Members of the Drug Enforce- ment and Gang Enforcement units executed a search warrant at the Montrave Avenue house the day after police responded to reports of gunfire at the residence. During a search, cops discovered a loaded handgun, a bulletproof vest and 40 grams of crack cocaine, among other items. The investigation began around 5 p.m. Tuesday when police sur- rounded the house after a report of a gunshot. Officers who removed a woman and seven men from the residence became suspicious of drug activity, police said. On We dnesday the search war- rant was executed. Charged with weapons and drug offences are: Nicholas Balgobin, 20, of Major Oaks Drive in Pickering; Dustin For tin, 23, McNaughton Avenue, Oshawa; Cheyenne Flaxman, 19, Arthur Street, Oshawa; Michael Meszaros, 21, McMillan Street, Oshawa; Jordan Lebreton, 20, Lomond Drive, Oshawa; Michael Smith, 22, Rideau Streret, Oshawa, Ethan Tower, 24, Celina Street, Oshawa, and 19-year-old Adam Odette, of no fixed address. Pickering Muslims condemn attacks By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING — Pickering Mus- lims condemned the terrorists act that took place in London Thurs- day and prayed for the victims at a weekly service. “We totally condemn those ac- tions. We condemn violence. We advocate peace, that’s what our re- ligion is about,” said Mohammed Rahim, president of the Pickering Islamic Centre. Those attending Friday’s service prayed for the victims, as well as their families. With a group with ties to al-Qaida claiming respon- sibility for the actions that killed at least 49 people and injured more than 700, there is fear of anger to- wards Muslims around the world and locally. “O ne of the things we worry about here as Muslims is the back- lash,” said Iqbal Ibrahim. “We want to make sure this does not defame the Muslim community in Canada or Ontario, or the religion itself.” Mr. Rahim said after the attacks on Sept. 11 some people he knows received the odd negative call, but that for the most part the com- munity understood those who commit these acts of terror do not represent the Muslim community. Mr. Rahim said a major part of Islam is to have peace in your home and the world. “The people who are doing this are not Muslims,” he said. Mr. Ibrahim agreed. “We don’t consider them being of Islam,” he said. He elaborated in a prepared statement. “To those who would commit such acts in the name of Islam, we say, that they are distorting and defaming a religion whose very name comes from the word peace,” he wrote. Mayor Dave Ryan spoke before prayers started to express his soli- darity, and the community’s, with them. “I wanted to come here today to reassure you we stand with you,” he said in the mosque. Outside he explained why he decided to speak. “It was important to be here because there is obviously going to be some backlash. Some people will respond with anger and some with ignorance,” Mayor Ryan said.

The Ministry of Municipal Affairs is holding a public open house Thursday, July 14 to make the plan available for community comment. At the event the public can get a copy of the proposed plan with an attached map, as well as summaries of the background studies used in preparation of the plan. Residents have 60 days from the session to submit feedback or writ- ten submissions to the ministry. Bryan Kozman, of the North Pickering Land Exchange Team, didn’t see a problem with holding the open house in the middle of July, when many people may be away on vacation. “The sense was this isn’t the only opportunity for people to get the plan,” he said, adding it would be available online. Mr. Kozman said there are no time- line constraints that dictated when the open house would be held. He said the consultants finished the plan and now, “we would like to get the product into the hands of as many people as pos- sible.” The ministry’s consultant team will be available at the open house to an- swer questions. This is the third public meeting to be held on the development plan, which is being prepared under the authority of the Ontario Planning and Develop- ment Act for the provincially owned lands. In an effort to protect the Oak Ridg- es Moraine, the Province is swapping lands in Seaton for privately owned lands on the Oak Ridges Moraine in Richmond Hill. That swap is subject to a class environmental assessment, which is still being completed. The open house is at Dunbarton- Fairport United Church, 1066 Dunbar- ton Rd., from 5 to 10 p.m. PICKERING — A world-renowned devotional singer is in Pickering today. Narendra Chanchal and his group of musicians are the highlight of the an- nual cultural program, July 10, hosted at the Devi Mandir Temple. More than 10 performances are expected.

Transit takes precautions, but OPG tight-lipped By Jennifer Stone Staff Writer DURHAM — Though Canada was not under di- rect threat after the transit system bombings in Lon- don Thursday morning, GO Transit was stepping up se- curity across its system. At GO Transit, “everything we’re doing is as a precau- tion,” said spokeswoman Stephanie Sorensen. “There is no direct threat at this time.” Nonetheless, security was stepped up across the GO system, and “we’re remind- ing staff and customers to be extra vigilant,” said Ms. Sorensen. Meanwhile, Ontario Power Generation re- mained tight-lipped about whether the suspected ter- rorist attacks had prompted any increase in security at its Durham-based nuclear plants. “No comment,” said OPG spokesman John Earl. Speaking to CTV’s Cana- da AM, David Harris, former Canadian Security Intelli- gence Service chief of stra- tegic planning, said though there hadn’t been a recent specific threat against Can- ada, people should always be prepared for the possi- bility. “The honest truth is that we should be running our- selves as though this was the day-to-day threat that we’re all facing because it’s been so defined by our en- emies from bin Laden on down,” said Mr. Harris. Arthurs is new assistant to finance minister DURHAM — Pickering- Ajax-Uxbridge MPP Wayne Arthurs has a new job. Mr. Arthurs has been ap- pointed the parliamentary assistant to Finance Min- ister Greg Sorbara. Prior to the new posting, Mr. Ar- thurs had been the PA to the management board of cabinet. Premier Dalton Mc- Guinty shuffled his cabinet last week, with some ministers moving to new positions and some parliamen- tary assistants also changed. “I’m extremely pleased with this latest opportu- nity. I’m looking forward to work- ing with Minister Sorbara, and to making a positive contribution to the Ministry of Finance,” Mr. Arthurs said in a release. The new job was announced Monday. Mr. Arthurs also continues in his current role as chairman of the 905 Lib- eral Caucus. Mr. Sorbara retained his po- sition as finance minister, a job he’s held since the Liberals were elected in 2003.

The issue was raised last month by Ajax Mayor Steve Parish, who suggested a question about direct election for Durham’s top position should be on the November 2006 mu- nicipal ballot across the region. But his motion went down to a resounding 19-7 defeat. Still, Ajax will carry on by adding the question to its own municipal ballot, giving Durham Re- gion citizens a snapshot about the feelings of one municipal- ity, anyway. Even though there won’t be a regionwide referendum on the regional chairman’s position, if enough municipalities follow Ajax’s example, we could certainly get a clear picture of where the voting public stands. The issue of direct election of a regional chairman simply boils down to democracy and accountability. With the re- gional chairman now only responsible to the regional coun- cillors who elect him, his accountability to the public who pay his salary is negligible. It shouldn’t be that way. In a democracy, the regional chairman should depend upon the will of the public to keep his position. That can only be done through direct election. Arguments about the position bringing party politics into regional council are spurious. In an open system that allows anybody to run for regional chairman, whoever is chosen after a fair and public campaign must deal with people of all political stripes at a local, provincial and national level. The desire to pose the question about direct election of a regional chairman has nothing to do with the performance of the current chairman, who has held the position since 1997. Roger Anderson has worked hard and been diligent in his duty to get the best deal possible for Durham citizens. In fact, he is held in such high esteem that he was elected president of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario. He is as comfortable dealing with prime ministers and premiers as he is with local politicians and people. That’s all the more reason to put the position to the elec- tors of Durham. Mr. Anderson would be tough to beat. So why are councillors reluctant to put the position to the test? M-banding goes back to the 1990s To the editor: Re: ‘Pickering High student roots out the mutations,’ June 15. Further to the story, I think it would be important to also note the following: Multicolour banding was established in the late 1990s, with 1997 and 1999 the earliest dates in which M-banding was proposed. Secondly, the idea of using M-banding to detect damage to Chromosome 8 of cells irra- diated in the laboratory was proposed by Dr. Don Morrison at Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., who was my supervisor for this project.

A few months ago, I received a phone call at home from a com- pany conducting a survey on rid- ing bicycles in Durham Region Living in Scugog, I had to laugh at some of the questions I heard. The woman conducting the interview still asked me every question and laughed with me a couple of times as well after I explained where I lived. You see, she didn’t know anything about Port Perry. She asked me about taking local tran- sit — which I explained is basically non- existent in Port Perry — and using bike paths to get around town, also nearly non-existent. But when it came time to ask me whether myself or my family would ride more if bike paths were created, it was downright silly. Not only the question itself, but how they asked it. It was like a Quebec referendum question in its confusing structure. To paraphrase: ‘Would you be more likely; a little more likely; not likely; or not likely at all to ride more if bike paths were created?’ And there were several questions like this at the end of her 10- to 15-minute fact-finding mission. I thought I’d be exempt from some of the questions because they weren’t relevant, but no she told me, she had to have an answer for every one of them. Yo u have to think the results are going to be a little skewed depending on who they called in this survey. It’s a great idea to consider ways to get people out of their cars and onto bikes, but isn’t this an issue that can be figured out without an expensive survey? The basic facts are inescapable: Bike paths are great where they can be used, but they are in no way an alternative to get- ting around in north Durham. So, call- ing anyone north of Taunton Road was a waste of time. In south Durham, on the other hand, they are a possibility, but only for half the year and really more for exercise and recreation. Is that really a good rea- son to go crazy making more bike paths than necessary? Well, the Region thinks so and a plan is underway to make more paths over the course of the next 20 years. I’m all for listening to the public, but this plan is half-baked at best. The real- ity is most people won’t leave their cars behind for pedal power. Not for shop- ping, getting to work or basically the majority of tasks we use a car for. Make all the off-road trails and road paths you want Durham, especially in areas dangerous to cyclists. But don’t fool yourself into thinking it’s transpor- tation. In Durham, cycling is recreation and nothing more. David Stell’s column appears every third Sunday. E-mail dstell@durham region.com.

Reporter Mike Ruta and photographer Walter Passarella will retell the stories they’ve heard and the things they’ve seen in this summer-long series which will be pub- lished each Sunday. By Mike Ruta Staff Writer IQALUIT — Nunavut, which means “our land” in Inuktitut, was born April 1, 1999. Canada’s third territory occupies a huge chunk of the country, one-fifth or two mil- lion square kilometres, stretching from Baf- fin Island in the east to Great Bear Lake in the west, from the northern tip of Ellesmere Island to 60 degrees north latitude, which forms the northern border of the western provinces. The islands in Hudson and James bays are part of Nunavut as well. Nunavut is big, but sparsely populated. Only approximately 30,000 people live there, 7,000 alone in Iqaluit, the capital. There are 28 communities in Nunavut and Inuit make up 85 per cent of the population. The people of Nunavut are called Nunavummiut. Photographer Walter Passarella and I spent a week in the territory in May, coin- ciding with a trip 15 Durham soccer players made to Iqaluit for a tournament. Over the next two months, we’ll share stories and photographs on Nunavut life on Fridays in the Metroland Durham Region Media Group’s community newspapers. We found the Inuit friendly and interest- ing. Iqaluit is a place where ancient tradi- tions and culture mix with the contempo- rary world. There are probably more white people in the capital than anywhere else in the territory — and as we learned, if you’re white in Iqaluit, you’re probably from New- foundland originally, like our frequent and excellent hosts, Travis Hoffe and Todd Janes, Inuksuk High School teachers and soccer tournament organizers. Some Inuit, especially those of high school age, were pretty reticent when it came to in- terviews. A local reporter told us it took her some time to be recognized as ‘Kathleen from the newspaper.’ It turns out people are a bit over-covered by media, if you can believe it. But it stands to reason: the town has two newspapers and a CBC office. And a number of celebrities and politicians visit Iqaluit because it’s the capital, bringing with them throngs of photographers and report- ers. Salma Hayek had just left when we ar- rived. “Is this an interview?” a high school student groaned when approached. Still, we talked to many people and expe- rienced a lot. We ate raw caribou. We saw some of the country outside of town on an Inuit-guided trip by snowmobile. We heard excellent throat-singing. Canada has two official languages, but Nunavut has four: English, French, Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtun. Nunavut’s government runs on the con- sensus system; there are no political parties. There are 19 members of the Legislative as- sembly, located in Iqaluit. “They have discussions and debates until they come to an agreement, and when there’s a tie it’s usually the speaker who breaks it,” says Cindy Rennie, a government public relations officer. Although just six years old, Nunavut was in the works for 25 years, and is the result of a land claims agreement between the Inuit of the eastern arctic and the federal govern- ment. Negotiations between the two began in 1976, continuing through the 1980s. In 1992, 85 per cent of eligible Inuit in the future territory voted in favour of the agree- ment. The following year, the Canadian par- liament approved it, making it law. In exchange for giving up aboriginal title to their lands, the main benefits to the Inuit include receiving ownership of roughly 18 per cent of the land in Nunavut, 356,000 square kilometres, including sub-surface or mineral rights to two per cent of territo- rial lands, 36,257 square kilometres. There is also a cash settlement of $1.2 billion dollars over 14 years. The agreement was hailed for giving the Inuit control over their own destiny, en- suring the survival of their language and culture and creating economic opportuni- ties. But this bright future appears a bit slow in coming to some, while others, such as Jacopoosie Peter, say the agreement didn’t benefit the Inuit in the first place. “We formed a group; we studied the agree- ment,” says Mr. Peter, a resident of Apex, near Iqaluit. “We realized Nunavut was just a name change, nothing else changed. The bureaucracy was going to be the bureau- cracy.” He mocks the notion of Inuit ‘ownership’ of lands, saying Inuit can’t sell the land and don’t have sub-surface rights to most of it. The agreement states Inuit can only sell or trade their land to government. Where companies produce minerals, oil or gas on Crown lands in the territory, 50 per cent of the first $2 million in royalties goes to the Inuit, and thereafter five per cent of any additional money. Those funds and money from the cash settlement are held by the Nunavut Trust, for the benefit of all Inuit. Nunavut is also a potential treasure chest of riches. Diamond, gold and base metal deposits are being explored. The Kitikmeot region’s first diamond mine, Jericho, is ex- pected to be in production by next year. New commercial fisheries are being established to harvest fish and shrimp. The arts contin- ues to be an important part of the economy, with more than one in four Nunavummiut involved in arts production in some way. We hope you enjoy the trip North to Nun- avut. newsdurhamregion.com searchkeyword:nunavut2005 Next week: IQALUIT, Life in Nunavut’s capital is big on beauty, not so big on rules PHOTO: A tullugag (raven) takes flight over frozen Frobisher Bay.

Podiatrist foot specialist Now that summer has finally arrived and the temperature continually increases, we all look for ways to deep cool. What better way than a trip to the beach or a swimming pool. Competitive swimmers spend most of their time in a pool and suffer from a specific foot tendonitis, while the recreational swimmers’ injuries include puncture wounds, marine animal stings and sunburn that occurred at the each or ocean. The most common injury for the competitive swimmer is a tendonitis of the extension muscle (muscle on the top of the foot). The repetitive nature of kicking by forcing the toes down (plantar flexing) and pushing the water will cause an inflammation of the extensor tendons. Only the breaststroke does not involve this type of kick. Tr eatment of extensor tendonitis injuries involves rest, To Advertisein thisHEALTH & WELLNESSHEALTH & WELLNESSfeaturecontact Susan Fleming at 905-683-5110 durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JULY 10, 2005 PAGE 9 A/P Some pearls on swimming and beach injuries continued icing and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories. The most common injury for the recreational swimmer is puncture wounds. These can occur by stepping on a foreign object either while walking on the beach or swimming in a lake or ocean. The easiest way to avoid these injuries is to wear beach shoes. However, if a cut occurs, clean the area, change the bandages daily and pad the area to decrease the pressure of weight bearing. If a foreign object has penetrated the foot, it may need to be removed by using a local anesthetic. More severe penetrations may also require antibiotics. Ocean swimming involves the danger of contact with marine animals such as the tentacles of a jellyfish, the back of a stingray or a sea urchin. Even coral has poisonous darts. Again, be proactive (not reactive) by wearing beach shoes. If you are stung, gently irrigate the area with salt water to remove loose tentacles. Do not rub the area. For Portuguese man-of-war you should pour household vinegar over the area to inhibit any further toxin released and continue to irrigate with salt water. The toxins released by sea urchins, stingrays or catfish are heat sensitive and the affected area should be soaked in hot water for 30 minutes. This will also ease the pain. Sunburns affecting the front of the leg and the top of the feet are very common and painful beach injuries. You will notice redness, swelling and possible blister formation. Initially, you should cover the burn area with towels soaked in cool water. Never apply ice to the area as this will further injure the area. If blistering occurs, do not puncture the blister. However, if they break on their own you can use a topical antibiotic cream. Avoid further exposure to the sun until the area has completely healed. Another problem that begins quite innocently is walking or jogging barefooted on the beach. This can lead to an inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament which runs along the bottom of the foot and overextend as the foot always functions best as a lever against a rigid surface. This pain will usually resolve on its own but can certainly spoil a holiday. The best way to enjoy the summer months is to avoid injuries. Remember to wear beach shoes to avoid puncture wounds or stings. Sunscreen of not less than 15 SPF will provide a level of protection all throughout the summer. Summer is too short to waste nursing a foot injury that could have been avoided.

To make the most of your sunscreen, the Canadian Cancer Society recommends the following tips: • Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen for both ultraviolet A and B rays withan SPF 15 or higher. Look for products with the Canadain Dermatology Association's logo and ask a doctor or pharmacist for help choosing the right one. • If you have skin that burns easily and tans poorly, light coloured eyes and foair or red hair, choose a sunscreen with a higher SPF. The more likely you are to burn, the higher the SPF you will need. • Sunscreen should be applied at least 20 minutes before you go out to allow the active ingredients tosoak into your skin. It should be reapplied generously and often (every 2 hours), especially after swimming or sweating. • Don't forget your ears, nose, neck and any bald spots, as these are areas where skin cancers most often occur • Your lips need protection too. Use an SPF 15 sunscreen lip balm and reapply when needed. • Remember to apply sunscreen on cloudy days because the sun's rays are still harmful.

He arrived with 10 other youth on a three-month student exchange leadership program. He remembers being a camp counsellor and visit- ing London, Kitchener and Strat- ford. His youth includes time as a Scout and volunteering for St. John Ambulance when the Common- wealth Games were held in Jamaica in 1962, the same year the country received its independence. More than 40 years later, he is still active as a volunteer with a number of organizations, and is a commu- nity advocate for social change. He is also a staunch supporter of mul- ticulturalism, race relations work, and anti-racism initiatives. In April, Mr. Clarke was elected president of the Multicultural Coun- cil of Oshawa/Durham (MCOD), an active organization possessing a 25- year history of serving the needs of the region’s diverse ethnocultural communities. Mr. Clarke has been a group member of MCOD through his 20-year association with the Ca- nadian Jamaican Club of Oshawa. A firm believer that the MCOD should be the lead organization in the community when it comes to eliminating racism, he says it is a societal issue and it manifests itself in different ways. It can be individ- ual, systemic and institutional, he says, and the anti-racist education work of the MCOD is long-term. His strategy to eliminate racism involves public education, speaking out as an agency, policy development, ed- ucational programs, and involving youth and community stakehold- ers. One of his challenges, he feels, is to get people and organizations involved in MCOD activities. He says he feels racism is an issue for everyone, not just for the police and ethnocultural groups. Another priority is to establish a youth work program, for those at risk in Durham Region. He is pas- sionate about youth leadership and feels strongly that youth should get involved in politics. If they don’t, he cautions, they will be like a “limping man, running a race against trained runners.” Mr. Clarke is proud of the ac- tivities of the MCOD over the last few years, particularly in the area of youth programming, and is quick to acknowledge the work and leader- ship of Richard Davidson his pre- decessor, and the dedication of the entire MCOD organization. A “participatory democracy” ap- proach to decision-making is what the new MCOD president believes in. He wants to hear from everyone, and feels there is “always a greater and lesser person than yourself.” Included on a list of those he ad- mires is Bromley Armstrong, for his commitment to race relations work and human rights. Also for his ‘Tal- lawa’ — a word meaning strong, sturdy and not be underestimated. The list also includes Carmen Ger- mano, a founding member of the MCOD, for her vision, tenacity, work ethic, people skills and dedication to multiculturalism. Sarah McDonald, for her leader- ship and community development skills and anti-racist education ini- tiatives, is also on the list, as is Ted Dionne, a former Durham Regional Police sergeant, and now a diversity lecturer at Durham College. Mr. Clarke is of the opinion that racism is very subtle in Canada, compared to the United States and several European countries where it is much more overt. He contributes this to Canada’s multicultural poli- cies, human rights laws, immigra- tion policies, and the way in which Canadians have accepted multicul- turalism. To him, multiculturalism is a way of life. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JULY 10, 2005 PAGE 11 A/P Carrier of The Week If you did not receive your News Advertiser/flyers OR you are interested in a paper route call Circulation at (905) 683-5117.

Please send it to news editor David Stell at dstell@ durhamregion. com NEWS ADVERTISER Multicultural Durham Staunch supporter of multiculturalism takes helm of Durham group Merle Robillard/ News Advertiser photo Elkanah Clarke is the new president of the Multicultural Council of Oshawa/ Durham. He believes the organization has to be a community leader. I had a very active Canada Day this year. My day started down at Rotary Park in Ajax where, along with my daughter Emily, we took in Canada Day celebrations that were organized by the Town of Ajax’s rec- reation services department. Following opening remarks by local politicians who all reflected on the significance of the day and the 50th anniversary of Ajax — the cele- brations and entertainment started. It was good to see organizers booked a variety of performers dif- fering in age, gender, culture, eth- nicity and artistic disciplines that truly reflected the growing diversity of the town. First up was former Ajax High School student Asha Lapps who sang the national anthem. Children from the Durham Tamil Association were next to perform. Dressed in different national cos- tumes from around the world, they brought greetings to the audience and explained why they like Can- ada. They did this to ‘We are the world, we are the children.’ It was very moving and for me it was one of the highlights of the afternoon. Next up was popular J. Clarke Richardson student, Laura McLin- ton who sang two songs. The finale was the Ajax Home- town Cloggers. They were fantastic, and had the audience singing and dancing. I have it on good authority, for all you baby-boomers, that clog- ging is good therapy for arthritis! We also managed to see part of the citizenship ceremony that wel- comed 60 new Canadian citizens. Next stop: A cruise of the Toron- to Islands, an evening meal and at 10:30 p.m. a spectacular fireworks display courtesy of Ontario Place. I told you it was a very active day! While on the cruise Emily and I had the opportunity to meet and talk to several different groups of people. We befriended a large group of Chinese tourists, who were very polite and insisted on taking our picture several times. There was a group of American tourists who I had a spirited conversation with about China Town, Toronto’s Little India, and Canada’s commitment to multiculturalism. I recall a dis- tinguished looking Sikh gentleman, who was complaining about the curried chicken! During dinner, we sat next to an Indian couple and their teenage daughter visiting Canada for the first time from New Delhi. They were interested in my Anglo-Indian heri- tage — and were generally pleased at the fact I loved Indian sweets. After the fireworks display, on the way back to the dock, Emily and I reflected on our Canada Day activi- ties and exchanged thoughts. Emily liked Canada Day in Ajax, particularly the Canada Day cake and she thought the singing and dancing was very cool. She also thinks Canada is very old. As for the cruise, she enjoyed being on the top deck watching all the boats and she loved the fireworks and food. My reflections on Canada Day are that it was good to see the Town’s diversity showcased and the citizen- ship court ceremony is a great idea. On the cruise, I loved the people, the food, the fireworks, and enjoyed the Sikh gentleman, who, by the way, had words with the chef. Happy birthday Canada.

Matt Crafton - 278 By Monte Dutton NASCAR This Week DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – All things considered, Rusty Wa llace is driving into the sunset with remarkable alacrity. The setting sun hasn’t blinded him. Wa llace, who will turn 49 in August is nickel-and-diming his way into NASCAR’s championship - determining Chase. In a year in which two teams– Hendrick and Roush– are dominating. It’s not so surprising that Wallace hasn’t won. What’s surprising on the one hand, is that he hasn’t finished better than fourth. Despite that fact, he ranks an improbable fifth in the Nextel Cup standings. The Pepsi 400 marked Wa llace’s second fourth-place finish in a row. “I’ve got a lot of positive feelings about Daytona even though I haven’t won,” said Wa llace, who’s won 55 races and one championship. “I’ve had a lot of good runs here and a lot of bad runs, bad runs with some horrifying crashes in the past. The track has been pretty good to me, though.” So far, Wallace has managed to maintain his composure. His so-called “Last Call” – a trademarked synonym for his farewell tour – has been more traditional and less low-key than Martin’s “Salute to You.” A victory, Wallace said, would probably lead him to drop his guard. “I think that will happen more and more, although the only thing that could cover that up is just the intensity of competition right now,” Wallace said. “I’m relentless at wanting to win and relentless at wanting to get in the top 10 in the points. I’m relentless at wanting to go out at the top of my game at a very high level , so right now, I’m on track. Points look good. “ We’re in position right now, no doubt about that. I think a lot of guys who thought they were going to be in position or thought were going to be out, it’s the other way around. There’s a lot of good cars that aren’t in it now. We ’ve got a great car and we’re in it, so I’m liking that part. Being so intense at doing that, that could overshadow some of the sorrow of leaving and going back to some of these tracks for the last time.” After all, a man’s got to dream, even as the curtain starts to fall.

Reminiscent of her fate in the 100-metre hurdles final at the 2004 Olympic Summer Games in Athens, the two-time world champion hit a hurdle — this time the final one — at the Athletissima Grand Prix meet in Lausanne, Switzerland on the week- end. Still, the Pickering Olympian was able to recover enough to get up and continue the race, finishing sixth. American Michelle Perry was the race winner in 12.61 seconds. Last Friday, Felicien finished sec- ond behind Athens Olympic champion and American Joanna Hayes at the Gaz de France meet in St. Denis. Felicien finished sixth-one-hundredth of a second behind Hayes in the final. Hayes won the event in 12.60. Felicien will continue to run at selected competitions in Europe in advance of the 2005 IAAF World Track and Field Championships in Helsinki, Finland from Aug. 6 to 14.

The Ajacians matched up against Hajduk Split from Croatia in the division final. Despite a solid effort by the Ajax squad, the Croatians came out on top 2-1. Shawn-Claud Lawson scored for Primera and was also named the game’s most valu- able player. A total of 27 other teams compet- ed in the boys’ under-12 division in the Robbie International, which raises money annually for cystic fibrosis and muscular dystrophy. The Ajax under-12s advanced to the final after emerging from a pressure-cooker semifinal con- test against the Wexford Heat. The game was knotted at 1-1 at the end of regulation time. After extra time, the contest had to be decided on penalty kicks. Primera won on pen- alty kicks 4-3. Chris Palmer scored for Ajax in regulation time. In the quarter-final versus North Yo rk Hearts Azzurri, Primera post- ed a 1-0 victory on a goal by Ryan Zupancic. In round-robin play, Primera beat Malvern 1-0. Ryan Lyn scored for Ajax. In Game 2, Ajax posted a 1-0 victory over Hajduk Split from Croatia. Brandon Chiu netted the game winner. In their final pre- liminary game, Primera were 4- 0 winners over Newmarket York United. Lawson, Lucas Guerriero, Errol Whittle-McDonald and Lyn notched goals. Other team members are Nicho- las Bruno, Kirk Gonsalves, Aaron Wa lker, Chris Walwyn, Keenan Wil- liams, Adrian Harvey, Nick Stehlin and Kamden Johnson-Holder. Jimmy-Sam Lawson coaches the team, assisted by Orwell Williams. The trainer is Mark Stehlin and the manager is Susan Gonsalves.

Groen/ News Advertiser photo Joan Store watches her drive sail over the fairway while participating in the recent Longest Day of Golf at the Whitevale Golf Club. Joan and husband Bob have taken part in the annual Canadian Cancer Society fundraiser for the past 14 years. Stores help raise cash for cancer through Longest Day of Golf By Al Rivett Sports Editor PICKERING — Despite exhaus- tion from the heat of an extend- ed stay on the links, Joan Store and her foursome were none the worse for wear after completing yet another Longest Day of Golf at the Whitevale Golf Club recently. Starting at 5:15 a.m. and ending at 9:15 p.m. on the course, Store, of Pickering, along with playing partners Whitevale club assistant pro Lee Hummell, Mike Dunkley, of Claremont, and Paul Stephen- son, of Markham, completed the test of endurance for an incredible 14th year of the fundraising event for the Canadian Cancer Society. She admits this year, the 30C heat of the midday sun made the day of golf a little more physically trying. “I was exhausted. I was tired and getting motion sickness. We drank a lot of water. We didn’t have time to find the shade,” she notes. Notwithstanding the hot playing conditions this year, the event has been such a staple at the White- vale club over the years that many members and well-wishers come out to lend their support, as well as hosting a dinner in honour of the golfers. And, this year was no exception, she says. “A piper piped us in to the club- house. At the last hole it was kind of nice. There was quite a crowd gathered around the hole. There was about 150 people there,” Store recalled. For Store and her husband, Bob, who serves as a course marshal for the event, the day is an intensely personal annual golf odyssey. After the death of their grandson, Jeffrey, who lost his battle with brain cancer at age 14, the Stores looked to bring about something positive from an extremely devas- tating situation. They’ve been tak- ing part in the cancer fundraiser — and honouring the memory of their grandson — ever since. “Cancer touches everyone — it touches every one of us some- how,” says Store. “There are a lot of cancer survivors at the golf club. We’ve lost a lot of good people (to cancer) as well.” This year, she and the golf club will raise in excess of $10,800 for cancer research. All told, since the inception of the Longest Day of Golf 14 years ago, more than $117,000 has been raised. She notes she’s been taking part in the event for so long that she doesn’t even have to ask for donations. “They just give it to me,” she says. This year, she explains, the four- some didn’t get in as many holes of golf as in previous years. The heat of the day slowed them down somewhat, only playing eight- and-a-half rounds, whereas nor- mally they play as many as 10. She recalls six or seven years ago, the group played more than 200 holes of golf, finishing the day with 11 rounds and two holes. The Ajax Primera-Ainsworth soccer boys were runners-up at the Robbie.
