Auberge is a shelter which operates in the Durham region for abused women and their children. Warmawn is power. volunteers were told at an onenta- tion program for Auberge, a shelter for abused woman. The more information and support we can give a woman, the better able she is to make decisiains. A paralizing sense of having no control over her own life was the reason explained by Mary Dumnais, volunteer co- ordinator. oordinator, that most women stay in an abusive situation. United Way Ends By Josie Newman The Ajax -Pickering United Way 1964 fund- raising campaign which started with an ambitious goal of $391,000 in October ended with a bang last week when the agency sur- passed that mark with ease - by $60,000 - to sail on to a grand total of $451,293. At a post -campaign lun- cheon meeting, Patricia Mackenzie, campaign chairman, attributed the overwhelming success of this year's drive to better communications between United Way member agen- cies and participating com- panies. She stressed the necessity of reaching cor- porate donors "where they live" by emphasizing the human element of the drive. "People can relate a lot better to helping a blind child or a wheelchair- bound MS victim than some huge organization and its member agencies whose functions they're not entirely sure of," Macken- zie told the crowd of con- tributing company representatives, member agency workers and cam- paign workers. She cited visual or 'hands-on' examples which helped draw more support from companies this year ; a new campaign logo depic- ting a thermometer with the mercury slowly rising as more money poured in and a promotional film il- lustrating programs the United Way and its member agencies use donations to sponsor. The thermnometer logo was used to build suspense throughout the luncheon. The chairman of each of the eight fund-raising categories, such as educa- tion, developers and com- mercial enterprise, inter- mittently piled boxes in a vertical column on the bead table until the ther- mometer puzzle was com- plete. The amount raised in his or her category was in- scribed on one side and on the other was the grand total of the whole cam- paign.

The mayors of the region's eight municipalities and the regional chairman decided last week to form the task -force after receiving the report, which was prepared by a student 'researcher for the ministry of the solicitor general, criticizing the region's lack of preparation for a nuclear emergency. Although the region does have a nuclear emergency plan in place, the study says its staff and police of- ficers sadly lack in the necessary specialized training. The region is ill- equipped to notify the 107,000 residents living in the "primary zone". within a 10 km radius of the plant, of an eme genncy or to ar- range for transportztion or traffic control in an evacuation. Two highschools, Ajax and Dunbarton, identified in the current plan as evacuation centres are located in the primary zone and their principals were unaware the facilities were to be used in an emergen- cy. Researcher Shelley Stamp alsoeo9 dude I the region, which as host municipality would be responsible for 63,Ooo evacuees, is now capable of providing services for only 6,000. Pickering Mayor Jack Anderson said the report's criticisms are valid. "We can't continue to stick our beads in the sand," he said adding that the potential for human error makes the possibility of a nuclear ac- cident a reality. The regional emergency planning co-ordinator, Dan Matthews, said the well- written repot pinpoints his gravest concerns that staff are inadequately trained to handle a nuclear emergen- cy" Regional chairman Gary Herrema said the terms of reference of the task force, whose members will in- clude local politicians, school board, hospital and health officials, will be set in two weeks and a report will be made in six months. In a letter to Chairman Herrema, Solicitor General George Taylor said, "there is much that needs to be done in order to bring nuclear planning and preparations to an accep- table level. " The recent critique was accompanied by a guide for municipalities to use in nuclear emergency plann- ing. Regional plans must conform to a provincial plan, the current one being under review since 1982. C.M. FURS CO.

(416)283-9669 P4W 2 THE NEWSIPOST Wed Dec. 5, 1984 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Should Cut Back Scarborough Council members are busy approving of a four percent increase in their pay and frankly, we believe that this is a vear to hold the line or even reduce council members' pay to give leadership in our country's economic battle. At Ottawa Prime Minister Mulroney has given leadership and announced a reduction in pay for himself and other politicians and we believe that psychologically this will curb the appetite of everyone in the political area from grasping for more and more tax dollars. With the salary of an alderman in the $26,000 bracket, we must ask if the taxpayers are getting "full time work" from everyone. You see there is no "boss" of a politician on local council to determine whether he or she is at work. We must hope that most are putting in the hours of wrestling with people's complaints or questions and working in commit- tees. However, in our opinion this is the time for politicians to give economic leadership and hold the line on their own salaries to encourage others to do the same. Probably some politicians give more value to the job than they get paid and for them we must give praise for dedication and devotion to duty. However, that is not the impression we get about all members.

Sexual Assault Centres Regional treatment centres for sexual -assault vichms, more emphasis on local health care planning, and the need for Ontario hospitals to adapt to current economic challenges were highlighted by Health ,Minister Keith Nor- ton in a major address to the Ontario Hospital Association (ORA) last week. The regional sexual assault treatment centres are to be established throughout Ontario. Mr. !porton said. "I am asking emergency health committees of district health councils to make recommendations to me for the designa- tion of such treatment centres,'- Mr. Norton added, while acknowledging, at the same time, the valuable role plaved by rape crisis centre workers and police in working with hospitals to assist victims of sexual assault. Three centres are currently in operation: St. Joseph's in London, Chedoke-McMaster in Hamilton and Women's Col- lege in Toronto. "Each of these hospitals is able to provide expert care to sexual assault victims through the use of physicians and nurses trained in appropriate procedures."

Together they farm an unrecognized "invisible minority' Like women in the same age group. they need affirmative action to break down the barriers of "agism" that socially accepted form of discrimimation against which them has Wants 420 Volunteers A Umvesity of Toronto researcher is seeking as close to 420 volunteers as possible by Dec. 31 for a study of AIDS and related illnesses. In particular, men who have had sexual contact with a partner who has been diagnosed with AIDS or related illnesses are asked to contact the study's office. In addition, wen who are themselves ill with Acquired Im- mune Deficiency Syndrome (AWS) or related illnesses, such as AIDS-related Complex (ARC) or persistent Lym- phadenopathy Syndrome (PIS). are also urged to can. To date, 63 wen have volunteered for the four-year, $1.3 mullion shdy to investigate why some men are more susceptible to AIDS than others. The research will also pro- vide more refined estimates of this syndrome's incubation period and its degree of infectiosne ss. The participating men will have the benefits of total confidentiality, careful medical attention for up to three years and direct access to professionals who can assist with any concerns they have regarding AIDS. According to Dr. Colin Soskolne (Saus-Coley-Nee ), the chief investigator, the number of Canadian men diagnosed with AIDS and related illnesses continues to grow. Since the first case of AIDS was reported in Canada in 1962, 43 instances of the disease have been diagnosed in Metro Toronto. Dr. Soskolne says that for each known case of AIDS, there is evidence to show that there are about 10 people suffering from AIDS-related illnesses.

Against Death Penalty "Murder is an offence against God", and lending the sanc- tion of the state to it still doesn't make it right - Working from this fundamental position. the executive of The United Church of Canada's General Council has voted to continue its opposition to capital punishment. Member of the executive. representing the church's con- stituency across the nation, also shared in the sense of na- tianal anger over the recent rash of killing of police officers. The church resolution expresses sympathy for the deep sense of hurt experienced by the families and colleagues of the victims of such crimes. It goes on to can for measures such as tighter gun control legislation to better protect the lives of police. The resolution warns, however, that to give in to "an eye for an eye" mentality will serve simply to further brutalize Canadian society. Such a mentality, says the church, will escalate. not de-escalate, the level of violence. The church action maintains further that there is no evidence that the death penalty has ever been an effective deterrent to murder.

Budget Breaking Guidelines Says Musinski by Gay Abbate The Board of Control - Scarborough's budget com- mittee - is trying to hood- wink taxpayers with its handling of the 1985 capital budget, claims a Scar- borough alderman. Marilyn Mushinski says the board of control engag- ed in `kindergarten simplicity" when it tried to explain away why its capital budget is about $1.8 million over the guideline approved by council. The 1985 capital budget is $18.1 million in total but subsidies from various government sources and reserve accounts drop the amount Scarborough has to borrow for next year to $9.7 million well over the $7.9 million guideline. The capital budget represents projects such as new roads, sewers, sidewalks, parks, fire halls and libraries for which the city borrows money. Instead of cutting out pro - jests to bring the budget in line with the guideline, budget chief Ken Morrish proposed to make one of the more expensive project items in the budget a special project and deben- ture it 100%. Council's present policy is to pay for 50% of capital project costs out of the operating budget in order to reduce the amount of money borrowed and the interest which must be paid back. The project selected for 100% debenture is a new road - Corporate Drive - which is an east -west road across McCowan to line with Progress Ave. The project includes a grade separation at McCowan Rd. This road is designed to make exit from the Town Centre area onto the 401 easier. Morrish told the board that by treating it as a special project and borrow- ing 100% of the money, the Centennial Rouge United by Millie Hull Sorry I missed you last week but the time between Every Family visiting (which was very suc- cessful) and U.C.W.

Thu week things got mix- ed up somewhere and our guest speaker from the Bi- ble Society failed to show. Rev. Butler did a very good i:mpi ornptu talk on the work of this organization and sent us to our fellowship hour with a little extra time to spend. However, in the evening M.m. Lome Burns did not disappoint us by any means. Her organ program was eccelknt and a good audience enjoyed it im- mensely. We had Christmas songs, a few carols, polkas, a samba and waltzes. It was a most enjoyable evening and perhaps we will have her back for a repeat performance at another time. Our thanks to the committee who made all the arrangements and gave us such a delectable lunch following. Next week we continue the Advent program with our White Gift Service with the Sunday St-hool pupils and young people participating. Gifts for the Fred Victor Mission will be accepted - canned food, mittens. scarves, hats etc. as well as cash donations - as we remember those less for- tunate than ourselves. There will be Christmas Eve Communion at 11 p.m. an Dec. 24th when we hope to see many of our members as well as others from the community celebrate the Birth of the Christ Child as we move on to our personal Christmas festivities. We were sorry Bill Demp- sey was confined to home with a serious cold after his week of festivities surroun- ding his retirement from the North York Board of Education and hope he will be well soon.

Will by Gay Abbate If Scarborough proceeds with the widening of Ellesmere Rd. and its ex- tension to the 401, this coun- try road will become a by- pass for the 401, say area residents. About 200 residents came out to a meeting at Meadowvale Public School last Thursday night to tell city staff they want Ellesmere Rd. left as it is. Ellesmere Rd. from Scar- boro Ave. is a two-lane country road with a ditch on either side. It "dog -legs" at its terminus to link with Kingston Rd. Scarborough plans call for Ellesmere Rd. to be widen- ed to four lanes and instead of a dog -leg, it will go straight through to the 401. Kingston Rd. which presently continues to the 401 would dog -leg up to Ellesmere. If this plan is im- plemented, this part of Kingston Rd. would be given over to Scarborough in exchange for Ellesmere which would be upgraded to a major metro arterial road. In order for Ellesmere to be widened. Scarborough has to expropriate ten feet on each side of the road. While this would not entail the loss of any homes. the extension of Ellesmere to the 401 would mean the destruction of the hall own- ed by the Centennial United Church. The church building, designated a Scarborough historical landmark, would oot be affected although its manse would be brought almost to the sbwdine. Its hall, however, is about three-quarters in the path of the Ellesmere extension. Some of the seniors who attended the public meeting say the hall is their gathering place and they socialwould be lost without it, and the viability of the church staying in this location surrounded and isolated by arterial r oeds also is in question. The problem facing the residents who want to pro- tect rotext the village -like at- mosphere of their com- munity is compounded by the province, as it is look- ing at extending the collec- tor lanes of the 401 from Neilsen Rd. to White's Rd. This would mean the removal of the 401 ramp at the 401 Kingston Rd. in- tersection and relocating it further west, closer to the church. But aside from this is the possibility that the pro- vine might choose the 401 corridor for its proposed GO-ALRT line to link Pickering with Oakville. This corridor is one of three options presently under study. However, it might be the most probable route con- sidering the province already owns the property. Cost of constructing the rapid transit line would be drastically reduced without the cost of ex- propriation of land. If the 401 corridor is the selected route, plans call for a station at the 401; Meadowvale intersec- tion with a parking lot for 500 cars at the south-west corner. The residents fear this would mean the even- tual widening of Meadowvale as well as Ellesmere. The residents question the need for the Ellesmere widening and extension given that no needs study or cost analysis has been done. While city staff main- tain the project is needed to handle the extra traffic resulting from new residential developments planned for the area, the residents claim the present road network can handle it. Ward Alderman John Mackie says the area will be destroyed because peo- ple will use it to avoid con- gestion on the 401. "You can't have a village with an expressway through it," he said. Mackie urged the residents to remain united in their attempt to fight ci- ty hall. He remains op- timistic that Scarborough can be made to change its mind. But Controller Ken Mor- rish. who once represented the area, has already ad- mitted defeat on the widen- ing of Ellesmere. "It'll eventually be widened," Morrish commented in an interview. However, he sees no reason to extend Ellesmere and intends to tight this issue. Residents fear that once the road is widened to 86 ft. it will be very easy for Metro to enlarge it to 120 ft. the normal standard for major arterial roads. One resident expressed the feelings of those pre- sent at the meeting. "We didn't pay taxes all these years so we can now live on the 401," said Edward Mc- Coy who has lived on Wat- son St. for the last 18 years.

Dec. 5, -NU THE NEWSiIPOST Pape 5 Destroy Community Say Residents ".. By Josle Newman Barbara Slingsby mov- ed to the Highland Creek community 20 years ago with her family because it was 'a quiet neighborhood with lots of trees, lots of room and little traffic.' But since the City of Scarborough started widening Ellesmere Rd. last summer Slingsby's perspective on the com- munity has changed dramatically. She had to start taking sleeping pills, something Slingsby says she's never had to do before, because the Works Department had pumps going 24 hours a day just outside her house. The pumps were purifying water for storm sewers that had to be installed - part of the road widening project. They also removed two rows of trees in front of Sl- ingsby's house, between Morrish Ave. and Deep Dene Drive. Between May and August, Slingsby wrote a total of eight letters to the works department and various aldermen. She received replies to all of them, but no action. "The city engineers pro- mised us that only one row of trees needed to be removed. And then they proceeded to remove two. *They ( the City of Scar- borough) didn't consult with us at all abort this. They're ruining our com- munity and turning it into suburbia. Their attitude is act now. apologize later, said Slingsby. a mother of three. hotly in a recent ire terview. The Ellesmeredewideiting o f to four lanes and building of a more direct extension bet- ween Ellesmere and Kingston Rd. are issues which have been kicked around repeatedly since the 1950s. The city feels the upgrading will facilitate easier access for new residents moving in and br- ing more business to Scar- borough, while many Highland Creek residents feel the move will rob their community of its authen- ticity and draw business away. Slingsby isn't the only one who's angry. Ted Ralph, president of plann- ing for the Highland Creek Community Association, said most of the residents who live along the affected portion of Ellesmere Rd. are up in arms. "150 concerned people turned up at last week's community association meeting to query Mike Price, the city's director of engineering and planning. Normally, we don't even get 40. Those people were angry, and they're going to be even angrier when we GIFT OF JOY CAMPAIGN Century 21 Garry Free Ltd. in co-operation with the Salvation Army, is launching its 3rd Annual Christmas "Gift Of Joy" Campaign. Objective of the campaign is to collect gift items, such as toys and other articles, which will be distributed by the Salvation Army to less fortunate 'Kids' in the com- munity whose Christmas might be bleak without your help. To help us fill Santa's Sack bring your "Gift Of Joy" to Santa's Pickering Depot at 1398 Kingston Rd. (Across from Sheridan Mall) or phone 831-2121 or 683-2121 for pick-up. When you say, "I'll Share", you're saying, "I Care". have an open forum discus- sion with the whole works department crew this Thursday night," said Ralph in a recent inter- view. Mike Price, director of planning for the City of Scarborough Works Department, said the widening is necessary to facilitate road access for residents moving into the new subdivisions. Once the road's widened, he said, it will be maintained by the Metro Works Department, instead of Scarborough Works Department, who currently pay for maintenance. "Residents will receive a better calibre of maintenance and Scar- borough Works Depart- ment will only foot 15 per cent of the bill," he said. Price feels motorists coming off the 401 west- bound to Scarborough will more likely be travelling north for shopping or business than driving along M� Kingston Rd. And the city wants to cater to those motorists. Scarborough Controller Ken Morrish thinks the construction is un- necessary - "I've always opposed the sealing off of Kingston Rd." - but doesn't feel it will diffuse the Highland Creek communi- ty or draw business away. "if you're going to the stores in Highland Creek, you're going to be driving along Kingston Rd. anyway, not the 401. You'd have that intent in mind to begin with." The issue came to a head this summer when two developers decided to build subdivisions on two plots of land they'd purchased near Meadowvale and Ellesmere. Construction is starting this spring. The Ci- ty of Scarborough also found out that Highway 401 near Meadowvale and Ellesmere will be widened in 1987.

"Hither, page, and stand by me. If thou know'st it, telling, Yonder peasant, who is he? Where and what his dwelling?" "Sire, he lives a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence, By Saint Agnes' fountain."

When we bear them thither," Page and monarch, forth they went Forth they went together; Through the rude wind's wild la- ment And the bitter weather. "Sire, the night is darker now, And the wind blows stronger; Fails my heart. I know not how; I can go no longer." "Mark my footsteps, my good page: Tread thou in them boldly; Thou shalt find the winter's rage Freeze thy blood less coldly."

News by Carol Lee There has been tremen- dous excitement and en- thusiasm amongst the staff and students at L'Amoreaux Collegiate. L'Am is once again organizing its annual Christmas Cheer, a pro- gram which helps families with limited incomes enjoy the festive season. Donations of clothing, food, money and other necessities are asked of the staff and students in order to assemble hampers that will be delivered to various families prior to Christmas Day Events scheduled to be held to help raise money for this program include a bakesale, held on Dec. 4th and a basketball game bet- ween the Sr. Girls' Basket- ball team and our dynamic staff. Mrs. Samulewski, a history teacher, spent an enormous amount of time and effort organizing this program and she hopes we will all give generously for this worthy cause. She also organized a fund raiser for the much publicized, unfortunate citizens of Ethiopia. The final count of money donated added to an as- tounding sum of 1853.40. However. money raised for Ethiopia and Christmas Cheer are not all L'Am has to cheer about. The young Saints of our Jr. Boys' Football team succeeded in capturing the championship title in a game against Norman Bethune. The fuial score was 8-1. Our Senior Girls' Basket- ball team was almost as successful as they made it to the finals but unfor- tunately lost in an exciting game against Agincourt Collegiate. Countless other events oc- curred during the last few months, but that just about rounds off the year's ac- tivities as 1984 slowly draws to an end.

For large gatherings, offer more than one punch for variety. and definitely one without alcohol for those who prefer not to drink and drive. Punch, a name derived from the Hindi "pouch" meaning "five'• is said to have originated in 15% and consisted of five i0v Iis — spirits, citrus, spices, suer and water. Hundreds of iut- provisatiots on this foriaula have taken place over the years and it has become an instant crowd-pleaser. Today, a familiar ingre- dient in almost any holiday punch is Cranberry Cocktail. Its tangy flavor and brilliant red color make it a natural for the Christmas season. The tan -sweet taste of Cranberry Cocktail blends beautifully with almost any juice or mixer. So, if friends drop by unexpectedly and you're caught unprepared, blend it with whatever you have on hand — orange juice, popple jam, Iger ale — and you'll have a quick cup of cheer. Keep the freezer stocked with the frozen concentrated form. It's easy to store and is up to 25076 less expensive per ounce than the bottled form. A 275 mL can makes 38 oz (I.1 L).

Dec. 5, 1964 Bill Watt's Worlds ON STAGE: Among the many endear- ing joys of the Yuletide is the traditional British pan- to. How pleasant it is to report that the Royal Alex is keeping alive the tradi- tion with another presenta- tion this year. Opening a week tonight is Cinderella. It has a great cast featuring Geoff Hughes of Coronation Street as Buttons, Karen Kain in the title role, Ross Petty as Prince Charming and ... Anne Mirvish. Yes, we've heard it already .. "must be nice to be the boss' wife!". We're sure it is: Ed Mirvish is a fine man and being his closest companion must surely be "nice". But. it most certainly has nothing to do with the fact that Anne Mirvish is appearing in a featured role in one of the season's brightest at- tractions. No indeed! We recently interviewed Mrs. Mirvish in her Mir- vish Village studio and she told us tow it came about. While accompanying her husband on a business trip to England, the busy social and business whirl threw her into contact with an ac- tor who suggested her to producer Paul Elliott for the role. Now, Mrs. Mirvish is no stranger to the stage. one thing led to another and she was signed to appear. But, her husband knew nothing about it until the contract was signed! Let's get down to the nitty gritty of show business . . she is being paid by the pro- ducer, not her husband. He's merely merely! -the theatre owner. As we mentioned, Anne Mirvish is no stranger to the performing arts. For many seasons she was a featured singer withthe Chorus Emil Gartner , she has appeared with the Canadian Opera Company and she can dance! Although comfortable with all dance. we understand her particular love is flamenco. She will, of cause, sing in this production. When we asked if she will dance, she responded with "Ifthey give me dancing. I'll dance!' We have an idea though, that's it's the singing she will particularly enjoy. And. you know why The audience will be filled with children, many of them ex- periencing theatre for the fust time and, in her own wards. she will "sing to the children". We'll be at the Alec on dung nit doing our job of reviewing. We'll report dutifully on what we expect will be the lavish produc- tion; we'll retail the humour and spectacle: we'll thoroughly enjoy ourself. Much, perhaps most, of the enjoyment however will come from watching this charming and talented woman giving joy to others. "Break a leg, Mrs. M. ! " You know what we mean.

Here's a basic primer on the various kinds of trucks to be found today on the highways of North America. The illustrations are amusing without ever sacrificing accuracy and the brief narrative bridges serve admirably to carry young readers from cover to cover. Canadian is always in de- mand and here are several volumes of interest. Fit- zhenry and Whiteside has always seemed to us to be the most determinedly Canadian of the publishing houses and we offer the following in partial proof. The Growth of a Nation series offers The Depres- sion and The Mine. The former graphically and dramatically describes the great Depression and how it affected our country. One supposes some will find it depressing. Our thought however is that it's good to know it's behind us, we survived it and, God "tilling, we'll never ex- perience another. The lat- ter describes mining in Canada as it was and as it is. ICs not pretty but there is a certain inspirational quality about it that one can find invigorating. Both volumes are profuse- ly illustrated and well writ- ten. Here's another from The Canadians series. This latest is about John Mc- Crae, the Canadian military doctor who wrote In Flanders Fields. If he had done nothing else in his life it would have still been full measure. He was however, a man of many accomplishments and they are described in this short, fully illustrated soft cover. We wept as we recalled the window in the medical school of McGill that com- memorates Join McCrae with these words . . Pathologist, Poet, Physi- cian. Man Among Men. Among Friends (Double- day) is L.R. Wright's at- tempt to be another Mary McCarthy. The Vancouver journalist doesn't quite make it but the book is a pleasant enough ex- perence. It's the story of three women, without men, com- ing to grips with themselves and with the world. We use the word "grips" rather than ..terms.. because we found the boot indeterminate. Still, we insist it's not bad. It's set in Calgary and the local colour is reasonably good. One might quibble that everyone doesn't eat beef dip there but then everyone doesn't eat quiche in Toronto. Pirates & Outlaws of Canada. 1610-1932 (Double- day, ampersand inten- tional! ) is not a history of the men who have held political office in Canada. It's an interesting and some times amusing history of some of the more colourful men who have figured to great or lesser degree in the development of the country. Try the chapter on Simon Girty. And, we can't leave the book without commenting again on how much Etienne Bruld looked like Pierre Ttudeau. A literally beautiful book is The Horses of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police - A Pictorial History. Writ- ten by William and Nora Kelly it details con- siderably more than the history of the horses used with such distinction by the force. It tells much about the force itself. It remains though, that the horses are the chief allure of this Doubleday volume.

At one time only those with a high income could afford a cruise. But today for anwunts varying from around $1000 up to $1500 per it is possible to en - person y a beautiful week in the SM. Most cruises offer stops at various islands where a day tour of that island gives a variety of travel. In this way you can visit a number of islands while en- joying the cruise as well - all at the same basic price. I've been on three cruises and each one was different from the previous one. What people are on board makes each one different and also which islands you visit varies the whole trip. And the food! Well, it is difficult to describe the quality and quantity of food on a cruise. There is breakfast, mid-morning tea, lunch, mid-afternoon snack, dinner and midnight snacks! It is decadent - but very enjoyable! Of course, one has to exercise con- stantly on deck, or the pounds will add up quickly to your body. I found by walking around the deck about 20 times after each meal at least kept the weight increase down to around five pounds. But without exer- cise and you can add 15 tbs. easily! On ship drinks are away from greeding govern- ments grabbing for taxes, so the price is right. Gambling is popular on most ships with a small room equipped with slot machines etc. Don't worry about your cabin and whether it is big or not because you won't need this room except to shower, change clothes and sleep. It is on deck where you can he in the sun and watch small islands go by. It is very relaxing. THE CRUISE PEOPLE LTD.

The gift certificates will be presented in an attractive envelope and will be honoured as payment of tickets. Wad. Dat.,, t$A4 Tf* NBWBVW Paas I 1 The Riddle of the Non -Traveller One of the most puzzling sets of figures with which tourism of- ficials and members of the hospitality industry are grappling has to do with those who never take a vacation. For the travel industry, these non - travellers represent an untapped potential that is enormous in terms of tourist volume. In total, no less than 46 percent of our population never takes annual vacation trips. Canada is not alone in having a sizeable part of the population which doesn't travel. In the United States, more than 36 percent of the people do not take any form of vacation trip. When you reflect on the possibility of coaxing just half these non -travellers to take even a modest trip, you begin to ace another massive bonanza for Canadian tourism — and for these non -vacationers too. What to do about the Travel Canada Rupert Tingley legion of people who don't take a vacation? Not too much, but with research and a closer study of this intriguing group, tourism officials are starting to unlock the secrets that will someday expand Canada's industry. In fact, they're now questioning whether the definitions reflect current practices. Generally, estimates of domestic tourism spend- ing have been limited only to people who travel 100 miles or more from home. In the U.S., which accounts for about one- fourth of the world's spending for domestic and international tourism, this means a failure to count about 38 percent of total spending that takes place on domestic trips of 25 to 100 miles from home. Samuel Johnson once observed, "It is one of the maxims of civil law, that definitions are hazard- ous." The 100 -mile definition has indeed been "hazardous." It may have blinded the tourism industry to the fact that tourism is the largest industry in America and in the world. Rupert Tingley is chairman of the Tourism Industry Association of Canada and president of CN Marine. Women In Travel Help Sherpas The Ontario Executive Women in Travel are holding a dinner on Wed.

City Property Vandalism Costs Taxpayers by Gay Abbate Damage to city property continues to cost Scar- borough taxpayers thousands of dollars year- ly. Although politicians continue to talk about it every time new statistics are presented, there would appear to be very little they can do. To date this year, theft of public or private property on city property has cost Scarborough $7,110.55. The thefts usually take place at community centres. In the last three months, over $900 in cash has been stolen. Other items taken include a camera, three bikes, two lawnmowers and a flag. The real shocker comes in the cost of vandalism. For the first nine months of 1984, the total cost of van- dalism to city property amounted to $64,364.99. This figure is up con- siderably from that for the same period last year - $23,061.14. However, the Civic Centre. It is in bright green with lively, red col- oured holiday drawings by teenage artist, Ruey Among the many attrac- tions are performances by the Toronto Symphony 1983 figure did not include the cost of vandalism to bus shelters. For the period of July 1 to Sept. 30, there were 118 in- cidents of vandalism to bus shelters in Total damage wass $6 WOE. As usual, broken windows acc•ourit for a large percen- tage of the vandalism. Damage to pool fences was quite extensive this sum- mer. There were seven separate incidents of pool fences being cut. It is not just material ob- jects that vandals go after. The greatest damage was done to 17 spruce trees in the Jack Goodlad Park which had the main leader cut off. Cast of this damage came to $2250. The recovery rate for van- dalism is very poor. In only four cases were the guilty parties apprehended and full restitution made. Vandalism for the July i to Sept. 30 period totalled $11,765.85.

Look Out For Turtles With Salmonella by Gay Abbate Public health officials are asking anyone who bought a red -eared slider turtle after Oct. 1 to return the animal or dispose of it at once. The turtles, some 10.000 of which were shipped from Montreal into the Metro area since Oct. 1, have been found to be carrying salmonella, a bacteria which has already put three Etobicoke youngsters in the hospital. The turtles, which are notorious for carrying "Christmas Around The World" was celebrated last Sunday at the North York City Hall and many ethnic groups presented crafts, food and dances for a very receptive audience.

Dae. 5,19U P� I New Program For Senior Citizens By JOSIE NEWMAN When Pauline Hare of Oshawa retired from her bookeeping job at an in- surance company three years ago, she didn't know how to occupy all her wak- ing hours. There was the square dancing group, the senior citizens' centre, swimming once a week and her hobbies, such as piano - playing and knitting, but somehow they weren't quite enough. 'I needed something to stimulate my intellect, to really get me going. I'd worked all my life, mainly in the Oshawa Public I.Abrary, and was used to being in the middle of lots of activity and lots of peo- ple," said the 58 -year-old Oshawa resident with a lively spark in her voice. One day last spring at the Oshawa Senior Citizens' Centre, Pauline heard about a special new educa- tion program offered by the Durham Board of Educa- tion to senior citizens, whereby they can take high school courses and receive credits. So she signed up. "My life has seemed a lot richer and more fun since I started taking classes. It's great. I thoroughly love it," said Hare. The program, which started in September. 1983. is taught by Dwight Esler, history bead at Oshawa's Central Collegiate In- stitute. Classes are taught at the John St. seniors' cen- tre. which is located two blocks west of the school. Enrollment is good - about 25 students per class. So far, only one class is of- fered each semester. Each course involves three after- noons - or six hays - in the classroom per week, phis homework. The courses to date have all been history. because the board thought that would be the subject most likely to appeal to seniors. Pauline says the class has given her a focal point and made her life seem as full as it used to when she was working. ,It's not just good men- tally. but socially. too. My classmates and I are all very close: we spend a lot of time together outside school too. -And when I saw the course they were offering — Canadian history — well, I just grabbed the oppor- tunity. I was raised and schooled in Britian, so I like to learn everything I can about Canada," said Hare. made shortbread cookies, That attitude seems wore kilts, and played Scot - prevalent amongst tish music among other Pauline's classmates. things.

And, says Esler, their age and varied personal ex- periences makes them natural historians. He describes the seniors course as the "highlight of my week." "It's very rewarding teaching these people because they really want to learn and, at their age. aren't afraid of a little live- ly debating. And they're well-prepared for each class," Esler said in an in- terview. He related an incident which best illustrated his students' dedication. One student of Scottish descent, who prefers to remain un- named, presented a seminar about Scottish culture and did such an authentic job that, accor- ding to Esler, the rest of the class felt they actually were in Scotland. "It was incredible. They hired highland dancers. Harry Thomson, prin- cipal of Central Collegiate, said the program was started as part of a drive to boost the school's flagging enrollment. Students new to Oshawa generally move to subdivisions on the out- skirts of town and attend suburban schools rather than older downtown schools, such as Central. But it was also started to revive community spirit in Oshawa. He heard of a similar program sponsored by a Belleville school and, because of the close prox- imity of the Oshawa Senior Citizens' Centre, to Cen- tral, thought the concept would work well in Oshawa. "And boy, did it ever. The seniors, staff at the centre. staff here and even our younger students love it. And it boosts Oshawa spirit tremendously.- said He conceded that he wasn't sure how well the younger and older students would react to one another at first, but after their first outing together, had no doubts. `They went to the Royal Ontario Museum and got along marvellously. The bus ride was silent at fust, seniors sitting at the front and the younger folk at the back. And theft a senior broke the ice by throwing a paper airplane at the teenagers. From that mo- ment on, the two groups socialized and had a fine time,"laughed Thomson. Ellen Oliver, program assistant for creative arts and continuing education, said the mood around the centre has become more buoyant since the carnes started. "Students regale me with tales of their class. I think the program's fantastic, and very unique. There are lots of continuing education programs available for seniors, but none like this, where they can gain credits for their effort. "I've worked with seniors for years and heard of many concepts to help stimulate them, but this is the best I've ever seen,.. she said Rental Accommodation In Demand In its housing market report Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation reports that October was a very active month for new housing in Durham, as builders rushed to start and enclose homes prior to winter freeze-up at the same time as others were finalized in time for month- end closings. The report shows that 272 hewing starts were record- ed across tate region of Durham compared with the completion of 397 dwell- ings. A usual. single detached dwellings figured pro- minently in these statistics accounting for over 90% of the starts and two-thirds of the completions. Included among the com- pktbons were portions of two large ti'HA rental pro - )gets in Whitby - the 80 row unit Pringle Creek Co-op and a 124 unit building designed for seniors.

Due to the presentee of persistent and increasing demand for rental accom- modation throughout Durham, combined with few rental completions, declining or continuing low vacancy rates were observ- ed in all surveyed areas.

MPP Durham West ... ..................... COMPUTERS AND CHILDREN On November 21, 1984, the Ministry of Citizenship and Culture announced the Computers and Children program - a new, $4 million Ontario Government program. Computers and Children will ensure that the children of this province will have equal and adequate access to com- puters and related information technologies. Approximately 4,000 microcomputers will be placed in communities across the Province, under the new program funded by BILD, and administered through the Ministry of Citizenship and Culture. Existing, non-profit community organizations, such as libraries, museums, art galleries, and native multicultural and service groups, will house the computer centres. Up to 15 computers, colour monitors, and software packages, will be placed in each centre, using hardware from Apple, IBM, Commodore, Acorn and Atari. At least 2 hours of free time to students from kindergarten to grade 8, outside their regular school hours will be provided, with re- maining time being available to the entire community at a minimal user fee. The Minister of Citizenship and Culture indicated that, "the key to success of Computers and Children is partner- ship. Ministry -trained coordinators will wort with volunteer assistants to ensure that the program meets the unique needs of each community. and private sector fund- raising will occur to finance each centre's ongoing opera- tions. The result of these partnerships will be entirely self- sufficient centres integrally involved in the development of their communities." In addition to assisting young people prepare for future employment. the Computers and Children program will also provide incentives for Canadian software and hard- ware ardware development. Other benefits expected from this in- novative program include the opportunities for parents to learn this new technology with their children, and improved language instruction for newcomer. This program will complement initiatives existing in the school system throughout the province. The new facilities will be located primarily to reach less advantaged yotutg people who would not otherwise have access to this equip- ment outside the academic setting. Computers and Children is further evidence of the Ontario Government's commitment to providing Ontarians with the opportunities to keep pace with rapidly drvelopiig technology. Nutrition Now By JOAN FIELDEN Stuffing? Dressing? The pages of food history tell us that there's more to a stuff- ing or dressing. however you want to call it, than bread. rice, meat, fruit and herbs. Your stuffing recipes are your savoury inheritance from the good cooks of hundreds of years ago. While that plump chicken or turkey waits to be filled with the family's favour- ite dressing, take a look into the stuffings of years gone by. Whether you grew up in the eastern or western Canada. you must feel a sweet nostal- gia for those days when the family gathered in the warm kitchen to help with the pre- paration of stuffing. There was that huge wooden chop- ping bowl, into which the bread was crumbleu and the other ingredients tossed. And there was the kitchen stool on which you may have perched, to sort and clean the raisins or merely sniff from the box of assorted poultry seasonings. Little did you real- ize that there in the stuffing bowl was a food flavoured with traditional and steeped in old world history! Stuffings were first men- tioned in 16th to 18th century European history, with the preparation of the Christmas goose. Just as the hog is the symbol of prosperity in many a Canadian farm home today, t he goose, to the ancient Euro peal, family, was the mat and the :At as well as the fathers to fill the mattresses for winter beds. Thus geese and other poultry were the delicacies served at their holldav feasts and religious observances. Wheat. a precious and scarce grain in those days, was con- sidered such a luxury that it was served as bread stuffing in the holiday birds. As history shifted across the Atlantic to the New World, stuffings, and dressings which they were now more frequent- ly called. quickly took on local colour. If tints were boun- tiful. New Englanders added oysters to their bread stuff- ings. Loyalists in the Atlantic regions of Canada blended big fat chestnuts with the fluffy bread pieces. The Pennsyl- vania Dutch newcomers into what is now Ontario clung to the traditional goose for holi- day fare. and sometimes filled it with a combination of bread, apples and sausages. But the old-fashioned bread stuffing remained the popular choice, with chopped celery, onion and any number of other ingredients added for texture and flavour. Today, as you fondly toss the bits of day-old white or whole grain bread with chop- ped celery, diced onion, cubes of raw apple, plump raisins, melted butter and your own secret combination of spices and herbs. think kindly of your ancestors who originated this popular kitchen custom.
