the Mount Royal Tennis Club, on a day when the mercury climbed to 32 degrees.The private club has held fundraisers to benefit the Children\u2019s Hospital in the past, but this was the first time that the club had opened its doors to non-members for an event.\u201cBecause it\u2019s our centennial at this location, we wanted to give something back to the community,\u201d said Westmount City Councillor and tennis club president Patrick Martin.\u201cWe are very proud to be able to participate in the great success of the fundraising effort\u201d The tournament was followed by ain ® and a cabaret show at Bice Restaurant in downtown Montreal.At press time, figures showed the event had raised around $450,000 and the Jewish General Hospital Foundation office was still accepting donations.Continued from page 3 \u201cTrains are noisy, dusty, and they represent a security problem, such as terrorism,\u201d he sald.\u201cThey do not need eight lanes.There should be an arbitrage to diminish their impact on the population\u201d.At the same time, Mackenzie argues that the economic impact that the project would have would be enormous: \u201cReal estate value in the area would witness a five-fold increase.This would translate into more taxes,\u201d he said.Francis Boisvert of Consultaxe Ltee and Cyprien Zapareniuc of Beique Legault Thout Inc.are the companies that studied the economic impact on real state values.This increase would affect neighbouring areas such as NDG and Westmount.\u201cAt the same time, we are also proposing the creation of a biotech centre, which would be beneficial both for McGill University and pharmaceutical companies,\u201d he said.The promoters are also suggesting the creation of a transportation museum to boost tourism in the area.\u201cThis is where Canada began from an economic standpoint.There is a natural theme of transportation and history in this area,\u201d he said.The promoters want to show the public that green spaces are much needed in Montreal: \u201cMontreal is one of the most industrialized cities in North America, and we want to increase green spaces,\u201d Mackenzie said.Ken McLaughlin has been walking around this area and the Turcot yards for years, and he loves the project.\u201cI would love to see the Otter Lake reclaimed.There is an enormous opportunity at Turcot Yards and it is really a shame to see it totally squandered by a lack of vision,\u201d he said.\u201cWe want the public to like this project first,\u201d Mackenzie said.\u201cWe welcome ideas from the

Rider team, a group of 13 cyclists all affiliated with the outdoor club.She has thought about participating in the MS Bike Tour for some time now.\u201cComing into contact more and more with people with MS prompted me to do the event,\u201d Dumais said this week.In fact, most of the people on the Spirit Rider team have someone close to them suffering from MS.Team captain Linda Lessard has been involved in the event for the past 17 years.She said that since her team is composed of cycling enthusiasts, training for the event will not be difficult.\u201cAII of the team are strong cyclists,\u201d Lessard said.Some cyclists do not finish, but as Lessard points out, \u201cIt\u2019s not a race \u2014 we're cycling for a cause.\u201d Dumais sees the MS Bike Tour as an enjoyable way to help.A naturally athletic person, she is proud not to own a car and spends a considerable amount of her day walking or cycling.\u201cEverybody should do a little something for a cause.\u201d she

Westmount Examiner www.westmountexaminer.com Commentary Wayne LARSEN larsenw@transcontinental.ca Brace yourself, folks, because here it comes.Yes, in just a couple of weeks the local sta- tioneries and office supply stores will be overrun by parents and school-age children, ail of them hell-bent on pillaging through the otherwise orderly aisles and shelves in a frantic search for their annual haul of school supplies.It's supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year \u2014 and there is even a popular TV commercial to prove it \u2014 but there lurks an ugly side to the happy back-to- school experience, and it comes in the form of the dreaded supply lists handed to each student on the first day of class.Never mind all the weepy sentimentality and woeful lamenting that they grow up so quickly \u2014 one of the sweetest things about having your children graduate from high school is experiencing that rush of smug relief when you pass a store in early September and see the chaotic crowd of school supply shoppers.Like some sort of twisted 'Nam flashback \u2014 but without the helicopters \u2014 you suddenly remember the rush of the crowd, the lunging hands, the smell of the new coloured pencils and erasers, and the unprintable exclamations of frustrated parents as they realize that there's a separate list for each class.You know there\u2019s a problem when you see a kid, on the verge of tears, yelling at her exasperated mother, \u201cBut it can\u2019t be a pink binder \u2014 the teacher says it has to be fuchsia!\u201d Ask any parent in the checkout line and they'll invariably blame teachers for making things painfully complicated by demanding so many specific items, many of which are next to impossible to obtain after the first wave of shoppers have swept through the stores on their frantic scavenger hunt.Colour-coded binders may look good in the classroom, but they are totally unnecessary.Back in the good old days \u2014 not that long ago \u2014Bids chose their own binders and nobody seemed to care about the colour or design.Instead of relying on a strict system of colour-coordination, they had a foolproof method of telling which binder was for what class \u2014 they wrote MATH or PHYSICS on the front.It really was that simple.and though many of today\u2019s teachers might not believe it, it worked like a charm.2 My to the editor Westmount-Ville Marie Liberals should choose To the editor: There have been many complaints, including those from B'nai Brith and the Montreal Gazette, about the selection of Joceylon Coulon as the Liberal candidate in the forthcoming Outremont by-election.The controversial selection of Coulon by Stéphane Dion could cost the Liberals votes and may lead to their losing this seat.This could probably have been avoided it there was a nomination meeting, as was held in the Papineau riding.which was won by Justin Trudeau.In fact, such meetings are the usual practice.Giving the local party the right to choose their candidate 1s a democratic procedure and should be followed, when elections are held.Regrettably, Mr.Dion has stated this will not be done in Westmount-Ville Marie, but someone will be parachuted in, as Lucienne Robillard has stated she will not run in the next Federal election.One can hope that the Federal Liberal top- brass will change their mind and allow the local party to choose their candidate at a nomination meeting.Stanley Baker De Maisonneuve Boulevard Thanks for encouraging column To the editor: 1 wish to express my gratitude on behalf of everyone here at Repercussion Theatre for the very encouraging Commentary column that appeared in last week's Examiner.The article came at a very opportune time as we were engaging in some navel gazing as to the \u201cbig questions\u201d of who are we?Was mounting Moliere a wise decision?Should we even do plays in the language of Moliére?Audiences have been lower this year and to some extent that was anticipated given that we had embarked on the \u201cbeau risque\u201d of venturing into the other solitude.However, it took Shakespeare in the Park a number of years to build its loyal audience base, and that was with a brand very well known in the anglophone community.Molière en plein air is relatively new, and as you mentioned, his oeuvre is not nearly as well known.Our mandate is to ignite a spark of passion for theatre in those that wouldn't think to buy a ticket to Place des Arts or the Centaur.We do that by bringing theatre to them, in their communities.Doing free outdoor theatre is a very challenging endeavor that constantly tests the commitment of everyone involved.Your very encouraging words are a source of inspiration and a reminder of why we do what we do.Ray Hiltz Executive

the CP land around the Westmount train station on St.Catherine Street.But while the developer is poised to start construction in October, City officials say his proposal has yet to be accepted.Standing in the parking lot on Tuesday morning, Jerome Winikoff of Oblin Homes described his vision for low-rise townhouses flanking the station.A row of 11 units would be built on the east side and another eight to the west of Victoria Avenue.He also hopes to build another seven units at e rear if he can get the City\u2019s permission.\u201d Thirty-Five Years Ago August 10, 1972 ROAD CLOSING: \u201cResults of a survey of Westmount traffic that was taken this spring have shown that with the opening in the fall of the new Trans-Canada highway, it would be feasible to close part of de Maisonneuve Boulevard to traffic.The proposal before Council calls for the closing of the street between Melville and Lansdowne, the section that runs through Westmount Park.\u201d Forty-Five Years Ago August 10, 1962 JUMPING THE JALOPY: \u201cIf you were (or are) a young man driving a jalopy and the old crate breaks down, what would you do with two pretty gal passengers?Have them get out and push, of course! Such was a summertime sight along Sherbrooke Street Tuesday afternoon.And the girls were wearing shorts, too! The unusual spectacle didn\u2019t last too long, however, as the gals managed to get the old bus rolling within a block or two.\u201d Fifty-Five Years Ago August 8, 1952 SCAVENGING: \u201cOn Wednesday morning the gang at the Westmount YMCA were scrounging around the city as Hugh Stratton sent them scrambling on a scavenger hunt.Here is a list of what the boys had to dig up: Coca Cola bottle cap, Orange Crush top, maple tree leaf, wooden match, toothpick, one cent stamp, one edition of Time magazine, and one button.\u201d Sixty-Five Years Ago August 6, 1942 SUMMER SLUMBER: \u201cTomorrow evening the YMCA vacation club will hold another \u2018Snooze Party.This party is being looked forward to greatly by the vacationers.An excellent program has already been lined up by the junior council leaders.They have obtained Howard Richardson, who will tell one of his ghost stories.This will be followed by a moonlight dip in the pool.Other highlights will be a wiener roast and a sing-song.\u201d WANT TO ADVERTISE IN OUR MONTHLY REAL ESTATE SECTION?CALL 514-363-5656 TO FIND OUT HOW.New arena joins mayor's legacy list Civic Alert Don WEDGE ayor Karin Marks is planning to initiate not one but two legacies by the end of this council's mandate.We have previ- M ously heard of the intended sustainable community, and this week she confirmed that a second objective has been added.This is the proposed new Arena, in whatever form it ultimately takes.\u201cIt may not be completed by the end of the mandate, but 1 am determined that, at least, we have a shovel in the ground and construction is on the way.\u201d Marks hopes there will be a crossover of the two projects, so that the new facility is also built to the highest and greenest of standards.\u201cThat will be a very expensive undertaking,\u201d she warned, \u201cbecause arenas are huge energy consumers.\u201d Doubtless, there will be those who will argue that we can only consider a new building if it is at the highest environmental standard.Marks promises full opportunity for public input once there is a project to be considered.The mayor feels that unless a project is actually put forward for consideration, a public debate would be too unstructured.She maintains that the Library reconstruction only began with architectural concepts.No doubt she was referring to the expensive version with reflecting pools.A more modest revision was accepted after an outcry! I hope the new presentations will come in the form of additional components to the basic arena, so that citizens can consider the implications, including land use, height and cost.Tackling the To-Do List With a summer break behind her, Marks was in great form on Monday, hosting a lunch for the visiting Communities in Bloom judges.Now, council turns to the long To Do List that awaits them this fall, although some members and a few senior staff are still on vacation.There is a short council meeting at noon today (Thursday) and a full meeting on Monday evening, Aug.27, with the Agglom resuming on the following Thursday.The Recreation and Culture Standing Committee also meets today after the council meeting.My list last week of recent legacy work in the community has not been challenged, although it has provoked a number of interesting additions \u2014 including what might be regarded as near-legacy achievements.Yet the most interesting new suggestion does not qualify! It comes from Laurel Bossen, a York Avenue resident for many years.She thinks that the decision against allowing the old train station to be used as a proposed Police-Fire megastation is a great legacy.\u201cThen Mayor Peter Trent deserves a lot of credit for listening to the citizens and responding when they said it was a bad idea.He was not hung up on an Edifice Complex.\u201d Megastation remembered With the forced mergers that followed, both services have been usurped by Big Montreal, and Westmount would not be the owner of the station, she points out.Prof.Bossen wants to see the station used productively \u2014 another potential item for the Council's To-Do List.Her suggestion is to convert it to a half- museum/half-library.\u201cMake it a site for the storage and use of Westmount archives \u2014 perhaps only with reduced hours \u2014 as a branch of the Library.\u201cIt would also be a small museum where we could celebrate our history.\u201cSome great people have lived in Westmount \u2014 from Leonard Cohen to Gabrielle Roy to Brian Mulroney.Let it feature our artists, scholars, scientists, athletes, journalists, musicians, authors \u2014 and, even, politicians.That would be a nice legacy!\u201d Bossen c-mailed her thoughts on Westmount in response to last week's article.It was full of suggestions meant to enhance life for citizens.Misused bike path It was such a comprehensive list that | asked permission to publish all of it, but she declined.However, she said 1 could use some extracts, so here is another 1 particularly liked: her analysis of reasons why people walk \u2014 dangerously \u2014 on the bike path through Westmount Park even though there is a pedestrian path.The bike path has an asphalt surface, she observes.It is much softer and more pleasant, so it continues to be used.When the pedestrian path next needs replacement, she suggests that asphalt or a well- drained cinder path replaces the concrete.Among councillors, Nicole Forbes suggested the open-day tours of local artists\u2019 studios, an enormously successful innovation last October, could be considered a new legacy.The event will next be held in 2008; on Tuesday, Forbes met with SEAC, her events committee, to begin preparations.While this event does not yet qualify as a legacy, it may become one over the years and, meantime, can be regarded as a great achievement.There are many more for which citizens can be proud.Continued on page 15 RE Starting from $3495 + Exceptional Miele quality and dependability - built to last 20 years + Gentle Fabric care + Patented Honeycomb Drum Design « ENERGY STAR\u2019 rated miele.ca Andel W800 and T2800 Buy a Miele Full-Size laundry pair and receive a $600 compact canister vacuum FREE \u2014 With Miele, you'll be amazed at ge what comes out in the wash.ag FETE SY ENERGY STAR\u201d (STAR quatfied clothes washers Yatret at) Decembas 11 7007 Anything else is à compromise * Free compact canister vacuum is a $4210 HERA wath an approyimate retail value of $600 \u201cFree vacuum\u2019 offer 1s ynorl atu suppme | ast and vakd at participating authonzed Miele dealers only Vaid on purchases from July 1 to \u201ceptember 10.2007 es appareils AL MAR DEPUIS 1966 514.482.0007 EXT 201 5400.BOULEVARD DÉCARIE WWW.ALMARAPPLIANCE.COM HOY I2UTIIUEXIJUNOWIISAM MMM Jauliexy JUnoLSaps yj rps \u201cap ns 000 L The Westmount Examiner www.westmountexaminer.com Thursday, August 16, 2007 B [ J / \\ f 57 FIRE OCPT.ms ( + # a = \u2018 STI TE TT Dear Residents Westmount is a residential community which has the added benefit of having a vibrant commercial sector where we can walk to local stores and shop close to home.Whether our stores and businesses are owner managed by fellow residents or by others who have chosen to establish themselves in Westmount, they are part of the fabric of our community.tor provides.Patronizing these stores and companies helps to ensure their | We will continue to welcome the vitality which a healthy local business sec- !

brilliant blue and the sun is shining.In the heart of Westmount, across from City Hall, lies an exquisitely manicured green turf.Ladies and gentlemen, immaculately clad from head to toe in white, are enjoying a fine game of lawn bowling.\u201cPeople walking by will often stop to wc us play,\u201d said bowler Stanley Baker, -*>ponsible for liaison and publicity at the Westmount Lawn Bowling Club.\u201cIt looks like fun, so they come try it out.Its a great way for us to recruit new members.\u201d Founded in 1902, the Westmount Lawn Bowling Club is one of the oldest in Canada.James Brown, founding father and first president of the club, helped turn what was then sleepy farmland in the suburbs of Montreal into some of the finest greens in the world.The author of a comprehensive manual on lawn bowling, Brown insisted that the traditional rules and etiquette of the game that he acquired in his native Scotland be adhered to in Westmount.Most of these rules continue to be respected to this day, with one major change.\u201cThe difference is that 100 years ago women weren't allowed to be members,\u201d said Baker.Now women outnumber men three to one.It's possible the club would have closed a long time ago had it not opened the member - ship up to women.Club member Evelyn Lodge first bowled in the Town of Mont Royal for over 16 years.\u201cBut from the time first time I played, | knew that ] wanted to join the Westmount bowling club.It\u2019s just so nice here,\u201d said Lodge, looking towards the greens.\u201cAnd there are nice people, too.\u201d After 22 years bowling, Lodge now plays croquet because of health reasons.But she still pays the bowling membership dues every year out of loyalty.\u201cI come to watch them play on SR ANNE nb SE Stanley Baker in action.(photo: Brerr sundae) fi ; 2 ae 7 fe is Con NATE Gay Risk rakes the bowls.the weekends, it\u2019s just such a beautiful game.\u201d The legacy of the beautiful game dates back to antiquity.There is evidence of a similar game being played in ancient Egypt, which made its way to Greece and finally to Rome, where it is believed that Julius Caesar\u2019s centurions then brought the sport across Europe.Lawn bowling, along with games like Italian bocce, French petanque or curling, is believed to have originated from this tradition.The object of lawn bowling, similar to the above-mentioned sports, is to roll a bowl as close as possible to a smaller white ball (called the jack) located on the opposite side of the turf.Because the bowl is slightly asymmetrical, it curves as it loses momentum and the idea is to have it curve as close as possible 10 the jack.A game packed with tactic and strategy, the point is not just about getting your bowl closest to the jack.Players must anticipate their opponent\u2019s shots.For example, players will aim their bowls to block the jack or knock the opponent\u2019s bowls out of the way.But the easiest way to understand the game, however, is to watch a match.\u201cYou have to come see lawn bowling first hand to get a feel for how it works,\u201d said Jessica Chan, member and coach al the Westmount Lawn Bowling Club.An excellent opportunity to watch a game and discover Westmount\u2019s bowling greens is next week when Montreal welcomes some of the most talented bowlers from across Canada.Westmount is one of three clubs to host the 2007 Canadian National Championships from Aug.19 to 25.The official opening, complete with pomp and bagpipes, will be held in Westmount on Aug.20.The Westmount club welcomes all ages to come try the sport.\u201cBowlers range from their teens to their 90s,\u201d said Baker.\u201cIt\u2019s a popular misconception that lawn bowling is basically a seniors sport.We're not a herd of dinosaurs,\u201d he added.The Westmount bowling club is open every Wednesday evening to those interested in trying the sport.Personal coaches are on- hand to explain the art of bowls and teach proper technique.The only requirement is flat-soled footwear and white clothing, Before becoming a member, new players must have a coach approve them based on a minimum level of proficiency.\u201cThough with practice, people's prowess improves quickly,\u201d said Baker reassuringly.If the promise of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and meeting new friends hasn\u2019t convinced you to give lawn bowling a try, the tea, cakes, and cucumber sandwiches that emerge at the end of a demanding game of bowls should do the trick.The scason starts May | and runs until Oct.15, weather permitting, The Westmount Lawn Bowling Club is located at 401 Kensington Ave.For information, please call 514 931-8690.To learn more about the 2007 Canadian National Championships please visit www.bowlscanada.com.Westmount

approach to dancing.Attendees of the open house will also automatically be eligible for a 10 per cent discount on fall registration, and are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item to the

All such activities gave an added value to the quality of Westmount life, he said.Thompson thinks the campaign waged by the Save the Park group has produced an effect beyond that anticipated by the advocates: an increased general awareness of all 13 park facilities.He believes there is a human need to re-create oneself periodically \u2014 \u2018re-cre- ate\u2019 being at the root of the recreation concept \u2014 and that the city provides essential facilities and opportunities for this human revitalization.Meantime, Coucillor Patrick Martin maintains that the present council\u2019s volume of work will lead to its chapter in the history of the City.L'Essentiel Santé A Professional Supplement Store * Supplements * Homeopathy * Natural products © Essential oils (Aromatherapy) e Natural skin care products Not necessarily concrete \u201cA legacy may not be something constructed in concrete,\u201d he maintains.\u201cFor instance, the sea change of culture that we e Herbs went through leading to the purchase of ê | PROFESSIONAL NUTRACEUTICALS & SUPPLEMENTS- 4 the hybrid cars marks a key step in our transition to a sustainable community.\u201d It may not be generally recalled that, in 2004 while an annexed borough, the Healthy City Project asked that council to take a lead and buy a hybrid vehicle as a demonstration of its green orientation.Council investigated, but for various reasons \u2014 financial and practical \u2014 the idea.While the HCP periodically raised the issue, it was only this spring that a new determination on Council\u2019s part found vehicles with a specification that met operational needs, and the four Toyota hybrids were bought for Public Security.A hybrid replacement was also chosen for the Director-General\u2019s car.- + AVAILABLE IN THE MONTREAL AREA + TATED ad Homeopath and Naturopath available to help guide you i Donald Pearson & Mel Alter | | i proprietors 1743322 1225 Greene Ave.Bulletin Board Friday, Aug.17 The Montreal Children\u2019s Library presents Washboard Theatre performing Briar Rose, a bilingual presentation at 10:30 a.m.for ages 3-5 in Cabot Square Park (Atwater and Tupper).Info: 514-931- 2304.Saturday, Aug.18 Westmount\u2019s Knit n\u2019 Natter group is having their first annual PicKnit in the park.Bring your lunch, your knitting and something to sit on and meet at the corner of Lansdowne and de Maisonneuve at noon.The group will then find a nice spot in the park.Come on out and meet some other knitters and have a good time!
