themselves.The whistle is a good defence for personal attack on the street as well as for obscene telephone calls, members of the Westmount Senior Citizens\u2019 Centre were told last Thursday.It was one of several tips provided by a team of West- mount MUC detectives headed by Lt.-Det.Frank Pilkionis at a special crime prevention meeting at Westmount Park United Church during Police Week.They concentrated mainly on incidents to which senior citizens might be most vulnerable, such as purse snatching, theft, unwanted phone calls and get-rich-quick schemes as well as traffic safety.\u201cIf someone tries to take your purse, sit down fast,\u201d suggested Sgt.-Det.Ross Delo.This could help prevent one being knocked down.It might also help to carry money in a pocket, rather than in the purse, foiling the thief, he said.The effectiveness of this idea was shown in a film obtained for the meeting by police from the Sun Youth Organization.Some suggestions on carrying purses Women in the audience were advised to carry purses either under their coats, or firmly over the shoulder or upside down.The upside-down purse can be quickly opened, spilling the contents over the ground.Men could carry two wallets, handing over the phoney one in event of a hold-up.In any event, \u2018\u2018don\u2019t fight with a thief,\u201d the detective cautioned.\u2018He's younger than you are and more desperate.\u201d The seniors were told it was important not to advertise how much money they carried on them and to walk with a Continued on page 13 \u2018Whatever the weather.Italian { restaurant

the long Victoria Day weekend with bonfires, riot police, fireworks, explosions and a number of major fires, the police blotter and Public Security Unit reports showed West- mounters had different excitement.A holdup at the Steinberg store on Victoria avenue and Sherbrooke street Monday at 3:25 pm was the only major police incident here.Public safety officers, on the other hand, were kept busy assisting Westmount residents in a variety of dilemmas from loosened teeth to toning down noisy graduation parties.The Steinberg robbery saw two armed bandits escape on foot with $200-$300 in cash from three cashiers, police said.The weapon, possibly a sawed- off shotgun, was held by one man at the Sherbrooke street door while the other grabbed money from two cashiers as well as the Continued

Park for the city's eighth annual Family Day.\u201cIf it\u2019s raining outside, they'll have to open things inside the arena,\u201d said an official of the parks and recreation department.The band is scheduled to play for only 15 minutes, but the fun is expected to last all day.Races, more music, hayrides, a magic show, ponies, games and displays are parts of a busy program due to end at 4 pm.Last year, the department estimated that more than 3,000 Westmounters took part in Family Day activities.See also page two 2 - The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, May 26, 1983 WESTMOUNT GARDEN DEBRIS AND TREE REMOVAL Residents are advised that garden debris \u2014 grass cuttings and leaves \u2014 should be placed in containers near the household garbage or behind the sidewalk for removal by the City's refuse collectors.Tree cuttings should be bundled and tied securely.Such debris should never be placed on the sidewalk, street or lane.Residents should be advised that they are responsible for the work of their Contractors and should inform their Contractors of the City's regulations.Material may be delivered free of charge to the Corporation Yard during regular working hours.The City does not have the facilities to dispose of private trees which have been cut down.Therefore, property owners are reminded that their contracts for the removal of trees should include provision for disposal of the trunks and branches.Trees which have been affected by Dutch Elm disease should be destroyed and removed to dump sites to prevent the spread of the disease.Residents, who contravene or permit the contravention of the bylaws governing disposal of garden debris and trees are subject to fines.WESTMOUNT DETRITUS DE JARDIN ET ENLEVEMENT D'ARBRES Les personnes résidant à Westmount voudront bien prendre note que les détritus de jardin \u2014 Herbe coupée et feuilles mortes \u2014 doivent être placées dans des contenants près des poubelles de chaque maison ou à l'arrière du trottoir afin de permettre aux préposés à l'enlèvement des ordures ménagères de les recueillir Les émondes devront être réunies en fagots bien ficelés.On ne devra en aucun cas placer des détritus sur le trottoir ou dans la rue ou ruelle.Les entrepreneurs-jardiniers devront être avisés qu'ils peuvent déposer ces détritus gratuitement à la cour de la voirie municipale durant les heures régulières de travail.Il faut prendre note que les residants sont responsables du travail de leurs entrepreneurs et devraient par conséquent renseigner ces derniers concernant les règlements municipaux applicables.La Ville de Westmount n'est pas en mesure d'enlever les arbres coupés sur la propriété privée.Les propriétaires devront donc s'assurer que les contrats signés par eux pour faire couper des arbres comportent une

possession of three cubes of hashish.Saturday at Westmount Park: Family Day is result of much planning and many changes ready for big event Family Day doesn't just happen, it\u2019s the result of many months of planning and assessment from the year before.The numerous changes in this year's event taking place Saturday at Westmount Park may, in fact, be changed again for next year, according to Bruce St.Louis, the city's director of services.\u201cWe'll meet a week after the event to evaluate this year's response and pay close attention to the various comments,\u201d he said.The main setting of Family Day will be moved north this year from the playing field area to the grassy mounds closer to Sherbrooke street.\u201cWe spent a lot of time doing layout this year, concentrating activities along the pathway from the comfort station to the Melville sailing pond as a natural corridor,\u201d he explained.Natural stage \u201cThis is a real change this year,\u201d he pointed out.\u201cWe felt the grassy area was better for people to sit on than the playing field and the mounds provide a natural stage.\u201d Following up on the success of last year's hayrides, organizers have added pony rides to this year's program.They will take place on the dog run, timed to coincide with the races.The ponies will be moved inside to the arena if it rains.Those interested in hearing the Montreal Civic Orchestra probably would prefer a more serene surrounding, so that event has been set around the pond in the southwest section of the park at lunch hour.Last year, it was felt that an hour out for lunch was too long, so the lunch period has been shortened to 30 minutes this year, he said.Drinks and hotdogs will be sold by Venturers, Rangers and Girl Guides.\u201cWe tried to plan the program so that people will find something going on at any point in time.\u201d Modified sound Changes even extend to the sound system which will be modified into two mini-systems.Mr.St.Louis, who is enthusiastic for Saturday's big event, feels it\u2019s the one time of the year when Westmounters can get together outside en masse and participate in the different events.It's the first vear in many that the Westmount High School Band won't be playing over the lunch period, and there's a good reason for the change, he says.\u201cThe school strike was under way when we had to draw up our program and we just couldn't afford to wait any longer.\u201d Some of the bands and attractions must be reserved many months ahead.he said.The Black Watch Band, a popular innovation last year.will again close the show, performing on the playing field.Roving clowns Roving clowns are a new feature of this year\u2019s event as is the presence of the respiratory unit of the Mount Sinai Hospital, which will perform breathing analyses.\u201cWe changed our magician this year, too, Mr.St.Louis said, adding that the magic show was beginning to get \u201ca little stale.\u201d By LAUREEN SWEENEY As a result, there will be a new act.The favorite MUC police horses were wanted back, however, and a request for them had to be made a long time ahead.\u201cÀ big part of Family Day is the tremendous amount of help from the volunteers, generally the youths in the city's recreation program,\u2019 Mr.St.Louis said.There will be about 25 volunteers used as runners, messengers and helpers with the racers.The entire recreation staff of the city has been working since January, he said, trying to anticipate every eventuality, \u2018even to where we'll keep the lifesaving hook in case someone falls in the pond.\u201d The show will go on, rain or shine, using the arena in the morning and Victoria Hall in the afternoon in the event of wet weather , \u201cWe look forward to secin@ everyone, starting at 10 o\u2019clock when the crash of cymbals from the cadet band will announce the opening of Family Day,\u201d Mr.St.Louis said.He expects a good time will be had by all.Summit Circle robbery: MUC police win praise for arrest A Westmount woman who entered her home on Summit Circle to confront two thieves Wednesday last week has praise and thanks for MUC police who swung into hot pursuit on the mountain, arresting the pair and recovering stolen goods.A 19-year-old Ridgewood avenue man has been charged with breaking and entering as well as theft.A youth, aged 16, has been referred to social welfare court, police said.The drama leaves Evelyn Casale and her husband, a foreign consul, full of admiration for police.\u201cWe've lived all over the world and we're so impressed with the way the police here handled everything,\u2019 she told THE EXAMINER.\u201cYou hear so much criticism of the police that we want to give them the credit they deserve.\u201d She had special praise for Jean Cadieux, a constable from Station 25 who was off-duty at the time and happened to be jogging past her house when the suspects fled from it.Cst.Cadieux recognized one of the young men and was able to alert police cars which converged on the area.\u201cIt was due to his discerning and prompt action that this person was caught,\u201d Mrs.Casale said.He provided police with a description of the man and told them the suspect had headed around the summit toward Forest Park or Ridgewood.In pursuit Westmount detectives Sgt.Ross Delo and Gerald McKenna, who were in an unmarked car, headed off in pursuit.They spotted a patrol car on Côte des Neiges road which was on its way to have the radio repaired and advised the patrolmen to take up position on Ridgewood avenue.\u201cMoments later, they found the suspect coming down the mountain,\u201d related Sgt.-Det.Richard Hawley.the investigating officer, a 20-year Westmount policeman.A number of pieces of jewelry.were found in the man's pockets, the officer said.The suspect was taken to local Station 23 and through questioning police were able to obtain the identity of the second person.The 16-year-old, who lives on Côte des Neiges road, was arrested that night, he said.The story is like a police thriller \u201c from a detective book, except that it happened in Westmount.Police said the men had been observing the house and watched Mrs.Casale leave to pick up her child from school.They rang the doorbell and, recciving no answer, proceeded to the side door, which they easily forced open.They searched the master bedroom upstairs, as well as a bedroom downstairs and the dining room, then went to the basement.It was at that point, shortly before 1 am, that Mrs.Casale arrived home.She headed quickly into the house to pick up a book she needed for a course that afternoon.Her child and a nanny were still outside.\u201cWhen I walked into the house, I heard voices in the basement,\u201d Mrs.Casale said.\u201cOne man came up the basement stairs right toward me with a radio in his hands.When he saw me, he dropped it and went out by the door I had left open.\" Then the second one came up the stairs and dropped a radio and a camera, she said.\u201cI went to the phone and dialled 411 and the operator gave me the number for police.They were at the house within minutes,\u201d she recalled.Meanwhile the jogging cop had put two-and-two together, providing the information police needed to pursue the one suspect.\u201cIf I hadn't needed the book, it would have been my child and the nanny who would have gone inside alone,\u2019 she said.\u201cIt's the first time I've ever had such an experience.The police were so patient with me.\u201d The Casales moved to West- mount less than a year ago after being posted to Ottawa.They had earlier lived in the Middle East, she said.ORDER EARLY FOR FATHER'S DAY! 481-1128 344A Victoria Avenue near Sherbrooke TT Central

VERIFIRD CIRCULATION PAI We Say No rescue squad AN excuse advanced for letting West- mount's Civil Protection heavy rescue squad fall into disuse and, thereby, demoralization, is that mutual aid provides the extra manpower which may be needed at a major fire.Up to two and a half years ago we had a keen group of nine volunteers, who trained with enthusiasm; kept their equipment, which included an excellently equipped truck, up to snuff, and served Westmount citizens, through the fire brigade, for the sheer pleasure of providing service.They were originally funded through a joint federal-provincial program.There are people in this city who well understand the motivation and pleasure of voluntary service.It takes many forms.For Mr.James Black and Mr.James Butler, platoon chief and second in command, and their people, service took the form of strenuous and sometimes dangerous support of the fire brigade at serious fires.It therefore is inconceivable to citizens who followed the development of this elite group over the years to read last week that the heavy rescue squad has been permitted to fall into disuse, its equipment idle, training stopped and the two top officers left wondering how and why they have been permitted to languish.If this state of affairs of the Civil Protection unit in Westmount came about deliberately.there has been no official signalling of it.The squad, once frequently in the news, simply dropped from notice.If not a deliberate action, even more serious questions must be asked, all revolving around the one word: why?The situation came to our notice as a direct result of the current problem of THE EX AMINER with the fire brigade or, more specifically, with the fire chief, the administration to which he reports at city hall, and the members of city council who are on the record as seeing no cause to direct that the chief carry out well established policies.Hearing and reading of our problems, Messrs.Black and Butler let us know of theirs.It is a sorry tale.It would appear that a majority of council is satisfied to let the fire chief set policy, be it news, Civil Protection or what- have-you, regardless of whether or not the directions in which he takes the fire brigade are in the best interests of the city and its citizens.Perhaps the heavy rescue squad has served its purpose \u2014 which is not necessarily proven.If that is the case, the fact should be formally noted and the squad officially stood down.If not, then members of council should be demanding to know what has been done with regard to the unit over the past two years.THE EXAMINER has looked up the municipal budget and finds that, for the past two years at least, the token sum of $600 has been provided for the Civil Protection unit.By any standards, considering the nature of the equipment and the need for ongoing training, this is paltry.Last year.only $146 actually was expended.Messrs.Black and Butler have been unable to find out what even that amount was spent on.Their requests for gear and supplies have consistently been turned down, ostensibly because of no budget provision.What then is the score?It may be too late, without a thorough and determined effort, to resuscitate the unit because the now-demoralized members who comprised it have slipped away to other spare-time interests and occupations.Some readers who have been following with wonderment the banning of our chief reporter from the fire headquarters now have another insight into the problems of the brigade.It is with news reporting, as with the heavy rescue unit and many other things, a problem of inadequate and unsuitable leadership, wilful indifference at city hall, and a stubborn refusal of some coun- ctl members to face up to the evident key problem of our otherwise proud fire brigade.I say! \u201cI was in a phone booth talking to my girl when this guy opens the door, grabs me by the neck and tosses me out.\u201d the lad explained to the judge.\u201cBut,\u201d he added.*'I didn't get really mad and hit him until he grabbed my girl and threw her out, too.\u201d Pleasures of the road ALONG with several thousand others, we wish to thank some unsung senior fonctionnaire of the Quebec ministry of transport for an unforgettable experience Tuesday morning.It was a beautiful spring day and, instead of racing unheeding to the workaday activity of the office, we had two unexpected hours of admiring the sunlit bursting forth of nature, trees in immature leaf, fields turning to their deepest green, here and there the dotting of wildflowers, albeit many of them dandelions, along the roadside.It had been a long time since we had the opportunity to admire how man has recovered for his own use the swampland bordering Route 138 between Chateauguay and Caughnawaga.Or were able to inspect unhurriedly the burgeoning of private enterprise in the form of wrecking dumps for old cars alongside the highway, in joyous ignorance or perhaps defiance of provincial laws.Piles of automotive body parts make intriguing artistic forms and shadows in the first few hours after dawn.The Mercier Bridge, viewed from afar and approached ever so slowly, is a piece of engineering also to be admired in the fresh morning air which somehow manages to dominate the clouds of blue exhaust from uncounted idling internal combustion engines.The distant cars, buses and trucks looked like toys way up ahead, inching forward across the skyline \u2014 a sight not easily erased from memory.Perhaps the most valuable thing given us by the ministry's careful planner of major traffic-affecting projects was an exercise in patience.In the just under two hours between Chateauguay and Ville St.Pierre we found the peace and tranguili- ty which surely would have evaded us had we arrived at our place of work as planned by 8 am, instead of nearly 10 o'clock.Indeed, alone in a comfortable car, air conditioned and surrounded by stereophonic sound (when not listening to the traffic reports or the CBC national news for the fourth consecutive on-the-hour transmission that morning) made us keenly appreciative of General Motors products.We decided we preferred it to the Honda ahead whose rear end we now know in every detail except, strangely, its licence number.Normally we have little time for such thoughts.Our only regret thus cocooned was that we thoughtlessly had packed away in the trunk of the car the unread portions of Saturday's Gazette which, these days, seems mostly unread.This also gave rise to the thought that newsboys could have made a fortune, outpacing on foot the double rank of cars pointed to Montreal and its related island communities.In 23 years of travelling this route, never before have we experienced such a generous donation of unexpected free time from a beneficent government.The run from our farm to Westmount office, normally 50 minutes or so, was just under three hours Tuesday.Over two-thirds of that time was taken covering 9% km.Of course, there are benefits.Finance Minister Parizeau will collect 40 percent of the cost of all the extra gasoline burned by several thousand vehicles.And hourly-rated workers will have saved their employers a small packet at today's wage rates.And it was all so simple: choose just before rush-hour on the morning after a long weekend with extra traffic on the roads to funnel the four lanes from two main highways through one single-lane bottleneck on a Ville St.Pierre ramp to commence some roadwork.In addition, don\u2019t issue any warnings.The man who planned it deserves a medal.They say no man is an island.We say no big city should be on an island.Our erudite Mr.French OUR member of the National Assembly, Mr.Richard French, blossomed forth with a lot of \u2018\u2018ink\u2019\u2019 this week.On Tuesday morning his smiling face shone from the top of the front page of Le Devoir and larger still on the opposite- editorial page of The Gazette.The \u201cyoung Liberal deputy of West- mount,\u201d as Le Devoir's Gilles Lesage describes him, packs a good deal of weight among serious journalists, for good reason.He is one of the most intelligent persons sitting on either side of the Quebec provincial house.The theme of the interview, across Devoir\u2019s page one, is that both the provincial Liberals and the Parti Québecois are in a recession, both in need of new blood.The Gazette\u2019s think-piece by Graham Fraser takes an appreciative look at Mr.French's contribution to the Assembly budget debate last week in which he laid bare the PQ's ideological shift from the left to the right as demonstrated by recent events, including the latest Parizeau finance measures.Mr.French views the resultant confusion on the left with what Fraser calls \u2018\u2018a certain satisfaction.\u201d Readers of Mr.French's weekly column on these pages, \u201cOur MNA says.\u201d\u2019.have learned to expect well thought out little gems of observation on the Quebec political scene.His early disappointment, of bigger things at Quebec, after the Liberals failed to unseat the Péquistes, has not prevented Mr.French coming to be respected for his astute analyses of the Quebec political and governmental scene.That capacity is an invaluable contribution in an arena where so many of his colleagues, in both parties, appear to have lost their bearings.Her Majesty\u2019s Mail's mail WE apologize to those readers who may have looked in vain on last week's EXAMINER front page for the usual box preceding a holiday, indicating what was open and what was not \u2014 to say nothing of wishing everyone a happy Victoria or Dollard day or both, according to taste and feeling.The simple truth is that we forgot.Our usual aide mémoire is that seemingly most holiday-conscious of all bodies, Canada Post, which advises us well in advance and in considerable detail all the ways in which the population is to be deprived of mail service over a given several days.But the reminder from the postal folks didn't come this vear Correction.It came in last Thursday's mail, that was May 19, after the paper was out.We saved the envelope.It had no postmark, but was printed \u2018On Postal Service.\" Inside, the familiar litany of suspended services in the Montreal division bore the date May 10.Nine days from downtown to Westmount.Even the post office .' A few days before, we received a release from Canada Post Corp.noting that on- time delivery of mail each month recently had been better than preceding months.March's figure was 89 percent.It is nice to think that some of the PO's own mail is caught among that other 11 percent, in which most of our own and other people's mail seems to be included. \u2018\u201c * i 3 b .@ Richard D.French says.Off to Israel BY the time you read this, I shall be in Jordan, where with a group of colleagues from across Canada I shall be attempting to learn about the complexities of the political situation in the Middle East.The principal focus of the study mission will be Israel, and there is some possibility that we shall visit Lebanon as well.Although the mission has political implications, it is not organized under parliamentary auspices, but rather by an affiliate of the Canadian Jewish Congress.The participants, who are mostly academics, pay for their own air transportation and meals.On our program will be meetings with various political leaders, bureaucrats, military officers, journalists and academics.I feel extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to study Israel and its neighbors in this firsthand fashion.My reasons for wanting to learn about Israel have no necessary direct relationship to my political responsibilities.Asked for views I have, however, been surprised at the number of my Jewish constituents who ask me for my views on Israel, particularly during the nomination and election campaigns.I shall hope to be able to provide them with more informed opinions in future.My particular interest in Israel is the relationship between the Ashkenazi, Sephardic, and Arab populations, and their reflection in the political system.Israeli politics operates on a basis of proportional representation elected from party lists, rather than by geographical districts as we do in Canada.I want to see close-up what this means to the Knesset and its effectiveness.I am also interested in Israel\u2019s economic policies and problems, which involve a very successful defence manufacturing sector, an aggressive labor force which is ethnically stratified, and major trade deficits.Any Quebecer would have to be interested to see how a courageous people, a little more than three million strong, copes with such challenges.Hon.Donald J.Johnston says.Projects planned OVER the past few weeks, I am sure you have heard about the variety of major projects announced by the federal government.These projects are part of the special recovery capital program as announced in the April 19 budget and for which I was given overall responsibility.As promised in the budget, some 100 major initiatives valued at over $2.2 billion have been announced in every region of the country.You may recall that these projects were designed to provide Canada with a permanent economic infrastructure which shall enhance our country\u2019s long-term growth.In addition, these projects provide thousands of jobs and enrich the economic potential of dozens of communities.They are not new projects.They are measures that have been under consideration for some time, but are being accelerated to begin now when Canada needs them most, rather than at some point in the future.These projects will be \u201cfast tracked\u2019 to move through the bureaucratic channels quickly and on budget.Most of these developments will begin construction within six months, and will be completed in two years.Recent initiatives Montreal and the surrounding area will profit greatly from these projects.Here isa list of the recent initiatives in our Continued on next page The Westmount LI BURNT MY TOAST THIS MORNING ED.DON'T TELL THE &, EXAMINER EZ IE 71) You Say Examiner, May 26, 1983 - 5 Thursday, What has happened to the Quebec | loved?Should | leave?graduate asks Sir: Like many other Anglophone students graduating this year I find myself faced with perhaps the most pivotal decision in my life, namely, am I to establish myself in Quebec and wage war with the great many difficulties that plague this province or am I to follow the majority of my peers and seek my fortune elsewhere?It is most difficult to separate one\u2019s heart from one\u2019s mind and I have spent many sleepless nights pitting what logically appears to be a rocky future against my love for this city which I have become deeply attached to.It has become increasingly clear to me that to place all of my eggs in Quebec's basket is most dangerous.Although my decision to prepare myself to settle elsewhere is a product of my particular circumstances, I doubtlessly have tangled with the same emotional and intellectual constraints that my successors and predecessors shall or already have confronted.To the extent that my conclusions can be of some value to my successors and to the extent that I can alleviate some of the confusion and helplessness incidental in dealing with this crucial issue, I would like to share the fruits of my realization.To my mind, the thought process is a two- step procedure.Firstly, one considers what sort of future he may reasonably anticipate in this province.Then, in the alternative, one asks himself if his potential for happiness is greater elsewhere.Having graduated with two degrees and being a dual American-Canadian citizen, my ability to settle elsewhere is comparatively flexible.Nevertheless, persons more inflexible than myself and especially persons intent on staying here will want to reflect upon the following paragraphs.I grew up in what was a truly a \u2018\u2018golden era\u201d in Montreal and, although I still adore what is one of the most captivating cities in the world, I need only look to the events of the past year to understand why the majority of my peers are graduating and leaving.It is appreciated that the majority of this province is entitled to protect its language.However, it must also be recognized that it is Montreal's bilingual character that sets it above all other unilingual cities and as such there is absolutely no excuse for Bill 101 and the goon squad office appointed to oversee its directives.Why does our government focus its energies on defending the \u201cright to die in French\u2019 and why are nurses and other professionals subjected to French examinations which have no correlation with their working vocabulary and which the French themselves cannot pass?Why does a government already hard pressed under the current recession throw away millions of tax dollars by changing \"Stop\" signs to \u201c\u2018Arrét\u201d signs?Is the French language really being protected by requiring the francization of English names and phrases which bear no meaningful French translations\u201d Can we justify the enormous expense and inconvenience caused by requiring that corporations and other business enterprises conduct internal and external affairs in French even when both of the communicating parties are English-speaking?At a time when unemployment is reaching frightfully high levels, inflation is continuing to swallow up our purchasing power and the recession is deepening, it is clear that getting the economy back on its feet should be the prime concern of any rational government.Why then is our government throwing away our tax dollars on language enforcement and the renovation of the National Assembly toilets?Why is time and energy expended on ridiculous side issues such as the aborted bill to enable people to bring their own wine into Quebec restaurants?\u201d Why does our government stand idle when our transport system, hospitals, teachers and other public sectors repeatedly go on strike?Doesn't our government realize that such strikes have a ripple effect on our dying economy in addition to demoralizing and strangling the citizens of this province?Who, then, is to bear the financial responsibility for a government that has managed only to stimulate a mass exodus of corporations and individuals?I am told that our taxes already exceed those of the other pro- Continued on page 23 6 - The Westmount Examiner, Tae We bnew Ue sma

in the world today is a widespread phenomenon which began in Berkeley, California, and spread throughout the land to other highly developed countries of the western hemisphere.Its causes have been brought about through the rapid changes in society and in the university community, said Dr.Michael Oliver, vice-principal, academics, McGill University, speaking to the Westmount Rotary Club.The changes represent the growth in size of universities and their new importance through research and as a supplier of technical specialists in the world's industrial growth, he said.These changes cause students to look upon the university no longer as a preparation for the participation in the life of society, but as an integral part of an industrial society whose values they mistrust.\u201d Five

volume and prices were down, if only slightly, from the March figures which might indicate the market has taken a tiny step back.Adjusted statistics, though, show the market just ahead of the place it

The picture dates back to 1914, and shows the Norwegian collier Storstad after its collision with The Empress of Ireland.The small damage seen at the bow was all it took to send The Empress to the bottom and, as a result, 1,012 persons drowned in the St.Lawrence river near Rimouski, West- mount\u2019s twin city.The first clue to the origin of the picture came from an interview aired on CJAD with Andy Barrie (a former Westmounter) and Herbert P.Wood.The latter recently had published a book Till We Meet Again, the subject of which was the sinking of the Canadian Pacific liner.The name Storstad was mentioned and thus connected with the picture.While looking for the book, I turned to the Double Hook on Greene avenue and not orfly found it, but also a second book.It was titled Fourteen Minutes and was written by James Croal and first published in 1978.Armed with this information, it was easy to piece the story together.The Empress sailed with 1,477 persons on board from Quebec City on May 28, 1914, heading for Liverpool.A large contingent of Salvation\u2019 Army members going to a convention in London was among the 1,057 passengers.Responsible for the CP ship was Capt.Hepry George Kendall, and as they approachéd Father Point, they entered d'Patch of fog: In the fog was the:Storstad, under Capt.Thomas Andersen, heading for Montreal.How the two ships met is still clouded since the testimony given by the two parties was contradictory.The fact remains that the bow of the Storstad hit the Empress of Ireland on her starboard 486-3680 Me Guy Meury, BA, LLL

a day-care network is established which meets the required norms; e and a parliamentary commission has the chance to come to grips with the demands of the interested parties.In a letter addressed to

growing concern Many Westmounters were busy putting in their gardens this past weekend and hoping that we have seen the last of nightly frosts.I was dismayed again this year to find that the tomato plants in the garden of my Italian neighbors were considerably more vigorous looking than mine.It must be that they receive more sun.Anyway, now that the tomatoes are in I can turn my attention to replacing the two rose bushes that went to that great greenhouse in the sky Westmount's by RICK KERRIGAN Have your PORTRAIT PAINTED in oil paint Call Sheila: 932-9952 A random sampler of things to see or do Borders thanks to the lack of an insulating snow cover this winter If you need help with your indoor or outdoor plants or if you just enjoy seeing things growing, the Montreal Botanical Gardens, 4101 Sherbrooke street east, has a service for you.Along with the nine exhibition greenhouses, to which there is an admission charge this year, there are the outdoor gardens which are still free.A ycarly membership for a very small fee is available for all the exhibitions.In the begonia house the current exhibition features about 150 different plants of 50 species of Tillandsia.These are plants like Spanish moss which get nourishment through their leaves and not their roots.Information is free for the asking from personnel in the greenhouses.They'll give advice on house and garden plants, explain the themes of the greenhouses and the best time to see particular blooms.Children 10 to 16 years old can participate in the theoretical and practical gardening courses given by the Botanical Gardens at Angrignon Park.This way, if your garden fails, at least the kids will bring home some veggies.For information on these courses call 252-8210.Take a hike A group called Randonnées Plein Air du Québec is organizing a 25-km hike for Sunday beginning 10 am in the St.Calixte Nord area.It is not a race, but you do have to complete the distance in six hours and have a card punehed at control points.You will receive a certificate for the accomplishment.À sag wagon will accompany the hike through the rolling countryside and a bus will be leaving Montreal Sunday morning to take you to the starting point if you don't have a car.Bring your lunch.For more information and to register call 677-7616 or 334-6985.Cycle path update In an item on the Seaway bike path last week I mentioned that it was inaccessible by Ile Notre Dame because bikes weren't allowed on the island.I just discovered, however, that the guard is no longer posted at the end of the Concorde Bridge and you can cycle

Seniors\u2019 Centre hosts one-day exercise program Westmount Senior Citizens\u2019 Centre hosted a one-day workshop last Wednesday for 55 professionals and volunteers who conduct exercise programs for seniors.Elsie German, a Montreal exercise consultant who specializes in gerontology, led the participants through theoretical discussions and practical demonstrations of exercise techniques for the elderly.The workshop coincided with National Physical Activity Week, May 15 to 23, proclaimed in West- mount by Mayor Donald Mac- Callum at the statutory May city council meeting.Ms.German first explained the physiological changes which tend to weaken parts of the body with age, according to Karma Price, a centre staff member who attended the workshop.Many of the exercises recommended for seniors can be done in a seated position.Often, half an exercise class is spent on slow, limbering-up activities during which everyone sits in a chair, Miss Price said.Based on age Different activities and programs were recommended for seniors based on their level of ability.Handicapped, less mobile or frail senior citizens are encouraged to strengthen the healthier parts of their bodies.Healthy, active seniors can exercise standing up, using chairs for balance as required.Ms.German also reviewed games and dances which form part of a complete exercise routine for seniors.Bean bags, batons, parachutes and nerf balls are some of the equipment seniors can use to develop hand-eye and hand-foot co-ordination.Miss Price said such co-ordination is important for all seniors since perception changes with age.\u2018Curbs and the steps to the bus aren\u2019t always in the same place,\u201d she said.The workshop stressed the importance of making exercise fun for seniors, Miss Price said.\u201cThey figure it\u2019s too late, but it\u2019s not too late.\u201d Members of the Westmount Senior Centre provided workshop participants with a healthy lunch.Professionals and volunteers from hospitals, residences for the Keys lifted Car keys were reported stolen Saturday afternoon after they had been left in the trunk lock of a blue 1981 Datsun in front of 596 Grosvenor

was unable to turn the lock in her front door to enter her home.Police arrived and helped her enter through a basement window.The electricity was found to have been turned off in the building, police

Westmount Examiner, Thursday, May 26, 1983 19 Help us make them happy.In 1981, we the Little Sisters of the Poor initiated a major renovation project.With a large family of elderly to be cared for, and faced with the needs of major repair work on the house (roof.windows, laundry room, heating, etc.) we placed our faith in Providence and the generosity of our fellow citizens and undertook the task of adapting Ma Maison Saint-Joseph to present-day needs.We felt that we owed the elderly such work as a gesture of justice and love towards them.Unite yourself with the Little Sisters of the Poor\u2019s work with the elderly by contributing financially to the alterations and renovations of the residence.FUNDS NEEDED: 93,000,000 The dormitories, most of which contained six beds and were lacking washbasins, have been replaced by bedrooms and small two-room apartments $o thal we do not have to separate couples who in certain cases have over half a century of married life behind them.A day centre has been set up for the elderly living in the neighborhood, so that they too may benefit from the material and moral advantages provided by Ma Maison Saint-Joseph and need not suffer the misery and dangers of solitude.We receive no governmeni subsidies for construction.Through your generosily alone may we continue our cause of the elderly, in .the same spirit as that which has been °

devote life to caring for elderly It was characteristic of Jeanne Jurgan\u2019s compassion for the elderly that she took into her home in Saint Servan (Saint Malo), Brittany, one winter evening in 1839, an old, blind, half-paralyzed woman and began caring for her.And soon after, a second woman, a third, a fourth .until, three years later, she was caring for 26 old women in what was called the House of the Cross in Saint Servan, with the help of others who had joined her in this selfless ministry.Characteristic too was the humility and grace with which Jurgan responded to an old bachelor who struck her when she was out begging for leftovers from meals, clothes, money, anything to care for her senior wards: \u2018\u201cThank you, that was for me; now please give me something for my poor.\u201d Way of life Prayer and begging, on behalf of the elderly, have become a way of life for thousands of women around the world who were inspired by Jeanne Jurgan\u2019s example.They are known as the Little Sisters of the Poor, an order recognized since May 29, 1852 as a proper religious congregation within the Roman Catholic Church.Today there are 4,400 Sisters caring for 32,000 elderly in 259 homes in 30 countries.In Montreal, 18 Little Sisters tend to 120 senior residents at Ma RELIGION KENNETH CLEATOR Maison Saint-Joseph, 5605 Beau- bien St.E., the only Canadian branch of the order.\u2018\u201c\u201cWe pray and beg for the love of Jesus and the comfort of our elderly residents,\u201d said Sister Superior Rose Marie, slender and correct in her modern black habit \u2014 below-the-knee black dress and black headpiece trimmed with white at the forehead.\u201cOur object is to create a homelike, familial atmosphere where our people may share with each other and live happily until they die here.\u201d The resident nuns reflect the international character of Ma Maison Saint-Joseph \u2014 eight from Canada, three each from the U.S., Ireland and France, and one from Malta, Sister Paul, the cook.In addition to the loving care of the Sisters, the mostly French- speaking residents \u2014 70 women, 50 men \u2014 enjoy their chapel and the ministrations of their elderly chaplain, Franciscan Fr.Hughes Beauregard; a crafts room where they are kept busy making items for their gift shop; a hair salon for the ladies and barbershop for the men; a tuck shop for personal items; and a \u2018\u2018Happy Hour\u201d cvery Sunday afternoon, when they enjoy free spirits, wine and beer.At age 104, Mme Mary Lemay, who came to Ma Maison Saint- Joseph in September 1965, is the oldest resident.She is very alert, although a little deaf, and spends her days sewing.She made her own dress for her 100th birthday.The average age of the residents is 84 and none is rich.Most exist on their old-age pensions, the greater part of which helps pay for their board and lodging.The home subsidizes the difference between the actual cost of their keep and their contributions.Renovation program Currently, a building and fund- raising program is under way at Ma Maison Saint-Joseph.\u201cWhen we are finished our buildings will be better equipped and cheaper to maintain, and every resident will have his or her private room,\u201d said Sister Rose Marie.\u201cThere will also be accommodation for 12 married couples and a day care centre for 200 elderly non-residents, where they can spend the day enjoying handicrafts and whatever is scheduled on the daily program.\u201d The renovation program will cost $6 million, half of which is being raised by local contributions.À committee of leading bankers, businessmen and others is spearheading the drive.Catholic parishes are generous to the order.They are always large-hearted when the Sisters go calling on Sundays, soliciting money and food.In its carly days, the Montreal order existed on donations from the Irish parishes of St.Ann, St.Anthony, St.Gabriel and St.Patrick, as well as gifts from merchants in the district, the Archdiocese and a few religious communities already established in Montreal.Parishes agreed Irish Redemptorist, Father John Catulle, pastor of St.Ann°s Church, had requested Bishop l-abre to allow the nuns to come.The Bishop consented, provided the four Irish parishes agreed to it.They did.Eventually five Sisters from England, Ireland and France came to establish the Montreal foundation in 1887.Renting three small houses on Fulford St.(now Georges-Vanier) in Pointe St.Charles, they took in two old women and onc old man by the end of September 1887.In 1889 when their quarters became overcrowded, they moved to a home at 1800 Dorchester W., and then, in 1957, to the spacious, modern residence on Beaubien St.Contributions, income tax deductible, may

Westmount Examiner, Thursday, May 26, 1983 Proud and capable Armed Forces take part in war games Don Suncton, editor of The Town of Mount Royal Weekly Post, represented that paper and THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER in a group of community newspaper editors and publishers from ucross the country who were invited by the Canadian Armed Forces from May 12 to 16 to view their large war games exercise, Rendezvous 83, on the sprawling Camp Wainwright in Alberta.The exercise guve a special opportunity to see the overall workings and capabilities of the country\u2019s armed forces.Here is his report: By DON SANCTON One would be hard pressed to think of a country in which the military plays such a small role in the everyday lives of its citizens than Canada.Except for the October Crisis in 1970 or during the Olympics in 1976, few Westmounters probably have ever seen our soldiers at work.Most probably are very glad that is the case.It is now 30 years since Canadian soldiers last saw combat duty in Korea.A generation of Canadians has grown up without knowing what it is like to be at war.To that generation, war and armies and guns and uniforms are for other nations.That generation knows little of the workings of the military in general and probably less about the Canadian Armed Forces in particular.A massive war-games exercise such as Rendezvous 83 in Wainwright, Alberta, thus provides someone who knows little about war and the military with an excellent learning opportunity, a chance to see that the nation\u2019s armed forces are for real and that they are made up of, on the whole, a dedicated group of men and women who go about their jobs FRESH VERMONT LAMB CUSTOM CUT AND FREEZER READY in time for the summer barbecue!

made all the more remarkable by their admission that few of their fellow countrymen know or appreciate what they are doing.Largest exercise Rendezvous '83 (or RV 83 as it is abbreviated, like almost everything else in the military) is the largest exercise undertaken by the Canadian Armed Forces in the past two years.It is providing an opportunity for units which train separately at bases across the country to work together (or against each other; someone has to play the enemy as well).The war games part of the exercise began May 12 and will continue through to the end of May.On either side of those dates, however, is an equally important exercise in moving men and equipment from across the country and back again, a task military historians will confirm is about as important as any battle itself.One cannot win a battle without men, machines and supplies all being in the right place at the right time.The movement of armored vehicles, jeeps, trucks and other battle equipment to Camp Wainwright was no simple job.A total of 373 railway cars were needed, along with 664 road vehicles.Then came the troops, close to 7.500 men and women flown in from across the country, all then deployed over the massive Camp Wainwright base, a huge tract of rather desolate countryside a 2%a-hour drive southeast of Edmonton, near the Saskatchewan border.Camp Wainwright, with its scrubby trees, sandy soil and rolling hills dotted with rifle and artillery ranges accessible by tracks fit for only the toughest of military vehicles, will never be a great tourist site, despite the paddock of grazing buffalo just inside its main gates.It was a German prisoner of war camp during the Second World War and continues as a permanent training base for the armed forces.It might not be pretty, but for learning warfare the place is great.NATO obligation The specific warfare RV 83 is designed to exercise is Canada's obligation under NATO to defend northern Norway in the event of war in Europe against the Soviet Union.To fulfill this obligation, the armed forces have set up the Canadian Air/Sea Transportable Brigade Group, known as CAST.CAST is a composite formation A STALKING COUGAR: A Cougar \u201cwheeled fire support vehicle\" rumbles along a dusty track in the \u2018battle\u2019 area at the Canadian Armed Forces\u2019 Rendezvous 83 exercise at Camp Wainwright, Alberta.The Cougar, like a tank but on wheels and without heavy armor, is used as a tank trainer by the armed forces.It has a crew of three and can travel up to 100 km/h on land and 10 km/h on water.It carries a 76 mm main gun, a 7.62 mm machine gun and two four-barrel grenade launchers.built mainly around the Headquarters Special Service Force based in Petawawa, Ont.It is commanded by Brig.-Gen.R.I.Stewart.The CAST group also includes a number of other regiments and battalions from across the country, including the Second Battalion of Quebec's Royal 22e, the Vandoos.Also a part of CAST is a composite helicopter squadron made up of several squadrons flying Kiowa light observation helicopters, Huey utility lift helicopters and the large, double- rotored Chinook transport choppers.Montreal and Westmount probably have their closest connection with CAST in this helicopter squadron.A number of local residents are members of the air reserve, taking time from their civilian jobs and families to work regularly at St.Hubert to train with 401 City of Westmount Squadron or 438 City of Montreal Squadron.These air reserve squadrons have been active at RV 83 by sending four or five men a week to the exercise on a rotating basis.These men have been taking a week's holiday or leave from their daily jobs to get in some valuable training in battle-type conditions and to supplement the strength of the regular forces\u2019 squadron.Westmount squadron A group from 401 City of West- mount Squadron returned May 20 after a week at RV 83 and were replaced by others.Included in the group returning that day was haute coiffure HUSIONS the cut that sets up the style, o new feeling, uncomplicated, unfussy, but feminine 390 victoria avenue, westmount 489-4589 Lt.-Col.Mike Thibault, the commander of the squadron, who in everyday civilian life is a pilot for Air Canada.A Canadian fighting army, like any other, is built up of a collection of smaller units.The basic fighting unit in the field is a section of 10 to 12 men.The next larger groups are platoons or troops.These, in turn, are united to form companies, squadrons or batteries and four or six of these make up a battalion or regiment.In regular yearly exercises, these units of 600 to 1,000 persons are the largest assembled.RV 83, however, was designed to give the troops and their commanders practice with working at the next larger levels, the brigade with 4,000 to 6,000 persons and a division, made up of two to three brigades.It is the CAST Brigade Group which will form up and move off by ship and air to northern Norway in the event of increased tension preluding war in Europe.Once in Norway, they would work with the Norwegians as a deterrent force and demonstrate NATO solidarity.In the event of an attack, the Canadian forces would reinforce local Norwegian forces in defending their nation.Though no Norwegian forces are taking part in RV 83, the exercise does have an international flavor with the participation of an infantry battalion from the U.S.Army's 101st Airborne Division from Kentucky.This exchange is one of many joint training exercises held from time to time between Canadian and U.S.forces.War exercises The actual war exercises were just getting under way at the time of our visit and a tour through the field gave a wonderful opportunity to see how the armed forces wouid work in time of war.Though their guns would be firing blanks, for these men the exercise was a Very real procedure.Their job is to be ready to fight and this was the best opportunity they and their commanders have had in two years tc find out how ready they are.À visitor could not help but be impressed with what he saw in the field.To a man, the soldiers were friendly and polite when the visitors interrupted their routine, be it manning a field headquarters post, preparing a giant 105 mm field artillery piece or preparing to spend the night in a battle cooped up in the startlingly small confines of a Cougar tank trainer.They knew their equipment Continued on next page ASIE ISA Te CS AS AE SA, Nihon in.rar réa FORCES.Continued from previous page well, knowing their lives might one day depend on that knowledge.When asked, they were also quite frank that they would appreciate having newer and more advanced equipment, but they seemed to recognize the practical limitations to what they could expect to acquire.These were obviously soldiers proud of the work they are doing.Whatever the variety of original motivations for joining the armed forces, all seemed well motivated to the tasks at hand in the exercise and they seemed happy to eld, despite the privations involved with living in tents on cold nights and eating field rations.Of the latter, however, the consensus seemed to be that the freeze-dried food was of quite satisfactory quality.e the chance to be out in the A proud lot Indeed, there seems to be a pride throughout all levels of the armed forces of the quality of the men and women who comprise our military.The economic situation certainly has helped, with officers admitting they now have the luxury of picking only the best from the many attracted to the recruiting offices by the lure of a steady job and interesting life.As one soldier commented: \u201cThe recruiting campaign really is right.There's no life like it!\u201d The quality of the officers in the Canadian Armed Forces is a reflection of how they are selected.Almost all have had their officers\u2019 training at military college and, as was confirmed by Maj.-Gen.Douglas Baker, commander of RV 83, there is little room in the forces for an officer without a university degree.A visitor to an exercise such as RV 83 also is struck by the realization that the military is one of our few truly national institutions.Representatives of almost every province could be found in even the smallest unit in the field, though certain regiments still do tend to draw most of the members from specific regions.One can and does, however, get a feeling for Canada as a whole by meeting persons from across the nation who are united in defending her.End this month The actual war games of RV 83 are continuing until the end of May, following which it will take until June 15 to get all the people and equipment back to their home bases.By the time it is over, some $7.5 million of taxpayers\u2019 money will have been spent, though the actual extra cost of the exercise is closer to $4 million, as the balance would have had to have been spent on food and supplies for the soldiers whatever they were doing.Many would argue that that is too much to spend preparing for the death and destruction of war.Others would say there is no price too great to ensure the defence of our country and our way of life.For most of the men sleeping in Qo: on the Alberta scrubland 1is month, however, such philosophical and political questions are moot.They are too busy with the job they have chosen to do, a job they are determined to do well.Bent fender The fenders and headlights of a blue 1978 Pontiac were reported damaged last Thursday after the car had been left parked in the garage of the apartment at 4501 Sherbrooke street, police said.Damage was estimated at $100 following the incident, which had taken place sometime between the end of April and May 19.DESIGNER'S CHOICE: The Shaar Hashomayim

second term in the June 3 school elections.Voters will still have a choice, however, in a three-way race between Ray Doucet, William Siemienski and William Anjo.In ward 4 of the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal Joan Rothman, the incumbent, remains uncontested so far.The deadline for declaring candidacy for the MCSC and PSBGM is June 6.Westmount is included in ward 3 of the MCSC and ward 4 of the PSBGM.Mr.Quinlan cites personal reasons for not running again.He told THE EXAMINER he decided a year ago not to run but waited to announce his decision until he was sure a suitable candidate would run in his place.He says Mr.Doucet has proved to be such a candidate.Mr.Quinlan said he would feel comfortable with a candidate that fulfilled two conditions.One was that the person would support the confessional school system and not the linguistic system which has been proposed by many.Mr.Quinlan is not opposed to the linguistic system, per se, but feels it is unwise at this time to surrender any rights guaranteed by the British North America Act.He believes the linguistic system should not be considered until the current government is defeated.He feels the Parti Québecois government has not acted in good faith with the school boards.Must be federalist The other condition was that the person be a federalist and not a Quebec nationalist.Mr.Quinlan says he would

\u2018\u2018Probe\u201d column, father of two children in the French sector of the MCSC, and a resident of N.D.G., told THE EXAMINER that he is a strong opponent of the school board reorganization proposed by Camille Laurin, the education minister.He also feels the current commissioners are not fighting the plan hard enough.\u201cI am going to run for commissioner because they are not standing up to him (Mr.Laurin),\u201d said Mr.Doucet, adding \u201cI will stand up to him.\u201d He wants to give the education minister the message that he should \u201cback off\" and that the schools should be in the hands of the parents, children and teachers.\u201cThe school system is too important to be left in the hands of the bloody politicians,\u201d he declared.The fact that only a few parents participate in school committees and at the board level leaves Mr.Doucet undaunted.\u201cAs long as there is only one parent working in the school,\u201d he says, \u2018the schools belong to the parents.\u201d Mr.Doucet supports the confessional school system but maintains that he is open to discussion on the linguistic system.\u201cI will keep in mind that I represent my constituents,\u201d he said.\u201cI am open to changes but they must come from the parents.\u201d On the other hand, Mr.Doucet says he will not try to be all things to all people.He claims that many commissioners now are

original White Paper on school reorganization, parents and citizens wasted no time in letting him know they wanted no part of it.The Minister planned to abolish locally elected school boards and

83.2% think schools should be under the jurisdiction of school boards.76.6% say school commissioners should continue fo be elected by universal suffrage.Only 5.7% feel any urgency to reorganize our school system.Québecers want to retain their local school boards with real authority to manage and operate their community's schools.They want the right to choose representatives who will make sure that schools deliver quality education.They want to be certain that schools can never be used as a forum for partisan politics.Now the Minister says he has changed the plan, but when you read the fine print, there are no real changes at all.The Minister's costly revisions ignore demands for strong school boards that provide a sensible balance of power between the state and the local community.Instead, Dr.Laurin is trying to mislead the community with verbal maneuvering and political subterfuge.By shifting public elections to the school council level and creating literally thousands of school commissioners, he will eliminate school board access to a real public mandate.The Minister's plan will atomize local leadership and open the door to further centralize and bureaucratize our school system.The quality of education is certain to suffer.Dr.Laurin says he will give Anglophone communities their own school boards.The truth is, all communities will lose their school boards, and the Minister will be left at the top of a new educational pyramid where he will be master of all he surveys.Real democracy is still in danger.Keep up the fight to save your

vinces and, as our government has welcomed the departure of corporate and individual taxpayers, the conclusion is all too clear \u2014 those of us who choose to stay will have to dig deeper! That the situation is even more outrageous than I initially imagined is evidenced by what has been a continuous onslaught of political scandals.One cannot but raise an eyebrow to the humiliating reports of grotesque sexual activity, non- arm'\u2019s-length \u2018\u2018freebies\u2019\u2019 and payoffs, shoplifting of petty items and various coverups.It is understood that shady behavior is not uncommon in political circles.owever, our government has succeeded in Hdiculing even what little faith there may have been.If your love for Montreal is as true as mine, then political harassment and economic sterility may not be enough to make you consider living elsewhere.However, how does it grab you that our English schools are disappearing at an alarming rate and the very existence of our school board system is being threatened?The government has cut back its financial support for CEGEPs and universities to the point where quality is being readily sacrificed and I have become increasingly skeptical that our universities will be able to attract top-notch teaching candidates.Upon graduation I had planned to develop an interest in theatre, art, music and various other cultural activities.Although Montreal cannot be scoffed at in this regard, it is abundantly clear to me that we no longer have the same quantity and diversification of such activities.Many English theatres have vanished, good live music is often hard to find and we do not seem to attract the same variety of big- name entertainers or sporting events.Needless to say, the streets of Montreal still sparkle with exquisite women, boutiques and cuisine, and the whole is packaged in an ambience that is both dazzling and divine.However, although there are many people intent on staying and trying to effect change through organizations such as Alliance Québec, even a die-hard optimist like myself cannot but doubt the ability of this lacklustre outfit to guide the plight of a rapidly diminishing anglophone community.If being fluently bilingual were the answer then I would have no hesitation to lay down my fears.However, the real tragedy is that a great deal of prejudice is rooted in the very fact of being an anglophone, albeit a bilingual one.Consequently, I am truly saddened by the prospect of being torn away from my friends, family and childhood memories and, like the majority of my peers, I see the writing on the wall and must now seriously consider settling elsewhere.Stuart E.Wainberg 66 Forden crescent WESTMOUNT H3Y 2Y4 Nutik seeking review of computer decision A copy of the following letter has been sent to THE EXAMINER.The City Council c/o The City Clerk City of Westmount 4333 Sherbrooke street west Westmount, Quebec H3Z 1E2 Dear Members of City Council, At a recent city council meeting following the motion to acquire a new IBM 38 computer system, you will recall that I asked some questions on the subject during the question period.As a result of further investigation, there Fre several concerns to which the council might furnish answer for the record: 1) Is the System 34 IBM computer in use in the city working adequately for the city\u2019s present needs?2) Was an independent professional consultant retained by Westmount to study the problem, and is there a report?3) Is there a purchase option for the System 34; if so, how much?4) Instead of a replacement System 38, was a System 36 considered?5) Was any computer equipment other than IBM considered?If not, why not?6) What is the difference in price between purchasing the System 34 and acquiring the System 38?As a strict practical business decision in tough times, why did the council opt for a new system?A formal response to these questions would be appreciated at the next council meeting in June.Considering open criticism of the city's tendering and specifications system in the past, especially in the matter of tractors, it is clear that the purchasing practices of our city are, at best, inconsistent.Perhaps a \u2018\u2018public policy review\u2019 might be in order \u2014 particularly for the new computer system.Awaiting your consideration, I am Faithfully yours, Allen E.Nutik P.O.Box 397 WESTMOUNT H3Z 2T5 Amanda still panting for Westmount news Sir: It is with sorrow that we conclude that THE EXAMINER has gone the way of The Montreal Star.When January, February and March passed without a single issue gracing our mailbox we were willing to pin it on the Canadian postal service.Now that six months have elapsed with no news from Westmount, and our handmade collage addressed to yourself, pleading for renewal of our subscription, having elicited no response we must assume that THE EXAMINER is no more.Has the PQ taken to handling the press à la Polonaise?Perhaps the absence of a certain dog columnist forced mass cancellation of subscriptions and advertising accounts.Should your esteemed journal ever resume publication we will be only too pleased to send you a cheque for lots of US dollars (a very stable currency) so that we may once again be kept up to date on the daily doings of our dearly missed Westmount.(We understand that we are no longer entitled to complimentary copies although it could well be pointed out that this writer succeeded in putting THE EXAMINER on the map, so to speak; its italicized title appearing in The Gazette under Mr.Blackman's byline; several times under Thomas Slur- monger\u2019s, always inaccurately by the way; under Beverly Mitchell's, etc., in connection with the escapades of your only four- legged employee.But we won't go on.Nor will we mention the two interviews on CBC radio.We won't remind you that on the second such occasion we said that we had not found a local paper \u2018\u2018having the subtle sophistication of THE WESTMOUNT Ex- AMINER.\u201d Fame, sir, at little cost to yourself.) Should ink once again reach paper under your auspices you may well find yourself short of letters to the editor.Please feel free to use this one to get the ball rolling.With uninformed sincerity, we remain, Yours truly, Amanda 70 S.Broadway NYACK NY 10960 Editor\u2019s note: Alas, the Canadian postal service or, perhaps, the American appears to have let Amanda and her master down.Regular readers of the still-publishing EXAMINER will recall our late dog columnist\u2019s pictorial letter to the editor, her furry black paws holding The New York Times, some months ago.A copy of that paper went to Amanda so she would know why her free copies had stopped.(If we provided complimentary mailings to all former contributors and friends of THE EXAMINER, this would be a free-circulation newspaper.) Postage on free copies to the U.S.now is very expensive.We'll try again sending a copy of this issue to Nyack.Perhaps the postman there has an aversion to delivering matl to canines.Investments in Quebec only by governments Sir: Hon.Donald Johnston's announcement of a federal government grant of $61 million for a new biotechnology laboratory for Montreal has to be one of the few encouraging announcements this spring even though it does come right out of the pocket of the average citizen.Mr.Johnston followed up this wonderful news by assailing the \u2018pessimists\u2019 for lamenting the economic decline of Montreal and the shift of head offices to the \u201cwest.\u2019\u2019 The west must have been moved in the Canadian geography books because cities like Toronto and Ottawa are now considered western cities by Mr.Johnston and The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, May 26, 1983 - 23 his colleagues.But you would think that an elected official would ask himself at some point in time, \"Why are people and companies continuing to leave Montreal?Why does the private sector continue to move out?Why are the two Quebec-based governments, in Ottawa and Quebec City, the only people investing money in new facilities in the city?\u201d Is it because Canadian citizenship is no longer any guarantee of equal treatment in Quebec?Is it because the Trudeau government has condoned the abrogation of the guarantees for all citizens contained in the BNA Act without any legal referral of these actions to the Supreme Court of Canada or without even a formal debate in the federal Parliament?How can a man in Mr.Trudeau's position possibly endorse a piece of nationalistic fanaticism like Bill 101 in La Presse and then in the next breath try to claim that he supports bilingualism?And where was her majesty's loyal opposition while democracy was being subverted in Quebec and replaced with restrictions upon citizens based upon their nationality.It makes you ashamed to admit you're a Canadian if the price of \u2018\u2018national unity\" is the sacrifice of the very principles upon which our democracy itself is based.More and more people seem to be arriving at the conclusion that it makes more sense to relocate where Canadian traditions, values and laws are still respected and upheld than to live in an insular society which judges citizens\u2019 rights on the basis of nationality.Until the formal guarantees of equality contained in the MacDonald-Cartier accord are re-established, the exodus will continue.All the insults, excuses and verbal assaults upon so-called \u2018pessimists\u2019 won't do one iota of good except perhaps to soothe the consciences of these responsible for this odious form of discrimination.W.A.Sullivan 4444 Sherbrooke street west WESTMOUNT H3Z 1E4 Mayor MacCallum scored for attitude on buses Sir: When I got into the detail of your article in last week's EXAMINER and the comments of Mayor MacCallum, I must say I was shocked.Does he think he is still the mayor, elected by the citizens, or is he lobbying for a different job?& First, I would like to say as a bus user that the No.105 bus on Sherbrooke street was always full, not only with West- mounters but people travelling through, bringing life and business to Westmount and, therefore, dollars into the coffers of the city.The so-badly needed buses on St.Catherine street brought many people to work, schools and hospitals, also for the benefit of Westmount.The No.66 buses on the hills of West- mount are almost non-existent, leaving those heavy-burdened taxpayers without an essential service.Is there nobody active left anymore in city hall whom we can trust with our affairs?We citizens have put a lot of effort into this THIS SIGN.bus problem and it is very discouraging to see no strong support.As Ald.Lloyd mentioned in the last city council meeting, he wishes to continue in city hall with \"quiet diplomacy.\u2019 Who the Hell understands the meaning of that here in Quebec?We need action and help in many problems arising now, and we would like to see city hall with more open ears and listening to the so few people standing up for so many others in concern for a more managed life in this community \u2014 without being called a communist, cried out by people who do not know what communism is.Dirkje Christiane van Renesse van Duivenbode 4215 de Maisonneuve blvd.west WESTMOUNT H3Z 1K5 Aimers wants contenders to state monarchy stance Sir: It is evident from the current leadership race of the Progressive Conservative Party, and from the Prime Minister's stated intention not to lead the Liberal Party in another election, that Canadians face a new generation of political leadership who will, for good or ill, guide our Dominion's fortunes through the 1980s and beyond.A central question which must be put to all contenders for office, and specially to the leaders of parties, is as to their stance on maintaining the constitutional monarchy, that pillar of Canadian democracy on which rests so much of what is just and decent and traditional about our country.Rejecting the monarchial minimalism of the past decades, which has seen an often subtle erosion in both the substantive powers and symbolic presence of the Crown in Canada, the Monarchist League of Canada has prepared a manifesto, listing eight reasonable demands which, we believe, Canadian loyalists should make of their public officials with respect to the monarchy.For instance, we want the Canadian citizenship act to be amended to remove any doubt that the members of our royal family are indeed Canadians; we wish the status of God Save the Queen as royal anthem to be enshrined by statute, and we wish to see the proud, indigenous name \u201cDominion Day\u2019 restored as our national holiday, rejecting the sleepy duplicity by which \u2018Canada Day\u2019 was imposed upon us.Readers who might wish to obtain one or more copies of this manifesto for their own consideration and, hopefully, for passing on to their provincial and federal legislators, should write to the Monarchist League of Canada, 2 Wedgewood Crescent, Ottawa K1B 4B4.We must act now to assure the future of institutions which we have too often tended to take for granted.John L.Aimers Dominion Chairman & Founder Monarchist League of Canada 400 South Drive

three centres \u2014 Ville Marie, the French Social Service Centre and the Jewish Family Social Service Centre,\u201d Mr.Walker says.\u201cVille Marie was anticipating a provincial budget reduction.However, the complicating factor is that the Regional Council of Health and Social Services of a Metro Montreal wishes to use the socio-economic indicator according to education and income, with the weighting factor of one to three, which means that instead of reducing the budget by $180,000 the use of the indicator will force Ville Marie to cut its budget by $250,000.\u2018Negative reaction\u2019 \u201cVille Marie's first reaction to this has been extremely negative.We have stated that we want a study done to look at the indicator.The study is under way yet the Regional Council continues to want to use this indicator to deal with the provincial budget cuts.\u201cVille Marie's position will be decided at the next board meeting May 31.\u201d Ville Marie, he says, is concerned about the socio-economic indicator, which means that the Regional Council is using education and income as two indices for determining the need for specialized services.\u201cVille Marie has stated that these two indices alone are too limited in determining the need for our services \u2014 youth protection, school social services, adoption services, etc.\u2019 Mr.Walker says.\u201cWe have tabled our position with the Regional Council requesting that before application of this indicator to budgeting a study be conducted by the Regional Council to look at what impact the indicator will have on services to the population.\u201d If the Regional Council continues to use this indicator, Mr.Walker says, then social protection dollars will be transferred from the two zones that Ville Marie is responsible for, notably the Lakeshore general district and the Montreal general district.Higher income \u201cThese two areas have a higher education and income level than camp ouareau 100 girls 7-15

first real plunge is due at 9 am tomorrow morning when the pool opens for the first time this year.The parks and recreation department announced the opening yesterday.the rest of the zones that the French centre is responsible for.Therefore, the way the Regional Council wishes to pursue this matter is to use a weighting factor which means that in the two zones we responsible for the budget reallocation will be given a weighting of one and more disadvantaged zones will be given a weighting of three.\u201cIn terms of dollars, for every one dollar we receive for services provided, the French Social Service Centre will receive $3 to provide the same services.\" Ville Marie is doing a study of its clientele with a view to coming up with some recommendations that may influence the use of this indication.The results of this study will be presented to the Regional Council on June 15.Ford broken Damage was reported at $100 when a car window was broken Saturday in the garage of the

WESTMOUNT EX AMINER'S chief reporter, Laureen Sweeney, again this week was denied her usual interviews with fire officers at the brigade headquarters on Stanton street.The ban imposed by Chief Edward Martell five weeks ago has become an issue which openly has split city council.Mrs.Sweeney Tuesday morning called as usual at the fire department and was simply handed by the office clerk a copy of the fire log carried regularly on page 3.When she asked to see Mr Martell, he appeared in the hallway without greeting.Mrs.Sweeney asked him if the log had been updated, since the last fire call on the list was dated Monday night.Mr.Martell went away to the platoon chiefs\u2019 office and returned with a handful of fire reports.No, he said, there had been no subsequent calls.She also asked him if one incident on the log had been a fire in a dwelling.He read through the report and replied that it had been only for \u201cburnt toast.\u201d He then turned and went back into the same office.Since the ban he has said he would discuss the reports over the phone only.THE EXAMINER's position is that news cannot be fully and accurately obtained on a regular basis in that manner, particularly without access to original sources.Now illegal not to have detectors All dwellings in Westmount must have been equipped with smoke detectors by yesterday, according to municipal by-law.The city\u2019s smoke detector legislation \u2014 passed six months ago \u2014 came into effect May 25, meaning that owners of all dwellings not so equipped are subject to fines not exceeding $300.If the infraction continues, it becomes a separate offence day by day.Smoke detectors are now mandatory on each storey of a dwelling and outside every area of sleeping quarters.In the average Westmount house, this would mean at least three of the devices should be installed \u2014 in the basement, on the ground floor and the second storey.The law requires that the alarm be audible in every bedroom when the door is closed.In cases where rooms or dwellings are rented, the building owner is responsible for the installation of smoke detectors and the occupant for maintenance.A check by THE EXAMINER shows that although many apartment buildings have installed the devices some owners have yet to comply with the new law.May 26, 1983 No.2\u2019s firebox is used again Westmount firemen received a call on the firebox of station No.2 at Victoria avenue and The Boulevard Saturday when a car caught fire nearby.On arrival, however, the car was found to be in Montreal.Another car fire Feb.22 resulted in a sign being mounted on the station two weeks ago instructing citizens to pull the alarm in case of fire emergency, since firefighters no longer are stationed at the firehall.Last week, the new sign was joined by a red light denoting the fire callbox, following publication of a picture in THE EXAMINER of a special light on the Town of Mount Royal fire station.Intruder can\u2019t get into offices Nothing was stolen but $75 damage was reported when someone broke into the office building at 4333 St.Catherine street last week, police said.The door was forced open, causing damage to the framework.The incident took place over the weekend and was not discovered until 8 am on the Monday.Another office building was entered over the same period, this one through a window at 4823 Sherbrooke street.Police said the intruder didn\u2019t seem to be able to get into individual offices.Damage to the window was estimated at $100.Greene action committee formed, city promises aid An action committee for the general development of the Greene avenue area was formed at a special meeting last Thursday supported by promises of city cooperation from a Westmount alderman.Ald.Brian Gallery, the city\u2019s commissioner of services, told some 20 interested merchants that the city would not help them financially, but would provide certain amenities for the area.\u201cOur job is to light it and keep it clean, which is maybe where we have fallen down, but we cannot help in terms of direct subsidies or tax relief,\u201d he said.Those assembled for the meeting at the Old Post Office generally comprised the original By LAUREEN SWEENEY ad hoc committee which prepared the presentation to city council May 16 for the development of Greene (see story last week).They formalized a permanent committee to carry through the proposals in the presentation, naming Tom von Eicken as chairman.Not only merchants The committee includes not only merchants from Greene and St.Catherine street, but also representatives of property owners, tenants and other interested parties.It also includes a member of the Westmount Square merchants\u2019 association and agreed to name a Mutual aid fire system accidentally claims life The automatic mutual aid fire system, which was designed to help save lives, Tuesday night accidentally claimed its first life.The death of a man occurred when Hampstead's mutual aid pumper collided with a car while en route to a code-three \u201cautomatic\u201d call to Outremont, which was cancelled moments later.The accident Wednesday night also sent one firefighter to St.Mary's Hospital and involved two other cars, police said.The automatic response system, which began Nov.1 on a trial basis in Westmount and its five mutual aid partner cities, dispatches additional fire departments before it has ascertained whether or not the extra assistance is needed.It was understood at implementation of the system that fire officials had been in favor of \u201cautomatic\u201d crews starting out at a regular speed since the vast majority of the calls turn out to be unnecessary.Sirens preferred City managers, however, had preferred that the equipment proceed on an emergency basis with flashing lights and sirens (see story Oct.28, 1982).The Hampstead fire truck had been proceeding through a red light at the intersection of Côte des Neiges and Côte St.Catherine roads when the collision took place at 11:50 pm, police said.Town of Mount Royal crews also were dispatched to the call, which was for burnt food on a stove in a commercial establishment at 917 McEachran avenue.The victim, Emile Qintal, 77, was a journalist for La Presse, police said.\u201cI hope they don't panic over this accident,\u201d said a fire official from Outremont, who said that although a great many of the calls Don't give up chipped glassware!

Appraisal, Liquidation and Restoration Centre 368 Victoria Avenue, Westmount 487-4898 Member International Society of Appraisers Monday-Friday Saturday do turn out to be false, the system was worth retaining in the event of a real emergency.saves big bird You never know what will turn up next in Westmount when you're a public safety officer.Chances are Robert Stringer didn\u2019t exactly anticipate having to rescue a pigeon when he started work last Thursday.It was shortly before 10 am, however, when he got the call.A big bird was stuck in a window at a house on Victoria avenue, in the 500 block.When he arrived on the scene, he discovered the big bird was, in fact, a pigeon that had become trapped between an inner and outer bathroom window.He was able to open the outside window and get his hand inside.But the bird became vicious and he had to put on a glove.The officer reported he still couldn't understand how the bird could have become wedged inside, since the outer window had been open only inches.ANTIQUE CLOCKS $ REPAIRED AND BOUGHT Aaron Wohl GP 188-3017 representation to attend meetings of that body.The Greene avenue Action Committee will meet informally Thursdays at 9 am at the Old Post Office.Ald.Gallery told the group that the city\u2019s director of services, Bruce St.Louis, would be their contact in the city.The city, for its part, would start right away to paint the unpainted wooden fence around the parking lot at St.Catherine street and Greene, he said.It would be painted in the same color as the city sign posts in an effort to help make the area more attractive.The city would also try to find some additional benches.\u2018Courtesy cop\u2019 Ald.Gallery said there would be no problem concerning the idea of a \u2018\u2018courtesy cop\u2019' which the action committee suggested hiring to drop coins in expired parking meters to provide periods of grace to shoppers.Neither would the city object to the occasional closure of the street for a day's promotion if the majority of merchants wanted it.As for the city cleaning up the back lanes, he suggested that the storekeepers themselves might be \u201ca little messy.\u201d Clean own back yard \u201cThe city isn't going to clean up your back yard,\u201d he said.He did feel that complaints about lighting would be looked into, the nature of which drew concern from one merchant.\u201cAs long as you don't make it like St.Catherine street,\u201d she exclaimed, pointing in the direction of Montreal.\u201cDon't worry,\u201d Mr.Gallery assured her.\u201cWe don\u2019t have the money like Montreal!\u201d \u201cThey don't either,\u201d someone quipped.Among the members of the newly formed committee are: Mr.von Eicken, president; Judy Mappin, treasurer; Ernie Butler, marketing; David Cameron, membership liaison; Walter Nobes, Westmount Square representative, and Tom Alevisatos, representing merchants in the north end of Greene avenue.2nd prize $1,000 CASH 3rdprize $500 CASH TICKET PRICE ONLY £23 THE ROTARY CLUB OF WESTMOUNT \"Holiday of a Lifetime\u201d\" Draw OVER $10,000 IN PRIZES!
