PICKERING -- A group of White Sheaf Lane neighbours are unhappy with a cell tower
that recently went up behind their homes. A Pickering councillor is attempting to get
the federal government to put in stricter regulations regarding cell towers in the com-
munity. Some of the concerned residents are, from left, Sue Hollingshead, Hannah
Hollingshead, Allison Hollingshead, and Zaid Alhasani.

PICKERING -- The federal government
has put a hold on a Rogers cellphone tower
that’s under construction next to a Pickering
church.
In April, the City of Pickering sent a letter
to Minister of Industry Tony Clement, asking
that the ministry, which oversees the instal-
lation of cell towers, put a halt on the tower
going up at Amberlea Presbyterian Church
at Whites Road and Strouds Lane, and that it
look into moving it to a more suitable loca-
tion.
According to current legislation, towers
that are less than 15 metres in height do not
require consultation with municipalities or
residents. The tower set to go up at the church
will be just under, at 14.9 metres.
Industry Canada has ordered the work on
the site to cease until it can review the mat-
ter.
Although pleased with the response, coun-
cil didn't stop at the Amberlea tower. On May
16 council passed another motion asking
the government cease further consideration
of communication towers in any residential
area of Pickering in order to hold discussions
with the City to establish criteria for their
installation.
Residents in other parts of Pickering have
come forward, also complaining about cell
towers that have sprouted up across the
municipality.

Metroland’s Durham newspapers
lauded for editorial excellence
FAST FACTS
Faces of the Future
goes out with a bang
With its 10th anniversary edition, Faces of the Future
wound up an award-winning run with a second-
place finish for Best Special Section at the Ontario
Community Newspaper Association Better News-
papers Awards celebration May 13.
In the annual Faces of the Future publication,
Metroland Media Group’s Durham Region news-
papers have profiled more than 3,000 outstanding
elementary and high school students over the last
10 years.
What started out as a small section profiling
high schoolers who excel in the arts or sports, grew
to see participation from every elementary and high
school in Durham Region.
“Each year the making of Faces was a six-
month project beginning in January with a call for
nominations from local schools, through the spring
when we photographed nearly 500 students, to
the June distribution,” said editor-in-chief Joanne
Burghardt.
“It was a challenge organizing the more than
200 schools in the region, but we loved doing it.”
But all good things eventually run their course.
“Regrettably, the 2010 10th anniversary edi-
tion was our last,” said Mrs. Burghardt. “But we have
plans for more special projects that will spotlight
great things happening all across Durham Region.”

Durham food banks need your help this spring
Spring and summer
are tough times for
local food banks
JILLIAN FOLLERT
jfollert@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Spring and sum-
mer are tough times to be a food
bank client.
With Easter gone and Thanks-
giving six months away, it’s the
time of year when donations
plummet while demand stays
constant.
“It’s hard to make it through
the summer to the next time
people are generous; we really
need to boost our supply,” says
Sandy Brittain, executive direc-
tor at Feed the Need in Dur-
ham.
With that in mind the agen-
cy recently kicked off its spring
food drive with a goal of collect-
ing 100,000 pounds of food and
raising $10,000 by the end of
June.
It may sound like a stagger-
ing amount, but Feed the Need’s
member agencies, including
those in Ajax and Pickering,
need between 140,000 and
150,000 pounds of food every
month.
Similar to the Daily Bread
Food Bank in Toronto, Feed the
Need acts as a central distribu-
tion hub that sends donated
food to 45 food banks, shelters,
soup kitchens and outreach
centres in Durham Region..
Ms. Brittain says several fac-
tors are putting pressure on
local food banks including the
rising cost of food, the fact that
it’s too early in the year for peo-
ple to grow their own food and
cash-strapped students who
start to run out of loan money
by this point in the year.
An estimated 41 per cent of
food bank recipients are chil-
dren, while 56 per cent have
a serious illness or disability.
About 20 per cent are adults
who have jobs, but still can’t
afford to put food on the table,
often described as the working
poor.
Ms. Brittain is challenging
Durham residents to organize
food drives or fundraisers at
work, in their neighbourhood or
through a service club or social
group they belong to.
Money donated to Feed the
Need is used to buy food in bulk
directly from manufacturers at
reduced prices negotiated by
the Ontario Association of Food
Banks.
Every dollar donated goes four
or fives times further than $1
spent in a grocery store.
With gardening season around
the corner, Ms. Brittain said
it would also be great to see
home gardeners and local farm-
ers plant an extra row or two of
produce to donate to Feed the
Need.
“We really want people to stop
and think about the fact that
there are people in Durham
who don’t have enough food to
eat, or don’t have good, nutri-
tious food to eat,” she said.
Food donations can be
dropped off at the Feed the
Need warehouse at 125 Clar-
ence Biesenthal Dr. in Oshawa.
Large donations will be picked
up by Feed the Need.

SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND
OSHAWA -- Warehouse manager John MacFarlane worked to move skids of food at the Feed the
Need warehouse this spring. The organization, which supplies food to food banks and outreach orga-
nizations throughout Durham Region, is hoping to collect 100,000 pounds of food in its spring food
drive.

DURHAM -- A 25-year-old
Orono man faces several
charges after four dogs were
shot and killed during the
holiday weekend.
Durham Regional Police
were called to a home on
Taunton Road in Orono Sun-
day, May 22 around 12:30
p.m. Police had received a
report of several dead dogs
at the home that were shot
inside the residence.
The Humane Society of
Durham Region was noti-
fied and investigation agent
Leanna Hazelton went to
the home.
“It was difficult to see the
dead dogs, killed by some-
one. It was very upsetting,”
Ms. Hazelton said. “The
police called the shelter and
the shelter called me. At that
point I went and removed
the animals. The police
investigated. They did their
investigation and then they
called us.”
The police had removed
the people before she
arrived, Ms. Hazelton said.
She removed live animals,
including an adult female
dog, a cat, a chinchilla and
11 puppies. All were healthy,
she added.
The puppies are about
one to two weeks old. Seven
of the puppies are a beagle-
type mix, while four are a
lab-cross mix, she said.
Ms. Hazelton has been
an investigator for 12 years
and says of the situation,
“It’s pretty horrific, very
upsetting, very upsetting.
I’ve never seen nothing like
this.”
The puppies “appear to be
healthy. The puppies have
been fostered out.”
The mother of the puppies
was killed, Ms. Hazelton
said. “They have no mother
to assist them.”
The puppies will be avail-
able for adoption when they
reach eight to 10 weeks.
The adult dog is available
for adoption now. When she
went to remove the female
dog, which is a husky mix,
she was “drooling and had
her tail between her legs.
She was upset.”
All the puppies were
found in a small crate, hud-
dled together.
“Animal cruelty is a major
issue in Durham Region
and all regions. If you see it,
report it. Give us as much
information as possible.
Pick up the phone and call
us. That would be helpful,”
Ms. Hazelton noted.
Police seized a rifle and
several additional items
from the residence.
Joe Tucker, of Taunton
Road in Orono, has been
charged with careless use of
a firearm; careless storage of
a firearm; and four counts
of killing animals other than
cattle. He was released on
an undertaking with condi-
tions.
For information on adopt-
ing any of the animals, call
the Humane Society of Dur-
ham Region at 905-665-
7430.

COURTS
Crown concludes
case in Pickering
homicide
Khristian Ottley
was gunned down
in 2008
JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- The Crown has com-
pleted its case against Damion
Pearson, accused of the shotgun
killing of a Pickering man in 2008.
Prosecutor JulieAnn Barrett told
court Friday morning the Crown’s
evidence had been entered. Jurors
return Wednesday to hear from
the defence.
The final evidence jurors heard
Friday was expert testimony that
links shotgun shells found in Mr.
Pearson’s car with the ammuni-
tion that was used to kill Khristian
Ottley on Jan. 14, 2008.
Mr. Pearson has pleaded not
guilty to first-degree murder. The
Crown contends Mr. Pearson
lured Mr. Ottley to a remote spot
on Valley Farm Road on the night
of Jan. 14, 2008, then got into the
back seat of the victim’s car with
a shotgun concealed under his
clothing.
Mr. Pearson is accused of fir-
ing a point-blank shot through
the driver’s seat, into Mr. Ottley’s
back.
During the trial, which began in
April, jurors have heard Mr. Pear-
son fostered a grudge against Mr.
Ottley over a perceived insult,
and enlisted others to help him
carry out the killing. One witness,
whose identity is protected by a
publication ban, testified he was
in the car when Mr. Pearson shot
Mr. Ottley.
Next week jurors will learn how
the lead defence lawyer Brian Ross
plans to counter the Crown’s case,
and whether or not Mr. Pearson
will testify in his own defence.
Mr. Pearson is not obligated to
present evidence.
CRIME
More Durham victims of spa
scam reported to police
DURHAM -- It appears more
victims have been taken in by a
scammer peddling fraudulent
spa packages in Durham Region.
Police have released a photo of
suspect Richard Scott, for whom
an arrest warrant was issued last
week. Police said more victims
have come forward and the num-
ber of people believed to have
been taken in by the scam now
numbers 20. They’ve lost a total
of $1,300, police said.
Police say a man has been
knocking on doors, presenting
professional-looking sales pam-
phlets and selling certificates to
actual spa businesses.
It’s only when a call is made to
book an appointment with the
spa company that the victims
find out the promotion does not
exist and that the packages are
fake.
Mr. Scott, 53, of no fixed address,
is wanted for fraud under $5,000
and breach of conditions.

TRAFFIC
Ajax woman charged in Pickering
collision on holiday weekend Five people receive
minor injuries
PICKERING -- An Ajax driver is
charged after an SUV crashed on
Hwy 401 in Pickering Saturday
evening.
According to Ontario Provincial
Police, around 7:47 p.m. an Olds-
mobile SUV was driving slightly
faster than the posted speed limit
in the eastbound collector lanes of
the Hwy 401, east of Whites Road.
A witness reported the SUV was
overtaking a slower vehicle, when
the SUV braked and swerved to
avoid hitting the slower vehicle,
causing the SUV to fishtail several
times before striking the left guard-
rail and rolling onto its side.
“There was no major (highway)
closure,” said OPP Sergeant Dave
Woodford.
The SUV’s five occupants suf-
fered minor injuries and were all
treated and released from hospi-
tal.
Tracey Gallagher, 42, of Ajax, is
charged with driving with more
than .08 mgs. of alcohol. She was
released on a promise to appear.
Provincial Constable J. Brown
from the Whitby OPP Detachment
is investigating the collision and
can be reached at 905-668-3388.
HEALTH DATA
Opposed to class
action law suit
To the editor:
I was galled this week that my family
should receive notice that we have been
included as part of a class action lawsuit
against the Durham Region health depart-
ment due to a USB memory stick that was
lost on Dec. 16, 2009.
Undoubtedly this loss was reprehensible,
but does it call for financially hurting our
over-burdened, under-funded health-care
system?
I think not.
I object to the fact that we have been
included in this lawsuit.
What is perhaps even more galling is that
the online option to opt out of the class
action transmits personal information in
plain text and, like the lost USB stick, does
not use encryption!
Michael Guy
Oshawa
*** To the editor:
My wife and I each received a document
in the mail asking if we wanted to join in
on a class action suit against the Durham
health department after a computer stick
encoded with the information was lost
during the H1N1 inoculations.
It’s still not clear to me how the infor-
mation may have caused me any injury or
loss.
But in the day of the information super-
highway there still could be someone out
there plotting to steal my house. That’s
when my wife and I looked at each other
and thought we’ve been watching too
many television crime dramas.
Then again, I thought this could be our
opportunity to get something for little
effort from government coffers.
Look at those high-paid executives who,
when fired for doing a lousy job, receive a
huge severance package.
After all, I spent my hard-earned dollars
at a community college and graduated with
a diploma only to find a year later Bill 101
was passed and my Grade 7 French wasn’t
going to cut it in the field of advertising as a
copy writer.
Did I ask to be compensated? No, I took
whatever job I could and kept paying my
taxes. And what about the fact that we’re a
childless couple?
The tax man says you must pay through
the nose for that. I could go on with count-
less reasons why we should join this class
action suit but my sense of right and wrong
hasn’t let me yet.
Maybe it’s the words of John F. Kennedy
‘Ask not what your country can do for you,
but what you can do for your country’ that
instills that sense of patriotism in me.

CONTROVERSY
AIDs campaign elements
‘profoundly disrespectful’
To the editor:
Re: ‘Durham school board bans edgy
AIDS Committee campaign’, news article,
durhamregion.com, May 18, 2011.
How much a thing is respected can be
gauged by the language that surrounds it.
The language explicitly referred to by the
cat and rooster images employed by the
AIDs Committee of Durham betrays utter
disregard for, and a deep vulgarization of,
the beautiful nature of sexual interaction.
Lindsay Chartier observes that “speak-
ing to youth in clinical language doesn’t
get through to them, but something that’s
humorous and fun does,” thereby infer-
ring that the cheapening of the male and
female anatomy through pornographic
nomenclature is “humorous and fun”.
Such language has an ugly attraction, of
course, for those who treat sex as a hard-
core recreation, but those who under-
stand the act to be the most intimate
physical expression of love know the cat
and rooster images for what they are: a
profoundly disrespectful assault on sex
and, ironically for the AIDs Committee of
Durham, an incitement to the sort of sex-
ual activity that will spread disease.

Durham heroes took charge when fate intervened
They are at once perfectly alike and
entirely different. Driven by circumstance,
a turn of fate, or being in the right place
at the right time, they all took action and
turned something potentially tragic into
tales of heroism.
They are the selfless residents in Dur-
ham Region -- one as young as nine -- who
make difficult decisions in an emergency
and who were awarded for their bravery
last week by Durham Region and the Dur-
ham Regional Police Service.
There was Jade Clement, a nine-year-
old Newcastle girl who saved her mother
from drowning in the family bath tub dur-
ing a medical episode.
There was Scugog resident Peter Parker
who sprang into action last fall and helped
rescue two boaters whose vessel had cap-
sized and threw them into the hypotherm-
ia-inducing water of Lake Scugog in late
fall.
There was Alisa Godfrey of Pickering
who disregarded her own personal safe-
ty to intervene in a violent domestic dis-
pute. Whitby resident Jason Fulton saw a
Durham police officer struggling with an
impaired and agitated suspect and helped
subdue him.
Other heroes included Kim Owens, who
came to the aid of a stabbing victim who
later succumbed to his injuries, a group of
area residents who banded together to res-
cue four from a burning home in Whitby,
and an off-duty York Regional Police Ser-
vice officer who was struck by a driver in
medical distress and who provided emer-
gency medical aid.
All of these people were going about
their lives when fate called them to act.
Their backgrounds couldn’t be more dis-
similar, but their response to an emergen-
cy was universally admirable: they took
action.
We can all rest just a little easier know-
ing that fellow Durham Region residents
-- neighbours, acquaintances, co-workers
-- are willing to set aside their own con-
cerns and reach out to help others in a
time of need.
We acknowledge the heroic actions
of each of these people, celebrate their
achievements and admire their courage.
The future will bring other life-or-death
crises, emergencies that arise in a flash in
our everyday existence. They will chal-
lenge other individuals in Durham to take
action or take flight.
It’s comforting to know that we have
people like Jade Clement, Peter Parker,
Jason Fulton and Kim Owens living in our
midst.
It’s doubly comforting to know there are
others out there just like them.

Re: ‘Durham school board bans edgy
AIDS Committee campaign’, news, dur-
hamregion.com, May 18, 2011.
I was interested in your criticism of the
DDSB for not allowing the AIDs educa-
tional material into the schools.
You describe the slogans with the cat
and the rooster as “edgy” and “cheeky” but
at no time did you actually use the “same
language that kids use today”.
Could it be that such language is not
appropriate for a family community news-
paper? Would such language be offensive
to your readership?
You didn’t have the courage to put the
two vulgarities into print but you seem to
think that this language is appropriate for
a classroom.

Re: ‘Boobie’ bracelets cause controversy
at Oshawa high school’ news, durhamre-
gion.com, May 10, 2011.
I cannot believe the fuss over the “boo-
bie” bracelets in Durham schools.
Who are these rule makers and when
and where did they grow up?
Is this the only issue they have time to
waste on, rather than the quality of our
children and grandchildren’s education?
This is 2011 and my family has had its
brushes with breast cancer.
We support all cancer research by donat-
ing, buying bracelets, T-shirts etc.
I lost my father to prostate cancer and we
all wear the bracelet to support that.
If any of these bureaucrats would take
the time to research the issue, they would
find that innovative ways are needed to get
younger people to be concerned and sup-
port breast cancer.
Read the statistics.
There is a large number of men and boys
who do not emotionally support breast
cancer victims, especially in the younger
segment of the population.
And for gosh sakes, kids see and hear a
lot worse words every day.

Re: ‘Durham school board bans edgy
AIDS Committee campaign’, news article,
durhamregion.com, May 18, 2011.
As a parent, a gay man and a Durham
District School Board administrator, I am
unclear how you feel this campaign is
appropriate.
Speaking as a parent first, I would be
mortified if my child came home from
school with a shirt with this slogan: a slo-
gan that you yourself won’t even print out
the words.
The argument that students using this
“street language” makes it OK is ludicrous.
As a gay man, I fully support AIDs Dur-
ham, and in fact sit on a committee with
their representative as a community mem-
ber and DDSB representative.
Having this poster in bars or social situ-
ations with adults is one thing; in a public
school entirely another.
There is a time and place for shock value
-- my child’s school is not that place.

When was the last time you looked at a
picture of you as a kid? Hopefully you have
one. If you don’t, try and locate one. On the
journey through life it can be a handy little
talisman.
I have a picture of me on my computer
desktop. I’m probably six or seven years
old. I keep it on my computer, only because
I come here every day and spend most of
my working hours on the computer. So I see
this kid a lot. I like this kid. He’s not cool or
hip or packing a ‘tude of any kind. He’s not
worried or angry or concerned about the
state of the world. He’s not trying to impress
or please anyone. He’s just me ... back when
not much else mattered. And he’s happy.
He’s a content little guy. His eyes are bright,
his smile is open and inviting, he’s in love
with life. I really like this kid.
And it gives me a great deal of comfort
some days, those days when the carefree
delight of childhood seems light years ago,
to know that that kid is still inside me, some-
where. To know that in spite of whatever the
fret du jour might be, I still have that inno-
cent, pure love of life burning inside me at
some level. That I still have the uncorrod-
ed wisdom of that child somewhere in my
soul. That I am still attached to bliss.
Unlike the biblical school of thought
that says we are conceived in sin and must
spend a lifetime seeking redemption, I am
of the opinion that we are at our most pure,
most God-like when we are very young. We
then spend a lifetime trying very hard to
remember the important stuff we came into
this life knowing as easily and automatical-
ly as how to breathe. Who, after all, enjoys
life more than a child? Who better embod-
ies joy, laughter, love, than children? Who
lives more completely in the only place that
matters ... the moment ... than kids?
When my own children were very young
I didn’t need any photos on my comput-
er. I had two wonderfully animated tutori-
als underfoot most of the time. And try as
I might, in my adult fashion, to get wound
up in worry or lost perspective, my boys
would inevitably take my hand and merrily
lead me back to what mattered; play, imagi-
nation, creativity, fun. And never a word of
judgment either. Children, bless them for-
ever, never chide us for forgetting. They just
gently redirect us back to our original com-
pass point.
And maybe that’s why I have that kid on
my computer. The unclouded light in his
eyes is like magnetic north to me. That place
that I know I can and should always come
back to. That place of wonder and delight,
of peace and ease, of absolute clarity. That
smiling, happy little boy is a touchstone
for me. A reminder, in those times when I
have forgotten, that he is much more than
just a pleasant window into a simpler time
or a voice calling from the past. He is my
essence. He is the very best of me. And he is
still very much alive.

An AIDs Committee of Durham educational pamphlet and T-shirts with provocative imagery is being rejected by school board officials. After seeing images from the educational campaign, do you think it’s too edgy for high school students?
I think it is too much. This isn’t appropriate for our high school students. (39%)
What’s the big problem? I think the images perfectly suit the message and the audience. (44%)
I’m on the fence. After seeing the images, I agree that it should resonate with youth, but can understand the concerns raised by the school board. (16%)

On boobies, a backlash and AIDs awareness
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Is scooping
ourselves bad?
Oscar Wilde once wrote: “He has no
enemies, but is intensely disliked by his
friends.”
I feel that way about the Internet...some-
times. It is a great tool, a place to share and
discover new ideas, but every now and then,
it can bite you in the ass.
Last week, we received an e-mail from
some students at R.S. McLaughlin telling
us some of them were being suspended
because they were wearing bracelets with
the word ‘boobies’ on them in support of
breast cancer research.
Wow, a great story. Students, suspensions
and boobies. A no-brainer.
A few hours later reporter Jillian Follert
had interviewed the students, the school
board, and we had a picture of the students
and the offending bracelets.
Normally, there are two ways we handle
stories such as this, where we are the only
media who are aware of the issue. We time it
to come up on our web site the same day it
goes into the paper or we run it right away.
In this case, the Wednesday, May 11 paper
had a story and editorial about the 10th
anniversary of UOIT, so we decided to hold
the story and picture for the Thursday, May
12 newspapers.
The story, however, went up on our web-
site that Tuesday afternoon, and when it hit
the Internet all hell broke loose.
Media from all across Canada and the U.S.,
including CNN, quickly picked up the story.
We have a game we play sometimes in the
newsroom when we count how many min-
utes it takes CP24 to see one of our head-
lines on our website before it appears on
their television ticker. In this case, it didn’t
take long.What we had done, in fact, was
scoop ourselves.
Our original story with additional com-
ments ran Thursday, the same day students
and parents held a protest in front of the
school. We then ran that story with pictures
and video in Friday’s paper.
But that didn’t stop one person from
phoning the office and asking if we were
aware of the Toronto media coverage of the
issue. Yes, we were.

DURHAM -- Who believes in luck? How
about coincidence? Regardless of wheth-
er you do or do not, sometimes it seems
that things happen for a reason. The reason
may not always be clear. Witness a mystery
wrapped ever so cleverly inside a riddle, a
riddle without seeming resolution that took
a Whitby man on a life-changing journey --
that led right back here to Durham Region.
Very recently, thanks to a chain of possible
circumstantial events, George and Yvonne
Watters, owners of a flourishing Whitby-
based 20-year-old promotional marketing
firm, Watters Marketing, Inc., decided to
explore a new business venture. And it all
had to do with the Titanic. No, not the Celine
Dion chest-thumping version, but the actual
ship Titanic and true events that transpired
almost 100 years ago.
George Watters is an avuncular gentleman
who, prior to immigrating to Canada, lived
for 29 years in the city of Belfast, northern
Ireland. These days, his wife Yvonne sends
George packing, back to his original home-
land “to shine up his Belfast accent” and visit
his three brothers, their families and numer-
ous friends almost annually. The last time
was a few months ago, in November 2010.
There was nothing unusual about this par-
ticular visit. Until, that is, George decided to
hop on a local bus and head into the city.
Many are the times George had done this
very same thing. This day, however, would
prove to be different.
He stopped at Belfast City Hall and decid-
ed to go inside. Why? He’s still uncertain.
Remember, this man had lived in this town
for 29 years and had never before ventured
into this glorious old building.
As it turned out, there was an exhibition
on display of the once venerable shipbuild-
ing business, Harland and Wolff -- which
had also been George’s first employer out
of school. This company’s greatest claim to
fame was as the builders of the Titanic, an
enormous undertaking that brought both
prosperity and infamy to the city at the begin-
ning of the 20th century.
When this gigantic vessel was finally
launched on May 31, 1911, it was the largest,
most luxurious ship ever to be built. A truly
outstanding accomplishment, the Titanic
was an almost 900-foot-long floating city built
with every luxury and, at the time, technolog-
ical advancement available. No expense, it
seemed, was spared. She was able to accom-
modate close to 3,600 passengers and crew,
with a displacement of over 52,000 tons and
a top speed of 43 km/h. An engineering mar-
vel to be sure.
Walking through the complete exhibit like
a tourist, George stopped and picked out a
number of souvenir items, mementoes of
his visit and of an era long gone by. All items
from the small gift shop were imprinted ‘RMS
Titanic’. George spoke with the young lady
working that day and inquired about the gift
items. Seems there was a local connection.
Two brothers, Ed and Stephen Larkin, were
the owners of White Star Momentos (sic)
and ran their booming little souvenir busi-
ness from a location in a small town called
Carrickfergus, some 18 kilometres outside of
Belfast. Long story short, the three business-
men hammered out an arrangement and
George Watters started to make plans to set
up a distributorship for RMS Titanic licensed
gifts and souvenirs upon his return to Cana-
da.
Back home in Whitby, exhausted but exhil-
arated, George did some additional research.
The products the Larkins were selling were
also being sold to an Atlanta, Georgia-based
company called Premier Exhibitions, owned
by George Tulloch; Premier is the sole
licensed organization which has been sal-
vaging and retrieving actual Titanic artifacts
from the icy depths of the Atlantic Ocean
since 1987.
Quickly things began to fall into place. Pre-
mier Exhibitions also had a travelling RMS
Titanic Exhibit that criss-crossed the North
American continent. Days after returning
home, George discovered this same exhibit
was to be at the museum in Kitchener, Ontar-
io. Before too long, George headed down the
401 to see for himself the real deal; genuine
Titanic artifacts. The Titanic bug was begin-
ning to really take hold.
Exploring the exhibit further convinced
George that he needed to be in the Titanic
business. At the exhibit, George stumbled
upon a postcard on display that was found
on board the Titanic, stuffed inside a leather
pouch. This postcard, although water-dam-
aged, was of a Baptist church in Oshawa.
George hurriedly sketched the church’s
image and brought it home. To this day,
the owner of the pouch and the postcard
remains a mystery. But there appears to be a
local connection which George explored fur-
ther at the Oshawa Museum. Not only was
the postcard genuine, the church did exist.
The bigger question? How did a postcard
showing this Oshawa church end up on the
Titanic? To whom did it originally belong? Is
there another coincidental connection yet to
be discovered?
Before we get all caught up in Twilight Zone
moments, it gets better. Shortly after the Wat-
ters launched their new business selling RMS
Titanic gifts and souvenirs, George received
a telephone call from a woman in Whitby by
the name of Kendra Edwards Wilson who,
along with her son, Terry, is related to Harold
Bride –- a surviving radio operator from the
Titanic. And here is where things really take a
turn for the weird, in an oddly pleasant way.
When Terry was graduating from Durham
College in Oshawa a few years ago, Ms. Wil-
son read an article about a previous gradu-
ate, a young fellow named Andrew Phillips.
The alumni office at Durham College wrote
a story about his relative, Jack Philips who,
as fate would have it, was the other wireless
operator on duty the eventful night of April
15, 1912. Mr. Philips did not survive but his
legend lives on with his family.
Talk about coincidence. Right here in Dur-
ham Region we have the descendants of two
wireless operators who served on board the
Titanic.
Interesting connections. And all discovered
by chance.
One wonders what else may come of this.
Will there be a further chapter to this tale?
Later this month on the evening of May 31,
George and Yvonne have arranged a pleasure
cruise for local Titanic aficionados on board
the Jubilee Queen in the Toronto harbour to
commemorate the 100th anniversary of the
launch of the Titanic. Will George connect
with others who, like him, have been drawn
into the mystery and intrigue that surrounds
the once magnificent sailing vessel? It would
appear that when she sank, she did not take
all her stories to the ocean floor. Some have
managed to survive and gain strength. Per-
haps others are yet to be told.
Coincidence? Happenstance? Or simply a
series of connected and unusual events? Per-
haps all of the above.
You be the judge –- and draw your own
conclusions.

Yesterday at the Comfort Inn, hundreds lined up
to cash in antiques, collectibles, gold and jewelry
at the Treasure Hunters Roadshow. The free event
is in Port Hope all week, buying gold, silver,
antiques and collectibles. One visitor I spoke with
yesterday said, “It’s unbelievable, I brought in
some old coins that had been in a little cigar box
for years and some old herringbone necklaces—in
less than fifteen minutes I left with a check for
$700. That stuff has been in my jewelry box and
dresser for at least 20 years.” Another gentleman
brought in an old Fender guitar his father had
bought years ago. The man said, “Dad had less
than fifty bucks in that guitar.” The Roadshow spe-
cialist that assisted him made a few phone calls
and a veterinarian in Seattle, Washington bought
the guitar for $5,700.00. The seller continued, “I
got another $150.00 for a broken necklace and
an old class ring. It’s not every day that someone
comes to town bringing six thousand dollars with
your name on it.”
Jeff Parsons, President of the Treasure Hunters
Roadshow, commented, “Lots of people have items
that they know are valuable but just don’t know
where to sell them. Old toys, trains, swords, gui-
tars, pocket watches or jewelry is valuable to col-
lectors. These collectors are willing to pay big
money for those items that they are looking for.”
This week’s Roadshow is the best place to
get connected with those collectors. The process is
free and anyone can bring items down to the
event. If the Roadshow specialists find items that
their collectors are interested in, offers will be
made to purchase them. About 80% of the guests
that attend the show end up selling one or more
items at the event.
Antiques and collectibles are not the only
items the Roadshow is buying. “Gold and silver
markets are soaring,” says Archie Davis, a Road-
show representative. “Broken jewelry and gold
and silver coins add up very quickly. I just finished
working with a gentleman that had an old class
ring, two bracelets and a handful of silver dollars.
His check was for over $650.00. I would say that
there were well over 100 people in here yester-
day that sold their scrap gold.”
The Roadshow continues today starting at
9am. The event is free and no appointment is
needed.
Above—Roadshow specialist, Tony Enright,
talks with a family about the gold jewelry
that they brought in.
“U.S. & CANADIAN COINS MADE BEFORE 1964
ARE THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER BY COLLECTORS.
COINS MADE BEFORE 1964 ARE 90% SILVER,
AND VALUABLE BECAUSE OF EITHER THE SILVER
CONTENT OR EVEN MORE VALUABLE IF ONE
HAPPENS TO BE A RARE DATE.”

Richard Silveira and his family live
in the area of Liverpool Road and
Finch Avenue and he was sur-
prised to wake up and see a tower
just outside of his backyard recent-
ly.
“It’s very close to the residential
area,” he said.
Stephen D’Agostino, represent-
ing Rogers Wireless, said now that
more and more people use cell-
phones for everything from tele-
phone calls to Internet applica-
tions, more of the infrastructure
will be required.
“It’s important to know the
issue with wireless today is not for
waste," he said.
He pointed out that although
communications companies are
not required to consult residents,
Rogers still held a meeting with
residents backing onto the church,
in this case in early December.
“The meeting was held and 30
members of the public came out to
talk about the site,” he said.
He argued that a Rogers repre-
sentative did call the City’s plan-
ning department, but Ward 2
Regional Councillor Jennifer
O'Connell pointed out there was
no record of a call.
Mr. D'Agostino provided infor-
mation from Health Canada that
said the technology is unlikely to
cause health effects in order to
address some resident concerns.
Ward 3 Regional Councillor Peter
Rodrigues said he’s uncomfortable
with the word “unlikely.”
Coun. O'Connell said she
believes the industry will be forced
to change, which will be caused by
public pressure.
“In the meantime we have to find
a more appropriate location in the
Amberlea neighbourhood,” she
said.
Mr. Silveira said in a phone inter-
view the next day he was pleased
with the motion's passing and
hopes the government will enter-
tain it..

PICKERING -- Durham police helped cops
from Toronto round up suspects after they
ditched a stolen car in south Pickering Fri-
day afternoon. One Toronto officer was
slightly injured when he stopped the vehi-
cle from rolling away after suspects aban-
doned it. Cops from Durham and Toronto,
assisted by Durham’s canine unit, appre-
hended two suspects.
The Toronto officers were following a
suspected stolen car that was driven to
the foot of Liverpool Road shortly after 1
p.m. The suspects fled from the vehicle,
but didn’t leave it in park.

Post huge wins
over Green Gaels,
Kahnawake
BRAD KELLY
bkelly@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- There’s an old competitive
adage that goes: To be the best, you
have to beat the best.
While the Ironheads aren’t exact-
ly chest thumping or patting them-
selves too vigorously on the back,
the Jr. B lacrosse club based in Ajax
did manage to beat the best twice
on the weekend, handing the Clar-
ington Green Gaels their first loss of
the season, 11-10, and then follow-
ing it up with an 8-7 win over Kahn-
awake who, heading into the week-
end, were a first place club in their
division.
Both wins came on their home
floor at the Ajax Community Cen-
tre, and both came in similar fash-
ion, coming from behind after trail-
ing by four goals at different stages
in the game.
The victories helped make a
statement that the Ironheads are
for real this season, improving to
6-2-0, winners of three in a row and
five of the last six.
“I think we finally made that
statement that we can be compet-
itive with anybody if we play five-
on-five lacrosse,” said head coach
Ron Reed. “We’ve been trying to
say that since the get-go. We have
to play five-on-five lacrosse to be
competitive. We can’t keep being
undisciplined and I think now
our guys are starting to get in their
heads that that’s how they have to
play.
“We are so proud of these guys
right now.”
Friday’s win was the more stun-
ning of the two, entertaining a
Green Gaels team that was 10-0
heading into the game and outscor-
ing the opposition 165-44 in the
process. The Green Gaels appeared
on the verge of running their record
to a perfect 11-0 with an 8-3 lead at
one point in the second period, and
a 10-6 advantage with 15:48 to go in
the third period. But the Ironheads
went on a five-goal run to end the
game, the winner coming off the
stick of Michael Hart with just 3:03
remaining.
Sunday the Ironheads were in
a similar situation, trailing Kahn-
awake 6-2 in the second and 7-6
with under five minutes to go in the
game. But Michael Hart scored his
second of the period to tie it, then
Craig Espinho converted on a nice
cross-crease pass from Gage Board
with just 54 seconds left for the win-
ner.
“Everyone thought of us as
underdogs against the Gaels, but
we’ve been told by the coaches
that everything is even. No one has
the upper hand,” said Espinho of
the winning weekend. “We tried
to come out with a lot of intensity
and hard work, stay positive on the
bench, no negativity, push each
other but in the right way.”
Staying grounded on the bench
helped the Ironheads battle back in
both games, added Reed.
“We just try to keep them at an
even keel,” he said about falling
behind the Green Gaels and the
message his staff preached. “Let’s
chip away and not get down. Let’s
not get down on each other. Let’s
just work hard and see what we can
do as a team. That worked.
“(Sunday) we promised each
other we weren’t going to get down
on each other, we’re just going to
work hard to get back in it. Credit to
the players and coaches. We have a
common goal and we’re preaching
a common message that’s getting
through.”
The weekend moved the Iron-
heads into second place in the Mid
East division, eight back of the first
place Green Gaels and four up on
third place Newmarket, who they
visit Wednesday.
THE SCOOP
After enjoying a heavy dose of
home games early in the regular sea-
son, the Ironheads will have just one
of their next seven games at the Ajax
Community Centre on Sunday, May 29
when they host Mississauga at 3 p.m.
Before that they visit Newmarket (May
25) and Mimico (May 27), and after,
head to Nepean (June 4), Glouces-
ter (June 5), Newmarket (June 7) and
Oakville (June 10) ... Craig Espinho
led the way Friday against the Green
Gaels with three goals and an assist,
with two goals each from Michael Hart
and former Green Gael Mike Biergard.
Cade Zulak, Julian Garritano, Josh
Kennedy and Brock Levick had one
goal each ... The loss for the Green
Gaels was their first in the regular sea-
son since June 12, 2009, a string of 32
consecutive wins ... Hart and Levick had
two goals each against Kahnawake,
with one apiece to Zulak, Gage Board,
Espinho and Biergard.
JR. B LACROSSE
Ironheads are for real
RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND
AJAX -- Ironheads leading scorer Brock Levick protects the ball from a Clarington Green Gaels player
during Friday’s Jr. B game at the Ajax Community Centre. The Ironheads won 11-10, and followed it up
with an 8-7 win over Kahnawake on Sunday afternoon.
GOLF
Scobie
wins
Spring
Classic
golf title
UXBRIDGE -- The Investors
Group Ontario Junior Spring
Classic Boys’ and Girls’ Champi-
onships came to a close on Mon-
day evening, with Matthew Sco-
bie of Ajax earned the 2011 title in
his division.
At the Junior Boys’ competition
hosted by Wooden Sticks Golf
Club in Uxbridge, Scobie grabbed
the early lead by posting a one-
under par 71 after first round
action in the 54-hole tournament.
The Deer Creek Golf Course
member widened his lead to a
six-stroke advantage as he took to
the first tee during Monday’s final
round, with Un Cho of Ancaster
and Chris Hemmerich of Kitch-
ener looking to close the gap.
Scobie, the 2010 Ontario Sum-
mer Games silver medalist, start-
ed the day with a string of bogeys
on the first three holes, add-
ing another two on the fifth and
ninth.
As the round unfolded with the
threat of lightning on the hori-
zon, Scobie wasn’t able to find
any birdies while Hemmerich
and Cho made their move on to
Scobie’s heels. Despite dropping
a final bogey on the 18th hole to
close out the day, Scobie’s early
lead kept him ahead of the field
and earned the 16-year old his
first provincial championship title
by a single stroke. His two-over
par 218 (71-69-78) also translated
into a victory in the Juvenile Boys’
division, as well as an exemption
into the 2011 Investors Group
Ontario Junior Boys’ champion-
ship.
“This win ranks right at the top,”
said Scobie, who recently won
his first Future Collegiate World
Tour event in March at Doral Golf
Resort in Miami. “Now I know
that I can compete with players
of this calibre and win, which will
give me some momentum head-
ing into the summer.”

HOCKEY
West Durham Army
strikes gold at tourney
Spring hockey
team enjoys
instant success
DURHAM -- In the first
tournament of its inaugu-
ral season, the West Dur-
ham Army hockey team
brought home the gold
medal.
The Army, a group of
2004-born hockey players
from Ajax and Pickering,
compete with other spring
hockey travel teams.
In the recent May Mad-
ness tournament, the
Army prevailed in the gold
medal game, with a solid
3-1 victory over the Gold-
en Horseshoe based, Elite
Stars.
Coming home from their
first tournament with gold
medals was a nice way for
this newly formed team
to kick off what is looking
to be a spring filled with
plenty of shinny hardware.
The purpose behind put-
ting the Army together was
to create a “locally based,
high-level spring hockey
program,” said West Dur-
ham Army’s GM and head
coach Paul Bannister.
Players were recruited
from the three local pro-
grams -- Ajax, West Hill and
Pickering -- and will play
in tournaments through-
out the spring against
other traveling teams from
Ontario, as well as some
teams from the U.S. The
young team will take to the
ice locally in a few weeks,
playing in the East End
Showdown tournament,
but for now team players
Camden Brown, Ty Petrou,
Colin Morin, Ryan John-
stone, Noah Button, Cole
Leggo, Justin Diliso, Owen
Steenson, Matthew Gib-
son, Nicholas Colangelo,
Jake Hodgson and Rachel
Bannister will enjoy their
most recent victory, while
coaches Dave Johnstone,
Nick Colangelo, Richard
Brown and Paul Bannis-
ter will be planning for the
upcoming ice rink battles.
