N _s Herrema Declares Electing Chairman Won't Work A proposal by Ontario Municipal Affairs Minister Claude Bennett would have the public elect the regional chairman rather than councillors, and this wouldn't work says Durham Regional chair- man Gary Herrema. Not only would the sug- gested changes bring ply politics into municipal government but candidates could not afford to cam- paign in a region -wide elec- tion. Herrema estimates it would cost a potential can- didate $25,000 to run a cam- paign and he said the only way to cover such expenses would be to gain the sup- port of a political party. Herrema, former mayor of Uxbridge, serving his fist year on regional noun- ._ cil, suggests that if the public was allowed to elect the head of the regional government the chairman would have far more power than in the current system. According to Herrema, he has seen little or no support for changes in the election of regional chairman. He also said if the changes were instituted he would not run for office. CLOCA Makes Access Easier For Disabled This summer, the Cen- tral Lake Ontario Conser- vation Authority (CLOCA) has hired five students to find ways to make the con- servation areas more ac- cessable to the disabled The students were hired through a Summer Canada '81 program, funded by the federal government.

According to Ann Kosub, the spokesman for the crew, the project is the first of its kind in Canada. As a result, it is being widely watched The group has in- vestigated 11 conservation areas altogether, but has placed more emphasis on the larger or better known areas such as Heber Down or Purple Woods. "We'd like to have Pur- ple Woods more accessible," says Kosub, reffering to the annual maple syrup demonstra- tion. "Nobody should be deprived of the beauty of nature," she says. The authority is already finalizing plans for a fully accessible waiting area/washroom building on the site. Other proposals for the area will be evaluated when the report is completed. Kosub points out not only the disabled, but also the Durham Regional Chair- man Gary Herrema is critical of the federal government's plan to offer longer land leases on the site of the Pickering air- port, saying the extensions offer tenants no increased security. In mid-July federal Transport Minister Jean - Luc Pepin announced five- year leases would be granted for properties within the 6,000 acre core of the site, and ten-year leases would be granted for lands on the 12,000 acre periphery. Herrema said the problem with this new arrangement is that all leases have a 6D -day cancellation clause, and this offers tenants little incentive to improve their properties. A contingent of regional council members and Her- rema, plan to go before Pepin to explain conditions at the airport site. Herrema said the leases are no good, not even sup- plying tenants with a fresh water supply, and he adds, few of the farmers can af- ford to pay $5,000 for a well. Herrema said he will urge .:a wa to develop a cargo i.port on the vacant lands, said such a proposal Auld attract industrial elopment to the area.

The recommendations will form the basis of the report which the public may review at the Authority of- fice (1650 Dundas St.E., Whitby) . "It is now in the Authori- ty's hands to carry out the relatively inexpensive pro- posals ranging from from washroom design to picnic 5 tables," says Kosub. She is ; optimistic about the future of the proposals and feels CLOCA is enthusiastic about the project. Ppa 2 THE NEWSIPOST Wad. Sept. 2, 1981 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Interest Rates Anger is getting greater as more and more homeowners find their mortgage renewals beyond reach and their one big possession threatened. Martin Hattersley, leader of the Social Credit Party of Canada, has announced the launching of a nation-wide peti- tion to limit mortgage rates on mortgages and loans. "Peti- tion 6" is based on the fact that as recently as 1967 it was il- legal for Canadian banks to lend at a rate higher than 6%. Readers may get copies of "Petition 6' from Box 5851 Postal Station L, Edmonton, alberta T6C 4C2. The question is coming up in many individual minds in Canada, if the head of the Bank of Canada can arbitrarily raise or lower the interest rate for banks, why can't he just decide to make it six percent? With the current rate of interest it is easier to have your money (if you have any spare) invested in a bank or trust company than working in a company, shares on the stock market, or to purchase capital goods for yourself. Dr. Morton Shulman told an audience last week that they should sell their stock shares, gold, silver etc. and put it all into a bank account getting 20% interest - it is the best return on your investment in Canada! This sad state of af- fairs is what is happening in a country which creeds capital investment in resource development and therefore needs incentive to buy mining shares, oil shares - any shares - in an industry which is producing wealth for the country. Not every dollar in circulation is a "good" dollar. Some dollars move around the market place doing "work" more than once a day, while other "bad" bucks lie in bank ac- counts doing no work. producing no wealth but just giving the current owner more bucks not earned in a productive way. And a country which has its owners of extra bucks in- vesting in a bank account for safety and high return is a country which is headed for economic ruin. ------------- --------- What's Up The post office has been back "in action" for about 15 days now and mail is being delivered slower and more e•atic than ever before. A survey of the NEWS office shows a letter postmarked Aug. 17th arriving on Aug. 24th, Aug. 18th came on Aug. 20th, Aug. 19th carne on Aug. 20th, Aug. 13th postmark came an Aug. 20th ( from London, Ont.) , Aug. 14th postmark arrived an Aug. 20th, a Scarborough Utilities letter postmarked Aug. 11th arrived on Aug. 20th and a CNE let- ter postmarked on Aug. i7th arrived on Aug. 24th. These are envelopes taken from two days of mail receipt showing that delivery varies from one day to nine days - hardly a good result for highly paid, skilled wares in a system which is shortly going to raise the first class letter rate to something over 20t each! If the postal service is to get incentive to be efficient (as it used to be back in the 40's and 50's), the govt wound be very smart to let the private couriers compete with it. The result would, in our opinion, be best for the Canadian public, which is after all whom the government of Canada is supposed to be seeing. ---------------------- Take It Easy Provincial Police will be using every available patrol out this Labor Day weekend, says OPP Commissioner H.H. Graham. The patrol units will be marked and unmarked cars and motorcycles. Many of the cars will be equipped with radar and operate in areas which have a high accident rate. During the Labor Day weekend last year, 9 persons were killed m accidents investigated by the OPP and 636 persons were injured. According to Commissioner Graham, the OPP is commit- ted to reducing the number of people killed and injured through effective enforcement patrols. Some of the causes of serious accidents in Ontario are ex- cessive speed. unsafe lane changes and following too close. Instructions have gone out to the 190 OPP detachments to ensure all members of the Force operating during this period do their utmost to check these contraventions of the law. Motorists are reminded that the law in Ontario requires them to "buckle up" their seat belts. It is a proven fact that the use of seat belts reduces deaths and serious injuries. "We will have every radar unit out in our cars," says Commissioner Graham. "The public should know that they'll be used in unmarked cars as well as the familiar black and white cruisers." The OPP urge drivers to be patient in the heavy traffic expected during this summer's last long weekend. no /� PICKERING D As...

(Photo-Bob Watson) -------------, Bob's Notes Food Prices According to the Grocery Products Manufactures of Canada, "even with inflation, Canadian food prices are still reasonable compared to other countries and prices are lower in Canada in any country except the United states". Using a world food basket, the cast in Ottawa was $72.20, in Washington it was $75.27, in London, England $93.38 while in Paris, France it totalled $104.1o. Another interesting statistic, "Canadians spent less on food - about 17% - than any other country in the world, except the U.S." The pamphlet slows that we Canadians are eating more out of our homes as well and seems we are prepared to pay tips, taxes and higher prices for restaurant food as an alter- native to food we can prepare more cheaply at home.

Almost $19 billion in cash and tax points will be transfer- red to the provinces in 1961-82 by the federal government, to assist the provinces in funding a variety of programs. Weatherhead pointed out that more than 50% of the cost of post secondary education is funded by the federal govern- ment. Despite fears to the contrary, the task force recom- mends that federal contributions to college and university education be maintained, but that the federal government role in establishing "national goals" be more clearly defin- ed. Weatherhead noted that thousands of Scarborough students will be starting classes this month at Scarborough's Centennial College and the University of Toronto's Scarborough campus, as well as institutions throughout Ontario and Canada. "The task force strongly supports access to colleges and universities in every pro- vince, regardless of where a student comes from in Canada," Weatherhead said. Weatherhead supported the task force's recommendation that a fair system of compensation for doctors be negotiated in order to discourage doctors from "extra bill- ing'. patients for excess charges not covered by ONT. If negotiations fail a system of binding arbitration should be established with doctors' compensation determined by a three person pastel consisting of one person from the medical profession, one person from government, chaired by an independent chairperson. Provinces which do not provide unversal access to health care should be denied federal funds, the task force said. "Scarborough's two hospitals have suffered the pinch in the wake of recent provincial cutbacks," Weatherhead said. "I fully support the task force when they call for no cutbacks in federal contributions to medical care." Weatherhead was encouraged by the task fare's recom- mendation that the two levels of government study mom funding for skilled training in order to shift away from welfare expenditures. 'Teaching a skill to a person is far more rewarding to the individual and society in the long ruln.' Weatherhead head said. Weatherhead endorsed the task force's recommendation respecting the Canada Assistance Plan (CAP), which covers 50% of the cost of welfare payments in addition to putially funding such social programs as day care, and Meals on Wheels for senior citizens. Noting the number of senior citizens in Scarborough receiving assistance through Meals on Wheels, Weadierbead supported the task forces's recommendation that there be no cutbacks in CAT funding. Finally, Weatherbad said the task force studied the ques- tion of the visibility of levels of government contributing to jointly funded projects. "Nineteen billion dollars represents more than 25% of the federal government's ex- penditures m cash and foregone taxes. I think the federal government should be more visible in its participation in these plant. It is not a matter of getting publicity, it's just that, as a federal MP, I want people to be in a position to judge how the federal government spends their tax dollars,., he concluded.

Sept. 2. 1981 THE NEWSIPOST Papa 3 Taxation Ch es in taxation ang recommended in a report by Metro's former chief ad- ministrative officer John Kruger, would be harmful to Scarborough and North York, said Mayor Mel Lastman. The report recommends assessment under Section 86 of the Assessment Act, meaning homes of similar structural design would have the same tax assess- ment regardless of loca- tion. Lastman says if Kruger's report was implemented citizens of North York would be big losers, taxes would increase substantial- ly and no additional benefits would be derived. Lastman noted under this taxation system a home in Rosedale would be taxed the same as an iden- tical home in the Steeles Avenue and Weston Road area, but the home in Rosedale would sell for far more money. '!itis form of tax system was put in use in Hamilton and many citizens appeal- ed their assessment and the city lost $3 million. i OFF PAINT t WALLCOVERINGS 20 �/O Orr 297 Port Union Rd.

VA VAA Val Niaw Last year Ontario replaced its system of Tax Credits for seniors with a new program of Property and Sales Tax Grants to help offset municipal, school and retail sales taxes. The Property Tax Grant of up to $500 per household is provided in two installments annually. The Sales Tax Grant is an automatic $50 paid each year to all Ontario residents 65 and over. APPLICATIONS The 1980 Property Tax Grant was paid to recipients in one payment. In 1981, the Grant is being paid In two installments. The first payment. sent automatically in the spring, was equal to one-half the amount of your 1980 Grant. To qualify for the final installment you must submit an application to the Ministry of Revenue. If you receive the federal Old Age Security pension, and are eligible, you will receive this application for your Property Tax Grant during the first half of September, 1981. Those who reach the age of 65 between now and December will receive their applications early in 1982. Seniors who are not eligible for federal Old Age Security payments, but who have previously established eligibility for the Property Tax Grant will also receive an application. The Ministry of Revenue is mailing applications only to those seniors who are thought to be eligible. If you do not receive an application by September 21 and.feel you qualify, please contact our toll- free Information Centre. ELIGiBHJ TY If you're 65 or over and own or rent your home you re eligible for the Property Tax Grant of up to $500. If you rent your grant will total 200. of your rent or 5500. whichever is less.

Board &Police Get Together For Safety The Scarborough Board of Education and the Metro Toronto Police want to make pedestrian crossovers ( crosswalks ) safer for students and will lauch a major campaign m early September to make students and drivers more aware of the need for greater safety practices. The board's campaign will include a set of crosswalk safety cur- riculum guides for teachers to use in the classroom. The guides were developed for all demen- tary school grade levels and stress the purpose of crosswalks and bow to use them safely. Teaching aids include games, art, music, puzzles, posters and films. The police will increase surveillance and enforce- ment of crosswalks and help inform the public. The board partially in response to a request from the Wexford Home and School Association, established its Crosswalk Awareness Committee in March to study the crosswalk problem and im- plement an awareness pro- gram. The Wexfdord Associa- tion's request followed a fatal accident at a crosswalk near Wexford Public School on Oct. 1990. The Crosswalk Awareness Try To Change Golf Club Agreement by Gay Abbate The -sweetheart agree- ment" enjoyed by two Scarborough golf clubs may be ttaming sour. Last week, Scarborough Board of Control met with repceseatatives of the Hunt Cbab and Scarborough Golf Club to discuss their 1956 agreement with the borough by which their fix- ed taxes are deferred as long as they remain golf courses. Graham Janes, president of Scarborough Golf Club, told the Board of Control i'. that although satisfied with the way things are now, he is ni va tbeleas willing to discuss the possibility of a highs: rate of interest than the present 4 per cent. The dub will owe $361,000 by the end of this year. The Hunt Club owes the borough W,000. Its presi- dent, Mr.G.Robinette, is willing to renegotiate if the"price is right". U not, the club will relocate. Although accured debt is payable only if the club is redeveloped, Robinette af- fw med that the threat of a >.._ z. 7 P t1 Evelyn Harris of Scarborough was among the many sea- faring passengers returning from a recent 14 -day North Cape cruise aboard the 22,000 -ton Norwegian flag vessel Royal Viking Star.

Committee, composed of members of board ad- ministration and staff, the Metro Toronto Police, the Scarborough Home and School Council, the Scarborough,Borough of teachers'and prin- cipals' organizations, went to work after getting its mandate from the board. The major campaign will begin the first week of school in September when students arrive back from their summer vacations. "Pedestrian crossovers are one of the safest places to crass otir streets if used properly by pedestrians and if a proper lookout is maintained by motorists," said Staff Sergeant Don Walker. "We teach all elementary school children to stop at the curb, look all ways, point, wait until it is safe, then walk across the street. This is a good rule for pedestrians of all ages to follow."

SW. 2, 19111 Bill Watt's World BLACK MAGIC: It's Tues- day morning (2 a.m.) as this is being written and we're still struggling to find proper words to describe the impact of Amanda Ambrose who has just opened at P.W.D.'s in Yorkville for a two week stint. Paraphrasing Bosley Crowther, one can truthful- ly state that Amanda Am- brose is nothing short of a sensation. This singer pianist can and does do things with a song that one must literally experience to believe! As a pianist, she has the quick, determined, almost angry style of a Rosetta Howard. As a singer, she is the embodiment of what Terri Saunders should have been and the reincarnation of Juanita Hall. The things she can do to a song! I'm Old Fashioned begins in the style of Boc- cherini, segues into Afro- Cuban and finishes as ex- plosive dynamite. Miss Otis Regrets summons the shade of Monty Wooley high on living. Besame Mucho has echoes of Harlem rather than Mon- tevideo and is all the better for it. Frank Harris' I'm At Your Side is quite simply raw passion. Look, I'm getting tired. Let it stand that Amanda Ambrose is the most ex- citing act in town. Shame on you if you miss her. One supposes we really should mention that doing a gag opening for her was the group Dini And The Weanies featuring Dini Petty and Fatso Martineau of City -TV. Miss Petty was glamourous and the good looks she inherited from her mother are a joy to behold. Martineau merely justified his nickname. BILLY D. KIDD'S NOTEBOOK: As you read this, we're at Hy's in Yorkville where the Global Television Network is holding a media preview of its 1981 season. We'll be reporting back to you and advising what to look for on this most enterprising of networks. Presiding over it is Al Dubin who is the head publicity boncho for the network. He is also the Grand Sheikh of the Toron- to Tit for Tat Tent of The Soca; of the Desert and he has sent along welcome news that the Festival of Festivals has finally recognized the glorious ef- forts of Laurel and Hardy.

Among other events, there will be a bar room brawl, a chili cook off and a pie eating contest. The fun starts at 11 a.m. with a ranch breakfast and we suggest to you that a day at the Cac- tus is a dam site more fun than poking 'round the stores in a suburban mall. And, you'll have the chance to see yours truly in action along with such other luminaries as Brett Halli- day and Sylvia (great legs) Train.

On Labour Day, Donald O'Connor opens at the Royal Alen in Say Hello To Harvey which is a musical version of the grand old play Harvey. Some will remember when it opened on Broadway a number of years ago. It featured Josephine Hull and the late Frank Fay in the role of Elwood P. Dowd the delightfully p collated man who kept company with a six foot invisible Rabbit. Do you need any more of premise than that? On Tues. Sept. 15 the fust meeting of the fall schedule of the Sons of the Desert is scheduled. As always it'll be at the variety Club rooms in the Westbury. We hope to be there for at least the first part of the meeting before leaving to catch Shirley Jones who is open- ing the new season at the Imperial Room that same On the night before that well be attending at The O'Keefe to review the Canadian Opera Company's presentation of A Masked Ball. The follow- ing Monday we'll be reviewing Tales Of Hoff- man in a one hundredth an- niversary presentation. The opera is perhaps not one of the better known ones but everyone knows the Barcarolle which is one of the most charming com- positions of this Offenbach wort. BOOK WORLD: Few men have been universally laud- ed and reviled in their own lifetime. One such however, was Henry Ford. Here was a simple, earthy man who was possessed of great technical acuity but limited though genuine knowledge of human nature. When his efforts to make a better life for all were ridiculed by sophisticated society he withdrew into a world of his own and is probably remembered by many to- day only as the man who spawned the universal con- cept of the assembly line and its inherent evils. In fact, Henry Ford was a fine man, so fine that few could or would accept him at face value. It was felt that he was only a naive man who exploited millions. We sug- gest that should you want to know the truth about this much maligned man, you could do worse than to read Henry Ford, The Wayward Capitalist (Doubleday). The authoress, Carol Gelderman clearly is will- ing to paint Henry Ford in the most favourable of lights but not at the ex- pense of accuracy. The man, like all of us, was not without faults and all of them are paraded in the pages of this book. But, overwhelming them by far are many virtues, the most outstanding of which were his early regard for what was once known as the common workingman. We are not likely to see the likes of such as Henry Ford again and more's the pity. But, one can at least read about him and accordingly. we recommend Henry Ford, The Wayward Capitalist. What a sublime difference between he and that petroleum idiot who currently heads our coun- try! ON RECORD: Toronto has been known for some time now as L.oserville, North. The Blue Jays, the Leafs and The BLizzrd are only laughable representations of competitive teams and our music scene, while good, is not notably ven- turesome. So. we looked forward with guarded en- thusiasm to the second album by the Rock group called Toronto. It's called Head On (Solid Gold) and we wish we could say it's right on. Unfortunately we can't. It's been said that, right or wrong, the first page of a book is what sells it. The same principle ap- plies to recordings. The fust cut is the one which sells it. Well, we didn't get beyond the fust cut and you know why? We couldn't make out a word of the vocal effort by Holly (can you believe that name?) Woods. Now then, just as we will not read a book that doesn't catch our attention on the first page. neither will we persevere with an album that blows it on the first cut.

HISTORY IN ACTION This annual event is run by the Pickering Museum which is more than the name sounds. It is in fact many buildings, all collected from different locations and erected at the site in Greenwood, like a Pioneer Village. There are 13 buildings in which you can see a marvellous assortment of old washing machines, wood stoves, cream separators, cider presses, wedding gowns, furniture, farm implements, etc. etc. It is the "Action" part that makes it all the more fascinating: you will see steam driven log sawing machines, an old steam tractor working, the Smithy at work in the blacksmith shop, and demonstrations of baking and crafts. It all takes place the weekend of Sept. 12 and 13 at the Pickering Museum. PICKERING HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY On Sept. 8th, a home economist from the Department of Agriculture will be giving a talk on Storing and Preserving Vegetables.

The Fall 1961 Newsletter is out and full of activities for you and your family. Most of the programs begin in October or at the end of September, so you have time to pick up a brochure from the Municipal Building and decide on an ac- tivity for the next couple of months. The Pickering Aerials Gymnastics Chub, the competitive groups, will be holding tryouts on Fri. and Sat., Sept. 18 and Queen's Park Report Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing Supports Rental Accommodation In many centres of Ontario the vacancy rates in rental ac- commodation are very low. To ensure that all Ontarians have access to adequate accommodation at a reasonable price, your Provincial Government has inaugurated and since enriched, a $42 million no -interest loan program to stimulate the construction of rental units in low vacancy areas. The Ontario Rental Construction Loan Program has been in operation since the beginning of the year. Under the pro- gram loans of $4,200 per unit are available to the private sector for the construction of rental housing within specified price limits. Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing officials are optimistic that as many as 10,000 new rental housing starts will occur because of the incentive offered by the new pro- gram. Builders accepting loans from this plan will be required to offer up to 15 per cent of the units they construct to local housing authorities responsible for managing assisted housing in the community. As well, where there is a definite local need shown, provision must be made for units special- ly designed for use by the handicapped. Speaking To You Scott Fennep M.P. Ontario Riding Politicians often complain about poor media coverage and I'm certainly no exception. But there is a difference between occasionally getting angry with the media and be- ing out to get it - I don't think the federal government is willing to make this distinction anymore. The recommendations in the recently released Kent report by the Royal Commission on Newspapers are potentially the greatest threat to freedom of the pros the country has faced. If the federal govern- ment accepts these recommendations - and I believe it very much wants to - Canada will take its first step towards a regulated, shy media. A media where eventually every publishing decision will be weighed against the anger it could provoke from government and special interests. You may think I'm exaggerating. After all, the Kent report only wants to reduce the "power" of newspaper chairs. The Royal Commission was created only in response to the shutting down of the Ottawa Journal and the Winnipeg Tribune, leaving both cities with one daily newspaper, each controlled by chaias. The Kent Coaunis- sim merely wants to increase public access to the media. Unfortunately, this isn't the whole stay. The Ottawa Journal and Winnipeg Tribune received barely a mention in the report. The fact that both these newspapers were losing money was virtually ignored Instead we are treated to the usual self-righteous moaning that profits shouldn't receive priority over a newspaper's .'duty" to serve a community. Nowhere does the report point out that without profits newspaper publishing would be impossible. All of the report's recommendations are based on a philosophical perversion. The commission is attempting to redefine the word "Freedom' This is what I find truly 19 at the Gym Centre. For Tiny and Cadet, (5-9 years) tryout will be from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sat. Sept. 19th and for Argo and Tyro (10 to 14 years) tryouts will be held on Fr. Sept. 18th from 6 to 8 p.m. The pre -competitive group (ages 5 to 13 years) will have their tryout on Sept. 12th, from 10 to 1 p.m. Boys' Com- petitive Gymnastics Club (ages 5 to 14 years) will hold tryouts on Fri. Sept. 11th and 6 to 8 p.m. Note: In any of the above programs, do not register until after the tryouts. Keep FOR Pall Recreation Programs This winter the Town of Pickering Department of Parks and Recreation has organized a wide selection of special interest programs which cover the following areas:- After School Children & Youth Activities, Youth Centres, Youth Artistic & Performing Arts Programs, Sports Programs, Adult Arts & Performing Arts & Sports Programs; Adult & Youth Special Interest Programs, Skating & Hockey Programs and Swimming Programs. A 28 page brochure is available and it outlines every program in detail together with items of interest to residents of Pickering. These brochures can be mailed to town residents by calling 683- 2760, or you can collect one from the Municipal Office on Brock Road & Hwy. No. 2. 10 Wad. Sept. 2, 1081 THE POST Paps 7 by George Ashe, MPP Durham West To ensure that the loan program best serves the need of the entire community, loans will not be available for 'adult only' or 'luxury' buildings. In addition, the program does not apply to condominiums, non-profit or cooperative hous- ing developments. At present the program is targeted for low -vacancy ur- ban areas, like the greater Metro Toronto area, Kitchener, Sudbury and Thunder Bay. Assistance will be extended to smaller and rural communities where a need for rental housing exists. The Ontario Rental Construction Loan Program will be administered with a minimum of red tape by the Ontario Mortgage Corporation. Regulations will be limited to allow the private sector the greatest possible flexibility in ensur- ing that rental units will be built as quickly as possible. All construction funded by the program must still meet municipal and provincial building guidelines. New construction projects eligible for funds must contain at least six units. Loans are also available for the conver- sion of existing non-residential properties, such as schools or commercial buildings, into rental housing. The Ontario Rental Construction Loan Program will benefit both tenants and landlords, as well as the whole community, by encouraging the construction industry to build affordable housing in the areas that need it most. isteListen to the commission's lawyer: "Property y are superseded be traditional political liberties." What kind of convoluted nonsense is that' If property rights are not a traditional political liberty, then what is? Listen to the commission report: Newspapers are "not like other business ventures" and the definition of the public good cannot be put in terms of dollars and cents. The public good "has to do with the number of and quality of in- dependent voices funding expression, voices undaunted and undiminished by dollar concerns." Presumably this means that the public who buys and reads newspapers are not wise enough to decide what the public good is. Another voice, perhaps a bureaucrat, perhaps a member of a Royal Com- mission, will decide which voices have quality and which number of voices is adequate. The saddest aspect of the report is that it goes after one of the most important and prestigious newspapers in the coun- try - The Globe and Mail. Its recent success - and future plana - would be impossible were it not for the money it has access to as a member of a large chain The Globe has recently presented a conservative editorial policy.

Sept. 24 19111 Scarborough Board Of Health Ignorance toward rabid animals cause for concern The public's less than knowledgeable reaction to wild animals, and tie increased incidence of rabies has prorated Scarborough Board of Health to post warning signs in parks and residential areas throughout the borough, explained Scarborough Medical Officer of Health, Dr.Keith Fit- zgerald. To date 13 skunks and one bat have been proven rabid in Scarborough but the biggest concern is the fact that cur- rently 23 people are undergoing treatment after coming in contact with these animals. "This is a rather unprecedented action ( posting the signs) but was promoted by some of the horror stories we were getting on the indifference of the public to wild animals," Fitzgera;d told Scarborough Board of Health. The rabies signs were posted 4ug.13-14 in Birkdale ravine, Thomson Park and Bendale ravine and surrounding residential neighbourhoods because of the high concentra- tions of rabid animals and the number of people coming in contact in those particular areas of the borough. "So many people were coming in contact, particularly in Thomson Park we had to notify the people of the problem," said Fitzgerald. Hospital funding needs re-evaluations,says MOH The manner in which hospital construction and expansion projects are currently funded is outdated and needs to be Fall Check -Up - --, includes " C Oil and Filter h+om $14.95 "i W..wv AO .

Today hospitals are funded one-third by the local or municipal government and two-thirds by the province, and, says Fitzgerald it's just not working. In downtown Toronto three hospitals, Wellesley, Toronto Western, and Toronto General are trying to raise $22 million in order to finance expansion, but Fitzgerald says the money is going to be hard to come up with. "$22 million is a lot of money to raise in Toronto let alone elsewhere, to fund expansion," said Fitzgerald. He said a worse situation is going to occur in Scar- borough where four hospitals are now seeking funds from the borough to finance construction. Fitzgerald told Scarborough Board of Health a contingent of Scarborough Council and board of health members will go before the province and explain, "The borough can no longer fund capital projects for hospitals. Further testing of McClure residents unfounded The decision by Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Tom Wells, to continue testing McClure Cres. residents for ex- posure to radiation has been described as a political move by Scarborough Medical Officer of Health Dr.Keith Fit- zgerald. The saga of McClure Cres. began earlier this year when it was discovered the soil in resident's backyards was radioactive. Twenty-six children and one adult in the neighbourhood were tested to see if they had been affected by exposure to the soil, but all tests proved negative. However, Wells went along with the idea for continuing testing only to satisfy the unfounded concerns of residents, says Fitzgerald. "'!$here is no medical justification, at this time, to test anymore chikh-en," said Fitzgerald. UFFI concenn blown out of proportion Dr.Keith Fitzgerald, Scarborough Medical Officer of Health, said the problem with Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation (UFFI) has been greatly exagerated and given more attention than it is due. ..Much more has been made of UFFI insulation than needs be," Fitzgerald told Scarborough Board of Health. "This is probably best exemplified by the large percentage of people who have this insulation in their homes who are quite satisfied. When this matter is finally solved the m..- jority of homeowners with this insulation willhave no eom- pleints „ The Ontario Mirnitry of Health has completed testing 20 homes in Scarborough, clerking for concentrations of for- maldehyde gas, but has yet to prescribe an acceptable stan- dard level. The medical officer of health suggests if the public has any questions concerning removal of UFFI from their An Advertisement in our newspapers is a REMINDER about your merchandise and services!

The horse which showed symptoms of rabies on Aug -12, had to be destroyed two days later and tests proved the horse had contracted the deadly disease. Other horses of the camp are under quarantine but show no signs of being affected. Although none of the 50 or so being treated were bitten by the horse, Dr.Keith Fitzgerald, Medical Officer of Health for Scarborough explained rabies virus can be passed on just by coming in contact with the sick animal. "Just touching or petting the sick animal can transmit the virus," said Fitzgerald, "it can be transmitted through broken skin or the mucous membrane in the mouth." Fitzgerald also pointed out that it is not uncommon for horses or cattle to have rabies because they are out all night and exposed to wild animals. Restaurant failed to comply, fined $1,000 Millie's restaurant on Old Kingston Rd. was fined $1,000 for failing to comply with an order by the Scarborough Medical Officer of Health. The restaurant had been ordered to clean-up after being found in violation of eight health board standards, including no soap, broken sinks, taps and urinals and lack of adequate towelling in the washrooms. The Medical Officer issued the clean-up order but the restaurant owner failed to comply, charges were laid and the case was taken to court. When the court date came up the resatuarant owner didn't show, the court was sympathetic to the health depart- ments evidence and handed down the $1,000 fine, the largest ever in Scarborough. The health department plans to go to Millie's this week to assess the clean-up operation but health communicator Paul Higgins assured no matter what the state, a closure or would not be issued. Committee will examine Health Protection Act The Scarborough Board of Health has established a com- mittee, headed by Joe Bonney, which will examine the pro- posed Health Protection Act to determine areas of uncer- tainty or unclarity and forward concerns to Dr.Gord Mar- tin, director of provincial public health for the Ontario Ministry o[ Health. Dr.Keith Fitzgerald, Scarborough Medical Officer of Health went over the Health Protection Act and felt it left a number of important questions unanswered, such as the role of the public nurse, how the board of health was to be appointed and who they were responsible to. Board members agreed these questions must be answered so they've set up a committee to look at these questions and draft a letter which will fust go to Scar- borough Cauncil for endorsement and then to Dr.Martin. Centennial Rouge United Church "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Most of us have grown up with a knowledge of this Golden Rule. This was not something new that Jesus passed on to mankind - similar wise say- ings were known to most countries. The Greeks, even Con- fucius spoke the same adage only in its negative form. In the negative form it was just another law but when Jesus changed over to the positive it became something more. It is not too hard not to do things to our fellow man but turning it around makes it much harder to follow. Let us all try to practice it a litUe more often. ..You must lase your life in order to find it", was another saying of Jesus. We sometimes feel that in our lifetime there are many roads to travel and it is hard to choose; however, there are really only two choices. One is to lead a Royal Gate Apartments - Retirement Association of Royal York Rd. in West. $6,922 to expand and i h - prove an existing program to include billiards, shuf- fleboard, darts, physical fitness, ceramics, lectures and special lunches. Not So Young Club of Knox Ave. in Weston, $2,664 to expand an existing crafts program to include sewing, dressmaking, quilting, ceramics and rug Cliffwwood Choral Group of Don Mills Rd. in Willowdale, $4,710 to establish a choir. life of selfishness which might lead to fame, fortune and recognition. The other is a road of service in which the traveller decides to do as much for his fellow man as he possibly can and work in fields which will help humanity. One does not have to live in poverty in order to do dus-everyone is entitled to a decent living but it is also possible to serve our Lord and our world wide neighbours. These were the thoughts gathered from the past two weeks' sermons and next week, Labour Day weekend, it is fitting to study the quote The labourer is worthy of his hire". Just one more week and things will be back to nor- mal routine once more with services reverting to the 11 o'clock time and we hope a N numnber of vacationers Will be back in the pews.

'I intend to take this matter before the Legisla- tion Committee to consider the details in respect to any legal ramifications that may be involved,.' he said. Sutherland said the en- trance fees could probably be held to si with Bingo cards selling at 25 seats each. In the Municipal Building there would be accor oda- boa for over 600 people and over 300 available parking spaces. In addition, there is a senior citizen's complex near the Municipal Buildings with over 30o people, thus providing easy access for bingo fans from that building' Sutherland said the whole Bingo con- cept taking place in the Municipal Building is in line with council's basic desire to make our growing civic centre a people place. "I have discussed this with the Mayor and we have agreed that the North York share of the proceeds would be applied toward obtaining a much desired stadium in our City," the controller said. Other proceeds being utilized by the Royal Cana- dian Legion would be used to support two senior citizen's homes, sports teams and other wor- thwhile cultural activities in the City of Nath York.

Water Slide Project by Gay Abbate If you are frustrated by long drives to take your children to entertainment areas featuring water slides, your problem may soon be over. A new project featuring water slides is being plum- ed for Military Trail Park in Scarborough. The project, the brain- child of George Macey Ltd., will have three slides, all graded according to age. A pathway will lead through the showers to the top of the slides. A special attraction for both parents and children is the set en- trance fee, $2 for the morn- ing session, $3 for the after- noon or evening session or $5 for the entire day. The one fee wil entitle each person to unlimited use of the slides. The project. estimated to cost about :600,000, will be built by Plexa Waterslides, a firm with international experience. One of their projects was the slide at Disneyworld. The slides will be built to silt the specific site at Military Trail Park and will include special safety features. A nurse will be in attendance for anyone re- quiring medical assistance. With an operating budget of 8200.000, the organizers anticipate 1500-2000 riders per day, depending on the weather. The project will employ 30 - 50 Scarborough students for part-time work during the summer. One mcmming per we& will be devoted, f of charge, to handicapped and retarded children. The organizers will be stu- dying the future possibility of lasing adjacent vacant lands for winter recrea- tional facilities. Q�-42 PsMWIPMrnOn Wad.
