent survey of HVAC equipment companies has discovered a failure rate of about 37 percent after just a few years in business. If a contractor is no longer around shortly after your installation, so much for the 10- year warranty they promised. It doesn’t sound like such a good deal any more. When looking for a contractor, be sure to ask these important questions: 1.) Do you provide 24 hour service and how large is your service department? 2.) How long has your company been in business?

Do you perform your own installations? (The use of sub-contractors can vary the quality of workmanship tremendously). Your sales rep should evaluate your needs based on the comfort level you desire, your projected length of stay in your home, energy savings and your budget. The quotation you receive should not be scribbled on a business card or furnace brochure. It should include make, model and capacity in BTU’s of the unit, installation and any modifications required to ductwork or piping. A chimney liner may be required as well as a list of accessories such as a humidifier, upgraded filter or programmable thermostat. This is followed by warranties and finally the price and terms of payment. The installation crew should look and act professional, put down drop sheets where they are walking through your home and when the job is finished, clean up and dispose of the old unit. System operation and maintenance should be included in the final steps with the customer. Regarding inspection of your installation, this is no longer the responsibility of the local municipality or gas supplier. It rests on the shoulders of a competent heating contractor and the aware consumer. With today’s technologically advanced products installed by a reputable contractor, y our home will be more comfortable and less expensive to heat. So, if your present heating system is outdated, prone to costly repairs, or if your energy costs are out of control, the best time to replace it is before the cold weather arrives. Peace of mind is only having to set your thermostat. Submitted By Advantage Airtech 905-683-4477 www.advantageairtech.com.

Once again, the Matthew family, circa 1790 to 1838, is the focal point of the retelling of life in a difficult time in Canadian history. “You meet a settler family try- ing to find their land and in two years, clear it, build a barn and a living place,” director John Ed- monds says. “You see their trials and tribulations while developing their family.” The audience sees the show, 13 one-act plays, over the course of an hour and a half, following one of eight tour guides dressed as Peter Matthew’s second wife, Han- nah. They lead groups of 15 along the trail as the drama unfolds. ‘You meet a settler family trying to find their land and in two years, clear it, build a barn and a living place.’ DIRECTOR JOHN EDMONDS The actors –– amateurs and several experienced semi-profes- sionals –– range in age from 11 to 65. Most of the 60-odd characters are real people documented in re- search by museum staff and vol- unteers. Edmonds says the grave- stones of many can still be found in cemeteries in the area. Mat- thew family members were Loy- alists who were given their land for fighting for the British, land that we now know as Pickering, he adds. Adding to the history, the mood is set for audiences on the walk by lantern and candlelight, which was relied upon during that pe- riod. The show, which gave birth to the Backwoods Players, is being staged for the last time in its pres- ent form. The performances will be tightened in 2005, but will still return. Edmonds has been with the Backwoods Players since it began a few years ago. This is his first di- rectorial experience and this show has satisfied his true passion for history. “I’m really enjoying it,” the Os- hawa school principal says. “The audience that come get to see a creative theatrical entertainment package and it’s real history, they will hear the echoes of the past.” Due to the poor lighting and the uneven terrain, wheelchair access and those who depend on walkers should make sure to inform staff of their need for assistance, Ed- monds says. He adds ticket sales have been brisk and those interested should call soon for tickets, which are $10 each and advance purchases are required. It takes place on the evenings of Sept. 17, 18, 24 and 25, each eve- ning starting at 7:45 p.m. and every 15 minutes thereafter. To order tickets or for more information, call the museum at 905-683-8401. Pickering Village Museum is at Hwy. 7, just west of Westney Road in the village of Greenwood. ‘A S pirit Walk’ is not recom- mended for children under the age of 14.

IMPORTANT SAFETY HAZARD NOTICE For more information please contact: Zellers Customer Service at 1-888-226-2225 The metal buttons found on the shoulder straps and at the waist can become detached from the garment, posing a potential choking hazard to young children. The blue denim jumper was sold as part of a 3-piece set with a striped t-shirt and matching head band (in a pink, turquoise and yellow colour combination only). It was available in sizes 3/6 months to 18/24 months at Zellers stores across Canada beginning in March 2004, for $22.97 (or less when on sale). The jumper is made of 100% cotton and the brand "Cherokee Baby®" is printed on the inside label. Although there have been no reports of injuries, Zellers has removed all remaining 3-piece sets from its stores and urges customers to stop using them immediately and return to any Zellers store in Canada for a full refund. Zellers takes its commitment and responsibility to its customers seriously. Should the Company discover a problem with any product, it will take appropriate measures to ensure the matter is brought to the attention of its customers and corrected. Zellers has learned of a potential safety hazard with an infant girls’ denim jumper sold under its CHEROKEE BABY® brand.

Ellis Kim Basinger, Chris Evans, Eric Christian Olsen, Jason Statham and William H. Macy Rated PG-13 A young man receives a call on his cellphone from a woman who says she’s been kidnapped and thinks she’s going to be killed soon, along with her hus- band and son who the kidnap- pers have gone after next. The catch? She doesn’t know where she is and his cellphone battery might go dead soon. Resident Evil: Apocalypse Directed by Alexander Witt Starring: Milla Jovovich, Si- enna Guillory, Oded Fehr, Thomas Kretschmann and Sophie Vavasseur Rated R The nightmare isn’t over. General Cain ordered The Hive to be reopened and in doing so contaminated all of Raccoon City, a city of the dead, with Alice stuck right in the middle. Now, along with other survi- vors, she must fight to escape the nightmare. And there is a new threat: Matt Addison has fully mutated into a seemingly unstoppable creature, code named Nemesis, who will stop at nothing until everything around it is dead.

The Dolphins peewees (4-0) combined methodical football on offence with a swarming defence to silence the Thunder 24-0 at L’Amoreaux Park in Scarborough. The atoms posted a comfortable 58-6 victory to remain undefeated at 4-0. The tykes (3-1), however, suffered their first loss of the sea- son, 25-6, in Central Ontario Minor Football League (COMFL) action. All three teams return to action Sunday at Kinsmen Park in Picker- ing when they host the Burlington Stampeders. The tyke game goes at 9:30 a.m., followed by the atoms at 11:30 a.m. and the peewees at 1:30 p.m. In last Sunday’s peewee en- counter, the Dolphins were led by power running back Andrew Quit- tenton, who rushed for more than 150 yards. Backfield mates Jordan Nguyen, Clayton Robichaud and David Delgado combined for an excellent day against a highly tout- ed Thunder defence. Once again, the tremendous Dolphins’ offensive line led by captain Taylor Rice worked in unison providing gaping holes for their teammates. Quarterback Tosh Miller Frances completed a 30-yard pass-and-run play to wide receiver Kyle Goffe for the Dolphins third touchdown, while Quittenton recorded the first two majors. Wide receiver Joshua Smith threw a block early in the second quarter to allow Miller Frances to scamper 20 yards down field and set up the game’s first touchdown. Special teams were also solid, converting each extra-point op- portunity while limiting the Thun- der to little or no gain on kick returns. The league-leading defensive unit combined to restrict the Thunder to little or no gain each time they ran the ball. The defen- sive line of Peter Iyamu, Kayden White, Brian Slack and Jamal Wat- son wreaked havoc on their oppo- nents. Defensive corner Michael Portener supplied numerous tack- les. In the atom contest, Dolphins’ quarterback Mikhael Cadiz ruled the air and the ground, throwing for three touchdowns and rush- ing for another. Cadiz hooked up with receiver Delino Smith, who hauled in two touchdown passes and kicked five extra points. Sandy Scotland caught the other touch- down pass. The backfield was equally pro- ductive, with running back Tyler Grayer scoring four touchdowns and Dillon Campbell rushing for 100 yards. The defence had another strong performance. Rob Sinclair blocked a punt and recovered a fumble, Shane Lock caught an intercep- tion and Dustin Kaupp recovered a fumble. Brandon Misseri was credited with a sack. Other strong efforts were turned in by defensive end Dexter Dam- boise, linebacker Adrian William- son, cornerbacks Andy Horodnyk and Jelane Roberts and safety Alyx McMillan. Devin Elms, Erich Ko, Greg Far- rell, Hayden Allen and Richard Quittenton also contributed to the winning cause. The tykes were guilty of unchar- acteristic fumbles and turnovers against Scarborough, especially in the second half. The gaffes en- abled the Thunder to get the ball in good field position, which led to the three second-half touch- downs. Running back Denver Wright scored the lone Dolphins touch- down on a sweep play in the third quarter. Wright ended the game with more than 100 yards rushing. In total, the offence had 150 rush- ing yards and seven first downs The Dolphin kick-off team led by kicker Kevin Dubra played well, recovering one short kick at the be- ginning of the game. Dolphins’ offensive stars were linemen Raekwon Grant, Kevin Rose and Jackson Harding. Defen- sive stars were linebacker Dondre Wright with nine tackles, lineman Reakwon Grant with nine tackles and corner Omar Smith with eight tackles.

The Panthers (5-3 in pre-sea- son) scorched the Axemen 8-2 in OHA Ontario Provincial Junior ‘A’ Hockey League exhibition action. The victory avenged a 4-2 loss to the Axemen (2-4 pre-season) in Ajax on Sept. 2 and should provide the Panthers with a decided lift heading into Sunday’s regular-sea- son opener against the Axemen at the Ajax Community Centre on Sunday at 3 p.m. The Panthers finished their nine-game pre-season schedule against the Capital District Selects from New York state on Thursday night, with the result unavailable at press time. We dnesday’s exhibition tilt didn’t go as smoothly for the Pan- thers as the score would indicate. Five minutes into the contest, ref- eree Dave Wedlake ordered the game moved from the complex’s Delaney rink to the adjacent O’Brien rink due to ice problems. But, overall, it was another solid effort by the Panthers whose roster is all but set for Sunday’s regular- season debut. “For whatever reason, we were the better team last night,” noted Panthers’ head coach John Wind- er. “I was very pleased with my players.” Most encouraging for Winder was the continued solid work of the Panthers veteran forward corps, who dominated the score- board against the Axemen. Rich- ard Schofield led the way with two goals and an assist. Phil McIlhone also scored twice, including the game winner. Among the other point getters were Derek Lynden and Cody Smith who each con- tributed a goal and an assist, An- drew Dissanayake, Gregg Riggs and Craig McDonald added two assists apiece. “A lot of these (veteran) guys are looking good,” says Winder. He praised the continued strong work up front by rookie Gregg Riggs, a graduate from the Ajax- Pickering Raiders ‘AAA’ minor midgets. “He has hustled and has con- tinually shown us that he wants to play hockey at this level,” says Winder. Bryan Schermele got the start in goal against Ajax and made 27 saves in the game; Ryan Daniels was to start Thursday’s final exhi- bition game against the New York squad. Winder says he’s well satisfied with his goaltending duo in ad- vance of the regular season. He notes neither Schermele or Dan- iels will get top billing as both are expected to share the puckstop- ping load. But, Winder was dismayed at the number of “stupid” penalties taken by his players in the Ajax tilt. He’s determined to keep the per- petrators on the bench so they’ll get the message about undisci- plined play. “I’m not happy with (bad penal- ties). We can’t afford them. Even if we were the best team in the league, if you’re killing penalties all the time it doesn’t work. It doesn’t allow you to get any pace or momentum going.” The assembled roster pieces, says Winder, should result in a well-balanced squad with veteran presence at every position, inter- spersed with quality rookies. Be that as it may, Winder’s still cau- tiously optimistic entering this season after last season’s eighth- place finish in the nine-team South Conference standings. “We’re pleased with the balance we have. However, we’re not mak- ing any grandiose predictions like winning a league championship,” says Winder. “Although that’s what we’re striving for, we still have a long way to go.” PANTHERS POSTSCRIPT: The Panthers dropped a 4-1 decision to the Wexford Raiders in Scar- borough on Tuesday night.
