When one hears of immigrants coming to America "in steerage" what does that mean' Where is the steerage sec- tion of a ship? M.B. A. The steerage section of the ship is the passage below decks near the ship's steering gear. It is usually dim, crowded, airless, and very noisy, and therefore makes very uncomfortable (but inexpensive) accommodations. Steerage passage in the late nineteenth century cost as lit- tle as fifteen dollars. Q. All invented the stethoscope? C.D. A. The stethoscope was invented by a French doctor, Rene Theophile Hyacinthe Laennec, in 1816. He got the idea from the sight of children scratching one end of a wooden beam with a pin and listening to the sounds transmitted to the other end. Laennec's stethoscope was a wooden cylinder one foot long with which he listened to a patient's heart and lungs. He gathered evidence by comparing the various chest noises of ill patients with the type of disease symptoms seen after they died and in 1819 published his findings in one of the great books of medicine, De ]'Auscultation Mediate. With the publication of this work, the stethoscope soon came into general use. STAFFORn BROTHERS 1*10NV'%1FNTS LTII. 318 DUNDAS ST E - WHITBY. ONT Lt N 5R7 Phae 669.3552 Upright Monuments.

July '22, 1987 Opinion a page for expression for you and us The Voters Speak by Bob Watson Three by-elections on Monday have indicated very clear- ly that Canadians are not happy with their government at Ottawa, aren't terribly pleased with the Liberals and have gone with the New Democrats in disgust. The danger in this movement of voting is that a general election with this feeling could put into power a socialist party which would revolutionize our way of life in a way which most Canadians, we believe, wouldn't like. So voters better start thinking more clearly before the big federal election comes. Of course, the Progressive Conservatives could solve their problem by asking Brian Mulroney to step down from his position and be replaced by a person whose policies and actions are in line with a true conservative point of view. That person would have to have the support of most of the members of Parliament who belong to the PC Party. This has never been done in Canadian political life to have a prime minister turned out by his party while in power, but the British system of government we inherited is very flexi- ble. The PCs since coming into power have done some great things. The inflation rate is down much lower, interest rates are down where the public can handle it, unemployment is down considerably, our defence forces are getting put back into shape slowly and crown corporations are being sold to private enterprise one by one. However, the voters have Wed that Prime Minster Mulroney favours Quebec over other provinces far too much. he makes decisions about world affairs of which he seems completely unknowledgeable and he spends most of his energy i the voters think) catering to another person of Irish descent, President Ronald Reagan. on so-called "free" trade. All in all this adds up to very strong biases. Whether these criticisms are correct or not. the fad is that the PM's image is faulty if he wishes a second term and either he should change immediately or give way to a mote acceptable person. Heritage languages Dear Mr. Watson. Whenever I read your editorials, and I miss few. I can't refrain from saying ..Bravo!.. When you decide to run for trustee of the Board of Education, or any other elected of- fice, please do let me know and 1 will help wherever I can. It is with growing consternation that we have watched the unfolding of the Heritage Language Debate. heritage languages have been taught at Scarborough schools for as Jong as 1 can remember. The Scarborough Board of Educa- tion has always been generous in donating the use of school space. We, immigrants ourselves, have been grateful. We were glad of the opportunities given us and did not object to paying for teachers and materials. What is happening to our society" When will the demands stop? Are we a racist society" It seems to me that some new-imaugrant-extremists are trying very, very hard to make it so. How can these newcomers demand that all tax- payers pay for their heritage language instruction' Had it not been for taxes paid by us and create a Board of Educa- tion there wouldn't have been anv schools to attend. When talking to friends and neighbours about these and other issues i such as daycare, unemployment, the Horrox affair) one detects not just anger but frightful worry about deci- sions made in our name ( and our cost) by elected officials. There is one request I would like to make: to be fair to constituents please print names of trustees and how they vote on these important issues m your newspaper. Maybe more honourable men, such as Mr. Horrox, would be mak- ing decisions for us. It would mean a giant leap forward for Canadians. Or do the politicians really think that the demands would stop after they decide on free heritage language instruction, free daycare. etc.'. Maybe we should have learneJ from history. Why is Canada bankrupt' And to top it all off we are called "stingy" Canadians. For 18 years I have been a volunteer counting change for a charitable organization. Probably I've counted more than $25,000. No longer am I interested, for the Indian people we tried to help in the 1960's have come to Canada and thanked us by demanding more and more. And when someone has the guts to stand up to them, like Mr. Horrox did, he was threatened and so was his family. I am thoroughly disillu- sioned and baffled by human greed and selfishness. When I read your editorials I am strengthened by the fact that there are others. Mrs. Janet Smit Agincourt news' � ost Published every Wednesday by Watson Publishing Company Limited.

Major Step Forward Dear Sir: Scarborough Council at its meeting on July 13 took a ma- jor step in meeting the community and social service needs of Scarborough and in particular. day care needs. Council made a decision to establish a Council Committee on Social Development.. This committee will enable Council to assess and advocate in all areas of social need in Scarborough. Scarborough is the City of the Future and the City of the Future needs the wherewithal to meet the challenges and demands of a modern city. The decision followed a presentation to Council by members of the Child Care Committee of Human Services of Scarborough. Members of the Committee outlined to Council, the critical need to improve day care services and pleaded for more help. Council's decision far exceeded the Committee's expectations and Committee members were delighted with the results. Council's decision is not widely known and this is an im- portant piece of legislation which the community needs to be made aware of. I should like to suggest that you provide some media coverage on the matter. If you would like a copy of the Child Care Committee's presentation, I will be happy to respond. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to a favourable reply and thank you for your consideration. Yours sincerely, Doug Hum, M.S.W. Community Worker, Scarborough Branch Member of the Child Care Committee Delay Bylaw On Vicious Dogs by Gay Abbate Scarborough Council has put off dealing with a pro- posed by-law to control vicious dogs such as pit bulls. At its last meeting coun- cil sent the draft legislation back to its legislation com- mittee because of concerns raised by the Concerned Canine Association of Canada. A spokesman for the group said council should go after the owners of vicious dogs instead of the animals themselves. The committee is to look at a number of suggestions made by the association in- cluding a hierarchy of fines for owners depending on the crime committed, re- quiring a dog to be spayed or neutered before it can obtain a licence and bann- ing the sale of dogs in retail stores. The proposed by-law would allow the city's animal centre staff to destroy a vicious dog, ban it from Scarborough or fine its owner. It defines a vicious dog as one which has bitten a human or an animal or has previously been identified as being vicious. Illegal Entries Viewpoint Reg Stackhouse. M.P. Scarborough West, believes that the 174. ec t arrivals being held at CFB Stadacona, should not be allowed to move to Taranto and other cities. He feels the reasons are clear and understandable. Stackhouse says that there are so many. many families in Metro Toronto, including Scarborough West, who have had relatives and friends refused after going through the legal process. "There is no way that such people can be expected to endorse the admission of people who have not come as legal immigrants, and who are not clearly genuine refugees," states the Scarborough West member. Stackhouse believes that it is not necessary for the new arrivals to be admitted to normal Canadian communities while awaiting appeals. He hopes that special accommoda- tion. under supervision, can be provided. "This will send a message throughout Canada and overseas that illegal en- tries will not accomplish what the persons have in mind when they set out for Canada... He commends the government for its swift legal action against certain crew members of the Amelie. ............ Bob's Notes Register Paid Lobbyists The Minister of Consumer and Corporate Affairs, Harvie Andre, tabled a bill in the House of Commons in June to register paid lobbyists. "Lobbying is a very legitimate part of our democratic government," the Minister said. "The registration of paid lobbyists will clear up misconceptions surrounding this process and open it up to public scrutiny." The Prime Minister committed the government to a paid lobbyists registration system in September of 1985. The system is based on a unanimous all -party parliamentary committee report which was tabled in the House of Com- mons in January of this year.

Ed Fulton Miftistar d Tramps tabs aed commutt'r "ons MPP Scarborough East 4 SESSION HIGHLIGHTS The 1997 spring sitting of the 33rd Parliament of Ontario came to a close on June 29. The sitting tasted ten weeks and was h igN4 ted by the passage of several important pieces of goverrumennt legislation. Most recently, the legislature passed the Freedom of In- formation and Privacy Act. Attorney General Ian Scott called Ball 34 "an important law which reflects this govern- ment's commitment to open government and to a better way of protecting the privacy of the individual." The Act establishes a general right of access to government infor- mation and extends to all ministries, about iso boards, agencies and commissions and municipalities. The sitting also witnessed much activity by Labour Minister Bill Wrye. Mr. Wrye introduced several bills in- cluding: *Bill 79, which grants workers and communities the might to know about hazardous materials in the workplace. 'Bill 170, an Act to Revise the Pension Benefits Act. will ex - ted the right to severance pay to more workers and re- quire longer notice of impending terminations or layoffs. *Amendments to the Occupational Health and Safety Act were introduced and will expand a worker's night to refuse to do a job the worker believes is unsafe. On June 25 the government recaved a unanimous deci- sion from the Supreme Court of Canada upholding the con- stitutionality of Bill 30. The bill extended full funding to grades 11, 12 and 13 of the separate school system in On- tario. After the derision, Education Minister Sean Conway reaffirmed that "the government is looking to the future of our publicly -funded school systems with a strong commit- ment to provide quality education for all Ontario students." During the sittir_g the opposition parties blocked two im- portant government initiatives. The AM to Control Tem- porarily Automobile Insurance Rates in Ontario and the Conflict of Interest Bill were refused final reading and forc- ed into further con mitte hearings during the sumnner. Unanimous support from all three parties in the legislature allowed passage of the government's ground- breaking Pay Equity Bill. With this bill the government is eliminating gender discrimination m wages while at the same time maintaining a competitive and vibrant economy. Premier David Peterson said the Pay Equity Bill is "a very significant step towards bringing true economic equality between men and women," and a "pioneering first" in North America. The promise made in the April 26 Throne Speech to in- troduce a comprehensive provincial policy on child care was also fulfilled during the sitting. Community and Social Services Minister John Sweeney introduced new initiatives to expand the child care system while concentrating on issues of affordability, quality, accessibility and choice. Funding for child care in Ontario will more than double over the next three years and by 1990 will be $325 million. During the sitting Mr. Sweeny also introduced a long- term plan for the care of developmentally handicapped peo- ple in the province. The aim of the seven-year plan is to set up a community service system where 11,000 developmen- tally handicapped people will be supported in their home communities, provided with a wide range of residential, supported living and employment services. The government also introduced many new initiatives geared to bring the government more in line with the realities of society in modern Ontario. Citizenship and Culture Minister Lily Munro announced a government -wide multiculturalism strategy. "Together all ministries will make our excellent public institutions more sensitive, responsive and accessible to everyone," said Mrs. Munro. "Programs operated or fund- ed by the province will respond to the needs of our multicultural society." A new Race Relations Directorate, the first of its kind in Canada, was announced by Attorney General Ian Scott. The directorate will be responsible for promotion, advocacy and policy development on racial issues. Over the 35 days of the sitting 64 bills were dealt with and many received Royal assent.

Report From Bill Davis M.P.P. SCARBOROUGH CENTRE KEY :HONEY One of the most unfair practices which has arisen in re- cent years is the practice by individuals of charging "Key Money" in the rental housing market. This practice involves under-the-table payments from prospective tenants in order to have an opportunity to rent a uu»t in a building. These payments are made to landlords or to tenants wanting to sublet or assign a unit. Key money can be disguised as a charge for draperies or furnishings. It is now illegal to charge key money. Both the landlord and tenant. or anyone acting on their behalf. are prohibited from collecting or attempting to collect key money. A conviction for ctsarging key money can bring a fine of up to 32.000 and in the case of a corporation, up to 325,000. Tenants who have paid key money have several options. They can seek a refund. lay a charge, or do both. In order to zubate these steps, a tenant should contact the local rent review office where staff can provide support and assistance. U key money was paid to a landlord, tenants must apply to the nearest rent review office for an order respiring the Landlord to repay the money an the ground that the charge was an illegal rent increase. If key money is paid for a sublet, an action must be laun- ched in Small Claims Court or District Court seeking a re- fund of the key money. While it was not an offence to charge key money prior to Jan. 1. I96? under the Residential Tenancies Act, it might be argued that such charges paid to a landlord exceeded lawful rant increases. Tenants living in units that were protected by rent review prior to Jan. 1. 1961. and who paid key money to a landlord before Jan. 1, 1967 may apply to the local rent review office for a refund under the rant rebate section of the new Act. - STOP - BEDWEITING Many procedures, such as restricting liquids and taking children on a schedule to the bathroom do not usually end bedwetting.

Hints For Diamond Buying This year, it's estimated that three out of every four Canadian brides will choose or receive a diamond engage- ment ring. Will you be among them? If so, you and your fiance will want to know all there is to know about diamonds prior to making that all- important purchase. A dia- mond is an investment in beauty for a very special person. it's an investment in individuality, for like your relationship, no two dia- monds are alike. Sometimes trying to find the "right" diamond can seem to be as complex as finding the right state. What guidelines exist to aid you through the maze of diamond grading and price? HELPFUL HINTS: For starters, choose a reputable jeweller - one in whom you have confidence - one whom you can trust. Make sure he'll talk to you frankly and freely about the diamond you want to pur- chase- If you don't know anyone, and that's not too unusual as the engagement ring is often the first major purchase a young couple makes, ask your friends And, shop around. A jeweller's willingness to give you straight, honest answers and make recommendations is a good indication of his know- ledge and reputability. That accomplished ... how do you choose your dia- mond? What determines a diamond's quality and value? The Four C's -- carat weight, colour, clarity and cut. The combination of subtle gradations in each of these four factors determine the value of a diamond. When choosing your dia- mond engagement ring, con- sider the diamond not just the overall appearance of the mounting and design. For it's the diamond - the hardest and most durable of all gemstones and not the metal it's mounted within -- that will be cherished for a lifetime. Carat Weight (there are 100 points in a carat) plays a major role in determining the price. Smaller diamonds are more plentiful than large ones. Therefore, large stones are rarer and consequently, more costly. A tr_ carat good quality diamond for ex- ample, could cost from $2,500 to 55,000. A good quality one carat diamond however can cost from $8,000 to S12.000. As the size and quality increases, so does the price. Diamonds come in any colour of the spectrum - but most diamonds are "white" with a tinge of colour. A diamond can be 'warm' or 'cool'. Barely discernible touches of body colour in a "white diamond - usually yellow or brown - will lower the price the more prominent the colour be- comes. The more nearly a diamond approaches being Summer & Exercise Ah Summer! It's the season when everyone wants to look good and feel good because it shows! A sensible exercise program combined with smart eating habits can make Summer a dream come true. It is well known that ex- ercise offers an abundance of benefits including overall fitness and health, decreased body fat and an increase in calorie burn - off. With regular exercise, most people have more energy, vitality, endurance and feel better about themselves in general. Ex- ercise is fun, ideal for a busy person's schedule, and best of all costs nothing.

Diamonds like people are born with imperfections - "birthmarks" called inclu- sions. Thew inclusions affect the diamond's clartt v. Rarely risible to the naked eye, these imperfections do not perceptibly interfere with the diamond's beauty. Every diamond, even one defused commercially 'flawless' (in- clusions not visible when viewed tinder 10 -power magnification) contains at least some slight natural imperfection. It's the place- ment and number of these inclusions which determine a diamond's value. Cut refers to both the make of a diamond (the way the facets are arranged ) and to its shape. When a diamond's 58 facets are perfectly pro- portioned. the cut is referred to as a "perfect make" because it handles and re- flects light with the greatest efficiency. Shallower or nar- rower cuts depending on the original size of the rough stone - can be 'saving' factors when it comes to price. The diamond's shape usually falls into the five most popular brilliant, marquise, pear, oval and emerald. How much should you spend' Never spend more than you can afford at the time 5 of purchase. A good rule of thumb: invest four or five times your weekly salary in an engagement ring. Your original diamond, in years to come, can be traded up to a larger one - or reset - and a larger diamond pur- chased when circumstances permit. Be prepared to spend more than fiances did in the past. Diamonds, like everthing else. have increased in price. Invest your dollars in the stone not the setting. The thinner and simpler the setting, the larger and better quality diamond you can expect to buy. The solitaire or single -stone dia- mond engagement is your best bet . . . for an of its value is in the one diamond. Choosing your diamond engagement ring need not be confusing. It lust takes a little understanding of the slight differences in quality that make one stone worth more than another. Your diamond engagement ring is more than a gift - it symbolizes a senous under- taking, it marks a new beginning. What could be more appropriate than a diamond - the symbol of enduring love.

July 22, 19874 Around and About.- V our Dining & Entertainment Guide Bill Wait's Worlds DINING AND DANCING: One of our favourite songs is Turn Back the Hands of Time. We found ourself humming it on a re- cent Sunday evening at Berlin. That's the club on Yonge St. just north of Eglinton. It used to be the Variety Dinner Theatre. It's a thriving club now featuring music every night of the week geared, in the main, toward the young and upwardly mobile. Sun- day evenings however• have now been turned over to dining and dancing the way it used to be. We were there for the premiere evening and quite enjoyed ourself. Berlin is probably best described by the thirties term, smart. It approaches elegance and grace while preserving a fun at- mosphere. The decor is firmly but gently stated and the service o(the staff beyond any criticism. Incidentally• although we no longer smoke (only smoulder), we were delighted to see an honest to Billingsley cigarette girl in attendance. We hadn't seen one in Toronto since the demise of the old Club One Two. The menu is large enough to be interesting but not so large as to be overpowering. We began with a Ceasar salad. gently garlicked and with iarvc croutons. Our companion was pleased by the Shrimp on Chiffonade. For an entree the lady chose Berlin of Beef. The 10 ounce strip was requested medium rare and that's the way it came. Our Veal Marsala was properly sweet but not too much so. The house wines are satisfactory and the selec- tion of desserts varied. We highly recommend the Gateau Chocolat Coin- treau. Devilishly am- brosial. Now, the dancing. It's to the music of Guido Basso and a big - we mean big - band. Now one must live with change. There is ap- parently no longer a piano but rather, an electronic keyboard: the orchestra is miked and the excellent vocalist Rosemary Lynn is rather more a show singer than a band singer. tion of the foregoing is bad, you understand: just different. What remains the same are fine big hand charts and music played in strict tempo. This is a dance or- chestra. All selections are brief and Maestro Basso keeps things moving along nicely. At breaks, there is more dance music over the public address and we even heard a few tangos. Haven't heard a tango played in a club since the Cork Room went under The dancing starts early in the evening - about 7:30 p.m. and winds up early enough that one isn't tired out starting the week. We think it's one of the best things that's happened to our town for quite a whit- and recommend it highly. We should mention in passing that one can at- tend for dancing only. Allow us to close with a question for Guido Basso. Given that the dancing starts about 7:30, when can we expect 7:20 In the Book'. DANCING Quite another kind of dancing is featured during the Caribana festivities. Next Monday through Fri- day, dance cruises are scheduled for the Sam McBride ferry featuring hot calypso, soca, reggae and African High Life. All cruises start at 7:30 p.m. Let's see now. where is our old samba shirt? WINING: Two new Canadian wines have been added to the selections in the Vintage Stores of the LOBO. Both are from Brights and both are 1985. the grape harvest of which Hernan Gras. master winemaker for Blights, has stated to have been of the highest quality ever.

This event, the only one of its kind in Ontario, will feature over 30 antique tractors, 50 antique ON CANVAS: This isn't going to be a piece about our short pugilistic career. Today and tomorrow are the last days to catch the exhibition of paintings by the celebrated Soviet painter Alexander Shilov at Gallery Moos in Yorkville. We recommend a visit. Some might pontificate that the paintings are old fashioned. We suggest that they are familiar, that they are classically simple and simply in the classic mode. Let us strip away excess verbiage and state that the paintings of Mr. Shilov eschew pretension. They are mostly portraits in oil on canvas and are all that the word portrait intends: they portray the subjects and do so realistically. One also admires the firm but gentle brush work of the artist. We suggest that you con- tact Gallery Moos for view- ing hours. They are usually 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. but might be extended for this special exhibition. IN PRINT: Much has been ATitten about composer Richard Wagner but many of the facts. including some in his autobiography are misleading or even wrong. Wagner (Vintage Ran- dom House) by Barry Mill- ington would seem to be the most reliable of all Wagner biographies. He has drawn upon the best previous scholarship and his own not inconsiderable original research to produce this volume. If one has a fault to find, it is that there is almost too much detail ... about those events and happenings already in more or less common ken. And, of motivation there is not even an apparent soupcon. Still, the book is recom- mended not just for those who enjoy and appreciate Wagner but for those who enjoy opera. The first part of the book is devoted to biography the second is a detailed study of the operas. As well. there are three fin appendices. Appendix A is a calendar of the events of Wagner's life with side bar narratives of contemporary events. In 1877 for example. WagneF wrote the libretto for Par- sifal. In the same year, Bruckner's Symphony No. 3 was premiered and Edison invented the phonograph. Appendix B lists all the works of Wagner and Appendix C is a personalia of the most important people in his life. As we say, the book is recommended but students of Wagner are not likely to advance their knowledge of the man. But. oh the enjoy- ment of trying: Diahann' (Ivy Random House) is the story of Carol Diann Johnson. That's nice you say but wooinell is CDJ? Well, try a little transposition and see if you can come up with Diahann Carroll. That's right; this is the biography, with well known ghost Ross Firestone of Diahann Car - gasoline engines and several steam engines, all of Canadian manufacture prior to 1957. Special features include a saw mill and shingle mill, all powered by vintage Canadian engines. Each day will feature a parade of these unique Canadian machines, as well as public log sawing, nail driving and bag -tying competi- tions. To highlight this year's event, the museum will re-create an old time 'Threshing Bee' using a cir- ca 1940 Robert Bell threshing machine. While viewing the ac- tivities of this event enjoy live musical entertain- ment. As well, this year the event is featuring "Multiculturalism -A Rural Perspective". This exhibit introduces the contribu- tions of various cultural groups to rural Ontario. Visit the museum and discover over 30 buildings and displays on the 32 hec- tare site. More than a museum and more than a farm, the Ontario Agricultural Museum is an excellent outing for the en- tire family. The museum, located 8 km west of Milton (from Hwy. 401 take exit 3206 or 312) is open until Sept. 20th from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. dai- ly. Admission is $3 for adults, students $1.50 (6 to 17 years), seniors $1.50 and a family rate of $7.50. Centenary Hospital Gala Li. Gov. Lincoln Alex- ander will be the special guest of honour at Centenary Hospital's Autumn Gala on Sat. Nov. 7th. The black -tie reception and dinner %rill begin at 6 p.m. at the Ramada Renaissance Hotel, 2035 Kennedy Rd.. Scarborough to raise funds for the hospital's recently com- pleted expansion. The evening will feature a champagne reception, five -course dinner, and dancing to the music of the Guido Basso Orchestra. Master of Ceremonies will be CFRB radio personality Henry Shannon. Tickets are $175 per per- son. A tax receipt for the maximum contribution allowed will be issued. Joan Hicks is the Autumn Gala Chairman and honourary patrons include her husband Robert N. D. Hicks. M.P. ; The Hon. Ed- ward Fulton, M.P.P. and Scarborough Mayor Gus Harris. Centenary is a 645 -bed hospital, established in 1967, to serve the residents of Scarborough and sur- rounding communities. Its $30 million expansion in- cludes the new four -storey, 140 -bed Margaret Birch Wing, as well as im- provements to the main hospital. To date 43 million has been raised, through com- munity support, of ............................. roll who appeared recently at The O'Keefe with her fourth husband Vic Damon. It's an interesting book, and much as one can tell, a reasonably straightfor- ward story of her rise to success. In fact, though born in Harlem, Diahann Carroll had a reasonably comfor- table childhood not- withstanding the dif- ficulties of the execrable school system in Harlem. She achieved success early in life and has been suc- cessful in varying degrees ever since. As is so often the case, however, her private life has not always been as hap- py as should have been the case and she seems to have been unlucky in some of her choices of men. Sydney Poitier has aways been egomaniacal and she should have recognized the fact: James Edwards was doomed upon the release of Home of the Brave and Freddie Glussman, as anyone who has ever been to Las Vegas can attest, was never anything more than a slob above his station. And, Centenary's $6 million ex- pansion campaign goal. For further information and Autumn Gala tickets, contact Carole Zorzi at 281-7342.

Far and away the best of them was David Frost and she turned away from him' In her late summer years she seems to have come to terms with herself and is finding the happiness that all of us seek. It's an in- teresting and easy to read book that should find popular acceptance. And, speaking of popularity, we cannot resist remarking that her high point of success is con- sidered to be her role as Dominique Devereaux on Dynasty. New York's Per- sian Room with Emil Col- eman to Dynasty with Joan Collins: that's "the glory and good of art"? To be fair though, we should continue with Browning and remark that "White shall not neutralize the Black."

It was accepted by Dean Paquette, Assis- tant Deputy Minister Responsible for Public Safety, on behalf of the Hon. Ken Keyes, Solicitor General of Ontario. The funds will be used by the province for a wide range of emergency preparedness projects, including training for handling of dangerous goods incidents and developing plans to meet the effects of a nuclear power plant accident. The JEPP enables the federal government to contribute to or undertake jointly with the provinces or territories emergency preparedness projects that enhance the na- tional response capability.

July 22,1961 by Jerry Hudson Emerson Fittipaldi drove his Marlboro - sponsored March 87C CH to victory in the second an- nual Molson Indy at the CNE grounds last weekend. Fittipaldi almost didn't take the win, as Danny Sullivan's Miller American 86 March touched his rear wheels in Turn 9, one of the course's fastest corners, on the final lap. Sullivan spun but recovered to take 2nd, with last year's winner, Bobby Rahal of Dublin, Ohio finishing 3rd. MOLSON INDYACTION Willowdale native Scott Goodyear had his highest finish yet coming in 8th overall, nine laps behind the winner. In an interview before the race, Goodyear said "I just want to finish the race and get some championship points. I'll be real careful out there." The young rookie -driver collected $24,480 for his ef- forts, not too bad a payday. Another Toronto area driver, Ludwig Heimrath Jr., who comes from Scar- borough had less luck than Goodyear, going out of the race on the 17th lap with gearbox problems. Heimrath and his Macken- zie Financial Lola 1'6700 machine have only finished one race of the eight run so Drum & Bugle Corps The Cardinals of Scar- borough Drum and Bugle Corps are hosting the 1987 Ontario Provincial Drum and Bugle Corps Cham- pionships on Sun.

For example, for putting in another bathroom, you'll require the expertise of a plumber and electrician. Selecting the right contrac- tor and sub -contractors may help ensure it all comes together as smoothly as possible. ..Choose contractors who are experienced in the kind of work you deed done,'. McBain says. "The best way to fired those kind of people is through referrals by your friends and neighbours.

They are essential in obtaining quotes from contractor's or getting ap- provals from city hall. If you are not good at this sort of thing, hire an ar- chitect or designer to do it for you. - Before you get the ball rolling you would be well advised to pay for a con- sultation with an ex- perienced architect or designer. Take this profes- sional through your house and explain your ideas. You will get a lot of valuable advice and odor mation. - Consider doing more than one job at a time. It could save you money. For ex- ample, if you are putting up new drywall, it's an ideal opportunity to install copper piping or insulate the out- side walls. - Don't be ..misled„ by attractive low quotes from contrac- tors. In the long run, you'll get what you paid for. - Write everything down. All the project details including pricing, payment schedule, plans, material details and responsibilities should be put into a contract. Make sure both you and the con- tractor sign the con- tract. - Avoid temptation. Don't cut corners or use inferior materials. It's false economy. Remember, your house is a long term investment. - Check out your local municipal bylaws to ensure you have all the necessary permits and that you aren't breaking any bylaws. For example, you might realize that your planned new addition is too close to your tot line. McBain says if you follow these simple guidelines, chances are you will feel good about the results. Once your project is com- pleted you might consider entering it in the Ontario Renews Awards. All en- tries, no matter bow small or large, are considered.

He1pus ONTARIO break MAFCH .. � �s the w� bonds A&UrFUND of disability. Report from Queen's Park .• .. By George•Ashe. MPP Durham West P.C.'S FIGHT FOR RETIRED ONTARIANS Bill 170, An Act to Revise the Pension Benefits Act, brings into law a pension strategy pioneered by Ontario Pro- gressive Cooaervatives. Too many Ontanans have no financial plans for their reUremeit years. Only 37% of workers are covered by private pension plans. By 2001, experts estimate 43% of the population will be over age 45. This means an even grater strain will be plac- ed an government pension programs. Hoar can we ensure tomorrow's seniors have the chance to enjoy financial security? In the early '90's the provincial government began a study of the future of pension programs. The over-all goal of this study was not to make private pensions more expen- sive, but to ensure more Ontarians have the chance to par- ticipate in private programs. Because pension reform involved responsibilities of the federal government, a consensus was needed to aid worker mobility by ensuring identical pension rights across the na- tion. In 1964, the Ontario goverment led by Larry Grossman, then the Ontario Treasurer. reacted an agreement with Ot- tawa, and the other provinces, that would give workers greater flexibility with their pension benefits: *All workers, including most part-time workers, should be able to join a pension plan after two years of service; *Pension benefits should be locked in after only two years of membership in a pension plan, reduced from earlier rules that locked in benefits once a contributor reached 45 years and had been contributing for to years: 'After two years workers should be eligible to transfer their contributions and their employer's contributions to another plan when they leave the company; 'Employees must contribute at least 50% of the cost of the pension benefit: 'Workers should be able to choose early retirement and receive an immediate, though reduced, pension; *Survivor benefits should not be terminated as the result of remarriage. What about inflation? Following the period of high in- terest rates that marked the early '80's, the provincial government noticed that pension plans received unex- pected surpluses. Generally, these earned surpluses were either taken back by the company or bargained away to improve the pension benefits of current employees. Retired workers were not usually represented in this process. We did not think this was fair. The workers who had deferred income into company pension plans deserved to enjoy a share of any unexpected surpluses resulting from high interest rates. When Ontario Progressive Conservatives first spoke of inflation protection, we were talking about the protection of the pension investment made by retired workers. The Liberals have interpreted inflation protection to mean indexing pensions to inflation. We amended Bill 170 to ensure there will be full public and legislative discussion when they announce their indexing policy. The government's pension reform package does not go far enough. The Liberals must take a clear stand on index- ing pensions. They must also ensure retired workers enjoy a fair share of pension benefits.
