Of Education Hightlights Students Entertain Marie Koster. Principal of William Dunbar PS, was present to introduce teacher Keith Robson and students from the school's instrumental band. The grade eight youngsters played several selections for the trustees. They were congratulated on their talent and wished well in the upcoming Kiwanis Festival. Education Reek Hailed Under the direction of teacher liana Lafranier, a choir of students from Athabasca PS and various staff from throughout the Durham Board system sang the Education Week song written by former music consultant Peggy Dtynan and her daughter Judith. Elementary co- ordinator Tinsie Simpson and secondary co-ordinator Karen Sheppard told trustees of the many ac- tivities to take place in celebration of Education Week 1989. The theme, "Partners for Success", was stressed and par- ticipants demonstrated the many partnerships ex- perienced throughout the system. The presenters were thanked for the work they had done in develop- ing Durham's unique ap- proach to the annual event. Trees Presented Bill Slute of the City's Parks Section was in- troduced to trustees by Dr. Harry Vail, Superintendent of Schools. Bill outlined the many school park and naturalization plantings to be undertaken during Ar- bor Week in Oshawa, May 1, to 5, 1989. Each of the trustees received a Norway Spruce seedling in honour of the occasion. Intenr'st in the week has grown con- siderably over recent years and Bill Slute con- gratulated the board on the level of participation by Oshawa elementary and secondary schools. Non Affiliate Wage In- crease Granted Vice Chairman Ian Brown reported on wage in- creases to be granted to the board's non affiliate employees. As well as ad- justments to the benefit package, employees will receive an interim wage in- crease of 5-1'2%, effective March 1, 1969. This figure will be adjusted up or down next fall when the annual HAY data is received by the board. Committee Changes Ap- proved The board accepted with regrets the resignation of Sharon Pinch, represen- tative of the Durham Voice for Hearing Impaired Children, from the Special Education Advisory Com- mittee.

Direct Energy Marketing Praised The Durham Board's contractual agreement to purchase gas directly and in bulk from a supplier in Saskatchewan was discuss- ed. Durham was one of the first Ontario school boards to take advantage of this option. Trustees expressed praise for the arrangement and noted that it has been responsible for con- siderable energy savings for the board. Capital Allocation Ap- provals Received Disappointment was ex- pressed at the capital allocations approved last week by the Ministry of Education. Durham had re- quested approval of pro - jests worth $34,945,500. in 1990, $32,350,700. in 1991 and ;45,802,880. in 1992. The Ministry granted approval to projects worth only $7,692,258. in 1990, ;13,659,000. in 1991 and $16,601,000. in 1992, plus $1,608,000. for child care facilities. A total of four elementary schools, part of a secondary school and six school sites will receive funding. Trustees feel these projects are inade- quate to address the critical accommodation need in Durham Board schools. ens-+eea PRINTING_CzsI Serving the Community for24 Years! Jeer At Chairman At Complex, by Gay Abbate Pickering residents have told regional politicians just how they feel about their plan to put another garbage dump in north Pickering. More than 1,500 residents turned out last week to a meeting organized by the region at the Pickering Recreation Complex. The residents, waving signs against the proposed dump and paper seagulls hooted, jeered and heckled Regional Chairman Gary Herrema and Councillor John Aker, chairman of the region's waste manage- ment committee, who with Herrema endorsed the dump per. Residents took Aker to task calling his behaviour towards them condescen- ding. "It's disgraceful that these people who are about to ruin our lives are laughing and snaking flip- pant speeches," said Whitevale resident Richard Jones. Aker repeatedly told the boisterous crowd that it was "a pretty good crowd" and "I sort of like this Jones' wife, Marueen, said the rats would not only be in Whitevale as a result of the dump but were also at the meeting only these were "two -legged with shirts and ties on". Herrema told the crowd that there is nowhere else to put their garbage other than the proposed P1 site on Altona Rd. between (Fourth and fifth concession roads. However, this is on the doorstep of the hamlet of Whitevale. Residents say that hamlet along with the hamlets of Cherrywood, Greenwood and Brougham will be destroyed by the gyp• Durham Council will be voting on the proposed dump site this week. The site will be a join Metro Toronto' Durham dump with Metro paying the region some $26.5 million. Chairman Herrema said there is a garbage crisis because the region will have no place to put its gar- bage once the Brock West dump, owned by Metro, is full next spring. The PI site would be temporary until 1996 when a long-term site is to be in place. Student Recognition Night District 17 of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OtSSFT) and The Durham Board of Education are jointly sponsoring a Stu- dent Recognition Night to be held at Harwood Secon- dary School on Thurs. May 25th at 7:30 p.m. The ceremony was in- itiated by OSSTF to celebrate Excellence in Public Education. Up to three students from each of Durham's 18 public secon- dary schools will be lonoured for their con- tributions to school life and for achievement of per- sonal excellence. The award winners were chosen by their teachers according to the following criteria: a student who gives of himself for the good of the whole school community or the larger community; a student who has achieved personal ex- cellence through unique, distinguished effort; a stu- dent who has overcome obstacles to achieve per- sonal success; a student who may not be a future Wader of society but who will certainly leave it bet- ter than it is; a good citizen; a student known by staff and students as the one to count on when they need help or enthusiastic support, a dependable, con- scientious worker. Don't Want Landfill Site Pickering Council has recommended that Premier David Peterson be requested to refuse to allow those provincial lands designated as "Pl" site to be used for a landfill site. Council stated that the West Duffins Cheek and Petticoat Creek systems Will be severely impacted environmentally by a land- fill site, and that the quality of life of the residents in the hamlets of Whitevale and Cherryw ood and the sur- rounding rural area will be lowered due to the effects of a massive landfill site. The "Pl" site is located on lands owned by the Pro- vince of Ontario and were to remain agricultural until at least the year 2000 when it would be used for hous- ing. The province has given the Town of Pickering a grant to develop the hamlet of Whitevale as a Heritage Conservation Area. Council has requested a meeting with Premier Peterson to discuss the ramifications of the landfill site in Pickering, and has requested that the follow- ing persons be invited to at- tend this meeting: Hon. James Bradley, MPP Norah Stoner, two members of Pickering - Ajax Citizens Together (PACT) and all members of Pickering Council. New School Is Highbush The unnamed Highbush elementary school in Pickering will be officially named Highbush PS. Although the actual history of the name is unknown, the area west of White's Road and north of Shep- pard Ave. has long been called Highbush. Page 2 THE NEWS/POST Wed. May 17, 1989 Opinion a page for expression for you and us About Taxes by Bob Watson The municipal property tax bills are coming to homes and commercial operations now and the impact of the largest increase in taxes for many years is hitting the tax- payer. Unfortunately, Metro Council had no alternative when the provincial government decided on its reduction in payments in the area of roads and education. This week we will be hearing how the Ontario government is going to budget its next year and no doubt Ontarians will hear some more bad news - not good! The cold hard facts are that the costs of the two big items - health and education - are mounting rapidly and so more tax revenue is necessary to pay the bills. Neither of these areas of expense can be cut back because they are the top two necessary to citizens of the province. It would be nice, though, if the Ontario government in col- lecting its gasoline taxes would keep this money in a separate account for use on roads and not lump it in with other general revenue. Highways around and in Metro Toronto are sadly behind schedule if we are to handle the traffic flows. The time has come, we believe, when all levels of govern- ment are going to have to re -assess what kind of tax pays for what expenditure. Roads should be paid for from taxes on cars and gasoline. Health should come out of income taxes and retail sales taxes should go to general expen- ditures. But don't hold your breath. The federal government has an excellent commercial on radio about the deficit - but un- fortunately it doesn't seem to want to do what the commer- cial says - balance the annual budget. Hydro Sponsors Student Engineering Compen- tion Awards ceremonies for the Ontario engineering design competition were held in March at Queen's University in Kingston. This annual competition. now celebrating its tenth year, involves engineering students from 10 Ontario universities. As a sponsor, Ontario Hydro takes part in the judging and furances the awards in one of four categories. corporate design. Student groups at the University of Guelph won first and third prizes in the corporate design category, and a student group from McMaster took second. Welcome To Canada This is a letter to immigrants and refugees: Welcome to Canada. I must assume that you came here because you felt it offers you a better way of life than you left. I would like to ask a few favours in return for your new life. If you come from a country where violence and hatred were prevalent, please leave it behind you; we do not need nor want your problems in our country. If your religion is different from mine feel free to practice it but do not object to mine or those on which Canada was built. If you wish to teach your children about your• former tentage that is your choice. Do not ask taxpayers to fund it or have it taught in our schools. If you wish them to learn the heritage of their new country perhaps we could help with that. Please do not come to our country and expect everything to be completely fair or perfect. Try to have a little understanding for us whose ancestors settled this country. You corse and your ways are different from ours. Perhaps we feel threatened by you. Perhaps we see our heritage being thretened to protect yours. I truly believe that the biggest sacrifice must come from you, not me. You left your country. I didn't. You see, we keep hearing we must become multicultural and this sug- gests to us our heritage is unimportant. This frightens us for we love our country and believe we do have a heritage worth preserving. If you experience racism make the problem known and we will all work together to try and solve it. but do not choose sides according to colour, race or religion. We must all worst together to eliminate this problem. When you criticize what is bad in my country, season it with what is good also. My wish for you is that you find the life you are seeking. My wish as a Canadian is to hear refugees and immigrants, once they become Canadian citizens, answer the question "What are you?" with the response "I am Canadian, no hyphen necessary' J.

Ontario's Electricitv Use During March, Ontario Hydro supplied 12.8 million megawatt hours of electricity to the Ontario electrical system, five percent more than in March, 1968. The 22,030 megawatt peak for the month was over eight percent more than the highest demand recorded in the same month of last year. These higher than average in- creases were due in part to this year's cold March weather. $1.8 Million For Child Care The Hon. Perrin Beatty, Minister of National Health and Welfare, has announced the approval of four projects in the Metro Toronto area under the Child Care Initiatives Fund for a total of $1,804,872 in funding.

Approximately 60 workshops will be held for day care professionals across the province of Ontario to provide them with skills and training materials so that they can go back to their own communities and train others The Durham College of Applied Arts and Technology in Oshawa will receive:99;i,055 over the next 3 years to open an Early Childhood Education Resource Centre and a model community child care centre in the Pickering -Ajax area. The project will provide training of child care workers. a resource for parents and spaces for children. The Ontario Coalition for Better Child Care in Toronto will receive $224,040 for a community and parent education training project. The coalition plans to work closely with a province -wide advisory committee to develop practical guidelines and resource material that will help groups plan, start-up and operate community based child care pro- grams - The Ryerson Polytechincal Institute in Toronto will receive $162,280 over the next nine months to develop a series of vides for parents on the subject of choosing a day care. Six videos will be produced to help parents choose and monitor appropriate care for their children. The Ontario government will be providing funding in the amount of $40.000 towards the cost of producing this series. We were so young, And full of life. Nothing would stop us, We became man and wife. There was laughter, And there were tears, We pinched pennies But we had no fears. The years took their toll, And changes crept in. Little people around, And all the good things. But now - You are still with me - Forever. Catherine Latham UI Reforms a Sham DAVtO SOMERVILLE Canada's unemployment insurance system is in desperate need of major surgery but unfortunately recent federal government announcements delivered only a band-aid. Studies have consistently shown that the UI program saps self-reliance, inhibits employment in entry level and lower wage jobs, substantially prolongs unemployment, creates unstable employment patterns and inhibits migration from depressed areas. Canada's $11 billion Ul programme also puts a tremendous tax load on the Canadian economy, which lessens our competitiveness and curbs real job creation. Ul's faults are not a secret. In the last five years four studies agreed that Ul had serious problems. Cost Shifted But after years of dithering, the government chose to introduce only minor changes. Benefits were reduced somewhat and eligibility requirements were slightly toughened. The federal government's share of the programme costs was shifted to employees and employers, who arc still burdened with a badly flawed system. Under the government's reforms for instance, Ul will continue to serve as a guaranteed annual income in those regions with high unemployment. As well, workers in these areas will still be able to collect benefits for 50 weeks after working for only 21. They will be able to collect 39 weeks' benefits after 10 weeks' work. Consequently, the poverty traps will remain. Workers who quit their jobs will continue to receive benefits, which is grossly unfair. Those workers who persevere in jobs they don't like or who wait until they find another job before quitting, shouldn't have to subsidize others who walk away from their jobs. That makes no more sense paying compensation to someone who burned down his own house. Reform heeded The time for dithering is over. Tlx: federal government should fundamentally reform the unemployment insurance programme because it's the right thing to do. Doing so will create jobs and make Canada more competitive. We know how to cure the ills of Canada's UI system; all we lack are politicians with the courage to administer the proper medicine.

The public also took the opportunity to express their displeasure at the ci- ty's reductions in the library board's book budget for the new district library. Richard Goldsmith, Chairman of the Library Board, referred to the cuts as a "challenge" explain- ing that the four councillors on the board had endorsed the board's request for fun- ding uerding to build up the collec- tion of materials but that this was not enough to gain support from the remain- ing council. Two members of council present, Sherene Shaw and Rat Watson, encouraged the audience to contact Scarborough City Council to voice their dissatisfac- tion. The meeting was chaired by the library board's chief executive officer, Peter Bassnett, who presented an outline of the project. Other members of the board's senior staff gave details on materials selection, the services to be offered and other preparations for the new library.

The British entry of Belinda Hatley and Sergiu Pobereznic from the Royal Ballet were. well .. typical- ly British. What they did, they did well and they had obviously been coached and directed to avoid the spectacular in favour of the relatively safe and sure. In another competition, it might have worked- On this night however. Terp- sicliot+e was smiling upon the two eventual winners. Celia Franca was a most witty Mistress of Ceremonies and at one point even teased the audience with a good natured and to ngue- In-cheek tap dance of oh so brief duration. Only one thing could possibly have -Warred the evening and that was the en- thusiasm of the au- dience. It is an old plea of ours but we repeat it now: for heaven's sake hold applause until a dancer has com- pleted the dance or at least the significant measure. At one point in the evening Mr. Legate made a rather bad landing. In the post performance media conference he simply 282-2144 There's a new girl in town!

Still, if that is the only complaint one can find, then the world truly is a fine place for lovers of ballet. ON STAGE: In the twilight of his career the late Paul Robeson would appear not in recital but rather in An Evening with Paul Robeson. He would sing, of course, and though his voice had lost its once magnificent power, it could still thrill. During his performance, however, he would deliver his thoughts and views of life under communism and why he had espoused it. It was all very interesting but it wasn't what the audience had come to hear. People wanted to hear Mr. Robeson singing and reciting, not delivering polemics on a way of life that he himself ultimately abandoned. Now, in the dawn of their careers, we have six awesomely talented young people touring in a work titled "i.d." The Hour Company is the theatre and education arm of the Canadian Stage Com- pany. "i.d." is being presented at the Berkeley Street Theatre. It is a short, brilliantly written (in ensemble I work that just Marty escapes slander in its supposed ]ilea for police accountability and for fair treatment of minorities. Richard Greenblatt directs firmly and the young cast is never -well, hardly everlpAlty of ex- cess. In fact the production is a marvel of what theatre discipline is or should be all about. Blame it on age, however, but we just couldn't warm to the theme. Yes. there are, always have been and always will be social in- justices but one doesn't need the theatre to discover them anymore than we ever needed a once excellent singer and actor to talk about life in Russia. At the conclusion of the one act play the cast engages in rap with the au- dience and it's all probably stimulating but, in our view, not theatre. Are we burying our head in the sand' We hope not. One thing we will not do however is hesitate in sug- gesting that the six cast members deserve future stardom. Here are their names; remember them well .. Damon D'Oliveira, Denyse Karn, Jane Luk, Alisa Palmer, Dawn Roach and Guillermo Verdechia. What talent! ON RECORD: When young pop music fans comment that they don't understand jazz or that it's "too complicated" they are confirming, albeit unknowingly, that the sounds of Rode with which they have grown up are more electronic noises than structured compositions. For those, however, who know and appreciate good jazz or are willing to learn, here are two excellent LPs for one's delectation. Doggin' Around was recorded by Guitarist Herb Ellis and bassist Red Mit- chell live at The Loa (great draught) in Santa Monica in March, 1988. The two masters play some reliable standards - Sweethearts on Parade, I'm Confessin', Lady Be Good, Over the Rainbow et al -and make the listener think he is hearing them for the first time. They sound simple, even simplistic and yet a discerning ear will audit a sophistication that belies the sound. Mean To Me for an exam- ple starts with a switch; Ellis "walks" the guitar, Mitchell plays melodic lead; but listen for his perfect pitch on the octave leaps. Just great! So too are all of the other cuts on this excellent album. For more great jazz, though superficially more sophisticated, we suggest George Shearing and Hank Jones The Spirit of 176. Here, the two masters of piano. and with no rhythm accompaniment comple- ment and extend each other to heights of jazz ar- tistry all too rarely ex- perienced these days. We can think of no higher praise than to say that these two giants meld together so beautifully that one has difficulty in separating what would usually be two distinct keyboard styles. Personal favourites' We'd have to go with Star Eyes and Confirmation. The latter is a Charlie Parker composition. We've always felt that Charlie Parker should be better remembered as a com- poser rather than a hop headed though brilliant musician. Messrs Shearing And Jones have now con- firmed that such will be the case. So, young jazz aspirants; if you want to learn what jazz is all about, try these two excellent albums. They're both on Concord. Oh, and for those who might not have realized it, The Spirit of 176 refers to the number of keys on two pianos. In an earlier column we promised a full review of Keeping You On My Mind the single just released by the fledgeling GCR Records and featuring singer Robert Riley. Well, here it is. It's a good record but not the world beater that it might have been. We stand by our earlier statement that young Mr. Riley could -should -be the next Bobbie Curtola. His voice is true, soft and almost sweet. Those however, are not qualities that cut it on a record that is quite simply overproduc- ed. Yes, we said over- produced. The orchestrations and vocal arrangements are so lush that they almost over- power the doggedly pure voice of Mr. Riley. Our suggestion is that he eschew lush and espouse Spartan in the manner of the latter day Willie Nelson. Keeping You On My Mind is a good freshman ef- fort nevertheless and one confidently expects the sophomore offering to be even better. ON SCREEN: The Cineplex Odeon 'Theatres present Scandal Amicus Presents Coward's Present Laughter Amicus Productions, in its 11th year of operation, will present Noel Coward's "Present Laughter" as its contribution to the revival of the works of Sir Noel Coward in Toronto this summer. Present Laughter, a popular autobiographical work, was first performed in 1946 when Coward was at the peak of his popularity and his powers. The play depicts a few hectic weeks in the life of Garry Fssendine, enduring star of the English com- mercial theatre. While he prepares for a tar of Africa he is beset by his producers, his mistresses, his ex-wife, his secretary, and his servants, all of them etched with Coward's comic skill. Amicus Productions will be performing Present Laughter at Fairview Library Theatre, 35 Fair- view Mall Dr. nightly from May 17th to 20th and May 24th to 27th at 8 p.m. There will be a Sunday matinee May 21st at 2 p.m. The night of May 17th will be preview night with tickets available at half price. For tickets and infor- mation call 491-8741. starting this Friday. This is the screen story of the Pro- fumo Affair, the sex scan- dal of Britain in the sixties that virtually brought down the MacMillan Govern- ment. We haven't seen it yet but it's hard to see tow it could miss. None the less we recom- mend reading An Affair of State by Phillip Knightley ( Jonathan Cape) . It might now be in soft cover but if not, ask for it at your public library. It's a tracker jack book and a perfect adjunct we should think to the mo- tion picture. ART SEEN : The eluant Brownstone Hotel has another art ex- hibit currently on view featuring the sports pain- tings and drawings of a group of artists represented collectively as Sparts-Art in Sports. Perhaps it's the too cutesy name but the exhibit has left us underwhelmed. It's colourful enough but there is a certain slickness about most of the works that reminds one of glossy magazine illustrations. ( Come to think of it, that's probably where many of them are destined.) Two of them actually and unabashedly employed speed lines! Art is art one supposes but our art teacher of many years ago would not have tolerated such an eccen- tricity from even a primary student. We enjoyed attendance at the opening, the works notwithstanding, because of the opportunity to hear a pianistlshnger hither to now unknown to us. Her name is Andr6e Bernard and the power of her sing- ing, even in a lounge at- mosphere, is that of an ear- ly Ginette Reno.

The board believes that this important decision should be left to locally elected trustees. The Pro- vincial Government should not mandate local boards to spend education funds on programs that are not in- itiated by local trustees who have been elected for this very purpose said Chairman Dianne Williams. The decision as to travel &physical and healthlth education, Highland Creek Women's Institute education, Centennial Rouge U noted Church lig11111AI The United Church Women of Centennial - Rouge held their meeting on May 9, at 7:30 p.m. in the hall. The meeting was brought to order by President Joyce Helyar and commenced by repeating the "Prayer of the Least Can" in unison. The worship service taken from the book, "More Graham Crackers, Galoshes and God" took us through a day with a busy housewife. Everything she attempted ended in disaster. She recalled at the end of this busy day that the work of her previous day had gone well. She remembered the day before that God had put this thought in her mind, "Ibis is the day the Lord has trade. Let us re- joice and be glad." This thought came bock to her everytime something might go amiss. She forgot to rejoice and be glad on this day and so resolved she would not forget to say those beautiful words. "'Ibis is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad..' She asked the Lord if she ever did forget that He would please remind her. Jo Taylor, a librarian at the Port Union library was introduced by Joyce Helyar and gave a very in- teresting talk about dif- ferent books available in the library and had a large display of the books that she recommended - Molly Daniels extended appreciation of the group to Jo for her address. Following the address the regular business was transacted. Some important dates to remember - Scarborough Presbyterial at St. John's United Church at 7 p.m., May 29. Ina Grafton Gage holds an Open House the after- noon of June 8th. Atthe June meeting the members will meet for din- ner prior to the meeting, location to be decided. Everyone was glad to see Peggy Colley and Lesley Morris back after their il- lness. The meeting adjourned after the Mizpah Benedic- tion. A social time followed with a delicious lunch serv- ed by Eve Forster and Eleanor McBride. New members were welcomed to the group. The members of the in- stitute met at Centennial - Rouge United Church Hall on May 10 at 1:30 p.m. with 25 members present. The business session was chaired by Mary Miller and she reminded the members of activities, with which the institute is required to assist in the York East District. The District Annual Meeting is to be held at Scarborough Junction United Church on May 18 at 9:15 a.m. and the Women's Institute display at the Scarborough Town Centre will be on May 26 and 27. Johanna Van Ryn in- troduced Silvia Canzian. a public health nurse with the Scarborough Health ;Department who gave a very interesting and infor- mative talk about high blood pressure, emphasiz- ing how stress is a great factor in this problem. A question period followed the address. Johanna and Mary Miller both extended a vote of thanks to the speaker. Everyone enjoyed a social time and delicious lunch served by Doris Arkwright, Clara Iahmer and Evelyn Dempsey. All women are invited to become interested in the work of the Women's In- stitute and join a branch located in their area. BUN KING BAKERY w� A CANADIAN FRANCHISE OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK Baked...

At Mosport The British Automobile Racing Club, Ontario Cen- tre, celebrates its 30th year in motor racing by hosting the 1989 Spring Sprints at Mosport Part recently. As usually occurs in the early spring race meetings, Scarborough's Ludwig Heimrath was out testing his Porsche 944 Tur- bo, preparatory to the start of the Rothmans Porsche Turbo Cup schedule. Heimrath easily won both of his races, matched up against GM Camaros and Firebirds, Hondas and even a Datsun in the Special GT event, and against the same cars plus BMW's, Corvettes and other Porsche 944's in the GTI, GT2, Grand Sport contest. In the latter race it was touch and go in Corder 1; the track was damp, and with cold tires Ludwig got completely sideways com- ing out of it, but nicely caught the car instead of the guard-rail and pressed on for the win. By the end of the weekend, his times were down to 1:35.060 for fastest lap. Following Heimrath home in that race were Thomas Christoff of Willowdale, Larry Caruso from Thornhill and Toron- to's Len Campbell, all in Porsches 944's. Campbell also won an open -wheel race for Formula 4's and F2000's in his Swift. B. A. R. C.'s next races will be held at Mosport on the weekend of June 10! 11. Wed.

May 17. 1989 THE NEWSiPOST Page 13 Metro Council News Battle Over Rouge Metro Toronto Council has voted to oppose Scar- borough Council's desire to have the Rouge Valley designated as "regional natural environment" in- stead of "regional open space". Metro also wants golf copses and sports fields included in the uses in the Rouge which Scar- borough opposes. Metro Councillor Bob Sanders, who represents the Rouge Valley area, tried to get Metro Council to support the Scarborough resolution but failed to get enough support - The Rouge area is being left up in the air as the regional chairmen decide on a future garbage dump .and the M2 and M3 sites in this area are still possible sites. Metro Councillor Brian Ashton said that Mother Nature was waiting for the Metro chairman to make a decision. The Chairman, Alan Tonks, gave an impassion- ed speech and said "when I read that 15W people have Durham Chairman Gary Herrema under siege. that's not Mother Nature, that's tyranny!" Mr. Tonks asked for a deferral of the matter because no decision has been made by the regional chairmen on a no dump site to handle the 1-1/2 million tans of waste. "Tbe federal govern- ment does not want a land- fill site in Pickering and the provincial government says it wants housing in the Rouge," said Tonks. Mayor Joyce Trimmer gave a long speech on the topic and said she backed the resolution of Councillor Sanders, which backed Scarborough's position on the Rouge. E.MTC' in Rouge The battle about the East Metro Transportation Cor- ridor in the Rouge Valley raged at Metro Toronto Council last week. Metro Councillor Bob Sanders said he didn't know why a major highway was needed in this area and fells that arterial roads would be satisfactory to solve the flow of traffic. After debate raged on for some time motions by Councillors Moscoe, Har- rison, Cavalier and Sanders were all defeated and the issue lies in mid-air with no decision being made. Day Care Ceutres Despite a cut back in pro- vincial funds for the opera- tion of municipally - operated child care cen- tres, Metro Council in a resolution by Councillor Bob Sanders, amended by a resolution by Councillor Joan King, has approved of keeping the existing day care centres funded but no new ones will be taken on. Greater Priority Needed Metro Councillor Nor- man Gardner, says that the York Technology Luncheon May 24 The May 24th luncheon of the York Technology Association will have the Hon. Harvie Andre, Minister of Regional In- dustrial Expansion as guest speaker. The luncheon will be held from 12:30 to 2 p.m. at the Chimo Hotel, 7095 Wood- bine Ave. Members pay $20 for luncheon and non- members pay $30. Reser- vations in advance are necessary and should be placed to 477-1727. provincial governmdnt would save millions of dollars if daycare was given greater priority. "Reduced funding for daycare by the Govern- ment of Ontario is a reflec- tion of a general provincial cutback of funds to Metro Toronto for the provision of services. As a result, Metropolitan Toronto is be- ing forced to 'prop up' the daycare system on its own without allowing for expan- sion. It is estimated that there is a waiting list of 4,000 for the daycare spaces which presently ex- ist," says Gardner. He added that a decision was made recently by the provincial government to restrict its funding of daycare to 4 percent on ex- isting spaces. This is in contrast to the actual amount of 10 percent which is needed by daycare operators to keep pace and catch-up to the rate of infla- tion. The provincial govern- ment, notes Gardner, pro- vides 30 percent of the fun- ding for General Welfare Assistance and ".. many mothers now on General Welfare Assistance would not need General Welfare Assistance if daycare fun- ding were available so they could return to work." Councillor Gardner has sent a letter to all metro area members of the pro- vincial legislature and asks them "point blank" whether they favour the ex- pansion of funding for daycare by the province.

May 17, 1989 tra-v Copenhagen's OffbeatiMuseums Denmark's capital has a fascinating history and the best way to learn about it, .is to visit the city's many museums. Offbeat and in- teresting, the museums are in all kinds of locations - from a manor house garden to a 16th century castle. Not all are in town. Some are just outside, but they can easily be reached by car or by public transportation. A good starting point is the By museum (city museum). The exhibits here give visitors a good overview of Copenhagen's history going back to Vik- ing times. There's also a small collection of memorabilia devoted to Soren Kierkegaard. A fam- ed philosopher and theologian. Kierkegaard was a brilliant man whose innovative ideas created a sensation in the early 1800s. Today he is considered to be one of the pioneers of Protestantism. Danish craftsmen have also left their mark on Copenhagen's history. The Bing and Grondahl Museum is filled with porcelain dating back to 1853, the year the factory was founded. The blue and white china first made its debut outside Denmark in 1900 during the Paris Ex- hbitiom an event -filen propelled the porcelain makers to worldwide fame. Equally renowned, but in the field of Wvawnithirng, is George Jensen. The George Jensen Museum highlights the work of this renowned jeweller and his contemporaries - Johan Rohde, Sigvaard Ber- nadotte, Arno Malinowski and Harald Nielson. The jewelry on day covers the period from 1904-1940. but the designs are so futuristic that they still look modern, almost half a century later. In Denmark, innovative designs are part of the modern architectural scene. Office buildings, houses and restaurants are bright and functional, with clean, simple lines which are easy on the eye. Even Copenhagen's mailboxes seem to have been careful- ly styled by a designer. Painted a cheery, bright red, they are embellished with a yellow posthorn and a crown, symbol of the Royal family. Denmark's mail system was established in 1624 by King Christian IV and for more than three centuries, mail carriers wore the military style uniforms of the House of Oldenburg, several of which are on display in the Post and Telegraph Museum.

For all your travel n@ ds "We'll show you what Travel Service really means" 284-8300 MORNINGSIDE MALL The mail entrance beside Woolco, Upper Level OPEN 9,30 am. -8:30 p.m. Mon. - Fri 10 am. - 5 p.m. sourdaY» In the early days, mail was delivered by horsedrawn coach whose arrival and departure was signalled by the blowing of brass horns. (At the museum. visitors can press buttons to hear what they sounded like.) It's a long time since the mail was delivered by horse but Copenhagen's postmen still make their rounds by bicy- cle. The mail coaches were ;plain compared to the gilt - encrusted carriages on display at the Museum of Royal Stables and Coaches in Christianborg Castle. These carriages are used by Queen Margrethe on state occasions and the museum is filled with uniforms and ornately embellished harnesses. The castle was named after Christian IV, Den- mark's "designer" king who planned Copenhagen's Stock Exchange and the baroque Rosenborg Palace, which bosses the glittering Crown Jewels. Simpler, but in their own way more memorable, ex hibits can be seen in Frihedsmuseet (The Resistance Museum) at Cnhrchillpar ken which is near the statue of the Little Mermaid. This collection documents Denmark's struggle to throw off the shackles of Nazi rule dur- ing Wold War II and the harrowing items on display - censored letters, illegal books and photographs of overcrowded prison cells and starving Jewish Prisoners - send shivers down one's spine In a much lighter vein is Louisiana, a museum of modern art which is in Humlebaek, 35 kilometres north of Copenhagen, along what is known as "Den- mark's Riviera". A visit to this museum can be com- bined with Kronborg Castle at nearby Helsingor - an easy daytrip from the city, by train or by car. Motorists can take Strand- vejen, the road which hugs the coast. The shore road is dotted with large homes ( many wealthy Danes have country estates here) and there are spectacular views over the water. Louisiana was built in the 19th century by Alexander Brun, a Master of the Royal Hunt. It was named after his wife, but nobody knows which one, because Brun was married three times and all of his wives were called Louise! The art is displayed in his former manor house as well as in the gardens around it, which are dotted with giant sculptures. There are works by Ernst, Calder and Giacometti. A Henry Moore figure reclines by the main en- trance. Kronborg Castle, the "Elsinore" of Shakespeare's Hamlet, is probably the most celebrated of Denmark's Sail into adventure when you explore the coastal waters of Prince Edward Island. The 1,100 miles of shoreline that surround this beautiful island Province offer endless scope for every imaginable form of aquatic sport. Marinas in Summerside and Charlottetown beckon to sailors of small craft from around eastern Canada. Dozens of various sized bays ( along with ideal wind conditions) provide some of the best board sailing in all of North America. Tidal rivers and estuaries ensure miles of water for canoeing. kayaking and rowing. Or stop at one of the many harbours or fishing villages and join a deep sea fishing charter. And if you prefer quiet adventure, try your luck at beachcombing for shells and driftwood. (P. E. I. Canada, Tourism . John Sylvester photo) The Summer Side by Kumari Campbell The Town of Summerside is believed to owe its name to its location on the south or 'Summer' Side of a nar- row isthmus connecting western Prince Edward Island, with the rest of the province. In fact, if you look at daily temperatures for various locations in the province, there does seem to be some basis for this Summerside, the second largest community on 'the Island', is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful towns in Atlantic Canada. Clean and tidy, with quiet streets lined with large, spreading museums. Why the writer chose Kronborg as the loca- tion for his play remains a mystery, but according to one theory, be may have done so to ensure that ..Hamlet" was a hit. During his lifetime, the castle was known throughout Europe - not as the home of a tormented youth, but for a far less romantic reason. The cas- tle guarded an important trade route - the stretch of water that leads to the Baltic Sea - and every time a foreign ship sailed by, the captain had to pay a hefty tax. The Copenhagen Card gives visitors free admis- sion to 40 museums as well as unlimited transportation by bus or train in the Greater Copenhagen area. For information, contact the Danish Tourist Board, Box 115, Station N" Toronto, Ontario, M8V 3S4; telephone 823-9620. trees, the town boasts an impressive collection of handsome heritage buildings that certainly add to its charm. When Atlantic Canadians think of Summerside, they automatically think of sports. for over the years Summerside has hosted a large number of provincial, regional, as well as na- tional sporting events. In 1989 Summerside will host the World Youth Softball Championships. The town is therefore the natural set- ting for the P.E.I. Sports Hall of Fame. Also located in Summer - side are the province's most modern yacht dub and marina, one of Atlantic Canada's fastest harness racing tracks and an 184iole golf course. Of course sports are not for everyone, and should you find yourself in this category, you will be glad to hear that you can still have just as much fun in Summerside. In the same building as the Sports Hall of Fame is an exhibition centre ( the Eptek Centre) that annually hosts a se- quence of historic and fine art exhibits from across Canada. Another point of interest is the Silver Fox Hall of Fame that chronicles the rich history of the Island's fox breeding industry. In spite of the extensive green spaces in the town itself, should you feel the urge to dip your feet in the ocean, on one of those warm Summerside days, there's no better retreat than the nearby Irnkletter Provincial Park. During July and August, you will find the waters of Bedeque Bay so warm that you may mistake it for some tropical island .. that is of course until you realize that the red sand beach could only belong to Prince Edward Island. While in the Summerside Scarborough Council Notes Back Legion Council has backed a resolution by the Royal Canadian Legion asking for criminal persecution of those who misuse the Cana- dian flag and vandalize war memorials. The group wants the federal government to amend the Criminal Code giving police and the courts authority to arrest and punish those who "show disrespect for those things our veterans fought and died for". The letter from the legion said veterans are demanding strong action "to uphold the memory of our fallen comrades". Relocate Animal Control Centre Scarborough Council wants to locate the new Animal Control Centre on the east side of Bellamy Rd., south of Progress Ave. First, it has to buy part of the land needed and ex- propriate the rest. Council has agreed to buy 60,000 sq. ft. for $1.1 million and expropriate another 17,000 sq. ft. The centre is presently located on Midland Ave. next to the RT station. The facility is too small for the sine of the opera- tion. Council approved a new facility almost two years ago but has been unable to find a suitable site. Against Parking Bae Council has decided against banning ling near super mailboxes. Councillors have received complaints from some residents who cannot ac- cess their boxes because of parted cars. Council has decided to pass on the pro- blem to Canada Post and to Scarborough's federal members of parliament. Midland Ave. Ligbt Council has decided to in- stall a flashing amber light at the intersection of Midland Ave. and Weybright Ct. The light, at area, be sure to take in the unique display of scaled models of British castles, churches and other historic buildings at 'Woodleigh', a picturesque English couut- tryside setting in Burl- ington. Community festivals are an enriching facet of island culture and heritage; a special treat for all those who visit this province. In a cost of $3,000 is to warn southbound motorists that cars could be coming out of Weybright. The light was requested by businesses on Weybright. In addition, a left turn lane is to be pro- vided on Midland at a fur- ther cost of $3,000 and $300 for markings. Parking Bans More traffic changes for motorists to look out for. Council has approved a parking anytime ban on the east and north sides of Kingsdown Dr., on the south side of Flocens Ave. between Pharmacy and Bertha Ave., the south side of Kilbride Rd. from Valparaiso Ave. to the west limit of 57 Kilbride Rd., the west end of Aylesworth Ave. immediately north of Highview Ave. Stop Signs Council also approved stop signs for O'Halloran Cr., Audrelane Ct. and Hambleton Ct. where they intersect with Lorna Rae Blvd. Right Hand Turns Banned Also approved was a 4-6 p.m. Monday to Friday ban on eastbound not hand turns at Reeve Ave. both at Atlee Ave. and at Heale Ave. Construction Up This year promises to be another banner year for development congnx-tion in Scarborough. As of Apr. 9, building permits issued by the city's building department were running M4 million ahead of the same tine last year and almost $84 million over the same period in 1987. The biggest increase has been in commercial development which is almost $70 million ahead of last year's pace. Industrial development is down but this is offset by an increase in construction of single family homes. the Summerside area watch for the Surn merside Lobster Carnival in July and the Kensington Com- munity Harvest Festival in August.

Awareness of family violence is growing and it is clearly a major social issue. The provincial government is increasing funding for wife assault prevention programs. In a recent announcement, the Minister Responsible for Women's Issues, The Honourable Gregory Sorbar, said the government will allocate $5.4 million and a cost of living increase of about $500,000 to bring the total 1989-90 budget for assault preven- tion to $40 million. This is an increase of 17 percent over 1988-89. The Minister said "We will be expanding our efforts to prevent wife assault and provide support for victims and family members as part of the government's commitment to maintain safety and protect the quality of life in our com- munities. " $5 million of the new funding will go to the Ministry of Community and Social Services, primarily for services to women and children. The $5 million includes: $2.7 million to enhance existing shelter services. $200,000 to increase the number of child support workers in response to recent increases in the number of shelter beds, ensuring that every shelter will have at least one full-time child mp- port worker to address children's needs. $2.1 million for counselling programs in community agen- cies for female victims of wife assault, children who have witnessed violence in their homes, and male batterers. ..The increased allocation to my ministry will enhance our shelter system and more effectively respond to the needs of women and children whose lives are severely damaged by this crime," said Jahn Sweeney, Minister for Community and Social Services. The province is taking an integrated approach to wife assault prevention by involving 15 ministries and agencies. all co-ordinated by the Ontario Women's Directorate. Funds are given for 23 initiatives in three key areas: law enforcement and criminalization. family support programs and shelter services_ public and professional education and prevention activities. Mr. Sorbara said "the government's determination to protect the quality of life in our communities recognizes the importance of safety and security for women. That is why we are increasing our prevention efforts. There is no excuse for wife assault - it is not a private family matter but a violent crime that affects us all." Those residents of Durham West who are victims of wife abuse can call The Denise House at 728-7311 or Apple House at 5764880. If you would like more information regarding the government's initiative call Mike in Queen's Park at 965-1929.
