May 21, ION PIRINOG ri. Won't Change , Town Election System The Pickering Executive Committee has decided not to bring a proposal before town council which would do away with ward representation in election of Pickering councillors to Durham Council. Councillor Laurie Cahill who plans to run for Regional Council in the fall had asked the committee to consider replacing the ward system for regiowl representatives but retaining it for town councillors. At present, a regional comncillw is elected from each of the three Pickering wards and serves both at regional council as wen as on the local town council. Many rural residents were against this new change, because they feared that they would lose a say in regional govern- ment. Mr. G. Burgess, chairman of the Pickering Coalition of Community Associations, which represents some rural ratepayer groups, said, "this proposal is a retrograde step, ap- parently designed to remove council further from the people they are paid to represent."

May 21,1990 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Awareness This week is being celebrated as "Awareness Week for the Disabled" and it behooves all of us who are physically fit to try and tune in on those other folk in our community who have a handicap. The first thing to learn, as Beryl Potter of the Scarborough Recreation Club for Disabled Adults says is: "I would like to help the public to understand and accept us, not as the poor, handicapped, but as warm human beings with a deep desire to live and love, to work and play, and above all, to have that love and respect returned, to be seen through the eyes of a babe, not for what we have lost or failed to receive, but for what we have, and are capable of giving.,, As Beryl points out, everyone has a disability of some nature, but those who are unable to recognize this, turn their disabilities into handicaps. Another recent statement on a radio commercial tells an important point - your attitude to the disabled is one of the biggest handicaps to the disabled.

Initial savings can be achieved by orienting houses to face north -south. and by placing large windows on the south side of buildings. Further savings can be achieved by the use of night shutters and by the use of masonry walls or floors (i.e. large areas of thermal mass) that absorb the sun's ethergy during the day,and return it to the bvtmg space at night. The study also found that passive solar heating systems are considerably more cost-effective than active solar bating systems. This repot, Residential Passive Solar Heating — Review and Development of Design Aids, was prepared for the Ontario Ministry of Energy by Okins, Leipciger, QW11n- skas, Kaminker and Associates Limited of Toronto. Passive solar heating has become more popular recently as a relatively low-cost means of making new buildings more energy efficient. In a true passive solar beating system, hat is collected directly from tbesun without use at mechanical devices. This report looks at the potential for passive solar heating systems in Ontario. It also repot on a design aid, complete with an example of potential savings using a typical two- starey Canadian home. The design aid will be verified through field demon- strations and modified, if Becessmy. as part of the ongoing wort of the Ministry of Energy. The Ministry of Energy recently announced that it will finance a SM.000. Ontario -wide competition to encourage the design and construction of energy efficient housing incorporating passive solar energy features. This report, along with another publication. Builders Guide to Energy Efficiency in New Housing. will provide useful information for those interested in entering the competition. 11,000 In Linkage More than I LOW secondary- school students have enrolled in the Training Credit System, the Ministries of Education/Colleges and Universities announced today. The Training Credit System commonly called Linkage, enables students to receive recognition towards provincial trade certification for secondary school technical education courses. Eight occupations in the program are general machinists, lmdus%tiul millwright, construction millwright, baker, cook, hairstylist, retail meat cutter and major ap- pliance repair technician. Other occupations. including motor vehicle mechanic, will be added. Since September. 1979, 114 secondary schools have agreed to participate in the Linkage program, as of Feb. 19, 1960, 11,422 students were enrolled. Of the total, 8,843 or 77 per cent are enrolled in the general machinist program. As part of a secondary school technical course, a student may acquire the skills and knowledge normally taken during the basic in -school period of apprenticeship. For example, certification as a general machinist requires 6,000 hours or three years of training - 30 months on the job and six months at a College of Applied Arts and Technology ( CART ). The training at a CAAT is split into three two- month terms - Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. A secondary school student can complete the entire basic term while in secondary school. Linkage offers several advantages to students. The PICKERING no p o s f Published every Wednesday by Watson Publishing Company Limited, Est. 1950 Postal Address: Box 111. Agincourt, Ont.

May 21, IM Bill Watt's World ON STAGE When someone other than a professional story teller, recounts a funny incident, it frequently loses something in the telling. When that happens, the raconteur usually says "You hadda be there". We find ourselves in somewhat the same position in an attempt to describe Spring Thaw which is the current attraction at the Royal Alex. To appreciate it to the fullest, you have to be there. And ... you gotta be a Canadian. Oh, some of the sketches have, we're sure, universal appeal but, for the most part, they are filled with humorous references that are distinctly Canadian. Only a Canadian would appreciate the sketch Highlights In The Life Of Joe Clark, a number that lasts about 15 seconds and has no one on stage. What about Uncola in which Margaret Trudeau is likened to the popular soft drink ... part sweet and part tart? The Rain Song is a dubious but hilarious salute to the joys of dan- cing in acid rain. The next to closing number is titled A Canadian Spiritual and is a paeon to the of lotteries. Promised joys Among the numbers with universal appeal. we recommend Assembly Line which is a beautiful send up of A Chaos Line rwith high eplete line workers dressed in gold lame. There are 34 numbers in all poking fun at such Canadian as Trudeau naturally ) . our Olympic efforts. Tom Thomson. Stratford, Civil Servants. the Pax Office. Canadian Pacific and Air Canada. Leading[ the attack is a sextet of attractive and talented performers each of whom is worthy of in- dividual stardom. Mary Ann McDonald looks a little like Julie Andrews and is the possessor of a rich, dramatic voice. Brenda Bradley is a gorgeous blonde who lights up the stage merely be gracing it. Rosemary Radcliffe with her Mimi Hines delivery amuses as always. In fact, she nearly breaks up the show close to the end with her delivery of what might or might not be an ad lib or started out as one. Ifyou've seen the show, you'll know what we mean. If you haven't, you'll know it when you hear it. Marvin Karon has a Bill Murray sort of dead pan delivery and Patrick Young again evinces envy over a young man who is so handsome and so talented. His recounting of Bushings in biblical terms should be recorded for posterity. Completing the roster is a face that is new to us. We mean Paul Brown. Imagine if you can. Nor- man Fell (Mr. Roper) wearing glasses and carrying less weight. Got it? Alright then, picture him singing. dancing. cracking wise and delivering beautifullv timed monologues. That's Paul Brown. We apologize if we should have known him previously but we hasten to repair by sinning that be is one of the freshest talents we've encountered for some time now. And Spring Thaw is a wonderfully fresh show. In tad. it should really be retitled Spring Tonic. AT THE CLUBS Paul Williams is at the Imperial Roan until the end of the week and if You W 1 ould you tike to be don't get down to see him you'll be missing a great show. Have an idea that we might have already said this about the diminutive entertainer but it bears repeating; Oscar Levant once remarked that an evening with George Gershwin is an evening with George Gershwin. So it is with Paul Williams. An evening with him is like an evening with no other entertainer. For one thing he just doesn't look like a supper club performer. He is short and a little tubby. His eyesight is not apparently good and he has a mop of hair like an overgrown Little Lord Fauntleroy. Yet, such is the beauty of his songs and such is the artistry of his presentation that he can reduce you to tears of poignancy. Yes, yes. I know of my reputation as the Leaky Jack of the Fifth Estate but I wasn't the only one wiping away a stray tar at his opening night. And. I wasn't the only one laughing uproarknuly at his original humour. The man is quote simplychche time caning up and we don't care - a bundle of talent. As well as his talent he has brought along some of his own musicians and some great charts for the augmented Howard Cable orchestra. There are three good back up singers as well. One of thein is named Gene Nelson. It could just be the power at suggestme but he looks as though he might be the son of Gene Nelson who used to dance in all those old Doris Day musicals.

The news is good for the many homeowners in Ontario Riding but mortgage rates are still at record levels. I intend to keep fighting for some form of mortgage relief from the government. This is one Conservative policy I wouldn't mind seeing the Liberals steal. But it appears increasingly likely that this new Liberal government will not be moving to help Canada's overburdened middle class. Instead, the government intends to increase transfer payments to non-productive members of our society. We all agree that the needy members of our society, people who can't fend for themselves, [teed financial assistance from others. But I'm becoming increasingly concerned over the way the wealth producers in Canada are being taken for granted. For more than a decade the middle class and the small business sector of our economy has financed the increasingly generous and numerous social benefit schemes available to laver income Canadians. Invariably these programs are inefficiently administered and their effectiveness is further diluted by Liberal patronage. Time and time again the Auditor General points out the extravagant waste in all federal departments and time and time again the government ignores his recommendations.

' Record Care Here is some professional advice, helpful for private collections as well: keep records out of the sun; keep records out of hot cars, particularily off the car's back window shelf; give 'play' in storage areas; don't pack records in tightly. Store in an even, moderate temperature; avoid touching the playing surface; replace records in jackets immediately after use. Keep jackets clean and dry; velvet pads for cleaning are good only if changed frequently - otherwise they become just another dust distributor; tap water (distilled water is preferred by pruists) and a lint -free cloth are best for cleaning, sprays have a tendency to build up; keep long-haired pets away from the machine. Recordings are highly magnetic while playing. Wed. May 21,1980 THE NEWSIPOST Pthge 8 corn becomes high art.

Bonnie Walsh, Carol Martin. Diane McLellan and Judy Haladay have key roles. Just Around The Corner Last week we went to two musical shows and enjoyed both of them immensely - They were very different from each other in more ways than one but inboth cases we were iMpressed by the high calibre of performance. I have said it ma times before, but to repeat; there is an awful lot of talented people 1n these parts. THE BOY FRIEND This 1920's musical hit was ressurected and printed at The Fairview library Theatre by Stage Centre Productions. With the deft dbvctorul hand of L. Garth Allen it opened aver a .reek ago as �ul ted on. highly To rate thk shows that this company have performed this season w am be un- fair. They have all been excellent so suffice it to say that this is another out- standing show, well up to the high standards that we have corse to expect. As usual, Garth has dressed the show in a superb and colourful manner. The three sets are designed with flair, colour and from an actor's potint of view they are workable. The costumes are ex - tremely gay and flattering and appear to be tailor- made for each one of the 17 asci Stag�Etha%twThe inns are to be cornrnended As with the scenery and costumes, it was necessary that the music transmit the atmosphere of the 2D's. The eleven piece orchestra (The Beorcats) include a three-way sax section, a banjo annd a vwhn. As soon as It hit the first chola in the overture, for those of us who remember. there was the true nostalgic scud d the hotel bands that we listened to an our crystal sets. To Peter Wall, the musical director goes a tip of the fedora for recap- turing the sound. He must have spent hourslisteni— to old recordings for he is too y to have heard it for real Peter, is was worth it. With that sort of back-up the cast just had to be good. And it was. The show is extremely fast moving and vigorous and just watching it almost exbausted me. But the actors sang old danced with enthusiasm throughout and appeared to be enjoying every minute d it.

If you are a fan a( the 'Mistress of Mystery will be better able to enjoy the play. If not you may find that it bogs down at times and that the characters are unreal. You have to understand that Agatha liked all of her characters to be perfect ladies and gent emen. Even the villains were extremely couth. All the women should be cahste and demure and all the men gallant and polite. The plot. of course, in- volves a murder. The murder of the man who broke up thepprevious marriage of Clarissa's ( Barbara Hanna) husband, Henry ( R.Allan Scuda more) . Henry was portrayed quite well as a stuffy civil servant but I did not feel that Clarissa was flighty enough to be a lady whose imagination was such that she con- stantly invented lies and could hardly be believed. The victim, Oliver Costello ( Daniel Sampson) became an American gangster type, not in the Christie style Every one in the play becomes a suspect. & It Clarissa's guardian, Sir Rowland (Derek M.

Ms. Hut- chinson appeared to be very secretive and mysterious, just as she should be. George Neill Kennedy directed the play and also played the very demanding role of the local Police Inspector.

The 40 year old part owner of a painting and decorating business has only been playing tennis for the past six years. '.Actually I never played tennis while in Australia" she said. "You Canadians taught me everything I know." Last year while competing at the Scarborough Bluffs Tennis Club, "Jac" completed a -Triple Crown" sweep by winning the singles• doubles and mixed doubles events at the Club Championships. In her first ever Peace Games, Mrs. George won both her singles and mixed doubles matches in the over 33 category but found the competition was not as tough as she had ex- pected. "It was not a walkover", said Mrs. George, who has lived in Canada for the past 13 years. **In our matches, however, we did not have too much trouble." With the help of "Jac" George, Scarborough defeated Indianapolis by a 352 - 296 score in last year's games. Last year was the second time Scarborough has won the overall Peace Games competition in seven years. Jacynth George believes the Peace Games have served their purpose in promoting international friendship. "We correspond with the billet who stayed at our house and my daughter writes to one of the boys down there and if I'm lucky enough to go to Indianapolis I would like to visit them.' The Scarborough Tennis team is chosen on the basis of how the individuals fare in series of tournaments during the year while the Indianapolis squad is selected as a result of one qualifying tournament. Mrs. George hopes she can continue to play well this year in order to earn herself a berth on the 1980 Peace Games tennis team. The "Games" are slated for Indianapolis August 8 - loth. applied either the tree or the grass, or both, suffer. The best way to ensure proper feeding of both the grass and the tree for trees) according to the C -1- L gardening experts is to feed the lawn with Golfgreen at to lbs. per 1000 sq. ft., and then im- mediately apply Tree & Hedge Feeder on the lawn under the spread of the branches and water in well.

Evergreen and most deciduous trees and shrubs should not be fed after July 15th, but may be fed with Winterizer in late August. feed Lawns Early Mast lawns are underfed according to gardening experts in the lawn and garden section of C -I -L agricultural chemicals division. This applies particularly m arty spring. Grass is essentially a cool season crop, growing best in spring, late summer and early fall. Grass begins to grow in the spring almost as soon as the frost is out of the ground and needs food long before the soil has warmed up sufficiently to release the food it contains. A lawn should be given its first feeding as soon as the snow is gone and the grand is firm enough to walk on. C -I -L gardening experts recommend Golfgreen. ls- 6-9, for this fust feeding of the year. What do these numbers mean in a fertilizer with an 18-6-9 analysis? These numbers may be tran- slated directly into pounds of plant food. For example, loo pounds of 1969 fertilizer has 18 pounds of nitrogen, 6 pounds of phosphate and 9 Each ¢f potash. rat of a fertilizer is put there for a purpose. Nitrogen provides the food for plant size and rate of growth, and helps develop the deep green color home owners want in their lawns. Phosphate is important to the growth points of the plant and helps establish new roots, rhizomes and crowns. Potash helps maintain the plant in good health and helps it to absorb plant food. Potash also enables the plant to survive better through drought periods. The C -I -L Lawn & Garden Guide contains easy step- by-step instructions on how to care for your lawn all summer.

Ontario has had an Ombudsman since 1975. That was the year the Ontario Legislature passed The Om- budsman Act, which among other things states that the Ombudsman is to be appointed by the Legislature and is accountable directly to the Legislature, rather than through a Ministry of the Government. Once a year the Ombudsman submits a formal report to the Legislature on his work, and this report is reviewed by an all -party Committee of the Legislature, known as the Select Committee on the Om- budsman. In the course of running any government, there are bound to be times when some citizens feel they have been treated unfairly. Their complaints may arise through some action that has been taken (or neglected) by any branch of the Government, elected or appointed. Sometimes complaints are balked on simple misun- derstandings of government procedures or individual rights. Other cases arise from serious injustices that should be remedied. Whatever the cause, people's complaints deserve consideration. In Ontario, complaints about the Provincial government may be investigated by the Om- budsman. Under the power given to him by the Legislature, the Ombudsman and his staff can investigate your complaint thoroughly and weigh all the relevant facts impartially. if one of his recommendations is i®Itored by a branch of the Provincial government, he can take the matter to the Premier or the Legislature. In other words, he can use a lot of persuassion in the rightplaces. There are some kinds of problems the Ombudsman cannot deal with. For instance, being an Ontario official, he cannot deal with federal matters (such as postal service or unemployment insurance cheques), or municipal govern- h..

Mayor Dusty Miller would like as many former residents as possible to contact her at Tlnurnder Bay City Hall by mail. A formal invitation along with details of the event will be sent in return.

Some provincial matters too, are necessarily beyond his power, such as courts and judges, Even so, the Ombudsman's work does encompass a wide range of concerns such as workmen's compensation, OHIP, family benefits, retail sales tax, and many others. If you have an unresolved complaint and aren't sure whether it falls within the Ontario Ombudsman's scope of duties, it is a good idea to inquire anyway. Someone of the Ombudsman's staff will tell you whether he can be of service in your case. It's best to think of the Ombudsman as a last resort, the person who tries to help you after all other approaches have failed. You may file a complaint with his office by telephone letter or personal visit, to the Office of the Ombudsman, 6th floor, 65 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario M511 2M5 (8694M). If the Ombudsman urmdigates a complaint for you, he will provide you with a complete report, regardless of the outcome of this investigation, there is no fee charged. And you can be sure that no matter what the complaint, it will be received in confidence, as a private matter between you and the Ombudsman. The Ombudsman's office is open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, but you can telephone at any hour and leave a message. A staff member will get back to you as quickly as possible. The office of the Ombudsman has been set up by the On- tario Legislature to protect and defend your rights. if all other avenues have failed, take your complaint or problem to him. Improved Safety For Baby Cribs The Consumer and Cor- porate Affairs Depart- ment's recent amendments to the Hazardous Products Act should reduce deaths and injuries associated with crib and cradles. The new regulations require that the spacing between the slats or bars of cribs be no greater than 2- 3/8 inches (6 centimetres). This reduction from 3-1/8 inches (8 centimetres), which became effective on February 23, 1960, brings Canadian standards into line with U.S. regulations established in 1974. In 1973, it was felt that the 3-1/8 inch restriction would eliminate deaths, which had occurred when the wider slat spacings allowed the child's body to pass thorough but not the bead, resulting in strangulation. However four accidents have since been reported in Canada, where the child's torso slipped through the 3- 1/8 inch space. For- tunately. the infants were rescued in time. Since the slat spacing was limited to 2-3/8 inches in the U .S., no fatalities of this nature have been reported. All cribs and cradles now being sold in Canada should comply with the new regulations. However, the federal Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs cautions parents to check the spacing between bars on used cribs or cradles. Instructions for modifying older cribs and cradles can be obtained by contacting Consumer Services, Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada, 25 St. Clair Avenue East, Toronto, Ontario, M4T IM2.
