Those using the eight bour free parking were to a large extent employees of the plaza businesses and parking has been provided for there on Commiercial Ave. All day Go Train vehicles whtw h were parked in the Ajax Plaza can now• park in the north east corner of the Harwood Mall Plaza. The change in extended free parking hours by the Downtown Ajax Business Improvement Area Ex- ecutive will make it easier for those people wishing to spend more time shopping in Ajax.

Rotarians and their wives with friends and special guests formed a group of over 70 people to witness the presentation to Recreation Director Tom Quinn, of two special wheelchairs. The chairs will be available to handicapped people wishing to use the swimming pool and, having transferred from their normal wheelchair they will then be able to use the showers and enter the pool either in the wheelchair or from the poolside access ramp. In expressing his thanks on behalf of the Mayor and Council, Mr. Quinn welcomed the club as the first service club to use the complex facilities for a regular meeting. He then presented Rotary President David Stone with a certificate of acknowledgement for the club's contribution of these first two wheelchairs. President David thanked Mr. Quinn and suggested that as funds became available the club hoped to donate a further two wheelchairs so that each of the four change rooms would have one available at any time. After dinner the group was given a conducted tour by the three architects who were responsible for the design and construction of the new building: Bill Beddall and Jack Shukla, both members and past presidents of the Pickering Rotary Club and Jack's wife, Raji Shukla.

"KEEP StlIL1NG" Pickering 831.2222 V by Diane Mathesor Peter has jug' :.,wen over the position ui head coact: i ur .:.r Pickering Blue Dolphins. He began his coaching career :n Australia where for 9 years he taught from the "learn to swim" class right up to the top swimmers. From Australia he came to Canada and spent from 1972 to 1976 lo Regina as head coach of the Regina Optimist Dolphms and lectured at the University of Regina for the Physical Education Department. At that time Regina was the 2nd largest chub in Canada and it sent one swunrner to the WX Olympics who placed loth in the 400M freestyle. From there Peter went to London, England for 2 years developing a local club which placed 6th in Britain. From London to Manchester for 3 years as chid coach for the City of Manchester. There his swinsmers won a 4th place in Bri- tain at the senior level and a 1st in Britain at age group keel. Then across the Atlantic to 'Ilunder Bay for a short spell, and finally to Pickering. Peter describes the Blue Dolphins as a "young club of 30 members who are keen and dedicated to the pursuit of ex- cellence". He feels there are several potentially good swim- mers and his emphasis will be to develop the club so that it has a much stronger base of around 210 members. As part of the Blue Dolphins Swim Club he is introducing the new Rookies' Swim Program as a natural step in the Learn -to -Swim process and to get new members for the Dolphins. It will. among other things, develop the techni- ques and endurance necessary to swim longer distances which is not only important from a competition standpoint, but also from the safety standpoint. Registration for the Rookies is $10 with a $5 per month fee. Swimming will be 3 days per week, 30 minutes per day. gall Mus. Betsy Walters at 839`7373 for more information. The Blue Dolphins, in conjunction with the recreation com- plex is hoping that the Master's Swimming program will at- tract those age 25 and over. If you are interested in com- peting in you age group, 5 years per group up to age 80, watch for date of the meeting to be set up soon or phone the complex for information. We wish Peter every success in his new job and the Blue Dolphins Club the best of luck in their competitions this coming year. If Your Child Enjoys Reading - Take A Bow by Mk*i Beck, Teacher/Librarian Fairport Beach Public School Does your child enjoy reading? Is he doing well in school? Congratulate yourself! Take a bow, for consciously or un- consciously you have influenced his reading from the time you bounced him on your knee to 'Pat a cake, pate a cake, baker man'. A child is getting ready to read even before he enters school. Parents who enjoy reading themselves exert a sub- tle influence on a child's attitude to gooks. Sharing the rhythmical sound of words in nursery rhymes and early picture books not only provides the fun and closeness so essential to childhood relationships, it also provides the language experience and early listening skills necessary to (Continued on Pais 12) 1 Page 2 THE NEWSIPOST Wal. Oct. 12, 1963 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Cost Too High The idea of Canada being a nation with two languages is acceptable to almost all Canadians. It is an historic fact - and it makes us different from anywhere else. However, the latest drive by M. Trudeau to get complete bilingualism in all of Ontario is an absurd concept. First of all, we have bilingual zones, such as Metro Toronto, where TV, radio, newspapers and Frendrspea" schools flourish. Of course, most of the school students have anglophone backgrounds, but it does give equality to a small number of francophone Canadians. The most impor- tant point, though, is the high cost to bring about everything in two languages. The truth is that we can't even balance our provincial or national budgets. To have two languages on every single occasion is like trying to live in a million dollar house with a $'20,000 a year incase - it can't be done! Away back in the thirties in Ontario high schools stridents could learn French. German, Spanish, Latin and/or Greek. Many of us did, in fact, French was a compulsory subject thea.. in our opinion we should curb our expensive desire to more modest evolution of language. Oh, a final point - when is Quebec going to allow incoming anglophone Canadians to have education in F,nglish. We have yet to bear Mr. Trudeau complain about language rights in ' Ia belle pro- vence Holding Line Says Post Office Canada Post Corporation will not introduce postal rate in- creases orginally planned for the beginning of next year and will review the decision quarter -by -quarter through 1964. CPC Presiderut R. Michael Warren has announced. Speaking to the annual meeting of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Warren said the business decision to defer the rate increase is pent of the crown corporation's determination to be guided by a more "customer -driven" business philosophy. "An analysis of the market -place, with its economic uncer- tainties. and a survey of our customers, have indicated that we are close to the edge of competitiveness in a number of our product lines,.. Mr. Warren said. Canada Post is "a public business facing growing competition". Its exclusive privilege over traditional letter mail, accounting for the half its revenue, is "vulnerable and trader siege from modern communications technology" Other services such as Pnonty Past. Adman and elec- tronic mail generate the nest of postal revenues and are in direct competition with the private sector. "We're not afraid of competition but we do realize we must become customer-dnven if we are to survive,.. Mr. Warren said. ..In the first phase of the Turnaround, we concentrated on improving service in terrors of performance. It's now clear we also have to look at our competitiveness in terms of price- '-Ibis can only benefit you the customer," be said. Recalling efforts which in the two years since becoming a crown corporation have reduced the deficit from almost a billion dollars to less than $300 million while improving delivery service by ten percent, Mr. Warren said Canada Post will continue its efforts to achieve financial self- sufficiency and improve human relation with a nallb-point business program, including using value analysis budgeting in continuing to reduce corporate overhead as well as improving productivity in mail processing; reduc- ing high unit costs of the national collection and door-to- door delivery system; optimizing the network of 30 mechanized plants and 8,400 branch offices; pursuing new business opportunities in profitable market areas and ac- celerating employee-onented programs in health and safe- ty, quality of work -life, job enrichment, career planning and retraining, and fostering two-way communication. "In all of these steps the key element is going to be people,.. Mr. Warren said. As Canada Post moves into Phase II of its "Turnaround Program.' the three main ob- jectives of Phase I, improved service, improved employee relations, and financial self-sufficiency, will continue to be pursued. "At the same time a new corporate culture is be- ing created in Canada Post - one where the customer is recognized as the most important factor in our business," Mr. Warren said.

Condo Sales Rise The pattern of increased sales of Toronto condominium apartments continues unbroken, reports national realtor A. E. LePage Limited. According to a condominium market survey conducted by A. E. LePage's Research & Analysis Division ( covering the period from May 1, 1963 to September 1, 1963), unit sales have risen to 46 per month This compares with 30 units per month registered in the mid-November 1962 to May 1, 1963 period, the first time in ovr a year and a half in which sales had increased. Daryl Watts, Research err Analysis Consultant with A. E. LePage Commercial Real Estate Services. stresses that the ongoing improvement in sales activity underlines that market conditions still are "highly favourable" to pur- chasers. "Continued lower interest rates along with improving con- sumer oo-sumher confidence have resulted in a strong single-family resale housing market,.. says Watts. ' lois is a key point; for the majority of prospective condominium buyers, the ability to purchase is dependent upon the sale of an casting ly home - "Within the condominium market, incentives for buyers irich hde reduced prices, particularly in a number of com- pleted projects and, in some uses, financing that is being offered at below market rates. In addition, prospective buyers are finding that the purchase decision process has been simplified somewhat, thanks to the return of model suites to the market." This Month In Ottawa by Gord Gilchrist MP Scaf wirmigfl East Now that Parliament is again sitting and the fractions of government are back in full swing, the may affairs and needs of the natim must be dealt with. There is muni more to government than the cardboard front put an Parliament by Question Period on television and the so called "big" na- tional issues. Ever since 1979, Alderman Ed Fulton and I have been pressing the federal government to build safe crossings for the railways and roads at Morningside Avenue and Scar- borough Golf Chub Road in Scarborough East. There is also a need at McCowan Road in Scarborough Centre. These three crossings present a deplorable safety hazard to the thousands of people who must cross them daily. At a time when unemployment is high and job creation is the number one priority of the government, (it claims) there would be no better time to set about constructing these three badly needed grade crossings. The last federal budget earmarked some $4.6 billion ( the four year special Recovery Program) for the specific pur- pose of supporting job creating projects but, when I asked the Minister of Transport for his support, he simply advised that the old Urban Transportation Assistance Program (UTAP) was out of funds and would not come up for renewal until March 1984. In this Scarburough of ours, Canada's fastest growing community, there is a need to keep ahead of the developmental need. The influx of people to the hundreds of new homes and communities on both sides of the railway lines which bisect Scarborough creates a rapidly growing need for safety and efficiency at all grade crossings. Safety is the prime consideration but there are other needs as well. Many times each day at crossings all over Scar- borough, motorists and pedestrians alike are held up for many minutes which add up to many hours of inconve- nience and time loss. Engines are left running and hun- dreds of litres of fuel are burned up for no more useful pur- pose than to pollute the air further. The costs of these three grade crossings could be saved many times over and many badly needed jobs could be created if the government would reassess its priorities and accept its responsibilities to the taxpaying citizens of Scar- borough who have a right to safety at these particularly dangerous railway crossings. Last week, the new Nor- thEast Club of the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Toronto was officially opened at a ceremony at- tended by the mayors of East York, Scarborough and North York. Metro Chairman Paul Godfrey also spoke to a crowded room of business people and politicians. At left - Mayor Mel Lastman presented a fram- ed certificate to com- memorate the event to board president John Clarry Q.C. This new facility is design- ed for business people in the north east of Metro Toronto. The board has a downtown Toronto club as well as the Woodbridge Golf and Coun- try Club in the north west. (Photo - Bob Watson) Report From - Tom Wells MPP Scarborough North The recent presidents' meeting and policy conference of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party focused on a number of timely and thought-provoking issues. One of the most significant questions addressed was the challenge fac- ing Canada and Ontario in the international marketplace. There's no doubt that our economic well-being depends heavily on trade. An estimated 34% of Ontario's wealth comes from exports. Our hopes for unproved economic per- formance and the creation of new jobs rest on our ability to increase exports of manufactured goods and services. At the same time, we must keep in mind that competition for export markets is heating up. The next few years will bring declining tariff walls, more non -tariff barriers, a rise in service and high technology industries and a shift of labour-intensive industries to less-developed nations. We are living in demanding times and our ability to stimulate economic growth on a sustained basis will re- quire progressive export policies and initiatives. Perhaps most importantly. we will need close co-operation among ►industry, labour and government. In the policy session "Keeping Ontario Competitive", a distinguished group of panelists stressed the need for a team effort in meeting the export challenge. Addressing the conference, session chairman Don Coursens, MPP, York Centre, spoke of the need for a -compact between all elements of the domestic economy: business, labour, finance, academia and govern ment.' For too long relations among these groups have been characterized by confrontation and antagonism. With ex- ternal competition increasing, there is a real need to focus on ways to move forward in a mutually beneficial way. One area in which confrontation must be replaced by co- operation is labour -management relations. Canada's poor industrial relations record was noted at the session and it was pointed out that the success or failure of this relation- ship will to a large extent determine our future economic performance- Morteover, the panelists agreed that labour does not bear the full responsibility for Canada's poor productivity record. This, in fact, is caused by a variety of factors work- ing together. The need for federal -provincial and interprovincial co- operation was also stressed- Donald Noble of Northern Telecom Canada Ltd., said we spend more time competing against one another - province against province, region against region, Ottawa against provinces - than we do com- peting against other nations in international trade. This creates a picture of a nation "working against its own hest interests", he said. But this need not be. If we have the will, Canada, and especially Ontario, have the assets and opportunities to be leading international traders. Ontario Industry and Trade Minister Frank Miller demonstrated that will last month when he announced a five -point strategy to increase the province's annual ex- ports to $60 million by the end of 1967. Keeping Ontario competitive must be the goal of all of us. If each sector of the economy is prepared to work co- operatively with the others, building on our many strengths and resolving our differences, we will be well placed to meet the challenges of the future.

However, since the end of June, entry to the designated staff parking has been controll- ed by an electronic gate which requires the inser- tion of a special card to open. These parking controls were installed to make sure that employees of the Canada Life building just east of the Civic Centre did not use the city lot for park- ing.

The group has asked the Minister of the Environ- ment, Andrew Brandt, to have the city of Scar- borough prepare a full en- vironmental assessment of the proposed interchange. Brandt, in turn, has asked the newly formed En- vironmental Assessment Advisory Committee to review the whole matter and make a recommenda- tion to him before Oct. 19th. Earlier this year, Scar- borough Council hired the consultant firm of DelCan to design the interchange and overpass and to carry out an environmental evaluation of their design.

In a brief presented to council, the Brimley Area Community Association, highlighted some of the areas where they felt that DelCan study was defi- cient.

The BACA also is not pleased with the report's recommendations to alleviate the significant traffic increases by install- ing more traffic lights and enforcing the present truck ban between 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. The Delcan envuvnmen- tal assessment was prepared according to the provincial guidelines but the community groups want it bumped up to an in- dividual assessment because of their concerns of the impact on their lives.

"The hotline will also cut down delays at post offices by reducing the need for information at the point of sale. ..While Christrr>S� rates and deadlines are posted at all our facilities, there are variances for different destinations.

Any parents wishing to participate should call the church of- fice right away. playing a hoax on Ontario residents. Faubert says that 1964 is not the province's bicenten- nial but rather merely celebrates the date when land was given to some people in Kingston. The real bicentennial will be in 1991 says Faubert, since the province came into be- ing in 1791. The controller told his col- leagues on the Board of Control that "if we go along with this, we will be perpetuating a hoax on the people of Ontario." Controller Joyce Trimmer asked staff to research the matter and find out exactly when the province's bicentennial really is. However, Controller Mor- rish wants Scarborough to take the money since the province is not attaching any strings to the gift. "It doesn't happen very often", he noted. Controller Carol Ruddell disagreed. "We've never gotten anything for nothing from the province and I'm sure this money won't be free either." She wants the province to handle all the celebration since it is their responsibW- ty. "It's not worth the time and the energy of the municipality of Scar- borough," Ruddell said. Despite Faubert's objec- tions, Board of Control voted to accept the money from the province and ask- ed the Commissioner of Recreation and Parks to prepare a list of special projects and events on which the money could be spent.

Kissing that old flame goodbye isn't the only way to reduce vour oil consumption If that oil furnace is still in good shape you can take advantage of converting to a dual energy heating s}stem. Instead of replacing your furnace, introduce it to an electric plenum heater, heat pumps electric bailer or baseboard heaters. These dual energy systems let oil and electricity work in harmony to heat your home more efficiently and more economically. Operation is simple. The electric systern works until the coldest winter days, then your oil furnace automatically takes over. In most cases, add-on electric heat will reduce oil consumption by up to 75%. Ewen more in some cases. And a reduction of that magnitude can make a dramatic difference to the total cost of heating your horn. The Pleriun Heater The "plenum" is the warm air chamber at the top of your forced air oil furnace. That's exactly where a plenum heater is installed. So that on most days, the fan circulates more economical, electrically generated heat. The Heat Pump Even on cold winter nights, there is still warmth in the outside air. Just like a refrigerator, the heat pump extracts that warmth and pumps it into your home. Plus there's an -----_j added bonus. In the summer, your heat pump works in reverse and becomes a central air conditioner. The Electric Boller If you have an oil fueled hot water heating mstem, there's another aher- native. You simply add an electric boiler. It's no bigger than a \` small suitcase and can be easily installed. GoFlectricO Baseboard Heaters Ekectric baseboards can also be used as a dual energy system. They're installed in individual rooms to quietly handle most of the heating load. >r 1 J The Tune is Right Todav is definitely the time to investigate the savings of introducing your oil f u- rate to an add-on electric system. The COSP ,Canada Oil Substitution Pro- gram ' ro- gram' grant will pay for half of the in- stalled cost or $800, whichever is less, on all systems where oil consumption is reduced by 50" ro or more. To find out more about the benefits of a dual energy system, contact your local Hvdro or electric heating con- tractor today and ask them about special assistance that could lead to even greater sayings. And tell your furnace to get readv for a warm and meaningful relationship this winter. Page 6 THE NEWS Wed. Oct. 12. 1983 Bill Watt's Worlds ON SCREEN i IN PRINT: It was intended that you would read here a review of Osterman Weekend, the motion picture from Twen- tieth Century Fox that has just opened locally. There will be no review in this col- umn however and the reason is simple. We didn't see it . The reason for us not seeing it is what we want to mention. Many of the films review- ed here are, of course, seen at private scteeitgs. With so many openings, it's the only way in which a reviewer can see them all in time to present valid reviews at the time of release. From time to time though, one's schedule is such that it's in order to see a motion picture in a theatre. This is probably the ideal way use if affords the reviewer an opportunity to note the audience reaction. Now at this point, let us confess that like Bruce Kirkland, we still like movies but we no longer like going to them. It seems to us that the efficiency and even grace that one used to associate with major theatres no longer exists. The worst offender is the Imperial Six. We have at- tended many showings there snare we fast started movie reviewing and have never enjoyed the theatre. To be fair maybe we are Still annoyed at the way in which it has been cut up in- to six theatres. Still, it has always seemed to us to be ill maintained and poorly run. Anyway, we had an invita- tion to attend an advance screening of Osterman Weekend there recently. Remember now that it was a printed invitation and there are only as many in- vitations as there are seats. It was a brisk night and we were grateful to be able to walk right in to the theatre. We approached Theatre I and gave our in- vitation to the ticket taker. He tore it and we proceed- ed into the viewing room. At that point, he put his hand on our arm and asked if we had not seen the lineup outside the theatre. We allowed as how we hadn't but weren't concern- ed since this was an invita- tional screening. The youngster was polite but unyielding. We would have to stand outside on Yonge Street. We sug- gested that it was singular- ly appropriate because we'd see Hell freeze over before we would stand out- side for an invitational situation. It was a perfect example ane supposes of cutting off one's nose to spite one's face. We suggest too, however, that it was a perfect example of the Telephone r ' 1 : ^ \ • 1 i .y ices • ...:: ��"'� RESTPX . 4125 Steeles Ave. East e 170 St C•aa'e St .

We apologize to our readers and to Twentieth Century Fox for the non review but damme if we'll apologize to the manage- ment of the Imperial Six unless or until some ex- planation is offered for what appears to be operating idiocy of the highest order. In good will, however, let us commend to you -The Making Of The Return Of The Jedi" (Ballantine). This has been on the paper- back best seller list for so long that we thought surely almost everyone had read it. It seems though there are still many who have not and to them we highly recornmend this most in- teresting little book. If it does nothing else for the reader it affords an in- sight into the fascinating world of film production. Detailed but readable, brief but not terse it's the sort of book that can be read with equal ease and enjoyment in your study or on the subway. It's good, really good . . almost as good as the movie ( from Twentieth). Another film we haven't yet seen is "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence". We understand that it's a dnroniicle of the lives led by Allied prisoners of war at the hands of the Japanese forces during World War II. Not having sem it we can- not comment on how ac- curate a picture_ it presents. If you really want to know how it was, however, read Death March - The Survivors Of Bataan (Academic Press). These are the tape record- ed recollections, as told to Donald Knox, of those who survived capture in the Philhpines in the early years of the war and subse quent incarceration in the islands and in Japan. It's a brutal book and one that angors. And yet, it ap- pears that even among the savage captors there were some who were decent and tried to be humane. Among the prisoners there were those who became almost as brutal. Glory of War? Those who survived it will attest that there is none. Those who have never served would do well to read this book . . particularly on Remem- brance Day. Doubleday was the first publishing conWany with whom we became associated long ago in our T.V. days. We particularly enjoyed and found useful to our purpose the splendid books published by their associate company Oc- tD�on't ask us whence came the mune. We don't know. They are for the most part what are known as coffee table books and the visual values of them were useful for television which is a primarily visual medium. Well, we've received the latest catalogue from Oc- topus and once again are just knocked out by the goodies offered. Space does not permit us to list them all but we commend to you Encyclopedia Of The Planet Earth. A solid reference text, it also con- tains 356 colour illustra- tions and 172 black and white within its 320 pages. We are really taken however by the economical cost which it shares with all the other Octopus publica- tions. It's only $16.95. Or- dinarily we don't mention prices here but when something so good casts so little we feel constrained to pass it along. ON RECORD: Chuck Mangione and Gato Barbieri are two musicians whose work we hugely ad- mire while admitting that a little of them goes a long way. On their albums for example, one must often "tolerate" some cuts while waiting for the ones you really like. Well, this problem has been nicely solved, for us at least, with the release of two albums from A. & M. The first is The Magic Of Mangione and the second is Passion And Fire Gato Barbieri. They are "best or' collec- tions and we are delighted by both. The former in- cludes Give It All You've Got, Feels So Good and our personal favorite, the main theme from Children Of Sanchez. The latter presents She Is Michelle, Europe and one of our all time favorites. Poinciana. So to all of you fans who have been limping along with a coHection of singles from this talented pair. we recommend these two albums for complete satisfaction. ON YOUR TOES: Hard an the heels of the Royal Ballet (migawd, what a metaphor!) comes Les Grards Ballets Cana- dieas to The O'Keefe. They will be here for only five performances from Oct. 25th through the 29th. You'll be reading and bear- ing elsewhere about what is to be presented but we wish to point out two works in particular that you must not miss. The fast is Tommy the spectacular multi -media rock ballet to the music of The Who. This is a major revival and well worth the wait. The other work is a pre ns>. ,1 and it's titled Astaire. Many are prone to forget that buret dancers are the masters of all forms of dance and you really haven't lived till you see one doing some mean downright hoofing. Well, we suggest that's what you're going to see in part in Astaire to the melodies of Irving Berlin, Vincent ( Tea For Two) Youmans, Jerome Kerns and Can ( The Continental) Hmm . . we've been a stretcher bearer with The National Ballet and a sabre waver with Ballet Russe. Wonder if Les Grands would let us shine up our old tap shoes. AROUND AND ABOUT Recently we attended a charming luncheon party at Le Rendezvous on Prince Arthur for Miss Brenda Eubanks who is the Canadian Director of Con- sumer Affairs for the Florida Department of Citnis. It was wonderfully low key and yet so well does Miss Eubanks do her job that one takes in a wealth of information about the citrus products of Florida. We have much more printed information that we'd be delighted to offer to any reader upon written re- quest but thought you might be interested in the following. Did you know that Toronto Ross Petty and Kathy Michael McGlynn in a scene from They're Playing Our Song at the Teller's Cage Dinner Theatre. is the third largest consum- ing market in North America for Florida grapefruit? In fact, it seems we eat more grapefruit than we do oranges. There's a significance there but it escapes this bumble auditor. In the same week we at- tended the fall kickoff of Global Television in the Pinnacle LowIge of The Sheraton Centre. For us the highlight of the evening was the opportunity to speak with Jan Tennant. We've always admired her air of sophistication but in person she exudes positive glamour' - Fact is, one now has dif- ficulty taking in her news broadcasts knowing just how incredibly attractive she is. Our thanks to Averill Maroun Witteveen, Manager of Media Rela- tions at Global and to David Hamilton, Senior Publicist for the opportuni- ty to meet and m the good Global People. The Sheraton Centre is more and more becoming a part of this city's good - times fabric. It was the venue for last Monday's Doras ceremonies as car- ried on CBC. Try to make it sometime this weekend to the Boat Show at the International Centre. Among the many attractions will be Ontario's good will am- bassador for our province's bi-centennial. It's a house boat that will be making a 6700 mile cruise through the inland waterways of Canada and the United States.

The Rev. Dr. Matthew Fox, a Dominican priest, writer and popular lec- turer, will be engaging in dialogue with Dr. Brian Swimme, a scientist who taught mathematics and physics before becoming co-director, with Matthew Fox, of the Institute in Culture and Creation Spirituality in Oakland, California. .'The vast majority of theological writers today have absolutely no understanding of what science is about," Swimme says, adding that many of them "have utterly nothing to say to me as a scientist.' In the writings of moderns like Teilhard de Chardin and mystics of the past like the 14th Century Mr. Eikhart, he finds understandings of humam- ty's place in the cosmos, and of the cosmos itself that parallel the concepts of contemporary physics. For his part, Matthew Fox sees the pitting of science against religion that developed over the last 300 years as "tragic and grote- que.

Could it be char style of clothing? In the past, we would see the girls squeezed into fad- ed Mac jeans and white T-shirts, with their names pressed on the backs. Their running shoes would be a half size too large. with the lacers straggling along the ground - As for the boys, their Levis were worn with tears in the knees and rips in the pockets. Their lumber jackets were their pride and joy. And, of course the worikboots- These weren't just any workboots, these had to be scuffed up before they were worn, never tied, and a size too big so that xben they walked down the hall they were HEARD. Kodiaks were preferred, steel -toed at that. But now, ladies an gentlemen, take a look at this year's new fashions. They are unlike any other year. There is no real "in" fashion. It could be said (ContMeued from Page 1) that the fashion is the "to each his own" style. It's origuiality en. Anything from penny - loafers to tiger -skin T-shirts have been observ- ed in the cafeteria. halls and library. The girls are in dresses, with lengths ranging from thighs to calves. Every colour im- aginable an be found on any girl, and for that mat- ter. on any guy. The boys an be found wearing leather ties and designer jeans, with multi- coloured collared shirts. Still, there are the basic T-shirt and jeans students to be seen, looking as proud as ever. Their style still makes them fed dignified. Some may feel our generation's taste is outrageous and disgraceful, but there are those who realize that this generation is showing a new characteristic: teen- age style originality. This fust step expresses pride and individuality. It may be just what we need to improve our society. If Your Child Enjoys Reading basic reading skills. Looking at the world through a child's eyes can enhance the adult life. Talking about visits, books and new ex- penences with a child will add to his vocabulary and ability to express himself. Encouraging questions and speaking clearly to a child will equip him with a better learning ap- proach. ( The child who uses 'baby talk' finds that the words and symbols he is trying to read at school are not the same as the ones he uses.) When books and stones are shared and discussed throughout the early years they soon become a necessary part of a child's life. Books will have meaning and the motivation to decipher the printed word has already been fostered before school begins. Does your child enjoy reading? Is he doing well at school? Congratulate yourself. Take a bow! Report from oueen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West ONTARIO TRAINING INCENTIVE PROGRAM In recognition of the important role which training plays in the employment opportunities available throughout the Province, the Government of Ontario has recently announc- ed the creation of the Training Incentive Program. Training is an investment in Ontario's economic future and it is an important investment that pays off - for the trainee, the company, and the Province. The Ontario Train- ing Incentive Program (OTIP) provides cash incentives to employers who hire and train an unemployed or bud -off worker or who retrain a worker who is already employed. The maximum length of the training program is four years, and employers will be eligible for $1,000 for each year the worker remains in the program and an additional $1,000 bonus to cover a 10 weep familiarization period (new employees only) . Participants in the program will be paid for their training, and will also receive $1,000 a year for each year they re- main in the program. The Ontario Trairift Incentive Program will provide enriched incentives in six specified training areas: draughtsmen/ women; systems analysts and program- mers; chemical process operators; industrial electricians; instrument repairmen, women; irdnstnal maintenance mechanics ( millwrights) . As part of their training, trainees may also attend a col- lege of applied arts and technology for a maximum of 50 days each year (valued at $1,5o0iyear) at no cost to either the trainee or the employer. Employers who hire and train an unemployed or laid -off water in another occupation will receive a $1,000 banns if the worker remains in the OTIP program for are year. The Honourable Bette Stephenson. Minister of Colleges and Universities. indicates that the OTIP concept marks the first time that a bonus payment idea has been imm- porated in a job retraining program. OTIP is expected to create approximately 9,000 new training positions over the next year. Employers eligible for OTIP assistance must have been operating since September 19, ism, and must guarantee that training will not result in the dismissal. layoff or reduction in the regular hags or period of war of existing employees - The Ontario Training Incentive Program, supported by the Board of Industrial Leadership and Development (BIL.D) and adrimustered by the Ministry of Colleges and Unviersities, is another example of the Ontario Govern- Meot's commitment to placing this Province back on the road to economic recovery. 4. Speaking To You Scott feneeN M.P. Otttxio Riding It is high time for the Government to start concentrating on formulating a definite policy on re-training both the unemployed and working Canadians. Study after study has recommended that the Government should be considering this proposal, yet the Government makes no decision, while there are 1.5 million Canadians unemployed. Why is the Govenime nt waiting? Technology is here to stay - and Canada is falling behind other countries who have identified this problem and are at- tacking it and are creating new policies in conjunction with the business sector which will encourage re-traiming both in the private and public sectors. In Norway, for example, officials have recognized the fact that technological change involves both problems of unemployment and the re-training of present manpower. Because of their foresight, they will be able to erre that private businesses will have a sufficient amount of skilled workers on hand. The costs of any plans could be shared equally by the Government and private enterprise which, I am sure, would in the long run be less costly to all rather than the alternative of spending billions of dollars in unemployment insurance benefits. The workers and the knowledge is out there. We have been waiting far too long -- it is time to take advantage of what is presently available, build on it, and establish a definite policy on re-training in Canada.
