Durham teens learn, to say 'o smoki*ng Two-day workshop helps students develop strategies Students will be given a chance to enhance their leader- ship and communication skills in a bid to give them the tools to say `no' to cigarettes. Teens Tackling Tobacco is the focus of an interactive, two-day workshop for Durham Region students in Grades 7 and 8 to be held at the Durham District School Board Educa- tion Centre in Whitby Wednes- day and Thursday, Nov. 17 and 18, from 9 a.m. to noon each day. Organizers hope the work- shop will "encourage (stu- dents) to develop strategies to address the important health issue of tobacco use among their peers," a news release from the Durham Region Health Department explains. Students will be taught skills to help them implement a "peer -led tobacco use pre- vention strategy at their school;' the release adds. Durham Regional Police Constable Brad Durst will dis- cuss communication and lead- ership skills. The average age at which regular smoking begins is 12 to 14 years, and if students can remain smoke-free until age 18, they will most likely be smoke-free for life, the health department reports. The workshop is sponsored by the health department, the public school board, the Durham Catholic District School Board and The Youth Centre. — — — — — — — — — — — — — — -� THRIFTY ME Recycle! �.

The Province is now selling the lands and current leaseholders are being given first right of refusal. Nobody representing the ORC spoke at the meeting, and calls for comment from officials there weren't returned. According to Mr. Kay, who attended the meeting with a group of other north Pickering farmers and residents, the lands are being offered to farmers at a cost of $4,(XX) to $8.(XX) per acre, too ex- pensive to make them viable as farm- land. The appraisals the prices are horsed on, he said, compare lots to other prop - -PWM ADVERTISER FRMY-EDM0N. NoVWrR1W-12, 1999 PAGE 5 P turn to Town for intervention es they shouldn't be compared to such as, in one case, a parcel that will not have an agricultural casement on it. "The appraisals are seriously flawed," maintained Mr. Kay. "They're jokes." As well, he explained, the properties are being offered in configurations that are unattractive to current leaseholders, or that amalgamate lands currently leased separately by different people. "The ORC is engineering bidding wars between neighhours to drive prices up." charged Mr. Kay at the meeting. Another harrier to purchases by cur- rent leaseholders, he said, is that after re- ceiving over -priced appraisals, they are being given four months to buy the land or lose it. So, Mr. Kay said, farmers without enough money to buy the land at the ap- praised prices, and some just looking to make money, arc arranging deals to have the property they have first right to pur- chased by third parties, and sometimes leased hack to them to farm. Ward 2 Regional Councillor Doug Dickerson said council might soon put together a resolution -to urge the ORC to come hack to realism". He suggested $1,5(x) to $2,5(X) per acre was a more appropriate price for agricultural land. Ward 3 Councillor Rick Johnson said he and Ward 3 local Councillor David Pickles may bring a resolution before council next week to deal with the addi- tional problems brought forward by citi- zens at Monday's meeting.

And, the coach of the Ajax -Pickering Dolphins peewee team hopes his 28 charges will pick this Sunday's game to come up with their finest performance. "It's been a great season," says Jim Bardgett, who's in his first year as head coach of the peewees after three years as an assistant. "We've been going for over six months, practising three times a week, so it's a big commitment. There's been a lot of hours put into it, but if we win Sunday it will have all been worth it." Sunday's game is the Central On- tario Minor Football League champi- onship final with the third -ranked Dol- phins facing the number -one Burling- ton Stampeders at Scarborough's Birchmount Stadium at 1:30 p.m. The game holds even more significance as the victor will automatically win the coveted Wilson Bowl trophy, symbolic of provincial minor football suprema- cy. The Ontario title is on the line be - Al Rivett Sports Editor cause the Southern Ontario Minor Football League has decided not to contest the Wilson Bowl against the COMFL this year. Coach Bardgett is buoyant heading into Sunday's game even though his charges are the underdogs. The Dol- phins finished with an impressive 7-3 record, good enough for third place in the COMFL. The Stampeders finished first overall with a mark of 9-0-1. The coach's confidence stems from the Dolphins' play in October and this month. The team has won six games in a row, including two victories over Scarborough Thunder, who they had- n't defeated in two years. Most recent- ly, the Dolphins beat the Thunder in the semi-final last weekend. Throughout the winning streak, the team's multi -dimensional offence has scored with increasing regularity. In the last two playoff games against Markham and Scarborough, the team has scored a whopping 92 points. The peewees even boast a bona fide kicking threat, rare in that age group. Quarterback and kicker James Leckey of Ajax can nail not only converts, but field goals, with alarming accuracy. "Our offence has come on like gangbusters," motes coach Bardgett. The offence is just flying." With everything on the line in Sun- day's final, he hopes his charges haven't peaked too early. All evidence over the past six games points to the contrary. With any luck, November will also be an undefeated month for the Dolphins' peewees. E-mail comments on flus column to nnews@durham.net.

GROIN/ News Advertiser photo A suspect surrenders to police in Oshawa Wednesday afternoon following a five-hour standoff with Durham police. Two others surrendered shortly thereafter. BY STEPHEN SHAW Staff Writer Two men appeared in court yesterday charged with second-degree murder after a homeless man was beaten to death in a pedestrian tunnel in what po- lice arc saying was a "totally unpro- voked attack." Durham Regional Police said the 44 - year -old victim, a drifter with no crimi- nal record, was apparently targeted for no reason other than his "demeanor." Two people called 911 after they found his body on the sidewalk in a pedestrian tunnel on Ritson Road South, below the Hwy. 401 bridge, at 2:50 a.m. Wednesday. The man, reportedly bleed- ing from head injuries, was pronounced dead at the scene by the coroner. 'The upper part of the body dis- played obvious signs of trauma." said Sergeant Jim Grimley, police spokesman. An autopsy performed yesterday de- termined the victim died of bleeding in the brain caused by numerous "blunt force injuries." It's the region's first homicide of 1999. Within a few hours of the discovery, as forensic identification officers exam- ined the walkway and collected poten- tial evidence, a tense stand-off began to unfold at a boarding house a few blocks away from the scene. Sgt. Grimley said witnesses provided descriptions of the suspects and a subse- quent tip led police to the residence on Stacey Avenue at about 6 a.m. Heavily -armed Tactical Support Unit officers surrounded the home a short time later after a suspect contacted by telephone refused to surrender, he said. Police said they feared the possibility there were weapons in the house and blocked off the street. Residents were ordered to remain in their homes and stay away from windows; many were prevented from getting to work. Offi- cials at nearby schools were told to keep children indoors during the morning re- cess and lunch hour. Almost seven hours later, after a po- lice negotiator communicated by phone with the occupants in the home, and homicide detectives returned with a warrant allowing them to enter the resi- dence, the standoff ended peacefully. The first suspect, wearing shorts and a T-shirt, was taken into custody after emerging from the house with his arms in the air at 11:40 a.m. About an hour later, another man surrendered. An unidentified woman in the home was also arrested, but later released uncondi- tionally. Homicide detectives spent yes- terday trying to piece together the last moments of the victim's life, including an incident at a Bloor Street East dough- nut shop, just west of the walkway where the man's body was found. It's believed the dishevelled -looking man was having a coffee at Pete's Donuts when a woman working in the shop became fearful of him. "She was afraid simply because of the way he looked, his demeanor... and called a friend," Sgt. Grimley said. A short time later, two men arrived and confronted the victim, who eventu- ally left the shop, he said. Police suspect he was followed from the doughnut shop and attacked inside the tunnel. "From what we understand, he basi- cally was (targeted) because of the way he looked. It was a totally unprovoked attack," Sgt. Grimley said. "It's really pathetic. Here's an inno- cent victim who may have simply just looked at someone the wrong way." Police seized surveillance videotape from the doughnut shop and are appeal- ing to anyone in the shop or the area be- tween midnight and 3 a.m. Wednesday to call the homicide unit at 579-1520, ext. 5401. Police say they know the vic- tim's identity but are having trouble lo- cating relatives, therefore are waiting to released his name. Dave Anthony Morrison, 21, of no fixed address, and John Joseph Oliver, 31, of Stacey Avenue, both appeared briefly at the King Street East court- house yesterday morning charged with second-degree murder. Mr. Morrison was wanted on an out- standing warrant for failing to appear in court last month on an unrelated charge of threatening. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 436-8477. Student tests should help kids, not rank schools: Catholic board "Not all kids Team on the same day and not all kids learn in the same way." That's the message Durham Catholic District School Board superintendent of programs Gerry Blake wants parents to remember when they're reviewing the board's results in the provincewidc reading, writ- ing and mathematics tests, he told trustees this week. The Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) released the results of the Grade 3 and 6 reading, writing and mathematics tests in October. "Our board has been very supportive of the EQAO ini- tiative," Mr. Blake told trustees. "We test kids for two reasons — to see if they learned what we thought we taught them and to see how we can improve our pro- grams. The assessments, de- signed to provide a snapshot of students' learning skills, are bayed on the Province's new elementary school cur- riculum. The next round of assessments will be held in May 2000. EQAO probes results of two Durham Catholic schools The Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) is investigating the results of the Grade 6 read- ing, writing and mathematics tests at two Oshawa Catholic schools at the request of Durham's separate board. Durham Catholic District School Board director Grant Andrews says there was "ob- viously a problem" with the results in the Grade 6 tests at Canadian Martyrs and Father Francis Mahoney Catholic schools in Oshawa "We talked to the EQAO and they're investigating it," Mr. Andrews says. "I think there's been a mistake made." At Canadian Martyrs, the EQAO reported there was "not enough information to score" pupils in the reading and math results. But, the provincial agency said 57 per cent of students at that school achieved a level three or four in writing. Meanwhile, at Father Francis Mahoney, the EQAO reported only nine per cent of students scored a level three or four in the Grade 6 read- ing and math assessments and 29 per cent made that grade in the writing test. "It would appear there's been an obvious problem," Mr. Andrews says. "I think the difficulty has been at the EQAO level, not the school level."

AND EVERY NIGHT Durham seniors invited to `Safe -tea' Event organized to raise awareness about falls Seniors and those who care them are invited to a 'Safe -tea' that will raise awareness of the severe health risks associated with falls among the elderly. The event, hosted by the Durham Region Health Department in co-op- eration with the Alzheimer's Society of Durham Region, is being held Tuesday, Nov. 30 in recognition of National Senior Safety Week. In 1994, Durham Region had the highest rate of falls among seniors in the Central East Region of Ontario, as reported by the Central East Area Emergency Health Services Com- mittee. According to that report, at least 21 of every 1,000 seniors in Durham had suffered some form of injury as the result of a fall. Falls are the leading cause of in- jury and the leading cause of death among older adults in Ontario, ac- cording to the Ontario Medical As- sociation. Findings from that association also indicate that nearly 600 Ontario seniors die each year as a direct or indirect result of falling. And falls account for nearly 56 per cent of all accidental deaths among seniors nationally, Statistics Canada reports. Topics covered at 'Safe -tea' in- clude tips on preventing falls and in- formation on the Alzheimer Society and its community services. There will also be displays from a number of community agencies, door prizes and a light lunch. The event will be held from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. at the Uxbridge Senior Centre, 75 Marietta St., Uxbridge. Admission is free. For more information, call Barb Wilson -Meyers at the Uxbridge of- fice of the Durham Region Health Department at (905) 852-9161.

Sometimes you feel concerned about having us Pickering Nuclear generating station as a next door neighbour. You have questions about our operations. Especially questions about safety and the environment. You want to know what were doing to make sure you and your community are safe and healthy. Or find out what steps N%t-'p- saki n,, -,r to protect the parks you walk in and the water you drink. In this series of ads. were int rodueingyou to some of the people with the answers to those questions people who are working hard to keep the Pickering Nuclear plant safe foryou and your neighbours. My name is Jamie Lawrie. I'm Section Manager for Environmental Projects at Pickering Nuclear. My job involves investigating and correcting problems at the site related to the environment. People are interested in my job and I'm often asked questions about how we deal with environmental issues here at the station. Q Is it true that the ground under Pickering Nuclear is contaminated? Is it a health threat to my family? A Yes, there is a small amount of contamina- tion, and no, it's not a health threat to the local community. Here's the situation. We've confirmed the presence of tritium in the ground under a few isolated areas near our station. However, the amounts involved are very small, and drinking water samples taken several times a day at every water supply plant within 20 kilometres of the station show no increases in average tritium levels. Tritium occurs naturally in the lake and is usually present at concentrations of about 2 to 4 becquerels per litre. The becquerel is a measure of radioactivity. Average tritium concentration in local drinking water for the last five years is about 15 becquerels per litre - a small fraction of the drinking water objective of 7,000 becquerels per litre set by provincial authorities. For more information, visit our web site at: www.ontariopowergeneration.com/pickering Q What are you doing about the contamination? A We're acting now to identify all sources of contamination and to stop it. This year we spent more than $4 million on studies of groundwater all over our site, using 230 monitoring wells. Samples taken from those wells are already giving us a very complete picture of the quality of groundwater under the site and where it's moving. We're also looking for traces of contami- nation by other substances, like fuel oil, metals and chemicals, as well as tritium. The results of the study will be available to the public and the provincial Ministry of the Environ- ment by the end of April next year. That informa- tion will help determine what else we need to do to stop further contamination and to clean up the groundwater under the station.

Problem: I live in a condo by the lake and i have a wall of windows facing south in my living room. Although I love the wonderful view. in the summer, it can be quite hot even with the air conditioning running. Currently, I have plain white aluminum blinds on the windows. My bedroom also has a large window and unfortunately. it faces east so there is little chance to sleep in. Currently I have mini blinds on this window. Solution: Condo's with a wall of windows can present some difficult challenges. Although. there is hope' As I see it. your window covering solution must solve the following problems: • Block the sun and repel the heat year round to make the space cool and energy efficient. • Impede the morning light so you can sleep in. • .-\llow for full to partial view of the outside. • Be pretty and attractive. The first item I would consider is having the windows tinted. Professionally installed window film will help immensely: Low emission films will keep the view unobstructed and greatly assist in keeping the area energy efficient by reflecting the sun's damaging rays. Dress the window simply with panels of fabric in the corners. that are on a clean rod system. This will soften the windows and add that pretty detailing you are looking for, to frame the view. Remember to pay special attention to color choice. Selecting fabrics that are either the same color as the walls or a neutral colour. With regards to your bedroom window, consider various styles of soft pleated or honeycomb shades, or a Roman blind. All offer wide colour and texture selections with room darkening backing that block virtually all of the sunlight. Another option, based on available installation, are California or Plantation shutters. The above mentioned treatments may be operated through remote control motorization. This is an ideal solution if any of the windows are particularly tall or hard to reach. The motorised units also can he set using timers to open and close at specific times throughout the day to either block or reveal. Automated treatments can increase the efficiency of the heating and cooling system.

Public board trustees Monday unanimously approved the debenture, which will pay for the new schools and additions included in the hoard's system -wide accommodation and school improvement plan passed by trustees last year. "For the first time we had to go out and borrow the money," says superin- tendent of business Ron Trhovich. He explains that, under the Province's new funding formula, Queen's Park expects boards to use the annual grants they receive for new pupil places "to help pay for schools by borrowing the money" The annual grants from the gov- ernment represent the payments to that debt, he adds. The $160 -million debenture, or loan, will he paid over a 20 -year peri- od, Mr. Trhovich reports, so the hoard will pay approximately $16 million per year. According to a board report, "Cur- rent debenture interest rates applica- ble to the board are approximately 6.7 to 6.8 per cent." That translates into an annual pay- ment of $15,600,000. But, the actual cost to the board and the amount of the annual pay- ments won't he known until the debenture is issued. "For 1999-2000, the hoard will re- ceive grant:; for school rencµal anal new pupil places in the order of $21.4 million," the report states. "The difference between the debt service cost and the actual grants received will he placed in the debenture debt reduction reserve fund to fur- ther reduce the long-term costs of this debenture issue." Mr. Trhovich also reports the board received the highest possible credit rating from the Canadian Bond Rating Service recently. And, that 'AA-' rating, which is the highest level rat- ing for school boards, is "di- rectly related to the past fiscal prudence demonstrated by the (ho and )." he notes. ,.A" • IN W THE RIGHT YKATIOIJ!

I p g Public school board trustees and students have honoured a man they affec- tionately call 'Mr. VIP'. The Durham District School Board thanked Durham Regional Police t Constable Peter Bramma for his contribution to the board's popular Values. In- fluences and Peers (VIP) program. Const. Bramma. a 30 - year police veteran. is retir- ing after heading the Grade 6 program for the past 14 years. Designed to teach stu- dents respect for the law, VIP is runningin more than 140 elementary schools across the region this year. And. as Const. Bramma told the board. "No one can measure the impact the VIP program can have on a stu- dent" The long-time officer told trustees his involve - 9 I ment with the program has been the "highlight" of his career. -For those of us who know Peter Bramma, he's great, he's truly great;' said police Inspector John Hamilton, who commend- ed his colleague for his in- fluence on Durham's stu- dents. "He's the one who sold it to the kids," student trustee Sundecp Sodhi said of Const. Bramma's enthu- siasm for the program. Mr. Sodhi, an OAC stu- dent at Whitby's Anderson Collegiate and Vocational Institute, participated in the program under Const. Bramma's leadership sev- eral years ago. "He's a mentor, but he's also a friend;" he said. Oshawa Trustee Susan Sheller added, "Const. Bramma is a role model for police officers and stu- dents."

Peewee Dolphins tackle Ontario football crown BY AL R1V1;7T Sports &htor The Ajax -Pickering Dolphins peewee t'(mtball team is pumped and prepared to unseat the favoured Burlington Stampedcrs ;n the Central Ontario Minor Football League (COMFI_) championship in Scar- b)rough Sunday. The Dolphins (7-3) enter the COMFI, title game as the third hest team in the league this season while the Stampeders (9- 0- 1) 9- 0-1) finished tint. The game's slated for Scartxxough's Birchmount Stadium with a 1:30 p.m. kick- Iff. While it may be: a daunting task to de- feat the top-ranked Stampeders. Dolphins' head coach Jim Bardgett is confident his 28 -member team of 13 to 15 year olds can deliver the first championship for a Dol- phins' peewees squad in seven years. " I'he kids are so pumped right now, they can feel that championship trophy in their hands;' says Bardgett, in his first season as a head coach after three years as an assis- tant. " 1 think we're readv to go. I think we're really confident. '%'e've gelled tx)th offensivcly and defensiveh in the last six games. The confidence of his charges is merit- ed, notes Bardgett. Two weeks ago, the peewees defeated the ScarKwough Thun- der, a team they hadn't defeated in two years. The Dolphins earned their trip to the COMFL title game after knocking off the same Scarborough squad 40-12 last week in the semi-final game at Birchmount Sta- dium. The Dolphins are also coming off six consecutive wins, having gone undefeated throughout October and half of November. Offensively, the team has been on a mis- sion in the past two games, %oring 92 points. In these contests, the team punted only twice, as the Dolphins' offence hal been able to consistently connect for first - down yardage, either on the ground or through the air. The key to the Dolphins' offence has been the play of quarterback and kicker James Lcckcv of Ajax. Leckcv "can kick field goals which is al- most unheard of at this Ic%cl,' says Bard- gett. "As Ion,! as the snap is gox)d, he'll put it up" But, the Dolphins don't rel} on just one player to get the job done. If an opposition coach tries to key on one aspect of the Ajax -Pickering offence, there's always an- other facet of the game that can he utilized. explains Bardgett. -Most teams have one or two guys you have to key on. In my case, I've got two amazing running backs. two great ends and two receivers I can go to. And. Lecke% can run with the ball if he has to. I can run the ball or I can pass the hall. It's unusual for a team to have that ability at the peewee level." Defensive!%, the team has improved throughout the 1999 COMFL campaign. In the early going, the Dolphins' defence was giving up an average of 26 points a game. That average has now dropped to 14 points per contest. This year's COMFL championship holds special significance as it will also de- termine the «'ilson Bowl winner, symtx)lic of the provincial championship for minor peewee football. The Southern Ontario Minor Football League will not send repre- sentative teams to compete for the Wilson Bowl this sea -son. Pickering elementary teacher a marathon winner BY BRIAN McNAIR Staff Wnter What started out as a training run turned out to be a Canadian In- ternational Marathon victory for Manuel Salvati recently. Salvati, a 36 -year-old Durham resident and Pickering elementary school teacher, signed up for the Toronto event simply to use it as preparation for a marathon being held in Houston in January. When he found himself leading about midway through the 42 -kilometre run, he decided to go for the victo- ry. "It's close to what I've run be- fore, but it's not as good as I hope to do in Houston," says Salvati, who crossed the finish line two hours and 28 minutes after he start- ed. "It felt quite nice to be able to win." Salvati, who felt well enough to run another 25 km as part of his training the day after his marathon win, says he would like to break the 2:20 mark someday. "When I get under 2:20, I won't be able to walk the next day," he says. A Grade 6 teacher at Picker- ing's Highbush Public School, Sal- vati coaches cross-country run- ning, basketball and track and field. He says the youthful exuber- ance shown by the athletes he coaches is inspiring. "If that's not a motivator, I don't know what is;' Salvati says of watching children finish a cross- country race. MANUEL SALVATI Salvati also completed full marathons in 1990 and 1993, but he took a break following the birth of his first child. The time he posted in Toronto qualities him to run in the presti- gious Boston Marathon. Although he says Boston has never been in his plans, he is now considering it "at the very least for the experi- ence: ' Other reasons for running are to "enjoy the camaraderie" and to "compete with myself;" Salvati says. About 6,000 runners took part in the Toronto marathon, which is a fund-raiser for Princess Margaret Hospital. Salvati cruised to the win, fin- ishing four minutes ahead of run- ner-up Scott Vining of Owen Sound. 3.� 4 P PAGE 34 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, November 12,19M Y Peewee Panthers' _ a • of n,1, h ;w "'' a �`=+ems« tla<,a- �� nk s. 1 •*ar.._ „1 . pipe protectors �;~ ¢ �L �� ., ,� �� � � �-r;. r a '•; � � i I are perfect PICKERING — The Pickering Panthers minor peewee select hockey team continues to pile up the vic- tories, earning three more wins recently to run its record to a perfect 6-0. In its most recent game against the previously unde- feated Whitby Wildcats, the Pickering selects responded with a 3-0 win. Pickering took a quick first -period lead on goals by Bobby Clark and K},le Walker, as- sisted by Ryan Van Santvoort, Bryan Cruse, Justin Bruce and Josh Lin- kletter. After a scoreless sec- ond period, Van Santvoort added an insurance marker in the final frame, assisted by Walker. The Panthers also defeat- ed the Bradford Bulldogs 3- 2. Pickering took a quick two -goal lead on goals by Chris Attard and Clark, as- sisted by Matthew Perrault, Ryan Lindsay, Walker and Cruse. The Bulldogs charged back with two goals in the third period, before Kyle Fredericks scored the game winner with five min- utes remaining in the game. Bruce and Derek Savoie earned assists. The Pickering peewees blanked the Markham Wax- ers 3-0. Pickering jumped out to a 2-0 lead early in the game on goals by Fredericks and Linkletter. Fredericks added his second goal of the contest in the second period to seal the victory. Steve Loder and Cruse were cred- ited with assists. Also play- ing solid games were Craig Deebank, Leland Street, Taylor Gray, Adam Turi and Matthew Evans. During their strong start to the season, the peewees have received brilliant goal- tending from the tandem of Robert Morra and Matt Mc- Mulkin, who have recorded two shutouts apiece. The de- fence has also been stingy, allowing the opponents a meagre 46 shots on net. The offence has pummelled op- posing goalies with 1.10 op- portunities.
