The board approved two

amounts of $9.610,538.86
and $3,158,176.00 at the an-
nual interest rate of 8.77
percent for a 20 year
period. These represent
loan advances from the
provincial government on
school capital projects for
the period April 1, 1994 to
March 31, 1994.
The by-laws were
necessary as a result of the
government's 19M decision
to alter its format for pro-
viding cash grants to
school boards for capital
projects. The government
established the Ontario
Financing Authourity
whereby all money advanc-
ed to the boards during the

would represent loans to be

About Bicycles
by Bob Watson
Recentiv as we were driving in our car along a side street
we saw a cross walk ahead but no pedestrians. Then all of a
sudden two teenagers riding their bikes on the sidewalk
came to the crosswalk. Without am• hesitation they entered
the crosswalk and we pulled up suddenly.
When we were a teenager bicycles could not be ridden on
sidewalks - they were for pedestrians. We got a ticket for
riding on the sidewalk in front of our house in the early 30's.
Why are the authorities allowing anyone to ride bicycles
on any public property'. W-hy aren't the old rules of bicycl
ing still under police jurisdiction? We believe the old rules
should apply today.
Letter To The Editor
About Defence Changes
Dear Mr. Watson
As Minister of National Defence, I wish to comment on
your article in the East End News on Wed. June 15th, con-
cerning the closure of the Canadian Forces Staff School on
Avenue Road in Toronto.
The Government has an obligation to ensure that tax-
payers' money is spent in a reasonable way. As part of the
recent cuts announced in the February budget, the Depart-
ment of National Defence had to make some difficult deci-
sions, including rationalizing all our professional develop-
ment, training and education. The Staff School in Toronto
was an important element of that training, but it was also a
part of junior officer development that could be addressed
separately by the different elements of the Canadian
Forces. The cost of supporting the school at Avenue Road
was too high when compared to the number of students it
served. For this reason it was formally closed on June 30th.
1994, and is currently available for disposal.
I read with interest your dews on young Canadians. I can
assure you that my experiences with young Canadian
Forces personnel are extremely positive. They serve their
country very well std very proudly, and even though the
Staff School on Avenue Road has closed. I will do my best to
ensure we maintain this high quality of commitment and
excellence.
As to your suggestion that young Canadians should have a
penod of obligatory military service, particularly during
this penod of recession. I moist point out that most C'ana-
dians would find this approach unacceptable. however, the
federal Department of Human Resources Developrtfent is
currently defining the problem and developing a national
strategy to assist young Canadians in their pursuit of pro-
ductive and rewarding futures.
Yours sincerely.

Zoo Tragedy Responsibility
Of Metro Politicians
Dear Mr. Editor:
The recent accident of the zoo monorail is sad as the
organization continues to try and maintain the high profile
inherited from Mr. Ron Barbaro. He performed the duties
of General Manager and Board Chairman for E1 per year.
His legacy has not been equalled even with the massive, ex-
pensive bureaucrats added to the management staff at the
time of his leaving. The bureaucrats have guilefully guided
the Metropolitan Toronto elected politicians who still seem
to be wondering how things should be done.
The fact is that the bureaucrats and the baffled elected of-
ficials have spent millions of taxpayers dollars to build a
multimillion dollar office complex to house the new
bureaucrats when the money used could have refurbished
the whole monorail system. It is well known that the time
when the system was built and with the new technology
thereafter, that system should have been revamped. Unfor-
tunately, the bureaucrats who have converted the zoo into a
massive clerical department of highly paid administrative
people have manipulated the Board to rubberstamp
everything including the bureaucrats new multimillion
dollar building, thereby allowing their little kingdom to
flourish when the operation suffers.
We now hear of more consultant reports which will be fur-
ther out of pocket expense tax dollars from the drained tax-
payers. This type of problem is through the whole metro
system and one that Metro Council has never been able to
address. I would suggest that any report should address the
whole system to see what is happening and give the taxpay-
ing community an opportunity to respond.
At the zoo, maybe the ride should be scrapped and the
linespace turned into a w•aterslide, as quite frankly, tax-
payers cannot afford the hill for redevelopment of the
system when other area: such as daycare badly needs
money.
If elected officials on the board had sufficient commmn
sense and gumption, the monorail system would have been
upgraded to serve the public and the new executive office
complex would have been scrapped. particularly when an
office facility alreadv existed. Even the T.T.C. maintains
their trains rather than build new buildings.
The Metro Zoo, like the rest of Metro, has too many top
heavy, expensive administrative people running producing
immense impet- iwis reports for gullible Metro elected of-
ficials. at taxpayers' expense. It is time to restructure the
Zoo, and Metro, to have more working staff and to allocate
taxpayers' ffvwwy in the right areas. This is a micro image
of the taxpayers present bigger financial woes.
It is necessary to understand that every dollar spent at
every level of government, including the Za►, adds up to the
total that taxpayers pay. Therefore there should be some
accountabilit v.

Queen's Park Report
Bob Frankford, M.P.P.
Scarborough East
The Neighbourhood Youth Club of Scarborough on
Galloway Road in West Hill noticed that its sports pro-
grams were much less used by teenage and young adult
females than males. Considering the many benefits of par-
ticipation such as encouraging a healthy lifestyle, achiev-
ing self esteem and a team spirit, it was felt that something
should be done. An application to the provincial Ministry of
Culture, Tourism and Recreation for funding a sports pro-
gram has resulted in a grant of 3.�tl,otlo for a one year pilot
project.
Entitled S.P.A.C.E. for Young Women tSocial and
Physical Activities and Cultural E mpow•erment 1 the pro-
gram will seek out participants in the community and
through focus groups identify people's needs and
preferences. Co-ordinator Donna Green and her assistant
Angeline Thompson are Black women in their twenties who
see a real need and have a great ambition to make the pro-
gram succeed. While expecting to involve the significant
number of minority and metis women living in the area, the
program is targeted at all teenage women.
Presenting the check on behalf of Minister Anne Swar-
brick• Scarborough MPP Dr. Bob FF rankford expressed his
support for the project. "It's an innovative approach that
will promote health and the well being of the area. Some
jobs have been created in the process and the Club will con-
tinue to grow as an important community resource."

Angela Wins Chairman's Award For Great Contribution At Scarborough General
The Chairman's Award,
presented annually by the
Board of Governors at
Scarborough General
Hospital, is a recognition of
those individuals who in the
opinion of their peers, have
made an outstanding con-
tribution to the hospital.
Angela Broderick,
Manager of Nursing Prac-
tice in the Surgical Suite
and recipient in the
Hospital Community
category, was very
honoured to be recognized.
However, she felt that her
award was also a tribute to
all the staff, physicians and
volunteers, who provide
their support and expertise
on a daily basis. "You are
only as good as the people
you work with," she said.
A native of Newfoundland,
Mrs. Broderick has spent
her professional career in
nursing, specializing in
operating room surgical
practice. She received her
nursing diploma from St.
Clare's Mecy Hospital in
St. John's. Her career
brought her to Scarborough
General in 1971, and since
those early days she has
developed the type of
leadership and manage-
ment qualities that have
had a major impact in the
effective accomplishment
given that the hospital car-
ries out over 14,000 surgical
procedures each year.
Among her contributions

Elected For
3rd. Term
The Ontario Historical
Society has announced that
Everette Moore of Scar-
borough has been re-
elected for a third term to
the society's Board of
Directors at its Annual
Meeting held recently in
Hamilton.
Everette Moore has been
involved in the heritage
field for many years. She
has been instrumental in
developing several co-
operative programs with
the OHS in her present
capacity as Executive
Director of the Ontario
Black History Society. Dur-
ing 1994-95, Everette will
chair the OHS' Local
Societies Committee.
Founded in 1888, The On-
tario Historical Society of-
fers a wide variety of pro-
grams and projects across
the province. Some of the
society's activities include

twice received Ontario's
Gold Award of Excellence
for Truck Fleets. Founder
and President Dan
Einwechter launched
Challenger in 1975 in order
to pay his university tui-
tion; today, Challenger has
more than 500 trucks and
1500 trailers hauling goods
in Canada, the United
States and Mexico.
Einwechter's extensive
research into satellite and
tracking technology has
helped make Challenger
one of the trucking in-
dustry's leading edge
firms.
Einwechter described
some of his entrepreneurial
experiences at the May 18
Network Luncheon, hosted
by the Centennial College
Centre of Entrepreneur-
ship and sponsored by the
Bank of Montreal and
Coopers and Lybrand and
held at the Downtown
Sheraton Centre.
Probably the smartest
move he made in the begin-
ning, Einwechter says, was
to ask one of his university
professors to recommend
someone Dan might hire to
help with the workload.
The professor recommend-
ed Mark Moir, who later
became Einwechter's part-
ner and an invaluable asset
to the company.
-I tend to be careful about
recommending partner-
ships generally,"
Einwechter says, "but this
one worked out excep-
tionally well...
Computerizing is impor-
tant but isn't a guaranteed
key to success. "The team
you build is as important as
the technology,"
Einwechter points out.
"The two go hand in hand. "
The Centre of En-
trepreneurship is located in
the School of Business at
the Progress Campus of
Centennial College.
"Students" at the Centre of
Entrepreneurship range
from young college
students to adults in their
fifties and sixties; all have
come to the realization that
the only job they might find
in the 90s is the one they
create for themselves.
Programs offered through
the Centre include helping
these newly self-employed
small business people to
learn the accounting,
marketing, financing, and
other skills required to
organize their own small
business through
classroom training and
one-on-one counselling.
20 Lawyers Praised For Their
Volunteer Time For Residents
The Agincourt Communi-

many Scarborough
Residents. The Organiza-
tion is grateful to the 20
lawyers who volunteer two
or three evenings a year to
give legal advise to an
average of 5 to 6 clients at
each clinic.
There are also 6 recep-
tionists who volunteer their
time and expertise for this
program.
in the surgical suite, Mrs.
Broderick facilitated ma-
jor electrical and air ex-
change renovations. Under
her leadership, steriliza-
tion methods have been
maintained at a very high
standard. Several of her
management initiatives
have resulted in significant
cost savings for the
hospital.
Her dedication to patient
care is second to none while
her commitment to con-
tinuous quality improve-
ment is reflected
throughout her depatment.

Recapturing The Warmth Of Old -Fashioned Weddings
You could probably ar-
range to hold it on a bungee
platform. Say your vows
and then actually leap into
marriage. Even though the
possibilities for weddings
these days are endless. the
intentions have changed
very little over hundreds of
years. Couples preparing
to tic. the proverbial knot
still want to mark this im-
portant day in their lives in
a way that captures
something of themselves
and the way they see their
new life together.
Weddings in the mid -19th -
century were the same, in
that sense. Couples
celebrated their marriages
in ways that reflected their
own values and those of
their day. The key dif-
ferences between weddings
today and in 1860's Ontario
are shaped by changes in
the amount of money
families have and shifting
social conventions.
White weddings only
became a "tradition" when
families had more money.
White wedding gown, for
example, became common
only at the turn of this cen-
tury when families could
afford to dress the bride in
a gown she would wear on-
ly once. Earlier, brides
might wear dresses of soft
grey or beige made of wool,
linen or a mixture of both,
which they could wear
after thier marriage. White
gloves were worn to repre-
sent purity and
maidenhood, instead of
white gowns.
In rural areas particular-
ly, families made the food
for weddings. Here is an
excerpt from Sarah H.
Drinkwater's diary, Oc-
tober 6, 1940, near
Penetang: "Commenced
making a wedding cake.
My mother I mean. We
helped to mix it, very hard
work. We baked it in the
bake kettle in the dining
room. Cake out about
dusk. My mother found it
tiresome to ice. The al-
mond paste looked
beautiful. "
Weddings were commonly
held in churches and in-
volved the whole communi-
ty. The etiquette for 19th -
century marriages was
complex. After the nup-
tials. a bride was expected
to dress up and stay home
for a week to receive
visitors. Catherine Parr
Traill writes about this
custom in 1836 in her book,
The Backwooks of Canada:
"She seemed to dread the
ordeal :... Every person of
the same claw prepare& to
pay them a visit of con-
gratulation and she knows
that herself, her dress, the
furniture, even her cake
and wine will undergo the
most minute scrutiny and
will be the theme of conver-
sation among the gossips
for the next nine days."
Waxed orange blossoms.
which brides in England
carried in their bouquets,
were often seen as too racy
for Victorian Ontario. The
blossoms, like myrtle,
were emblems of fertility
and represented Venus. the
goddess of love. Even
though Queen Victoria
referred to her wedding
trip as a •honeymoon,..
many blushed at the term.
It's direct reference to the
sweetness of the first
month of marriage was
considered by many in the
mid -19th -century as too ris-
que
The forerunner of the wed-
ding trip or honeymoon
was a buggy procession to
and from the church. The
popularity of the pair was
measured by the number in
the procession following
the couple in their ride
after the ceremony.
Country weddings today
are often a dream of
couples who want to add a
special warmth and sense
of tradition to their wed-
ding. Images of a bride
and groom leaving the
church in a horse-drawn
carriage has a perennial
appeal. For those who
want to recapture some of
the charms of an old-
fashioned country wed-
ding, they will find Black
Creek Pioneer Village the
perfect location.
A wedding at Black Creek
has a special magic. Set
amidst an 1860's village
and gardens, it is the
perfect backdrop for wed-
ding pictures.
Black Creek offers three
charming locations for
weddings. The Fi hest rville
Church with its raised
pulpit and enchanting sim-
picity will hold up to lou
guests. The Town Hall, a
pre -Confederation centre
for community business,
has seating for 90 guests.
Built in 1824, the Mennonite
Meeting House is one of the
oldest buikitin& in Ontario
and holds 90 people.
Couples can arrange for
candlelight services in any
of these venues. '.Bost wed-
dings and reception are
held after 5:30 p.m., when
the Village is closed to the
public.
Black Creek offers full
catering and reception
facilities, also. The Half
Way House in the Village is
a 19th -century dining room
with a stone -faced
fireplace that provides an
intimate dining and danc-
ing atmosphere for 75
guests. The modern
Visitor's Centre contain
two reception venues: the
Victoria Room, which
features a unique Cana-
diana atmosphere, suits
groups of up to 90 guests for
dinner and dancing: the
Canada West Room, which
is decorated with 19th -
century antiques, accom-
modates up to 120 guests
for dinner and dancing.
Add a truly authentic and
romantic touch to vour
wedding. Imagine the in-
timacy of saying your vows
amidst the soft glow of a
candlelight service. Plan

Brand New CNE Ball Park
Thirty-two teams from
across Ontario have
qualified for the 1994 Cana-
dian National Exhibition
Pee Wee Baseball Tourna-
ment. While the tourna-
ment was absent from last
year's CNE, the players
are returning to a brand
new ball park for 10 days of
baseball.
Since 1956, the CNE has
hosted the Pee Wee Tour-
nament as part of its
diverse Sports Program.
Among the 32 teams
qualified for the tourna-
ment are Ajax, Agincourt,
East York, Leaside, North
York, West Hill, Toronto
Greenwood and Toronto
Playgrounds.
The demand for entries is
so great that teams must
play preliminary games
just to be accepted. For
most kids in the Pee Wee
age group, this is THE
tournament. Where else
can you get into a fair for
free, play a ball game, and
then have the rest of the
day to hit the Midway, go
on all the rides, eat till
you're stuffed, and then go
home to bed tired?
The 1994 CNE is open from
Fri. Aug. 19th to Mon. Sept.
5th.

AL FRESCO
When Shakespeare wrote
that "the play's the thing"
he couldn't have realized or
cared, if he did -the pro-
blem bequeathed to
reviewers of his plays.
Some of them are better
than others -we mean the
plays -but all are good and
so, we can only assess their
performances.
The Canadian Stage Com-
panv's presentation of
Twelfth Night in High Park
is interesting and en-
joyable but not in equal
Measure For Measure. As
You Like It or not, the
former consideration
outweighs the latter.
In positive terms, the
production is well set up
with good scene design. ef-
fective lighting and authen-
tic, albeit eclectic. costum-
ing.
The original music. com-
posed and performed by
Phvllis Cohen is pleasant
and would have been ap-
proved by Shakespeare
who. after all, aspired
more to writing songs than
plays.
The direction' Well frank-
ly, there doesn't seem to
have been much of it. We
say that because there is no
consistency in the perfor-
mances of the actors. At
the good end of the spec-
trum there's that of
Michael Hanrahan as
16Uvolio. It's crisp. clear
and beautifully
understated. At the other.
there's the Orsino of
Patrick Galligan bellowing
like a moose in rut.
Somewtter+e in between
there is the Gallagher and
Shean of Benedict Camp-
bell and Steve Cvmyn as
Belch and Aguecteek.
All performances are, at
least technically. good but
appear to be those of actors
more or less cast out on
their resources by a direc-
tor who has concentrated
on production effects at the
expense of those perfor-
mances.
That director. Jeannette
Lambermont, appears to
confuse gimmickry with
novelty. Malvolio peddling
a bicycle and O rsin n riding
a motorcycle is silly. So too
are the oversized props
such as Oli%la's ring given
to Cesano, the jewel from
(ksino to Olivia. the valise
carried by Aguecheek.
And. w,.inell must Feste
the fool sit in a swing save
that it's attached to one of
High Park's stately trees?
No doubt Mlle. Lamber-
rnont is in love with her
work but Love's Labour's
Lost and the audience is
left with Much Ado About
Nothing.

summer madness'

Although its summer-

,has lots to offer around the
city. The show "Viva Las

its 2nd anniversary this
.September at The Old Scott

great three course dinner
with a fabulous cabaret
show.
I've seen the show twice
and can highly recommend
it for that special occasion.
At 520 Progress Ave. the
cost is $48.% per person for
dinner and show. Phone

AT STAGE %'EST
We've written before
about Legends: A Tribute
To The Superstars at Stage
West Theatre Restaurant.
It -usually rums on Mondays
when the theatre is dark
i Theatre parlance, mean-
ing not in other use.
It's now running nightly
from Tuesday to this Sun-
day. Two performances on
Sunday. Legends is a well
nigh perfect show for enter-
taining summer guests
from out of town.
Following Legends is the
statuesque June Wilkinson
in Pyjama Tops. The play
must be sixty or more
years old and is, as the title
suggests, a bedroom farce
Morrison. Call Box Office
396-4049 for further details.
Other great shows in
Metro which are light and
appealing are "Forever
Plaid" at the New Yorker
Theatre and "Crazy For
You" at the Royal Alexan-
dra. In September we start
our community theatre
again with some great
shows from all groups.
More about this later.
Volunteers For Basketball
Basketball fans have a
great opportunity to get in
the thick of the action with
the upcoming Geo World
3 -on -3 Festival and help Big
Brothers of Metro as well.
The agency is looking for
volunteers, 18 and older, to
assist with the festival's
numerous and varied ac-
tivities.
On Aug. 13 and 14, the
Geo World 3 -on -3 Festival
will take over the
downtown portion of Yonge
St., featuring competition
by an expected 700 teams
as well as a variety of
special events and
challenges. Proceeds from
the festival will go to sup-
port the Big Brothers'
friendship program for
fatherless boys.
Volunteers need not be
knowledgeable about
basketball. although that
would be helpful for certain
tasks. Responsibilities will
vary from the set up and
mnnitlrine of ema'ts- to

Branson, Missouri - Fastest
Growing Music Centre
Andy Williams, one of the
most personable per-
formers in America today,
knows exactly where his
audiences are coming
from. Looking out at the
sea of friendly facts in his
usually sold -out Moon
River Theater, he asks the
crowd to give a warm
Branson. Missouri
welcome to the group of
visitors from Canada.
Fun -loving travellers
from coast to coast have
caught onto the fact that
some of the best, and most
affordable entertainment
today is to be found in a lit-
tle town in the American
midwest. Branson.
Missouri, with its 3,743 per-
manent residents is just a
tiny dot on most atlases;
however, with over six
million visitors busing, fly-
ing and driving in each
your, this community is on
the entertainment map,
big-time.
Nestled in the rolling
Ozark hills, an hour south
of the city of Springfield,
Branson has become a
musical magnet. Andy
Williams, Tonv Orlando,
Bobby Vinton, Moe Bandy,
Roy Clark and the Osmond
Brothers are just a few of
the big -name stares who
have opened multi-million
dollar showcase facilities
in this entertainment cen-
tre.
There are now more than
30 nightclubs and theatres
which offer daily perfor-
mances from early spring
through Christmas. There
is no gambling in Branson,
and that could be why the
shows, hotels and
restaurants are so modest-
ly priced, and aimed
squarely at the family
market.
One just has to check the
licence plates on the tour
buttes and the cars in the
parking lots to see how
man• Canadians drive to
Branson. As well, there
are now a number of
packages linking the near-
by Springfield Airport with
several northern cities.
Branson is home to the 2, 3
and 4 -day weekender and is
a place where Canadians
can sample the best coun-
try and popular music
without breaking the bank
or eating up too much vaca-
tion time.
The 3D major theatres in
Branson seat between 700
and 2.200 people for each
show. With such large
buildings selling out night-
ly, the entertainers have
been able to keep the ticket
prices affordable. It is
possible to get a ticket to
see an Andy Williams per-
formance for only $18 US.
Why are the big name per-
formers giving up touring
and settling in Branson'
Tony Orlando, a singer
whose string of hits is
almost as impressive as his
new $9 million, 200 seat
music hall probably says it
best. "This ( Branson ) is a
real dream come true.
After all the years of
travelling on the road, go-
ing from town to town, now
my family and I and our en-
tire company can settle
down and concentrate on
one thing — giving the peo-
ple the best shows I know
how to give."
Since performers like
Williams and Orlando ac-
tually live in the area,
visitors might meet up with
them out fishing on Table
Rock Lake or while golfing
out on the links. This part
of Missouri has some of the
finest outdoor recreational
attractions in the midwest.

way to becoming the fami-
