Vern White, introduced to the media Thursday morning in Os- hawa, outlined plans for extensive community consultation and co- operation with neighbouring po- lice forces as he takes the reigns of the Durham Regional Police Ser- vice. “My suggestion is there’s no- body we won’t work with,” the new chief said. Chief designate White, 46, as- sumes leadership of the service at a time when a proliferation of guns and violent crime is fore- most on the minds of many res- idents throughout the GTA. Al- though Durham has so far been spared the spike in gun violence evident in Toronto -- there’s been just one murder in Durham this year, a beating death in Oshawa -- many feel it’s just a matter of time until illegal guns and gang activity emerge as prominent issues. Chief designate White, who starts work next Tuesday and will take his oath of office Sept. 12, stressed the importance of con- sultation with educators, social workers, community leaders and other police services in preventing crime. “The challenges faced in this area today aren’t different than they are elsewhere,” he told re- porters. “They’re just at a different level. “All too often, we find ourselves reacting to challenges,” he said. The new chief, a former assis- tant commissioner with the RCMP, was the unanimous choice of Dur- ham’s Police Services Board after an extensive search, said board chair Doug Moffatt. He said the post was applied for by numer- ous candidates from outside and within the service, and that list was pared down to seven who were interviewed for the job. “A t the end of the day we had ✦ See Police, Page 7 PLAYING A DOUBLE HEADER Ron Pietroniro/ News Advertiser photo PICKERING — Pickering’s William Rodrigues, right, and Etobicoke’s Shane Lammie meet in the middle at- tempting to head a ball during play in the recent Ontario Cup semifinal under-17 boys’ contest.

The residential rate for a single-detached home would rise from $3,114 to $3,459, an increase of nine per cent. The commercial rate would increase by more than 12 per cent, from 0.89 cents to 1.00, and then by a further 12 per cent the following year to $1.12 per square foot. The changes are outlined in the recently-released Re- gional Development Charge Background Study. The regional finance and administra- tion commit- tee will consider adopting the study and passing the development charge bylaw at its Sept. 7 meet- ing. On the same day, at regional council, the pub- lic has a chance to comment. The time line would then see regional council finalize the bylaw at its Sept. 28 meeting. Clarington Mayor John Mutton, chairman of the finance and administra- tion committee, expects few deputations on the amended bylaw, which he described as pru- dent. “This is the perfect time to recapture that money,” he said. “The whole goal of development charges is so you don’t have to go to the tax base.” He doubted the higher commer- cial rate would have an impact on new businesses locating here. “The growth is happen- ing no matter what the costs are out here,” said Mayor Mutton. The increases are to pay for the large rise in the cost of the Courtice Water Pol- lution Control Plant and for expanding incineration capacity at the York-Dur- ham Duffins Creek sewage plant. The latter is a $58 million cost not previously included in the 2003 devel- opment charges study. The cost of the Courtice sewage plant, currently budgeted at around $165 million, has increased by $26.7 million since 2003. The Region in 2003 had planned to expand its bio- solids storage facilities at the Corbett Creek WPCP, as at the time it counted on land application to get rid of the sewage plant waste material. As a result of changes to the Nutrient Management Act, however, the Region cannot rely on land application nearly as much. Durham Region is also considering changing the definition of retail use in the bylaw to include self-stor- age mini-warehouses. In other housing catego- ries, the sewage compo- nent of the DC would rise by $285, to $3,459 for each new single-detached house built. The increase would be $239 for low-density multiples, including town- houses, $165 for apartments with two bedrooms or more and $106 for apartments with one bedroom or less.

Attorney General Michael Bryant’s decision may play well at the polls as the majority of voters are frustrated by the number of dog attacks, but only time will tell whether this new act has the teeth to reduce the number of dog attacks. Having pit bulls or any bad-tempered dogs muzzled in public makes sense, but the legislation becomes compli- cated with grandfathered clauses and sterilization require- ments which will make enforcement next to impossible. We all hope that another child won’t be mauled by a pit bull or any dog for that matter, but many attacks occur in the home and there’s nothing in this legislation that will prevent such an attack. There’s no debating there have been too many vicious at- tacks by pit bulls or that they can do a lot more damage than most breeds of dogs. The more the pit bulls’ reputation as a ‘tough dog’ grew, the more attractive they became to a lot of owners who frankly shouldn’t have the right to raise any ani- mal at all. It’s those people who have a pit bull leash in one hand and an appointment with their probation officer in the other who are to blame. But taking a breed of dog away won’t turn these people into law-abiding citizens. If Ontario took all guns off the streets, it wouldn’t stop the criminal element from committing crimes. Instead of a gun they might carry knives, crowbars, etc. So we can fully expect to see the dregs of society pick another ‘tough’ breed to fill the void. Those responsible owners of pit bulls have come out of the wood work with the introduction of the Dog Owners’ Liabil- ity Act and have always been vocal whenever someone in the public or media supports pit bull legislation. But they have equal culpability in all this mess because they have been silent far too long to the growing problem of thugs owning these breeds. While it’s admirable that some sort of action has finally been taken to deal with the pit bull issue, Ontario may find itself pressured to add new breeds to the list. Green bin waste collection won’t work here To the editor: Re: ‘Green bins preparing to expand’, Mike Ruta column, Aug. 19. It is nice to see we are expanding our recycling to green bin waste collection. Although Pickering and Ajax have been col- lecting yard waste for several years, it does not collect from condo/townhome residences separately. I currently live in a 120 unit condo/townhome environ- ment and when I put out my yard waste it is picked up by Miller Waste as normal garbage. I don’t think the green waste will have a chance in my environment. I pay my land taxes just like a single home owner, but am not treated the same. I want to help the environment and look what the city does - makes it worse. Green waste will not survive here. Take a look around, we have a high number of townhome/condos in the area, not including all of the people who live in apartments that could have a chance to be a part of this great opportunity. Condo/townhome owners need to speak up and voice their opinions.

Research for series reveals a new perspective on agricultural industry F arming is tougher than it looks. That’s the impression I came away with in researching and writing a four-part series on the agricultural in- dustry in Ajax and Pickering that begins in the Sunday edition. Fa r mers don’t complain or ask for sympathy, they just share the challenges they face. By raising awareness, the few farmers who remain want to foster a better relationship with the ever ex- panding number of urban neighbours. There are stories of farmers’ fields being used as dumps, a field of alfalfa hay being used for a game of soccer and of course there is the issue of crop theft. Not to mention the hassle traffic and congestion have on rural roads. One farmer jokes that he should take his lunch with him when he goes to his field across the road because it is such a long journey. Many suburbanites look at the acres, upon acres of farmland abutting an urban area and see only dollar signs. They think of how much money that family will make when the inevitable developer comes along wanting to build a subdivision. Through speaking with farmers, it’s clear most farmers don’t want to cash in. They love what they do, it’s who they are. Those who sell are usually forced to because their livelihood is no longer viable because of a shrinking land mass, not to mention the new residents who complain about manure or noise or pesticides. There are those who sell to have a cushy retirement, but they just might deserve it after working from dawn until dusk for 50 years -- it’s unlikely any of us could cut it as a farmer for more than a week. The issues touched on in the series are those articulated by a handful of people. There are, no doubt, much more that could be examined. For example, the issues surrounding Pickering’s Duffins Rouge Agricultural Preserve, as well as the pressing issue of the importance of a locally grown food supply. But don’t let what the series is not, take away from what it is. It is an insight into an industry that has deep roots in Ajax and Pickering. An industry that is struggling with pressures and chal- lenges as the area changes and grows. The next time you’re driving and a tractor gets in your way, don’t get upset, be patient and realize the person in the tractor is trying to make a living. Un- derstanding from the public might help make the final days or years for these local farmers just a little bit easier. Danielle Milley’s column ap- pears every third Friday. E-mail dmilley@durhamregion.com. Local farms face many challenges Danielle Milley staff writer EDITORIALS & OPINIONS infodurhamregion.com seven people ... any one of those people would have made an excel- lent chief,” Mr. Moffatt said. Chief designate White is a 24- year veteran of policing. Much of his career has been spent in the far North, where he served in the three territories. Among his career highlights was his leadership of the investigative team that probed the murders of nine gold miners during a bitter strike in the early 1990s in Yellowknife. During the three-month search for a new top cop -- outgoing Chief Kevin McAlpine announced his retirement in May -- there’s been much speculation about whether the new boss would come from within the ranks of Durham police. In fact, during a press conference in May, Chief McAlpine said he’d taken steps to groom his top brass to assume leadership. “One of my jobs was to make sure senior leaders of this service were exposed to all kinds of chal- lenges,” the chief said in May. The issue of hiring from outside the force has been contentious in the past. Chief McAlpine, who was hired from the Peterborough po- lice service, met with opposition from the rank and file in Durham when he assumed his post in the fall of 1997, and had a sometimes turbulent relationship with his of- ficers. In early 2000 he stared down an uprising among of- ficers that included a non-confi- dence vote and an open call for his resignation. Thursday morning To m Bell, vice-presi- dent of the Durham Regional Po- lice Association, chose his words carefully when asked about the hiring of Chief designate White. “It’s the (police services) board’s decision to make,” Mr. Bell said. “We did feel -- and do feel -- there’s a lot of talent within our own service.” The union’s current contract ex- pires at the end of this year and negotiations on a new deal are ex- pected to begin early in 2006. The main issue for Durham cops will be maintaining wage parity with officers in similar services, Mr. Bell said. Mr. Bell -- who learned of the new chief’s identity at the same time reporters did -- said the union is willing to work with the new boss. “We will extend our hand to the new chief,” he said. “We both have the same (goal), which is the safety of our citizens.” Chief designate White said he’ll work to gain the confidence of rank and file officers. “No matter what I do or say, there will be concerns,” he said. “All I can do over the next few years is prove I’m deserving of being the chief of police.” The new chief’s contract is for a five-year term. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, SEPTEMBER 2, 2005 PAGE 7 A/P Read up online: durhamregion.comDental Care for Adults, Kids and Great Big Babies. • A Full Range of Dental Treatments - Bring the whole family. • Saturday & Evening Appointments - To serve you better. • Flexible Payment Options - Helping you get the treatment you want. • A Relaxing Atmosphere - Virtual vision glasses, stereo headphones to help ensure you have a pleasant visit.

Marty Gobin, 17, and Adam McEwan, 18, say the ban is unconstitutional and an infringement on personal property rights. The pair was recently granted a motion to have the case referred to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. “We figure the quicker we take a stand against this the better,” said Mr. McEwan, who called the ban unrea- sonable and ill-founded. “We’re taking a pro-liberty stance against something which appears to be tyranny.” The pit bull ban requires owners to spay or neuter their dogs by Oct. 28, and for them to be muzzled and leashed in public. Owners can keep their existing dogs as long as they com- ply with these requirements. The sale and importation of pit bulls are also prohibited as of Aug. 29, however pit bull puppies born before Nov. 27 can be kept. Although neither Mr. Gobin nor Mr. McEwan own a pit bull, they say a breed-specific ban provincially doesn’t make sense. Fines of up to $10,000, in addition to jail sentences of up to six months, will also be given to owners of any danger- ous dog that bites, attacks or poses a threat. Ontario Attorney General Mi- chael Bryant, in introducing the new bill last October, said the provincial government is responding to concerns of Ontarians by protecting people from “these highly unpredictable dogs.” Sylvie Koch, supervisor of Pickering- Ajax-Whitby Animal Services, said the new legislation may be an automatic death sentence for some pit bulls be- cause they are so hard to adopt out. “I can’t see us adopting them out because they do have to be neutered and spayed, and because there’s such a stigma attached to owning a pit bull; they’re just not adoptable animals,” she said. She added that leaves only one alternative: “Putting them down.” Although pounds and humane so- cieties can still adopt out the animals under the ban, some agencies say the new legislation will mean more aban- doned pit bulls by owners who can’t af- ford to pay to spay or neuter their pets. “They’re going to be dumping them because they can’t afford to,” said Ruby Richards, manager of the Humane So- ciety of Durham Region. “The ones that are abused, neglected, abandoned -- we’re just going to end up with more of that now.” Ms. Richards said the humane soci- ety’s mandate is not to kill, except in cases of extreme aggression or terminal illness. The new ban, however, may force it to compromise that rule. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, SEPTEMBER 2, 2005 PAGE 9 A/P CONSEIL SCOLAIRE DE DISTRICT CATHOLIQUE CENTRE-SUD FAMILLE D’ÉCOLES SAINT-CHARLES-GARNIER Écoles de la région de Durham et de Peterborough L’école catholique de langue française... j’y crois! • Service de garde* • Maternelle et jardin à temps plein • Bilinguisme assuré • L’enseignement des valeurs catholiques • 12 000 élèves - 48 écoles Inscrivez votre enfant en ligne au www.csdccs.edu.on.ca Cliquer sur la rubrique « INSCRIPTIONS » ou appeler au 1.800.274.3764 WHITBY ÉCOLE SECONDAIRE CATHOLIQUE SAINT-CHARLES-GARNIER 4101, RUE BALDWIN SUD WHITBY ON L1R 2W6 3 905.655.5635 OU 1.800.464.1236 ÉCOLE ÉLÉMENTAIRE CATHOLIQUE JEAN-PAUL II 1001, AVENUE HUTCHISON WHITBY ON L2N 2A3 3 905.665.5393 PETERBOROUGH ÉCOLE ÉLÉMENTAIRE CATHOLIQUE MONSEIGNEUR-JAMOT* 186, RUE ROMAINE PETERBOROUGH ON K9J 2C4 3 705.742.7571 OSHAWA ÉCOLE ÉLÉMENTAIRE CATHOLIQUE CORPUS-CHRISTI* 362, AVENUE HILLSIDE OSHAWA ON L1J 6L7 3 905.728.0491 AJAX ÉCOLE ÉLÉMENTAIRE CATHOLIQUE NOTRE-DAME-DE-LA-JEUNESSE* 71, AVENUE RITCHIE AJAX ON L1S 6S5 3 905.428.1460 From now to the end of September 2005, many of the services provided by the Region of Durham will begin operating out of the new Regional Municipality of Durham Headquarters located at 605 Rossland Road East, in Whitby (south west corner of Rossland Road and Garden Street).

Sept. 10, 10-4 Bay Oshawa - Upper Mall Entrance Battle on to reduce dropout rates Re-evaluating curriculum one avenue: union head By Crystal Crimi Staff Writer DURHAM — Reducing curriculum expectations could help lower dropout rates, said a local teachers’ union presi- dent. During a recent address to more than 500 teachers attending the Elemen- tary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario’s (ETFO) annual meeting, Education Minister Gerard Kennedy vowed to re- duce the province’s 32 per cent dropout rate in 2003-04. He challenged teach- ers to each assist one more struggling student under age 12 so they are helped before reaching high school, when it may be too late. “It’s about getting that intervention at an early age before they get to high school,” said Rachel Gencey, Durham’s ETFO president. She said students in early grades may not be able to recognize letters they should, such as those in their name. “I can remember the year I taught Grade 1, there was a student you could already tell had issues,” she said. “It’s not always a learning disability, sometimes it’s a matter of what they’re exposed to and what they’re not.” When kids start school behind their peers and don’t get help, they can fall further behind, she said. By the time they get to high school, they may be frustrated and bored and drop out. Te achers will work toward the chal- lenge to help more struggling youths, but there are concerns over the amount of time to do so, said Ms. Gencey. She said one of the comments Mr. Kennedy made, was if the Province is asking for teachers to do more, it would take more off their plate in return. She said some things that could free up teacher time are more specialist teachers and lower curriculum expecta- tions so there’s less to get through each year. “It’s been almost 10 years since that curriculum was in place,” she said. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, SEPTEMBER 2, 2005 PAGE 11 A/P Soon-to-be Grade 9 students learn the ropes ahead of time By Crystal Crimi Staff Writer DURHAM — With new faces, crowded and large hallways, and rumours of hard work, high school can be an intimating experience for first-timers. To ease the transition from el- ementary to high school, Durham Continuing Education recently offered soon-to-be minor niners a ‘Getting Ready for High School Program’. “High school’s very different than elementary school,” said teacher Janice Moy to a group of mostly quiet students spending a summer Monday at Donevan CI in Oshawa. Open to all Catholic and public students, the free five-day course offered kids a chance to see the curriculum and meet some of the new faces that await them. Danielle Andrus was visibly anx- ious as she sat near the front of the class decorated with diagrams, maps and posters. Danielle ap- peared to listen attentively while the teacher spoke. In the hallway during break time, Danielle admitted she’s nervous about high school. “Yeah a little,” she said. “Just to meet new people, new teachers.” Along with being intimidated by the physical size of her new school, she’s also nervous about the work- load she’s heard it includes. “I’m not really good at some sub- jects and I might need to lower my level,” said Danielle. “I’m just wor- ried about how hard it’s going to be.” In class, Mrs. Moy discussed sub- jects they’ll have to take -- math, English, science, French, geogra- phy, history, art, and phys-ed. She also explained what high school credits are, semester and non-se- mester classes, and provided tips for success. “Course outline: important piece of paper,” said Mrs. Moy. “It’s prob- ably the first piece of paper that should be hole punched and put in your binder.” She said it will tell students the requirements of the program, ma- terials, and any fees associated. “It’s challenging I’d say, but if you’re all really organized, you’ll do well I’m sure,” said Mrs. Moy. Materials she suggested in- cluded three-ring binders, hole- punched paper, a pen and pencil, eraser, ruler, calculator, and pencil crayons. She said students also need reli- able classmates from each subject to pick up homework assignments and fill them in when they’ve missed class. “You’re going to have to get to know a whole lot of people,” said Mrs. Moy. Along with discussing how to ask for help, learning techniques and literacy tests, Mrs. Moy also answered questions. “Do they do surprised tests?” asked a student. “Pop quizzes? They might,” an- swered Mrs. Moy. “That depends on your teacher, but you get to know the people. Another student asked if they would get agendas, to which Mrs. Moy said they would. “And I do suggest you use it,” said Mrs. Moy. A boy was curious if the rumours about initiation day and getting picked on during the first week of high school are true. “I wouldn’t be worried about it,” said Mrs. Moy, adding she doesn’t think it happens. One student said they were afraid of get- ting lost. “It’s OK be- cause every- one gets lost on the first day,” said Mrs. Moy. “You’ll get used to where you are,” she added. “It’s like any new place.” Near the end of her first day in preparation class, Danielle said some of her jitters were gone. “It makes me feel a lot relieved,” she said. “I’ll have a head start on time management and math.” School starts Tuesday, Sept. 6.

Intended to create a plan to keep Canada competitive in the global economy, the sum- mit, headed by Ontario Premier Dalton Mc- Guinty and Quebec Premier Jean Charest, will discuss the challenges of post-secondary edu- cation with stakeholders, including students, colleges, universities and businesses, and seek more funding from the federal government. For students, the biggest post-secondary school challenge is cost, said Thomas Cough- lan, president of the University of Ontario In- stitute of Technology and Durham College stu- dent association. “Students are going into debt beyond their control and beyond recovering from it even when you’re done,” said Mr. Coughlan. From the summit, he’d like to see anything to help students financially, such as controlled tu- ition costs and more subsidies instead of loans. Gary Polonsky, president of UOIT and Durham College, hopes it brings more money. “I know it sounds crass but that’s the only way to serve Canadian youth with top faculty, top equipment, reasonable class sizes, etc,” said Mr. Polonsky in an e-mail. He said the biggest issue in post-secondary education is keeping Canada a leading and developed nation. “Will our children and grandchildren have the opportunity to create and enjoy the life- style my generation took for granted, because of our grandparents’ and parents’ vision and values?” Mr. Polonsky continued. “Since the world economy is being driven by knowledge, how we create and disseminate knowledge will answer that question. That boils down to how we prioritize and invest in education.” Mr. Charest has called for the federal govern- ment to increase post-secondary funding to 1995 levels -- $2.2 billion more than today.

The logic is simple enough, but for those put- ting pen to paper for the first time or facing the dreaded rejection slip, it can be a daunting title to embrace. “People think they can only call themselves writers if they’ve been published or if they’re professional writ- ers,” says Annette McLeod. “But anyone who writes is a writer -- especially if they get rejection slips. We see them as a badge of honour, because it means you’re ac- tually getting your work out there.” A writer and editor with a daily newspaper, Ms. McLeod is also past-president of the Writers’ Circle of Durham Region (WCDR), and says the local collective has given many budding scribes the confidence to chase their liter- ary dreams. “The group is a nice counterpoint to the secluded act of writ- ing,” says member Barbara Hunt. “We’re there to en- courage each other. Writing can be a competitive, stress- ful industry, so it’s good to have support. From journalists, editors and speech writers, to poets, novelists and playwrights, the WCDR currently boasts a dizzying array of expertise spread out over 250 members of all ages and back- grounds. In addi- tion to support- ing small grass roots writing circles that focus on specialties like children’s writing and memoirs, the circle publishes a regular newsletter called Word Weaver and holds monthly breakfast meet- ings that have featured guest speakers like Moira Dann of the Globe and Mail, and ac- claimed author Betty Jane Wylie. The group also or- ganizes the annual Words in Whitby celebration and offers workshops hosted by outside professionals and members. “A ny member who wants to host a workshop can, so we get all kinds of topics -- short story writing, copy ed- iting, even sensual writing,” says WCDR president Sherry Hinman. “All the members have their own unique tal- ents and skills to share.” One of the new events planned for this fall is called “Would You Turn the Page” and will feature a profes- sional literary agent and book editor critiquing the first pages of submitted manuscripts. “I was really nervous when I submitted my work for this, but these are the kinds of things that help take away your fear and build confi- dence,” says WCDR member Kevin Craig. “It’s the kind of thing you have to learn to do.” For more information about the WCDR and its up- coming events, visit www. wcdr.org.

The 18-year-old was never far from a rugby field all summer as he played the rough-and-tumble game upwards of six times a week on several teams, including the Ajax Wanderers RFC under-18s and men’s first team. “It keeps me occupied,” says Moonlight, a Dunbarton High School graduate. “I get bored pret- ty easily. It’s hard on my body, but I like it -- it’s great.” The highlight of Moonlight’s summer, however, was represent- ing Ontario as part of the prov- ince’s under-18 rugby team at the Canada Summer Games — the largest sporting event in the na- tion — in Regina recently. Play- ing as a flanker, Moonlight helped Ontario to a silver medal. Although he and his Ontario mates were gunning for gold, he’s more than satisfied with a silver, playing a tough B.C. side in the Canada Games final. The differ- ence in the gold-medal contest, says Moonlight, was two key team- mates who received red and yel- low cards from the officials, thus leaving Ontario shorthanded. The result was a predictable 28-11 loss to the west coasters. Moonlight notes the Games were highly competitive in rugby, the best level of play he’s ever ex- perienced in his age group. “It was amazing, compared to what I’m used to. The game was quicker and harder hitting. There was a lot less time to think and a lot more action on your feet,” he explained. Aside from being good rugby ambassadors for Ontario, Moon- light says the Games gave him and his teammates a chance to meet a lot of people from other provinces and territories. He also toiled as a mainstay with the Wanderers boys’ under- 18 team that enjoyed a strong sea- son on the field. They’re goal of winning a provincial title, how- ever, was dashed after a recent 6-3 overtime loss to the Alliston Timberwolves in the Toronto Rugby Union (TRU) semifinal playdowns. “We should have won,” says Moonlight of the loss. “We had many chances (to score), we just couldn’t capitalize. We had beaten them earlier in the season.” As for the Wanderers men’s team, Moonlight admits the team has struggled mightily, losing six consecutive games at one point in the season, while competing in the TRU this summer. But, he’s grateful for the chance to play with and against better and more expe- rienced players, which definitely helped him achieve a spot on the provincial under-18 squad. “It got me used to the size of the players, who are also quicker than the under-18 team,” he explains. In addition to playing club rugby, Moonlight was also a standout player for the Dunbar- ton Spartans rugby teams over his four years at the Pickering school. Playing under longtime coaches Hugh Mowbray and Bill Dalliday this past season, Moonlight was the recipient of the most valu- able player award for the team, received the coaches’ award and was also named the overall senior male athlete of the year at the school. “We had a great high school team. We should have made it to OFSAA (Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations), but it didn’t go the way we wanted it to go.” Next season, Moonlight prom- ises to be back on the rugby field, this time as a member of the Wil- frid Laurier University Golden Hawks of Waterloo men’s team. He plans to study philosophy at the school. Jason Liebregts/ News Advertiser photo John Moonlight was on a rugby field much of this summer, playing with the provincial under-18 team, as well as with the Ajax Wanderers’ junior squad and for the men’s first team. As a provincial player, the 18-year-old flanker helped Ontario earn a silver medal at the Canada Summer Games in Regina. Four Ajax baseball teams play for OBA titles Town hosts major peewee championship during long weekend AJAX — Four Ajax Spartans minor baseball teams are compet- ing for diamond glory at the Ontario Baseball Association (OBA) cham- pionships throughout the province during the Labour Day long week- end. The Spartans also play host to an OBA championship tournament at the major peewee level at the Ajax Sportsplex diamonds. Games com- mence Friday night and continue through Sunday. The Ajax Spartans major pee- wees, coached by Greg Beckett, will attempt to have the OBA champi- onship trophy stay in Ajax again this season. The Ajax major peewees gained entrance to the tournament by virtue of a host city bye. The OBA major peewee ‘AAA’ championship begins Friday with all eight teams in action at the Sport- splex. The Pickering Red Sox play the Windsor Expos on diamond 1 at 6:15 p.m. while, at diamond 2, the Mississauga North Tigers play the Newmarket Hawks, also at 6:15 p.m. The late games, which start at 8:30 p.m. under the lights, pits the host Ajax Spartans against the London Badgers on diamond 1. Meanwhile, on diamond 2, the Waterloo Tigers play Toronto Playgrounds. Games will be played on Saturday at noon and 5 p.m. with the final game slated for Sunday at either 1 p.m. or 4 p.m., as the tournament uses a double-knockout format. Meanwhile, the Spartans minor bantam tier 1 team, coached by Frank Arruda, is the defending OBA champions for the age group and will travel to Brantford looking to defend its provincial title. The Spartans major bantam tier 1 team, coached by Bill Boston, earned back-to-back provincial championships with wins in 2003 and 2004. The squad will repre- sent the Eastern Ontario Baseball Association (EOBA) at the OBA playdowns in Etobicoke, searching for its third consecutive provincial championship. The Ajax Spartans major bantam tier II team, coached by Mat La- Foret, will travel to Sault Ste. Marie for a shot at earning a first Ontario title. AJAX — An overwhelming com- munity showing of support enabled a minor soccer team to raise more than $5,800 to help a teammate stricken with cancer. The day of soccer, dubbed the ‘Friends of Vanessa 4 v 4’ fundrais- er was hosted by the Ajax United Magic 93 girls’ rep soccer team at the Pickering High School fields Sunday. The event raised $5,856.75 and will be turned over to the fam- ily of Vanessa Morra, recently diag- nosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a form of cancer that has affected her lungs. The money was raised with the help of local sponsors, The Main Event Fun Games, Baking At Its Best, Pizza Pizza, The Soccer Connection and Ajax Predators and through monies raised at registration, food sales, a jumping castle, sno cone sales and individual donations. All told, 136 players on 17 teams participated in the 4-on-4 tourna- ment. Teams were from the Ajax United Magic, Ajax Thunder, Ajax Predators, Scarborough United, Richmond Hill Raiders, North To- ronto Nitros, Pickering Power, Whitby Golden Eagles and Oshawa Kicks. Te ams were divided into two divi- sions based on their leagues in the Central Girls’ Soccer League. The Premier (Juventus) Division was won by Richmond Hill 1, while the Division 1 (Roma) Division was won by Richmond Hill 2. The Ajax United Magic also point- ed to the support of Ajax Mayor Steve Parish’s office for arranging for the venue for the fundraiser.

Quarterbacks Jeff McIlravey and Mike Stobbart shredded the Ti-Cats defence, thanks to a strong ground game supplied by running backs Cole Tudor, Shaq Law- rence, Denver Wright, Keldyn Ahlstedt, Ku rlan Cadet and Domonick Lloyd. Not to be outdone, offensive linemen Nathan Cheung, Bryan Derksen, Rae Grant, Michael Belcastro, Garrett Mole and Marco Mertsis were the offensive stars as they created holes and held back the Clarington defence. Tudor, Cadet and Lawrence each ran for two touchdowns; Wright recorded one major. All told, the Dolphins offence racked up 325 yards on 30 carries, with Tudor and Lawrence contributing more than 100 yards apiece. Special teams did a solid job with kick- er Roynelle Meredith scoring on three points-after-touchdowns, for six points. The Dolphins’ defence allowed only 69 yards against and only three first downs. Defensive lineman Kevin Iyamu led the day on tackles with four. Lineback- ers Jaiden McBride, Kiefer Smith-Gho and Keldyn Ahlstedt had three tackles apiece. The entire Dolphins defensive line earned stars-of-the-game honours. No scores were reported from the Dol- phins’ tyke and peewee games against the Ti-Cats. All three Dolphins’ teams return to ac- tion on Monday, Sept. 5 when they host the Markham Raiders at Kinsmen Park in Pickering.
