won first prize for design in a nationwide competition.Competing against 18 other high schools and junior colleges from British Columbia to Newfoundland, the 27-member Sclwyn House team came in second overall in the annual Canada FIRST robotics competition in Brampton, Ontario, but their robot was still judged the best- designed in Canada.Selwyn House robot is judged best in the country JE The winning team (from left to right): grade 11 student Jonathan How, Bruce MacMillan, Mike Downey and grade 9 student Hans Black.Bruce MacMillan, president of Canada FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology), dropped by Selwyn House on Tuesday to present the students with a large photo of the Avro Arrow, the Canadian-madc fighter jet of the late 1950s.MacMillan read a congratulatory Ictter from the Avro designer Jim Floyd, who also autographed the photo.\u201cThe goal of Canada FIRST ts to interest students in technology at a young age, so (hey might take subjects that will guide them towards a career in the ficld\u201d MacMillan said.\u201cPart of this 1s to turn technology into à sport.\u201d The resulting sport 1s \u2018Tech- Tac-Toc\u2018\u2014a

LARSEN The City of Westmount is currently putting the finishing touches on Spec In Westmount since 1957 1234 Greene Avenue Tel: 931-3843 an emergency lifesaver All responders to medical emergencies in Westmount now look for the stop-sign sticker when they enter a home.\u201cWe were first made aware of the BY Davip GOLDBERG Going to the fridge could save your life, thanks to a program which is being relaunched in Westmount by the Pharmaprix chain of stores.The Info-Stop Pointe Rouge program was onginally launched in June, 1996, but is being reintroduced in the hopes of giving seniors and others piece of mind in casc of a medical emergency.A plastic vial with a form inside is given to the participants.The form, with room for personal information as well as allergies and illnesses, 1s filled in with the help of the user's pharmacist.On the back is a place to attach the labels from the users medication.Once both sides of the form is filled out, the vial and contained form is placed in the fndge, and a red Info-Stop sticker 1s aflixed to the refrigerator door.The program presently covers about 85 per cent of the province, but Pharmaprix director of publicity and public relations Robert Larose 1s hoping more Westmount residents will take advantage of the service.\u201cThe program offers security and tranquility for seniors\u201d he said.\u201cWe call it \u201ctime mn a bottle\u201d.Its a program that is good not only for seniors, but also anyone who lives alone or who takes medication on a regular basis, like cpileptics and diabetics.\u201d s the end the ice program last spring by the Metropolitan Association of Fire Chiefs, and we think it\u2019s a good program,\u201d said Westmount Fire Department assistant director Barry Coates.\u201cIts very valuable, especially when someone is unconscious or can\u2019t speak.Our first-responder crews are all tratned to look for the stickers.\u201c And so are Urgences Santé crews, according to Dominique Drouin, communications and publie relations director for Urgences Santé.\u201cHaving the information (from the vial) is very important for our technicians,\u201d she smd \u201cInstead of having to look all over for the pill bottles, they look at the sheet.Then, they bring the sheet to the hospital and give it to the emergency room nurse.They don't have to ask any questions just review the hist\u201d Those in the program don\u2019t have to be Pharmaprix customers, but they do have to constantly update the list as medication and/or dosages change.\u201cWe always offer to help wath the form, because not all semors know what type of medication they're taking.And we know pharmacists (See page 10) an Internet website which will help residents access municipal departments from their home computer.Established in conjunction with the Westmount Public Library, the new website will cover all aspects of the city\u2019s resources, as well as provide information on cverything from the price of a dog license to specific guidelines for renovations.\u201cWe developed this 99 per cent in-house,\u201d Director General Bruce St.Louis said of the city\u2019s first official website, which has been under construction since September.Now all that remains arc a few last-minute details and a final proofreading.~ ® CHAR MN, éonmrnsr Spring Event till May 1, 1998 jt prié ; ihe i Arena workers

Westmount resident Moses Judah Hayes built luxurious hotel and theatre By PHILIP DOMBOWSKI The Westmount Historical Association\u2019s spring lecture series got off to an auspicious start on March 19, with a talk by Annette Wolff on Moses Judah Hays.Trained as an engineer, Hays contributed to Westmount\u2019s development when he built Metcalfe Terrace, a group of four houses erected in 1839 on Côte St.Antoine Road.Two of the original houses have survived and arc among the most prized heritage properties in Westmount.Number 168, a house Hays himself lived in for over ten ycars, 1s currently being restored by Canadian Heritage of Quebec.Most of Hays\u2019 activitics, however, extended beyond Westmount.Among his many civic accomplish- With only the Royal Olympic Theatre on Jacques Cartier Square providing competition, the Hays Theatre rapidly assumed the role of Montreal's leading playhouse.It opened to the public on July 10, 1847 with Shakespeare's comedy \u2018Much Ado About Nothing\u2019.During the same ycar, the Séguin Company presented a series of concerts featuring the compositions of Adam, Bellini and Weber.Over the next several years, many noted performers appeared on the stage of the Hays Theatre, including, in 1850, the celebrated vocalist Anna Bishop.After providing entertainment to Montrealers for five years, the Hays Theatre came to a catastrophic end in the great fire which swept through the city on July ments were the Montreal Water Works, an undertaking which met the city\u2019s increasing need for water.In 1836, Hays was made a judge of the Court of Special Sessions, a post which he held until 1840.Hays also gave freely of his time for Hays\u2019 life was remarkable for the diversity of his accomplishments.9, 1852.Along with buildings hike the Hays Block, the conflagration destroyed 1,100 houses and rendered 8,000 people homeless.Total property damage was estimated to be in excess of $1 million.Reports published at the time suggested that the Hays Block might have escaped the the betterment of Montreal\u2019s Jewish community, spearhcading the drive which gave the Sherith Israel congregation a new synagogue on Chenneville Street in 1838.In 1847, he helped found the Hebrew Philanthropic Society, the first organization of its kind in Canada.Hays\u2019 most ambitious commercial venture was an clegant hotel and theatre on fashionable Dalhousie Square.Designed in 1847 by John Wells, the architect responsible for the Bank of Montreal on Place d\u2019Armes, the Hays Block was a four-storey building constructed mainly of Dumscen brick imported from Scotland with a facade of sculpted stone.The front portion of the ground floor was tenanted by the Free Masons, while the back of the building housed \u201cone of the neatest and most comfortable theatres in America.\u201d The threc upper floors were given over to the hotel and stores.Like the earlier Theatre Royal (erected on St.Paul Street in 1825 and demolished in 1844 to make way for the Bonsecours Market) the Hays Theatre had a richly appointed interior with three galleries, loges to each side of the stage and seating for 1,500 patrons.The stage equipment, installed at a cost of $40,000, was of the highest standard and included a drop curtain with a scene of Windsor Castle painted by the Italian artist Martanni.calamity had a sccond fire not been intentionally set in a nearby stable.When the fire was finally extinguished, Montreal had lost its finest hotel and theatre.A small quantity of scenery saved from the theatre, including the famous Windsor Castle drop curtain, was purchased by Hays\u2019 cousin Jessie Juseph and used at the new Theatre Royal on Cote Street.The curtain remained there until 1900, when it was replaced with one displaying a regatta scene.With the destruction of his hotel and theatre, Hays lost his principal source of income and had no choice but to sell his fine residence on Cote St.Antoine.His life, however, took a more fortunate turn in 1854, when he was appointed Montreal\u2019s Chief of Police, a position he held until his death in 1861.Hays\u2019 life was remarkable for the diversity of his accomplishments, a fact not overlooked in an obituary published in The Gazette, which referred to Hays as \u201ca gentleman who was identified with and originated most of the great improvements which have helped the city on to its present maturity and high position.\u201d Philip Dombowski is the archivist for the Westmount Historical Association. 4 - Thursday, April 16, 1998 The Westmount Examiner YMCA launches World War IT memoir April 26 By WAYNE LARSEN \u201cHow does a nice Jewish boy from Montreal end up schmoozing in London and Paris with Hollywood stars, wearing the uniform of a Major in the United States Army?\u201d This question, posed by local singer/comedian George Bowser on the back cover, is answered within the pages of a new book by Roslyn Avenue resident Gordon Judson Berger, \u2018Daddy-\u2014What Did You Do in the War?\" As the title implies, Berger's chronicle of his World War Il experiences arc presented morc in the spirit of M*A*S*H* than an action adventure.Featuring

launched at the Westmount YMCA (4585 Sherbrooke W.) on Sunday, April 26 at 3 p.m.Bowser and several other critics will be on hand to read excerpts from the book.The event has been organized as a

their future.Caught up in a socicty that views sleep as a luxury instead of a necessity, teens face carly morning classes, after-school job commitments and late extracurricular activities.Sleepy teens become inattentive in school.They are unable to learn.Their grades plummet.Outside of class, sleepy teens endanger their lives and the lives of others when they drive or work.And lack of sleep also effects their health, making teens more susceptible to catching a The Westmount Examiner Sleep is important part of athletic success for active teenagers virus and missing classes.Missing out on the important sleep hours keeps many teens from excelling at extracurricular activities such as afterschool sports or competitions.While sleep allows teens to be more alert during class, it also cnables them to perform better on the court, field, rink or in the pool.Heed these sleep tips for teens from the Better Sleep Council: *Make surc teens get enough sleep.They should get at least eight hours of sleep on school nights.Let teens make up lost sleep.When your teen sleeps in on the weekend, his or her body is making up for sleep lost during the week.Talk to teens about the risks of going without sleep.Help them establish priorities.They won't do well on tests if they stay up all night studying and then fall asleep during the exam.*Make sure teens have a good sleep environment.The récipe for healthy sleep requires a room that\u2019s dark, on the coo] side, quiet, safe and comfortable.Seniors tackle aging process with weights Muscular weakness contributes to injuries, disabilities More and more seniors are taking up weight training these days, with reason.Studies clearly show that regular resistance training can counter the loss of muscle mass and reverse weuknessess once thought to be inevitable especially among those over 05 years of age.There are two rcasons for strength loss.The first is inevitable decline in muscle size.The second reason is the increasingly sedentary lifestyle of many older adults.This is something we have control over.Older people probably lose more strength than they necd to simply because they decrcase their activity level.Muscular weaknesses, espectally in the lower body.is a major contributor to injuries and disability.For example, about 40 per cent of those over 65 fall at least once a year.Regular resistance training workouts can help increase strength and thereby balance.This can be an important preventive factor for those who are willing to put in time and effoxt to remain strong, healthy and happy.EXECUTIVE HEALTM SERVICES Private

walking is a good cardiovascular workout.It\u2019s also wonderful for weight loss.Many people have discovered that walking offers relief from stress and allows you to get away from life\u2019s e j @ problems for a while.If you are looking to begin walking, there are several things to keep in mind.You will need a good shoe.There are many walking shoes on the market now and a running shoe will often do the job as well.When you try on the shoe walk around the store for a while to assess whether it's comfortable for you.Cushioning is especially important if you arc walking on hard surfaces such as the sidewalk.Support increases in importance if you begin walking on rougher terrain.You should always walk with your entire foot, rolling forward from your heel to your toe.As well, try to keep the shoulders relaxed so that you don't increase the tension in the neck and upper back area.If you pump your arms, you will increase the effort and the number of calories burned.If you have not exercised in a long time, or have never been especially active, don't worry.You don\u2019t have to start at a high intensity.You simply need to move at a comfortable pace for as long as you can.The improvements will come.Some of you might have been thinking about exercise for a while now, never entirely convinced that you would enjoy it enough to stick to it.Why not try gardening?Gardening is an excellent workout which lets you enjoy the fresh air.Your tools, shovels, and soil become the equipment necessary to sculpt both your body and your yard.Raking, shovelling and other more intense tasks can be equivalent of a moderate aerobics class.You are also benefiting from muscle toning without having to include it formally in your routine.le SPA Institut de Beauté Paulette Hirart inc.Only 125

rinks\u2019 solid water BY BoB OLIVER | Following our infamous Ice Storm \u201998 many people, with the exception perhaps\u2019 of some deranged individuals, aren't at all disappointed to sce the last of the ice melt away under scasonal spring temperatures.But when it comes to taking out the last of the ice from the surface of the Westmount Arena, multitudes of local hockey and skating fanatics arc never too pleased to sce it go.\u201cHockey's our biggest seasonal sport and we have a large number of people involved in our (hockey) program.Naturally everybody's reluctant to sce the ice go,\u201d said Westmount Sports and Recreation department assistant chieftain Mike Deegan.\u201cBut on a positive note, we ran our winter schedule a couple of weeks longer because of the week we missed during the ice storm and the weck-and-a- half we missed at the beginning of the ycar because of the ammonia problem.And now that the nice weather is here, most people arc cager to get to the outdoor sports.So, all in all, cven if pcople arc reluctant to see (the ice) go, most of them are taking the end of the hockey season in stride.\u201d In any cvent, like death and taxes, inevitably the arcna\u2019s ice surface has to be removed cach spring.And beginning on Tuesday morning, rink attendants were hard at work on the opening stages of the mclt-down.By Friday, the job, and the ice, will come to a disconcerted conclusion.\u201cIt\u2019s a big job and we nced a full crew for the removal and clean up of the rink surfaces,\u201d said stationary cngineer and Westmount rink foreman Sonny Gavin, \u201cWe'll be at it for cight hours a day to get it all done by Friday.Scraping the ice from underneath the boards and flushing out the water is always a major undertaking.\u201d Gavin and his staff of Terry Stubbs, Peter DeLuca, Robert White, Jim Lothian, Dave Clarke, Keith Webb, Fred Barkman and Cameron Smith, are currently manning two zambonis, icc loaders and cdgers, shovels and squeegics in their battle to meet Friday's deadline.Before that, the ammonia compressors, which arc soon to become obsolete, have to be turned on to bring the ammonia back to the compressor room so the rink surfaces will heat up and facilitate the melting process.Another huge task is the transportation of tons of snow gathered up and dumped out by the overworked zamboni machines.Once the job of de-icing the rinks 1s over, don\u2019t expect Gavin and his crew to be taking any well-deserved sabbaticals.From the rink, they'll be heading outdoors to start on the Westmount Municipal Pool.\u201cHow long it takes to get the pool ready depends on the weather,\u201d said Gavin.Before locals can splash around in the pool, there's the thankless undertaking of cleaning it, painting it, heating it up and preparing the chemicals to a proper level.Say what you like about dogs, but in this sports-minded town it seems boys, girls, women and men's best friend is water and ice.cer man mba as GOOD BEGINNINGS we PT r.\u2018Bruce Oliver ; -D.D.S.F.R.C.D.(C) EARLY It is recommended that a child first visit the family dentist between the ages of 36 and 48 months, while the child's primary (baby) teeth are erupting.At this early age, the pattern of dental eruption can be seen, and the parent can be alerted to developmental changes that might occur.This allows the child's first experiences with the dentist to be positive.This, in turn, begins to establish a good attitude toward dental care.At the first checkup, you will probably receive instructions on proper care of the teeth and advice on the importance of a proper diet.Thereafter, regular visits will be necessary to detect problems early and maintain good dental health.IMPORTANT A child's first visit to an orthodontist should take place when an orthodontic problem is first detected.Depending on the nature of the problem, whether it is a jaw growth problem, tooth problem or both, this first visit could take place as early as 5 years of age, to verify the eruption of the primary teeth.Whether or not an orthodontic problem is detected, a child should visit an orthodontist for a checkup no later than age 7.This may surprise you because orthodontic treatment usually is associated with adolescence.Although treatment will not necessarily begin a this early age, an examination is important to ensure that any problems can be assessed, and a follow-up visit at a later date may be scheduled.SPONSORED BY THE FOLLOWING NEIGHBORHOOD DENTISTS The following early warning signs may indicate that your child should have an orthodontic examination: ® * Early or late loss of baby teeth * Difficulty in chewing or biting * Mouth breathing ¢ Finger sucking or other oral habits * Crowding, misplaced or blocked-out teeth * Jaws that shift or make sounds * Speech difficulty .* Biting the cheek or into the roof of the mouth * Protruding teeth e Teeth that meet in an abnormal manner or don\u2019t meet at ali Facial imbalance ¢ Jaws that protrude or retrude * Grinding or clenching of the teeth An orthodotic examaination is advisable any time a particular problem is noted by the parent, family dentist or child's physician.THE BENEFITS OF EARLY DIAGNOSIS An early examination allows the orthodontist to determine how and when a child's particular problem should be treated for maximum improvement, requiring the least amount of time and providing the greatest benefit.Tel.: (514) 484-3586 Petra S.Dando B.Sc,.D.D.S.Chirurgien Dentiste - Dental Surgeon Early morning, lunchtime and
