A.These are imaginary people described in the second cen- tury Greek author Lucian of Samosta's True History. While they look like regular human beings, their feet are made of cork. This unique feature allows the Corkfoots to walk on water. This is handy since the city in which they live, Cork, is built on a large piece of cork, permitting the city to float in the Atlantic Ocean. Q. My grandfather used to talk about skunk bears. What are they? K. H. A. A skunk bear is also known as a mountain devil, but we commonly refer to them as wolverines. It is a clever fierce predator which is said to have the "strength of a bear". It also has a horrible smelling musk. When sprayed, it is not unlike the odor of a skunk's spray. Hence, the wolverine won the nickname of skunk bear. Q. From a weather class I took years ago, I remember that there are four basic clouds but I don't recall their names. What are they? S. M. A. The four basic clouds are cumulus, stratus, cirrus, and nimbus. Cumulus are the cotton -like clouds which have a flat bottom and a dome-shaped top. Stratus are the low ly- ing clouds which look like high fog. The wispy, high clouds are cirrus. Nimbus clouds are dark and rain -bearing. These four basic clouds can be combined in various ways to create ten main types of clouds. ed that regular school bus transportation not be pro- vided from Rossland West Winds subdivisions, Oshawa, to Adelaide McLaughlin PS.

Feb. a. 1981 Opinion a page for expression for you and us How Ridiculous! by Kt►h %%a (son Sometimes one wonders if the people in our various government levels have nothing tetter to do than "nit pick". The latest is a report from a committee called the Advisory Committee On Race Relations. its recommenda- tions are absolutely ridiculous and if implemented by the Ontario government will he another nail in the coffin of our depressed educational system. How the government at Queen's Park can even con- template the spending of more money on education for so- called "racism" when the change to a full Roman Catholic school system with all of its relocation of students requires- great equiresgreat amounts of capital money to cam, the program out baffles us' St► the committee's recommendations include putting '.ethnic content in all aspects of the curriculum". Well. we never found anything less than "ethnic" when we went to school - or is mentioning the word "Canadian" or "British" supposed to be racism" Then we are supposed to weed out books with pictures that portray only white character. Well, we imagine the father of confederation will have to go - and are we to paint the• face of one of our prime ministers of the past black in order to show youngsters today that their skin is OK' This wtx►Ie exercise is ridiculous. Canada's history is Canada's history and we can't change it. And to have a new policy that we deliberately hire teachers with visible skin dif- ferences instead of who is available and competent is a racist policy in itself. We believe that committeY•s like this one only aggravate the variety of our population. which is living in reasonable harmony considering the many groups we have. If we muni change anything, let's change the school trustees and or in racial government that puts stxh a fu►licy into four. Supports Lower Design Dear Sir.

When 10 co-operative education students from Florida step off a plane at Pearson International Air- port this February, not on- ly will many experience winter for the first time, they'll all be making education history. Although there are many exchanges held for students and teachers, this will be the first North American exchange of co- operative education students, says organizer Linda Winder, of the Scar- borough Board of Educa- tion's co-operative educa- tion division, Program Department. The students from Marion County will spend the week "shadowing" Scarborough students in co-operative education jobs, all -the -while learning about Canada. The group %%ill take part in visits to \letro Toronto landmarks .ind will even learn to ski and snowshoe. Scarborough students fly to Florida at the end of March to follow their Marion County counter- parts at their jobs. Scarborough was chosen to twin co-operative educa- tion programs with the Florida school system because the cultural dif- ferences will "provide a real learning experience." The Scarborough board's co-operative education pro- gram is considered an in- novative forerunner in Canada with 2,500 students enrolled in academic, technical and business pro- grams. It is also the largest in the nation. Students will stay in the homes of their hosts and pay for their air fare and meals. The Florida students will spend Feb. 20 to Mar 1 in Scarborough and Scar- borough students will stay in Marion County from Mar. 27 to Apr. 6. Barbaro Quits The Zoo n� Gay Abbate ! iter ten years. Ron Bar - the man whose name become almost nonomous with the Metro /,.,. has called it quits. Last week, Barbaro, $4, announced that he was resigning as a member of the Zoo's board of directors because of the pressures of his full-time position as president of Prudential In- surance. The zoo job was voluntary and paid no salary. For nine of those ten years Barbaro was chair- man of the board of duvc- tors and for the past three years has also served as the zoo's general manager. Harbaro's tenure was not without criticism. Scar- borough Controller Joyce Trimmer was one of his fiercest opponents and it was her continual vigilance as a watchdog of Barbaro's operations which, in part, led Metro Counci! to under- take an extensive manage- ment review of the Zoo. The study by Dale Rich- mond, Metro's chief ad- ministrative officer, con- cluded that there were serious morale problems among zoo staff. This study led to Metro appointing Calvin White, a budget director for Metro, as the Zoo's general manager. Barbaro did not replace the last general manager ,'herr he departed but took the duties himself. Despite the harsh criticism of Barbaro's style• he leaves Metro residents with a significant legacy. He was the one who brought the pandas and consequently thousands of new visitors to the Metro zoo. He was also one who took a tired, poor attendance plagued zoo and turned it into one of the world's top five zoos. Bob's Notes Challenge '87 Summer Job Program The federal government is encouraging business people, non-profit organizations and students to become involved in Challenge '87. "Nearly $200 million has been allotted for Challenge 'S;, and I look forward to working with Scar- borough Centre businesses in making this a successful and productive summer job season," says Pauline Brower, M.P. Scarborough Centre. Challenge '87 challenges employer from all sectors of the economy to create summer jobs for students. It also challenges students themselves to use their entrepreneurial skills to create jobs. Last summer 27 Scarborough Centre businesses took advantage of the program to hire nearly 60 students. Under the Summer Employment Experience Develop- ment (SEED) program, private sector companies can receive up to 50% in wage subsidies for hiring students in career related or practical work experience summer jobs. Wage subsidies are also granted under the Work Orienta- tion Workshops ( WOW) program. Applications for Challenge'137 will be available by the end of this month.

Fencott, retired co-ordinator of mathematics for the Scar- borough Board of Educa- tion and an award-winning mathematician, died of a heart attack on Jan. 22 at North York General Hospital. He was 66. Mr. Fencott, who was co- ordinator for 13 years until his retirement in June, 1985, joined the board in 1961 as a teacher at R. H. King Collegiate. He was promoted to head of mathematics in 1963 and he also was mathematics bead at Stephen Leacock Collegiate. Paul Zolis, who succeed- ed Mr. Fencott as co- ordinator of mathematics, says, "Jim was extremely well-respected by all his colleagues in the province and by math teachers who worked with him across Canada, as well as in Scar- borough " Mr. Fencott received the prestigious Gold Medalist Descartes Award from the University of Waterloo in the late seventies for his great contribution to mathematics education. Author of numerous math texts for grades 7 through 12, he was a member of the Ontario Association for Mathematics Educators and the National Council for Teachers of Mathematics. Though he retired from the Scarborough Board, he continued to be active in his field. During 1985-86 he spent a year in Gambia in- structing mathemtaics teachers through the Ottawa -based Canadian organization for Develop- ment through Education (CODE) . Upon his return to Canada he did consulting work for the Ministry of Education. He recently completed an Ontario Assessment Instrument Pool (OAIP) project, of which he was in charge, concerning marking the field testing of marking in- struments. Together with Ousman MDow, president of the Gambia Teachers' Union, Wid CODE, this past fall he withng pro - 10 Scarborough Wliools Tchools and 10 Gambian pchools. Greatly concerned about the dearth of instruc- tional materials and sup- plies in Gambian schools, he arranged for Scar- borough students to become pen friends with Gambian students and raise funds to allow them to buy supplies. And he ar- ranged for about 63 boxes -of used math texts from Scarborough to be sent to Gambia. "Jim went the extra mile for students," says Cam Cowan, director of educa- tion. "He had a genuine in- terest in students at all levels, from remedial to gifted, and went to great lengths to help them, work- ing long hours before and after school. He was also an outstanding, award- winning mathematician. It's a great loss." Born in Burma he served in the Burmese military during World War II, and he also served in the Bur- ma Civil Service from 1945 to 1948. He began his teaching career in 1952 in London, England, and four years later emigrated to Canada" He taught at Uxbridge High School for five years before joining the Scar- borough Board. He leaves his wife, Edith; daughters Jean, Betty, Marian and Veronica, sons Robert, Peter, Anthony and Patrick; grandchildren, Sean, Valerie, Douglas, Trevor, Kevin, David, Dan- ny, Erin and Jennifer. A funeral service was held at St. Batholomew's Roman Catholic Church, Sheppard Ave. E. and Brimley Rd. Donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

At one of the intermis- sions we heard a man com- menting loudly enough to be heard that he "rather much preferred the recor- ding by Leonard Warren". What specious nonsense' We know the recording to which he was referring. It's RCA AVM 2-0698 and it also features Erna Berger and Jan Peerce. It's a fine recording and worthy of in- clusion in anvone's collec- tion but to compare It or any recording to a live per. formance is stupid at best and insulting at worst. This C 0 C prmiuction JZ-- needs no comparison. it stands by itself and, in the main, stands well. Rigoletto is an old war horse that no one takes serious)} am more if, in- deed, ii was ever taken seriously but it is one of the world's finest because of the well nigh incomparable music of Verdi. Even at that, this is not his finest score but the overall musical content serves as a mouthwateriAg cake upon which to place the frosting of the three best known compositions. Caro nome. La donna a mobile and the marvellous quartet. John Rawnsley makes his COC debut in the title role and an auspicious debut it is. It's a plummy role and some are rather much prorw to overplay it Mr. Rawnsley, however. delivers a nicely understated declamation of the reasons for his evil nature. He allows full passion to flow only in the love he has for his daughter and in his desire to keep her from the decadence of the world that he knows so well. The con- trast between the dark jester and the loving father has great impact on the au- dience. His baritone voice is rich and full and yet, even here. one semses a rest ra int . not just that of the interpreta- tion of the role but of the voice as well. Mr. Rawnsley has gained inter- national acclaim for his performance of Rigoletto ContMand on Page 10 12 Year Old Makes Stage Debut Twelve-year old Jason Nicolaidis of Agincourt will appear in "The Music Man" at the Limelight Theatre when it officially opens on Feb. 5.

A. 1987, Speaking To You Scott Fennel! M.P. Ontario Riding On Dec. 30, 1986. Canada and the United States signed a Memorandum of Understanding which resolves the dif- ferences with respect to the conditions affecting trade in softwood lumber products. I am very supportive of the pro- visions in the agreement, and am pleased that the Minister for International Trade, the Hon. Pat Carney• was able to take such a positive step. Much rhetoric has appeared in the media lately which I feel has misled Canadians on this issue, and I would like to explain the details of the agreement. The negotiations have 'been a long and difficult process. one where the choices have been complex and harsh. The Government's intention in this process was to ensure that the best deal was made for Canada: maintaining Canada's sovereignty, revenue from am• taxes remain in Canada and ensuring that jobs would not be lost in the forestry industry. The proposal satisfies a number of key objectives agreed to by the Prime :Minister and nine of the premiers at the November First '.Ministers' Conference in Vancouver. The objectives are as follows: 1 i the provinces retain their flex- ibility in determining the stumpage pricing, 2) a dangerous development in U.S. countervailing policy has been avoided by the withdrawal of the petition, and 31 the ability of the provinces to determine their own natural resource manage- ment policies remains in - This book is dbout making tact. money, very large sums of As a result of this agret•- morley, and making it in a men[, the U.S. lumier very short period of time coalition is withdrawing the petition that led to the THE GREATEST preliminary countervailing MONEY BOOK decision.

However. ►•-• 1... given the strong protec- tionist moott in the U.S. Centennial Roug by Julie Webb "Does anyone know what a bully is?" With this ques- tion addressed to the children, Rev. Sanguin took us all back to our childhood memories. He then suggested that bullies were not just kids in the schoolyard, but that bully- ing goes on all over. Na- tions can be bullies, and so can governments. God does not like this. We then took a scriptural look at the Beatitudes, ( oyer All.) protect ionist •Bi I Is are before Congress at pre- sent 1. and the clear message from the U.S. that Congress would change the rule, with even more punilive effects.

Where is that earth that the meek shall inherit, in a world full of bullies? As St. Paul states, "For the Word of the Cross is folly to those who are perishing."

What an evening that will be. At the performance we attended Tonio Di Paolo sang the role of the Duke of Mantua. He plays it and sing -s it well but one has to feel sympathy for anyone saddled with the role. In- dividual songs and recitatives are impressive but when a tenor is placed in the company of hantones and basses his contribution always seems diminished. Of course, we are talking about lyric rather than helden tenors. Giving credit where credit is due however, Mr. Di Paolo more than holds his own in the famous quartet. As Gilda, Costanza Cuc- caro is sweet and demure and even succeeds in mak- ing one believe that the Duke might be willing to mend his ways in the name of love for the sweetling. Still, one could wish for just a little more fire to justify her love for the Duke and her willingness to die for him.

It stars Kiefer Sutherland, son of Donald Sutherland and although we had to miss a preview perfor- mance we understand that he dot's quite nicely with the i ;,ie assigned to him.

Ed Fulton: Minister d Ttmspottation VW ct mmili Ncsom MPP Scarborough East The Ontario Government will spend more than Slat million over the next 15 months to curb violence in amateur sports, with an emphasis on hockey violence. Tourism and Recreation Minister John Eakins said his ministry will use the funds to improve referee training development pro- grams. to promote better injury care and to help provide arenas with breakaway hockey safety nets. "As safety standards are developed, grants from m ministry will be contingent on these standards being met . ­ said said Mr. Eakins. "Where there is no safety component. there will be no grant." Mr. Eakins will also be introducing amendments to the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation Act that will allow him to withhold grants from amateur leagues that do not introduce measures to reduce violence on the ice. While it's encouraging that more people in Ontario are partkipating in sports, athletic activities account for over half of all serious injuries, according to the McMaster School Injuries Study for the Ministry of Education. As well, there has been an alarming increase in spinal card in- juries related to hockey. Between 1966 and 1985 there were 38 serious spinal injuries reported in Canada, 44 in Ontario. The Canadian Paraplegic Association estimates that lifetime care for paraplegics is approximately $l million per person - Mr. Eakins told members of the legislature, "It is my view - and the view of this government - that violence in sports and preventable injury in sports and fitness cannot be tolerated." Concern for safety also extends to the fitness industry. Safety measures have not kept pace with the bourn in fitness organizations. Mr. Eakins said his ministry will work with the industry to help them establish safety standards for operations, maintenance and equipment, and standards for the training and job qualifications of profes- sional fitness employees. "Participation in amateur sports and fitness by On- tarians is increasing rapidly," said Mr. Eakins. "My aim is to make sure that the enthusiasm continues with safety and injury prevention a top priority." SMOKING BAN FOR HEALTH MINISTRY In conjunction with National Non -Smoking Week• which starts on Thursday, January 15 and ends with Weedless Wednesday, January 21, Health Minister Murray Elston has announced that the Ontario Ministry of Health will adopt a smokefree policy in its offices and buildings. The program is called Project Smokefree and will be phased in starting March 1 of this year. Under this program smoking will be permitted in designated areas only in the ministry's 70 offices and buildings across the province. 12,000 employees of the Health Ministry will be affected. Mr. Elston said the theme of national non-smoking week is that second-hand smoke hurts, and its focus is on control of smoke in the workplace. "The evidence is well documented that smoking represents a major health hazard to smokers and non-smokers alike." OTTAWA MAKES BAD BANKING DECISION Premier David Peterson has called on the federal govern- ment to include Toronto as a centre for international tax- free banking, along with Montreal and Vancouver. Premier Peterson said the Mulroney government is guil- ty of the "crassest, worst kind of political motivation that should not be unpunished," by Ontario voters. He said the proposal "shows incredible lack of judgement•" and "one can only assume that there's some political consideration." Premier Peterson vowed to join forces with Toronto Mayor Art Eggleton and the financial community to try and change the decision or neutralize it.

Phm., Past President, Ontario College of Pharmacists Community Pharmacist, Shoppers Drug Mart AN INFLAMMED CONDITION 2 In our last column, we looked at the history of ar- thritis and the extent of the disease in Canada. This time, we will explore where and how arthritis can strike. Most arthritis and arthritis -related problems affect the body's joints, the point at which two bones meet. Joints are supported by muscles and tendons which permit movement up, down and sideways, while providing protection against stress and possible injury. There are more than 100 joints in the body and you can get arthritis in any of them, though the ones most often associated with the disease are located in the hands, wrists, feet, knees, hips and upper and lower spine. Inflammation of a joint is the body's protective reac- tion to any foreign body not natural to the joint and also to tissue damage from a variety of causes. It's nature's way of eliminating the foreign body and damaged tissue, so that repair may be effected. The foreign element causing the body's defense system to activate is called an antigen. The body's defense system automatically turns on a protection cycle that helps fight off most diseases naturally. The primary defenders in the body's defense system contain powerful enzyme detergents which attack antigens and break up and digest them. In cer- tain forms of arthritis, the defenders that come into contact with the antigens behave unusually, attack - Continued on Page 13 Diamonds & Tuxedos: A Perfect Pair There are certain perfect pairs in the world, com- binations that fit together as easily as the proverbial hand in a glove. When we think of perfect fits (and elegant ones at that) we think of couples like Hep- burn and Tracy, Gable and Lombard and Astaire and Rogers. A fashionable, -perfect fit for men today is the classic combination of formal wear and diamond accessories. Brilliant diamonds are the ideal ac- cent to black -tie dressing, which has never been more popular as men of all ages now enjoy its luxe riots sophistication. The tuxedo is experience a resurgence in popularity particularly appropriate in its centen- nial year. The tuxedo has remained virtually unchanged since Griswold Lorillard in- troduced it in Tuxedo Park, New York, too years ago. The basic black trousers and dinner jacket, minus the tails, will forever be a classic, and, of course, the last word in elegance. To- day, men take their war- drobes just as seriously as Mr. Lorillard did and they have corse a long way in 100 years. Uniformity and cookie -cutter images say the wrong thing about a man. He needs to have a style that is his own, a look that says he is a cut above the rest. Brightly-colouired cummerbunds and bow - ties are one way men can add a more distinctive look to their tuxedos• but dia- mond accessories are un- questionably the most elegant way.

On Jan. 5th the board of directors of Arts Scar- borough hired Lynne Atkin- son as their new executive director and appointed Kris Magidsohn to the posi- tion of program co- ordinator. Lynne Atkinson comes to Arts Scarborough with a wealth of practical ex- perience as both an artist and an administrator. She is a graphic artist and screen printer who, in 1985, won the Children's Choice Award for her illustrations in the children's book, -I Belong To Me", published by Whortleberry Books. Lynne's most recent position was at Expo '86, where she spent a year building a regional enter- tainment program for the B.C. Pavilion which featured 250 performers from around the province. At the Expo site the pro- gram provided visitors with theme related, original material and serv- ed as a tourism vehicle, en- ticing people into the in- terior of British Columbia. Previous to that, Lynne worked as the Executive Director of "The Com- munity Skills Gallery" in Kelowna, B.C. where she helped to transform an old fruit packing warehouse in- to a thriving centre for the arts. As executive director for Arts Scarborough, Lynne will be responsible for the administration of the office as well as working to im- prove Arts Scarborough's services to its members and the community. Kris Magidsohn has worked for Arts Scar- borough, on two different grant programs, for the past 18 months. She has proved to be invaluable, particularly in the areas of membership development and project management. As program co- ordinator, Kris will become a permanent member of the Arts Scarborough staff and will take on a strong role in organizing arts and crafts shows and special events. Karin Eaton, President of Arts Scarborough, reported that she is "ab- soloutely delighted with the dynamic team of Lynne Atkinson and Kris Magid- sohn in the office." She said that "apart from her ex- cellent organizational skills, Lynne also has a uni- que level of creative energy which, combined with Kris' excellent ex- perience, will create a powerful force for Arts Scarborough." .0 .0 Business Community News] Caribbean Trade Forum Feb. 12th The City of North York's Department of Economic Development is sponsoring a Caribbean Trade Forum on Thurs.

The whales, dolphins and trainers in Sea World's latest presen- tation, "New Friends" fit that definition perfectly. In the newly refurbished Whale and Dolphin Stadium. beluga whales. Pacific black whales. Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, Pacific white - sided dolphins and humans perform in the same stow for the first time anywhere. The 30 -minute presenta- tion showcases individual talents and unique behaviours of these four toothed whales while educating guests about their diets and social habits. For instance- they learn that Atlantic bot- tlenose and Pacific white - sided dolphins are actually whales. Sea World Director of Animal Behaviour Dan Blasko says each species has special capabilities and all seem to enjoy their new home, expressing that pleasure and investigating their new surroundings by spinning, leaping, skipping and cavorting through the water. Pacific black whales tPseudorea crassidensr have been observed in the wild leaping as high as 15 feet, apparently for the sheer joy of it. Their bullet- shaped bodies allow them to swim at high speeds to pursue their prey. Like killer whales, they feed on a variety of fish and other marine mammals. On the other hand, beluga whales tDelphinapterus leucasi are gentle "white whales" which may be found in groups of up to LOW sear- ching for food around the mouths of rivers. In areas around Alaska and Hudson Bay. belugas often com- pete with fishermen for salmon, herring and smelt. They have been nicknamed "sea canaries" because they produce a complex variety of sounds, including whistles, trills and chirps. These sounds enable the beluga to navigate and find food in the dark or murky water. It also is speculated beluga-, can stun prey with interne bursts of these sounds. The most recognizable member of the "New Friends" cast is the Atlan- tic bottlenose dolphin l Tur- sieps truncatus I . Park guests may feed and touch these playful gray animals at the recently expanded Dolptun Feeding Pool. The fourth species, the Pacific white -sided dolphin l Lagenorhynchus obli- quidernr, is among the most beautiful of dolphins, with distinctive gray, white and black markings and a sleek. compact body. The "New Friends" cast will be the subject of conti- nuing study and observa- tion by Sea World animal six years, has now realized her personal dream.

By George Ashe, MPP Durham West I:• ...............: ti:............................. INSURANCE CRISIS CRIPPLES SMALL BUSINESS There is a crisis in almost every area of the insurance in- dustry and it is Ontario's small business sector that is being crushed. It seems that the insurance industry arbitrarily sets rates, declines quotes and walks away from good clients. According to Garth Turner, Business Editor of the Toronto Sun, "something is rotten in Ontario". Drastic increases in insurance rates and the industry's sudden reluctance to take on new risks - particularly in liability coverage - has led to a daily string of headlines. In- creases in the cost of liability coverage have run as high as 700 percent putting some small companies in the dilemma of having to reduce their work force. operate without ade- quate liability protection or close shop. The situation is bad in Ontario. Almost 80 percent of the small businesses polled here reported premium increases. Among 10.390 companies surveyed across Canada• seven in ten said premiums had climbed by more than 10 percent, and a quarter had hikes of more than 50 percent. The crisis in liability insurance became most evident when large com- panies renewed policies late in 1985. But coverage had been increasingly difficult to find even before this date and 1966 was no better. -A survey conducted by the Canadian Organisation of Small Busine.-,% revealed 35 percent of its members reported major restrictions on coverage and or major costs increases in renewing liability insurance. Another 8 percent were refused coverage altogether. However. as tough as the situation may be. 94 percent of the members opposed any government action to take over the insurance industry. The group is urging greater in- dustry self-regulation to promote improved consumer awareness, and the creation of a consumer complaints om- budsman. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business says its members are being used as "cash cows.' for the insurance industry. This organization is pushing for the encouragement of private sector re -insurance capacity along with better underwriting practices and regulatory In January, 1986 the situation was so bad more than 20 in- mirance companies in Ontario agreed to form a voluntary association to provide small businesses and sort -profit organizations with liability coverage. The association spreads the insurantce risks among a large number of com- panies so that no single company has more than 5 percent of the liability risk for each client. However. some businesses might still not be able to get insurance, and in other cases, the premiums are extremely high Many of the insurance companies. on the other hand, never had it so good. They have hiked their premiums and eliminated the risk. The companies are exploiting businesses and consumers. In the United States, the same thing is going on. Delegates to last year's White House Con- ference on Small Business agreed that cost of liability in- surance was the most critical issue confnmting there - they called it the life and death sentence of small businesses. In Ontario, the government released the Slater Task Force an Insurance hoping to find some ways to resolve the liability insurance crisis. Despite its provincial stater-• the report gained national importance. Ontario's small business sector still looks to the provincial government, hoping to find a light at the end of the tunnel. But whatever the government decides to do, the crisis will have long-lasting rcperctsuions. In fact, it has already changed the face of the industry. O.V.A. Team (16, 17, 18 year olds) .
