gone to bed when the fire started at around 10:15 p.m., apparently in a nest built by finches above a light fixture over the front door of the Cottingham home, which is just outside of the Westmount border in the City of Montreal.A screen around the light also burned.\u201cThey were Westmount birds,\u201d Mrs.Cottingham joked.\u201cI watched them and they flew off to e west.\u201d hile it may have been the nest that caught first, the flames quickly spread to the fixture and burned part of a fan-shaped section of wood above the door.\u201cThey were big flames.1 don\u2019t want to exaggerate.but I'd say they were shooting out about three feet from both sides.\u201d Fortunately for the Cottinghams, their neighbours, the Kwitkos (who are part in Westmount, part in Montreal) had a houseful of guests for the holiday.and were enjoying a late-night dinner in their front room across the street.They spotted the fire.\u201cThe next thing | know, the doorbell was ringing and people were yelling,\u201d Mrs.Cottingham said.But while the adults were calling 911 (it appears the City of Montreal firemen didn\u2019t arrive for some time, perhaps because they had trouble finding the house) Adam had another idea.A Grade 5 student at Selwyn House school, Adam said he had read the instructions and looked at the diagram on the fire extinguisher before, so he knew how to use it.Adam\u2019s mother, Alicja, said the youngster acted so quickly that she almost missed it.\u201cHe did it so fast that by the time 1 got up from the table he was already spraying it.\u201d she

Westmount Examiner, Thursday, April 20, 1995 - 3 Bouchard\u2019s plan for \u2018illusion\u2019: u By CRAIG McKEE The Examiner Recent proposals by Bloc Québécois leader Lucien Bouchard are \u201can illusion,\u201d St.Henri-Westmount MP Lücienne Robillard said in an interview in her riding office last week.\u201cDo you think (Canada) will be pleased with the separation of Quebec and react very well and give them everything?\u201d Robillard questioned.\u201cYou'll never have some kind of association, you would have two separate countries.\u201cThey're speaking like you won\u2019t have any change.\u201d Robillard said a sovereign Quebec would be free to use the Canadian dollar, as proposed in the PQ's draft legislation declaring sovereignty, but would sacrifice any influence over monetary policy \u2014 in effect making Quebec less independent than it is now.She also questioned how Bouchard and Premier Jacques bt association an Robillard Parizeau can expect Canada and Quebec to be equals in an economic union when the rest of Canada has three times the population of Quebec.\u201cThat's completely foolish.\u201d Robillard, who was named both minister of labour and minister in charge of the referendum from the federal side, said the delay announced by Parizeau shows that support for separation isn't there.She denied the PQ claim that the population nceds more information before voting.\u201cPeople are ready to vote but not to vote for separation,\u201d she said.She said that if Parizeau wants a delay he should be obliged to go back to the party for approval ol the change in plans.Robillard described her carly weeks as a minister as a \u201cbaptism of fire\u201d because of the national rail strike.She added that she has been most surprised by just how far to the right the Reform Party is.\u201c\u201cThey\u2019re ready to eut anything.\u201d Former councillors pass away The City of Westmount has sent its condolences to the families of two former city

e Career e Golfwear 5200B Blvd.de la Savane 344-0047 Tues.- Fri.10-6 Sat.10-5 By BERNIE O'NEILL The Examiner Westmount ended 1994 with a $700,000 operating surplus, city councillor David Laidley said last week in a year that, he said, shows the city remains on sound financial footing.Revenues exceeded the total $50.8 million budget by $590,000, while spending was below budget by about $100,000, Laidley said in a review of the audited annual financial report.Among the highlights, Laidley said legislation adopted in December 1993 changed the collection of real-estate transfer duties, with the tax now being charged on the greater of either the sale price or valuation.(In the past, the tax was collected on the The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, April 20, 1995 - 5 Hydro, real estate and snow highlight \"94 finances sale price, even if it were less than the MUC valuation for the property.) The new law, combined with strong sales in 1994, gave Westmount a windfall of about $485,000.There were 306 real- estate transfers compared to 263 in 1993.On the down side, revenue was well below budget for the city\u2019s Light and Power utility at about $1.5 million, or about $500,000 less than budgeted.Laidley said the difference was partly due to penalties the local utility paid to Hydro Quebec during peak demand in the unusually cold months of January and February 1994.Westmount Light and Power, the city\u2019s own utility, buys its power from Hydro Quebec.Also on the weather front above-average snowfall of nearly 260 cm compared to the annual average of 210 cm resulted in increased labour, contracting and road salt costs, putting snow removal about $270,000 over the $2.4 million budgeted.Revenues from tickets issued last year also was less than anticipated by about $80,000, although the figure was in line with the amount collected in 1993 of around $2.4 million.Laidley pointed out that the city\u2019s debt-financing costs represent just five per cent of the city's total expenditures, compared to nearly 16 per cent on average for the rest of the towns and cities in the Montreal Urban Community.St.George\u2019s presents J.B.starting tonight JB, Archibald Macleish\u2019s highly contentious play about the biblical character Job and his pawn-like relationship with God and Satan, is being presented this weekend by The Lucia Vestris Players, the second-year acting class of St.Georges High School.Staged in a contest-like arena, e Casual Sizes 6-20 HOME OF THE WEEK.GLENCAIRN EXECUTIVE: Gracious spacious detached home in prestigious quiet street in the \u2018le Road area.11,000 s.f.lot, ge entertainment space including terrace overlooking outstanding garden, huge mid-level den, 2 fireplaces, à double garage, great master suite including luxury bath.A must-see at $595,000.esti jedeikin re) 933-6781 487-9027 Fj Re/Max Westmount inc.broker Chorlered Real Esiale Broker / Independently owned 8 operated Le Club du Rae e DAILY Elegant Party Room Available for up to 24 People Assortment of freshly baked cakes available upon request FULLY LICENSED \u201cTues.-Fri.11:30 a.m.-11p.m.Le Sat.Sp.m.-11ip.m.: CLOSED ON SUNDAYS & MONDAYS (except for private parties) (corner Victoria) 4 Somerville 485-2502 = two ex-actors (Zuss and Nickles) play God and Satan and struggle to capture Job's soul.The competition \u2014 good vs.evil \u2014 creates a backdrop of spiritual questioning for both Job and the audience.Westmount resident Daniel Sokoloff plays the devoted J.B.Other Westmounters work behind the scenes.Rebecca Drysdale is Assistant Director, Daniel Rona- Hartzog helped design the lighting, and Daniel Elizondo designed the sound.JB.will be presented at 7:30 p.m.on April 20-22 in the Bhatla Performing Arts Space.For tickets, call 937-9289.NASTY a Ver THE FINAL MOMENT You've looked at many houses and you've finally decided on a choice.You go back for a final look - a much more critical look than the others.Don't be timid.Check everything you think is important with a critical eye.No house will be perfect, but you should know about any defects before making a final decision.When the time comes, let the REALTOR handle the actual price negotiations.This is always the toughest and most sensitive part of any home purchase.The REALTOR knows both parties\u2019 financial positions and can usually come out with a better arrangement than via personal confrontation between principals.One party will usually be at a disadvantage.Don't be affraid to quibble.Few homes sell at the asking price - but don't ask for the impossible.Be sure you know the answers to all the dollars and cents questions, such as, taxes, operating expenses, closing costs, fees, etc.If you don't know - ask!

10-year-old Leah Blank, who did big things both in chess and in gymnastics; women's hockey goaltender Charlotte Davet, the only Westmounter in the Canada Games; and Todd McDougall, the McGill basketball player who won the Richard Pound Award.Older competitors had some big days as well, like 44-year-old André Cleyn, who took the local.bowling sténé dy Surprise tvith.a perfect 300 game to go with his 1979 hole-in-one in golf.But also deserving of praise are the many athletes who compete in the city's regular recreation program or in local school programs.It is they, along with the adult volunteers any program needs to succeed, who keep the recreational life of the community going.The city is currently short of coaches for the upcoming summer season for sports like soccer and baseball.Anyone with some time to offer will certainly find such a commitment rewarding and would be helping the kids really get the most out of their summer.Give the recreation department a call; you won't be sorry.TILES 4 250351 i; Petaig Mekéé You Say Car exhaust unwanted in \u201cloading zone\u201d An open letter to the Headmaster of Selwyn House School: I am writing you regarding the \u201cloading zone\u201d in front of Selwyn House where students are dropped off and picked up.As a student at Dawson College, the endless queue of cars has become a customary sight on my walks to and from school.However, | find it somewhat disconcerting that these cars are, more often than not, left running as parents wait for their children.If you have ever been in the area at such a time, you will undoubtedly concur that the exhaust is quite malodorous.Moreover, it is obvious that such pollution can only have an adverse effect on our environment.I fully understand parents\u2019 desire to keep their cars warm on chilly winter days but such practices become unnecessary in the spring and summer months.Consequently, | am asking you to please remind parents to turn off their cars when waiting.It is a simple gesture, but one that will no doubt go far in improving the quality of the air in the area.I hope that you will give serious consideration to my request.Michèle Mendelssohn WESTMOUNT A paper thief in Westmount?Is someone stealing the recycled newspapers from our blue boxes?The last two blue box pickups, the newspapers | put out were gone in the morning, although the rest of the material was untouched and the pick-up truck had not been by yet.Newsprint is at a premium price at present \u2014 is that why it appears that some early- bird thieves have been out and about?If so \u2014 what can we do to foil these thieves?R.Johnston WESTMOUNT Debate pits dog lovers against bird lovers The debate regarding dogs on Summit Park unfortunately tends to pit dog lovers against bird lovers.We agree entirely with Councillor Herb Bercovitz that there is \u201ca whole constituency of residents who don't own dogs and aren't bird watchers who haven't been heard from.\u201d (EXAMINER, April 6.1995).Visiting Summit Park can be a very disagreeable experience because inevitably large and boisterous dogs.often barking, bound up to walkers.No doubt these dogs are friendly and harmless.but it can be quite alarming, and particularly frightening for the very young and the elderly.Thus Summit Park has unfortunately become a large dog run shunned by the majority of Westmounters \u2014 those who don\u2019t own dogs.John and Phyllis Stewart WESTMOUNT Dollar must be kept from falling farther The Canadian dollar has fallen drastically against the Japanese yen reaching an all time low of below $60 recently.With the falling dollar, Canadians would be facing serious problems in trade with not only the Japanese but with other countries as well.As the Canadian dollar becomes cheaper, people would find Canadian produced goods cheaper to buy.This will increase the quantity of export for Canada.Increasing exports have a good effect only for a very short time.When Canada tries to buy goods from other countries, they will be aware that the falling Canadian dollar means that foreign produced goods will become much more expensive than before.Export incomes in actual value would also decrease and Canada\u2019s ability to import would be hurt seriously as well.The average consumer would also have to pay much more for an imported good.It is necessary for the Canadian government to gain investor's faith in the Canadian dollar by lowering the budget deficit and preventing the dollar from falling farther.If not, people who have Canadian dollars in their hands will soon loose confidence of the Canadian government and the Mexican peso incident might reoccur in Canada.David Lee MONTREAL Changes to pensions are tokenism On the issue of reforming MPs\u2019 pensions, Prime Minister Jean Chretien caved in to the naked greed of Sheila Copps and her cronies and stands revealed as a hypocrite.Despite the token changes to MPs\u2019 pensions announced by the federal government, MPs\u2019 pensions will still have unlimited protection against inflation and will grow in value at a rate that\u2019s twice the legal maximum in the private sector.When the government is talking about raising the age for receiving CPP pensions from 65 to 67, Liberal MPs have decided to give themselves pensions at age 55.Even worse, MPs who have already qualified for pensions will still be allowed to quit their jobs and receive super huge pension pay outs regardless of their age.To.give; you a an idea of just.how cowardly the announced changes are, if Sheila Copps retires in three years, she will stand to collect $2.7 million until age 75.Under the old plan, she would have collected $3.3 million.There's no need to hold any tag days for Sheila.The MPs\u2019 pension plan is still gold-plated, will still cost the taxpayers millions and is still an outrage.That this MP pension fraud comes from a government which piously preaches fairness and about the need for sacrifice makes this insulting reform plan even worse.The hypocrisy is mind boggling.When are our elected representatives going to lead by example?David Somerville President The National Citizens\u2019 Coalition 9 mr PE OA ET Ee \u2014r The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, April 20, 1995 - 7 I hte tell yoo His : yore The Westmount Examiner Tr rate pr OR FEES mt étre Perret EXAMI > FICE 60 years ago April 19.1935 RESERVOIR PLANNED: \u201cPlans for the erection of a reservoir on Westmount Mountain were approved by the Westmount City Council at its regular meeting.Alderman George S.Currie said McGill University.owners of the property.do not ee.any development of the scheme at the resent time.\u201d 50 years ago April 20.1945 MERCHANTS URGED TO BRIGHTEN UP: \u201cThe City of Westmount Council has requested the Business Association of Westmount and the Community Services Committee of the Rotary Club to endeavour to institute a co-operative spirit among merchants of the Eastern Section around Greene Avenue in a plan to make the business section look more alive and progressive.Merchants are being asked to check present window displays with the thought of making them more attractive to the passer-by.Paint and repair jobs are urged where necessary, and lighted show windows after dark until 11 p.m.are suggested.\u201d 40 years ago April 22, 1955 AD: \u201cAMERICAN TV RECEPTION, guaranteed!

Q.) sapage ipping N.hand fessional Marvin: urrage tering By BOB OLIVER The Examiner Well spring has sprung, the grass has riz, and the rink rats and ski bums have exchanged their winter gear for golf clubs, tennis racquets, baseball mitts and soccer balls.So, before the summertime sports start, let\u2019s take a quick look back at some of the highlights from the winter scene of 1994-95.Although this package is in ran- an order, it might be appropriate 0 begin with bowler André Cleyn.The 44-year-old Westmount resident bowled a perfect 300 game, something many of us dream of, but will never experience.Cleyn seemed to be working his way up to it after two previous games of 211 and 224 that also gave him his best high-triple (735) of his 28-year playing career.Cleyn turned the trick playing in the Montreal Top Lane Monday night league at N.D.G.\u2019s Rosebowl Lanes.Cleyn adds the perfect game to the hole-in-one he fired in 1979 at the Trout River Golf Course.Twenty-four-year-old basketball star Todd McDougall was the proud recipient of McGill's prestigious Richard Pound Award given annually to a student in his graduating year or last year of athletic eligibility.McDougall won the award for combining athletic and academic excellence (3.5 plus grade-point average) with his unselfish dedication to McGills extra-curricular activities.A pair of female athletes also did Westmount proud this past season.Leah Blank, 10, picked up a pair of gold medals at the Chess 'n\u2019 Sports Math city championships before turning her attention to gymnastics.At the Sherbrooke Games, the diminutive Westmounter won five gold medals and one silver before being named the Gadbois Gymnastic Club\u2019s gymnast of the year.Seventeen-year-old Charlotte Davet made a bit of history being the lone Westmount resident to compete at the 1995 Canada Games.Davet earned her spot on the Quebec women\u2019s hockey team as the starting goaltender.The Selwyn House Gryphons High School athletes did extremely well this past season in a number of sports.The midget boys basketball team won the GMAA title and then went on to capture the provincial crown in Shawinigan.The wrestling team hosted the 1994-95 provincial championships and won two individual titles when Andrew Johnston captured the gold medal in the 60- kilogram class, and teammate Seth Ross bested all challengers in the 55-kg category.Eric Goldwarg \u2014 a Quebec Games silver medallist \u2014 led the cross-country ski team with a gold medal in the juvenile division at the GMAA championships.Jordan Goldwarg and Tom Watt duplicated the feat in the bantam and midget boys races.For the second year in its two- year history, the Grade 5 and 6 Gryphons hockey team won the Selwyn House tournament at the Westmount Arena.Led by MVP Ted Kyres, the Gryphons captured the title by blanking Greenfield Park 2-0 in the championship game.While Selwyn House was winning medals in a variety of sports, the Westmount High School Knights focused their attention on hockey.The Knights juvenile team won their divisional title after beating Bialik High School in an overtime shootout after the final game.Both teams were deadlocked with 1-1-1 records before Westmount broke the ice in overtime.The Knights junior tcam settled for second place in their playoff series after falling two straight to College Français 4-2 and 3-2.The Dawson College Blues hockey and basketball teams made a gallant effort in their respective sports but close, as they say, is only good if you're playing horseshoes.The B-ballers \u2014 finishing second in the league standings \u2014 missed getting a bronze medal at the provincial championships after losing to Montmorency in the first game and Champlain-Lennoxville in the consolation final.The hockey Blues went on a virtual tear down the stretch of their league encounters, winning seven of their last eight games to vacate the cellar and latch on to the last playoff spot.However, meeting the West Division Leaguc champion St.Laurent Patriotes in the first round of the playoffs wreaked havoc on the Dawson squad.The Blues were eliminated in two straight games of the best-of-three quarter final.Westmount's benevolent old- Come and try - Saturday April 22nd SATURDAY FAMILY PASS Fitness for mom or dad while your child is having fun.99.00 for 8 weeks for the two of you, 1 adult +

tournament featuring teams from the surrounding Montreal areca.Although the SWAT team bowed out of the tournament after losing their two preliminary games, the members of the team led by tournament chairman Ken Sinclair, were all smiles at the end of it all when they netted $10,000 for St.Justin's and the Montreal Children\u2019s hospitals.The Westmount recreation department once again held another successful Winter Carnival, fca- turing sleigh rides, skating, tobogganing, ski trips, shows and a good old-fashioned maple taffy day.The rec department finally got a chance to participate in the carnival on the last day and made good usc of it, winning the broom- Cross country skier Eric Goldwarg receives a silver medal in the Quebec Games in Granby in the 5-km freestyle event.ball tournament.The Westmount Recreational Hockey League completed another successful season, where the majority of the favoured teams finished the post-season round- robin series on top.With the exception of the atom Nordiques and the midget Rangers, all the other league champions captured the round robin series.The Nordiques went from first in the league to last place in round robin play, giving way to the champion Penguins.The Rangers tied the Sabres in the two-tecam midget round robin scries but the spoils went to the Sabres after their superior 28-37 goals-for record.The novice Sharks, peewee

both league and round robin titles.In the older categories, the PHD wrestled the Executive League playoff title from the defending champion LAW, with a 3-1 win in the sudden-death final.The Devils made short work of the Fathers in Senior B action, taking their series in three straight games and outscoring their opponents 13-3.The feisty, never-say-die Whalers rallied from a 2-0 games deficit in their best-of-five series with the Red Wings 10 win the final three games and the Senior A playoff crown.The Cape Ann Friendship Tournament played by bantam players from Westmount and Cape Ann, Mass.epitomized the local sporting spirit.More concerned with the socio-cultural exchange than winning hockey games, the two teams traded players and mixed and matched teams for the bloody fun of it.The players from Cape Ann were billeted with Westmount families for the event, and according to Cape Ann president Tom Miller, \u201cthe kids, and parents, had a ball.\u201d This winter, Cape Ann will host the West- mount contingent.To kick off the 1994-95 winter sports scene, the Westmount recreation department introduced a new winter indoor pastime \u2014 Kinball.Played by three teams simultaneously, the competitors use a four-and-a-half- foot nylon ball that weighs less than two pounds.Its inaugural year proved to be a resounding success and rec department organizer Dave Lapointe is adamant that Kinball will take its place among other winter sports.City needs coaches for kids\u2019 soccer and baseball teams The City of Westmount is looking for adults to coach children\u2019s teams for the upcoming soccer and bascball seasons.Anyone interested in being a coach, should contact the recreation department as soon as possible at 989-5353 and speak to Bruce Stacey, Dave Lapointe or Claude Danis.Westmount rugby starts training The Westmount Rugby Football Club has begun outdoor training.The club, the oldest in North America, fields two senior men\u2019s si 1 \u2018de, a women\u2019s side and an old Luys side.Senior men\u2019s and women\u2019s sides begin league play May 6.Anyone interested in playing rugby can show up at Westmount Park on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6 p.m.or call 487-3516.UE Local gymnast wins big at city-wide games Ten-year-old Woods sets sights on Quebec Games By BOB OLIVER The Examiner Lindsay Woods flipped, twirled and somersaulted her way to four gold medals and one silver at the Montreal Games April 5 at the Claude Robillard Centre.The eight-year-old Grade 3 Westmount resident \u2014 who competes for the Club Gymnastique de Gadbois \u2014 took first place honours in the horse, balance beam and floor exercises and finished second on the uneven bars.This was good enough to capture first place overall in her age class and marked the second year in a row she has won the title.\u201c| did much better than last year,\u201d said Woods, who won three silver and one bronze medal at the 1994 (Montreal) Games, but sees a \u201cthree-peat\u201d as iffy at best.\u201cNext year there\u2019s less chance of winning.| move up a category and the girls will be a lot better.\u201d Competitive or not, this athlete plans to move on.Like her idol, USA\u2019 elite gymnast Dominique Dawes, Woods is looking forward to competing in the Olympics in the distant future.In the meantime, she says she\u2019ll start her climb to international fame by setting her sights on next year's Quebec Games.Woods trains three times per week for a total of 11 hours, and when she\u2019s not in the gym working on her routines, she enjoys rare moments rollerblading and biking.\u201c1 really like gymnastics,\u201d said Lindsay Woods and her supporter seem equally happy with her recent success at the Montreal Games.Woods, who also spends five weeks in the summer at gymnastics camp, bringing her gymnastic endeavours to a total of 11 months of the year.\u201cBut I can\u2019t do it all the time.| take piano lessons and I need time to practise that.\u201d Woods began her career in gymnastics at the age of three, working out with the West Island WIM- GYM club before moving over to Gadbois for the past four-and-a- half years.She says an early start isn\u2019t always an advantage.\u201cIt depends on how much you like the sport,\u201d says Woods who likes to go to the gym with her friends on \u201coff\u201d days.Considering the time and dedicated effort she\u2019s put into it and the amount of success she\u2019s had in her short competitive career, it\u2019s safe to assume that this budding young star ioves her sport.Les
