Construction workers and hydro employees leaving their work sites travel nor- thbound on Sandy Beach Rd. to Bayly St. However, there is insufficient capaci- ty at this signalized in- tersection for the abrupt in- crease in traffic, leading to long back-ups on sandy Beach Rd. In order to get around this traffic tie-up many motorists have been un n - mg at intersecting local streets and travelling through the residential area to Liverpool Rd. Currently northbound left turns have been prohibited in the afternoon rurshborr at this intersection, however, in the absence of constant police enforce- ment the regulations are oflm ignored When police presence is evident, motorists drive beyond the intersection, make a U-turn and then make a southbound right turn. It is hoped this by-law and constant police enforce- ment will pert an end to this One Bay Ridges resident, Ralph Bradley of 691 Alder - wood Place, did not think this was the answer to the traffic problem and said it would be a great inncomoe- nience to residents. "my concern is I don't think this way of going about it is going to solve it, it's just going to shut off two good streets," Bradley said Bradley suggested that perhaps a police officer could be placed on the cor- ner to control the traffic lights and allow the large amounts of hydro traffic to get through. Firefighting Costs Increase Pickering Council will in- crease firefighting charges to Uxbridge Township to $3,000 a year, up from the present $M fee. This is the first increase in service costs since 1973 when the $900 deal was struck. At that time hourly charges for time spent at the blaze were set at $150 for the first hour plus $110 for every additional hour. • Under the new deal Ux- bridge will pay Pickering $360 for the first hour and $250 for additional time spent at the fire.

Oct. 21, 1961 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Here's An Answer We editorial types are always dishing out advice to politicinas and others about what they should do about this and that. But the current economics in Canada seems to suggest that we ought to come up with a whole plan of salva- tion inasmuch as Pierre T'nideau and Co. seem to lack ideas. So here goes. We have seen the government at Ottawa setting the bank rate every Thursday for months. So we know Ottawa could set the bank rate at any amount it wishes. Currently the Bank of Canada policy is to use the bank rate to curb mfal- tion. In our opinion this policy has failed and is too simplistic to do this wort, but Ottawa blindly carries on. Because much of our money problem is stimulated by American government moves, and because the U.S. government seems unsympathetic to Canada looking after its own interest, we make the following suggestions to the Tr udeau government: 1. Establish foreign exchange controls to stop the move- ment of large money leaving the country via U.S. corpora- tions. This will stabilize our dollar while we correct the bank rate. 2. Lower our bank rate .5% each Thursday until it is down to a reasonable amount, such as 10%. 3. Place controls on the importation of U.S. goods and ser- vices until we balance our trade with them. 4. Slash federal spending immediately, even if it hurts, in order to begin to balance the books and therefore correct the greatest cause of inflation–government overspending. If any reader likes this answer why not cut out this opinioin and send it to your favourite MP at Ottawa. It might help. ------------- Not The Way Alan Robuism. our MPP for Scarborough -Ellesmere, is busy working up support for a private member's bill in the Ontario Legislature which would make child restraint man- datory for children under 6 years of age in a car. Apparently a large number of people showed up at his seminar on this topic. and certainly there is no one who would oppose giving safety to any persons, !dally young Frankly, though. we've had it up to our eyes with legisla- tion to compell us humans to do this and that for our own good. It seems ridiculous that we must pass a law to cam- pell parents. for example. to package their infants in the family car so they are safe if there is an accident or mishap. There are not many parents who would want to allow in- juries to occur to their children. Of course. there are always people who don't care - even parents, and there are those who can't be bothered with pet- ty details - but these kind of people are always with us. Sometimes we also have a habit of forgetting important details in the mad dash to meet deadlines in our daily lives. However, we would think that those people who don't care, people or who forget or are rushed, will be the same generally who will do so whether we have a law or not. So we ask ourselves a question. Does a law for this sort of self- help really work? Does it make people do things they wouldn't have done otherwise? Frankly. we don't think so. We believe that a campaign of public relations by the government would be more constructive than a neat set of laws which police offices will now find hardy for stopping motorists for one more infraction of the law. We believe that government should pass laws to regulate society from chaos or stopping one person from causing physical or mental harm to another. But we really don't believe we should keep passing laws to help the individual protect himself or herself. Surely some responsibility must rest on the individual shoulders of people in society. We really don't believe that government should intrude in- to the person or family's existence because that is the road to more and more laws to contrail individuals and that to urs is dictatorship. Cautious Hunting The hunters of Ontario are probably the only people who are welcoming the cooler weather and longer nights. Put those two things together, add the trees changirhg color and you have the onset of hunting season. The Ontario Provincial Police have a few ideas which could mean a more successful and enjoyable hunt this fall. Guns and alcohol are a bad combination.

In a report released by a GPMC task force examining the effects of government policies on grocery product marketing, supply management marketing boards are said to have had "by far the greatest impact'. on the Canadian food system of any federal or provincial government pohcv. The task force's interim report, issued Bowing a special meeting of the GPMC Board of Directors, disclosed that the association's economic consultants had conchided that sup- ply management policies are costing Canadian families an extra $10 per year for broiler chickens, or a total of $76,500.000 annually, and an additional $7.00 per family per year for eggs, or a total of $55,500,000 annually. confFleischmann, president of the GPMC, told a news erence that supply management marketing boards could be costing Canadian consumers a total of $1 billion per year in additional food bills. "By far the greatest threat to Canada's food future comes from the system of supply management marketing boards which dictate production, and set prices, for some 24 per- cent of all Canadian agricultural production," Mr. Fleischmann said. He said that while the GPMC recognizes the need of Cana- dian farmers for stable markets and a fair return on their efforts, this can be better achieved through securing larger markets for both primary producers and processors. Mr. Fleischmann said the three chief effects of the present supply management system are higher consumer food bills, a rising tide of imported food, and an inability of Canadian farmers and processors to expand their markets. "Conti ary to popular opinion, the GPMC Task Force has — — — — — — — — — — — — — are part of most camp life, but they should be kept until the hunting day is over. You have to be stone-cold sober to pro- tect yourself in the bush. Once you are off the beaten trail, the Nish areas of Ontario become a hostile environment. Again the knowledgeable hunter has the advantage; he'll carry a map, a compass and a survival kit. If be loses his bearings, be stands a much better chance of getting back to camp. One last tip. Anyone who is thinkirig of getting a new rifle or shotgun for the hunting season must have a firearms ac- quisition certificate. If you don't have one already, give yourself some time to go through this formality before your hunt. You can apply for the certificates at any police office and they are good for five years. It's the successful hunts that are best remembered It's also the hunting tragedies that are never forgotten. With forethought, good planning, and an awareness of what could go wrong, you have all the ingredients for a memorable hunting season. Carrier Routes Open! Deliver this newspaper to homes and apartments EARN EXTRA MONEY for information Call 291-2583 found that Canada is not a bountiful producer of virtually unlimited stipplies of food,.. Mr. Fleischmann said. "It is only our surplus in the world grain trade that provides us with a favourble balance in agri-food products. "Canada is in fact a heavy importer of mantdactured foods, fresh produce, semi -processed foods and raw agricultural commodities. Canada is becoming more and more dependent on other countries for its food, mainly because government policies have pushed up the price of Canadian farm products to the point where we are no longer competitive with producers and processors from other countries.' Mr. Fleischmann said Canada imported $745 million more of manufactured and processed foods than it sold abroad in 1980, despite an 83 cent dollar. and that last year's total culminated a decade of worsening trade statistics for the food industry. He said the GPMC was concerned that the food and beverage industry may be unable to continue to provide food at present favourable price levels. Canadians spent on- ly 17.2 per of their disposable income on food in 1980, and profits in the food industry dropped from 2.59 cents per dollar of sales in 1978 to 2.36 cents last veer.

Oct. 21, 1901 THE NEWMVST Papa 3 North Desmign 82 Carmoval North York will call upon the services of a profes- sional graphic arts com- pany to gn a mascot for the 1982%ter Carnival. The cost to developing the mascot will range from $5,000 to $1,000, and this price will include research, rough and finished submis- sions, final drawings, art- work and correct type face for letterhead, stationary and advertising as well as a three dimensional toy con- cept and complete copyright. Controller Bob Yuill sug- gested perhaps the city should consider holding a design competition and putting up a $1,000 prize, rather than paying the ex- pensive fees charged by graphic arts studios. Yuill noted that this ap- proach had been very suc- cessful in developing a logo for the city.

M, 1141 Bill Watt's World BOOK WORLD: Martin Yan is the host of T.V.'s popular Yan Can show on which, employing a funny but highly improbable ac- cent, he demonstrates Oriental cuisine. Of course tie-in cookbooks are in- evitable (cookbooks, after all, are among the best of sellers) . The fust was The Joy of Wokking. Now we've received the second along with a spiffy promotional Chbiese fan. It (the book) is titled The Yan Can Cook Book. It's an excellent collection of information on Oriental cookery and delicious, easy recipes. Well written, witty too. It should be in almost every kitchen but many cooks will not, we suspect, bother with it. You see, a good cookbook should lend itself to actual use in the kitchen! It should have a ting spine in acdes for it to be laid flat, it should have heavy pages (fa easy turning) that are easy to clean ( laminated) . Yan Can has neither of these features and it's dif- ficult to use practically.

One shrinks in horror at the thought that maybe Doubleday intends just that. Humankind is naturally curious. That, after all is how we came to be humankind. Satan's un - sated curiosity led to a presumption of equality, dismissal from Paradise and his subsequent corrup- tion of mankind's pro- genitors into what we are Pretty high blown stuff but necessary, we believe, to make our point that too many continue to be wor- dinately curious. That would seem to be the only explanation for the continu- ing popularity of biographies, even of those who don't really deserve more than a few lines in a reference book. Consider Grace Metallious. It was she who, about a quarter century ago, wrote the wildly suc- cessful Peyton Place, a story of the violence and corruption that can exist even in a small, supposedly peaceful, rural coiummi- ty. Though not wen written it was decidedly spicy for the time and catapulted the school teacher's wife into a fame that she could not handle. She died a virtual prisoner of alcohol. Tragic indeed but not unknown in the world of arts and let - tem.

If you find that difficult to believe, then try reading her biography. We did, were bored and wonder why the book had to be written at all. To be fair, we did find a piece of information that was interesting. Regular readers will recall our pleasure about a year ago at seeing Chesapeake Cavalier by Don Tracy again in print. We wondered what had hap- pened to Mr. Tracy. It seems that he died in 1976 at age 71. Before his death however, he ghost wrote, under the name of Roger Fuller, the Peyton Place spin offs. He needed the money but not so badly ap- parently that he would use his own name. Dashhmn Hammett most definitely is deserving of biographical treatment. In Shadow Man (Academic Press, Canada) we have what one previous reviewer has stated to be "the seminal book on Ham- mett". Well, maybe but we are rather much disinclin- ed so to regard it. What we wanted was some insight into why this man chose in his later life to espouse the cause of the left. What we did not want was a virtual precis of all his writings. Our thought is that most readers will fed the same way. We don't need phot lines of Mr. Hammett's writings. We've already read them and don't need them explained. We repeat, what is needed and wanted is some greater explana- tion of his later life's philosophies and activities. Author Richard Layman doesn't give it and the book suffers. We suspect that somewhere in writer's heaven Dash is smiling wryly over the earnest at- tempts of Mr. Layman to delineate his character and his total failure to do so. And since we're being real bitchy, right we suggest that Layman learn the perfectly fundamental dif- ference between mad and NaM ]NO You'll find a friend where you see this sign.

ON RECORD: Glenn Yar- borough's latest album has just been released by A. & M. It's called Just A Little Love and it should sell well. Mr. Yarborough has a devoted following that goes back all the way to his days with the Limelites<s. His tremolo has never par- ticularly appealed to this corner but one cannot deny the purity of his voice and the drama of his phrasing both of which qualities are in abundant evidence here. The songs are largely un- familiar (to us at any rate) and not particularly melodic. But, they're plea- sant and are badkgrounded by some good choral and arhestral arrangements. The title sang is the best but ruining it a close se- cond is Something About A Woman In Love. Glen Yarborough's sing- ing is quite clear and one knows every word that he sings. Nevertheless, we found ourself wishing that a lyric sheet was a part of the package. All in all however, a good album and recommended by us.

UFFI Problems Aired Nov.2 By Gar Abbots Scarborough residents whose hones have been in- sulated with urea for- maldehyde foam ( UFFI ) will have an opportunity to discuss their problems with Scarborough Council at a special night meeting on Nov. 2. The request for a night meeting was made by Patricia Clark who wants Scarborough Council to support her resolution to request the federal govern- ment to instigate a buy- back program for homes with L-FF'I. This resolution would re- quest the manufacturer of UFFI and the federal government to have the in- sulation removed at no ex- pense to the homeowner and have the home restored to its condition before the iussulation was installed. Any new insula- tion would be paid by the homeowner. Many homeowners with UFFI have requested that their homes be reassessed because they are unable to sell them. Even real estate agents are refusing to list UFFI homes. If all the homes with UF - FI in Scarborough are re- assessed, it will mean a kiss of tax -revenue and borough treasurer, R. Ar- nold, told Board of Control that Scarborough should approach other levels of government to pick up the tax revenue shortfall due to re -assessment. UFFI consists of a resin, a foaming agent and air ponents are combined under pressure, they harden into a rigid substance. However, UFFI releases vapor of "off -gassing" dur- aits o and can continue todososo indefinietly due to such fac- tors as humidity. Some symptoms of ex- posure to UFFI are respiratory problems, nausea, headaches, nosebleeds and skin pro- blems.

DDWS 8252288 71 King St. E. 368-1797 NEW RECREATION COM- PLEX A couple of weeks ago I had a conducted tour of the new Scarborough Village Recreational Complex be- ing built at the corner of Markham and Kingston Rds. This centre is going to be one of the most complete recreational facilities in Scarborough. Not only will there be ice rinks but, there will be senior citizens areas, gymnasiums for judo and weightlifting and other things. The main interest for me is the community theatre which will be used mainly as a replacement for Playhouse 66. It must be remembered that the theatre is still very much under construction. It is not fair, therefore, to be too critical until opening night. But, I was somewhat disappointed. For I fear it is too small. Seating will be less than 200 and that is not For some reason, Scar- borough does not believe that the locals will support local talent. They seem to think that we still prefer to drive all the way to Toronto to see a show. We need a well -fitted, comfortable house with a capacity of about 500 at least. My other complaint is that the seating is too steep. This makes the open stage look like a pit. From the top it you will be looking down on the actors. Like being in "The Gods" in a LAndon theatre. It is time that we realized that we are buisbng to become a 'city' of 420.000 plus. Maybe the name borough causes our ambi- tions to be overlooked. ANOTHER OPENING The Scarborough Music Theatre will kick off its final season in Playhouse 66 with its first-ever presentation of a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. The show is the famous Broadway musical and later film success, 111E KING AND I'. Liz Clark will be featured as Area and the King will be played by David James.

An army oversight has been keeping Pidrreu, 7o, waiting 15 years to receive his long service medal, but after numerous inquiries and finally a letter to Quem Elizabeth his wait is over. Pickrell began his career in the Canadian Armed Farces in 1900 with the 3rd Canadian Machine Gun Caps but after three years service the unit was disbanded, so Pickrell packed up his gear and moved on to the Royal Hamilton LigM Infantry - Wentworth Regiment. After putting in another three years service, that regiment (which was established for peace time activities) was disassembl- ed as the threat of war became a reality in Canada. Like all young men of his time Pickrell was quick to volunteer to serve overseas. However three weeks prior to his unit voyage to Britain it was discovered Pickrell had asthma and he was releas- ed and sent to tend the ar- my's greenhouses in Hamilton. But as the war raged on in Europe, Pickrell was bold growing flowers was not essential to the war ef- fort and he was given an opportunity to serve his country in an "unofficial position".

If we can believe the Farmer's Almanac (and they have been right about the mild winter so far), the ski hills will be alive with the sound of skiers in February and March. The lack of snow this season has been a financial strain not only on ski resorts and ski instructors but also on many ski shops. As the stores have to clear the un- sold stock, the sales this year may be particularly tempting. With ski equipment nor- mally ranging between $400 (for beginners) and $2,000 (for professionals), with con- siderable skiing expenses, and with next seasons equip- ment prices expected to rise by about 12 per cent, alpine or downhill skiing has be- come one of the most ex- pensive sports. Considering these high costs and the risks involved in downhill skiing, the con- sumer has to be concerned with getting the best advice regarding safety of the equip- ment available.

The equipment consists of five elements: boots, bind- ings, skis, poles, and ski stoppers or brakes. It is im- portant that everything suits the skier and the purpose, for maximum safety. Many sporting go )ds sales people have an ali-around knowledge of sports equip- ment without specializing in any one field. However, stores that specialize in ski equipment employ special- ists with a high degree of ski technique. Consumers who don't know much about ski equipment should consult Ontario M ulficultural Theatre Celebrates 1 0th Anniversary Ten ethtno•cultural theatre groups will celebrate the 10th Anniversary of their Festival at the St. Lawrence Centre Town Hall from Oct 31 to Nov. 27. The Festival opens on Sat. Oct. 31 with a performance in English " Ibe Day My Granddad Died", written by Michael John Nimchuk. This moving and humorous drama celebrates the true, often fogotten pioneers who played such a great part in cultivating their new homeland.This play wW be followed by nine other plays per- formed in English, Czech, Spanish, Latvian, Hungarian, Ukrainian, Italian and Finnish. Prior to the Festival open- ing production, there will be a dinner -reception at the Westin Hotel starting at 4:30 p.m., which will be at- tended by speakers representing various le"Is of government - these professionals. Employees in a specialized ski shop need a good knowl- edge of physics, chemistry and anatomy to know the effects of speed and stress on the foot, the boot, the binding, the skis, safety straps or brakes, poles — in short, they have to know every aspect of skiing. Straps — or brakes? Only a year ago, the Min- istry of Consumer and Com- mercial Relations amended The Elevator and Lift Act to allow alpine skiers to use tows and lifts without the traditional safety or reten- tion straps and instead equip their skis with brakes or ski stoppers. The straps were designed mainly to keep skis from falling off while skiers are using tows and lifts, and from injuring anyone on the slopes below, or to keep skis from sliding downhill alone in the event of a fall, injuring other skiers. These straps, however, proved to be rather hazard- ous in a fall: the skis re- mained attached to the skier, creating a so-called wind - milling action and often se- riously injuring the skier in the downhill tumble. The brakes, or ski stop - pen, prevent this type of ac- cident. When the skier falls, the foot is released from the ski. the stoppers, working on a spring action, pop out and stop the ski from sliding down, the hill This way. !h - fall is not compounded by cuts and hits from the skis, and there are no runaway skis. Safety first Although statistics show- ing a difference in safety be- tween brakes and retention straps are not yet available, the industry has no doubts about the superiority of the brakes in terms of safety and convenience. In the past year, sales of skis with brakes or stoppers have far out- numbered sales of retention straps, although the brakes are considerably more ex- pensive than the straps. Skiers with older skis have the option of continuing to use the straps, or they can have their skis outfitted with the new stoppers at a spe- cialized ski shop. Using the brakes, the pos- sibility of skis becoming loose while the skier is riding a tow or lift still exists, es- pecially when the skis are knocked together to shake off snow or slush. However, the risks of a ski falling from a chairlift and hitting a skier below are considered mini- mal compared to the dis- advantages of the retention straps. To prevent skis from be- coming loose, it is important to have the correct tension on the bindings. If there is not enough tension, the ski will become loose; too much tension will not release the ski Orr est- ­tf -in accident The correct tension depends on the skier's weight and ability; again, check with the professionals. The consumer ministry offers the following tips to consumers who want to take advantage of ski sales: • When choosing ski equipment, consider safety first. Keep the pleasure in skiing; don't complicate it with an accident caused by unsuitable equipment. • Get the best advice. Spe- cialized ski shops have pro- fessional employees who can advise you on all aspects of ski safety, who are certified binding installers and who know what kind of equip- ment is best for you. • Comparison shop. Ski- ing is an expensive sport, and even specialized ski shops can very in price and service. Deal with a ski shop you can trust and that is happy to give you after -sale service. And last but not least, have a cafe ski season.

Bargains in Caribbean Travel Now There are big bargains go- ing in the Caribbean this time of year as tour groups attempt to fill those vacan- cies in their charter trips to the warm lands in the south. If anyone can get the time off, November, December and January are good mon- ths to high -tail it down to those lovely islands where the weather is reliable and warm. The word from Jamaica is that it is trying to rebuild its tourist business and visitors from the north are being wooed to this tropical ;green and mountainous island. There are really four Jamaicas - each distinct from the other three. Montego Bay is the familiar one to tourists, although Ocho Rios is a popular spot as well. Less known to tourists are the two areas of Port An- tonio and Kingston. Montego Bay's name comes from the Spanish word for lard or 4.manteca", which is hard- ly a romantic name to give to this lovely area with its 150 hotels, guest houses, villas and apartments. There is room for them all Jack Miner's Birds by Brian Preston Most Ontarians share a lasting childhood memory — the faint distant honking that caused them to tilt their necks back and lift their eyes skyward. The sand would build to a cacophony as a flock of Canada geese passed overhead in two long rippl- ing lines that met to form a giant V. That this sight remains just as common today as it ever was is a tribute to the dedication of the earliest conservationists, among them Canada's renowned naturalist, Jack Miner. Jack Miner's memory lives onat the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary, on the site of the or4inal Miner hWM near Kingsville, Ontario. Every spring and fall since the fust decade of this cen- tury Canada geese have passed through here on their migrations up and down the continent. It was way back in 1904 that Jade Miner fust decid- ed to turn his family's small farm into a sanc- tuary for ducks and geese. In all that time. there have been only two men in charge of the sanctuary. Jack died in 1944; since then his eldest son Manley has been on hand to play host to the thousands of ducks and geese that pass through each year. At the ripe old age of 83, Manley shows no siigns of slowing dawn- "I'm still do- ing as much as I was 25 and the only Montego Bay beach that could be described as crowded is the renowned Doctor's Cave. There everyone visits at least once to ogle everybody else while bask- ing in the purest, clearest, most exhilarating water in the entire Caribbean. Also it is in the centre of town within easy access to a number of hotels and charming shopping plazas. Two airports receive jets from abroad. One is the Sir Donald Sangster Airport and the other is at Kingston, capital of the island. Return Twice A Year Years ago," he announces Proudly. He still helps feed the big honkers in the spr- ing and fall, showing visitors around and impar- ting bits of his vast knowledge of the birds and their habits. For example, did you know that ducks take a new mate every year, but Canada geese mate for life? That from the time the Canada geese leave their nesting grounds on the astern shore of Hudson's Bay till they reach the sanctuary, they fly distances of up to 1,609 km (1,000 miles) non-stop. Much of this knowledge is a result of a brainstorm Jack had way beck in 1909, to wrap small bands of aluminium around the legs of the geese. Each tag was stencilled with the 11[iaer address and a brief bit of scripture. 'ibis was the first use of banding to trace the migration routes of birds. 'Ilse tradition has been carried on to the present. Manley's brother Jasper, a mere youth at 70, has band- ed over 81,000 ducks and geese in his lifetime. The bands have been returned from as far away as the Arctic Circle and South America. The fust band, put on a black duck named Katie in the fall of 1909, and return- ed by a bunter in South Carolina in January 1910, is now on display in a now museum at the refuge, along with many other mementos of Jack Miner's life and information displays on the habits of his beloved birds. There is no charge for ad- mission, either to the sanc- tuary or the museum, in keeping with Jade Miner's wishins expressed in will, that therebe '- De place on earth where no money changes hands." The refuge is closed on Sun- days as Jack has passed on a devout Christian faith to his sans. The sanctuary itself is 300 acres of fields and ponds. In the summer, it is closed to the public as corn and grasses are grown for the return of the geese. Jasper does the farming and Manley does the books for the philanthropic that that now operates the refuge. In the fall, beginining in early October an the weather and the moon ( they prefer to fly by the light of a full moon, says Manley), the geese start arriving from the north. They may stay for just a day or two, or a few weeks, depending on their disposi- tion. Although Manley elai that a few "early birds" always show up in Wed.

It's then that you'll witness what Manley calls, in the matter-of-fact man- ner of an air traffic can- trdler, "the 4 p.m. flight". As many as 15,000 dudes and geese may be in the air at the same time, rebuming from Lake Erie, 3.2 km ( 2 miles ) to the south, to the sanctuary for the 4:30 feeding.

Hedou Accountants Body Proposes New Standards Authority TORONTO -- Formation of an independent standard- setting body for accounting has been proposed by the 10,000 -member Canadian Certified General Account- ants' Association. To be known as the Accounting Standards Authority of Canada, the new group would oversee the development of stan- dards for financial, manag- erial and non-profit accoun- ting practices. 'Accounting standards affect everyone in bus- iness," said James L. Denholme, CCGM president, who unveiled the plan at a Toronto news conference. In Canada, he said, the standard-setting role has been asumed by the Ac- counting Research Com- mittee of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. This group consists of = members, all Toiler Cranston To Star With Ice Capades Maple Leaf Gardens, in association with Ice Capades, announces that Toiler Cranston has been signed to headline the ice spectacular coming to Maple Leaf Gardens Tues.

Children will especially enjoy "The Wizard of Ah's", a superb adaptation of the well- known classic. On the lighter side, acrobats, ice clowns and the amazing 12 -year old juggler David Lee will all be on hand to entertain au- diences with their special brand of ice humour.

'The Canadian Certified General Accountants' Association believes the time has come for others to take an active role in standard-setting and that effective participation should go beyond the ac- counting profession to include users as well as preparers of financial information,' Mr. Den- bolme said. As envisioned, the pro- posed new Accounting Standards Authoritv would have a broadly-based membership to take in all these diverse and varied interests. Its board of directors would include five mem- bers from each of the Canadian Certified General Accountants' Association, Canadian Institute of Char- tered Accountants and Society of Management Accountants of Canada (RIA); three represent- atives from the Canadian Academic Accounting Association; and a repres- entative from each of the following organizations: Comptroller General of Canada, provincial Treas- ury Boards, Municipal Finance Officers' Asso- ciation, Canadian Feder- ation of Independent Business, Canadian Chamber of Commerce, Canadian Manufacturers' Association, Consumers' Association of Canada, Canadian Labor Congress, Canadian Bar Association, Canadian Bankers' Asso- ciation, Financial Execu- tive Institute, Canadian Council of Financial Analysts, Co-operative Union of Canada, Institute of Internal Auditors, Investment Dealers' Assoc- iation of Canada, Retail Merchants' Association of Canada, Canadian Co- operative Credit Society Ltd., Administrative Sciences Association of Canada.

A perennial favorite of mine is an Old Country Trifle, which is easy to make but always makes a tasty impression on family and mealtime guests alike. The ingredients are normally available in most Canadian kitchens and home chefs can M i employ their own per- k sonal artistry in decorating the surface of the finished trifle. A ` popular finishing touch of mine is to dot red pitted cherries and peach slides onto the top coating of whipped egg whites to provide a treat for the eye as well as the taste buds.

One reason for this is the cool weather experienc- ed during pear blossom time, which made the trees more difficult to pollinate. Look for Bose and Anjou pears during September and October, their peak season. Both varieties can be put into storage im- mediately after harvest in October. This makes some available during the winter months, and these are sometimes referred to as winter pears. Pears are always picked when they're still green. since they ripen from the inside out. If the pears were left on the tree until they showed signs of ripeness, they would ac- tually be overripe around the core. When choosing pears, check that the flesh around the stem yields to slight pressure. At home, unripened pears may be kept for up to two weeks in the refrigerator. Ripen a few pears at a time by keeping them at room temperature. To hasten their ripening, place the pears in a paper bag, but be sure to check the bag daily.

A variety of standing and select committees met throughout the summer months and one of these commit- tees is the Select Committee on Pensions. This Committee, comprised of twelve members represen- ting all three parties, has been reviewing the report and recommendations of the Royal Commission on the Status of Pensions in Ontario during their August and early September meetings. A variety of organizations were also represented at these meetings and presented their views regarding pension reform to the Select Committee. In 1771, inadequacies of the present pension system pro- mpted the Ontario Government to order the Royal Commis- sion investigation of the present system to assess its ade- quacy as well as the impact of a variety of pension plan financing options of the economy. Public input, in the form of hundreds of written and oral submissions which were presented during the course of the Commission's hearings, formed the basis of the 1978 recom- mendations which were published in February, 1961. Although major reforms were recommended, the various concerns which were brought to the Commission's attention must first be analysed before possible solutions can be sug- gested. A major concern of the Commission was the role which public and private pension plans should assume in the overall pension system. Critics of the employer-sponsored, or private plans, argue that adequate retirement income has not been provided due to the low level of coverage. In- dividuals who cue jobs frequently are particularly vulnerable under the private system and are often unable to transfer accrued credits to their new place of employment. A startling fact which also must be considered is that ap- proximately 1.5 million workers in the Province are not in- volved in either an employer-sponsored or a registered savings ip Another identified problem thlem area relates to the vesting re- quirement of existing pension programs. Under current legislation in Ontario, a worker's ability to collect employer contributions made on his behalf is deterred, or vested, un- til he reaches age 45 and has completed 10 years of service with the same employer. But many workers do not remain that long at one job, and it is felt that the vesting require- rrheht should be more flexible and take into account the reality of today's working environment. Keeping these concerns in mind, the Royal Commission has recommended the establishment of a Provincial Universal Retirement System (PURS) to protect all holiday from the routine of lunch packing and provides an opportunity for the children to have a change from sand- wiches. Profits from these sales are credited to the School Account to assist with various school expenses not covered by our Block Budget.

Ontario Riding t: I was shocked by the reaction of our Prime Minister to the recent Supreme Court ruling on the constitution. Scarcely after the ink of the decision was dry, Mr. Trudeau and his Justice Minister announced they would be going ahead with their plan of installing a Charter of Rights into Canada's Constitution in Britain and then repatriating it. Eight of our country's provincial governments and the Conservative Party in Ottawa simply want the constitution repatriated. Then a Charter of Rights can be installed as a purely Canadian decision. But this might mean Mr. Trudeau won't get the particular Charter of Rights that he wants. So last week Canadians were treated to some sick and hyprocritical rationaliza- tions. The Supreme Court ruled "conventions and traditions„ were ignored by the repatriation scheme. Justice Minister Jean Chretien said this didn't matter. Yet, prior to the rul- ing, he was saying conventions and traditions were quite important. He claimed they forced Britain's Parliament to pass his boss' plan without any trouble. The Prime Minister was essentially told by the Court that he has the legal authority to get his constitution. But he was also told that to do so would go against the very grain of the country. Pierre Trudeau's decision? "We must be prepared to do what the Supreme Court has indicated we have the authority to do." Canada is bigger than the personal retirement schedule of any one man. The Prime Minister could earn the esteem of the nation if he gracefully backed away from his personal timetable and negotiated with the provinces. My party will continue to advise him to do so. by George Ashe, MPP Durham West workers in Ontario. The PUBS plan would be mandatory for people aged 16 to 65, and would also be fully portable, immediately vested and locked -in. PURS contributions would be made in addition to Canada Pension Plan (CPP) deductions which are also mandatory, portable, vested and locked -in. This recommendation would solve the major problems of coverage and portabili- ty, but would result in additional costs for both employers and employees. An alternative recommendation was made suggesting in- creases in the rate of contributions to the Canada Pension Plan on a graduated basis, in order to keep this fund sol- vent. If contributions continue at the present rate, it is estimated that by 1966 the costs and benefits paid out will begin to exceed the contributions. Obviously, changes in the present pension system will not Like place without very careful consideration. After all, the costs of any proposed changes must be within the ability of the government, the taxpayer and the private sector to Although the Select Committee on Pensions is presently pre ar g an Interim Repot for consideration by the Fall Legislature, the wont of this Committee is by no means complete. Many members of the public still wish to express tbeir con- cerns about pension reform and as the provision of ade- quate retirement benefits is fundamental to the future welfare and security of all Ontarians, everyone's views are important. As a result of these summer meetings, the Select Commit- tee will be seeking approval of the Legislature to com- mence meetings early in 1982 in order that they may com- plete their work and table a final report and recommenda- tions. Please be assured that I will continue to keep you informed of the developments of this Committee. Pickering High School by Shawn Esatanhbra The Senior, Junior and Midget Girls' basketball teams were all successful in defeating their op- ponents from Anderson last Thursday. The Senior team had a strong first quarter but were pressured heavily throughout the rest of the gam. They managed to hang on for the win, with a score of 47-34. The jarhiar Same was a nail-biting one, right down to the homes. It took the team a while to get to their normally cootroll- edof ger, but they ed Ythrough to win 31-30. The Midgets hada very decisive win with a scare of 40-9. The experienced Pickering playas had an easy win over the less ex- perienced Anderson Midgets. The top scorer for the team was Linda Hart - jet with 20 points. The Pickering field hockey teams had no games last week to report on. They are practising a gnat deal for their upcom- ing L.O-S.S.A. and C.O.S.S.A. meets. Last Wednesday six members of the Pickering cross-country team took part in an invitational meet at Camp Samac. The meet was hosted by Eastdale. Tammy Roberts placed first in the junior division, and Kim Bates placed se- cond in the senior girls' category. Overall, the team did very well. On Oc- tober 2, the team will be participating in a meet hosted by Dumbarton at Petticoat Creek Conserva- tion Area. Mrs. Hill, who is a business teacher at the school, is coaching the team again this year. She says that the team may be small, but it has quality - not quantity. She thinks the team will have a good season. The L.O.S.S.A. meet will be held on Oc- tober 22, and C.O.S.S.A. will be on the 29th. The Pickering High School golf team won the L.O.S.S.A. championship. The members of the team were Mike Susko, Craig Fulton, Chris Strong, and Dave Cherry. The tourna- ment was held on September 30 at the Thunderbird Golf Club. Mike Susko shot the second lowest individual score of the tournament. The senior football team defeated Anderson on September 30, by a score of 36.0. Touchdowns were scored by Tim Coburn, Bruce McKenzie, and Tony Stea. Andrew Collie con- verted all the touchdowns. The junior football team beat Anderson with a score of 26-7. Mark Edwards scored two touchdowns, and Cam Baird passed for touchdowns to Pat McNamara and Joe Jor- dan.

Please help support otw school abuy the bar chndel they make great Christmas It t v� a cold and rainy day when two busloads of Pickering High School students again made the long Journey to the Strat- ford Festival to add some culture to their lives. This year they saw Taming of the Shrew. This is one of Shakespeare's more humorous comedies. It is a story about a man named Pertruchio, played by Len Cariou, who mar- ries a free spirited woman with a violent tamper narn- ed Kate, played by Sharry Flett. Pe t ruchio's only in- terest in this marriage is that he will receive a large dowry from Kate's father plus a vast sum of money from a group of men who wish to marry Kate's sista Bianca. They cannot court Bianca until Kate is mar- ried because Kate is the older daughter. Pertruchio takes on the task of taming Kate as one would a wild animal. Eventually, Kate becomes, to the amaze- ment of all, a loving and obedient wife. Though the play's values about male supremacy are out of date, most of the students found the play outrageously funny and very entertaining. Fitness: something that no one else can do for you.
