I& , Shift To Single Detached A review of the housing .activity during the last four years by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation allows some interesting observations on the produc- tion of singles and semis for the regional municipali- ty of Durham. Despite the record high quarterly absorption of these house types (523 singles and 144 semis being the highest quarterly totals since at least 1978). evidence suggests that pro- duction during the near future is shifting almost ex- clusively to single - detached homes in the region. As of March 31, 1983 just 76 semi-detached homes were under constnution, the lowest quarterly vaiune in the last four years. At the same time, singledetsched production stood at =homes under- way plus 24 pend>nt`- Looked at another way, one year ago the total supp- ly of singles in the region totalled 796 units; today the supply is 974.

Pitch -in Campaign Rolling Hundreds of thousands of Ontario residents, both young and old, have responded to the 1983 Pitch - In Campaign set for May 9 to 15. More than 1,800 organizations will par- ticipate in 1983. "We are extremely pleased with the tremen- dous increase in participa- tion," said Rick Morgan, Executive Vice -President of the Ontario Federation of Anglers do Hunters, spon- sors of the yearly cam- paign. "It indicates to us that Pitch -In is a needed program which has cap- tured the enthusiasm of on- tarians.'. Pitch -In projects planned range from community and school -yard clean-ups by kindergarten students to clean-ups of wilderness areas by conservation clubs. Participants in the 1982 Campaign, which is en- dorsed and supported by the Ontario Ministry of En- vironment, will be armed with more than 100,000 urge garbage bags donated, primarily, by Shell Canada Limited. Pitch -In is a national pro- gram which originated in British Columbia in 1969 and which spread to On- tario, with the sponsorship of the Ontario Federation of Anglers & Hunters, in 1980. Other provinces which have participated in the program include Alber- ta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Pickering groups par- ticipating in the program include Holy Redeemer School; Rosebank Road P.S. and the 4th Bay Ridges Guide Company. OWASCO Scouts Go Out To Plant Trees On Sat. May 7. hundreds of Scouts will descend upon Lynde Shores Conservation Area to punt trees. Between 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., eleven busloads of Beavers, Cubs and Scouts will visit the planntinng site. Appr=d—tdy 500 boys, age 6 to 12 years, will par- ticipate in the project and will plant about 10,000 trees. Staff of the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority will be on band to discuss planting techniques and caoservatim with the boys. This project is being undertaken by the Owasco District Scouts as a part of the Trees For Canada Pro- gram. In the eight years since the inception of the program, 18 million acres of Canadian wasteland have been reforested by 500,000 Scouts. The success rate for these seedlings has been excep- tionally xcgationally good, with 70% of the trees taking root. When this is compared with only 40% for machine -planted trees, it is easy to see what people in the Oshawa area, with their annual payroll exceeding $17.1 million. The exchanges had 20,741 customers at the end of 1982 (11,030 In Ajax - Pickering). Last year Bell paid $448,635.44 in taxes to Pickering as follows: real estate, $18,924.86; business $5,344.28; gross receipts, $424,366.30. In 1983 Bell's gross receipts tax to be paid locally will amount to $335,185.95 in Ajax and $489,302.30 in Pickering. The real estate and business taxes for 1963 will be determined once the local mill rate is set. an outstanding job these boys are doing. This is the third Trees For Canada project which the Authority has participated in. The current planting will create a new forest to shelter the Cranberry Marsh wildlife sanctuary, a wellsnd of provincial sigpifkance. This project is taking place on a very appropriate date, during National Forst Week ( May 1-7, 1983). Forests are a vitally important natural resource. They serve as wildlife habitat, ground- water recharge areas, recreational areas and pro- duction areas for wood pro- ducts. Fn Pats also prevent soil avow and reduce flooding by socking up precipitation during rainstorms. In recognition of the im- portance of forests, the authority has a forest management program. Ac- tivities under this program include providing the public with advice on effec- tive woodlot management, protection of existing forests through plan review and reforestation projects. In the conservation areas, the Authority has planted several hundred acres of trees. There is also a Private Lands Tree Plan- ting Program. The authority will assist landowners with 5 or more acres (2 hectares) of pro- perty. The site to be planted must be at least 2 acnes and at least 2,000 trees mist be planted. Costs to the landowner are a $10.00 application fee, 2 112t per seedling purchas- ed and It per seedling planted. For further information on these and other pro- grains, please contact the Authority at (416) 579-0411. R.

That's the reaction of the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA) to word that the Ontario government will support the entrenchment of property rights in the Canadian Con- stitution, says OREA President Walter Dean. It is, Dean noted, the culmination of three years of lobby- ing efforts by the Association and its 24,000 plus member- ship, to ensure that such a fundamental right be given the protection of the new Constitution. Dean noted also that the issue is progressing in Ottawa where the federal govern- ment and Conservative opposition have agreed to pass such an amendment after a one day debate. The announcement by Premier Bill Davis is a major step forward in the battle to entrench property rights, Dean said, but there is still work to be done. In order to pass a constitutional amendment, not only the federal goverment but seven of the provinces with 50 percent of the population, must also agree. To date, British Columbia is the only other province to pass such legislation. For the Ontario Association, Premier Davis' statement is progress on one front of the property rights battle. The association has identified numerous other property rights issues through its publications, its Private Property Week (scheduled this year for October 2-10) and other studies and educational efforts. Such work, Dean said. will be con- tinued. Lost Track Dear Sir: Canadians it is said are the most heavily taxed people in the world with the exception of those living in Ontario, who are taxed even mart. Somehow I doubt that the people do- ing the taxing are as liberal with their own money as they are willing to share others. The Trudeau-Davis experience has hft its mark with the rise of the deserving meritocracy and a growing civil ser- vice of people who through their education or who they know feel that because they are the government they are worth more. Unfortunately the only productive source of ideas emanating from this congregation of heavies and trendies are new taxes. The people have lost the concept of exactly what the goverment does. Individuals lead society while the government governs and makes sure they don't go astray. Marc Lalonde was never intended to create jobs, beat your home, fuel your car and tell you what colour of socks to wear. Until people once again begin to rely on themselves and their own resources, while the economy awaits the income tax returns to quench its thirst, the government will always be there in the background like a fence around some cows in a pasture. Sincere regards, Gary Adamache Pickering. Ont. What Price Progress by Ellen M. Wiebe When we were kids, our Saturdays Were filled with wonderment. We'd pack a hunch, and on our bikes Off for the day we went. Our favorite spot was in the woods Along the railroad track With ponds and frogs, and birds and bugs And an old abandoned shack. We'd gather moss and violets For Mom on Mother's Day And the woods was white with trilliums That blossomed every May. I took a sentimental trip Badu to the neighborhood And found a busy parking lot Right where the old shack stood! I shed a tear for yesteryear And the world that I once knew And turned away from the childhood days Where once the trilliums grew! PICKE newsp0 _9".?

The Monarchist Viewpoint To the Editor Sir: It is evident from the current leadership race of the Pro- gressive Conservative Party, and from the Prime Minister's stated intention not to lead the Liberal Party in another election, that Canadians face a new generation of political leadership who will, for good or ill, guide our Dominion's fortunes through the 1960's and beyond. A cen- tral question which must be put to all contenders for office, and especially to the leaders of parties, is as to their stance on maintaining the Constitutional Monarchy, that pillar of Canadian democracy on which rests so much of what is just and decent and traditional about our country. Rejecting the Monarchial minimalism of the past decades, which has seen an often subtle erosion in both the substan- tive powers and symbolic presence of the Crown in Canada, the Monarchist League of Canada has prepared a Manifesto, listing eight reasonable demands which, we believe, Canadian loyalists should make of their public of- ficials with respect to the Monarchy. Mainstream Canada By W. Roser worth In the last couple of years, people from Newfoundland to British Columbia have been forced to accept a hefty dose Of economic reality, and the results have been fascinating. The "dose of reality", of course, came in the form of a recession that created massive unemployment. high interest rates. near -record business Block Parents The Scarborough Central Block Parents Committee will hold a special Awards Ceremony at the Scar- borough Civic Centre on Wed. May 18th, beginning at 8 p.m. Presentations of Awrd Certificates will be matte to individuals who have made an outstanding contnbu- tion to the Block Parent Safety Program in Scar- borough. The Block Parent Pro- gram was established in Scarborough in 1976 and now has over 6,000 parent members. Children are taught to go to homes displaying the red and white 'Block Parents' sign, if they are lost, ill or being bothered by strangers. For instance, we want the Canadian Citizenship Act to be amended to remove any doubt that the members of our Royal Family are indeed Canadians; we wish the status of GOD SAVE THE QUEEN as Royal Anthem to be enshrined by statute; and we wish to see the proud, indigenous name Dominion Day' restored as our national holiday, rejecting the sleepy duplicity by which 'Canada Day' was imposed upon us. Readers who might wish to obtain one or more copies of this Manifesto for their own consideration and, hopefully, for passing on to their Provincial and Federal legislators, should write to The Monarchist League of Canada, 2 Wedgewood Crescent, Ottawa, Ontario K1B 484. We must act now to assure the future of institutions which we have too often tended to take for granted! Yours faithfully, John L.. Aimers, Dominion Chairman & Founder Challenging times, changing attitudes bankruptcies and, most im- portant, a great deal of uncer- tainty about the future, par- ticularly as it pertains to jobs. The result: the attitudes of ordinary Canadians about spending and getting value for their hard-earned cash has changed dramatically, and people may never return to the heavy borrowing, free - spending ways that character- ized the IM. It's true, Canadians generally don't have as much money to spend, but they are even shepherding the money that is available. It seems we've made the giant kap from a nation of seemingly uncaring spendthrifts to one where frugality and value -for- a -dollar are paramount. Some retailers even contend that consumers are becoming so selective in their buying habits that the attitude verges on stinginess. The evidence? • Everyone in the country, it seems, is developing a rainy - day nest egg to offset the threat of a personal layoff, reduction in pay or a cutback in the number of hours worked. What else could explain the acknowledged fact that Canadians are saving a staggering 14 percent of disposable income (about S80 -billion), up So percent from a normal 9 to 10 percent. Attractive high interest rates have certainly played a role in this savings binge, but there is little question people are heeding the Boy Scout mato "Be P-epared" • While Canadians are sav- ing more, it follows that they are spending less, which is in- deed the case. Imports of mainly -manufactured goods were down 13 percent in 1982, and some major department store chains are losing money because of the drop-off in sales. Discount retailers and bargain basement operations, on the other hand, appear to be picking up business as con- sumers shop around. It seems we're really becoming price conscious. • Then there's the change in borrowing patterns. Simply put, we're paying off loans rather than increasing the balances to buy more con- sumer goods. Consumer credit (as a percentage of after-tax income) is now at its lowest level since the 19Ws, and even credit card com- panics are feelinng the pinch. Canadians are in fact paying down those "plastic" balances with the high, high interest rates. • Restraint in wage settle- menn. it appears, has suddenly became natural. One union after another has accepted the reality that many companies cannot afford big salary in- creases, so mediocre raises or even reductions have been negotiated. At the government Level, restraint programs have been grudgingly accepted. The point, of course, is that the average Canadian has reacted quite reasonably and realistically to excruciating changes in the economic en- vironment. Savings are up, borrowing is down and there is real soul searching and in- vestigation before major con- sumer items are purchased. Now, it appears the reces- sion is ending. Yet even the Policies included in Finance Minister Marc Ialonde's re- cent budget may not be enough to change people into free spenders again. That may take a long while indeed.

Elizabethan Feast At Pearson Collegiate Lords and ladies in their finest, peasants, jesters, Queen Elizabeth 1, the Ar- chbishop of Canterbury, and even Robin Hood and Friar Tuck are all heading for Lester B. Pearson Col- legiate on Wed. May 11. They'll attend the school's annual Elizabethan Feast, featuring period costumes from any Shakespearean Goat's Milk Not As Good by Gay Abbate Daisy the Cow, that old friend of milk lovers, is get- ting some competition these days from a newcomer to the dairy market - the goat. The popularity of goat's milk is increasing in Canada. Many people are Wming to it for its flavour while others, mainly milk allergy sufferers, see it as a substitute for cow's milk. While the idea of drinking goat's milk is relatively new to most Canadians, many people already enjoy goat's milk cheese. In fact, the makina of moat's milk cheese is important to the economies of many Euro- pean and Middle East countries. But before rushing out to buy some, there are some important facts to be con- sidered, says Beverly Musten, a nutritionist with the Scarborough Depart- ment of Health. Nutritionally, goat's milk conopares favourably with cow's milk in calories, pro- tein, carbohydrates, fat and choiestral. It even has 37 milligrams more calcium and vitamin A per 250 ml. than cow's milk. However, it is highly defi- cient in two key elements folic acid and vitamin D. For adults and children, these two deficiencies pe - sent no great problem since vitamin D is available in supolement form and folic a is abundant in all ,pen vegetables. VitaminD cannot be add- ed to goat's milk as it is to cow's milk because the law probibift its addition to any tbu cow's milk. Vitamin D is essential for the formation and maintenance of healthy teeth and bones. Folic Acid is necessary for the produc- tion of healthy red blood cells. For babies, goat's milk is not recommended, says Ms. Musten. While vitamin D supplement is available for infants, the absence of folic acid mean goat's milk should not be given to infanta. There is currently no folic acid supplement on the market. Babies need 50 ink"grams of folic acid 2000 Turn Out For Folk Dance When Scarborough students turn out for a dance around the square, they really turn out! During the 8th Annual All - Scarborough Folk Dance Jamboree, scheduled for May 9 and 10, a total of 2,000 students from 70 dif- ferent schools will take part in this outdoor event at Albert Campbell Square. The jamboree has grown from 1975 when five schools and 100 elementary students joined the non- competitive event. They'll be dressed distinc- tively - in everything from flared skirts to cowboy ker- chiefs - and they'll per- form 19 different ethnic dances from 6:30 until 8:30 p.m. both evenings. If the weatherman doesn't co-operate, the jamboree will take place on May 11 and May 12. each day. Goat's milk has also been able to help some milk allergy suffers. However, only about one-third of those who are allergic to cow's milk find they can tolerate goat's milk. Goat's milk is safe to drink because Ontario laws require it to be pasteurized before being sold. It can be purchased at health food stones, at select Dominion stores and through the Becker's chain of conve- mencesYogurted c uponn request. made with goat's milk are also now available. High School Students In Mecca Competitions play, a five -corse meal, entertainment between courses, chamber music, and a theatre -in -the -round presentation of Robin Hood. "It's hoped that the even- ing will bring the times of William Shakespeare to life for students," said organizer Barb Lord. "Mostly though, it's an evening's fun, food, and entertainment." Entertainment will in- clude folk dancing and sword fighting performed by Pearson students, as well as the theatre presen- tation. More than 200 students, all in costume, will take part in the festivities. Marketing students from "Some of the costumes Scarborough, Toronto, Peel and Halton School Boards participated in Marketing Competitions on Apr. 19 at the Scarborough Civic Centre.

May 4, 1983 THE MEW8IPOST PaprS► Museum Looking For Runners, Joggers & Walkers It's that time of year again - time for all fitness buffs to sign up for the most unique event on Toronto's 1983 sports calendar. The Royal Ontario Museum is again looking for runners, joggers, or walkers to participate in the Second Annual Nike/Labatt's Lite 24 Hour Relay race which will take place from 8 p.m. on Fri. June loth to 8 p.m. on Sat. June 11th. (Yes, they DO run all night!) The race will take off from Varsity Stadium, following the same cause as last year, with one lap around the Stadium track, through the University of Toronto's St. George Campers to Col- lege Street and back - a distance of three miles. The objective of the relay is for each team to com- plete the greatest possible distance in the 24 hour period. The teams, consisting of from 17 to 20 members, cover distances between 180 and 250 miles. Depen- ding on speed and ability, an individual competitor may complete as many as 15 or as few as 6 miles in the 24 hours. With pledges based on the total team mileage, last year's 24 team entries raised $83.500 in pledges and this year's figures are expected to double. All net proceeds go to the continuing develop- ment of the Museum's gaHeries- People of all ages and walks of life from all parts of the province are invited to take part in this unusual community affair. Last year's youngest competitor was 10 and the oldest 85 years of age. Unlike the Greeks who, at their Olympic games, were frequently known to drop dead at the end of a gruell- ing race, the ROM does not encourage such strenuous competition! Amongst those who have already committed themselves are: Canada Packers; Pitfield, McKay, Ross; Cara Operations Ltd.; Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce; Ministry of Citizenship and Culture; International Friendship Marathon Team (Owen Sound) and and abilities have the op- portunity of joining together in a sport's event that generates not only funds in support of the museum, but good will and good fun for all. Where else can we find the world of business, culture and sports so closely allied in a good cause?" In conjunction with the event, Varsity Stadium will be the scene of special entertainment, with prizes galore, bands, and an all - day FTITIESS FORUM on Sat. June 11th at which specialists in the field will speak on various topics Granite Club Runner's. related to this important Dr. James E. Cruise, subject.

HWY 301 Si I Page 6 THE NEWSIPOST Wed. May 4, 1963 Bill Watt's Worlds ON RECORD: THE TURTLES GREATEST HITS (A. & M.) It's been said that The Turtles "were best known for their hits and that their cleverness and adven- turousness was largely overlooked. " That probably means that they dared to flirt with sound commercial values. Certainly that's evident on this album which is all that the title implies. For those who might have forgotten, we remind you of Chip Douglas' great horn arrangements on Sound Asleep, the fine strings and vocals on You Showed Me and the almost medieaval quietitude of Lady O. A reminder too that Happy Together, arguably their biggest hit sounds just as good now as when we first heard it. A good album and well recornmended by this cor- ner. How can we miss? IN PRINT: We have a particular fond- ness for the Poetry Canada Review and its dedicated efforts to promote the cause of Canadian poetry. Well. PCR is in process of preparing its annual sub - miss. for support to the Canada Council and the On- tario Arts Council. Help is needed. If you're interested in the cause of Canadian poetry and wish to support it please declare yourself in a F' and send it to Poetry Canada Review, P.O. Box 1280, Station A, Toronto, M5W 1G7. All letters will be xeroxed and sent to the appropriate council with the '83-'84 ap- plications. It's not a dif- ficult thing to do and little enough to support the cause of a Canadian art. As seems so frequently to be the case we are behind in our book reviews. Accor- dingly we offer the usual reminder that the brevity of the reviews that follow is, in no way, to be con- strued as a measure per se of the book themselves. GOING MY OWN WAY (Doubleday). Forget the sensational excerpts featured in the popular press. It's true that Gary Crosby didn't get along with his father Bing. It's true that the latter was a strict - perhaps too strict - disciplinarian. It's also true, however, that as he matured Gary Crosby realized why his father was the way he was, that Bing himself probably realized his mistakes and. in his own reserved way, tried to make amends.

What we have here is a heartwarming, albeit ear- thy, book about estrange- ment between parent and child. One supposes that the National Enquirer can't be faulted for printing only the "juicy bits" that the hof polloi wish to read. But, it seems a shame that many will not go beyond them and take the pleasure to be derived from a story of parental love discovered however late in life. Perhaps we are overly sentimental but we found little sensational here. We found only a heartwarming (we make no apology for the word) story. We believe you will as well. SOFT PRE'TZII.S WITH MUSTARD by David Bren- ner ( Arbor House) . Of course you've seen popular David Brenner on televi- sion many times. Perhaps you've seen him at The O'Keefe. You might even have seen him many years ago at The Colonial on Yonge Street. You're surely aware of his book. It'd be easy to describe it as a collection of short reminiscences- Easy but not correct. Mr. Bren- ner has enough confidence in himself that he is willing to forego the exactitudes of grammar and express himself much the same way he does in his personal appearances. The result is quite beguiling and en - The book is funny as one might expect. But, it's more than singly that - Like all humour-ists he has a keen insight that allows him to peel back the out- ward manifestations of character and lay bare the emotion that engenders therm. We suspect that if Mr. Brenner reads this review he'll consider us over pro- found and he might be right. Suffice it to say then that there is indeed con- siderably more than humour in Soft Pretzels. Corroder his idea for a possible epitaph on a tomb- stone .. "If this is a joke, I don't get it." Wish to Hell we could write like that! AN IRREVERENT AND ALMOST COMPLETE SOCIAL HISTORY OF THE BATHROOM by Frank Muir (Collins). Here's another book that's more than simply funny. There is much information about ablutional habits throughout the world and throughout the ages. Con- sider the sixteenth century English proverb .. "wash your hands often, your feet seldom, your head never." One wonders if head is meant in the anatomical or nautical sense. Considering one of the advertisements that sometimes appears on this page we are quite taken by this from Nanny Says.. "A dry bed deserves a boiled sweet.- No weet."No disrespect is intended to Mr. Muir in suggesting that this is perfect bathroorn reading. Illustra- tions too. We have mentioned previously the pleasure derived from reading the first two volumes of Dirk Bogarde's autobiography. What pleasure then to report that the third volume is now to hand. It's titled AN ORDERLY MAN ( Academic Press) . Our review follows shortly. ROUND AND ABOUT: Saxophonist Zoot Sims is currently appearing at Lytes with a nice laid back show . . good jazz that creeps up and enfolds rather than the battering ram attack of so many younger musicians. It's been written that Mr. Sims was the first U.S. jazz artist to perform in a British club and that he in- fluenced a whole genera- tion of British musicians. Actually. American jazz musicians have been ap- pearing in Britain since the twenties. Further, we have an idea that it was he who was influenced by such British musicians as Poggy Pogson and maybe, Freddy Gardner. Certainly he has a purity of tone in the higher registers that we have experienced only with the latter two. It's academic in any case. The important thing is that Zoot Sims is here now and should be heard.

One of the most difficult things in jour- nalism is to describe it. Our problem as this is being written after Mr. Williams' opening is how best to describe his performance. It'd be easy to say simply that he sings his nice songs in a most pleasant manner. But, that wouldn't really tell a reader what to expect seeing him in person. There's a certain something about him that is quite winning and even ingratiating. Probably the best thing to say is that he is a fine entertainer but he doesn't seem to be. He seems to be the good natured guy from next door who has a nice singing voice, a good sense of humour and the ability to make anyone feel good. And, that's what we're go- ing to say. If you want to feel good, go see Paul Williams. We think you'll enjoy him. We did. Now then Mr. Williams, do you still think that all Toronto critics are tough" Attention Cake Decorators The Canadian Society of Sugar Artistry (I.C.E.S. af- filiate) proudly presents its first annual Cake Decorating Seminar to be held on Sat.

He also has served as president of the Association of Municipal Clerks and on May 26, at a conference in Minneapolis, he will run for Vice President of the In- stitute. Some day he would like to be the Institute's president. Poots says be can take on the new position because of his very competent. staff. His new job as ad- ministrative co-ordinator is not the same as that of a Chief Administrative Of- ficer who has department heads reporting directly to him. , The job he says is to co- ordinate functions and, through discussions, to achieve a consensus of the heads of borough depart- ments. He admits that he has turned down lucrative job offers to stay in Scar- borough. "I have always enjoyed the challenge of my work in Scarborough and am fortunate to have been given challenges which have been very rewarding. There was no justifiable reason to save." Another factor swaying his decision to remain in Scarborough is his family, who he says, is very Scar- borough oriented. Its wife Marlene was barn in Agin- court and he himself grew up and went to school in Scarborough. The Poots now have three grown children. Jack Poots is net all work and no play. For over 10 years he was a coach in the Wexford Hockey Associa- tion and retains the record of the most successful coach in Wexford's history with some 30 champion- ships to his name. He has also coached boys' hockey in winter and girls' softball in summer. As well, he was one of the organizers of the Bridlewood Community Association. Although he is no longer active in organized sports because of a problem knee, Foots last year took part in the first annual softball game between members Of Council and the Scar- borough Business Associa- tion. Unfortunately, he broke his little finger in a losing cause for the council team. Highlight of his 38 year career in Scarborough is the Civic Centre building. During the planning and construction of the building, Poets served as borough co-ordinator to oversee the project and is proud to say that the building was finished in 21 months and within budget. Poots also remembers fondly some of the people who played an unportant role not only in his life but also in that of Scarborough. These include Mrs. Betty Holland, his first boss whom he says always demanded perfection, Cliff Tripp under whom he serv- ed as deputy clerk and the present Mayor Gus Harris whom he describes as the master politician of them all in terms of providing leadership. of St -Hubert, to every Mom who comes into our dining room From 5 until closing on Saturday 7, and all day Mother's aye Sunday, May 8.

May 4, 1!n, Computer Literacy For All Secondary Students In 1961, the Durham Board of Education ap- proved a plan for the in- troduction of micro- computer technology to its secondary schools. The goal of the program was "by 19654K 100% of the students who graduate from secondary school will have had an opportunity to take a course in computer literacy, that is, in com- puter science, data pro- cessing or units on com- puters within other courses.,' To this end, a three pro- nged approach was launch- ed. First, staff was given the oppochmity to qualify to teach computer related courses. Courses were established at an awareness level, introduc- tory programming level, advanced programming level and finally at a machine language pro- gramming level - To date, 300 elementary and 250 secondary teachers have taken a total of 650 causes to upgrade their Skills. The second thrust was to develop course curriculum to be used in the classroom. At the present time, courses have been com- pleted or are nearing com- pletion in computer science grades 11 and 12, and com- puter awareness for grade 10. By September 19m, revised courses will be available for data process- ing grades 11 and 12 and course modules in technology grades 11 and 12.The final _ of the plan was to acquire equip - mad Again, a phaw4n period was established. At present, 190 micro- computers are in use in the secondary schools plus an additional 5o for support and training within the system These are supported by peripheral equipment such as disk drives, printers, cassette recorders and ar- bitor link up systems. The Board is considering the purchase of additional computers for elementary schools. 'These will aug- ment the 25 presently in the elementary schools which have bneen purchased with the help of School Advisory Committees and other in- terested groups. The educational system cannot ignore technological changes. The ARTS IN ACTION (Ages 8 - 14 years) Special care extends life of birch trees It is not uncommon to find birch trees in the landscape scene that are dying. These trees usually appear quite healthy until suddenly the top of the tree starts to die and this progresses down until the whole tree is dead. This decline is due to a com- bination of environmental fac- tors and not to any specific pest such as bronze birch borer, says Burke McNeill, Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food nursery and ornamental specialist. 'Kris pest is ususally blamed for the problem because it is found under the bark at the time of death and it does cause the final decline and death of the it Most people are not aware that in nature, birch is a relatively short-lived plant. McNeill says. Under good growing conditions. in the forest, its life span is about 40 years. During this life span. it is providing cover for other hardwoods and softwoods that, as they mature. take over the forest eventually forcing the birch to disappear. computer has had, and will likely continue to have a profand effect upon socie- ty. The Durham Board's In nature, birch grows in well -drained locations, near water, but never in it, and in most situations the root system is protected from direct sun by undergrowth of dogwoods and other plants that cover the forest floor. When we plant birch, most often we plant them in the lawn, in full sun and in poorly - drained heavy clay soils, McNeill says. Birches do well enough when they are Furst planted, but as they mature, the roots have a harder time surviving as they attempt to work their way in- to surrounding soil. In the Wring and again in the fall, the ground is often very wet and cool, causing the new roots. as they come in contact with these soggy conditions, to die or become badly stunted. During the hot, dry periods of the summer• the roots are stressed further because of drought. Birch root systems are very close to the soil sur- face and during these periods they are in direct competition with the surrounding turf. In addition, we seldom plant responsibility would seem to be to matte the best use possible of this new technology. For some, it will be in the arta of pro- TOWN OF PICKERING 1983 SUMMER CAMPS This summer, the Pickering Department of Parks and Recreation has created a wide range of funtastic summer programs for your children.

These stresses, wet soggy soils and drought, are the most important reasons for decline of the birch, McNeill says. Without a strong, vigorous root system, the birch begins to weaken. Insect pests such as the birch leaf miner add to these stresses if they are not con- trolled, further weakening the tree. Once the decline has begun, usually between 10 and 20 years after planting, the bronze birch borer causes the final decline and the top of the tree begins to die. By this time, the damage is done and chemical control of the borers, which is diffkuh to control even for professional arborists, is not going to be effective. The decline con- tinues until the tree dies. At this point, it is time to consider planting another birch tree or another type of tree that will stand up to the existing environ- mental conditions. If you decide to plant another birch tree. the follow- gramining and system analysis: for others. the repair and maintetautce of the equipment and for still others. the use and apphca- A Special program for working parents before and after regular camp programs.

Baetz paid tribute to the pro- vince's disabled athletes during the 16th annual Pro- vincial Sports Awards ban- quet April 22. "The disabled athletes spurred by an overall desire to achieve ex- cellence, continue to bring honour not only to themselves, but to this pro- vince," said Mr. Baetz. More than 400 amateur athletes received Achieve- ment Awards during the annual sports banquet in recognition of gold medal performances at national and international events. Also included in the even- ing's festivities was the presentation of Special Achievement awards to volunteers and the Cor- porate Sector Citation to companies which support amateur sport. Mr. Baetz said he was ex- tremely proud of the Athletes disabled athletes who com- peted for Ontario during 1982 and lauded their dedication, determination and will to succeed. "Once given the oppor- tunity to participate in a chosen sport, Ontario's disabled athletes, and in- deed athletes from across Canada, exhibit a desire to excel, and this desire transcends any handicap," said Mr. Baetz. "These young athletes exhibit high level skills and an ad- mirable degree of sport - 'p. „ The Minister pledged con- tinued development of sports programs for disabl- ed people in Ontario. He said that the disabled athlete would be given every encouragement to participate in sport and other areas of endeavour in the future. He noted that the 1983 On- tario Games for the Disabl- ed are set for July 14-17 in Brampton.

A machine made rug is meant for use simply as floor covering. When com- pared with the true onen tal, it lacks charm, originality, durability and investment value. A true oriental at ten years old would still be con- sidered oo-sidered new, and if you did want to sell it, you should show a handsome profit. There are very few things that have consisterily in creased in value throughout the decades as much as handwoven orien- tal rugs. Once you have decided that it is the genuine hand- woven rug you want, you must emphatically ask the salesman if he is showing you an authentic HAND- WOVEN RUG. Unfortunately, there are so many imitations in the market -place these days that is is very easy to get confused. A quick and fair- ly accurate test to see if a rug is handmade is to turn it upside down and look at the back. If it is genuine the design will show at the back as Clearly as on the face of it. However, if you cannot see the pattern on the back, then the rug is definitely not handmade. There are no exceptions to this rule. Wed.

May 4, 1983 THE NEWSIPOST Pape 17 Works & Transportation Committee Don't Always Succeed Scarborough's Works and Transportation Committee is continually being asked to install traffic lights, stop signs or to reduce speed limits in order to make roads safer for motorists and pedestrians alike. However, a recent report before the committee shows that these measures do not always succeed. One area where conditions have improved is at Brimley Rd. and St. An- drew's Rd. The installation of flashing amber lights and pavement markings to reduce the width of lanes have effectively reduced speed on Brimley by 2.4 km/h. During• the trial period there have been no colli- sions at this intersection. As well, the left -turn lanes provide pedestrians with a centre road refuge. The lights and road markings will remain permanently. However, things have not been so successful at Old Kingston Rd. and Military Trail. After a total of 10 colli- sions at this intersection in 1979 and 1980, the Works and Transportation Com- mittee recommended in- stallation of an overhead flasher. Since the flasher was put into place, there have been 14 collisions. Two other successful areas are Warden and Palmdale/Cass and Ellesmere and Meadowvale. The number of collisions since the in- troduction of left turn storage lanes at the in- tersection of Warden and Palmdale/Cass has significantly reduced the number of collisions. Stop signs and overhead flashers at the intersection of Ellesmere and Meadowvale have also reduced collisions. Out Of Towner Should Know People from out-of-town should know that Scar- borough is a Block Parent Community, the Works and Transportation Committee decided recently. To achieve this goal, the committee authorized the expenditure of $1,200 for an additional 20 signs along entry points to the borough. Most of the signs will go up along ramps exiting from the 401 into Scar- borough. Signs will also go up at Eglinton Ave. at Vic- toria Park and at Highway 2A leading from the 4o1. Each sign will cost the municipality $51. An addi- tional $25 is required every time a post has to be put up to hold the sign. Hydro Grass Cuttings The Hydro Electric Power Commission (H.E.P.C.) should abide by its agree- ment with Scarborough to provide three grass cut- tings along its right-of-way, the Works and Transporta- tion Committee decided last week. Despite a 1990 agreement in which it promised to pro- vide the same number of cuttings per year as the borough in order to have the same level of maintenance, H.E.P.C. has now decided on only two cuttings this year. The borough will be doing a maximum of three cuttings this summer. The committee passed a resolution that Scar- borough Council tell New Horizons Grants Federal government New Horizons for a total of $161,273 were awarded to 10 groups of retired people in the Toronto area recently. The latest groups to receive grants include: Sunset Group, Chester Le Boulevard, $5,080, to organize recreational ac- tivities for members of Trinidad -Tobago origin.

Dramatic Increase In Pitch -in Campaign Hundreds of thousands of Ontario residents, both young and old, have responded to the 1983 Pitch - In Campaign set for May 9 to 15. More than 1,800 organizations will par- ticipate in 1993, up almost 50% over 1997- "We 992"We are extremely pleased with the tremen- dous increase in participa- tion," states Rick Morgan, Executive Vice -President of the Ontario Federation of Anglers & Hunters, spon- sors of the yearly cam- paign. "It indicates to us that Pitch -In is a needed program which has cap- tured the enthusiasm of On- tarians. " Pitch -In projects planned range from community and school -yard clean-ups by kindergarten students to clean-ups of wilderness areas by conservation clubs. Participants in the 1992 campaign, which is endors- ed and supported by the Ontario Ministry of En- vironment, will be armed with more than 100,000 large garbage bags donated, primarily, by Shell Canada Limited. Pitch -In is a national pro- gram which originated in British Columbia in 1969 and which spread to On- tario, with the sponsorship of the Ontario Federation of Anglers & Hunters, in 1980. Other provinces which have participated in the program include Alber- ta. Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Scarborough groups par- ticipating include: General Brock P.S.; John G.

However, no one has yet said what would happen if H.E.P.C. refused to do so. 3 Cuttings By Metro The other body responsi- ble for maintaining much of the grass in Scarborough is Metro. Metro Roads Department has informed the borough that it will pro- vide three cuttings this year. Over the last few years, Scarborough has ex- perimented with only two cuttings but wet summers have resulted in tall grass, weeds and many com- plaints from the local citizenry. This time around, Scar- borough Council has allocated enough money in its budget for a maximum of three cuttings for all boulevards and parkland it maintains. Good Will Policy Scarborough's .'Good Will Policy" to reimburse homeowners who are faced with bills for unplugging clogged drains does not show much "good will'. says ward 12 alderman Bob Aaroe. Aaroe recently told the Works and Transportation Committee that after look- ing into similar policies across Metro, he can only conclude that Scarborough's "has the least amount of good will". Scarborough's policy reimburses homeowners only if the blockage is on borough property, if the blockage is caused by roofs on the borough part of the drain connection, if there is a structural defect in the borough connectioe and if the above conditions have been verified by borough staff. The whole question of the policy arose because the Works Department staff refused to reimburse a Bergen Rd. man who had to lay $ay to a private drain company to unclog his drain. Since the location of the blockage was not verified by staff, his re- quest was turned down. The blockage was ap- parently caused by the roots of an old maple tree located on borough proper- ty. This alone is grounds to pay the money, Controller Joyce Trimmer told the Committee. The Commit- tee finally agreed to recom- mend to Council that it pay the $85 as a sign of "good will". Money To Go To RoadfSidewalks Badly needed sewer. road and sidewalk repairs are going to get done in 1993 because of delays in the construction of the Bellamy Rd. Ravine drop - shaft. Although the M.T.R.C.A. has approved the funds for the d opshaft, the project cannot begin this year. This delay allows the borough to use funds allocated for the dropshaft in the 1993 budget for other projects. At its last meeting, the Works and Transportation Committee decided to use the $1.1 million for sewers and road construction on Milner Ave., for sewers on Ridgemoor, Latham, Pell St., Pell Lane and San. down, for sewers on Chine Dr. and Kelsonia and for gas migration control at the Morningside yard. The installation of sewers on Chine Dr. is deemed as a "high Priority" by works staff in order to stop Rlooding of basements in —; 18 THE NEWSIPOST Wed.

Committee Advises Board On French Language About 80 secondary schoolstudents from Durham region travel each day to 1'Ecole Secondaire Etienne BrOlt in Willowdale, where all sub- jects are taught in the French language. The students are from the francopbo ne communi- ty whose perogative to a French language education was estbalished m 1968 when French language secondary schools were in- stituted in Ontario. With the coming of the schools, French language advisory committees were formed by each board of education where the pro- gram was offered. In Durham region the com- mittee comprises nine members: six fran- cophones elected by French speaking ratepayers, who are also members of the Associa- tion francaise des Conseils sclolaires de ].Ontario, and three members appointed by the Durham Board. The committee aims at obtaining a quality educa- tion for its secondary school students and serves as liaison between the French electorate and the Durham Board of Educa- tion. It is responsible for developing proposals designed to meet the educational and cultural needs of the French- speaking students and may make recommendations regarding the transporta- tion of the students, teaching and ad- ministrative personnel, the establishment of specific courses, use of textbooks, etc. The school has an enrol- ment of some 600 students and more than 50 teaching and administrative person- nel. It offers 190 courses at four levels of difficulty: fundamental, general, ad- vanced and enriched. Latin is offered to those students takirrrt the classical option. In addition to the academic and some technical courses, the school emphasihnes the im- portance of physical and social development and of- fers a variety of sports, musical, cultural and social programs during and after scool hours. UNICEF announces its new spring line of greeting cards, personalized sta- tionery, notes, gift items and of course special occa- sion cards and calendars. This year's selection, now on sale, ranges from contemporary artists' designs to magnificent reproductions, all of which have been donated from around the world for use by UNICEF. Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West THE CULTURAL RICHES OF OUR ONTARIO - AN ECONOMIC AFFAIR The arts provide important social and economic forces in Ontario, and the increase in leisure time has had a direct ef- fect in the expansion of the province's cultural institutions. Over the past decade alone, professional theatres in our province have increased from 12 to 40; public art galleries from 11 to 75 and the number of orchestras has increased from 21 to 36. Growth in this area has increased employment oppor- tunities, generated expenditures for goods and services and provided economic spinoffs for restaurants, hotels and retailers. Ontario's cultural agencies include some of the freest at- tractions in Canada: The Royal Ontario Museum; The Art Gallery of Ontario; The Ontario Science Centre; The McMichael Canadian Col- lection: The Royal Botanical Gardens. In 1961-82 alone, these organizations attracted 3 million visitors (even with reduced service at the R.O.M. and 51cNhchael) ; pumped $31 million directly into the economy, generated an estimated $100 million in indirect economic benefits; provided 1,000 full-time and more than 100 part-time jobs; and earned $8.2 million in income and donations. The relationship between Ontario's cultural attractions and tourism is direct and mutually rewarding. For exam- ple, 29 percent of tourist spending is attributable to tourists whose main interest is cultural and historical attractions. Representing the second largest industry in Ontario, Tourism in 1891 generated $8.7 billion and created more than 500,00o jobs. The recent Chinese Exhibition at the Ontario Science Cen- tre attracted some 1.1 million visitors, of whom 40 percent were from the United States or overseas. In addition, the Exhibition raised $2.6 million in admission fees in the first five months, increased revenues at the Centre's restaurant by 26 percent and generated significant economic benefits for hotels and other businesses throughout the area. From now through mi"uly, the Royal Ontario Museum is presenting two major exhibitions - The Search for Alex- ander" and "'Treasures from the Tower of London". Harmltan's Royal Botanical Gardens is presenting "Art- works in the Gardens" -a visual arts festival -from May 1st through June 21st_ Spring and summer activities are get- ting underway at the Black Creek Pioneer village in Downsview. And of course the wMd-famous Stratford Shakespeare Festival opera in mid -Nay. All are within easy driving distance of the Durham Regwn and all are for family enrichment and enjoyment, When we support the creative and performing arts, our cultural irstitutims such as museums. libraries and ar- chives; and when we take an active part in the restoration, maintenance, visiting and support of historic sites and bmtoge properties. we are supporting Ontario. This spring and a comer, join the millions from around the world who take advantage of Ontario's cultural oppor- tunities. As you enrich your lives, you will be enriching the economy of our Ontario. Issues by Wayne Arthurs Local Councillor Ward 3 Pickering AT ISSUE: The Protection of Persons and Property: Background: Council is in the midst of the approval procedure for Pickering's first golf driving range. To the immediate north of the planned range is a residential property. The owner believes that his home and family could be in danger from golf balls being bit onto his property. The driving range ap- plicants believe that the likelihood of injury or danger are extremely slight. They have agreed to provide a protective barrier if needed. The design of the range is such that golf balls should not end up on the residential property. Council's Responsibility: The decision as to whether a protective barrier should be installed before the range opens, or when there is proof of damage or injury, is Council's. Can Council justifiably wait for such an occurrence before requiring protection? This is the fust operation of its type m the Town and Council has no precedent on which to base its decision. An Answer: Council favours the establishment of this new facility and does not wish to impose any undue financial hardship on the applicants. On the other hand, our primary responsibility is for the residents of the Town. Their safety must be uppermost in our minds, even if the chance of injury is remote. We would be derelict in our responsiblity if we acted otherwise. Postscript: The by-law implementing the driving range was passed last week. Through an amendment, only a minimal protec- tive barrier was approved and a provision for additional screening if required. W
