everyone who wants to come is welcome.That is the definition of a public place.But the city is trying to transform one segment of this public place into a private one by hanging a \u201cclosed\u201d sign on the main soccer field.Its intention is to avoid destroying the turf, parts of which turned into mud two years ago from excessive use.So it put up the sign this summer.But that does not mean no one ever plays on the field.The sign is silly and misleading.Certain games are allowed.The hours of play are kept minimal, and the users specific, but the field is in use.The result of the sign has meant confusion for the public security unit, which, while on patrol, has tried to kick players off the field during a legitimate game.It is not acceptable to use a meaningless sign as clout to kick people off the field.It is not realistic to expect people to abide by the sign when the field is wide open and others have been seen to play on it.The city should keep the field as public as possible, make the price of upkeep more of a priority and, at the same time, take precautions to keep the sod in shape.The PSU and city employees must be alerted to the necessity of more patrols to keep players off the turf when it is wet, and at its most vulnerable.But perhaps the best single move would be to change the offensive sign.How about something like: \u201cATTENTION: This field takes poorly to being played upon while wet, so please don\u2019t.You can get a permit to play on this field by contacting the recreation department; playing time is regulated to avoid conflicts and to keep the field in top shape at all times.Thank you for your co-operation.THE CITY OF WESTMOUNT.\u201d fr mr rE EA WE TR ST TE Tava, referendum '92 Why | will vote no By RICHARD HOLDEN This is the first of two essays by local politicians.The first is by local MNA and recently-turned Péquiste Richard Holden.Next week, the other side of the question will be explored by Liberal Willian: Cosgrove, giving reasons why he will vote yes in the Oct.26 referendum.n France, 38 million copies of the Maastrich Treaty were distributed to the population before last Sunday\u2019s referendum.They were official, legal, binding texts that set out, in detail, the future of Europe and France's place in it.After a long and tumultuous campaign, a razor-slim majority voted \u201coui\u201d to a united Europe.Canadians and Quebecers (a necessary distinction) are being called to the polls in just over one month, to answer the question \u201cDo you agree that the Constitution of Canada be renewed on the basis of the agreement reached in Charlottetown on August 28, 1992?\u201d The legal text of this agreement will probably not be available until after the referendum is over.This is certainly a very curious way to persuade a democracy that this new constitutional palace has ample room for the expression of diverse views and the aspirations of all Canadians.In Denmark, each citizen received a complete and final text of the Maastricht treaty before they were asked to choose the next step.They rejected that agreement, and the EEC did not fall apart.In what may have been his last speech in the Senate, Michael Kirby, who was an aide to Prime Minister Trudeau in a prior existence, said, \u201cI suppose the best that one could say about the substance of the proposal is that unfortunately it meets our uniquely Canadian standard of excellence.That is to say, the package will result in \u2018equalized unhappiness\u2019 for everyone in the country.\u201d That may be good enough for the likes of Senator Kirby, but it\u2019s unacceptable to the majority of Quebecers.The document we\u2019re being asked to rubber stamp is entitled Consensus Report on the Constitution.It is 20 pages long and contains 60 sections.Unlike Maastricht, the report has no legal basis; it is unsigned and incomplete.Last week in the National Assembly I compared it to a cheque in which the amount is blank; the space for the signature is also bare.Mr.Bourassa wants you and me to sign it.My response is, \u201cNon, merci, M.Bourassa.\u201d At the end of the introduction to the report, there appears the following phrase: \u201cAsterisks in the text that follows indicate the areas where the consensus is to proceed with a political accord.\u201d That\u2019s a euphemism for more negotiations.Guess how many asterisks there are in the package.you're wrong, there are 26.And that\u2019s just for starters.According to Preston Manning, the Reform Party leader, the consensus creates 50 situations where further negotiations will be required.Anyone who has the gall to tell you that saying \u201cyes\u201d to the question will bring an end to constitutional palaver is either a charlatan or a simpleton.The only way to end the stalemate is to say no.And what does a no mean?Well, it can hardly mean independence for Quebec since the government refused to ask that very question by amending Bill 150.That law, you'll recall, was passed by the National Assembly and called for a referendum on sovereignty.It was supported by a petition signed by 750,000 Quebecers.But Mr.Bourassa feared a clear and honest approach and rammed an amendment through Parliament, using closure, obliging us to answer the question about the Charlottetown consensus.What no means is that citizens are not happy with the deal.Some are worried that leaving the question of native rights in the hands of a bunch of unelected judges is dangerous and potentially very costly.They will vote no Others believe that too much power has been transferred to the provinces :@ that, ultimately, Canada will be frittere away.They will vote no.Still others, like the National Action Committee, a feminist organization, and groups representing the handicapped, claim that women\u2019s rights and those of the disabled are jeopardized in the consensus report.They too will vote no.Are all these voters traitors to Canada?I think not.j As I have said on other occasions, I am not Canada\u2019s enemy; I am Quebec\u2019s friend.Those who advocate sovereignty for Quebec will do so openly and unmista- kenly during the upcoming provincial election campaign.For the time being, we will concentrate on the consensus report and the referendum question.Of the multitude of arguments I listened to during the 35-hour debate on the question, there is one that bears repeating.The Quebec government stayed away from the negotiating table until the last minute, by which time all the other parties had agreed on a package.In terms of negotiating strategy, this was a recipe for failure because positions had become engraved in the July 7 agreement and Quebec had been isolated.Premier Bourassa, faced with a wall of opposition to his proposals for added powers for Quebec, caved in, and dropped most of Quebec's traditional demands for transfer of jurisdiction over such matters as culture, communications, unemployment insurance and health.Even in areas of exclusive provincial control, such as mining, forestry and housing, he acknowledged federal spending powers, something which his predecessors had resolutely resisted.On this, you don\u2019t have to take the word of \u201cno\u201d supporters.You have only to read what Diane Wilhelmy, the deputy minister of intergovernmental affairs in Quebec, has stated: \u201cThe argument that Bourassa did not have a good hand of cards to play was unacceptable.As premier of Quebec, with all of Quebec's traditional demands and with all the pressure he had on him, here at home, he could have said, \u2018All right, no way.\u201d\u201d Which brings me to the person and character of our principal negotiator, the premier.I often have premonitions about e people and events, Last Wednesday, during the premier\u2019s 12-minute speech to the National Assembly, winding up the debate on \u201cthe question,\u201d I had a strong sense of a man who knows he hasn\u2019t done his best, and who wouldn\u2019t be unduly upset if the consensus were to be turned down by the people of Quebec.At the end of the week, he was supporting the consensus, but half-heartedly.At this stage in the debate, I'm not making any definitive predictions, but the big momentum is clearly on the no side.In politics, as the cliché goes, a week is a long time and six months is an eternity.Be here next week.ISay! ONE is not born, but rather becomes, a woman or a man.\u2014 Bonnie Kreps @® 9 -~ .Che Westmount Éxaminer EXAMI FI Forty-Five Years Ago September 26, 1947 A new winter Scout uniform contemplated: \u201cShortage of material will make it impossible to have a general distribution of the new uniform this year, but sufficient will be available to have field tests made under actual winter conditions.\u201d Thirty-five Years Ago September 27, 1957 \u201cWestmount city fathers Monday night gave assent to a lengthy bylaw aimed at bringing massage parlors here into line \u2014 or banishing them from the municipality.\u201d Twenty-five Years Ago September 28, 1967 \u201cWestmount residents may have to go a little out of their way to find an open drugstore on Sundays.A spokesman for local pharmacies has announced an agreement whereby only one Westmount drug outlet will remain open on Sundays.Each store will take a turn at remaining open.\u201d Ten Years Ago September 30, 1982 \u201cNeighborhood Watch, the YMCA's crime prevention program recently turned down by Westmount city council, will be investigated further in the next couple of weeks, Mayor Donald MacCallum told THE EXAMINER.\u201d One Year Ago September 26, 1991 \u201cWestmount Square is hurting.Extensive renovations to the mall were complete more than a year ago.But some critics charge that the construction took too long and customer traffic was consequently offset for good.Mr.Alvo (mall manager) says a relaunching of the mall will occur in about 12 or 18 months, with a blitz of advertising and promotion.\u201d You Say Beware the border THE EXAMINER\u2019s report (Sept.17) on the demise of Marché Clément, the gro- cery-butcher store that catered to the French-English carriage trade for decades, was indeed sad.But your story listing causes was truly mystifying: Among the villains cited was cross-border shopping \u2014 but there was no elaboration.Have Clément\u2019s well-heeled clientele been slipping across the border and bringing back trunkloads of Kraft Dinner at two cents off?What next?God help us if cut-rate, bootleg copies of THE EXAMINER, printed in Plattsburgh, started hitting the market.Then another Westmount institution would bite the dust.Cross-border shopping!

All told, the 20 new mini-stations will have 20 percent of the manpower of one regular station! Now you know why they call them \u201cstorefront\u201d stations.It\u2019s because of the window dressing.In Westmount they would leave us with a mini-station as a kind of memento.Big deal.Oh, they also promise to double our patrols.But they can\u2019t guarantee it.The plan is to be phased in over eight years, with the West Island to lose a station next year, and good old West- mount in 1994.Why are they doing this?Well, it\u2019s really not to improve service.It\u2019s supposed to save money.Yet even by their own figures, the amount the MUC will save will not even offset the salary increases the police recently won.But let\u2019s look at what really is going on [I 2010 cs over there in the MUC tower.They have been keeping a lid on police spending up until now, yet giving generously to

issue than the \u201cwhen.\u201d Since the Régie intermunicipale des déchets sur l\u2019île de Montréal devised its plan to have a mobile unit travel from municipality to municipality picking up residents\u2019 toxic materials, Westmount chose its Corporation Yard as the logical location.But some people in the community said a more central and visible location would be preferable.\u201cThe Healthy City committee suggested we look at alternate locations,\u201d said Bruce St.Louis, manager of city operational services.\u201cWe're looking at alternatives, but a lot comes down to security.\u201d To get ready for the waste collection coming up this weekend, Sept.26 and 27, the site must be prepared, including making sure all the catchbasins in the Yard are secure in the event that any toxic materials are spilled, he said.The city must also provide parking on the site as well as making way for traffic.The wastemobile will be at 10 Bethune St.from 9 a.m.to 5 p.m.\u201cIdeally in a suburb, the location would be in a mall but the number one problem is security,\u201d said Mr.St.Louis.Having the hazardous waste unit placed in a more prominent location is the key to getting residents to participate, said Don Wedge, Westmount Municipal Association vice-president.He points to the rience of Ville St.Laurent which had three drop-off locations, one of which was city hall.\u201cIf we're going to get on top of this problem, we've got to admit it exists and stop tucking it away in the back alleys,\u201d he said.Public Works director Fred Caluori said they will see how the collection operates this weekend before deciding on any changes in location.He said the key is to find a location large enough to accommodate the parking and traffic.\u201cUnfortunately there are not that many locations in Westmount that meet those requirements,\u201d he said.Making the event more visible might act as an incentive and a reminder, said Mr.Wedge.\u201cWe obviously don\u2019t want garbage on display 365 days a year but \u201cNobody is going to put any serious money in Westmount right now, but there are a lot of homes out there and alot of people willing to buy.\u201d People are picking up bargains because many vendors felt they had to get rid of their houses and were taking very low prices, he said.The fact that interest rates are at their lowest level in 15 years is a factor in understanding the high volume as well, said James Quinlan, Royal Lepage\u2019s West- mount office manager.\u201cThey (interest rates) have drawn out qualified people into the market as well as many first-time buyers,\u201d he said.\u201cBut it\u2019s still not what we would call normal times.\u201d He said June is now the popular time for signing property sales.It used to be the month of May.The adjusted average price of homes sold in June was $337,434, dipping $28,233 from May\u2019s average of $365,667, an analysis of property transfers registered at city hall shows.Figures like average prices are adjusted to counteract the effect of extreme-priced sales on either end of the scale.Therefore the two highest and lowest-priced sales are eliminated from the calculations.when the time is right, the event should be right up front,\u201d he said.\u201cWhen department stores hold a big sale, it\u2019s not in the basement, but in the front window.\u201d Although pleased that West- mounters will finally be able to get rid of their toxic materials, Mr.Wedge said he is also disappointed that they won't get a chance to do it again until next spring.The hazardous waste can range from cleaners, aerosols, insecticides, disinfectants, medications, paint, primers, varnishes, strippers, thinners, glue, anti-freeze, engine fluids, batteries, fertilizers, mothballs, smoke detectors, lighter fluid and wax.Men punch, bite and poke each other in the Metro A 33-year-old Verdun man was attacked twice by the same man in the Atwater Metro station Tuesday afternoon last week before he managed to get help, police said.A 21-year-old man from Cote St.Paul was arrested in Place Alexis Nihon by officers answering a call for a fight.He has been charged with assault causing bodily harm as well as with uttering death threats.Police said the victim was leaving the station platform about 3:20 p.m.when someone punched the back of his head, then his face.Dizzy, he fell to his knees, recognizing his assailant as a man he had seen at a gym the week before.Attempting to defend himself, the victim bit his assailant\u2019s fingers and poked his fingers in the man\u2019s eyes.Breaking free, he went to the ticket booth asking for police.At that point, the suspect caught up to him and the fight resumed until the pair were separated.The victim fled to police Station 25 at de Maisonneuve Boulevard and St.Mathieu Street.Meanwhile, officers responding to the call from the ticket taker for a fight found a man with injuries to his fingers and eyes.He was taken to the Reddy Memorial Hospital for treatment.Then officers received a call from Station 25 telling them the victim was at the front counter.The suspect was arrested at the hospital, taken to Station 23 and then sent downtown to headquarters.He was described as known to police.1t was not why the attack took place.Extend your reach.When you put a classified ad in THE EXAMINER.you

comparing average sale prices to valuation levels.The average markdown for June was 17,0 percent, meaning that houses are still selling for considerably less than for what they have been evaluated.The fact that the adjusted markdown is -16.2 percent is a reflection of the dearth of high-priced sales.\u201cThere are more buyers in the $300,000 range than in the $500,000 range,\u201d said Mr.Dodge.\u201cWestmount housing has become affordable again.\u201d The typical price of a Westmount home sold in June was $436,764.which is down $18,812 from the month before.The typical house price is calculated bv applying the adjusted average markdown to the average Westmount property valuation on the MUC roll.The city calculates the 1992-94 average valuation of single-family homes as $521,300.The highest-priced home sold in June was 61 Summit Cres.which sold for $700,000, 41.3 percent less than its $1,193,000 MUC valuation.The sale was the second biggest markdown of the month.On the other end of the scale, the lowest-price sale of the month is found at 27 York St., which sold 335 CLARKE AVE.Highest price commercial sale: $1,545,000 for $110,000, 7.5 percent less than its $118,900 MUC valuation.Six condominiums sold for a total of $1,212,500 in June for a average of $202,083 (see details below).June details Following are the details of the June house sales, in

The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, September 24, 1992 Playgrounds taking on a safer shape By J.MARION FEINBERG You may not have noticed, but there are subtle changes taking place in the city\u2019s playgrounds.\u201cLast year we began work making all our parks conform to the Canadian Standards Association guidelines,\u201d said city horticulturist Claudette Savaria.This means it's out with any equipment or playscapes deemed hazardous and in with safety equipment.\u201cThe idea is to make it a safer playing atmosphere for kids,\u201d she said.This is the second of a three-year program in which municipalities are urged to modify their parks to correct any potential dangers, she said.Last year they removed all the climbing domes.This year they focused on concrete tunnels, chains suspending adult and baby swings and the borders around play areas.\u201cWe removed the tunnels because if a child falls in between them, the concrete is too hard and that makes it unsafe,\u201d she said.\u201cAlso, all the chains on swings were changed to standard size so the kids can\u2019t put their fingers in the links and get them stuck there.\u201d Wooden borders separating the sanded areas from the grassy ones are being standardized with a six- foot clearance from all equipment.New spring toys are replacing toys on a C-shaped spring.All spring toys now have a sturdier base, on one vertical spring, that gives the toy more mobility.\u201cEventually, CSA standards will be used in cases where a parent takes a municipality to court over a child\u2019s injuries,\u201d said Ms.Savaria.\u201cMany companies that manufacture the equipment are developing their products after working with CSA specifications.\u201d Baby seats are also being replaced with enclosed molded rubber seats and the public works department has also been labelling the play areas or equipment with suggested age groups.The request for the changes came from the community services committee.The recreation department and public works then inspected the equipment and play- scapes in all Westmount parks and began making changes.\u201cThe next things we'll add are plastic tunnels and short slides for toddlers,\u201d said Ms.Savaria, \u201cif it\u2019s accepted in the 1993 budget for next year.\u201d RECYCLE THIS PAPER Put it in your blue recycling box or take it with other papers and glass to one of three depots; across from the arena, at the Corporation Yard and at the corner of Tupper and Gladstone.Piomberie | C 1 e n ry pu Plumbing, Inc.2 plumbing, heating and gas plomberie, chauffage et gaz 24 HOUR SERVICE residential, commercial, industrial 5059 de Maisonneuve West, suite 1 (REMERCIER TT) | © HI-BAK GUITTER * J-STYLE GUTTER | e SPECIAL GUTTER | e TOUGH DOWNPIPE | DON'T DELAY CALL US TODAY HI-BAK® EAVESTROUGHS -7% PRIMEAU For your best protection, ask for HI-BAK® EAVESTROUGHS.CHOICE OF MODEL, SIZE AND COLOURS * EXCLUSIVE GUARANTEE Steel * TINSMITHING Copper * LEAF SCREEN * PRIMAIR SOFFIT RESIDENCES * INDUSTRIES * REPAIRS | INSTALLATION * FREE ESTIMATES 322-4160 7 A8) Aluminium The equipment may be made safer, but kids still insist on taking risks.This piece of playground equipment has the right type of spring, but it is not supposed to be used in this way.We specialize in High Quality Reproduction of your Classic Steel Frame Skylight IDEAL ROOFING REG'D 481-7439 SAVE 7% ON INSTALLATION WITH THIS AD.Cannot be combined with any other promotion.This coupon expires Oct.17.1982 and is redeemable only when contract is signed.Ky Bai lin 55 FIREWOOD \u2014 available now \u2014 \u2014 pick-up or delivery \u2014 = IDEZLUE ESSOR FALL BULBS HAVE ARRIVED! eo Tulips * Daffodils * Crocus ° Dutch Iris e Hyacinths * Narcissus * Allium e Etc.etc.SHOP EARLY FOR BEST SELECTION.- CHRISTIE PLUMBING For current market analysis of your home, REEVE t Sad 1330 GREENE AVE.\u201d The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, September 24, 1992 - 11 Union grievance leaves student workers in the lurch By LAUREEN SWEENEY Westmount\u2019s student workers, most of them local residents, are caught in a union wrangle that\u2019s depriving some from working throughout the school year, city officials confirmed Monday.The city let them go Sept.15 after the blue collar workers\u2019 union filed a grievance against the students remaining after that date.It has at least one mother up in arms.\u201cI'm just livid,\u201d says Mary Hoop- r, of Grosvenor Avenue, whose n David, 23, is one of those affected.She said he depends on the work to help finance his last year of Commerce at Concordia and has worked for the city more than five years.\u201cI'm very angry as a taxpayer.1 feel the citizenry are being ripped off.\u201d John Creel, 22, of Upper Lans- downe Avenue, arranged his university courses around his work schedule at the Corporation Yard this fall while Dwight McWethy, 23, of Arlington Avenue, did not look for a job this fall because working at Westmount seemed like \u201ca sure thing.\u201d \u201cWe were led to believe we would have our jobs and in my case, I was told Monday (last week) when I punched out in the afternoon that the next day would be my last because the union wanted us to be paid at casual labour rates after that,\u201d said Mr.McWethy.That would have boosted his pay from $7.12 an hour to the $13 range, he said.His mother, Carol McWethy, is also upset.\u201cIt\u2019s not been a nice situation.\u201d Bad example set She said she was unhappy with the example city personnel were setting for her children.Under the collective agreement between the city and its blue collar union, student positions that pay in the $7 range are seasonal jobs, mainly at the parks and pool, available between April 15 and Sept.15.The exception is tennis -

I think it\u2019s about time the MUC told its citizens just how much the police have been cut back, and not to cloud the issue with vain measures like the present plan.They .might be surprised.Maybe people \" would pay more for po ~¢ services. 12 - The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, September 24, 1992 Plan to merge police stations approved by MUC committee Meeting on fate of local Station 23 at Vic Hall tonight Consolidation of police services into 14 stations from the existing 24 was approved Tuesday night by the MUC's public security committee along with the first phase of a police map reform in the Montreal Urban Community.Though no stations were named in the resolution, local Station 23 has been one of the 10 destined to have its services relocated to a mega-station, proposed for phase two in June 1994.The decision came two days before the date set by MUC officials to consult Westmounters on the plan at a public meeting, being held tonight at 7:30 p.m.in Victoria Hall.\u201cIt\u2019s insulting for them to pass such a resolution two days before they consult with Westmount citizens,\u201d Mayor Peter Trent told THE EXAMINER after walking out of the meeting.\u201cBut,\u201d he said, \u201cwe can thank our lucky stars that the Westmount phase wasn\u2019t specifically approved.\u201d Henderson addresses constitution Westmounter and Equality Party member Keith Henderson will be one of three panellists at a Unity Canada public meeting at John Rennie High School, 501 St.John\u2019s Rd., Pointe Claire tonight at 7:30 Jn.P Other panel members are consti- Were it not for a special meeting of suburban mayors last Thursday agreeing to phase one but \u201cin no way\u2019 endorsing implementation of other phases, Mr.Trent believes the entire eight-year proposal would have been adopted by the MUC security committee Tuesday.\u201cThat\u2019s the key thing,\u201d he said.Since phase one applies to mergers of police districts in the West Island and Ahuntsic, Mr.Trent remains hopeful that a large turnout of citizens can persuade the MUC to delay changes in West- mount for a few years or even indefinitely.The plan to reform the police map contains phases that last until the year 2000.Peter Yeoman, chairman of the MUC public security committee, and police chief Alain St.Germain plan to attend tonight\u2019s meeting at Victoria Hall.Mr.Trent said he had been battling alone for three weeks to try and save Westmount\u2019 station.\u201cI hope citizens will come out and support me tonight in hopes of delaying the changes.\u201d A resolution from the West- mount Municipal Association opposing any changes to Station 23 or reduction of police in West- mount will be presented at the meeting, according to WMA president Stanley Baker.So will a similar one from the tenants\u2019 association of 4300 de Maisonneuve Blvd.Other petitions and letters already have been submitted by the members of the diplomatic corps living in Westmount and Congregation Shaar Hashomayim.The resolution of the MUC public security committee approving the framework of the police plan endorsed a total of 34 stations (the plan calls for 14 mega-stations and 20 neighbourhood mini-posts).It also accepted the \u201ccommu- nity-policing\u201d objectives of the plan, attacked as misleading by a report commissioned by the city of Westmount from noted criminologist Jean-Paul Brodeur.In his analysis, he stated the city could not accept the plan to close Station 23 as a full-service station, replace it with a mini-post of two or three officers and merge its personnel detailed to Westmount with downtown Station 25.To date, Westmount has been the only municipality to offer any strong resistance to the police proposal, which is an attempt to save costs presented under the guise of community policing, according to the Brodeur report.Mr.Trent said not one mention of the report was made at Tuesday\u2019s MUC meeting.BURTON'S

and have to pay for storage at the pound plus towing.\u201cIt\u2019s more expensive than insurance,\u201d she said.Budgie found Missing your pet budgie?Check the SPCA.That's where public safety

Engalicev, Thomson.Homs: COMMERCE inc.By J.MARION FEINBERG The main soccer field in West- mount Park has been closed until further notice to preserve the sod.The only exceptions are Selwyn House School football on weekday afternoons and the recreation department\u2019s soccer programs on Saturday morning and some weeknights.\u201cHeavy rain conditions can damage the field,\u201d said public works director Fred Caluori.\u201cIf the ground gets very wet, we have to ensure the field is not damaged.If I see people playing and I feel the condition of the field is in question, I'll do something.\u201d Weekends tough to monitor Recently, there have been incidents where the public security unit has been asked by public works to clear people off the field because of rain.Most of the problem with the main soccer field occurs on weekends when there is no recreation staff on hand to ensure that no unauthorized use of the field goes on, said recreation administrator Mike Deegan.\u201cWe were asked if it was at all possible to minimize the use of the field,\u201d he said.\u201cWe received some calls from teams who got on the fields before but we did everything we could to find substitute locations for them.\u201d The \u201cfield closed\u201d signs are up permanently, he said.Use down to 16 hours per week \u201cIt makes it easy for the public security officers to know if it\u2019s a Westmount team on the field,\u201d said Mr.Deegan.\u201cThe field was closed most of the summer for maintenance but we're now using it in on average for about 16 hours over a six-day period every week.\u201d \u2018This is down from about 45 hours per week last year, which was too much wear and tear on the turf, he said.À fair amount of work and money has been put into the field over the past two years by the public works department, which is trying to use preventive maintenance to ensure the field stays in good shape.The public works department took on responsibility

booking the field as extensively as we did in the past,\u201d said Mr.Deegan.\u201cIt\u2019s a better system to ensure the field is being used solely by residents and those enrolled in recreation programs.We want to make sure the field is in top condition and to do that we have to make sure the field has time to recuperate.\u201d Selwyn House has been given the go-ahead to use the field on a limited basis because it was the only school to specifically ask for permission to use this field, because it is located so near the school.As well, the school has offered to let the recreation

years ago he decided to combine his hobby of photography with his love of wildlife.His photographs are a labour of love.In 1991, after only a short time behind the camera, Mr.Rothenberg won several prizes for his work from the Montreal Camera Club.He went on to win first prize in the colour category in a photo contest by the Zoological Society of Florida in Miami.He has exhibited his work across

according to festival organizers.Despite the fact it meant a half- full house for one and third-full houses for two others, it was considered a good turnout for those who mounted the shows.They had battled a perception the annual festival was on, then off, then on again, were plagued with poor publicity and a sunny weekend that may have kept art-lovers out of doors.When the city decided organizers had not provided enough information to approve funding three weeks before the festival, publicity was put on hold.It was only two weeks before the festival city council changed its mind, because organizers flocked to council in protest.The entire program was subsidized to the tune of $7,500.The experience has soured relations between Arts Westmount and this new council, which took office in November.\u201c(Councillor) Karin Marks asked what was this dance program,\u201d said director-general Manley Schultz.\u201c(Arts Westmount president Dr.Ashton) Kerr said it\u2019s a Canadian history kind of thing.He understood they were looking for an Inuit drummer.We didn\u2019t know it was a native dance.We didn\u2019t know any of the magic about it.\u201d He said it was evident those who mount the shows, outside the corporate structure of Arts West- mount, are well organized.The clearly professional shows received hearty applause from their audiences, with children excitedly telling their parents the finer points of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe on their way out Sunday afternoon.9 NEW MEMBERS: Pay now for a 1 year membership and get the rest of 1992 FREE*

21 Mary Morter and Elsa Bolam, who staged the Inuit theatre and children\u2019s parts of the show, respectively, said they would be happy to participate in future years.Westmounter Sheila Lawrence, who co-ordinated and choreographed the dance segment, said it was the last year she would do the show for free.Despite restoring funding, city officials still grumble they do not have all the information they normally require before granting money.\u201cWe've still not got the information of what they did with last year\u2019s money,\u201d said Mr.Schultz, adding the rest of the information sought was provided in dribs and drabs, with no cohesive plan in evidence.\u201cHe most certainly does have it,\u201d retorted Arts Westmount treasurer Helen Mehnert, who complained the dossier was passed from person to person at city hall, with none passing along accrued information.She provided THE EXAMINER details of last year\u2019s spending within hours of being asked.The typewritten document showed $22,616 in expenses, with the dance show m sunny outdoors costing the most, $3,948, theatre costing $2,216, children\u2019s tent $1,797, photography exhibit $1,133, music evening $1,200 and opening and closing events combined for a price tag of $400.The largest administrative expense was printing and photocopying for $1,780.\u201cArts Westmount no longer enjoyed the confidence of council,\u201d said Mr.Schultz, referring to the grant and the fact it went to the individual groups which put on the shows, and not the Arts West- mount corporation.\u201cNo one can put us out of business,\u201d said Ms.Mehnert.\u201cThe city has fond illusions it can do that.\u201d Even if funding is cut off, she added, the corporation can be dormant and re-start at a later date.\u201cThey (corporations) never die unless someone puts them to death,\u201d she said.That someone must be within the corporate structure, she clarified.City council is encouraging new blood by saying it will hold an arts summit, which will help determine the path, if any, Arts Westmount will take.Guitar champ comes to Victoria Hall Saturday U.S.A.national guitar champion and recording artist Don Ross will play a concert at Victoria Hall on Saturday at 8:30 p.m.Mr.Ross was born in Montreal in 1960 into a musical family, and started playing at age eight, aiming at being a Beatle when he grew up.He went on to graduate from the music department of York University in Toronto and began his performing career three years later, in 1986.He produced an independent cassette album entitled Kehe- win, a collection of solo guitar pieces and vocals recorded with Toronto singer Kelly McGowan.In 1987, he performed with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra at a gala benefit for the Canadian Native Arts Foundation.He is a status Micmac, as his mother is Indian, though he mostly physically resembles his Scottish father.The CNAF helped finance Mr.Ross\u2019s trip to the 1988 Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland.That year, Mr.Ross became the first Canadian to win the U.S.National Guitar Championship in Winfield, Kansas.Within eight days of his triumph, he was negoti- skp 6d RESCH ating with Duke Street Records, and his debut album for them was Bearing Straight.In 1990 he released a second album on the Duke Street label, self-titled Don Ross.He has received enthusiastic national press, and was profiled on CBC television on Adrienne Clarkson Presents.Mr.Ross tours extensively in Canada, the U.S.and Europe and composes music for film and radio.He has played at the worid\u2019s greatest jazz festival, most of the major Canadian folk festivals, and with several symphony orchestras.\u201cI don\u2019t see it being important for me to make music that sounds overtly \u2018jazzy\u2019 or \u2018folkie\u2019 or \u201cnative,\u201d he says.\u201cMy influences arc many.I just want to play good music.\u201d Opening for Mr.Ross will be the Montreal band, Good Cookies.This band, made up from the remnants of such bands as Weather Permitting and The Darned, plays original material and has released two cassettes.They recently opened for Bare Bones at Club Soda.Tickets for the concert are $7.Don Ross and his many influences will play Westmount with Good , Cookies.moda \u20ac vleo 988 S008 nl uen - The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, September 24, 1992 Starship McGill Two original scrip Last year McGill students held an unofficial referendum and voted to rename the building usually referred to as the Union building, the William Shatner building.Neither its new name nor the old has ever had an effect on the university administration, who continue to call the building at 3480 McTavish St.the University Centre.But the new name did have some effect around Paramount Pictures, and it made a difference to Mr.Shatner.Suggestive scene in They gave the students permission to stage two original Star Trek episodes, providing the scripts that included a scene that originally was thought too \u2014 suggestive, or something \u2014 for television.Mr.Shatner sent them a letter of encouragement, explaining that only work was keeping him from seeing the play.The cast and two directors (one for each segment, just like TV) have succeeded \u2014 in spite of constraints on changing the script \u2014 to mount a tremendous send-up of the original series.The director for \u201cThe Way to Eden\u201d is Jeremy Hectman, a West- mounter.He does a terrific job, as does Pierre LaRocque, who directed \u201cI, Mudd.\u201d The star of the evening is Terence Bowman, otherwise an improv comic about town, who plays Kirk with lots of meaningful pauses, bitten-off words, and arm- waving.Former Westmounter and Study/Marianopolis grad Jenn Engles plays the beautiful temptress Irina in the first play and Stella Mudd in the second, and does a fine job.Her Russian accent is superb Trek style, as is Robert Mondoux\u2019s as Chekov.\u2018He\u2019s dead, Jim\u2019 Leslie Sellers, who runs Drama Month knowing all the facts.for Girls 3495 Simpson Street October is Open House This is a unique opportunity for you to see our school in operation.To schedule a tour during the month of October, please call the Admissions Secretary at 935-2644.Come and see for yourself!

Quebec's multicultural face explored in thinly researched book Racism here confirmed at Double Hook launch By MARY CAMPBELL Multiculturalism and Quebec: A Province in Crisis, a book by Montreal\u2019s Thelma J.Wallen, was officially launched in Quebec last Thursday night at Double Hook book shop on Greene Avenue.Published by Williams-Wallace Publishers of Stratford, Ont., the book is actually the masters thesis Ms.Wallen completed at Norwich University in Vermont.The book deals with the problems facing minorities \u2014 specifically, \u201cvisible ethnic minorities\u201d \u2014 in Quebec.In her introduction, Ms.Wallen, who is black, says being part of an ethnic minority herself has given her \u201ca keen interest in the racial and ethnic relations in Quebec.\u201d She chose the topic, she said Thursday night, because she\u2019s been watching the problems facing minority groups develop for a number of years and felt it was time someone attempted to deal with them.The work purports to be a criticism of the federal government\u2019s policy of multiculturalism, but at no point is this policy defined or explained.There are other areas where a little more explanation would be desirable.Scholarly works are usually doubled by the weight of footnotes and biographical references \u2014 nothing is simply stated, everything must be justified, qualified, quantified.Yet in her thesis, Ms.Wallen treats a con ept as complex as racism as a simple given, making statements hke, \u201cBlatant discrimination in employment, advancement, promotion and recruitment have become rampant in recent years.Racism seems to have been institutionalized not only in our educational institutions, but in the socio-political and economic policy of the municipal, provincial and at the federal levels.\u201d No examples given, no sources cited.The book is peppered with phrases like \u201cin Canada it is believed.\u201d with no explanation of who believes or why; or \u201cAll the evidence shows.\u201d with no evidence cited.Ms.Wallen\u2019s own research seems a bit thin \u2014 a questionnaire distributed to \u201cabout\u201d 50 people and face-to-face interviews with 17 \u201cselected persons from all walks of life.\u201d That said, there still remains the fact of racism.Ms.Wallen cites statistics showing that the problem begins before immigrants reach Canada \u2014 with the government's recruitment policies.The majority of permanent immigration offices are located in Britain and western Europe.Canada is \u201cmuch less active\u201d in promoting immigration from Asia, Africa, Central and South America.Poverty and unemployment both tend \u201cto follow racial lines,\u201d she says, and members of ethnic minorities simply do not have the same opportunities for advancement.Racism can be a very hard thing to prove statistically; the way people answer questionnaires and the way they behave in everyday situations can be two very different things.What\u2019s missing from this book is the voice of the \u2018visible ethnic minorities.\u201d Gap filled at the book launch The book launch provided an interesting contrast to this \u2014 many of those in attendance fell into the \u201cvisible ethnic minority\u201d category and they were more than willing to discuss their personal experience.Deepak Massand is from Pakistan.The story of his decision to leave that country and come to Canada could fill a book \u2014 and probably will.Mr.Massand says he has 225 pages of his autobiography completed.He first came to Montreal in 1967 as a bartender at Expo 67's Indian Pavillion (he had his own cocktail which he says was enjoyed by a number of celebrities including Jackie Kennedy, Jean Drapeau and Pierre Trudeau).He was \u201camazed with the culture and diversity of Montreal,\u201d \u201cfell in love with the Québécois people and their customs,\u201d and eventually settled here.His most memorable brush with racism came, ironically, when he was soliciting signatures for a petition for \u201cone strong, united and undivided Canada.\u201d He says he was in front of Place Alexis Nihon and had people spit at him and tell him to \u201cgo back.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m not going back,\u201d he smiles.\u201cI started here 25 years ago.\u201d Audrey Bourne came to Canada from Jamaica 20 years ago.When asked to describe her experience as an immigrant in Montreal, she says it was \u201c\u2018quite tough.\u201cBut you know,\u201d she says, \u201cwhen you come with a concept of \u2018better.\u2019 In Jamaica there was one university, few high schools.I came here to educate myself, that was my focus.There are always difficulties \u2014 it\u2019s like a volcano, rumbling underneath, but my goal was to educate myself and that\u2019s what I've done.\u201d Isolated from the mainstream Carol Spence came to Montreal from Jamaica in 1969.She says encouraging minorities to identify themselves with their communities can also serve to isolate them from mainstream society.\u201cYou can be quite comfortable in your own community, achieve a certain respect, a degree of responsibility, but outside, in the mainstream Canadian community, you haven\u2019t the same position.\u201cIn a way,\u201d she says, \u201cI think that\u2019s what's happened to me.I've had good experiences and I have had opportunities to use my skills \u2014 teacher, nutritionist \u2014 within my community but I don't think I've ever gotten into the mainstream.\u201cI think this is why we're having problems, racism, people haven\u2019t really had to meet each other and deal with each other on their own terms.\u201d Dr.Roopnarine Singh came to Canada from Trinidad.His identification with Canada is complete to the point of organizing Montreal's Canada Day parade.He\u2019s also optimistic about the future of race relations in Quebec.\u201cI think greatness in diversity is more and more considered a plus instead of a liability,\u201d he says.\u201cThere\u2019s no country like this, that\u2019s why I do the Canada Day parade, I feel this is the greatest country.\u201d The main source of ethnic tensions, he feels, is \u201cselfishness,\u201d which he describes as \u201cthe root of all evil.\u201d That\u2019s what we have to combat, through \u201ceducation and example.\u201d Ms.Wallen is also very definite about the importance of education in improving the lot of \u2018visible ethnic minorities.\u201d One of her main recoramendations is training of counsellors who can help minority students to make informed decisions about their futures.Counsellors, she says, who are sensitive to cultural differences and who will understand that techniques that work with mainstream students might not be suitable for those of different cultural and linguistic backgrounds.ATTEND RELIGIOUS SERVICES WITH THE CONGREGATION OF YOUR CHOICE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF THE ADVENT Corner of Wood and de Maisonneuve, Westmount Sunday,

Module 6: Industrial Development, the aim of which is \u201cto understand the main economic, political and social factors which marked the second phase of industrialization in Quebec\u201d; Module 7: Contemporary Quebec.Conscription still an issue It\u2019s in this last module that the repercussions of the Second World War are discussed with, according to Mr.Baslyk, \u201can inordinate amount of time\u201d being spent on the conscription issue.The treatment of this issue will probably strike any student who's learned Canadian The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, September 24, 1992 - 31 Our history: what's taught to students in Quebec?history outside of Quebec: it crops up in discussions of both the First and Second World Wars and is in fact a dominant theme in these discussions.Far more attention is paid to the home front than the battleground.During the Second World War the Canadian army played a role \u2018\u2018assez effacé\u201d says a French textbook called Mon Histoire.\u201cMilitary life took place in English,\u201d the same text continues, pointing out the facts that in June of 1940, of the 34 majors in the Canadian forces, only one was francophone; of 88 quartermaster generals, four were francophone; of the 43 officers in charge of the artillery, three were francophone.In short, say the authors, the military discriminated against francophones.Students reading these texts have already had some background in both Quebec and Canadian history.They've studied Quebec in Grade 5 \u2014 \u201cbasically New France,\u201d says Mr.Baslyk \u2014 and Canada (British settlement in the 18th and 19th centuries) in Grade 6.Geography has wider scope They've also done \u201cThe Geography of Quebec and Canada\u201d in Grade 9, and it\u2019s here that they've been given the most national perspective.It\u2019s here they learn something about other provinces \u2014 the Atlantic and Pacific fisheries, wheat-growing on the Prairies, the political divisions of the country.(It's also here, in a section entitled \u201cThe size of Quebec compared to the size of some countries,\u201d that they learn their province \u201ccovers the same area as botu Germanies, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain and Portugal combined.\u201d) This is, of course, according to the textbooks, but teachers don\u2019t always have to stick strictly to what they find here.The Constitution, Meech Lake, the upcoming referendum, none of these are to be found in the official texts but, \u201cWhen I'm out on the hustings,\u201d says Mr.Baslyk, \"1 really encourage teachers to deal with it.\u201d In fact, he says one of the shortcomings of the history course now offered in Grade 10 is its failure to deal with the issue of Quebec nationalism.\u201cIf there\u2019s anything they really need,\u201d says Mr.Baslyk, \u201cit\u2019s that.\u201d There\u2019s also the question of just how much an effect a high school history course has.Not dripping nor drooling \u201cDo you mean what do they learn or what do I teach?\u201d laughs Mr.Wignal when asked about his course.The fact that this is Canada and our attitude toward history, he says, does leave something to be desired: \u201cThis is just an observation on my own part, and I don\u2019t know if most of my colleagues would agree with me, but in the United States, for better or worse, they tend to learn their history from a very young age.Their history is very much a part of their concrete understanding of themselves.1 was in the States recently and you can purchase, in souvenir shops, for $4, a copy of the Declaration of Independence.Can you imagine Canadians buying copies of the BNA Act or the Constitutional Accord?\u201cWhen you think of Canada \u2014 and Quebec especially \u2014 every inch of it must have some special event attached to it, you'd think we\u2019d be dripping and drooling after it,\u201d he laughs.Something tosell?Use EXAMINER classifieds.Call 431-7511.Hl 607 EN 608 NE HOUSEHOLD SERVICES APPLIANCE SERVICE SERVICES DOMESTIQUES SERVICES ÉLECTROMÉNAGERS JO RÉ I III RÉ ÉTÉ oO .¥ SPECIALIST CARPET MY 1 Ë : ANdITIONINO ¥ All cement work X CLEANING mss Etmm mses sma mim PIONEER PAINT & PLASTER $c ack & foundations [3 rooms steam Specializing in: Estone, brick, marble.X A tr dinde vai \"Spang tne 1 éclat | ;

Bailey, undoubtedly the player of the day on that afternoon, engineered a carbon copy of that play only 18 players instead of the usual 22 (11 on each side).\u201cWhen that happens, everyone gets into the action,\u201d Bailey said.\u201cWe also get better scoring opportunities.\u201d With the score at 3-zip at the half, one thought (Wales coach) Graham Bell\u2019s troops would regroup and make a game of it in the second half.But the ponchos had other plans.Weaver put the icing on the cake when he scored an unassisted goal.The swift forward outran the defender who was covering him and got the ball by the goalie.Still running, Weaver then jumped over the helpless netminder, and made sure the ball was in as he tapped it when it was already \u2014 slowly but certainly \u2014 rolling inside the net.Opposing team members fi fight for the ball \u2018during the Mexico-Wales game Saturday at noon in Westmount Park.DAYTONA ES Photo by OWEN EGAN |» 5-speed etc COLT 2000E Economic power brakes + power steering + radio AM/FM stereo cassette + 8,950 km etc.STOCK #20306 LEBARON LX Convertible * electronic dash »6cyl.» 8,950 km,etc.STOCK #20571 - air VOYAGER LE + air + ABS brakes * 7 passenger * 2,750 km, ete, STCOK #2DEB7 COLT 200GT Economie automatic * radio AM/FM stereo cassette +» power steering « 8,278 km, etc.STOCK #20694 I DYNASTY LE «alr « electronic seat *6cyl.+ power windows * 9,808 km, etc.STOCK #20204 VOYAGER LE + air + power windows & doors * 7 passenger + 8,400 km, etc.STOCK #20666 SUNDANCE 4-Door + air + 2.5 litre engine - automatic « radlo AM/FM stereo cassette 10,467 km, etc.STOCK #20783 DYNASTY 4-Door * air : power windows & doors : ado o/cassette eo, 806 km,etc.VOYAGER LE air * 7 passenger +» power windows & doors * 10,085 km, etc.STOCK #20344 ACCLAIM air *6cyl.* 4-speed automatic « tilt steering « cruise control «9.424 km, etc.STOCK #20403 COLT WAGON Economic * air « automatic * power windows & doors « 8,675 km * cruise, etc.a ER hour BLA CK T + 5-spe « power windows + 9,294 km, etc.STOCK #20416 92 GRAND VOYAGER LE * air » power windows * door locks tilt cruise » 6 cyl.low mileage +» and much more.STOCK TELE (0) give ; 7e tal 848 SUNDANCE « air * Bcyl.* power windows * 1,192 km, etc.STOCK #20480 CASH REBATES ARE ALREADY DEDUCTED - BUT CAN BE CHANGED FOR | LOW INTEREST RATES ME.JES CR ee .@ e: de ma have caused.PE ETES TE PTS ag IT XI\" eme are 4070; jeangla Talon | West EE N TA LON yr te: ote dog Neiges) 7371 prs 9) rey | The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, September 24, 1992 \u201cSPORTS STANDINGS BS Following are the standings in the West- Following are the standings in the West- mount municipal soccer leagues as of Satur- mount municipal soccer leagues as of Saturday, Sept.19: day, Sept.19: GP Ww LT Ps GPW LT Ps Canada 1 0 1 0 0 Ireland 2 2 0 0 4 USA 1.1 90 0 2 Norway 2 0 2 00 0 USA 2 2 0 0 4 ATOM i Lions 3 2 0 1 5 Argentina 2 0 2 0 0 Tigers 2 0 1 1 1 ATOM Panthers (MLW) 1 0 1 0 0 Poland 2 2 0 0 4 Austria 2 0 1 1 1 Pe WEE 9 1 1 0 2 Netherlands 2 0 2 0 0 i 0 Portugal 2 2 0 0 4 ods 1 0 0 Bulgaria 2 1 1 0 2 Hawks (MIW) 1 1 0 0 2 England 2 0 1 101 TOUCH FOOTBALL PEEWEE Following are the standings in the West- po : 0 2 : ; mount municipal touch football leagues as of Scotland > 2 0 0 4 Saturday, Sept.19: Brazil 2 1 1 0 2 GP W LL T Pts BANTAM pis 2 20007 y M 2 2.0 0 Mexi 2 2 0 0 4 KNIGHTS i 0 1 0 0 exico THUNDER 1 0 1 0 0 PEE WEE COBRAS 1 1 0 0 2 .HURRICANES 1 0 1 0 0 Thief roasted A 35-year-old from Vill SP OR TS Anjou sto appear in muni court Dec.accused ol SCORES stealing four blade roasts worth $41.95 from the IGA store in LOCAL SCHOOLS Place Alexis Nihon Saturday SELWYN HOUSE afternoon, police said.The theft VARSITY FOOTBALL occurred at 1:25 p.m.Date Teams Sept.17 Two Mountains 22 - Selwyn House 14 Sept.19 Selwyn House 21 - Brockville 1 .SELWYN HOUSE Correction BANTAM FOOTBALL Date Teams Due to reporter error, THE Sept.18 Selwyn House 0 - Loyola 32 EXAMINER got it backwards last GIALS SOCCER week.Date Teams In the Game of the Week, it was Sept.14 Queen of Angels 6 - WHS 0 reported that Austria won 4-0 Sept.16 ECS 1 -WHS 1 against Poland in atom soccer STANSTEAD TOURNAMENT action.In fact, Poland won out over Date Teams Austria 4-0.All the nice things Sept 19 Study 0- ECS 3 coach J.D.Miller said about his Stanstead 0 - ECS 0 Bishops 0 - ECS 0 ECS won, no scores against the team.team were intended for Poland.Austria\u2019s coach is, in fact, Robert Adam, and he still took the loss Thursday, October 1, 1992 BOYS SOCCER well, as reported last week.Game against James Lyng to be replayed because Wi .n \u20ac promise to uncross our eyes I x of roby GHA mess y nstant prizes*.Balloons and surprises.Take advantage of our opening specials®.ou might even meet Vroom-Vroom, our mascot!
