June 11, 1980 PICKERING Ara -0 Sf The needs of commuters living east of Pickering can easily be accommodated by existing rail lines. That's the conclusion of a report prepared by Ontario Riding MP Scott Fennell. During the last federal election campaign Fennell stated that it was economically practical to extend GO Transit rail services to Oshawa. He promised to make his GO alternative available to any level of government that was interested. GO Rail presently stops at Pickering and residents of Ajax. Whitby and Oshawa must use a GO bus systema to connect with the Pickering station. GO Rail extension has been an idea kicked about for sometime. It has been neglected for two main reasons ac- cording to Fennell. Use Existing Rail Lines - MP First the more than $50 million cost estimated, without a study, by CN and secondly the political concern that easier access to Toronto will help make Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa "bedroom communities." Fennell feels his report demonstrates the required capital expenditure would be dramatically less than the existing estimate - total cost for the project could be as little as $1 million - if GO train services beyond Pickering were made available only during the 6:30 - 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 - 6:30 p.m. rush hour periods - "As political op- position to extended GO Rail, I feel it is dwindling,,, Fennell says. "Rising energy costs have made Opposition to urban transit foolish... "I don't buy the argument that we should prevent Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa from becoming bedroom communities. To a major extent they already are. Besides, it shouldn't be the role of government to prevent or encourage that sort of thing," he says. "These communities provide affordable housing for people employed in Toronto." In Oshawa there has been some reluctance to promote GO Rail extension, because of the possible effect on the auto industry. Fennell has ignored this concern in his report. "Even Ed Broadbent (MP - Oshawa ) is promoting eastern GO Rail. He wants to extend the service to Bowmanville or even further. " "A decade ago a strong lobby group in Oshawa, run by the Oshawa Plaza owners, did its best to rur IV01 Nr There is some possibility a recreation complex may be built in Pickering by next year following a decision by Pickering Council to look into construction of such a facility. The town is hiring the prevent GO from moving east,,, Fennell says. "They were concerned about getting a viable enterprise off the ground with an assured clientele." The report advocates using existing rail lines with some diversion of freight trains to make way for clear commuter rail. Fennell's proposal will require some co-ordination between CN and CP. A copy of the report is at- tached. .'I.m not pretending this is an absolute answer," Fennell says. "What I am presenting is a new option, a new direction for our future GO Transit discussions." Fennell has sent copies of his report to the federal Minister of Transport, CN, CP, Durham West MPP George Ashe, Oshawa MP Ed Broadbent and Durham Regional Council. consultants of Beddall Shukla and Partnership to develop a prelimenary design for the town recreation complex. Pickering already has $100,000 allocated for the complex, and if the initial design is approved con- struction of the first phase could begin in 1981. Most councillors expect the recreation complex to be built in the town centre designated area, but Councillor Don Kitchen, has suggested a Liverpool Rd. site just north of Finch Ave. since the gown owns the land. Only five of the required 14 acres at the town centre are owned by the town. Mr. Kitchen calls the Liverpool site a naturally attractive one while the town centre would be a rectangular grey, and unattractive" site. But Councillor Doug Dickerson says the town is committed to the town centre facility and it can obtain the needed land through its dedication agreement with the developer of the town centre land by exchanging town land. a Woodlands Centennial Public School senior wrestling team Among those on the team wv , r. - First How, left to right (,"-h 1,- ! c .

June 11, 1980 Opinion a page for expression for you and us What Is A Nation? By Bob Watson This week our various federal and provincial leaders met in Ottawa about our constitution. Mr. Trudeau, whose whole object in life appears to be to make a new constitution which builds in the French language equal to English, announced that if he got his wish, he would consider retiring from the top job. This, he added, would give incentive for the premiers to get the job done! As a fifth generation Canadian, this writer cannot come to grip with the provincial jealousies and cravings for power. Although I was born in Ontario, I newer felt like an "On- tarioan" but just a Canadian and I was as proud of the Maritimes equally as I was of Alberta. Lately, one wonders what has dappeaed to other Canadians. Don't they feel proud of this fabulous land, where it is a joy to be born, compared to anywhere else in the world? Frankly, I used to be troubled that our coonstitution was still in the hands of the British Parliament, but now I have come to believe that nationality is not what is written, but what is in the hearts of its citizens. Surely, the average Canadian wants conditions where we can all equally (as possible) share in the wealth, resources of the whole country, as well as accept the casts and responsibilities of a nation. Politicians are missing a glorious chance to unify and stimulate nationalism if they press home their petty provincial views at these continuing talks. 011111111111110 . � � � ... � Bob's Notes GALLIANO TIME Recently we were very !osmate to be invited to a press reception by the people who sell Galliano - the ingredient which makes a Harvey Waffbanger what it is. The event took place at Sparkles. high up in the CN Tower. Besides meeting the local distributors plus the company's rep. from New York City. we were all given some very interesting Wallbanger goodies. There is the T-shirt which has the formula for a wallbanger written on the chest, a very neat tanque in yellow, white and red which says "Harvey Wallbr►nger. I Can Be Made", bright yellow braces for balding up your pants plus three little recipe books, all using Galliano, of course! Some interesting facts: Liquore Galliano sells 148,000 full size and halt bottles in Ontario each year. The name was taken from Major Guamppe Galliano, who fought o ver- whelmwg odds in the Etbopian war for Italy. He held off thousands trying to take Fort Enda Josue. Harvey Wallbangers came from the Go's in California when Harvey who was a surfer. hit the bars from his hard day on the beach and asked for his favourite drink, the Italian screwdriver with a splash at Galliano on top. The wallbanger part cones from his tipsiness and hitting the walls when he had imbibed too much. HISTORY IN GREE -N -WOOD Sun. June 1st. Lieut -Gov, Pauline McGibbon officially opened the old Greenwood School House Library in Pickering. The old school has been very neatly converted to a library and stands beside a mare modern school high on a hill in Greenwood just east of the museum. One of the oldest citizens of Greenwood, Miss Mary B. owvn, who went to the old school as a girl. was present tow. Ap- parently it was revealed that John Diedenbakex's father taught at this school (he did get around) and John, himself, as a four year old, went to the school for a short period of time. PLANNING WITH WIMBS Scarborough Alderman Jahn Wimbs, who recently went to a planning conference in San Francisco, is going to shown coloured slides on the redevelopment areas in that city at the meeting hall of the Scarborough Civic Centre on Thurs. June 12th at 1:30 p.m. The public is invited toattend. LOOKING FOR JOBS According to statistics provided by a career service, less than five percent of all students cite interest in the 70M job choices available in Canada. In other words, the youth of Candia have little or no idea of the number of job op- portunities available to them.

"Consumers get a better break because we are in- dependent" says Knob Hill Farms president, Steve Stavro, who adds that competition keeps the prices down. The proposed outlet at Eglinton Ave. E. and McCowan Rd. would be a very large store, and include the head office for Knob Hill Farms, as well as other retailers in the building. The company introduced the bulk display and case lot purchase concept to the retail food industry by providing a complete line of brand merchandise and expanding its Markham outlet. By purchasing directly for delivery to the store for large volume sales, Knob Hill Farms has been able to remove the need for central warehousing and cut the hardhag costs, passing the savings on to the consumer. Each outlet of the chain is a regional facility, serving about five tithes the number of consumers that other large supermarkets serve. Besides attracting comparison shoppers, Knob Hill Farms maintains a large international foods section which caters to people from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds. According to Mr. Stavro, most of his stoppers shop once or twice a month and stock up on the values and bulk price Purchases offered. Brand names are labelled on each section and the meat section is large (see photo above) with meat coming straight to the counters. Fresher fruits and vegetables are offered because of the fast handling of the slog goods. TheKnob Hill Farms business started in 1930 when the father of the present president. the late Atanas Stavro, opened a small store in the east end of Toronto. This grew into ten small markets, but in the 1%0's, a better way to serve the large family was sought and the food terminal concept was born. Scarborough May Operate Rouge Valley Ski Centre by Rita Daly A proposal to have Scarborough take over operation of the Range Valley Ski Area is too costly a venture and should be scrapped Controller Brian Harrison said last His comments came shortly before Board of Control voted to pay MOW for a private consultant's feasibility study of the proposal. recommended by Recreation and Parks Commissioner Bruce Fleury. Said Harrison, -I don't think we need a consultant to tell us whether this is economically feasible, and I don't think we should take this on." The ski area will become "just a white elephant and a waste of taxpayers money-" Les Shaw Benefit On Sunday The Les Shaw Benefit Fund is holding a hockey game on Sun. June 15th at 2 p.m. at Art Thompson Arena between the Central Ontario Over 50 Years Old team and the Durham Region Sr. A. Selects. The oldsters recently won the North American Sr. Olympic gold medal held in Santa Rose, California and earlier in the year won the international cup in Scotland. Scarborough residents on this team include Bobby Burns, Bobby MacIntyre, Blair Jarvis and Frank Remmer. Randy Ellis, father of Ron Ellis, is also playing in the game and Red Garvele, one of the 1948 World Olympic champs will also be a star in the game. Admission is $2 for adults and $1 for children. After the game socializing will take place at the Bay Ridges Legion, which is open to 8 p.m. He also stated the Borough has enough ex- pertise in their own staff to study the proposal which he predicted would cost as inn , as $15,000 to bring the ski centre up to normal facility standards. Scarborough was asked n+ecen►tly by Metro Toronto to assume responsibility for the financially -troubled ski centre located south of Twvn Rivers Dr. on the east branch of the Rouge River, which would allow Metro to expand its cross- country skiing facilities in various Metro parks. The Rouge Valley ski area. maintained by the Metro Parks Department since 19M but operated privately, has undergone continuous financial set- backs as a result of unreliabie snow conditions. Metro has stated unless Ministry Awards $1.1 Million The Ministry of Health has awarded $1,176.335 to 32 health research programs in Metro Toronto. The grants are among 104 awards amounting to $3.2 million atmounced for health research programs in nine Ontario centres, inchidi;ng Guelph, Hamilton, Kingston, London, Ottawa, Penetanguishene, Sudbury and Waterloo. In Metro, the Clarke Institute has been awarded $38,447; The Hospital for Sick Children $101,001; Mount Sinai Hospital $146,014; the Ministry of Health's Laboratory Services Branch $108,718; the Ontario Interagency Council on Smoking and Health $5,150; the Ontario Cancer Institute $79,010; and the University of Toronto s697,995. Announcing the awards, Health Minister Dennis Timbrell said they will finance clinical research for the prevention, cure and management of disease, evaluative studies of health care services and research for the prevention and early detection of health problems. "By strengthening the public bealth sector, we hope to encourage people to adopt healthier lifestyles by smoking less, for example, and by eating more nutritiously," Mr. Timbrell said. "Public health grants will be used to evaluate health care generally and to develop the skills of health professionals. They will also be used for studies into the care of the elderly, the provision of mental health services, and ways to improve dental health." Today's grants were recommended by three independent committees of health professionals and are effective from April 1, 1980 to March 31, 1981. In addition to the $3.2 million announced today, six grants amounting to $237,588, were awarded to public health research in March, 1980, and are effective for the same period.

The fire is There were no injuries. Scarborough decides to take over operations, the ski centre would be closed down and the structures demolished. In a report to Scar- borough's Recreation and Parks Committee, Fleury indicated the Borough could maintain the facility until the establishment of a major downhill ski centre at the nearby Beare Road landfill site, projected to begin operations in 1984. But he told Board of Control members last week environment and con- sultant studies still in process may suggest a further postponement of the completion date. He noted, "Until that time, with the closing of the Rouge Valley facility, no reasonable downhill skiing opportunity will exist in northeastern Metropolitan Toronto. - Fleury also said the proposal was "a tremendous opportunity to train our own staff in operations" in preparation of the Beare Road ski centre, and supported Metro's move towards cross-country skiing ac- tivities. A consultant study would report on the physical corr►ditions of the plant at the Rouge Valley site, prepare cost estimates for repairs and operation of the facility, and list any future uses for the centre when the Beare Road ski centre is completed. The Borough has already received verbal approval for a Wintario grant covering half the costs of the consultants fees, Fleury said. Controller Joyce Trimmer spoke favorably of the proposal, as did Controller Frank Faubert who suggested more frequent public transit service Proposed by the Toronto Transit Commission would draw more skiers, par- ticularly younger ones, to the area in the future. �.�...... ._.,...., ...._....,._,....a.�,....:.....__..�...:....,..t:a•.,-.�•.�.�....�... _..�._ __. _......... w�....�.mow-�....�...r:.-�-,.........., >�., .... , _ • __ . _ .,, --- TheHon.

She has raised three children, has many outside activities, and participates in community projects. She likes to entertain, and t0 spend money on fash- ionable clothes. But these days, Dianne K avoiding her friends and finding more and more excuses to stay home. Dianne has gained 25 pounds. She is sick of looking at herself in the mirror, and every once in a while she has to pretend that she doesn't look all that bad. But her reflection is fat- For some time now, Dianne has been saying, "I've got to lose weight." She knows that when she makes up her mind to do it, she can lou the weight anytime. Well, it's been a year since the weight we. on. There is a vacation in the Bahamas staring her in the face, and she is still thinking about going on a diet "soon". She's fat, panic-stricken, and she could lou 25 pounds tomorrow if only .. . If only what? Despite the deep dissatisfaction with herself, how can it be that Dianne can't find motivation to lou weight? She has spent 52 weeks dazed, confused, unhappy, and reaching for food, and 52 :more of the same are coming up. You know Dianne. She is your friend or your relative or your mother. Maybe she's you. Two pounds became 25 when Dianne wasn't looking. She doesn't think in terms of having gained weight. To her, it's more a case of weight having somehow attached itself to her. Now what? While it is true that the "time has to be right" to lou weight successfully, the right time never seems to come for people like Dianne. Why does she stay fat? Is she waiting for iife to get a little easier first? Is it that she doesn't really comprehend what has happened so that it is next to impossible to begin a remedy? Or is it that she hasn't truly grasped that her weight will not look after itself? Body weight fluctuates. How much it fluctuates depends on how much food is eaten and on how much energy is expended. Dianne is fat because she eats too much of the wrong foods. And she'll stay fat as long as she continues to do so. Unhappily, she will continue to do so. But why? We have answers for people who come to us for help. But there are so many who never consider losing weight beyond wishing it would disappear. What keeps that wish unfulfilled? Either Dianne is happy being fat or she is not. If she's not happy with it, why does she stay that way? Why does Dianne stay fat? We'd like to hear from you if you are, perhaps, a "Dianne". If you would like to come in for a free consul- tation and weigh in with no obligation to join, call or write for the location nearest you.

Last week I was telling you about the Scarborough Dukes of Harmony. They are the 118 -man singing group that walked off with the World Championship. Unfortunately the space allotted in the paper didn't quite fit our column, so I 't get to tell you that the 'Dukes' will be off again in July. This time they are going to Salt Lake City to try for that World Title again. And this is one Crow that will be rooting for you fella's. A NEW GROUP IS BORN. I went up to the Fairview Library Theatre last Wednesday for the opening performance of "You Can't `fake It With You". This was the first show given by The Victoria Players and I must say that it showed a lot of promise. Some of the actors in the cast were obviously ex- perienced and I learned float for some it was their very first show. Con- sidering this and also considering that there was an obvious case throughout of First Night Jitters, they did give a creditable performance. They had some problem finding the rhythm of the piece and loss of lines plagued them a couple of times in the second and last act but despite these shortcomings the almost full house en - uI:yyed themselves and ghed in all the right places. The play has become vintage Broadway and I doubt that the younger members of the audience fully realize why it was such a hit. And why was it considered off -beat? In 1936 we had not yet heard the phrase, 'Do Your Own Thing'. The Sycamore family and the others that lived in their home were away abad of their time. They were too sophisticatedhipptioes dliesibad be not beenavented yet. But then 'Grandpa' was moderately wealthy. He had Four Grand a year coming in from in- vestments and anyone with Sao a week income was almost a times ahead of the This play has 19 characters and the en- trances and wits and other cues mull be dead on. I felt that this one was a little too ambitious for an opener. hardest of theprobably toto master. With a cast this large it is impassible to comment on them all, but Andy Knott, Roy Bennett, Cy Beard, Kevin Russell and Sara McKerrow seemed to be very sure of themselves and gave excellent per- formances. Sara was also responsible for the set design that was of exceptional design but could have been a little sturdier. I know something of the problems that went on in getting this production on the boards and knowing that I was more than gratified with the eveinng. The group has talent. The group has enthusiasm and spirit and that means that next season we can look forward to some very rewarding evenings by the Victoria Players. A special hurrah for Valerie Fiedler, the founder of the group, for her tireless work and wonderful spirit. The show only ran for four nights so you will have to wait until the fall. FOR ART LOVERS A by Gordon Ashberry group of friends of the late A.F.W. Plumptre, Prin- cipal of Scarborough College from 1965 to 1972, have donated to the College a collection of prints by Canadian artists. The work of eleven artists who are important in the development of the various graphic media in Canada since 1950 were chosen for inclusion. Of particular importance is a lithograph, "Nos Voisins: Monsieur and Madame Renaud", by Albert Dumouchel, who may be regarded as the father of modern print- making in this country. The collection will be on permanent display in the Scarborough College Library and you are welcome to view it. 'ADVANCE WARNING .

EUBIE at the Royal Alex, CAMELOT at The O'Keefe, Tina Turner at the Imperial Room, National Ballet at Harbour Castle, a glimpse at Heaven plus some other interesting experiences. ON STAGE:- Eubie has finally arrived at The Alex and has been well worth the wait. This isn't a book show; it's a revue to the music of Eubie Blake, still alive at the age of 97 and the composer of well over a thousand songs including I'm Just Wild About Harry and Memories Of You. As well as being a composer, Mr. Blake is or sadly, was a ragtime pianist of con- siderable stature. Along with Noble Sissle, he was responsible (with Shuffle Along in 1921) for the restoration of authentic negro artistry to Broadway from which it had been largely absent for over a decade. A case can be made that he is the largest single influence on popular negro music of this cen- tury. My vote would be for A little bit of Europe in Scarborough Is at the ...

CLOSED MONDAYS .At• .� r -- • • - r0i Is • it � J Edward Ellington but it remains that Eubie Blake stands tall in the pantheon of those composers whose music is deservedly beloved. The revue Eubie ac- complishes the difficult task of proclaiming the artistry of the man at the same time as it is en- tertaining. Simply put, this is probably one of the most entertaining shows to play at The Alex this season. It's tuneful, it's cheery, it's everything a musical should be. It's not profound nor is it intended to be. It is just great fun and what a change that is these days when so many producers seem to believe that every show must have a message. The only message in Eubie is the message of its namesake's talent. Of course• it follows that the purveyors of the message are also talented. One could almost go back to carnival barker days and say that they sing, they dance. they crawl on their bellies like reptiles. That wouldn't be completely correct but it would be close. The dancing is just superb and includes some honest to Terpsichore tap dancing, challenge dancing and some movements that approach ballet in their sensuousnesa. Statuuesque Jennifer Lewis' nYnditioa of My Handyman Ain't Handy Anymore can make you break out in a sweat of desire at the same time as you double over in laughter at the double entendre lyrics. The same Miss Lewis can also tingle your spine with an imploring and demanding Roll Jordan. Terry Burrell can make you weep with her Weary, sigh as she sings Memories of You and laugh at her rendition, with Leonard Piggee, of I Wish I Had Someone To Rock Me In The Cradle Of Love. Lynne Clifton -Allen can turn the top of a piano into a surrogate stew as she renders Daddy. (No, it's not the same Daddy that Mary Martin sang so many years ago) There are more artists who could and should be mentioned but this is going to be a long column and the space just isn't available. We'll try to mention them in later columns. For now though take our word for it that Eubie is a bright, cheery show that You shouldn't miss. We just wish we could do it proper justice. STILL ON STAGE: Of course. the big news, we mean the REALLY big news, is the twentieth anniversary revival of Camelot at The O'Keefe. the theatre which it opened in October. 1960. Seems incredible doesn't it that it was that long ago. By now. you will have read about the gala opening night, the reception, the party, the black tie elegance of it all.

Well played boys-� - --- --- - Report From Queen's Park By George Ashe M.P.P On Friday, May 23rd, the Minister of Educatian introduced to the Ontario Legislature, landmark kgislation to provide for special education in the Province of Ontario. The principle of this legislation is based on universal access to public education, and the concept is simply that an educational system has an obligation to be of service to all children. Once adopted by the Legislature, this Bill will guarantee the right of all children to be enrolled in a school. The Bill would ensure that no longer will retarded children, for example, only be allowed to enrol in a school after an assessment procedure, which has in fact denied in sane instances the universality of access. As well. school boards would have to assume responsibility for providing suitable programming for all children. This would include the provision of special education programs and special education services for exceptional pupils. An "exceptional pupil" is defined as a pupil with com- municational. intellectural, physical or multiple ex- ceptionafities. This definition can be applied to bright children, or ones with learning difficulties. Once the Bill is adopted, it is expected to take full effect by September of 1985. For the 19ft4l school year, nineteen school boards will test the planning procedures that have been developed by the Ministry of Education through consultation with school boards, professional organizations, individuals and parents' Associations. The Durham Board of Education is one of the nineteen boards to participate in this initial stage. Once the experiences of 1980/61 are available for study, they will be used to design a carefully planned and staged implementation of the total program, with all school board in the province beginning the program by September of 1981. The Government of Ontario recognizes that additional casts will be involved, and is fully prepared to provide the additional financial resources which will be needed to help phase-in the new special education programs and services. Financial resources for special education will be increased each year to a total additional amount of $75 million by 1984- 85, thus assuring school boards of continuing financial support. In reaching towards this final step governing the rights of children to education and the responsibility of school boards *o provide suitable programs, a number of activities have already been put into place. The first of these steps was related to early identification of children's learning needs. Steps have now been taken to develop procedures for early identification and programming in every school board in the province. As well, two demonstration schools the Trillium and Jules Leger schools, have been established for children with severe learning disabilities. One of the main advantages of these demonstration schools has been to provide professional development opportunities for teachers who are looking for practical experience in the special education field. The passage of this Bill will ensure that all children who have a right to attend school in Ontario will receive an educational program designed to meet their needs, their interests and their capabilities. It is representative of the Government's commitment to continue to promote and extend educational opportunities for our most precious resource .. the children of this Province. MONO-- ►a.....:y ......�... a---�.' :� In June 1979 the Ministry of Transportation and Communications held public information centres to discuss concept designs and alternatives for a four lane freeway within the East Metro Transportation Corridor.

Archdiocesan �adlr Director: Lillian O'Connor, Provincial President of the Catholic Women's league and many others. Following the dinner Father Fournier spoke to the 1.160 assembled guests and suggested some changes which he felt could be made at the grass roots level. Top of his list was that there should be "no more boring meetings'.: a popular suggestion was to Add communion at Sunday Hass; and to organize bible studies and retreats. He also called on the mem- bership to improve their image and to accept the dwilenge of ladership. This was followed by greetings from Lillian O'Connor, Provincial C.W.L. President, who stressed she was strongly in favour of censorship, citing the recent con- troversy over The Tin Drum, and emphasized ber strong anti -abortion stand. The guest speaker, the Archbishop of Toronto, was then introduced- His Eminence told, the mem- bers he was disappointed the Toronto Archdiocese was only number three and be would like to see it become number one. The Cardinal talked about the controversy over the recent short abortion clip made by the Roman Catbolic Church which was slumned by radio and Tv. But his talk centred mainly on the theme of the con- vention oo-vention which was 'Faith and Family' and he caned on everyone present to develop the strength of the family unit saying "we must not abdicate our responsibilities .. we must not be discouraged." He reminded them of the meaning of the word love which is "giving of oneself" but said that today most people are always most to get". The Toronto Archdiocesan Council will be celebrating its Diamond Jubilee next year and it will again be held in the Canadian Room at the Royal York Hotel. those sports.

Don't use a roller on bumps, it compact the soil and impedes root development. Instead, lift the sod and scoop out ex- cess soil. Then replace the sod and water the area. Hollows can be eliminated easily by adding an inch of sterilized topsoil per month until the surface is level. Bare spots result from various causes. Bare spots in shady areas may result when trees or shrubs rob the grass of food. So for shady areas around trees try feeding once a month with Tree & Hedge Feeder. If after two months • the grass does not respond, re- seed the area with shade - adapted grass. For bare spots in sunny areas, rough up the soil and re -seed, or plant one grass plant per square inch. These plants can be taken from the edge of the lawn where the grass is growing vigorously. Once established they will tiller out and fill up the bare spot. To make gardening easier, get a free copy of the C -I -L Lawn & Garden Guide at your nearest C -I -L dealer.

Ontario Strawberries Superb Ontario strawberries - there's nothing quite like them for freshness and superb flavor. In the southern parts of the province, strawberries will be available mid-June. In the Niagara Falls area they will be ready around the third and fourth weeks, and in other areas the last week of June. Strawberries will also continue to be available in July. To help you enjoy Ontario strawberries while they're here, marketing specialists at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food offer these hints. To prepare strawberries, start with plump, well - shaped solid red berries. Wash them in cold water, hull them and pat to dry. Dart soak them since they tend to lose their flavor and color. To serve, slice or leave them whole, but prepare them close to Water Skiing Tips Water skiing is an exciting and increasingly popular outdoor activity, but it is safe only if certain precautions are taken and rules are followed. The Canada Safety Council suggests some tips that will help reduce the risks of accidents. - Be a confident swimmer before trying on skis. - Learn to water ski from a good instructor, preferably certified. - Wear an approved flotation device that provides maximum protection in the event of a fall. - Make sure that all equipment is in good operating condition before starting. - Keep eyes on water ahead and throw tow line clear when you fall. - Hold up a ski after taking a fall in a well -travelled boating area. - Avoid skiing in shallow water or at night. - Stay away from docks, boats and swimming areas. - Run parallel to shore and come in slowly when landing. - Always have an observer in the boat - it's the law. To the Council's knowledge, there are no available national statistics on water skiing accidents as a separate category. serving time to preserve their flavor and firmness. Strawberries look and taste good on their own, so they really don't need much dressing up. You may wish to add cream and a sprinkling of sup r, or for a touch of elegance. pour chilled Ontario sauterne or champagne over the strawberries• garnish with mint and serve right away. Strawberries are an ideal snack- Just put them in a large glass bawl in the middle of the table and see how long they last! Strawberries are ideal to carry along on a picnic, too. If you'd like to dip them, use yogurt or combine some sour cream with a bit of brown sugar and vanilla extract. Ontario strawberries are delicious served in many ways, but the simpler the better, so you don't hide their fresh flavor. CARPETS & BROADLOOM CARPET i Upholstery Clea► ing. Carpet repair.

FRENCHMAN'S BAY RELAY TEAMS DO WELL The 16th Annual Danforth Gardens Relay Races took place recently at Birchmount Stadium and Frenchman's Bay Public School entered a full slate of 12 teams in the 5 _..-._through 14 year old categories. In each age division 24 of the top schools from Metropolitan Toronto competed, 4 beats, each with 6 school teams per heat. The first 3 schools in each group moved on to the "A" division, the second 3 teams went to "B" division. Despite the high calibre of the schools involved, Fren- chman's Bay fared very well with many teams finishing near the top. The 11 year old boys team did in fact take first place with a record 57.5 seconds, also making them the best in Durham. Leon Presner, Steve Paxton, Burt and Bernard Fealing make up that excellent squad. Other teams from Fren- chman's to do well in the "A" division were the 11 year old girls who placed 3rd (again, out of 24 schools) with Cindy Campbell's fine work, the 9 year old boys who came 6th and the 12 year old girls featuring Dawn Boomhour were 4th. The 13 year old boys took 3rd spot overall. Two of our teams, after finishing 4th in their fust race, putting them in the "B" grouping won all the rest of their races and placed 1st in that division. One of those teams was the 14 year old girls' squad led by Lynn Snowden, a Durham Champion sprinter while the other was the 10 year Old boy's team of Neil Matheson, Gary Walsh, Greg Diprisco and Mark Davidson whose superb speed greatly helped his team to victory. The remaining teams represented Frenchman's very well and all runners are to be coogratualate for the Cure performances.

The project consists of lessons which will compare children's performance with typical Paper and Pencil presentation and with presem- tatioms given an a microcomputer display terminal. The aim of the project is NOT to evaluate a child's math skills, but rather to learn how to best adapt the computer's opacities to help children perform math lessons with a minimum strain on attention and interest demands. Dr. Humphreys is planning to be in the Pickering area in the early fan to introduce the computers to hyperactive children in this area from Grades 1 to 6. If you wish further information please call 597-1500 est. ISIS. The next Feingold meeting will be held in September. the date to be published later.

June 14th there will be an outing to look for wild- flowers. For all of the budding botanists out there, this field trip with the Pickering Naturalists should be a treat. Edge Pegg is thoraughily knowledgeable in almost all plant species and can identify native flora with ease.

Bring a lunch and enjoy a fine day with friends. Meeting place: Pegg's home, south side of Concession 7, just west of Westney Road. Departure time is 9:30 a.m. Call leader Edge Pegg for information - 649-5023. On Sun. June 15th another outing has been planned by the Pickering Naturalists, this one is to look for Eastern Bluebirds. Rob Nisbet (668-0692) is the leader. Every year Rob maintain marry Bluebird nest boxes in Pickering and keeps records of the birds' activities. Bluebirds have not nested successfully here in recent years and are considered a "Threatened Species", one step away from "Endangered" status. Their numbers started declining in the early part of this century, slowly increased, and they thrived reasonably well until about three years ago. Reasons for the decline are not known, but it is speculated that air pollution mainly from the automobile, harsh winters and the disappearance of wood fence posts have all contributed to their disap- pearance from our area. By placing specially built boxes on fence posts in open terrain, we hope to entice them back here as they are truly fine birds. We will observe nest boxes, check the bluebirds for bands, and will also probably see nesting Tree Swallows and House Wrens as these species compete very successfully for the same nest boxes. Join other members and friends of the Pickering Naturalists for a brisk walk on a summer evening to view some interesting birds. Meeting place is Edge Pegg's farm, Concession 7, just west of Westney Road, Departure Time: 6:30 p.m. Yet another Pickering Naturalists outing - this time Star - Gazing at Mulberry Lane on Wed. June 18th. Last Fall two dates were scheduled for star -gazing and both were can- celled because of overcast skies.

FRENCHMAN'S BAY RELAY TEAMS DO WELL The 16th Annual Danforth Gardens Relay Races took place recently at Birchmount Stadium and Frenchman's Bay Public School entered a full slate of 12 teams in the 5 _..-._through 14 year old categories. In each age division 24 of the top schools from Metropolitan Toronto competed, 4 beats, each with 6 school teams per heat. The first 3 schools in each group moved on to the "A" division, the second 3 teams went to "B" division. Despite the high calibre of the schools involved, Fren- chman's Bay fared very well with many teams finishing near the top. The 11 year old boys team did in fact take first place with a record 57.5 seconds, also making them the best in Durham. Leon Presner, Steve Paxton, Burt and Bernard Fealing make up that excellent squad. Other teams from Fren- chman's to do well in the "A" division were the 11 year old girls who placed 3rd (again, out of 24 schools) with Cindy Campbell's fine work, the 9 year old boys who came 6th and the 12 year old girls featuring Dawn Boomhour were 4th. The 13 year old boys took 3rd spot overall. Two of our teams, after finishing 4th in their fust race, putting them in the "B" grouping won all the rest of their races and placed 1st in that division. One of those teams was the 14 year old girls' squad led by Lynn Snowden, a Durham Champion sprinter while the other was the 10 year Old boy's team of Neil Matheson, Gary Walsh, Greg Diprisco and Mark Davidson whose superb speed greatly helped his team to victory. The remaining teams represented Frenchman's very well and all runners are to be coogratualate for the Cure performances.

June 14th there will be an outing to look for wild- flowers. For all of the budding botanists out there, this field trip with the Pickering Naturalists should be a treat. Edge Pegg is thoraughily knowledgeable in almost all plant species and can identify native flora with ease. One of his FOOD MARKET Hwy 2 Rouge Hills Just east of Rouge Bridge FREEZER SPECIAL Al Red Brand Beef Sides lb. $1.69 Hinds ..$2.09 Cut & Wrapped To Your Satisfaction At No Extra Charge PP specialties is Orchids which he will search out for us before- hand and lead us to the right spot on Saturday. Bring a lunch and enjoy a fine day with friends. Meeting place: Pegg's home, south side of Concession 7, just west of Westney Road. Departure time is 9:30 a.m. Call leader Edge Pegg for information - 649-5023. On Sun. June 15th another outing has been planned by the Pickering Naturalists, this one is to look for Eastern Bluebirds. Rob Nisbet (668-0692) is the leader. Every year Rob maintain marry Bluebird nest boxes in Pickering and keeps records of the birds' activities. Bluebirds have not nested successfully here in recent years and are considered a "Threatened Species", one step away from "Endangered" status. Their numbers started declining in the early part of this century, slowly increased, and they thrived reasonably well until about three years ago. Reasons for the decline are not known, but it is speculated that air pollution mainly from the automobile, harsh winters and the disappearance of wood fence posts have all contributed to their disap- pearance from our area. By placing specially built boxes on fence posts in open terrain, we hope to entice them back here as they are truly fine birds. We will observe nest boxes, check the bluebirds for bands, and will also probably see nesting Tree Swallows and House Wrens as these species compete very successfully for the same nest boxes. Join other members and friends of the Pickering Naturalists for a brisk walk on a summer evening to view some interesting birds. Meeting place is Edge Pegg's farm, Concession 7, just west of Westney Road, Departure Time: 6:30 p.m. Yet another Pickering Naturalists outing - this time Star - Gazing at Mulberry Lane on Wed.
