B.C. A. According to the Dunlap Illustrated Encyclopedia of Facts, the oldest sport is wrestling. Based on Egyptian murals at Beni Hasan, historians and archaeologists date the sport back to about 3000 B.C. Other early sports are track and field (about 1300 B.C.), boxing (about 1370 B.C.). fencing (about 1190 B.C.), gym- nastics (about 776 B.C.) and field hockey (about 510 B.C.). Present day popular sports such as baseball. basketball, bowling, hockey, lawn tennis, and cycling are of recent origin. Each was created since the United States gained its independence. Q. My Mom is always complaining about my bad table manners. I wish I lived back in the olden days when there were no rules. D.S. A. Don't complain. Here is a list of fifteenth century rules of etiquette: 1) learn these rules; 2) take care to cut and clean your nails, dirt under the nails is dangerous when scrat- ching; 3) do not be the first to take from the dish; 4) do not put back on the plate what has been in your mouth; 5) do not offer anyone a piece of food you have bitten into; 6) do not chew anything you have to spit out again; 7) do not stuff too much into yourself, or you will be obliged to commit a breach of good manners; 8) do not scratch at the table, with you hands or with the tablecloth. Imagine eating with people who had to be told not to do these things. Thank goodness for Moms. STAFFORD BROTHERS 1HONI'11ENTS LTD. 318 DLINDAS ST E. • WHITBY.

However, a great number of commuters are using Concession 5 Road to reach destinations in Metro Toronto and Markham, causing a serious traffic hazard to local residents along this road.

Page 2 THE NEVI'S POST Wed. June 17, 1987 opinion a page for expression for you and us We'll Regret It! by Bob Watson Well, all three of our political parties at Queen's Park have succumbed to a handful of feminists and passed a law which puts the salaries of women employees of every com- pany in Ontario i except under 10 employees) into the hands of a mass of soon-to-be employed civil servants. The so-called "Equal Pay for Work Of Equal Value" will cost Ontario about $9 billion when it is fully implemented in six years and about that time industry will have left this province to other areas where industry is free of ridiculous government regulations. It is our opinion that most Ontario citizens don't unders- tand what this scandalous law means. It does not mean equality for everyone. It does not mean equal pay for the same job. It means a government dictator will decide - not the company whose money is on the line - if a female employee should be paid the same as another employee in a different job who happens to be of the male gender! This is probably the most biased and discriminatory law ever passed in Ontario for it means that government will decide the pay of females who work. This could mean that trade unions will be out of date - and certainly investors in companies hanging on a line of a small profit will have to cut costs and that usually means labour. We predict that the number of women employed in Ontario will drop in the future as companies play the mental game of wits with hovering government inspectors. Free enterprise is deemed by most sensible citizens to be the better in production of goods and services because costs must be considered in order to make a profit for investors. Government control is. therefore. not effective at all because its role is to spend money on social welfare, which is not profitable_ As Professor John Crispo said an CFRB this week we free -thinking citizens no longer have a party to vote for In the next election as they all practice the role of socialists. Speaking Out Congratulations Bob Watson on your Freedom of Speech column of May 20 87. At long last. someone in the media has spoken out concer- ning minority parades to protest bigotry and racism. We wonder sometimes if these protests would occur if they were ignored by the press. If we Immigrated to another country. we would try to learn the language and adapt to their customs. Thee is a saying for travellers. "U you want things the same as at home. then you should stay at home... Canadianism should be first and then multiculturalism. Don't ignore your customs and native language. children taught these things in their home will respect their heritage. Enjoy Canada for what it is and share the privileges it has taken vears to achieve. Those of us that are fortunate enough to be Canadians for many generations are willing to share but please don't try to bring your prejudices of another land here, we don't need them. If we learn to call ourselves Canadian. not English Cana- dian, French Canadian, East Indian Canadian. Chinese Canadian etc. then and only then will we take a step in the right direction. it was only after World War 11 we had the privilege of calling ourselves Canadian. Let's use the woad Canadian with pride and show our loyalty to a great country. Warren and Dorothy Brewer Praises Ethel It was so gratifying to learn from your photo news section that Ethel Brazier has finally received the recognition that she so richly deserves for her work with senior citizens. Work! It's her whole life and the Birkdale Community Centre is the recipient of all her talents, love and drive. To sum Ethel up in the fewest of words "Birkdale is Ethel and Ethel is Birkdale".

Speaking at the 24th annual national convention of B'na Brith Canada. David Matas. legal courtsel and newly elected national vice president of the organization. called upon the government to withdraw the legislation. "Bill C-55 is a violation of basic principles which Canada has accepted internationally." said Matas. "Passage of this bill would bring an end to Canada's humanitarian traditions." Minimum Wage Ontario Labour Minister William Wrye has announced that the general minimum wage will rise to $4.55 per hour from $4.35 per hour beginning in the won week in which Oct. 1. 1907 falls. The 20 cents -per -hour revision represents an increase of 4.6 percent over the minimum wage that was last adjusted in October of 1906. The Minister said that, in addition to the increase in the general minimum wage, there will also be 20 cents -per -hour increases in the minima for liquor servers, hunting guides, domestic workers, and students under the age of 18. A 20 cents -per -lour increase for fruit, vegetable and tobacco harvesters will take effect January 1, 1908. Underfunded Says Grossman The Liberal government has decreased the base amount of legislative grants by $144 million, says Opposition Leader Larry Grossman. According to officials in the Treasury and Education ministries, the money advanced to the school boards - or preflowed - for 1988 89 is build into the funding allocated in the 1987 88 budget, says Mr. Grossman. "If the preflow had been broken out in the same manner it was broken out under actual spending in 1906, 87, the amount of money going to school boards under General Legislative grants becomes a net decrease," says the op- position leader. If Nixon had reported this advance separately in his pro- jections - as he did last year - the actual base amount being transferred to the schools under General Legislative grants falls this year by about $144 million," says Grossman and he added: "No matter how the figures are interpreted, General Legislative Grants are dwon and there is no ex- planation from the Treasurer." and Scott Cavalier. alderman Ward 11.

( Photo by Blackhall) Bob's Notes Overtime Pay For Domestics All of Ontario's full-time domestics and nannies will be entitled to standard overtime pay starting Oct. 1, according to the new regulations. Under existing legislation, only domestics living outside the household qualify for extra compensation for hours worked in access of 44 hours a week. Live-in domestics are now excluded from the over- time provisions of the Employment Standards Act. The new regulations extend the right to overtime pay to all full-time domestics ( those employed more than 24 hours a week) as well as to nannies with special training in child care. May MILS Statistics Show Stable Market MLS statistics for May have confirmed a return to a stable real estate market where both buyers and sellers must have sensible expectations, John Oliver, President of the Toronto Real Estate Board, said recently. "It's clear the market has adjusted following the significant growth that occurred in 1906 and the early part of 1967," Mr. Oliver said. "The pent up demand that fuelled the market through 1906 for the past year and a half has run its course,.. the President explained, adding that the adjustment is the result of an increase in interest rates and consumers' grow- ing sensitivity to prices. Demands Post-Deschenes Action B'na Brith Canada has passed a resolution which com- mends the federal government for the appointment and its acceptance of the findings of the Deschenes Commission report on Nazi war criminals in Canada. But the resolution expressed dismay at the delay in the introducito n of propos- ed legislation and the failure of the government to release the A1tiRodal report. Calling on the government to act expeditiously, Frank Di- mant, executive vice president of B'nai Brith Canada, said: "We are running up against a time deadline. This is a mat- ter of the utmost urgency as it won't be long before there simply will not be any Holocaust witnesses or survivors left." New Regulations The maximum alcohol content permitted in "very low alcohol" beverages sold in retail food stores will soon be cut in half, says Consumer Minister Monte Kwinter. A survey on consumption of these products by children was released by the minister today. At the same time, he announce that regulations are being amended to decrease the amount of alcohol allowed in unrestricted beverages to 0.5 percent from the current level of one percent. i Give A Gift That Lasts A11 Year!

This special month-long celebration is an opportunity to acknowledge the significant contributions seniors have made and will continue to make to our society, especially in Scarborough Centre. Their dedication and achievements have advanced our quality of life, enriched our cultural heritage and, in short, have helped to create the Province of Ontario we all enjoy today. All our lives are enriched by sharing their talents, interests and vast experience. I have had the pleasure since being elected to represent Scarborough Centre, the privilege of visiting on a fairly regular basis with many of the seniors in Scarborough Cen- tre in their homes and also in our nursing homes, chronic care facilities and retirement villas. I have talked with their families and their friends about their concerns, not on- ly for today but for tomorrow. Our greatest challenge which we face today and over the coming decades is tow to res- pond the care of the elderly - not only our current elderly but those who will require services in the future. Our seniors across this Province have provided us with a rich tradition and the fruits of their hard work. In turn, we owe them nothing less than our total support and respect, and our abil: ity to erasure that they can live their lives with independence and d*Wty- Scarborough's seniors, and more particularly Scar- borough Centre seniors, this month are hosting various kinds of festivities in order to celebrate this important occa- Wed. June 17, 1987 THE NEWS/POST Page 5 Potftl Your Eyes From Summer Sun 11 Getting out into the summer sun is an obsession for many Canadians. A few short months are all we: have to wear our summer apparel and work on our tans. Most of us know to protect our skin from too much sun, but did you know that the same rays that give us a golden brown tan also contribute to the development of cataracts in your eyes? Those tanning rays, called ul- traviolet (UV) radiation, have been linked to cataract forma- tion and corneal damage by a number of recent studies. So just as you put c. m and lotion on your skin to avoid the dam- aging effects of sunburn, you should also take steps to protect your eyes. Just shading your eyes from the sun with a cap or visor is not sufficient to block out all of the ultraviolet radiation. A great deal of this radiation is reflected off ground sources such as con- crete, oo-trete, sand or water. So when you're out playing tennis, for example, remember that UV radiation from the sun is being reflected from the playing sur- face and because n is invisible, you don't even notice its effects. Ultraviolet radiation is also re- flected from sand and water — so when you're spending time at the beach or by the pool, be careful to protect your eyes. WHAT CAN YOU DO' Although we don`t like to tact lenses or are considering them, soft and hard lenses are now available with a built-in UV filter. The soft lenses, called Permaflex UV, are available in Canada from CooperVision Inc. An extra molecule in the plastic, not a coating or a tint, absorbs the UV — so they look and work just Like regular con- tact lenses. Good UV -absorbing sun- glasses are widely available and they don't necessarily cost more than you are used to paying. However, be careful to read the Label before you purchase —not fool your pupils into enlarging, allowing even more UV radia- tion to enter the eye. Also available is a coating that can be put onto your pres- cription eyeglasses. However, this will wear off after a while, and your glasses will have to be re -coated. So whether your summer schedule has you out on the tennis court or spending time by the pool or beach, make sure you protect your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays as well as you protect your skin.

The former sings In A Sentimental Mood and I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good in a man- ner that could justifiably be described as defirutive. We can pay no higher camph- ment.

Musical Director David Warrack pulls a good show sound out of the small or- chestra and plaudits must go to the saxophonist. We don't know his name but his playing is Pure Johnny Hodges. Director Adolf Toman keeps the show moving briskly and there is not one single slow spot; just non- stop entertainment. The set design of reliable Antonin Dimitrov is classically simplistic and brilliantly evocative of the theme in basic black and white. it is well served by the lighting design of Ben Cekuta.

Ah bliss' AT THE OPERA: The Canadian Opera Company is closing its 1986 87 season at The O'Keefe with a production of Lucia Di Larnmermoore that we declare, with unabashed enthusiasm, faultless. By grand opera criteria, Donizetti's bel canto masterpiece has a small cast of principals and in this production, each one excels in his her role. Soprano Nelly Mincioiu in the title role could well have stepped out of the pages of the Scott novel upon which the opera is based. Only a Scot, such as this reviewer, knows the passion of the Highlands and Miss Mincioiu either instinctively or under the brilliant direction of Anne Ewers displays them in all their terrifying power. Her voice is her servant as well and allows its owner to push it to heights of brilliance. Miss M never falters in her portrayal and her voice never falters in its delineation.

The Canadian Show Train Coming Again Blyth & Company is once again offering the Canadian Show Train to vacationers. First offered in 1978, the Show Train captured North America's imagination. In 1987, the Show Train will again feature privately chattered cars, fine food, cabaret entertainment and a dazzling Murder Mystery Drama. The journey commences with a welcoming reception at Toronto's Royal York Hotel, and ends with a farewell banquet at the historical Hotel Vancouver. En route participants will enjoy a standard of cuisine and commemoration of the War of 1812. That bloody war was the last time Cana- dians and Americans have taken up arms against each other. Friendship Festival '87, representing Fort Erie, On- tario and Buffalo N.Y. are celebrating on July 1-4, 175 years of peace and har- mony between two coun- tries. The Military Tattoo will be a major and signifi- cant event of those days. Although the festival is a celebration of peace, there was once a time when the war cry could be heard eminating from each border. The Military Tat- too will present a re- enactment of the War of 1812 in colourful uniforms service unmatched on North American trains. With scheduled stops in Banff and Vancouver, the Show Train will include three spectacular days in Banff National Park, in the beautiful Canadian Rockies. A choice of accommodation is offered on the train, and stays in each city at centrally located first class hotels. Space is limited on each of four departures, July 10, July 21, Aug. 4 and Sept. 25th.

June 17, 1987 • Dear John:,lJohn Deere Answers Your d Lawn and Garden Woes Pocket Gardening Dear John: My small yard allows little room for a vegetable garden. How can I make the most of the available space' Dear Pocket Gardener: Try selecting varieties that give you a big yield from a few plants. Viny plants tend to sprawl all over the space. So, either avoid them and choose bush varieties instead, or use trellises to help viny plans grow up, not out. Some plants like cantloupes and cucumbers can be trained to grow on wooden frames. Another option is inter - cropping. This lets you plant two crops in the same area. Crops are chosen so you can harvest on before the other shades it out. Radishes and carrots are good choices for this technique. Dear John: Can you give we the lowdown on all the types of roses on the market' Dear Rosey Poser: Flower gardeners know better than to believe that a rose is a rose is a rose. The most common types of roses available include hybrid teas, floribundas, grandifloras and miniatures. Hybrid teas are good for cutting because they have straight stems and large flowers, up to 6 or 7 incites across. Floribundas' best at- tribute is that they produce many flowers. In fact, one stem can equal a full bou- quet. Each flower grows 3 to 4 inches across. Aft Grandifloras, a combina- tion of those two, have larger flowers than floribundas and produce more flowers than hybrid teas. Miniatures are the har- diest type. And because of their size (usually about 15 inches tall) they can be grown in pots as well as the garden. Dear John: Should i be fer- tilizing now? How mach should I apply' Dear Calendar Watcher: Both cool -season and warm -season grasses will benefit from a spring Decoration Trends By Catherine Jablonski The way we live and the times in which we live greatly influence the direc- tion in furniture design and style. And, with today's hectic pace, it seems that more people are reaching out for relaxation and comfort - a retreat from hard -edged, high-tech looks of the past and move toward softness in silhouette, textures and colors. Because of this, English country reproductions are enjoying a revival, com- plete with floral-petterned chintzes, ruffles and elegant, decorative accents on puffy and inviting easy chairs and sofas. Colors match the mood in rosy tones plus greens. Blues, white and off-white, teal and peach are also impor- tant colors throughout fur- niture stylings. Eighteenth Century English reproductions are also favored in wood fur- niture detailed with period features such as the Acan- thus leaf, Greek key boarder treatments, dentil moulding and shell carv- ing. Contemporary kooks also continue to be popular but with a trend toward softer colors and textures found primarily in woven solids or plains as well as leather. Patterns such as plaids or stripes are also starting to make an impact as a reflection of the more infor- mal, casual influence. Interestingly, plaids are also found in traditional upholstered pieces as well as the always popular Jac- quards and velvets - underscoring the range and overlap of all style categories into a more "transitional" direction. Country themes abound in a harmony of colors, fabrics and woods pulled from a variety of sources. Look for honey colors, dark woods, earthen ware, wicker and terra cotta touches. But remember that country styles are good mixers and work well with elegant accents and accessories. Traditional materials also return with surprising twists. with continued in- terest in faux finishes that look like marble, granite and exotic surfaces that are now often as affordable as a coat of paint. Accessories tape on even grater signifance as a way to personalize the home. Occasional pieces such as chair -side chests, lamp tables, sofa -back tables, and focal -point cocktail tables are all becoming im- portant. Brass tables featuring glass or mirror, sometimes combined with wood. are also gaining momentum. Tabletops are becoming showcases for collectibles and personal treasures. As important as the fur- niture, is the way in which it is put together. An at - bone comfort prevails and demands that every room must work - not merely be Monday 1:01) p.m. 7700 p.m. Tuesdav --------------- 9.30a.m.-7:00p.m- Wednesday 9:30 a.m. 7:00 p.m. Thursday 19 30 a.m.-8:00 P.M..

It replenishes the food stores used up fast in the first flush of spring growth. When you apply fertilizer, always follow the directions for usage listed on the bag's label. Buy fer- tilizer with at least a 3-1-2 ratio of nitrogen to phosphorus to potassium, and apply one pound of ac- tual nitrogen for each 1,000 square feet of lawn. And keep your eye on the calendar. Warm -season grasses need another feeding in early summer and early fall. For cool - season varieties, late fall is the most important feeding of all. looked at. The emphasis now now is on rooms in which you can read, listen to music, watch television, entertain friends, and put your feet up. Furniture today offers so many options that you do not need to give up comfort for style. And, furniture doesn't have to be static - it can be rearranged. When it is arranged comfortably, it will also look its best.

Report from Queen's Park W aw•w0%. _ ._ --- By George Ashe, MPP Durham West QUESTIONABLE FUNDRAISING! What do you think of Liberal cabinet ministers that have been using ministry lists to raise money for election pur- poses? Ontano's Health Minister is being severely criticized for questionable fundraising methods. Mr. Elston seat more than 1,000 invitations for a fundraising event to health care professionals and officials of agencies associated with or receiving funds from the Ministry of Health. The implication is that people who financially supported the Minister's re-election would receive special attention. Invitations were sent by Mr. Elston's Ministry staff, the Bruce riding association and Liberal party headquarters - on Government letter head. This is not the fust time liberals have used government lists and data to raise funds for political purposes. Attorney -General Ian Scott invited lawyers doing business with the province to his fundraiser. Housing Minister Alvin Curling invited developers and homebuilders to his fun- draiser. Soon after they took office, the Liberal Economic Ad- visory Forum was set up. For $1,000 businessmen were in- vited to join the Forum to enjoy special access to the Premier and the Treasurer. "It is clear the Liberals have looted the mailing lists of every ministry in this government and are using them for partisan purposes," my colleague, Alan Pope M.P.P., stated. M.P.P. Phil Gillies stated, "Ministry lists are for ministry officials to do their business, not to generate funds for the minister's political campaigns." "It's improper - this type of pressure put on the health care field should be stopped," according to Gillies. I agree. It would also appear that about 160 invitations were mail- ed "by mistake" through the legislative mail system. Mr. Elston said he reimbursed the public purse for the postage. We are in the business of politics. It is a costly vocation but I feel that it is improper to misuse one's position for political purposes. I can assure my constituents that as a minister in four different portfolios I never used ministry fists in any partisan way. I guess some have different etbws than others. Too bad! Special note to seniors: Thursday June 25 is seniors free day at the Metro Toronto Zoo. From 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. seniors will be admitted free; free traimportaboo within the site will be available and a complimentary beverage will be provided courtesy of McDonald's Restaurants. Enjoy a great day by yourself or with your friends at the Metro Toronto Zoo. Speaking To You Scott Fennel M.P. Ontario Riding Scott Fennell, M.P. for Ontario Riding announced last week on behalf of Transport Minister John C. Crosbie that some 3800 hectares, more than half of the land acquired by Transport Canada for airport development in the Pickering area, has been declared surplus and turned over to the Department of Public Works for disposal. Over the next six months, Public Worts will be finalizing an implementation strategy and seeking Treasury Board authority for the disposal. The balance of the area will remain under Transport Canada ownership and will continue to be leased out for residential, agricultural or corunercial purposes, said Mr. Fennell. The entire 7,530 hectare site was acquired by Transport Canada in 1973 for a future international airport and has been managed since that time by Public Works Canada. Mr. Fennell said permanent controls would be placed on surrounding lands to protect any future airport operations and ensure compatability between the airport and its neighbors. The controls include zoning regulations to protect future runways by restricting the height of buildings and natural growth that surround the site and a notice on deeds or easements advising that restrictions have been imposed due to the proximity of a possible future airport. In addition, Transport Canada has revised the noise "envelopes" that define expected aircraft noise exposure in the area. These will assist local land use planning authorities in ensuring compatible land uses outside the land remaining for future airport use. Mr. Fennell noted that as a result of these revised con- trols, less land outside the retained site would face land use restrictions. Return of this land to private ownership will benefit surrounding communities, he added. Public Works Canada will proceed with a systematic disposal of the 482 properties in the land area identified as surplus.
