We hope that the production of this event - D -Day Remembered - will help to keep everyone well informed so that no dictator like Hitler ever gets control of a country again. Canada got acclaim in this celebration which finally lets everyone - especially today's Canadians - know that this country had 1 million in our armed forces out of a population of 13 million. We learned also that in two world wars 110,000 Canadians had been killed. In 1944 1 was miles from the French coast. As a radar technician in Burma facing the Japanese Army I was pleased to hear on the radio that our troops were now in France and the long war could be over soon. Our Prime Minister was too young for World War 11 but he had a brother and a brother-in-law in the war, so he was kept informed about events. The new monument to Canada and its armed forces in London. England looks like something really worth seeing. This D -Day Remembrance program should help all Canadian citizens to understand what went on around the English Channel in those significant days of 1943. Announces Changes To The Refugee System The Hon. Sergio 'Slarrhi. Minister of Citizenship and Im- migration, has announced a number of interim changes to the refugee system. These changes respond to a key Con- cern identified in the report to the Minister of Susan Dads and Lorne Waldman. two non-governmental experts in the field of immigration. It is important that we move now on these interim measures to improve our refugee system without delay." said Mr. Marchi. "As I indicated last week. I share the con- cern expressed by the authors about the post -claim risk assessment process." said the '.Minister. "In order to ensure that the process works fairly. 1 am establishing a centralh-managed departmental body to take overall responsibility for the quality and consistency of the re%iew of refused refugee claimants. This body will be assisted by the Canadian office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and by York University's Centre for Refugee Studies." This senior departmental mechanism will ensure that review officers. Including a number of new recnuts. are trained In applying a broader interpretation of the review criteria. which will Include violations of fundamental human rights. The interim review process will be part of the departments admissiom program, and not in the en- forcement stream. This broader application of the criteria is effective im- mediately. It will apply to all refused claimants who have not yet had a final review by the department. Those with criminal com-nctlom or who represent a security threat are not eligible In addition. the Minister has invited the Canadian Council for Refugees (CCR, to assist In this procedure The CCR is considering the request and will discuss it at its forthcom- ing meeting In June. Under the :Minister's proposal, the CCR would identify non-governmental agencies across Canada that, on a volun- tary basis. would help identify previously rejected claimants who aught benefit from a further review under the broader interpretation of the criteria. These agencies will screen the cases of refused claimants who, since Feburary 1. 1993, have been refused bv the Im- migration and Refugee Board and by the department's review mechanism, and are still in Canada. Subrrussiom on such cases can be made over a three month period beginning Aug. 1.

The South Asian Family Support Sa•vices is one of 47 Ontario organizations that will share S415,8W in funds allocated in the 1993-94 fiscal year for one-time training programs to teach health professionals how to recognize and respond to women who have been sexually and physically assaulted_ "The woman who has been battered or sexually assaulted often can't rind appropriate help," Frankford said. "Health professionals are often the fust to see her. That's where a woman may begin to deal with the pain.

The 1994 budget is $11.4 million less than the 1993 expenditures. Recent receipt of the General Legislative Grants, as well as con- tinued scrutiny of budget items and reductions in human resources through incentives, attrition and the social contract made it possible to achieve a balanced budget without eliminating existing school programs in the 1994 95 school year. Increased Reveeares General legislative grant revenue for 1994 is apprw imately $13.6 million over the board's initial 1994 forecast. Provision for a pay equity grant and an Ontario Training and Ad- iust meat Board grant for Ctteracy and nurneracy pro- grams also increased pro- >erted revenues. Salary Reductions In addition to salary reductions due to social contract deductions from employees earnings. MSSB has embarked on a three - phased staff downsiz- ing restructuring process that has been accomplish- ed by attrition, retirement incentive plans and the social contract. As a result, a reduction of 223 staff has been incorporated into the 1994 budget including the reduction of 13 supervisory officers. 'Innis is in addition to a reduction of 267 staff since 1990. Transportatilm Route efficiencies, the implementation of EDUL,OG, a computerized scheduling package. and the introduction of stag- gered school hours (effec- tive Sept. '94, in 20% of MShB schools will save the board $1 7 million in 1994. %an tialan t3edrtcliaac The Staff Budget Ad- visory Committee has iden- tified for reduction approx- imately $8.2 million in ad- ministrative services and operations. 1993 Deficit Permission has been re- quested from the Ministry of Education and Training to amortize the 19903 deficit of $10.7 million over a three year period commencing in 1995 to 1997. However, due to the reductions to the 1994 budget and their annualiz- ed effect, the amortization period can be brought for- ward by one year and be completed in L9%. MWRate The new budget avoids any increase in the mi$ rate. The residential and commercial trill rates for 1994 remain at 1993 rates of :50.80 and 295.06. respec- tiveh•. The balancing of the 1994 budget represents the end of a long and difficult pro- cess. True to our Mission and Vision for students, Canada Savings Bonds Worth Having "It's times like these that owning Canada Savings Bonds is really comforting." Robert Nesbitt, an Ottawa stockbroker, was commenting on the recent increase in the interest rate in Canada Savings Bonds. With this increase, effective for three months, the rate is being raised from 4.25 percent to 5.5 percent - from May 1 to July 31, 1994. The new rate applies to all outstanding Canada Savings Bonds. The rate will revert to 4.25 percent for the balance of the current term - from Aug. 1 to Nov. 1, 1994, when a new rate will be set on the next series of Canada Savings Bonds. "That's one of the great advantages of owning Canada Savings Bonds," says Nesbitt, who also works as a representative for the Payroll Savings Plan. "If rates go up, the interest rate on SCBs is usually raised too, to reflect the current interest rate environment - just as it did now." Unlike GICs, adds Nesbitt, where you're locked in for a ,year or more with little prospect of getting at your money without paying a stiff penalty, CSBs are completely flexible. They can be cashed on any business day at no Mss to the investor. -With CSBs, you know you'll get back every penny you've invested - plus accrued interest if held for three months - no matter what happens to the stock market or interest rates in general." The latest increase, he says. underlines the advantage of keeping part of your furls in a safe, liquid investment like Canada Savings Bonds and why CSBs have remained so popular with Canadians for more than 45 years.

Thanks to the success of the hospital's $8.5 million "Caring Together" fun- draising campaign, the hospital has been able to purchase a $1 million Philips Integris V3000, and as a result take full advan- tage of the skills of the staff radiologists at the hospital. "The benefits to the pa- tient will be significant to say the least, says Dr. Rick Clemens, Director of Diagnostic Imaging. "The :new equipment will enable us to see the type of detail 'that was not possible before. Angiography is a non- surgical procedure used to diagnose patients with blocked arteries. During the procedure, the radiologist inserts a catheter covered with a plastic tube into the artery. A wire is then carefully threaded to the area re- quiring examination. Once dye has been injected into the patient, a series of rapid pictures are taken to determine the exact loca- tion of the blockage. The new equipment, which replaces a 13 year old model, uses digital sub- traction to renwve obscur- ing layers of tissue from the image. This provides a clear and instantaneous view of the area of interest undergoing intervention. The new machine also enables the technologists to take x-rays from any direc- tion. This was not possible with the old model. The new technology also results in procedures being car- ried out more quickly and comfortably for the pa- tient. "As technology ad- vances, we must continue to upgrade our equipment and skills," says Dr. Clemens. "The tremendous support that we have so far received for our hospital's "Caring Together" cam- paign has enabled us to reach this goal."

John Deere's Consumer Infurnratinn .Nanu•ger To Water or Not to Water? To water or not to water' That is the question. especially when summer's searing heat threatens havoc on your yard. Luckily, it's not a trick question_ In fact, depending on the situation, either answer is the right choice. Hem's why: Most lawns meed about an inch of water every five to seven days during mowing season. Some of this will cer- tainly come from spring or summer showers, which you can measure with a rain gauge. But if nature doesn't cooperate, you might begin to notice telltale signs of thirst: • The lawn turns a bluish -green color. • Footprints show in the yard as you walk on it. • Eventually, the grass turns brown and the soil is hard and cracked. By now, you have an important deci- sion to make: water as soon as possible or don't water at all. Most kinds of grass can survive occasional droughts. In fact, and cow ditims may even kill water -loving weed, and discourage diseases. If the weather forecast calls for an extended dry, spell and water is expensive or rationed, then you might decide not to water your lawn at all. This option, believe it or not. is preferable to giving your yard just an occasional watering. A once in a while sprinkling promotes a cycle of growth and dormatic:y that can actually harm your lawn. Roots use food to grow when water is available. When all available water has been used for growing and for making and storing food, the grass goes dormant. This pattern, if set irregularly, can weaken your lawn and make it more susceptible to damage from stressful conditions. With this in mind, if water is available aid affordable, water your yard thorough- ly and regularly as soon as it shows signs of thirst. A few simple guidelines will ensure your lawn makes the most of every drop. First, water early in the morning so that water droplets on the blades will evaporate by stnniown. These droplets can harbor disease using organisms, so you want them to dry as quickly as possible. Mow on the high side: higher grass blades will shade the soil and slow evaporation of water from the soil. Return grass clippings to the lawn as you mow. The finely chopped clippings can form a thin comport layer and help hold moisture. in fact. clippings are 85 percent water, they decompose to feed placed 12th, Carolyn Bahry of Bowlerama Bathurst, Toronto was 27th, and Carrie Macaskill and Sara Thomson, both of Bowlerama Thorncliffe, Toronto placed 39th. In the Men's Division, Craig Schiele of Celebrity Lanes, Pickering placed 3rd, Mike O'Donnell of Plaza Bowl, Ajax placed 6th and Shawn Parkins of Bowlerama Thorneliffe, Toronto came in l lth. Dean Tardio of O'Connor Bowl, Toronto was in 16th place, Ed Straub of Bowlerama. Rexdale placed 17th, Shane Sleep of Celebrity Lanes, Pickering came in 29th and Kiran Hodgkinson of Bowlerama Thorncliffe, Toronto was in 46th place. Cr.

These soil; should bewatered more frequent- ly, but with less water since It drains away so quickly. On the other hand. clay soils have tiny pores that hold a great deal of water but don't drain ver, fast. So be careful not to ovemater clay -based lawns: too much water could make your lawn susceptible to root rot and other diseases. 1'ce alw•ays heard you shouldnY mow your varrl when it's wet. Whv not' Mowing wet grass can compact damp soil, preventing the movement of air and water into the ground. This could contribute to thatch build-up and spread fiingus disease. More importantly, you shouldn't mow a wet lawn to avoid slipping or falling, particularly if you're using a walk -behind mower. &ob Trac•inski is Cnrtsumer Inform inion Manager for the John Deere l.rw•n & Gmundv Care Division and a Certified Mavrer Gardener. Page to 711E NFWS POST N'ed. ,lune K, 1944 Bill Watt's Worlds CENTENARI': Massey Hall celebrates its 100th anniversary next Tuesday with a gala begin- ning at 7:30 p.m. with a specially commissioned fanfare by Louis Ap- plebaum. ( For those unaware of the fact, Mr. Applebaum is the com- poser of the fanfare that begins every production in the Festival Theatre at Stratford). The pro- gramme begins with the Pastoral Symphony and Hallelujah Chrous from Handel's Messiah as was so when the hall first opened. A whole host of guests will then join with the Toronto Symphony; so many that space prevents mention of them all. It's probably academic in any case since seats are now virtually unattainable. Still you could try and even if unsuccessful, there are always this Sundays's celebrations. From 1 to 5 p.m.. Shuter and Victoria Streets will be closed to vehicular traffic for a Street Festival and Open House. There will be bands and other performers. a historical walkway and tours of the hall itself. And, lest anyone should feel that all this is a more or less indulgent salute to a grand old lady. let it not be forgotten that The Massey is still numbered among the most acoustically ac- curate halls in the world. In North Amerca its acoustics are bettered only by those of the Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City. Utah. Happy birthday Massey Hall. Nice to have you with us. Incidentally. our first visit as a member of the au- dience was to see Victor Borge in his first Toronto appearance. Our date was a nubile blade named Bar- bara. Sadly. we can't recall her surname but do recall the pleasure of the evening. ON SCREEN: Notwithstanding the presence of Dennis Hophead - Oops sorry' - Hopper in the cast of Speed (Twentieth Century Fox), the movie isn't about drugs. It's an expansive ac- tion flick in which he has planted a bomb on board a Los Angeles Transit bus. It will detonate if the speed of the bus lowers to less than 50 m.p.h. Keanu Reeves is a member of the L.A.P.D. Swat team trying to pre- vent the tragedy. Sandra Bullock is a toothsome young lady seconded to drive the bus when its driver is injured. It's an interesting premise and despite some rather obvious technical flaws (Feet can't be dragg- ed along concrete at speed. Even the longest of airport runways can't provide for a bus that seems never to turn), it comes off as two hours of escape - literally - entertainment. And, given the genius of screenwriters, it shouldn't surprise anyone if there is a sequel to give us more of Dennis Hopper's classic villainy. In passing it should be noted that Jan DeBont in his directorial debut has not filmed all of the stunt sequences "for Real" to use his words. Some are very obviously on a sound stage with mar screen pro- jection. Well, it's an expensive movie ( just under $30 million U.S. on the more or less official ledger) and some economy cuts had to be made. Speed opens in theatres this Friday.

The only professional involved was an experienced and knowledecable woman - the local midwife. Midwives consoled and euided the mother, soothed the newborn with a brew from weeds and often tool: care of household chores while the mother recov- ered. They were recognized a% important members of the coin- muniiy. In New France, midwives were elected by the female members of the parishes. Ran,ging from high- ly -trained medical professionals to local women who inherited the knowledge from female family members, midwives were highly respected. In villages, they were recognized as moral and public advisers. In Montr6al, QudbLc and Trois Rivitres, midwives were paid by the King. Elsewhere in Canada, mid- wives never attained elected status but they were held in high regard. In Newfoundland, where mid- The Changing Role of Midwives wives held sway until well into the 1960s. the local granny was a respected community figure. "We usen't to bother with the company doctor," accordinn to one New- foundland woman, "1 had the mid- wife, Auntic I lizabLth, for all my babies. There was no limit to Ute thins she used to handle ... She was so kind and sweet to us all." Until the 19th century, most Canadian doc- tors took little interest in child- birth. however, as their numhcrs grew, delivering babies became a lucrative business for many do c- lots. To persuade women to move away from their midwives. they promised a cleaner and safer delivery. In medical journals doctors accused midwives of negligence and quackery. In the British 100 Years Old!

Mortality rates for mothers and infants remained high until well into the 1920s. Women hLgan to favour hospital births. however, in reality, hospital births may have been no safer than home births. While doctors had access to technology that could save lives, they sometimes intervened needlessly - causing The Heritage Pioject is proud to be associated with the International Year of the Family. For more information atwmt the Heritage Project please call 1-800-967-1867 Eventually with the introduc- tion of blood transfusion tech- niques, the use of antibiotics and improved obstetrical training, hos- pital births became much safer. By the 1960% almost all Cana Bain women were eiving birth awav from home. Not all women were satisfied with the care they w•crc receiving in hospital, howcvci. Some com- plained that the atmosphere was cold and unfeeling_ and that some medical inlerventions were unnec- essary and inhumane. A renewed interest in the process of birth developed, giving rise to the idea of "natural" childbirth. Ilospitals changed - they allowed gathers to participate. created "birthing rooms" and permitted the infant to stay with the mother. In this new climate• midwives are once again playing a role in birth. In Ontario, midwifery became a fully regulated profes- sion and a government funded %Lr - vice in January, 199. It all sounds like great fun but we've a caveat to offer. Watch out for the edges of the concrete squares. CHORAL PLEASURES: The Amadeus Choir, the official choir in residence at the North York Perform- ing Arts Centre. gives the last concert of its 93 94 season this Saturday. Great Choral Favourites will feature the works of Bach, Handel, Brahms and Mentdetssohn. The actual programme hasn't been given to us but we make bold enough to suggest re- quest that the beloved On Wings Of Song will be sung. COMMENT: The Column regards I" cien Bouchard as a weasel- ly, opportunistic traitor who should be convicted of treason. As far as we are aware, treason is the one remaining crime in the Criminal Code that calls for the death penalty. Now. having said that, allow us the following com- ments. The man is quite correct when he states that the U.S.A. has designs upon Canada in the event of Quebec's separation from us. Any student of history is well aware of America's continuing adherence to President Polk's declara- tion of the doctrine of Manifest Destiny. America is Canada's dearest friend but it will not hesitate to absorb us in the event that we show signs of actual dissolution. And, you know, the way Canada is going, it might not be such a bad idea. Our southern friends are not always the finest that humanity has to offer but the prominciamentoes of Washington frequently make a helluvalot more sense that the drivel we get from Ottawa. FAST EXIT: The late Gary Cooper once offered a lift to Lee Marvin after a day's film- ing. Mr. Cooper stopped for gasoline and proffered the attendant a $10 cheque in payment. "I'm going to frame this!" exclaimed the latter. Afterward Marvin asked Cooper "How many Of your cheques ever come to the bank?" "About one in ten," replied Cooper. travel Tourism Awareness Month Bright Future For Metro June has been declared "Tourism Awareness Month" by the Tourism In- dustry Association of Canada, and Ontario Minister of Culture, Tourism and Recreation Anne Swarbrick is pointing to significant gains in tourism's economic perfor- mance in Ontario's capital city as a positive harbinger of things to come. "Two millhon additional tourists visited Toronto last year compared to 1992, in- jecting an additional $410 million into the city's economy. That's an eight per cent rise in both areas, signifying a moderate economic recovery for the industry," she said. "Of equal importance, there were 3,500 additional person-years of employ- ment relating to Metro's tourism industry. Another post tive sign is borne out by statistics related to conven- tions in Metro. The number of convention delegates rose from 497.000 to 618.000, a jump of 27 per cent. Revenue from convention business increased by 25 per cent to $649 million. These are significant in- dications the economic pendulum is turning up- ward. " "As we swing into the summer high season for tourism, people in the tourism and hospitality in- dustry across Metro are getting ready to welcome millions of visitors." said the Minister. "We want everyone to understand what an important role tourism plays in Metro's economy, and the support those in the industry pro- vide in helping to make Metro one of the world's top travel destinations. " During the next few years, growth is expected to occur at a much faster rate in the tourism and hospitality sectors than the provincial average an- ticipated for other in- dustries. and will rebound from the slight downturn it experienced in the past two years, a decrease which has been blamed on reces- sionary factors. The growth of tourism is a worldwide phenomenon, and according to the World Travel and Tourism Coun- cil, tourism is the world's largest industry and largest generator of jobs. Major events and attrac- tions will make an essential contribution to the continu- ing economic recovery of the tourism industry in Metro. Visitors from far and wide await the arrival of the renowned Barnes Collection exhibition of masterpieces at the newly renovated Art Gallery of Ontario, which will begin Sept. 17 and run through the end of this year. The provincial govern- ment committed $3.75 million toward the cost of hosting the collection of French paintings. This is expected to generate $35 trillion in spending by out- of-town visitors, as well as the equivalent of one thou- sand new jobs, striking a major boon for the culture, tourism and employment sectors. The Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) is Canada's largest public museum. It captures the mind and imagination with unique and fascinating ex- hibits, including its inter- nationally acclaimed col- lection of Chinese artifacts and early Canadian. The McMichael Cana- dian Art Collection, just northwest of Metro, is best noted for its collection featuring the Group of Seven. The unique ar- chitecture and natural sur- roundings echo and enhance what is the most impressive collections of Canadian paintings anywhere in the world. The Ontario Science Cen- tre is a staple of any visit to Metro, where visitors can mix learning about science and technology with a large 4ose of fun. Interactive displays, many of which capture the imaginations of youngsters, are ever- present throughout the Science Centre. Ontario Place continues to grow in popularity, pro- viding the best in current - day and future entertain- ment, offering an [MAX theatre. thrilling rides and open-air concerts at the On- tano Place Forum. The world's largest Caribbean festival will be even greater this year, thanks to $391,000 in fun- ding support provided by the Ministry of Culture. Tourism and Recreation. The festival, which attracts over 1.2 million people to Toronto in August, is a week-long celebration of Caribbean bands. dancing. costumes and masquerade and includes a carnival parade that literally turns downtown Toronto into a huge street party. Cariba na has become one of the province's premier tourist attractions and cultural events. It's estimated Caribana brags in $200 million in revenues every year to the region. Include the CN Tower, the SkvDome. Casa Loma, world-class live theatre. Harbourfront and the Metro Toronto Zoo into the mix, and you realize Toron- to offers the best of everything. In the past year, the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Recreation has been working closely with its tourism partners in all regions of the province including Metro, and together, they have developed a Tourism Sec- tor Strategy to enhance the tourism and hospitality in- dustry in Ontario, and to strengthen Ontario's com- petitive position as a major world travel destination. Tourism Awareness Month will help highlight the economic payoff associated with providing excellent customer service and helpful attitudes that help ensure the experience tourists have here is a positive one. "Positive word of mouth reporting is our strongest marketing tool," she said. To provide visitors with information on what to do and see while they're here, the Ministry has developed a toll-free 1 -8W -ONTARIO information line to provide instant updates on events and attractions.
