"'Milk
Cartons"
1915 United
Campaign
Pint-sized "milk carton" -
type containers will be used
in the Ajax -Pickering area
for the first time this year to
help collect funds in the
Residential Canvass of the
1975 United Way Campaign.
Bill McLean, 1975 Cam-
paign Chairman of the Ajax -
Pickering Community Fund,
announced that the con-
tainers will be delivered to
householders in this area at
the beginning of the cam-
paign in October and will be
picked up again during the
f imt week of November. The
idea is that householders are
requested to put their loose
change into these "piggy
banks" over a period of
about four weeks. The
containers will then be
picked up again by volun-
teers of the residential
canvass. taken to the can-
vass headquarters where the
contents will be counted and
registered.
If a receipt for the donation
is requested, all the
househaider has to do is to
put a slip of paper with his or
her na me and address into
the container, and an official
receipt for tax purposes will
he mailed out.
Harry T. Cook, this year's
Residential Canvass
Chairman. says the con-
tainers have been used
successfully by other
Community Funds across
Canada. The "milk cartons"
will be used only in the
densely populated southern
parts of this area while
conventional canvassing
methods will be applied
north of the Third Con-
cession. Some of the con-
tainers may also be used in
the Commercial Canvass
headed this year by Bob
Mason. In that case they will
be set up on counters in
small stores. if for some
reason the container could
not be picked up at the end of
the canvass, for instance, if
the householder was not at
home at pick-up time, the
householder can phone the
Community Fund at 839-1004
for a special pick-up. That
number is a iso printed on the
shoulders of the container.
As Bill McLean points out,
there is no reason for con-
cern that the coin boxes will
be picked up by some
"phoney collectors". All
volunteers authorized topick
up the "milk cartons" will
carry and show iden-
tification cards issued by the
Ajax -Pickering Community
Fund.

Deferred On
Right-of-way
Following a petition from
area residents, a lease
agreement covering the
right-of-way running from
Rosebank Road to Old
Forest Road has been
deferred by Council. Before
the matter is again brought
to Council, Councillors will
have the opportunity of
examining the right-of-way
and the Director of Public
Works has been asked to
report on costs involved in
putting the 429 foot pathway
Into shape'.
Mr. William Garnett, of
1444 Old Forest Road this
week told Council that the
Municipal -owned strip of
land has, for many years,
been used by children and
adults as a means of crossing
from the valley area to
Rosebank Road.
In presenting arguments
for leaving this land as a free
access to the people, Mr.
Garnett said that he had
forwarded a petition, signed
by 51 residents indicating
that 106 children use the
pathway as a means of
getting to the school bus, or
to school. Should the path-
way be closed. Mr. Garnett
saik two alternatives would
be available to these
children. "Firstly, they
could walk north to Sheppard
Avenue at Old Forest Road.
In some cases this would
increase their walking
distance by as much as 200
percent. When they reach
Sheppard they are forced to
cross in an area of a 35mph
zone. 70 feet below the brow
of a hill which is continually
used by heavy trucks and
constant car traffic. This is
a T. intersection which is
hidden from view from
'A(—, Wound traffic by the hill
i nd there is no sign on
Sheppard indicating hidden
ruersection or that there is
-chool bus stop ahead."
?:•cording to Mr. Garnett,
'econd choice would be

t; isebank Road and Old
r"st Road. The T. junc-
,n at this point is com-
ixated by an exit from the
: -r,ebank Plaza which is
Lied as a breakfast stop by
large trucks."
Mr. Garnett said that the
speed limit at this location is
ambiguous. The first sign,
approximately 100 feet north
on Rosebank Road, reads 30
mph Begins, but the Bus stop
is only 70 feet from Highway
x2.
Schools and School Bus
Operators have been in-
formed that the right-of-way
is to be closed, but Mr.
Garnett said that the Bus -
stop at the easement "offers
a clear view of the roadway
to the children for crossing
at a flat. level area, where
they can use the rules of the
road as taught in the
schools. "
In concluding his petition,
Mr. Garnett called upon
Council to consider the
safety of the children, and to

Permits
Deferred
The Metro Toronto and
Region Conservation
Authority fMTRCA► has
once again requested
Pickering to issue demolition
permits for 527 and 531 Rodd
Avenue. Both of these houses
belong to the MTRCA and
have been standing vacant
for some time.
Rosebank residents have
been asking that these
houses should not be
demolished, and that they
should be rented until the
need for the land on which
they stand has been proven.
However, the Authority
claims that each house
would require up to $8,000 of
repairs before they could be
rented. Each house has been
subjected to vandalism in
the time that it has stood
vacant.
Mr. R. L. Holder of Craft -co
has also made an application
to move the two homes to
alternate sites, thus avoiding
the recd to de mol ish them
while providing much
needed housing in another
area.
Both issues have been
deferred pending input from
the Durham Regional Social
Services Department which
is currently investigating the
possibility of using these
homes for needy families.
The Durham Regional Social
Services Committee is
holding a meeting this week,
and a report from them on
the Rosebank issue is ex-
pected to be forthcoming.
Meanwhile, the MTRCA
last month endorsed plans to
build a new GO station at the
northern boundary of the
Pettycoat Creek Con-
servation Area. It is intended
that this Station should make
the park more accessible to
people coming from Metro.
At present, the GO -Transit
system terminates at Bay
Ridges, and the Dia" -bus
system is used from there to
the Park.

Opinion
Election
Prediction
Those Ontario citizens who like election drama are going to
have a lot of fun on Thurs. Sept. 18th. We predict that the
- results will be very close, and we feel that the next govern-
ment will he probably a minority government.
But its going to he a nightmare for the candidates. Their
fingernails and nerves will be in shreds before the evening is
out.
We had thought that the Nixon -Davis TV debate would have
decided a large number of votes. But it seems to have left
many uncommitted voters still in a mood of indecision.
This election would seem to boil down to just how many
"anti -Davis" votes are on the loose.
Stephen Lewis has made much headway with the voters
through his reasoned arguments and effective speech-
-making. But in the final analysis voters probably are going to
recognize that an NDP vote will not elect an NDP govern-
ment but will help elect one of the other two parties, perhaps
the one the voter doesn't really want.
So. if this is the voter inspiration and if the public is strongly
fora change of government, it would seem that Robert Nixon
and his Liberals will form the next Ontario government. But
this outcome doesn't seem too clear at the time of writing, so
it could be a Conservative government cut back in the
number of seats in the legislature.
Unlike previous Ontario elections, no groundswell of public
opinion can be detected. and the vote result is decidedly
unknown.
Applause
To The Editor
i wish to applaud !Mayor Paul Cosgrove's request for the
Provincial Government to establish a Royal Commission to
publicly investigate the general question of the location of the
Airport. as well as investigate the impact of the North
Pickering Project on the Borough of Scarborough and on
Metropolitan Toronto.
.mac Alderman for Ward 12, which is adjacent to both of these
projects. I find it most frustrating to deal with these two
items. Should these projects barrel ahead full steam. Ward
12 will turn into one massive transportation corridor ser -
%icing both the Airport and the new community of Cedar -
wood.
1lost of the residents of Ward 12. do trot appear to be con-
cerned on this item. but 1 feel it is because they are not yet
affected However. when the East Metro Freeway adjoins
the 401 highway cutting between Malvern and the Zoo. and
when Finch Avenue Ls extended easterly through the far-
mland becoming a major highway, and the H E.P.C. line
north of Bnmley Forest has light rail transit on it. Ward 12
residents will ask. *,Whv didn't some one tell me".
Mayor Paul Cosgrove has focused on the key decision of this
cent ury for Scarborough. 1 not only applaud his foresight.
but I encourage both the Federal and Provincial levels of
Government to accede to his request. It will be one of the
mast important decisions made in the history of both Scar-
horough and Metropolitan Toronto.

5 Million Voters
The machinery is in place for more than five million
qualified voters to cast their ballot in Ontario's 30th general
elect ion.
Polling lists are being completed and distributed for use
during the advance polls on September 12th. 13th and 15th,
and on election day. September 18th.
A work force of about 40.000 has been employed as deputy
returning officers, poll clerks and other personnel required
for efficient election administration by Returning Officers in
125 electoral districts.
They are working with millions of forms and other
necessary documents distributed from the Ontario Election
Office in Toronto.
The -reverse print" ballot design introduced in the 1971
general election is being used again for this election.
Prior to 1971, ballots were mostly white with black printing,
enabling a voter to mark an "x" in places other than a circle
opposite a candidate's name.
To reduce the number of spoiled ballots, the ballots are now
entirely black except for candidate's names, numbered
Consecutively in alphabetical order by surname, and a circle
opposite each name - all in white. Thus, there's no question
of where the ba llotshould be marked: in the white circle.
No more than one circle may contain a mark to indicate a
voter's choice. A ballot with the word "yes" in one circle and
"no" in another would be considered spoiled.
Candidates' party affiliation does not appear on ballots used
in Ontario elections.

Good Example
The fine example shown by Montreal policemen in their pre-
strike activities last week reveals the absolute stupidity of
allowing key functions such as police. fire to have strike
act ion.
Imagine in Metro Toronto having our police officers rising
taxpayers' paid cruisers and on taxpayer -paid time
.creaming en masse up and down the roadways to show their
displeasure
If such an event ever took place here, we believe the public
would expect the police chief and/or commission to suspend
immediately any one involved in such an idiotic display.
The reason for the Montreal police strike is they want pay
equal to Metro Toronto. Isn't that amusing' Our police get
better raises in pay without strikes' However , the cost of
living in Montreal, especially in housing, is much less than in
Toronto'

Lock Up Guilty
lkar Editor:
The Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police is demanding
-'a tightening up of the Bail Reform Act under which con-
victed murderers have been released pending trial."
Countless law-abiding citizens in the C.S. are forced to lock
themselves in at night and this situation could develop in
Canada unless the trend to permissive criminality is
reversed.
Surely. the guilty should be locked up so the innocent can
calk the streets in safety.

Average Home

The Canadian Housing industry is the most efficient
business enterprise in the country, according to Walter
Frank of W. Frank Real Estate Limited.
"Inspite of the fact that combined costs of construction and
serviced land have increased 50 percent in the last two years,
prices of new homes and raw land in this period have
generally stabilized." Mr. Frank said. "In fact in the
Province of Ontario, with the speculative element removed
from the market for new houses, prices in some instances
have declined from peak levels by an average of 5 per cent
and in the SI M M1(1 range as much as 10 percent," Mr. Frank
added.
"The consumer price index which measures the rate of
inflation in the overall cost of living in Canada (1971 equals
1001 advanced 41.2 percent since 1971.
"in the last year the new housing price index (1971 equals
100 ) for Toronto actually declined. The selling prices of new
houses constructed by large builders in the Toronto area
dropped 6.4 percent froma year ago. Residential real estate
sale!, volume across the Province of Ontario is also down 40
pi•rcent from the record 1973 pace while the volume of
listings for sale in the first half of 1975 was up by the same
amount." Mr. Frank revealed. This means that vendors
should be more realistic in pricing their properties for sale he
suggested.
Very Poor
The current advertising campaign of the Civil Service
Association of Ontario surely must be considered by any
reasonable person a poor attempt to get certain "rights" for
the provincial civil servants.
The radio ads say that the Davis government is forbidding
them their normal rights as citizens to fully participate in the
election. This statement is incorrect, of course -- it wasn't the
Davis government - the civil servants have never had the
right to involvement in a provincial election.
While someone listening to these radio dramas complete
with sound effects could be le d to hel ievethat civil servants
should he unrestricted in elections, we suggest the following -
reasons w•hy provincial employees shouldn't be active in an
election of provincial representatives.
Away back in our histroy, civil servants didn't have security
because they were allowed to show their political biases. In
fact. after every election thousands would lose their jobs if
the wrong party won. So to stop the partisanship of the civil
service and to protect them from political abuse, we formed
the civil service commission for hiring and firing and meant
to be divorced from the political process.
if civil servants were allowed to participate, the political
party in power would tend to use the services of their
adherents who work for the government. First, it would be a
simple sign on the lawn at election time. Then the invitation
to join the political party and do campaigning. Come the
next election and all of those civil servant party members
could easily convert from a highways truck driver to a sign
worker - even in publicly - paid times.
Then when the workers' party got into power, he could be
promoted on the basis of his value as a party worker'
No way' it is absolutely essential, in our opinion, that civil
servants not be allowed to campaign at elections. As citizens
they have the right to vote secretly. No one knows how our
civil servants vote just now. If we are to keep our govern-
ment functioning impartially, the civil servants must be
restricted from this activity.
And after all, its better for the worker. Imagine a civil
servant being Liberal and having the Conservative depart-
ment minister trying to get unbiased work from the em-
ployee during election time' Or a New Democrat party
member civil servant feeding confidential reports to his
party in the opposition' A government must rely on some
phase to be reliable and non-political - and that is our civil
service group.
But there is nothing to stop a provincial civil servant
campaigning in a muniepai or federal election, is there!
Is It Labour Or Corporations.?
The Canadian Chamber of Commerce has taken issue with
some statistics on labour income and corporate profits which
appeared in a recent Canadian Press report of a speech by
Shirlev Carr, Executive Vice -President of the Canadian
Labour Congress.
The Canadian Press story attributed to Mrs. Carr the
statement that the federal government was acting
irresponsibly in placing the blame for inflation on high wage
settlements, and had remained silent in recent years while
company profits were high.
according to the Canadian Press story. Mrs. Carr said the
percentage of national income going to wages and salaries
had dropped from 72.9% in 1971 to 70.5% in 1974, while the
percentage of national income going to corporate profits had
risen from 12.3% in 1971 to 17% in 1974.
S. F. Hughes, Executive Director of the Canadian Chamber
of Commerce. said these statistics are misleading. The ac-
tual trend, he said, has been just the opposite to what these
statistics would indicate.
in the period 1947-1974, said Mr. Hughes, the real average
annual rate of return to business owners was only 6.2%. Over
the last thirteen years of thatperiod. the rate was even lower
- only 2.63%.
The labour force, on the other hand• has done very well in
the post-war period. Real wages per hour have doubled; the
average work week has been reduced. and fringe benefits
and working conditions have been improved.
The fallacy in the statistics attributed to Mrs. Carr, said Mr.
Hughes, lies in picking just two convenient points on the
curve and ignoring the developing trends. For one thing, the
year 1974 was very un -typical for business, in that the
business climate that year involved a great deal of
liquidation of inventories, and as a result, profits which
would have been earned in other years developed in the 1974
figures. The reduced figures for 1975 are confirming that the
1974 earnings were inflated. The only fair way to compare,
said Mr. Hughes, is to take the whole curve and compare the
trends. Such a comparison, he said, shows clearly that the
increases in labour income have been outstripping the gains
in business profits by a wide margin.

built vehicle or option we set.
2 Cash in on the 5°/lr rebate of Ontario sales tax before it expires on December
31st.
3. We need your trade to keep our reconditioning staff busy this fall so we vA

TODAY'S HEALTH
Alcohol abuse costs
taxpayers millions
by David Woods
The facts about alcohol-related
illness in Ontario are pretty sober-
ing in themselves. They don't need
to be dramatized by any old-
fashioned hellfire preaching.
To start with, alcohol is ex-
tremely expensive, but relatively
speaking it is not expensive to buy.
For although some would argue
that $7.00 for a bottle of spirits is
pretty steep, the true cost of
"booze" has actually declined as a
percentage of disposable income
over the past couple of decades.
No. the really staggering costs of
alcohol can be seen in our health
care bill.
As Ontario's Minister of Health.
Frank Miller. put it in a speech
recently: "The Ontario taxpayer
forked out S89 million through
general public hospitals in 1971 for
illnesses related to alcohol ... that.
plus another $17 million through
the mental hospital system: about
$9 million through the Family
Benefits Act. and more than $1 I
million through Children's Aid
Societies. for alcohol-related
problems."
Those are some of the visible
costs. 1t you add to them physi-
cians' fees. the fact that alcohol
plays a part in half of all traffic
accidents in Ontario. and the enor-
mous losses to industry of alcohol-
related absenteeism, the price we're
paying for alcohol -is truly astro-
nomical.
On the issue of productivity
or the lack of it — alone, the
Addiction Research Foundation es-
timates that 14 million person
hours are lost each year in Ontario
because of alcohol. Even if you
total that up at the minimum hourly
wage, it would add up to a large
amount.
But behind all those dollar fig-
ures there are some disturbing
personal statistics. in Ontario to-
day. close to 300.000 people drink
enough alcohol to endanger their
health. Of these, more than 145,000
have reached a stage of alcoholic
illness.
The solution isn't to ban "booze"
or to tax it out of reach of the
average person: rather it is simply
to emphasize that alcohol is a
chemical that. if it is not used sen-
sibly and in moderation, can very
easily become addictive and harm-
ful. The step between regular or
heavy social drinking and total
dependence really isn't very great.
As the Ministry of Health's re-
cently -introduced alcohol informa-
tion program points out: "Mix a
little thinking with your drinking.
Ask yourself why you drink, when,
how much — and on how many
more occasions than you did, say,
a year ago. That way. you may be
able to head off a very costly
problem.

Mrs. Torniczek was along to

The Toronto photographer
admitted that shooting pictures
in Freeport was a distinct plea-

destinations available to the
traveller, picture taking in
Freeport or anywhere else in

Certainly, there is a plentiful
supply of lovely ladies to be
found at beaches throughout
the year—whether it be winter

Tomiczek the Bahamas has
two super camera subjects

the amateur and serious photo-

the other is Goombay Summer,

June to September throughout

Of course, for people who

More On Expropriation -1
iThis is a copy of a letter from MP Norm Cafik to the
Minister of Finance!
Re: Municipal Grant Act and Pickering Expropriation
Dear Mr. Minister:
There has been a very considerable debate between the
Department of Public Works and the Federal Crown and the
municipalities of Pickering, Uxbridge and Markham in
relationship to grants in lieu of taxes for the expropriated
Pickering airport.
Up until now, the Government has argued under Section 2F
of the Municipal Grants Act that in cases where Federal
Property is leased back to a third party, that the third party
is responsible for payment of taxes and therefore grants in
lieu of taxes for such individual property is an impossibility. I
must admit that for the last two years, I have accepted that
argument on the premise that I would have been told the real
facts in the case. However, I have subsequently looked at
:Section 2F of the Municipal Grants Act and I find that this
may be, but is not necessarily the case. I quote from Section
2F as follows:
"Except when otherwise prescribed by the Minister,
-real property owned by Her Majestv and leased to or
occupied by a person from whom, by reason of his
interest in or occupation of that real property, a
municipal taxing authority may collect real estate tax,
You will notice from the above excerpt from the Municipal
Grants Act that. in fact, the power to prescribe the method of
compensation rests with the Minister himself. In other
words, the Minister may prescribe* that a grant in lieu of
taxes can be made for such leased -back land if he so chooses.
In the case of Pickering, such a prescription by the Minister
has not been made. Therefore, the municipality is in the
position of collecting the taxes directly from expropriated
personsprior to the date of occupation which was May 30, 1975
and thereafter having the Crown act as a conduit for such
taxaction. In the latter case. the Crown collects the taxes

lie founders of Freeport, on Grand Bahama Isktmd, of to
build a glamour spot—with lavish hotels sock as the lrieeas
Tower (background) and gambling casinos such on EI Casio,
with its Moorish architectural style (foreground). If some vid-
tors wonder if anything is for real in Freeport, they hove to look
aro further than the local citizens, whose down-bo.earik qu hides
leave not been affected by the glitter and opulence.
Bahamians in Freeport
make city down to earth
FREEPORT, Bahamas—To
the visitor, this resort city
on Grand Bahama Island
sometimes appears to be an
unreal world.
That's because Freeport is
unlike any other area to the
Baharntas_or the Can'bbean
and West Indies, for that
matter.
Freeport wasn't ready for
tourists until 1964, when the
fust hotel opened. And up un-
til 1955, the arra where Free-
port-Lucaya is now situated
was just scrub and swamp.
The founders of the city
wanted to build aglamour
spot—with lavish hotels,
gambling casinos and a shop-
ping area which would attract
visitors.
They succeeded. The hotels
are opulent almost to the point
of extravagance. The casinos
offer glitter and nightlife. And
a shopping centre called the
International Bazaar is a
world's fair of shops and res-
taurants—a $3,000.000 centre
laid out on a 10 -acre tract with
the goods and foods of more
than two -dozen nations and
five continents displayed in
authentic settings ranging from
Oriental to European.
So it's no wander that some
visitors ask if anything is for
real in Freeport Although the
majority o people ting
Freeport enjoy the nightlife,
beaches and other activities,
the city has been criticized by
a few as a cardboard destin-
ation. with no soul, history or
tradition.
Yet Freeport offers one tan-
gible in common with Nassau.
the old colonial style capital
of the Bahamas, on New
Providence Island, and the
many quiet and quaint Baham-
ian Out Islands. And that is its
people.
All the glamour and opu-
lence surrounding Freeport
hasn't really aifo-ici the aver-
age Bahamian who lives here.
The people of the Bahamas,
and sister nations in the Carib-
bean and West Indies, are
sometimes misunderstood. An
unfortunate stereotyped image
held by too many North
Americans of the people Irving
in this area is that of lazyness,
indifference and a surly atti-
tude towards visitors.
The fact is, most Bahamians
are extremely shy people. and
while their capnaocee of living is
undeniably slower than that in
Canada and the United States,
they are cerainly not indiffer-
ent. They realize their hveh-
hood depends on the tourist
trade. and go out of their way
to make sure the visitor has a
good vacation.
Freeport is no exception.
While it would be easy to be-
come over -awed by the city.
Bahamians living here seem to
maintain a umple• easy gig
manner. Tourists who wonder
if there is anythiiareal about
Freeport treed loot no further
than the local people
For example, lancing with a
bartender in the Bahamas Prin-
oess Hotel by the name of
Arthur is a pleasant experi-
owe. Like most Bahamians, be
is quiet and deeply religious.
The glitter of Freeport hasn't
changed him one bit.
I am at peace with God,"
he will tell you, "therefore I
am at peace with myself. And
that is the truth. I've gone
through it all, and I haven't
been the best person on this
earth by any means. But
prayer has helped me a lot."
In this day and age, many
people may not share Arthur's
views on religion. But certainly
you must respect him as a de-
cent, reasonable young man.
Someone who likes to talk if
given the chance. He and his
fellow Bahamians give Free-
port a down-to-earth quality it

BP Canada and Pop Shoppes.
Self Serve Works Well
At Kingston & Galloway Roads
Three years ago when Robert McAulay was still in university, he took a summer job
managing a small variety store and Supertest service station at Rondeau Provincial Park
near Chatham.
That experience is helping him and his wife Corylvnne, run a successful BP self -serve gas
bar and Pop Shoppe at Kingston and Galloway Roads.
"I had worked in gas stations before as summer jobs and part-time during school," he said,
"so I had some experience before I started here in May of last year."
A dealer first. McAulav became an agent last March when the outlet beca me a self -serve
operation. "Self -serve gas on this site really fits in well because the pop is basically self -
serve." he said.
Robert's wife Corylynne said that many of their customers buy both gas and pop. "They
may come in for gas and decide to get some pop or the other way around. Many of our
regular customers come in and the wife gets the pop while the husband fills the tank."
The McAulays who have been married for two years found the first year in business dif-
ficult. Robert said, "We were working very long hours and there weren't enough sales at
that time to support the hiring of even part-time help."
Considering that the outlet is open seven days a week, it must have been a strain but things
have changed now for the better. In the summer when pop sales are very high, the operation
boasts "three full-time employees and one part-timer which allows us to get away for a
couple of relaxing days alone, usually during the week when the shop is not as busy as
weekends,'. Robert added.
"It keeps us pretty busy," Robert said. "There's a lot of work involved but it is nice that
Cory and I can be together at work as well here as at home."
They live in an apartment 10 minutes away from the outlet and have no children. As Robert
joked, "We haven't had time."
"The sales from the Pop Shoppe (which has more than 2,000 cases in stock' have been
building steadily, but winter sales are only half of what the summer brings except, of
course, for Christmas which tops the list as the busiest time of the year," he added.
The self -serve gas operation has four double pumps with a no -lead pump. Also available for
motor vehicles is carry -out oil in a four -pack for people who want to do their own al
changes.
To complement the pop sales there is also available the party items such as chips, ice
cream, peanuts and ice.
Robert McAulay said that the biggest improvement will be when the reconstruction and
widening of Kingston Rd. finishes. Though, he admitted some of the workmen tearing up
Kingston Rd. in front of his business were coming in to gas their cars and take home some
Pop
The McAulays seem to make the best of everything.

Sportsfair Success
Brisk winds and cloudy
skies on Sunday, September
7, didn't deter thousands of
Metro outdoors enthusiasts
from taking in the day of
family fun at Metro Region
Conservation's annual
Sportsfair at Cold Creek
Conservation Area.
One of the biggest surprises
for visitors to the park was
the popularity among dog
lovers of Siberian huskies.
Breeders brought more than
150 of the beautiful. mostly -
blue -eyed canines to take
part in the special dog show
and to run in the team
demonstrations. Frisky,
woolly little puppies being
offered for sale (at prices
ranging from $150 to $25o
each, were an added at-
traction.
While the day wasn't en-
tirely one for the dogs. they
certainly were a major
drawing card. Beautiful
collies fronLCaledon Kennel
Association were put
through their paces to show
just how well a dog can be
trained to obey commands.
And. of course. for the
youngsters a major event
was the "mutt" show for
family pet dogs. Far from
being "mutts", however.
many of the two dozen pets
entered were elegant dogs
running the gamut in size
from Skye terriers to
majestic Russian
wolfhounds. Well-trained
dogs from the Labrador Club
also put on a retrieval
demonstration.
Large crowds of visitors
gathered about falconry
specialist Ulrich Watermann
of Brampton to hear his talk
on his birds of prey. Among
the live birds he had with
him were a sparrow hawk, a
European great owl and a
golden eagle.
Young and old, men and
women took full advantage
of the opportunity to fire
guns on the rifle range or zip
arrows at the archery list.
Two members of the
Canadian Parabatic Club
thrilled the crowd as they
floated in the high wind to
make pinpoint landings on
the grounds.
The day concluded with a
mock battle between
members of the Etobicoke
Indian Club and muzzle-
loader bearing "soliders"
from Upper Canada Rifles.

Rams Still Number One
In East
by Gordon Ashberry
When you have a strong
offense and a strong defense
you have a very good chance
of winning hal] games. And
last Sunday afternoon in
Peterborough the Scar-
borough Rams had both of
these and a little extra to
defeat the Panthers by the
score of 49-7.
The win kept the Rams in
first place in the Eastern
Division of the Ontario
Football Conference. Ottawa
is still in second spot just one
point behind and only a
singlepoint ahead of Verdun.
And only two games left for
each of'them in the regular
season.
Jim McLeod went all the
way for the Rams to prove to
Coach Ed Mitchell that he
has two good starting
Quarterbacks. Lance Perrin
was up to his usual good
form with 3 Touchdowns and

yards on 13 carries.

on a hand-off reverse he

Mcleod passed to Tony F allns
for a 2 point conversion.
The sconng started in the
first quarter when after
carrying the hall four suc-
cessive times, lance Perrin
crossed the line. John
Traczuk's convert was Rood.
Quarterback Bob 'Mullen
evened things up in the
second by carrying it himself
around the Idf end 6 points.
Jeff Simmons added the
extra point, giving Peter-

Time To Move Houseplants
Now is the time to move
those house plants, that have
been summering in the
garden, hack into the house•
according to horticultural
experts in the lawn and
garden section of Canadian
Industries Limited
agricultural chemicals
division.
Since these plants will not
withstand freezing weather
it is important to bring them
into the house before the first
frost. However. it is wise to
bring poinsettias in a little
earlier since they dislike the
cool, fall weather. Christ-
mas cactus and azaleas need
the cooler temperatures to
help set buds.
Even some normal outdoor
bedding plants can give
extra months of bloom in-
doors. Fibrous begonias.
geraniums and impatiens
can be pinched back
severely, potted up and
brought in before frost
touches them. Fed every two
weeks on "CIL Geranium
Food" and set in a sunny
window. They can go on
dooming all winter.
If they are still in the pot.
moving is a relatively simple
task. However. if thev have
been planted in the garden
greater care is required in
moving them.
The first step actually, is to
prepare the pot. The
following pertains primarily
to the common, earthen.
planting pot• but all pots
should be cleaned. Clean
thoroughly and remove any
salt or lime encrustations.
As a final step sterilize the
lxtt to kill any insect eggs or
disease germs. You can use
boiling water or a dilute
solution of household
chlorine bleach.
Pot size is also important
The root system of a plant
has roughly the same spread
as the foliage. so it is im-
portant that the pot be large
enough. as wide assess as
the foliage spread. If the
plant was in a pot all sum-
mer it may have outgrown
that pot size and require re-
pot ti ng
Soil is also important. You
can purchase a potting plant
mixture. or make up your
own. A good sal mixture
consists of one part coarse
sand, one part sterilized soil,
and one pert well decayed
plant material icornpostt.
or pea t mass.
Good drainage in the pot is
essential• but many home
gardeners make the error of
Mocking; the bottom of the
pot. Put a good layer of
broken crockery or coarse
gravel on the bottom.
"rurface" a porous calcined
clay, has many uses for the
home gardener. It can make
up 1/3 of the sal mix, and a
one inch layer m the bottom
of the pot will aid in "drown
proofing" the plant.
Dig up the plant carefully so
the roots remain in a ball of
sal and plant at the ap-
propriate height in the pot.
Place the plant in the pot so
the surface of the soil will be
an inch below the rim of the
pot to allow for watering.
Firm down the soil around
the root ball.
With the plant potted, now
is the time to cut off all
discolored or dead blossoms
and leaves. Destroy these as
they may carry disease
spores or insect eggs.
Water the plant well. Since
feeding is necessary as well
as watering, for a healthy
plant, it is recommended
that a solution of one teaspoon
of "Green Elf" per quart of
water be prepared and used.
This will help the plant

recover from the shock of
transplanting. By using this
solution every two or three
weeks in lieu of a normal
watering you are assured of
meeting the continuing
feeding requirements.
Protecting potted plants in
the Muse from insects by
spraying is sometimes in-
convenient due to lack of
suitable equipment, or
inadequate space or ven-
tilation. A simpler method is
to apply "CIL SLTK" as a
roi Idrench, whereby a
solution is soaked into the
soil. The systemic portion of
the mix is taken up by the
plant roots and enters the
leaves and sterns in the sap
system. Sucking insects such
as aphids, leafminers, mites
and w•hiteflies are controlled
as they attempt to feed on
the plant.
For bromeliads, carnation,
chrysanthemum, crassula,
Easter Lily. impatiens.

one teaspoons "SLIK" in on
qua rt 140 oz. I of w•a ter a rid
slowly pour 1/4 cup 14 oz. 1 of
this solution onto moist soil
in each 6" pot.
For most other flowering
and foliage plants use two
teaspoons per quart of
water. Drench with 1 cup
solution per 6" pot. Pots
larger or smaller than the 6"
example will take more or
less of the same solution
according to size. Examples.
114 cup p•r a" pot. and 2 cups
per to" pot.
It is suggested that plants
moved in from the garden or
re -potted plants be given the
first application of 'SLIK"
two or three days after thev
have been moved . Allow a t
least six weeks between
applications of "SLIK".
Incidentally. most house
plants require about four
hours of sunshine per day. or
the equivalent in artificial
light. This should be taken
into consideration when
deciding where to place
plants in the house.

Do You Remember Roma And Newt?
by Arthur Joynt
Agincourt was a quiet,
peaceful hamlet at a time
when Roma and Newt came
to stay. Stately tall maple
trees aligned the streets and
children played freely well
outside the pace of the
metropolitan area.
It was a short time before
the five -hundred or so
population of Agincourt
accepted Roma and Newt,
but accept them they did.
From then on it was a ,joyous
occasion that lasted about
thirty-seven years.
Roma, a most charming
lady and affectionate
mother, was always an in-
fluence to those around her.
Like her own mother before
her, she was always there to
help someone. I suppose
those of you who knew her
were delighted by the ec-
static home cooking that she
would create and share. It
was always a joy for her to
be with friends in the church
groups, and all others who
came into contact with her.
Newt began his agency at
the f'NR station in Agin-
court. I have seen so many
old letters commenting how
helpful he was to this one and
that one around the station.
Of course Newt's greatest
pleasure was to participate

Let's be honest. Life on the West Shore is nice. But what's
even nicer is that we are so close to some of the very fine
attractions that Pickering Township has to offer. Last
weekend our family attended `History In Action' at the
Brougham Museum. We had such a grand time that I'm very
much tempted to offer a satisfaction or- money -back
guarantee to every reader of the Pickering Post who
promises to attend it next year.
Most museums are musty, dry, and deadly dull. You
wouldn't take your children - much less yourself- because
you'd be bored stiff. All of you.
But as the title indicates. they show you history in action.
They don't just show you a contraption thatwas used to make
apple cider in the old days; they have the contraption out in
the back yard MAKING apple cider. You can watch how they
do it and for ten cents you can treat yourself to a fresh cup of
real apple cider. Now, THAT'S history in action - you learn
something,you can watch it in action, and you can even taste
it.
This year, an added attraction is a trio of country
musicians who, like travelling troubadors, did a few tunes in
each of the several buildings on the grounds and reallyadded
to the old-timeatmesphere.The leader was fiddler Bill Clark.

Shore News By Margaret McLeod -
along with his nephew Keith Jones, both of Greenwood, and
Art Cryderman of Brooklin on the banjo.
Whatever your taste in music, you could not have stopped
your toe from tapping when you listened to this trio. Bill
Clark, gap-toothed and wearing overalls, was grinning all the
time and so obviously enjoying himself that you could not
help but enjoy yourself, too.
At one point, they were fiddling furiously in the recon-
structed blacksmith shop and playing encore after encore.
Finally they tired; and Bill Clark said, "Well, we need a
break folks, so that's the end of the music for a while."
Regretfully, the crowd turned to leave. One of the departing
and very appreciative audience was a well dressed
Torontonian. He shouted over his shoulder, "Oh, no, it's not
the end of the music - I'm taking it with me!" He turned on
his tape recorder,and the sounds of Turkey In The Straw
blared out as he left the building. Bill Clark laughed. His
nephew Keith laughed. Art and banjo player laughed. We all
laughed. Total strangers smiled at each other.
It was a very special moment: and very moving. By George,
I wi Il of fer your money back if you do not enjoy the Museum's
History In Action days next fall. It's the safest bet I ever
made.
P.M.A. SPONSORS TOURNAMENT
The P.M.A. Realty novice girls' tournament was held on
Sept. 6 with eight teams participating. A total of 12 games
were played during the day on the two diamonds at Dunmore
Park. During the double knock -out Ajax and Owen Sound
were eliminated in the first two rounds. The West Shore
entry, P.M.A. Realty, and the Cougars were dropped in the
third round. At 6 p.m. the championship game got underway
with Bridlewood winning over Fernhill. The consolation
game was won by the Sweeties over Harmon Park. Joe Wilks
presented trophies to both winners. Crests were presented to
all players. coaches and managers.
LOCAL LIONS SPONSOR WALK-A-THON
Quietly but effectively, the Pickering Lions Chub has been
helping the needy. sponsoring a teenage alcoholism
education van, providing bus stop shelters and the like. To
continue their good work, the local Lions are holding a walk-
a-thon an Sept. 30 in the West Shore area. It will be held that
Saturday, starting from the I.G.A. Plaza in Bay Ridges.
Anyone can participate; though children under 13 should be
accompanied by an adult.
After expenses, half of the proceeds will go to help the
training of Canadian athletes participating in the 1976
Olympics. The other half will be spent on the Lions'
charitable projects in the West Shore area. For more in-
formation, phone Roy Giroux at 839-5423.
AN AIRPORT — OR FOOD?
Read some interesting statistics in a mailing received from
People Or Planes, the anti -airport organization. P.O.P.
states that the 18,000 acres wanted by Ottawa for a Pickering
airport, previously fed 40,000 people annually. Each year, the
area sent the following produce to Toronto: 4 million quarts
of milk, 200,000 dozen eggs, $2.25 million dollars worth of beef
at 1971 prices, 375,000 pounds of pork, 45,000 bushels of wheat,
30,000 chickens. And the region had the highest yield of corn
per acre in Ontario.
Small wonder the price of food is rising.
A TRIBUTE TO ERNIE
Speaking of People or Planes, a large gathering was held
Sunday afternoon at the Ernie Carruthers' farm just north of
the 8th Concession, Ernie has been firm hold-out against the
federal government's attempt to wreck the historic home in
which he was born nearly 70 years ago.
But he's going to have to move. He has been subject to
harrassment and threats - including that of a fine of $5000 a
day if he does not leave the home in which he was born - so he
is being forced to move out.
Just to encourage Erne to move out, the federal Ministry of
Transport has been trucking the rubble from the Pickering
Township homes it has destroyed - and dumping it on the
fertile field of Ernie's farm.
The afternoon was intended as a tribute to Erne and his
family; and the response was impressive. We noticed many
West Shore people there. to say nothing of people from
Toronto. Hamilton and elsewhere. They were coming and
going all afternoon, so it was hard to get an accurate count;
but there must have been at least 3,000 visitors all untold if
not more. conservatively.
P.O.P. gave Ernie and his family a lovely etching of his
home done by local artist Jane Buckles. But several of the
people in the audience wept at the thought that this fine man,
who's the sa It of the earth to anyone who's ever met him, will
be left with only a picture instead of the birthright he
inherited. worked. developed, earned, and thought he owned.
