May 7,1960 opinion a page for expression for you and us What's New This past week has seen another phase in the "Will We Get An Oil Agreement Between Alberta and Ottawa" and a few - other events, such as commandos attacking the Iranian embassy in London. England and freeing hostages. World events - and especially economic change - are hap- pening so quickly that most of us are unprepared to these rapid movements. The trouble is that each one affects our lives to one degree or another. Take the Chrysler Corporation's request for millions of dollars to help out a large car corporation rescue itself from bankruptcy. How many small businesses in Canada. owned by Canadians, have been helped by tax dollars lately? Not many. The federal and provincial governments are too involved in rescuing people and projects which are not economically viable, in our opinion. And besides, even if $200 million were given to Chrysler, there is no guarantee that our car workers' jobs would be rescued. We need government to keep itself out of private en- terprise. Socialism merely wears down the determination of human beings in time. and giving money to a lost cause, such as Chrysler. is just socialism, at its worst. If Chrysler sold its Canadian operation to the government, the idea is slightly better - but not much. But don't be too discouraged: A corporate seminar held recently in Scarborough by the Toronto Dominion Bank seemed to say that things are not all that bad Of course, for everyone bothered by high interest rates, there is always somebody with money who is making more with it on the high interest rates. Miracle Foodmart announced last week that it is ex- panding its stores - in fact. it is setting up new "combination stores" which are Larger and sell almost everything you want on a weekly basis. In Scarborough the Brimley Rd. overpass to the town centre is still up in the air, because there appears to be no solution which satisfies the residents concerned by the wider use of Brimley Rd. and the officials working on the town centre future. • , t � � aiiiiiiiiiii t � � � May is Family Month In an attempt to stress the positive role the family plays in our lives. the Ontario Government has proclaimed May as Family Unity Month. During the month. people are being et►couraged to set aside special times to do meaningful things together as families. Agencies, religious institutions and schools are also being asked to organize special events for families. The Hon. Margaret Birch, Provincial Secretary for Social Development. said, "by showing our families we really care in May. we can enjoy the benefits all year round." -'In recent years", she said. "considerable media at- tention has been focussed on such issues as divorce rates and incidents of child abuse. We sometimes overlook the hundreds of thousands of healthy family units in Ontario that act as the mortar holding our social structure together. ' ..Family Unity '.Month is mot intended to sweep bad mews about families under the rug". said Mrs. Birch. "On the contrary, we hope it will stimulate discussion on all aspects of family life in an effort to help us better understand what it is that makes the family work. The month will also give us time to reflect on our own role in our own families." The Province is now holding a series of regional con- ferences on the family. Ontario residents are encouraged to make their views on the family known to government, agencies and institutions which support the family. gpiiiiiiiii, iiiiiiiiiib 4111111111 411111111111 411111111111 111111111 World Red Cross Gay May 8 is World Red Cross Day.

Tbere is no doubt that the people of Ontario, like all Canadians. are today facing issues which have the potential to dramatically alter our social and economic future. Our neighbours to the east are seriously considering major constitutional revision and "sovereignty -association", while our neighbours to the west are building on their energy resources and enjoying a new found economic prosperity. Ontario is located in the midst of two different kinds of change. But I believe that we are well equipped to provide the leadership which is necessary to restore a measure of balance to the situation. The people of Ontario have been and continue to express their willingness to nape sub- stantial contributions to the economic security and well- being of Canada. This week Premier Davis said. "That whateverthe in- ternational economic uncertainties, whatever the strains on our confederation. economic or otherwise, we shall, as Ontartans, continue to put Canada first in all matters of policy and program". We are facing a time when the thrust of our national economy is unequally weighted in a single primary resource sector in Western Canada - namely oil. Ontario. for example, functions in contrast to this, in a balanced economy. Ontario leads production in the manufacturing transportation. and utilities sectors in the country. In ad- dition to these resources, Ontario also has the seco.-nd Largest agricultural sector of any province in Canada as well as the second largest resources extraction sector. Due to our financial and industrial expertise, Ontarians have been instrumental in participating in resource booms generated throughout the rest of Canada. In troubled times, Ontario's record of growth is impressive. In the last decade, Ontario's employment growth surpassed the levels in Canada, West Germany, Japan, the U.K. and the U.S. Clearly leading the way in national fiscal restraint, the Government of Ontario made sure these jobs were crated in the private sector. Building a partnership for all Canadians will demand fairness and equity for all Canadians. Right now, we have a national equalization formula in which Ontario taxpayers pay over 40% of the cost of bridging the energy gap for Atlantic Canada while our energy dollars are shipped west. As a result of these kinds of economic inequities we lose our ability to serve the people of Ontario. The Government of Tom vv ell's, MPr" Scarborough North this province is working to negotiate an economic system which would curb this kind of distortion in cash flow. The Government of Ontario is committed to working towards a balanced national economy and building a climate in which the interests of all Canadian can best be met. This process will demand reform - be it constitutional, economic or attitudinal. For change to give way to growth, all governments will need to cooperate in oris task. The Government of Ontario is committed to fostering this cooperation. We want to see Canada grow Real Estate Is Still Looking Good Despite some hesitation in the market in recent weeks because of unprecedented mortgage rates, members of the Toronto Real Estate Board reported over halt a billion dollars worth of residential sakes through the Multiple Listing Service in the first four months of this year, $37 - million more than in the corresponding period last year. "Spring is traditionally a period of strong activity and many of those who hesitated to buy could be making their decisions in the nett few weeks", said Board President Maurice Lamond. "We have no reason to believe that there has been any decline in the desire for home ownership: in fact it probably has increased with the shortage of good apartment accommodation. The number of inquiries about the market at the Board offices from members of the public show this. Opportunities to buy are increasing with over 15,000 residential properties on the MIS market in April compared with 13,500 in March. ' Those who are in the fortunate position of being able to buy without any problem in arranging financing are acting upon the wall established fact that well situated good property is a superb builder of financial security. "A noticeable trend for more than a year has been activity at the top of the market. Last April 11 sales were reported at over $200,000 and this April brought 30 reports in that category. The two highest sold at $450,000 and $445,00 and there were five in the $300,000 to $400,000 range.

I won't bore you with an account of last week's activities save one; that was last Friday night's performance of "CALIFORNIA SUITE". There is only one sad thing about this show. The show opened on Thursday; closed on Saturday after four performances and that means that if you didn't see it you missed a very en- tertaining evening. "California Suite" is composed of four playlets whose action takes place in rooms 200 and 204 in the Beverly Hills Hotel. It is typical Neil Simon, which that had the same problem with Noel Coward's people, but at least they were more polite. I think that the same problem bothered Kathy Burgess and Lawrence Hillman in the First Sketch. They are just too nice in real life to be Hannah and William Warren. I did feel that this playlet was not up to Simon at his best. He relied on obscenities to replace Hedy. The "Zingers" did not Zing. They sort of Zapt. The pace could have been increased and voices pitched higher. In short Kathy appeared too decent to be the "S.O.B." that her character insisted she was. I always thought that was she got there. Within seconds he is told by the desk that his wife is on her way up.Dilema,of Dilemas. He has always been an honest and faithful husband. To complicate it, he cannot waken the woman. This required a very delicate touch and very Ephysical acting. Art inukoff was excellent as the husband and quickly gained the sympathy of the audience. Barbara Chapelle walked away with the honours.by Paying the wife who could not understand or accept the situation, believed her husband because she knew and loved him. She made the wife a beautiful lady. Wad.

I just end up feeling sorry for the wretches, even though I have been amused by their antics. and am thankful that I do not encounter their like in my social life. I After the opener, we were treated to 'Visitor From Philadelphia', which was to my mind the best of the four. The premise for this one was more original and had very little venom. The plot goes this way: a couple take separate flights to attend a Bar Mitzvah. The husband arrives the right before. When he awakes from a drunken sleep he finds a strange woman in bed with Min and he has no idea how Scarborough Borough Business by Rita Daly SEEKS LEGAL ACTION ON WARD 3 VACANCY Former school board trustee David Owen is seeking legal on actiagainst Scarborough council for failing to fill the Ward 3 aldermaolc vacancy. Council was given notice of a writ for judicial review to order that the vacancy be filled by appointment or by- election_ The hearing is scheduled for May 7 at Osgoode Hall. Owen preirmusly annm ouced has intention to seek election to council as alderman for the ward shortly after former alderman Norm Kelly was elected MP for Scarborough Centre on Feb. 18. Despite the legal imphcations, council failed again m its attempt to frit the seat. At last week's meeting. two motions were made by Alderman Alan Robinson to reopen the issue, but the effort was defeated an both accounts. The first attempt lost in a tie vote of 9-a, and the second vote, taken after a brief private session, fell short of the two-thirds majority needed to re -open the debate. The issue will be re -introduced at the May 12 conocil TRUCKS PROHIBITED temporarily trucks will betemporarily Prohibited from using Meadowvale Rd. between Lawson Rd. and Lawrence Ave. until an intersection or overpass at Highway 2A is con- structed. The request was made by Ward 9 Alderman Doug Colling. Future plans call for the construction of an m- terchange/overpass or level intersection at Highway 2A and Meadowvale Rd., making the latter an arterial road from Steeles Ave. to Lawrence Ave. CUC AGREES TO PAY COSTS Cable Utility Communications (CUC) Ltd. has agreed to Pay the Borough of Scar'bor'ough $20,000 annually should they take over complete cable operatics in the municipality.un Council last week adopted a Board of Control recom- mendation asking the company for a formal agreement to the request. The payments will cover the $5,000 received by the municipality from each of the four existing cable companies every year. CUC (Scarborough) Ltd. is seeking approval by the Canadian Radio -Television and Telecommunications Commission to merge with Wired City Communications and York Cable Television Ltd. for form a single cable com- pany. The hearing is scheduled for May 20 in Vancouver. The CRTC has already given approval to a merger with Rogers Cable TV in Agincourt, which is being transferred to CUC Ltd. in September. KNOBHILL PUBLIC MEETING Board of Control last week postponed approval of the secondary plans for the Knob Hill industrial development so that residents of the Cbffcrest community can voice their concerns. The issue will be dealt with at a public Planning Board meeting and at an evening council meeting. Area residents objecting to the development say it will endanger the surrounding environment and deflate the value of adjacent residential neighbourhoods. The property, which is already zoned industrial, requires an official plan amendment for the proposed industrial development. is the author's incongruous humour. As far as the performers were con- cerned, they did terrific jobs. Lawrence Hillman and Angela Pool worked together to give a polished account of their roles.

Reuben Baetz, Minister of Culture and Recreation Ontario William Davis, Premier Papa 6 THE NEWWPOST Wad. May r. 1"o Bill Watt's World PREAMBLE: A reader 6ugggests that a recent column comes close to temerity. The column in question is the one in which we reviewed both Ella Fitzgerald at the Imperial Room and the performance of Peter Grimes by the Canadian Opera Company at The O'Keefe. The same reader also suggests that comment on the clarity of Miss Fitzgerald viz a viz the soloists of the opera company was fatuous. Well firstly, there is no ,anomaly in the inclusion of those artists in the same column. After all, this is 'Bill Watt's WORLD dealing with the world of entertainment. There are -as many readers who wish to read about supper clubs as there are those who wish to read about opera. Secondly, there was no intent to suggest that Miss Fitzgerald is a clearer singer than any of the members of the Canadian Opera Company. That would most certainly be fatuous. It's true that she is probably the clearest of all popular singers but even she would admit that her voice and declamation is nowhere near that of a classically trained singer. It is also true however, that any singer of any opera written in English is at a disadvantage because the deficiencies of the language do not allow for clarity. Finally, one whose mind and emotions are open can and does enjoy all of the performing arts. We have often felt pity for those unfortunates who are not L77 to such a felicity. OU'T TO LUNCH: At the places t 0 g INNOW 0 luncheon given for the Playmate of the Year we were fortunate to have as dining companions, :Elwood Glover, Jim Paulsen, Merle Shain, Linda Hurst, Elizabeth Norris the official chaperone of Miss Playmate and a young man by the name of Greg Rist.

At present he's with CITY -TV on the wrong side of the camera ( he's one of the men who make Fatso Martineau look good) but it shouldn't be long before you see him on screen.

Up until the latter years of his tragically short We. he was little in the public eye. So this book serves rrell to fill in much of his life which has been hithertonow (or hither to us, at least) unknown. You'll learn for instance what we had Iang suspected .. his beautif voice was not just the pro t of teadnirng by his ill ousfather.l�edd,in fact, wort in radio - in Chicago - with Don Ameche another actor with a fine voice. You'll discover that he was, by anx standard, a .fast learn ' easily ac- complishing such skills as piano fingering as well as riding and swordsmanshipp. He was quite a sword- sman off screen as well and his many affairs are reasonably well chronicled. All in all, a good and in- teresting book. THE LOST LEGION (Doubleday) The two best historical novelists of this century have been Samuel Shellabarger and Thomas Costain. The former combined reasonable historical accuracy with an easy writing style not unlike that of Sabatini. The latter served up great quantities of historical data in a neo-classic style reminiscent of Bulwer. Lytton. H. Warner Munn, author Of the Lost Legion has evidently tried to meld the style of Shellabarger and the historical plenitude of Costain. He has failed. His style is almost relentlessly that of the peacock rather like a Conrad showing off his newfound grammatical aptitude. Historical facts are sparse and frequently subject to challenge. The Lost Legion is a vast sprawling novel (621 Pages) detailing the saga of Paul Williams opens next Tuesda, a, ne Imperial K:)( - a VRoman army sent, for political reasons. on a suicidal mission to find and rescue the descendants of a previous legion supposedly lost many years prior in China. The army is commanded by Manlius Varro (sic') and includes a young Roman noblewoman who has run away to be with her impressed poet legionary, a freed slave seeking revenge on a grandmother who might or might not even know of his existence. the soldier who pierced the side of the Saviour on the cross. Chinese wauurssriiinnorr traders and a confassarted array of other characters . . sort of a moving Grand Hotel. You'll also meet St. Paul and the son of Manlius Varro who has been a gladiator. The premise is promising and to be fair to Mr. Munn, he does possess some skill in tying together mast of the disparate elements . rather in the manner of Arthur Hailey. But, there are just too many of them even making due allowance for literary license. And, the characters are not defined in depth. And. the author's style is just too artsy craftsy. And. and .. we're using up the allowable number of prefatory conjunctions. The Lost Legion is, simply put, a noble attempt to nrnduce a lasting work. oo bad it hasn't sic ceeded. THE PILATE PLOT ( Academic Press/Longman's) Don't let the title fool you. This isn't an historical novel. It's set in the present day and deals with the im- portance of traditional mores in high level diplomacy. The hero is a retired British secret agent conspiring to see that the Proper authorities get and properly care for a religious relic that might or might not be genuine. The relic is a letter long rumoured to exist which will prove Pontius Pilate innocent of any wrongdoing in the execution of Christ. Another good premise and one that promises a nice combination of ec- clesiastical history and gut level derring do. It might have worked had the author, Martin Page, not been greedy. His facility with words is such that his technique cannot be doubted. One must con- clude then, that his sen- tentious verbosity is oc- casioned only by greed for a higher word remuneration. What should be a tight adventure story (TV could do it 30 minutes) becomes a rambling bore. You'll stick with it to the end because you'll genuinely want to know how it turns out. But, mark our words, you'll be disappointed. One other thing Pages's theology is half baked and his knowledge of espionage was apparently learned in the pal ges of the Boy's Annu PREDICTIONS ( Collins This is scheduled for publication this Saturday and we believe it could well be a best seller. Joe Fisher has done a trice job of research and writing in this book. It's broken up into four parts which deal with The Classical Prophets, The Crystal Ball And The Cross, The Professional Predictors and Intimations Of The End. Each part is. in turn. brokeninto individual sections peahno with the specifics of prediction. Our favourite is that dealing with The Futurists. As a science fiction buff of long stan- ding, it's pleasing to see how often our writers have been far in advance of the think tankers - the futurists. We believe too that you will also particularly en the section an The Irish Saints and its emphasis an the future of the Papacy. Much of the material in Mr. Fisher's book is familiar as one might expect. It remains though that it is a fascinating overview of the subject. Just a little bit frightening as well but we suggest you find out why for yourself. LAST WORD: This time it's from Morris my sartor at Classy. Opera is like an oyster.

THESE FEATURE STORIES CANNOT BE REPRODUCED IN WHOLE ON IN PART WITHOUT THE WRITTEN PERYIr_q nw nr TME W&ITce I Scarborough Board of Education Notes t by Evelyn Beal TWO MEETINGS Scarborough Board of Education held 2 committee meetings last week, Planning and Education. Normally, Planning would be last Monday, but was scheduled earlier to allow trustees and officials to attend the many school activities being held this week to commemorate Education Week. IDENTIFICATION At the Education committee M.R. Labonte, Chairman of the French Language Advisory committee, spoke to the trustees about the difficulty identifying the French- speaking ratepayer in Scarborough. The Ministry of Education is studying the problem. DELEGATES Bert Dandy, Separate School representative and Barbara Fava, Trustee Ward 1 have been appointed voting delegates to the Association of Large School Boards Annual Meeting which is meeting this week in Ottawa. FOR TRAINABLE PUPILS The Metro Toronto School Board is operating classes for the trainable retarded pupils in 2 clsssrooms at G.B. Little Jr. and Henry Hudson Sr. Public Schools. The program started in September 1974 with 20 to 25 students and has been very successful. In 1979 Metro extended a similar program in York Borough to a collegiate and were very satisfied with the experiment. Eudcation Committee approved Metro's request to extend the Scarborough program to West Hill Collegiate. Space is available and the principal and staff are in agreement. EVALUTION Three trustees will serve on a "CoOperative Evaluation and Development of School Systems" committee. Joe Turner Ward 5, Shirley Tomlinson Ward 7 and Eva Nichols Ward 9 with Board officials, teachers, principals, students, staff and community representatives will be involved in an evaluation program of the Scarborough Board of Education. The project will start in September 1900 and finish in June 1902. James J. Watt. Asst. Director of Education and the senior official an the committee, said: "We are entering into this evaluation because we believe Scarborough is a strong system and all strong systems can afford to be evaluated... INNER CITY SCHOOLS "Inner City" schools have increased 5% on the average each year since 1974, mostly outside the City of Toronto. Schools are designated "Inner City" when the school has a large miniber of students needing special assistance. Metro Toronto School Board provides additional staff and funding for supplies and instructional materials. In 1969 two Scarborough schools were "Imuer City'. Between 1969 and 1979 the number increased to 12. At last weei's Education committee meeting, trustees approved a change in the name of the group of schools to "Program Assisted Schools" and agreed to adding 11 more public schools to the program. EDUCATION WEEK OFFICIALLY OPENS Education Week '90 got off to a flying start in Scarborough with the release of 5,000 helium -filled balloons on Mon. May S. The balloons were released from Albert Campbell Square i as part of the official opening ceremonies at the Scar- borough Civic Centre. Together in Education". the theme of Education Week '80 was carried far and wide as hundreds of Scarborough students release the balloons. Rev. Wm. Davis. Chairman of the Board, and W.A. Parish, Director of Educatim, joined students in celebrating this special week. Along with then will be representatives of 25 local service clubs and business firms, signifying the partnership between home, school and community. The balloon launch was the finale in a program which included music by the All Scarborough Wind Ensemble and the Churchill Collegiate Stage Band. A NIGHT TO REMEMBER - MAY 9 Corsages, candelight and a complete six course meal will make it a night to remember for students attending Winston Churchill Collegiate's annual semi -formal dance to be held May 9 at the Royal York Hotel.

The celebrations conclude with a dance Saturday evening at the San Remo Ballroom on Kingston Road. The school is located at 350 Morningside Ave., West Hill. EDUCATION WEEK From the first note to the last stanza Education Week '80 will be seven days of song and celebration. From May 4 to 10 the community is invited into Scarborough schools and the schools will reach out to the community. The following is a short summary of some of the activities for Education Week. Activities began Sun. May 4 when many Scarborough schools joined local church congregations in recognizing Education Week. On Mon. May 5 the Geography Department at Birchmount Park C.I. held special assembly to discuss environmental concerns within the community. A panel of experts debated the applications and implications of asbestos. On Tues. May 6 and Thurs.

SEVEN OAKS BUSING Busing of students from Seven Oaks and Highland Creek communities to West Hill Collegiate will continue for one more year. Seventy-five parents from the Seven Oaks Community Association attended this month's Planning meeting to protest the proposal to discontinue busing in September 1900. A brief presented by David Henderson, Co -Chairman of the Safety Committee of the Seven Oaks Community --.Amu ..clot rive LQLxwtate s promem was Wad. May 7, 1900 THE NEWSIPOST POOH 11 because it is the only Scarborough Collegiate with a multiple of safety hazards. Parents are worried because 383 Seven Oaks students have "four busy intersections to cross, children might succumb to hitch -hiking, the ravine without sidewalks increases danger, dense parkland in Morningside Park could be risky and darting for buses could be a hazard." The narrow singular driveway to the collegiate at the top of a steep hill poses another risk. HIGHLAND CREEK SAFETY Eva Nichols, trustee Ward 9 spoke on behalf of the Highland Creek Community Association: She said parents are concerned about the children's safety because there are no traffic lights at the school's entrance, T.T.C. buses are inadequate, the singular driveway is dangerous. Parts of Morningside Avenue have no boulevards and some students would have to walk along busy roads without sidewalks, such as Sheppard Avenue. Diane Williams, trustee Ward a said "I have received many calls from parents and not one has complained about the children walkitlg, but were very concerned about safety." David Henderson said "We don't want our kids to be coddled, but their safety should be looked after.,' George Telley trustee Ward 3 said "the communities must ;get out and ask for help from - the Metropolitan Toronto ;government to install traffic lights and increase bus ser- vice." Gerry Phillips trustee Ward 11 and Pat Collie Ward I were worried about that continuing buses for a year might en- courage Metro officials to not act on safety requirements.

To prepare your lawn, rake the surface with a lightweight brume rake. As much as passible, leave last year's grass plants and clippings behind as they eventually return to the soil as valuable humus. Then get ready to apply fer- tilizer. "You'll see quick results with any fertilizer. But for sustained and prolonged benefits you must use a premium lawn fertilizer", says Jim Vigus, buyer of horticulture and seasonal merchandise for Beaver Lumber Company Limited. The fertilizer should con- tain a balanced mixture of nitrogen, phosphorous and potash, plus minor plant food such as iron. calcium. sulphur, boron and magnesium. If a quality fertilizer is used now, a lighter ap- plication is needed in late Spring. If your lawn has crabgrass, treat it with a special fertilizer that acts as a barrier to crabgrass seed. Repair" Aare Spots Early Spring is also a good tine to put down a new lawn or additional seed in bare spots. Loosen all the soil in these bare areas with a Barden fork or rake. Combine one pound of premium fertilizer and one pound of quality grass seed with a bushel of prepared, sterilized top soil. One pound of grass seed will be sufficient for about 300 square feet of new lawn. Mix thoroughly with .a shovel. Reseed the area sparingly by hand. (Only ,about 6 seeds per square inch will survive). After the seeds are sown, ;spray with a light mist of water. Be sure to keep seeded ,areas from drying out. If 'this happens the grass seed ;probably won't germinate. If the areas aren't too large, cover with sheets of polyethylene plastic that keep moisture in without constant sprinkling. 'Remove the sheets as soon as germination takes place to prevent destruction of seedlings. Mowing Give established lawns their first mowing as soon as the grass is dry enough to walk on. Regular mowing helps to maintain a dense turf and eliminate weeds. Most grass should not be cut much below 2 inches. Mow lawn in different directions each time it is cut and avoid mowing grass when wet. Dry grass cuts more easily and doesn't clog the mower. It also takes kers time. Watering As soon as the weather gets hot it'll be necessary to wa ter the lawn regularly. This is a dere that is often not taken seriously and is usually Large Discount Food Terminal Proposed by %tk*ael Erdle Officials of the Knob Hill Farms discount food store chain recently announced plans to build a new slo million food terminal in - Scarborough If the plan receives borough approval, the 200,000 square foot complex will become the company's flagship store, with office headquarters, two restaurants and an indoor man with a pumber of small convenience stores. The store, described by one planning board member as "a four- and a half -acre open space with a roof over it," will sit on a 12 -acre site at the south- east corner of McCowan Rd. and Eglinton Ave. Although nearby residents have already expressed fears that the food terminal will cause traffic problems in the area and will force many neighborhood supermarkets to shut down, company officials spent about an hour last Thursday trying to con- vince borough planners and planning board members that the development will be both a show -place for the com- pany and a credit to the community. Knob Hill Farms president Steve Stavro said the latest trend in the food retailing business is toward larger stores and many major chains are shutting their smaller outlets because they are not profitable enough. His company stresses bulk buying, he said, because lower handling costs result in lower prices for the consumer. He said the company particularly likes the McCowan -Eglinton site because it is nett to the CN rail line, which will allow therm to bring rail cars right into the food ter- minal, reducing prices by about five percent. Architect John Sullivan attempted to calm fears over predicted traffic problems by quoting a traffic consultant's report which shows that about 390 cars will visit the site during the peak rush-hour periods. He said half those cars would be on the toad woanyway, top amt the store use people on their way home and be quoted the consultant's conclusion that with proper access design, there would be no problems moving cars into and out of the site. The McCowan-Eghnton- Danforth area already has traffic problems and borough staff are currently exploring ways to remedy the situation. But some of the suggestions, such as a proposal to build a bridge over the Pringdale Ravine to make McCowan a through road from Lawrence to Eglinton, has raised a storm of con- troversy in the community. Mr. Sullivan estimated that the huge development would take about two years to build after the borough has issued all the necessary approvals. The first step in the long bureaucratic process will be for planning board to discuss the proposal as a policy matter, to decide 112 a ��� 1. • -1 111, '''111 done wrong. Sprinkling the surface from time to time with a hose is not only inadequate, but it can actually do a lot of harm. This kind of sporadic, in- sufficient watering en- courages root growth close to the surface and thus the grass can be injured by the sun and dry weather. It also promotes the growth of crabgrass and other weeds. A good soaking once a 'week is best. Water should ,penetrate the soil as much as 5 inches. To best achieve this, use a sprinkler that covers a rectangular or square area - the type that oscillates spraying from side to side. Although they are more costly at first, it will be well worth it. They save water and avoid the drying out of areas where circular sprinklers fail to overlap. And most of them can be set so they can cover either the full rectangle. a section of it or a smaller area, without oscillating. By adhering to these simple rules of proper lawn care you should notice a marked improvement and your lawn will be a source of pride and pleasure throughout the warm season. whether the proposed development is ap- propriate for the site. Planning staff are currently examining the proposal and studying company traffic and market surveys. No date has been set for the matter to come before planning board. Company officials said Thursday that the informal presentatiori to planning board and staff was made with the tope that boctxlgh officials would take the over-all concept of the development into account when they make their policy decision. Tips For Transplanting Trees Few gardening efforts bring returns as long- lasting as trees. Taking the time to select and plant them properly this spring will ensure years of en- joyment. -Recommendations for planting trees and shrubs have changed as a result of research,.' says Mr. Bob Fleming, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticulutrist. "Research now indicates that it is bet- ter to use the existing soil from the planting hole than to add purchased soil or organic material." The reports state that using the existing soil Graduates From NPC School Of Horticulture Tlionlas.lamcs Powers of ltillowdale received two awards at the graduation exercises at the Niagara Parks Commission School of Ilurt k-ulture tin Sat. illarch 1!1.

If the soil around the roots is higher in quality than the existing soil. the roots will tend to grow only in the richer soil and won't spread into the surrounding soil. Adding organic material, such as peat moss, to the planting hole is not recommended because the peat retains moisture to wet weather, which can drown the roots. In dry periods, the peat moss dries out and hardens, preventing water from mooching the roots. ..For best results dig the planting hole twice as wide and one and one-Inlf-times as deep as the root ball,.. says Mr. Fleming. "Use the existing topsoil around the roots and fill in the hole with the existing subsoil. Use leaves or peat moss as a mulch on the soil surface to conserve moisture. and stake the treetop to prevent wind damage. Wait until the second year to apply fertilizer. " Plant deciduous trees, sold bare root, before mid- May to provide the best growing conditions. Can- tainer-grown deciduous trees can be transplanted safely until the end of May or early June. .When selecting trees, many home gardeners choose taller, more mature trees to achieve instant results,., says Bob Fleming. "However, the results four or five years later don't justify the higher cost of the larger trees." Smaller trees stand a smaller risk of damage when you transplant them than the larger trees. And a 1.8-m (6 -ft. ) tree planted beside a 2.5-m (8 -ft. ) tree will be about the same size in four or five years. Once you have purchased your tree, protect its roots with a plastic bag, and wrap the top of the plant in burlap to prevent it from drying out on the trip home. Transplant the tree to its new location im- mediately, or heel the roots into moist soil in a protec, ted location until it is con- venient to transplant. Wed.

"I glum in the early summer with two sessions of coaching and other work it amounts to about three evenings per week and increases as the weekend of the Games approaches. " said Oxley. The Games provide a '-change of pace" for Oxley who enjoys working with the youngsters of Scarborough. "'Rtere is a certain amount of satisfaction in nuking it possible for People to take part,.. be said. "But it's a bell of a bt of work.'. Sorting through the seven binders fulled with Peace Games information. Oxley, 46. says .-there are enough good athletes in Scarborough to roll the team three times over and get good results. " Yet. the problem is that many of these athletes are involved with various Track clubs around the borough. .'They, in fact, don't want to break their training schedules or compete in an event that would conflict with something else that they are doing in the way of training," he said. Oxley maintains that this will be his last year organizing the Track and Field events but he says he will remain a competitor in the Games. Scarborough has won the Track and Field competition only one time in the seven year history of the Peace Games.

On April 22nd, the Honourable Frank Miller, Treasurer of Ontario introduced to the Legislature the 1980/81 Budget for Ontario. The policies outlined in the Budget will help to ensure econimic stability and prosperity for the citizens of this Province. It is easy to see from the Budget that Ontario is clearly committed to maintaining a secure foundation for in- dustrial expansion in the new decade. In the past year, industries that are critical to our economy, such as pulp and paper, automobile, textile, clothing and knitting industries, have all received necessary financial assistance through the Employment Development Fund to improve their competitive position.

In light of its success, the EDF program will continue to operate in the coming year, to allow for financing of urban transportation development and expansion of our ambitious manpower training program. Increased funding was announced in the Budget for the Ontario Youth Employment Program to provide an ad- ditional 10,000 summer jobs for youth in 1980, bringing the total to 75,000. Significant tax measures were introduced to help stimulate small businesses, research and development, mineral exploration, farming and energy conservation. Health expendutures will increase by more than $487 million this year, which is certainly proof that in Ontario, health care remains a priority item. It was pleasing to see that the Budget allows for the day care program assisting working mothers to be increased by 14%. Perhaps pensioners feel the pinch of inflation more than any others. For this reason, the Government of Ontario is extending relief from property and sales tax to pensioners through a direct rebate. Grants to a maximum of $500 will be directed to pensioners to offset their property taxes or rent, while a sales tax grant of $50 will be paid to pensioners receiving the Old Age Security pension. There will also be a substantial increase in GAINS assistance. Another very positive part of this new program is the fact that the grant will be paid in the current year, by cheque. It will not be necessary to wait until next year's income tax form. During the past four years, Premier Davis has led the Government through a tight spending restraint program. Just as each individual must act in a responsible manner when it comes to managing personal finances, so too has the Government of Ontario been committed to carrying out a mandate of prudent management of the taxpayers money. As a result of this policy, the Treasurer was able to an- nounce that even with all the foregoing stimulants, there will be NO TAX INCREASE IN ONTARIO THIS YEAR. This welcomed announcement stems dnrectly from the responsible and dedicated efforts of every person in on- tano. Ontario's outstanding quality of life and sound financial position are the results of the collective hard work ethics and thrift values of the people and businesses in this Province. I personally think we all deserve a pat on the back for our collective contribution to Ontario's economy. Scott Fennell MP Ontario Speaking To You Finally our government has mustered up some courage and joined the rest of the civilized wand on the Olympic boycott mue. Last January, the C neervabve Party firmly said no to Soviet aggression in Afgharustan and did not hesitate to side with the United States an this basic matter of principle. Rather than continue this unapologetic and enthusiastic stand for democracy, Pierre Tlrudeaw erose to dither away an the boycott for months. Now, rekx tantty, be has Canada join with 36 other committed nations in boycotting the Morcow Games. What enraged me. and many other Canadians, was the way the Prime Minister de iberately bemmed and hawed on this vital position. It was not a case of his foreign policy being incompetent or unplanned. He knew precisely what his delays wee duwng to other world leader, leaders like Margaret Thatcher. Malcolm Fraser, Jimmy Carter. Tnudeau was purposely serving notice to the Soviet Union and the Third Wald that Canada will waver before siding with the States on something as hmdamental and important as a united front against Communist expsmon. I was newer more proud to be a Conservative than I was last winter when Joe Clark stood up for this world's most enduring example of liberty and democracy. We were developing a fair foreign policy. One that was represen- tative of the best Canadians have to offer the globe. It was reflected by our immediate response to the Soviet invasion A Afghanistan and by the Canadian Caper in Iran. As an opposition MP I now sit in the House of Commons rand watch Pierre Teudeau give smug answers to honest luesbons from Flora MacDonald. Consistently, day after lay, she has exposed T rudeau's foreign policy for what it s: an intellectually bankrupt, out of date, left leaning hypocrisy - It's a pleasure to watch Flora at wet but I much preferred her as Minister of External Affairs. Perhaps he'll get another chance one day. Until thein, Canada's a'eign policy will not be one I can respect. o Fitness is a national issue. Vie call it Body Pblitics. Paanaparnon tea.
