Among thele affected are: Liverpool Rd, around the entrance to Balsdon Park; Commerce St. surrounding Fren- chman Bay Ratepayers Park; Parts of Glendale Dr. around Glendale Park; two secias of Denmar Rd around Denmar Park; Sec- tions of Rosebank Rd leading to Rosebank Park. A few areas were withdrawn, as the by-law would have created ac- cessibility problems. Coun- cillor Cahill cited East Woodlands and persuaded Council that the road north of East Woodlands should be exempt, because of the distance from the ball dia- mond to the parking area off Highway 2. He felt that lugging equipment from that distance would be a bit difficult and unfair to ex- pect of "volunteer" coaches.

Coun- cillor Cabill put the former, before Councillor Stoner could speak to the latter and his motion went through on a 5-1 vote.

This in turn blocked a watercourse and now flooding in the future is feared upstream of the blockage. A meeting with town bylaw officer did not help, and so council enacted Bylaw 1492 that authorizes the works department to repair the drain and the expenses in- curred in doing so will be assessed to the property owner. Councillor Stoner has ask- ed staff to look into ways of controlling the number of repeat garage sales spring- ing up in Pickering.

Mery 1% ltmz opinion a page for expression for you and us Best Possible? The Ontario budget just released upon the taxpayers of the province was probably the easiest that Treasurer Frank Miller could come up with considering all of his problems. His biggest problem is, of course, to finance the disastrous purchase of Suncor shares, about $600 million and the equally unconservative purchase of a $10 million aircraft for the premier. Those two most unpopular items would have sent most treasurers into hiding, but add on the doctors' settlement and lessening taxes coming into the till because of the economy and it is a nightmare. We have surveyed every Progressive Conservative party member whom we have met in the past few weeks and have yet to come across one who agrees to the two ridiculous pur- chases by Premier William Davis. We refer, of course, to the oil company and the private jet. These moves must be the most unpopular for many long years, and we predict that they will surface to haunt the premier for many years to come. Getting back to the new taxes, it is always aggravating to notice that every government has some sort of windfall for "small business", but when you anal ze the details, the conditions are such that very few businesses could take ad- vantage of these better deals. We still prefer that we citizens pay our way and OHIP is one easy one in which to do this. However, government avoids making us pay the real price tag and uses other tax monies to keep the scheme going. And then there are those many employees in Ontario who have their companies pay- ing all or part of their OHIP. Effectively this transfers their payment to the price of products and services and we in- dependent payers end up paying again. We believe that governments should get down to more basic tax systems which do not need to be fiddled with every time an economy changes. Many good ideas were in evidence at the federal PC policy conference last weekend. Maybe the provincial Tories should have a look at these Weis for the future. Canada Has It ..Despite our God-given resources, talents and oppor- tunities• we are not as confident as we should be of our pro- spects. we are not achieving the results of which we are capable and we are not as happy as we should be, " said Roy A. Phillips. President of The Canadian Manufacturers' Association in concluding the Kawartha Lakes Business and Industry Trade Show in Peterborough. "Canada can be number one and we should be number one. We must capitalize on our strengths and compensate for our weaknesses." Just what are those strengths and weaknesses? The European 'Management Forum recently published a comprehensive report on industrial competitiveness in 21 industrial countries of the Western World. In judging per- formance they considered ten catagocies such as forward orientation, human resources, role of the state, market dynamics and socio-political stability and consensus. Overall, Canada ranks fifth behind Japan. Switzerland, the U.S. and West Germany. In all but three criteria - out- ward orientation, forward orientation and socio-political consensus and stability. Canada placed in the top half. -We need to pull up our socks in these three arty. "We" means business people, politicians, civil servants and union members right across the country. " Outward orientation, or our world trading capabilities had the lowest growth of all countries from 19761990, our managers appear reluctant to work abroad, our govern- ments are slow to respond to unfair trade practices of our competitors and union demands are now running almost double those in the U -S. Forward orientation or R&D can easily be encouraged, through effective and appropriate tax incentives given the eagerness of manufacturers to innovate. Socio-political strength is one area where business, government and labour must work together for the benefit of all and the restoration of a healthy economy. Employers must re -think their organizations and human relations, employees must become involved in discussing mutual con- cerns and governments must develop an understanding of the real issues affecting the industrial and economic perfor- mance of the country. "Canada can make real progress in industrial and economic performance if business, labour and government work together to improve our weaknesses. Canada can do it. but we have to try harder."

Canadians were told that turning the Post Office into a Crown Corporation would produce miracles.

In his Most pronouncernent, Parra says the union is seeking nine months of fully -paid maternity leave for both mea and women. Yes, that's a full nitre months for both sexes. Now most Canadians would consider such a proposal ridicu- lous. Yet Employment Minister Lloyd Axworthy is seriously considering the bid. Still, the posties won't get the nitre months maternity leave (just imagine having a bored father sitting around the house for that length of time). Nevertheless, the postal workers do have some real problems. Parrot contends, for example, that new postal workers aren't included on the official payroll for six months.

In 1981, 1,445 people died in highway -related accidents, compared with 1,424 in 1964 and 1,508 in 1980. Pedestrian fatalities declined 10.9 per cent. from 266 to 237 in 1981. And the number of injuries also dropped slightly to 100.321`'down one per cent from 1980. when 101,367 people were treated or hos- pitalized. "While I'm pleased to note these decreases:' continued Snow, "the statistics are still sobering. They represent a waste of human life which must be considered unaccept- able, especially in the case of motorcycle accident..' Last Year. 107 motorcycle drivers and passengers died in accidents, up from 99 in 19811 while 5.189 were injured as against 4.468 in 1980. `with the popularity and numbers of motorcvcles in- creasing every rear. I'm very concerned about this trend," said Snow. -My ministry has always recommended com- pletion of a recognized motor- cycle driver -training course able rates is not bright. There's little wonder. then, that Stork Courier System does a booming business delivering new Canadians. If they arrived for those purchasing these machines. And I'm still con- vinced such training can contribute greatly to motor- cycle safety. "Part of the blame for motorcycle accidents, however, must rest with drivers of other vehicles who too often aren't as alert to motorevelists as they should be. A motorcycle is much smaller than a car or truck and more difficult to see, so special care must be taken when sharing a road with one. "Thankfully. motor vehicle fatalities declined,'" said Snow, ..and preliminary figures for this year indicate it could be a promising trend.' Through 1981.657 drivers and 393 passengers died in accident. compared to 682 and 413. respectively, the previous year. That's a dre►p of almost 4.1 per cent. We are approaching the summer season, which is traditionally our worst when it comes to fatal motor vehicle accident:.- added Snow. "And it certainly doesn t have to be that way. With even drivers care and ro-operation. 1 know I could report a major decrease in accident+. not as an event worthy of special note. but as a common occurrence, every month of even year." by mail. Parrot would un- doubtedly be seeking 10 months maternity leave, for both men and women. CFO Frew Senn Speaking To You Stat Fennel M.P. Ontario Riding The last few days in the House of Commaons have seen a hectic and emotional emergency debate over the death of the Alsands mega -energy project. Until last February Alsands was consortium of eight com- panies which was going to produce synthetic oil from the Alberta tar sands. It then, suddenly, became a crippled giant when five of the eight pulled out because of political and economic uncertainties. The only companies who could afford to bold on were the multinationals Shell and Gulf and the government's Petro - Canada. And now Alsands is just a memory. Even the big guys had to give up. My ply forced an emergency debate on the issue because Alsands represented Canada at its best. It was a huge project tackling a huge task. $13.5 billion alone would have been spent directly. More than 6,000 con- struction jobs would have been created where none were before. The multiplier effect on the Ontario economy would have been tremendous. Cautious economic estimates projected two jobs created indirectly for every one in Alberta. Our truck and machine producing industries would have receiv- ed a much needed boost. Ontario's steel production facilities - presently operating at 50% capacity - would have been working overtime. From the very beginning the project was bold and -risky. Sophisticated technology was required. Turning tar sands into crude oil - and doing so at a realistic price - would have given Canada unprecedented engineering status. The scope, the skill, the innovation and the technology demand- ed by Alsands could all have become symbolic for what Canada can accomplish when it chooses to use its potential. Alsands is one of several mega -energy projects which have been cancelled or postponed. Of the 16 major projects on the boards three years ago, i l are now tottering towards the grave or are dead and buried. The government's Na- tional Energy Program and accompanying economic recovery plans are now in tatters. Our goal of energy self- sufficiency (Alsands would have produced 140,000 barrels of crude a day) must again be delayed. The tragedy is that Alsands was inches away from being activated two years ago. Chalk up another "victory" for Marc Lalonde and his NEP. at Wed. May 19, 1962 THE NEWSIPOST Pays 3 Developers Express Anger At Scarborough Fees System by Gay Abbate Developers are angry at having to pay permit fees at the time they submit foundation drawings and apply for a building permit. They want a pay as you build system. The borough charges a fee of $8 per $1,000 of develop- ment. With multi-million dollar projects, a developer has to pay huge sums of money 4 to 6 months before he actually starts construc- tion. This means he has to bor- row money before he needs it. While he's paying the in- terest on it, the borough is colllectiW interest on it. Representatives from the Urban Development In- stitute asked the Scar- borough Building, Fire and Legislation Committee last week to change its system of collecting the permit fee.

Both Mathews and developer Joe Lebovic stated that they have foun- dation drawings ready to submit but are holding back because they don't want to pay the money up front. Controller Brian Harrison argued that the borough has to put money up front when it provides such ser- vices as sewers. Scarborough receives about $500,000 a year in in- terest on money paid in permit fees. Harrison is concerned about the loss of this revenue and how it'll affect taxes. "We're looking at a tough budget in 1963" Harrison told the Committee adding that "if we raise taxes too high, people will move out of Scarborough." Joe Lebovic accused Har- rison of being "short- sighted" when Harrison commented that Scar- borough might have to raise its permit fee. "Your attitude forces develop- ment out of Scarborough" Lebovic told Harrison. Alderman Florence CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING 24,000 BTUs rll— Iwdlrww c,.w.«. CO. rhw me- 2 TONS seat An"T Is il.

McCLEARY Chairman VETERINARIANS ANIMAL SPAY—NEUTER INNOCULATION CENTRE 4252 Lawrence Ave. East :East Of .Monnlnpalde Ave.) WEST HILL ONT. 282.9675 r" Just Around The Corner by Barbara Madren The gentle but determined efforts of a nun to prove the innocence of an artist who has been found guilty of murdering her brother were well enough perform- ed by the Stage Door Theatre to keep me from leaving the oh -so -hard seats of the auditorium of David and Mary Thomson Collegiate. The Play, "High Ground" takes its title from the fact that the nunnery in which all the action takes place provides the high ground as a haven for those who live nearby and have become the victims of a supposedly violent storm and flood. I say "supposedly" because while thunder sound effects persisted throughout, they were rather mild and did not seem to convey a storm of the ferocity the dialogue gave us to believe was tak- ing place - The play, written by Charlotte Hastings, left me with more unanswered THE BIBLE HAS THE ANSWER GOD'S ANSWER FOR A TAPED BIBLE MESSAGE PHONE 499-1124 MATTRESS PROBLEMS • RETURNED LIKE NEW • EXPERTLY REPAIRED MEDIUM FIRM OR EXTRA FIRM 2 -DAY SERVICE ONTARIO BEDDING COMPANY 278-2680 REGALITE ALUMINUM CO. • Thermal windows • Doors • Patio doors • Awnings • Eavestrough • Siding • Replacement insulated windows • 241-7853 lin Town? You'll find a friend where you see this sign. For more information call 364-9010 mysteries than the author would wish, I imagine. While not a Roman Catholic, I do understand to some degree the zeal a nun would show in trying to pro- ve someone's innocence - even more so when that person has been wrongly convicted. However, the playwright did not show me why this particular nun was so sure that this par- ticular "murderess" was not quilty. Perhaps I was adjusting to the hardness of the seat and missed the point - but I think not. The fact that many people wished the brother dead added a great deal to the mystery and the truly guil- ty party was a surprise to me and I hope it was to the rest of the audience as well. The nun, being a nursing sister was able to deduce certain important items of evidence that had eluded the judge and jury and, one imagines, some amount of investigation. That, too, somewhat boggles the mind as usually we feel that not to be the case with the British system. Alas . . There were some other gaps in character delinea- tion that again were the fault of the playwright and certainly not of the ex- cellent cast that tried to fill those gaps. Let's look, first of all, at some of the smaller but not unimportant roles .. Chris MacKellar in the role of the scrubbing woman, looked and sounded quite authen- tic. She was, in fact, the on- ly one who produced an authentic sounding English accent! The rest of the cast were very Canadian. Two nurses, as portrayed by Lynne Stoneham and Kerry Ascott, were able Lo show two quite different personalities that could be expected to be found in a convent hospital - one just a bit too strict and stuffy, the other a bit of a non- conformist but willing to change. Both were bright spots. The Mother Superior was played by Josephine Moore and seemed a role that was needed only to provide more nuns to the story. Her contribution to the story served only to reprimand our true heroine for getting so involved. The apparent murderess is accompanied to the con- vent by a police escort - one male, one female. The male, played for us by Dave Battams, somehow didn't look to me like a policeman though I must say I cannot explain my reasoning. Perhaps had he been the short, tweed - jacketed type I've become accustomed to seeing in British movies, I might not have been so offended when he so casually lit up a pipe in what was the nurs- ing sister's 'office'. He did well with what the play of- fered him. The most thankless role has to have been the one of Miss Pierce. Judy Yaksich who performed this was well made up and costum- ed to give the impression of the stern, unbending, humourless police woman and she certainly never cracked from that pose. Again our author didn't bother to give her much to say but her presence was certainly felt. Joe Carmichael portrayed Dr. Jeffreys who seems to be about the convent a lot, but then there was the flood crisis. Just in case the reader wishes to sometime see this play, I won't give away any more plot other than to say the doctor is later to become an impor- tant factor so his relatively few appearances earlier in the drama add to the sur- prise later. Joe was quite up to the demands made on him later in the play though the earlier appearances were a bit shaky. There were a couple of titters nearby about the kind of doctor's bag he was given to carry. A very nice touch and quite subtly underplayed was Sister Josephine. Maureen MacKellar played this beautifully. Ob- viously this role was one of the author's favourites as she got so marry pleasant and sometimes Munourous lines to deliver. That role would have seemed to me to be ideal for a Mother Superior, but then it wasn't my play! The "murderess" - Sarat Carn, was played by Elaine MacKellar ( one begins to think that this group should be named the MacKellar Players - what a talented family!) Again I think the author has not done full justice to this character. We are given to understand that she is so dangerous as to require a 2 -person police escort even in the washroom and yet there are whole passages in which she simply is stan- ding by idly, it would seem. Now I do not mean that she should be ranting and rav- ing. or, as she occasionally has to, showing constant flares of temper, but there is an uneveness in the character that would, I think, make it hard for anyone to portray superbly. The fact that Elaine does it well is to her credit and not the author's. (I'm beginning to be afraid of ever meeting Charlotte! ). And then there's Willy Pentridge. Here is a character in all senses of the word that was superbly performed by John Snow. Will plays the part of a han- dyman, thought by some to be too dangerous to be allowed the freedom of the convent but others felt him to be harmless if handled right. John gives this character just the right degree of 'slowness'. while intimating that just under the surface could be a bod- ing point reached too easi- ly. His performance was a standout along with that of Linda Cahill as Sister Mary. I cannot today as I write this, recall that she was offstage more than just brief seconds. With no consideration at all for the quality of performance, I greatly admire someone who can memorize that quantity of dialogue. In Linda's case, though, there was much more than just memorization. All the positives that I have always thought a good nun should possess came through in Linda's perfor- mance. She showed us a character who was kind, gentle, compassionate while at the same time strong, persuasive and stubbornly persistent. Wow! What a role and what a challenge to play. We'll undoubtedly see more in Linda's scrapbook of characters and hopefully, the rest of the group too. Peter Moore who directed this play must be con- gratulated on bringing forth such performances. Pacing, stage placement, all the directorial bits flow- ed so smoothly as not to be noticeable as directional bits - and that's good, I think! Just one final note to this group. This is my first theatre experience in Scar- borough. I found it most disappointing that only about fifty people were in the audience on the Satur- day night I attended. Some local publicity might help but also how about looking into a smaller, more in- timate theatre or other room that could lend itself to your performances and be easier to fill. 'There is heartbreakinglysomething cold about seeing a group acting their collective hearts out in a cavernous auditorium ( with such hard seats!). A note too to Scarborough residents .. you dm't know what you're missing when you paw up theatre perfor- mances such as this. Here was an eveairhg of exciting theatre performed as it were, right in your own backyard . and where were you., Sitting in front of the television? Downtown paying exhorbi- tant rates for something Perhaps not nearly as satis- fying? Let's support our theatre groups as they so richly deserve. Let's not have Scarborough be a cultural wasteland populated by folks who think they must go elsewhere to be enter- tained I'm on my soapbox to state that groups such as Stage Door Theatre should be turning people away at the door because all the tickets have been sold.

Pogo 6 THE NEWSIPOST Wed. May 19, 1962 Bill Watt's World ON YOUR TOES: La Sylphide is the first of the great romantic ballets and the National Ballet of Canada serves it well. On our recent visit to The O'Keefe, Nadia Potts danc- ed the lead role. Although la sylphide is an ethereal creature she is not without an almost impish sense of humour and this is well presented by the enchan- ting Miss Potts. Her smile is one of drollery as well as enchantment. Indeed, such is the enchantment of her smile that one is in danger almost of overlooking her fine attitude and superb work en pointe. The role of James is danc- ed by Raymond Smith with vigouir and elan. En L'air au revers he is thrilling and partnering either Miss Potts or Linda Maybarduk as Effie he displays all the strength and steadiness that one could wish. Mention should also be made of David Gornik, Patricia Oney, Jacques Gorrisen and William Stour. Mr. Gorik danced the role of Gum with the stolid air of the peasant but the grace of one truly in love. Patricia Oney as Nancy, Effie's friend has a gamin charm about her that makes one wish to see her in larger roles. Jacques Gorrumm as Madge the witch is truly chilling and we suggest that the laughter of a few yahoos in the audience was more that of nervous fear than hilari- ty. William Stolar in his brief solo displayed all the explosive power of a Kevin Pugh and well deserved his special bow. Maestro Crum conducted and tuned the Scandina- vian coolness of the Loven- skjold score into fiery Ionic emotion. One suggests though that the fire comes from Mr. Crum's own or- chestration and additional music. La Sylphide is always a delight and a fine perfor- mance such as witnessed by us serves only to in- crease its popularity. The second wort of the evening was the one act ballet Washington Square.

CALL 461.7474 You'll Have Fun and a Whole Lot More places to go The principal role, that of Catherine, was danced by first soloist Cynthia Lucas. If this young lady never danced another step, she would still be assured of success as an actress. More than any other dancer we have seen in the role she appealed to the emotions as she transfer- red from shy and plain spinster to a woman pas- sionately in love to an em- bittered recluse. Yet her superb acting takes not a whit away from her danc- ing. Partnered with Tomas Schramek as her lover or Hazaros Surrneyan as her father she is as light as thistledown but as sure as the stitches on her em- broidery. Mr. Schramek continues to impress with his workmanlike skill and we were quite taken with Mr. Surmeyan as Doctor Sloper. Hither to now we had always seen the role danced by Charles Kirby and damme if we now know which interpretation we prefer. And, we must also men- tion the score by Michael Baker whom we had the pleasure of meeting in the President's Lounge bet- ween acts. One had always liked it but now one is prepared to admit a deep and abiding affection for it. What a delight to announce that it has now been record- ed by the London Sym- phony Orchestra under the direction of George Crum and featuring the solo piano of Gary Arbour. Friends, we have to admit that we were a bit lazy in reviewing these two works and it will be noticed that we have been quite light in assessment of the more technical aspects of the two works. Well, the fact is we were enjoying them both so much that it simply seem.- ed eemed a shame to dilute our en- joyment by the taking of our usual voluminous notes. This review is from memory and we make so bold as to suggest that that's one of the highest compliments we can pay. Tomorrow night we'll be reviewing Romeo and Juliet. One supposes it'll be difficult to make notes through our tears. And, You really think this job is easy IN THE CLUBS: We were making our usual notes while taking in the first show of Jack Jones at the Imperial Room and it's a good thing too. When we went to review them we were surprised to discover that we had forgotten most of what he sang and needed the notes to jog our memory. That confirms what we thought at the time . . he was merely winging his performance. Now, one supposes that it must be a bit repetitious for a young man to sing vir- tually the same songs night after night but even so, he could, it seems to us, put just a tad more into them. Yes, we know that a con- sumate artist can make real effort appear as nothing and maybe that's the case with Mr. Jones but we really don't think so. Let's be kind and suggest he had an off night. Let's be even kinder and say that if you like Jack Jones you'll enjoy him at the Imperial Room and you'll hear all of the songs that have made him so deservedly popular. Let's also hope that he wears a proper tux and not that ridiculous white tennis outfit. Hell, even Pat Boone didn't dress like that when he appeared at the Im- perial Room. A class gentleman like Jack Jones should remember that the I.R. is a class room. There aren't too many left and we treat them with the respect they deserve. SUMMER FUN: That was quite a luncheon held last week in the John Molson Room high atop the Molton Brewery to announce a ma- jor change in this year's CHIN-MOLSON Interna- tional Picnic. This year, we're changing to Ex! The picnic is moving from the Toronto Islands to the CNE grounds and Nathan Phillips Square - We'll be giving you more details in the weeks to come but here's a preview of some of the fun events scheduled. A Limbo com- petition is to be presented and there will be no profes- sional competitors. All par- ticipants will come from the general public at the picnic so everyone stands a good chance of winning. Wonder if good friends Russ and Wendy Wilton will enter. There'll also be denxmstrations of Kick - Boxing and Karate. The latter will be by the Samaurai Karate Club of Toronto. Dare one say you'll really get a kick out Of it? And, the entertainment planned for the Forum at Ontario Place is tremen- dous. There isn't space to list all the entertainers and you'll be seeing the adver- tisements for them in any case but we can't resist sneaking in a few just to whet the appetite. From Wednesday June 16th through to the following Saturday you'll be able to see and bear the Spitfire Band, Martin Mull, Stephane Grapelli and Tory Bennett! On July 2nd from 5 p.m. to 9 it's Doc Severinsen, Buddy Rich and Oscar Peterson. The next day, it's Ornette Col- eman, Sonny Rollins and Cleo Laine. On Saturday, July 31st Neil Sedaka ap- pears and he's followed the next day by Lou Rawls. Summer fun indeed! BILLY D. KIDD'S NOTEBOOK: From now until May 29th, the East In- dia Trading Campany in the Sheraton Centre is presenting Manila Jet and the Redwoods Dinner Theatre continues with What A Way To Go starring Paul Brown. Some will remember a group called the Jive Bombers that used to play many years ago at the old Brown Derby. Well, now comes a group called Sbox Johnson and the Jive Bombers appearing till Saturday at Ye Olde Brunswick House. Don't know anything about them but with a name like that they have to be checked out. Tina Turner opens next Monday at the Imperial Room and the same even- ing sees Harry Belafonte making a return ap- pearance at The O'Keefe. We recommend T.O.s at 99 Yorkville for good food and entertainment. It's a pleasant place that has a summery ambiance not- withstanding its steakhouse tiffany effect. Make of that what you will. If Grass can wax poetic, so 05 Tina Turner stars in the Imperial Room, Mon. May 24 through Sat. June 5. can we. And . . at least we're grammatical, most of the time anyway. FAST EXIT: In Oklahoma. it's against the law to get a fish drunk. One presumes though that it's alright to drink like a fish. Conversion Not So Simple by Gay Abbale Conversion of furnaces from oil to gas may not be as simple as most people think and it certainly creates problems for Colin Jemison, Scarborough's Pollution Controller. The problem lies with the removal of the oil tads:. Since neither the oil comm - party nor the ger+ compnny will haul away the tank, homeowners have to find someone to do it - Unfortunately, the talcs are rarely empty and therein lies the cause of Jemison's headaches. Homeowners hire what Jemison calls "mickey mouse companies" to remove the tank but it's rarely done without spilling the left -over al. According to Jemison, the number of oil spills is on the increase. Last week, for instance, he was called to clean up a mess in the Lawrence i Birchmount The people removing the tank spilled over 20 gallons of oil into the catcbbasirs. Because of the chance of rain, Jernison had to tush to pump the oil from the catchbasin before rain car- ried the oil into the sewers and creeks. The borough sends the clean-up bill to the in- surance company of whoever is removing the oil tank. Jemison has also seen oil spilled in basements, driveways, and roadways. '(bating aroundri- up their mess doesn't serve our energy one iota,,. Jemison stated. Jemison's advice to those contemplating conversion is to hire a reputable firm who knows how to remove an oil tank without spilling the contents all over your house or borough property. ,�I I1 _ _ _I_ - 3T.-.�30-�, The Ontario Weed Control Act as it applies to persons In possession of land within the Borough of Scarborough.

May 19, 1982 Freedom Of Information Policy To Be Decided By Committee by Gay Abbate Community associations in Scarborough won a "significant victory" ac- cording to community ac- tivist, Susan Hunt, when Scarborough Board of Con- trol last week instructed the Building, Fire and BAYVIEW GLEN Day Camp Don Mills AGES 2.12 Limited spaces available in our July and August mor- ning program for children ages 2-5 112. Other spaces also available for all ages In August. Half day and full day programs. Lunch and transportation included. For further information please call: 449.7740 Legislation Committee to formulate a freedom of in- formation policy. Hunt appeared before a policy meeting of Board of Control to talk about some of the problems she's had in acquiring what she con- sidered public information. She said that she tried un- successfully for over a year to obtain a copy of the 1968 Barton-Aschman report, a study done for Trizec, the developer of the Town Cen- tre Mall.

But Mrs. Hunt stated that the report should be public because it was used by the politicians as the basis for amending Scarborough's Official Plan to include the Brimley Rd.; 401 Inter- change. The other incident Hunt described involved a private letter written by Development Commis- sioner, Cliff Tripp. Part of the letter was read aloud at a public council meeting. Because it was read aloud and because it played an important role in swaying council's decision, Hunt argued that the letter should be made public. The present policy regar- ding public access to infor- mation is that any material filed with the clerk's department is available to the public. According to Controller Joyce Trimmer, Scar- borough is exceedingly open with its information. Trimmer stated that if a freedom of information policy is badly needed anywhere it's at Metro. Mayor Harris doesn't think it's possible to have a freedom on information act which is 100, perfect. Alderman Frank Faubert wants council to define what can and cannot be made public. Board of Control also ask- ed the Building.

Pickering Energy Information Centre, German Food Makes a Visit Worthwhile Sausages, dumplings, pork and sauerkraut. These dishes, for most peo- ple, sum up the extent of Germany's cooking reper- toire - zestful and hearty but few surprises for the palate. But anyone who travels through Germany soon learns that local cuisines are as delightfully varied as the country's magnifi- cent landscapes, dialects, customs, climate, architec- ture and industry. Visitors also will discover that the lighter fare, nouvelle cuisine, has made its presence felt in Germany, where the so- called heavy dishes reign- ed supreme for centuries. Although many dishes are typical of Germany, even these national favorites are prepared with their own special imprint, from province to province. For example, one of the most renowned specialties, sauerbraten, begins with a basic recipe of meat, usual- ly beef, but perhaps, pork4 iamb or mutton, which is marinated and cooked in vinegar or red wine, with a bouquet of such spices as peppercorns, bay leaves and cloves. But a Rhinelander may distinguish his sauerbraten with seedless white raisins in a sweet-and-sour sauce, while a Bavarian chef will create his regional favorite with a few dollops of sour cream or tomato puree. Indeed, Germany is a composite of "culinary region?. A good many speciahtes reflect the in- fluence of such bordering countries and areas as Scandinavia, Poland, Russia, Czechoslovakia, Austria and France. Northern German cuisine is characteristical- ly sweet and sour; elsewhere, eastern Euro- pean flavors dominate with liberal lacings of sour cream, paprika and caraway. The dishes and their preparations are as varied MIND 1 "INCREASE 1 1 YOUR INCOME" 1 1 Learn To Drive , 1 Tnacler Trailir TTnK I.�pgTIC/Oi7TAtallr vv Training Ce" r t ; as the provinces and as en- ticing as the whole ex- perience of traveling through Germany, as the following review of several major classifications will show: Pork is a perennial favorite on German mends, but it appears under numerous guises. Fresh pork and smoked or cured ham (has anyone not heard of Westphalian ham?) are essential to the German diet. But the choices are myriad. Order roast pork, flavored with salt, pepper and caraway; smoked pork chops, or pig's knuckles. The latter, grilled to a fine crispness all over Ger- many, are more pleasing to a Berliner when boiled and served with boiled potatoes and mashed peas. Fish and seafood are featured around the calen- dar. The bountiful northern coastline has given up a wealth of delightful crea- tions. Herring can be serv- ed fresh ('.green"), pickl- ed, fried, in a rich sour - cream sauce, and in countless salads with such ingredients as diced apples and red beets. Smoked eel is a northern German favorite, too, taken with a rich, dark bread. And the lake regions of southern Germany have spawned a rainbow of fresh -water selections. Especially prized are trout (smoked. fried, grilled or baked), and pike (try• it baked in cream sauce or shaped into delicate queneiles - Baden-Baden style - or prepared as an elegant pate with apples cooked in white wine in the Rhineland) . Ducklings and chicken are popular, too, as is wild game. Venison, hare, wild boar and pheasant are relished with gusto, even more so during the fall and in Bavaria and the southern provinces, where such fare is indigencim. Game is available throughout the year in most restaurants across the country. It is generally marinated in wine and vinegar with such aromatic vegetables as carrots, onions and garlic. A few more variations on the theme, and one can savor a delectable venison with spaetzle (home-made noodles), mushrooms and currant berries, or hare stewed (ask for hasenpfef- fer) or roasted and popular all over the country. Germans also have ex- celled in creating im- aginative dishes based on innards and variety meats - braised or breaded beef tongue, sweetbreads in caper sauce, and stuffed calf's heart are just a few of the choices. Vegetables? Germany serves up an astonishing array of them. Vegetables can be steamed, simmered. and marinated, presented as side dishes or as separate courses, cooked or used raw in colorful and irresistable salads_ Cabbage, everybody's favorite vegetable in Ger- many, is a traditional ac- companiment at meals - red and white cabbage, sweet and sour cabbage, sauerkraut prepared in hundreds of ways, and stuf- fed cabbage rolls. Its use is a tribute to the imagination of German k;t- chens the coun- trytry. Next to the Centennial Rouge United by MUNe Huu A Man of Adventure' was the sermon topic gives by Rev.

Potatoes come deep-fried, mashed, patted into crisp pancakes, shred- ded and sliced and used in countless kinds of salads, hot or chilled. Potatoes even feature in the formation of tennis - ball -sized dumplings in southern Germany, perhaps the only region that prefers noodles such as spaetzle rather than potatoes as an accompani- ment. Few other countries can boast of as much culinary variety as Germany, where hundreds of specialties and dishes carry the names of cities and districts which inspired the creations.

Sausages can be boiled, scalded, dry or smoked, and wonderful in thin or thick slices, or as creamy spreads. Germans enjoy their main meal at midday, and supper tends to be a cold buffet. Supper tables in German homes are set with no less than four sausages (local or other regional kinds), ham, pickled or smoked fish, delicious breads (there are more than 300 varieties) and cheese (German cheeses such as Tilsiter or Muensterkaese, as well as imported selections). 292-8947 22W YIDIAND AVE, UNIT 1511 =CARIOROUCN, ONTARIO YIP 411111 BIRKDALE TRAVEL A COMPLETE TRAVEL SERV ICE 1 Would you like to be 1 Miss Cliffside '82? �°,0 -so. .11�°rJ`� 1 1 A candidate for the 1982 title must be at least 18 years of age. 1 1 Fill in the entry form today!

June 7 has been set as the date for the Building, Fire and Legislation Committee to hear from the public on Scarborough's liquor licence application policy. While Board of Control had voted to rescind Scar- borough's policy of generally not supporting the granting of a liquor licence to a restaurant in a residential area if adjacent residents objected, Scar- borough Council decided to refer the entire matter to the Committee. After hearing from the public, the Committee will recommend whether the Policy should remain, be changed or abolished.

June 7 has been set as the date for the Building, Fire and Legislation Committee to hear from the public on Scarborough's liquor licence application policy. While Board of Control had voted to rescind Scar- borough's policy of generally not supporting the granting of a liquor licence to a restaurant in a residential area if adjacent residents objected, Scar- borough Council decided to refer the entire matter to the Committee. After hearing from the public, the Committee will recommend whether the Policy should remain, be changed or abolished.

A look at the history of track and field in the games bears this out. In 1973 the first year of the games, Indianapolis won only after they won the track and field on the last race. The Scarborough con - The Buccaneers of the Scarborough Boys Football League. have decided that the formula for success during regular season play is hard work in pre -season training. With this in mind they have been practicing for the past three Wednesday evenings in the gymnasium at R. H. King Secondary School. Last week 75 young hopefuls attended this ex- ercise session conducted by peewee coach Clark who put the boys through their routines. It looks like this year Bucanneers mean business. Chief Coach George Brennan says he still needs more players for all three divisions.

Council Report from Nora Stoner, Countdlor Ward 3 It has been many weeks since I first wrote in this column about the proposal from Metropolitan Toronto to place the radioactive soil from McClure Crescent in the Beare Road Landfill Site so I'd like to bring you up to date on the most recent happenings. We owe a loud "THANK YOU" to George Ashe, our local MPP who has been working with the Provincial Minister of the Environment and other provincial officials to help us solve this problem. George has stated publicly strong op- position to the proposal. Durham Region, Uxbridge Ajax and a number of other municipalities have endorsed the resolution of the Town of Pickering opposing the dumping. The Metro Works Committee resolution, as you recall, ap- proved the dumping but it had two riders attached. The first amendment called for the Province to define "temporary" ( because the soil would supposedly only be in the site "tem- porarily"). The Minister of the Environment has responded stating that "temporary" means until a permanent site is found. The Federal government has said it hopes to have a permanent site for radioactive waste in about rive years time. Since they haven't even decided on the criteria for such a site, I would suggest that you don't hold your breath. The second amendment called for the Province to indem- nify Metro against all legal costs. This seems to be a stumbling block; Metro's lawyers and the people from the Provincial Solicitor -General's office have not yet evolved a method to deal with this. Frank Horrigan, the Commis- sioner of Metro Works tells me they need legislation in order to be able to deal with nuclear material. Mr. Horigan tells me that the next scheduled Metro Works Committee meeting is May 25th, and Executive Committee an June 15th, so the earliest Metro Council meeting this item could be on is Tuesday, June 22. This is just prior to the Council summer recess. Back in Pickering, the East Rouge Residents Association who are so valiantly fighting the dumping. the battle goes on; the residents fear a serious precedent will be set. They have received the support of many of the Town's ratepayer organizations, the Pickering Naturlaists, the Save the Rouge Valley Organization, the Pickering Ajax Board of Trade and the Scarborough Ratepayers Coalition. On Thurs. May 13th, the ERRA executive are meeting with Norman Gardiner, the Chairman of the Metro Works Com- mittee. On Friday, May 14th, they are touring the Beare Landfill Site with Dr. Edward Farkas from the University of Waterloo. Dr. Farkas is a noted expert on the environmental affects of landrrlling. The ERRA is now legally incorporated and they are preparing for the fust legal battle. They are drafting their latest newsletter, scheduling their general meeting ten- tatively for June 1st. More signs are being made. buttons, T-shirts and bumper stickers will be printed soon. The fund raising projects continue. A giant garage sale will be held and a barbecue. Keep an eye on the local papers for the dates and places of these events. The people of Pickering have shown their support of the ERR Association and I know they will continue to help keep Pickering a great place to live. Marijuana A Health Hazard How dangerous is mari- juana? The question has been holly debated by the public - and some scien- tists - ever since the counter -culture of the 1960's made pot the nation's most widely used illicit drug. Earlier this year a blue- ribbon panel of the Na- tional Academy of Science's Institute of Medicine issued the most comprehensive and dispas- sionate report to date on the health effects of mari- juana. The committee con- cluded that the drug is far from innocuous and its use "justifies serious national concern". However, said the panel, much more research will have to be done to prove the dire warnings of pot's most vociferous critics. Dr. Ar- nold S. Relman, editor of the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine headed the com- mittee. The committee reported that marijuana resembles tobacco smoke in its action on the respiratory tract. Heavy use can produce chronic bronchitis and even precancerous changes in the lining of the bronchial tubes. Although long-term studies have yet to be done, the committee warned that pot smoking could cause lung cancer. Smoking marijuana also results in stresslike effects on the cir- culatory system, increas- ing the heart rate and blood pressure. The York -Toronto Lung Association believes that smoking marijuana is harmful to the lungs - cer- tainly at least as harmful as tobacco smoking. And so they urge everyone to pro- tect their lungs against damaging smoke - both marijuana and tobacco. Report from : • ifs Queen's Parky,y k By George Ashe, MPP Durham West On Thursday, May 13th, 1982, Ontario Treasurer Frank Miller brought down the Provincial budget. I believe this document provides a responsible and yet compassionate response to the economic realities we face as a Province today. An important priority is job creation, and this budget will create about 31,000 new lobs. A total of $171 million has been allocated to job>cmdon programs, including capital fun- ding for approximately 14,500 jobs in road wort and water and sewage projects. Forest, fisheries and land manage- ment projects will create an additional 6,000 jobs. One of the capital projects accelerated under this program is the long-awaited construction of the White's Road inter- change in Pickering. I am pleased to announce that tenders for this construction project will be called on May 26th and will close on June 23rd, 1982. Construction is expected to commence on the White's Road interchange shortly thereafter. Another accelerated project is the improvement of the Thickson Road interchange with tenders being called on Ju- ly 14th, 1982 ( eight months earlier than originally an- ticipated), closing in August and construction commencing in the late summer of 1982. Mother consideration in the preparation of this budget was the small business community. In recent years, small businesses have accounted for approximately fifty percent of all the new jobs created in this Province. To renew the confidence and vigour of the small business community, the Provincial corporate income tax on small businesses will be eliminated for a two-year perod. Qualified companies which have already paid tax this business year will have their money refunded, with more than t25o million going to apprnes mmately 60,000 small businessthis fiscal year aallone. The Treasurer also unveiled a V5 mullion Ontario Rent - Buy Program to assist fust -time homeowners with the pur- chase of a new home. This program will stimulate the con- struction industry and ease pressure on the rental accom- modation market across Ontario. The impact of inflation and federal cuthacks of ahnost s30o million this year to our Province was also addressed in the Provincial budget. The Treasurer decided to increase revenues rather than cut back important programs, such as health or education. Among the budget's money-ra " provisions are: in- creased taxes on cigarettes, cuts tobacco, beer, and im- ported and domestic spirits. OHIP premiums will increase medtrately, and the retail sales tax base has been broaden- ed to include such items as restaurant meals under $6. household cleaning products, and plants. Exemptions on food, children's clothing, fuel for heating and lightm& and prescription drugs will still apply. To provide effective leadership in the area of Government restraint, the budget includes a measure to limit 19@2 salary incrases for senior civil servants to 6 percent. In addition, the Treasurer has urged MPP's to accept salary increases of 6 percent instead of the 9 percent recommended by the Legislature's Election Expenses Commission. Overall. then, without raising personal income tax levels or increasing the retail sales tax, the Treasurer presented a budget which will create jobs assist homeowners, en- courage mall business and farming communities, and pro- vide the kind of economic leadership that is so badly needed today.

Forest, fisheries and land manage- ment projects will create an additional 6,000 jobs. One of the capital projects accelerated under this program is the long-awaited construction of the White's Road inter- change in Pickering. I am pleased to announce that tenders for this construction project will be called on May 26th and will close on June 23rd, 1982. Construction is expected to commence on the White's Road interchange shortly thereafter. Another accelerated project is the improvement of the Thickson Road interchange with tenders being called on Ju- ly 14th, 1982 ( eight months earlier than originally an- ticipated), closing in August and construction commencing in the late summer of 1982. Mother consideration in the preparation of this budget was the small business community. In recent years, small businesses have accounted for approximately fifty percent of all the new jobs created in this Province. To renew the confidence and vigour of the small business community, the Provincial corporate income tax on small businesses will be eliminated for a two-year perod. Qualified companies which have already paid tax this business year will have their money refunded, with more than t25o million going to apprnes mmately 60,000 small businessthis fiscal year aallone. The Treasurer also unveiled a V5 mullion Ontario Rent - Buy Program to assist fust -time homeowners with the pur- chase of a new home. This program will stimulate the con- struction industry and ease pressure on the rental accom- modation market across Ontario. The impact of inflation and federal cuthacks of ahnost s30o million this year to our Province was also addressed in the Provincial budget. The Treasurer decided to increase revenues rather than cut back important programs, such as health or education. Among the budget's money-ra " provisions are: in- creased taxes on cigarettes, cuts tobacco, beer, and im- ported and domestic spirits. OHIP premiums will increase medtrately, and the retail sales tax base has been broaden- ed to include such items as restaurant meals under $6. household cleaning products, and plants. Exemptions on food, children's clothing, fuel for heating and lightm& and prescription drugs will still apply. To provide effective leadership in the area of Government restraint, the budget includes a measure to limit 19@2 salary incrases for senior civil servants to 6 percent. In addition, the Treasurer has urged MPP's to accept salary increases of 6 percent instead of the 9 percent recommended by the Legislature's Election Expenses Commission. Overall. then, without raising personal income tax levels or increasing the retail sales tax, the Treasurer presented a budget which will create jobs assist homeowners, en- courage mall business and farming communities, and pro- vide the kind of economic leadership that is so badly needed today.
