By LAUREEN SWEENEY Proposep changes in the Public Security Unit were announced yesterday by city officials following a morning-long meeting between public safety officers and the city\u2019s director general, Frank Davis.Lieutenant Walter Richardson, the second-in- command, would be moved from shift duty to day operations and two shift-supervisor vacancies would be Centraide donations roll in filled immediately on an acting basis.This would ensure \u201cproper coverage\u2019 at all times, Mr.Davis said.The immediate changes in supervisor conditions resulted in the withdrawal of the resignation tendered Monday by Lieut.Richardson.\u201cI'm delighted that all concerned met and could work out their difficulties,\u201d Ald.Paul Fortin told THE EXAMINER.The city's commissioner of public security said city officials were working with MUC police to define the jurisdiction of the unit and improve working relations with policz \u2018Uneasiness\u2019 He said that unclear jurisdictions coupled with an \u201cinternal uneasiness\u2019 in the unit had resulted in a petition to city council by public safety officers two months ago and the subsequent resignation this week of Lieut.Walter Richardson.\u201cI have been aware of the situation and its resolution is a top priority of the council,\u201d Ald.Fortin said.The petition asked the council to review the organization and operation of the Public Security Unit.Following the requests of public safety officers, he said, Police give 600 tickets on Cedar More than 600 speeding tickets were issued by police during three weeks in September on Cedar avenue near Mount Pleasant avenue, police report.The crackdown by MUC police came following complaints of cars exceeding the 30-kilometre-per- hour speed limit on Cedar.Radar cars have kept up the surveillance this month as well, issuing as many as 50 tickets some days, according to Director John Dalzell of local MUC station 23.The tally of tickets given out

come to Westmount next month to celebrate the 70th anniversary of one of Westmount\u2019s military units, the Royal Montreal Regiment.For the last 59 years, the RMR\u2019s armory has been located at 4625 St.Catherine street.On Nov.9, 10 and 11, the building will be the central location of a number of social and military gatherings to celebrate the anniversary.Along with present members of the militia unit, members of the RMR's affiliated cadet corps and Royal Canadian Legion will take part.Today, the RMR does not have the military presence it once had in Westmount, but it still provides a training ground for Canadian Armed Forces militia.Regimental Sergeant Major Ed Watkins, a retired member of the RMR, says that despite a lower profile, the unit now trains soldiers better than it has for years.\u2018Elevated standards\u2019 \u201cThe elevated standards are now closer to those for the regular service, says Mr.Watkins, noting that those in the RMR now are \u2018better equipped and much sharper\u2019 than in past years.\u201cHOW COME YOU KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT fH?\" \u201cINDEX \u201cThe unit now has new and bet- RIBLIO gERV-FER HOTEL DE QUEREC FQ Sunny days with frosty mornings

month of October is usually the fulcrum between summer and winter.The time to put away our summer tools and toys and prepare for cooler temperatures.The autumn winds and rains bring down the leaves from the trees and the problem of removing them becomes the municipality's responsibility.Leaves raked onto the streets and sidewalks create a hazard to motorists and pedestrians, so your cooperation is sought in placing the leaves in bags or piles behind the sidewalks ; where they may be removed by the ZH city\u2019s equipment.Any branches, bushes, etc.should be bundled and piled separately.Now is also the time to protect any shrubs or bushes which could be damaged by snow removal or salt.In the interest of economy and expedience, it is the policy of the city to cast snow behind the sidewalks in certain areas.Although the removal crews do not intentionally cast snow on private property, some overspill does occasionally occur.This policy is currently being reviewed.We intend to experiment this fall with some neutralizing agents to prevent or reduce lawn damage.As you may appreciate, snow removal is an expensive operation, particularly with our steep hills and heavily-travelled arterial streets.It is therefore necessary to employ cost saving methods wherever possible.This year, it is our intention to dispose of some of our snow from the Pont de la Concorde and although this dump site will not permit as fast a removal time as previous years, it is anticipated that it will result in a considerable savings.Residents are also requested to remind their snow removal contractors that they should not block streets nor sidewalks but snow can be spread on the windrow prepared by city plows for removal on your side of the street.Octobre marque en général la transition de l'été à l\u2019hiver.C\u2019est le moment de ranger ses outils de jardinage et les jouets d'été et de se préparer au froid qui ne saurait tarder.Les vents et les pluies d'automne dégarnissent les arbres; il appartient alors à la Ville d\u2019enlever les feuilles qui jonchent le sol.Les feuilles râtelées et déposées sur la chaussée et le trottoir constituent un danger pour les automobilistes et les piétons; nous comptons sur votre collaboration et vous demandons de bien vouloir placer les feuilles dans des sacs ou encore de les empiler au fond du trottoir pour que les équipes de la Ville puissent les retirer avec un matériel spécial.Les branchages et les buissons doivent être assemblés en fagots et empilés à part.C'est aussi le moment de protéger les arbustes et les buissons contre les méfaits du déneigement ou de l\u2019épandage de sel.Pour des raisons d'économie et d'efficacité, la Ville a comme politique de projeter la neige au fond du trottoir à certains endroits.Bien que les équipes de déneigement ne projettent pas volontairement la neige sur la propriété privée, il arrive que cela se produise.Cette politique est en ce moment en voie de révision.Cet automne, nous nous proposons de faire l'expérience de certains agents neutralisateurs afin d\u2019éliminer ou de réduire les dommages causés aux pelouses.Vous n'êtes pas sans savoir que le déneigement est une opération très coûteuse, surtout à cause des collines escarpées et des artères à forte circulation qui caractérisent notre ville.Cette situation nous oblige à recourir dans la mesure du possible à des méthodes susceptibles de réduire nos dépenses.Cette année nous nous proposons de déverser une partie de la neige du pont de la Concorde; bien que ce site de déversement ne favorise pas un déneigement aussi rapide que par les années passées, nous prévoyons réaliser des économies intéressantes en l'utilisant.Nous prions les résidents de bien vouloir rappeler à leurs entrepreneurs en déneigement qu'ils ne doivent pas obstruer la chaussée ou le trottoir; cependant, la neige peut être déposée sur le bourrelet formé de votre côté de la rue par les chasse-neige de la Ville pour être enlevée par la suite.Next Scheduled City Council Meeting Monday, Nov.5, 8 pm.Regular monthly meeting.Date de la prochaine séance du conseil municipal Le lundi 5ième novembre à 20h00.Séance mensuelle

discuss areas of concern.Step forward Yesterday's meeting between the public safety officers and management was seen by Ald.Fortin as a step toward improved communications.The city's director general, Frank Davis, said it was the first of such meetings planned to provide the PSOs with the opportunity to communicate with city management and for the city to gain input from the men.Among the items contained in the petition was the appointment of one of the officers as liaison with MUC police.Public safety officers also asked for more efficient use of manpower, increased use of foot patrols and CPR training.They also felt the present work system needed updating to \u201c1984 standards.\u2019 Public safety officers currently use an old police shift schedule of six days on, two off.HOTEL DE

detectors prove their worth in two incidents By LAUREEN SWEENEY Two lives probably were saved here last week and a major fire averted in two separate incidents because smoke detectors had been maintained, fire officials report.Both incidents occurred less than 24 hours after last week's EXAMINER appeared carrying a message from the fire department urging citizens to maintain their detectors.\u201cThese are good examples of our message,\u201d explained West- mount's acting fire chief William Timmons.He also praised efforts by managers at Westmount Square during Fire Prevention Week last week who distributed photocopies of THE EXAMINER'S smoke detector story to every apartment.The story launched the West- mount Fire Brigade\u2019s adoption of an Oregon smoke detector program to \u2018\u2018Make Tuesday detector test day.\u201d The two fire incidents discovered here last week through smoke detectors are detailed in separate stories.Filled with smoke Chief Timmons said a smoke detector at 3241 St.Antoine street Chicken legs left on stove cause smoke Firefighters found smoke issuing from the front door of a house at 648 Belmont avenue last Thursday after neighbors heard a smoke alarm ringing.Cause of the smoke turned out to be chicken legs left cooking on the stove, fire officials said.No one was at home at the time, about 5:46 pm.A 1%-inch line was laid but not used.The house was entered through an unlocked door and the stove turned off.The pot was taken off the stove and the house ventilated.\u201cA fair amount of smoke\u2019 had filled the home, fire officials said.Residents arrived home while firefighters were at the scene and were advised to buy new smoke detector batteries.Bicycle gone A bicycle was reported stolen in Westmount Park near the children's library Sunday, according to Public Security Unit officials.Friday at 4:22 am had awakened sleeping residents whose flat was filled with smoke from a cushion fire.\u201cWe feel the lives of the two people in that home were saved by their detector.\u201d The previous evening, a smoke detector had alerted neighbors to burning food at 648 Belmont Lamp ignites cushion in third-storey flat Two Westmount residents escaped a smoke-filled flat in the early hours of Friday morning after a small reading lamp ignited a cushion, fire officials said.The fire at 3241 St.Antoine street was detected by Public Security officers who smelled smoke and heard a smoke detector ringing.Damage was estimated at $250.Saved lives Fire officials said a smoke detector probably saved the lives of the occupants.The smell of smoke first attracted the attention of Public Safety Officer Raffaele Barba at 4:22 am.He was joined by Sgt.Richard McEnroe and PSO Bob Stringer who reported hearing an alarm ringing.They saw smoke coming from the door of the triplex and called the fire department.JEWELLERY REPAIRS ADVICE AND ESTIMATES FOR ALL REPAIRS AND RESTORATION: Arabesque Antique and Estate Jewellery

LITT] CIRCUL ATOR Pa We Say A vacancy to fill DESPITE the fun-making of our cartoon, opposite, this week, we think it is eminently good sense for Ald.lan McPherson to delay the formality of his resignation from city council, to avoid an election over the Christmas period.At the same time the candidacy of Mr.Allen Nutik to fill the vacancy, whenever it officially opens, also is to be welcomed.Citizens need not be reminded that Mr.Nutik ran in the general election a year ago for the mayoralty and he made a respectable showing against His Worship Brian Gallery.It was generally felt then that his chances were not good; he reached for the top municipal office without prior experience on council, whereas Mr.Gallery was vitally needed to provide leadership and continuity for an otherwise totally new and enlarged group of solons.That in no way detracts from the undeniable talents and deep interests in West- mount's affairs of Mr.Nutik.He now has an extended history of attendance at city council meetings as a citizen and observer.While his question-period interventions were seldom appreciated by the previous council, during the present administration his inquiries and his comments have been informed, thought- out and constructive on a broad range of city affairs.If he had chosen to run for an aldermanic seat last November, he already might have been on council.We thought then that it was a pity that he had not taken that course.There is no one else on the scene with the expressed keenness for the job or, for that matter, better qualified by interest shown and by expressed ideas to fill the upcoming vacancy.While contests are to be desired because they bring people and issues to the fore, in the present circumstances an acclamation would be appropriate.If nothing else, it would save the city the cost of mounting an election and the distraction it will pose for the administration from other, more pressing matters.It should be noted that here again we have an example of how the provincial meddlers have put us, and all the municipalities of Quebec, into a straitjacket of rules and regulations regarding municipal voting.Witness the stratagem which has had to be adopted to avoid a Christ-time election, and all the fussy requirements laid down to replace a council member.Just what is it about bureaucrats which makes it impossible for them to keep their hands off the detailed affairs of municipal governments?Preserve Public Security RUMBLINGS reaching the public from the Public Security Unit while disquieting should not raise concern for this second- line of defence (or is it Westmount's first line?) of good order locally.Morale among the men remains high, possibly because they are a conscientious, hard-working and dedicated force hand-picked by the director, Mr.Sidney Ashford, for those very qualities.There is none more qualified than the second in command, Mr.Walter Richardson \u2014 whose resignation tendered to the city this week has brought present problems to the fore.Those problems are essentially of internal communications, a classic cause of unwitting disruption or discord in any organization.The effects tend to be magnified in a body which by its nature must be well structured if shifts, duties and broad responsibilities are to be clearly understood and carried out.From the public side there is little or no complaint about the unit.It was an idea having broad support in the face of the shortcomings of MUC police integration and its effect on the quality of service Westmounters had both expected and demanded of their own former police force.The present issue is muddied by on-going perceived rivalry between the police and the unit.Which is short-sighted: the regular constabulary should welcome the additional ears and eyes providing effective surveillance of the territory through the unit's night and day patrols.Much of the work of the unit happens to be regarded by policemen as too petty or beneath their dignity, despite the fact that these things are the nitty-gritty of good local policing.The police need reminding that it is a tenet of theirs that they always welcome public alertness and assistance.They should welcome all the more, then, a unit organized and paid for by the local government to provide those very things.There is a responsibility on the city\u2019s side, too, to make its determination clear that the Pubilc Security Unit is regarded by Proportional misrepresentation POLITICIANS of the Parti Québecois persuasion have been heating up their preoccupation with what they call electoral reform and which we call gerrymandering in their effort to return to power, an eventuality otherwise not too certain as their mandate nears its end.The buzz-words they use are \u2018proportional representation\u201d and they are fond of attempting to give them legitimacy by citing some places in the world where the so-called system is used.It is not so much a system as a slick, scientific-sounding form of swindle whereby citizen-voters have taken away from them the right to elect whom they wish to represent them \u2014 the very foundation of the free democratic system of government \u2014 and are presented instead with something else.The politicians of the day never should be permitted by those they represent to tamper with the method of representation.Certainly not without consultation with the electorate and receiving a clear mandate for any change.It should be regarded by all citizens as outrageous if, as we suspect from the current kite-flying talk that it may be its intention, the PQ government should use its tenuous control of the National Assembly to change the electoral rules prior to the next election.The entire questionable issue is prompted by the experience of the party in its earlier days when it found it had scant representation in the legislature despite having what it regarded as a proportionately greater share of the (two more hollow buzz-words) \u201c\u2018popular vote.\u201d In other words, they are saying that parties should be represented in the house in proportion to the total votes allegedly cast in the province for each party.Parliamentary rule, by tradition and practice, is determined by control of the house and not by some perceived control of the electorate.The only legitimate way for a party to form a government is to see to it on the hustings, if it can, that members of its own party (or of other parties or independents pledged to support it) are elected.The other fundamental flaw in any post- polling fiddling is that there are bound to be members ending up in the parliament who have no mandate from or responsibility to the electorate.They would hold seats alongside the legitimate representatives of the people, owing their allegiance only to the party.Parliament was fought for and won for the express purpose of representing people, not parties.One of the privileges evolved from the secret ballot and universal suffrage is that every qualified voter is free to vote as he or she sees fit, on the basis of the qualifications or the party affiliation, or both, of the candidate.Once the people have spoken in that manner, any reshuffling of the results is simply sub- may have been some lack of firmness in this respect, resulting in the present personnel difficulty.Both Dir.Ashford and his deputy, Lt.Richardson, were highly respected members of the old Westmount Police force and both know the qualities expected of them.Times have changed and some of the old authoritarian methods no longer work; rather, they become counter-productive.Hence the need for more effective, two-way communication between officers and between officers and men.If somehow there has been a failure in this regard, then it is urgent that steps be taken for correction.The city can ill afford to lose the services and leadership of Lt.Richardson.version of the process.While there has been some commentary in regional and national media on the idea of so-called proportional representation, we have failed to note any unequivocal condemnation of it.This may be because the dailies, the magazines and the broadcast people have become sensitized to the idea that politics is what takes place in capital cities and with political parties.They have lost sight of the fundamental fact that it has everything to do with direct, local representation of citizens for the purpose of self-government.As a local community newspaper we like to think we live more constantly closer to the truth of the matter.It is one reason we, and many other weeklies, regularly carry columns by our local representatives and report the activities, scant as they unfortunately are, of constitue organizations.To us, even the most rei backbencher who may happen to represent us is vastly more important than the ministers \u2014 simply because the member is our elected representative.Even the premier or prime minister of the day, let alone a party in power, has no direct mandate from us, except through our member of the assembly.Mr.Richard French is our MNA.He represents this constituency at Quebec.No one else can speak for Westmount in the National Assembly until we should replace him \u2014 at the polls.We would take an extremely dim view of any party which tampered with this fundamental right, whether in the name of reform or, more likely, as a high- sounding means of hanging onto the power and perks of office by distorting the pattern of constituency by constituency representation.Hon.Doneld J.Johnston says.Arresting the juggernaut TONIGHT, I will be participating in a panel discussion at Victoria Hall together with Dr.Judy Vogel and Professor Eric Shragge on the subject, \u2018Canada and the Nuclear Arms Race.\u201d I accepted the sponsor's invitation with enthusiasm, not because I have great expertise to offer but simply to contribute whatever I can to this area drawing from my own experience in public life.It is also a great opportunity to learn from others and become better equipped for a role in Parliament.Arresting the nuclear juggernaut will not happen at the level of the military; the debate must be carried on between political leaders sensitive to the concerns of the citizenry and open to their ideas.Rich in

wonderful initiative of Eva Prager (Children for Peace), the work of McGill's Don Bates and, just a few days ago, the appointment of Ann Gertler as an advisor to the Canadian delegation for the 39th United Nations General Assembly, to name but a few.Canada is not a nuclear power.Our role must be played from a position of moral authority, credibility and trust vis-à-vis the members of the nuclear club.How best to do that is where we must focus our efforts and, I hope, the dialogue at tonight's panel.1 Say!

visited a house of ill-fame.Without intending the analogy to be complete \u2014 given the implications it might have for public esteem for my present line of work \u2014 that is the feeling one got from last week's parliamentary hearings on reform of the electoral system.At the bar were three commissioners who had written a report recommending a radical reform of the electoral system in the direction of proportional representation.Tney had consulted those who could be attracted to come out to the series of public meetings they held across the province.They had polled the population, albeit on a subject about which few are either concerned or informed.They had taken a trip to Europe to study various electoral systems in force there.The result, however, was a recommendation that only a theorist could love.It was a recommendation that fundamentally The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, October 18, 1984 - 5 Joan Rothman says.Bill 40 update THE school boards of Quebec received last month a document from the Hon.Yves Bérubé, minister of education, entitled \u201cGuidelines for the re-writing of Bill 40.\u201d This is the bill that is designed to restructure Quebec's educational system by abolishing its confessional structure (Protestant and Catholic).The Bill is to be re-written and deposited soon after the National Assembly meets this week.The guidelines state that all of Quebec will be divided into French or English school commissions.English school commissions would be mandated to educate only those students who have the right to an English education under Bill 101.Non-confessional?The guidelines state that these linguistic school commissions will be non- confessional.The government is very concerned about the constitutionality of such a change and for this reason it has proposed that the confessional school commissions (or boards) of Montreal and Quebec City established before 1867 be maintained.However, these four school commissions are to be reduced to the territories they held in 1867.This piece of sophistry will reduce the Protestant School Board of Greater Mon- misunderstood the life, behavior, and incentives of political man or woman.It was a recommendation that fundamentally misunderstood how political parties work, as well as how parliaments and parliamentarians operate.Did the report of the representation com- Continued on next page - treal territory from an area that covers most of the Island of Montreal to one in which it has virtually no students residing and one school, our Fine Arts Core School, housed in the old High School of Montreal on University street.The ministry of education again betrays its anxiety over the issue of confessionality by giving each school the right to apply for a Protestant or a Catholic status.Mr.Bérubé expects the newly elected commissioners (to be elected next year in April 1985) to freeze the confessional status of all schools in the province on July 1, 1986.From the 1986-89 school year the parents in each school (who it is assumed will be either English- or French-speaking, and also a mixture of Protestant, Catholic and other) presumably will be expected to fight it out, and one religious group finally will triumph to determine the religious status of the school.One can plainly see that the people who wrote this nonsense are struggling very hard with the constitutional guarantees given to confessional education in Lower Canada in 1867.The Protestant Committee of the Superior Council of Education has questioned the need for this sweeping ad- ministrational reform, specially during a time of severe economic distress and labor unrest.What is overriding value?The council also has asked a question the government never has answered: Why does language have to be the overriding value to which all other values must be subordinated in bringing pupils together in the same school?And just who is it, in any case, that is clamoring for the widespread change on the Island of Montreal that the ministry is planning to bring about?Is language really the best basis upon which to divide children for the purpose of education?As an alternative to imposing its will, perhaps the government should allow existing local boards working with their communities to continue to respond to the needs of the children and parents they serve.Ce : Tye Was frat Esnments Forty-five Years Ago October 19, 1939 \u201cWestmount, traditionally Conservative for the past forty years, must choose between an Independent, Liberal or Union Nationale candidate to represent its electorate in Quebec in the forthcoming Provincial elections.When nominations closed at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon no Conservative candidate had deposited nomination papers with Nominating Officer Pud- dicombe.In the running were Liberal Candidate G.Gordon Hyde, K.C., Independent Hon.Gilbert Layton and Union Nationale standard bearer Charles Petrie.The West- mount Conservative Association, for the first time in its history, failed to take any part in the election proceedings.The association felt that with the withdrawal of W.R.Bulloch, and the desire of Hon.Gilbert Layton to enter the elections as an Independent, its best move was to remain out of the conflict altogether.\u201d Thirty-five Years Ago October 14, 1949 \u201cTomorrow afternoon, Proctor Academy, a well-known boys\u2019 school in Andover, New Hampshire, will pay their first visit to Westmount High School.It is hoped by students and school officials alike that this will be the beginning of an annual affair.School plans call for a special dance Saturday night in the High School to entertain the visitors and on Sunday they will be shown the various sights around our metropolis.Monday afternoon, Westmount High School students will be given a half holiday so that they may take in the \u2018Big Game\u2019 at the Westmount Athletic Grounds when Proctor and Westmount

sub-amendments to a bylaw broadening the role of the architectural commission into the realm of planning, the rare Westmount exercise of municipal parliamentarianism was spirited, thoughtful and amicable.The by-law subsequently was passed, little but in some sense significantly altered.The nine-itém agenda, which ordinarily would have been covered in less than 10 minutes .took one hour and

the Westmount shipping magnate Laurence Pathy, of the CSL Group Inc, Canada's largest privately held transportation firm, perhaps in that order.Many high-placed Liberals want him to be the next prime minister, but when asked if he wanted to be, Mr.Martin replied: \u201cI think what I really want is to do a good job at what I am doing as president of CSL.\" He added that he gets a thrill from running a $500-million (sales) conglomerate consisting of Montreal's Canada Steamship Lines Inc., Toronto's Kingsway Group, Montreal's Voyageur Enterprises Ltd., Col- lingwood's (Ont.) Canadian Shipbuilding & Engineering Ltd., and Concord\u2019s (Ont.) SSF Transport.Why didn't he run for the Liberal leadership?\u201cWhen I bought my company with virtually every cent I could scare up three years ago | made a number of commitments, Mr.Martin replied.\u2018One of those commitments was that I would stay where I was for a minimum of five years and the time period had not elapsed.In addition, I really like what | am doing.\u201d Not good for system Mr.Martin thinks that the Conservative win was too great a victory.\u2018Such a majority is really not good for the democratic system,\u201d he said.\u2018I hope the Conservatives are able to use this tremendous mandate to take the kind of decisions which are required if Canada is to be able to navigate in what are really very treacherous economic waters.\" Mr.Martin said he liked Brian Mulroney very much but he was not enamored of the philosophical basis that is at the root of the Conservative party.\u2018\u2018I believe that the new prime minister will have a very tough time fusing a sense of compassion or equity into his party,\u2019 he said.Is he ever going to run as an MP?\u201cI honestly don't know,\" he replied.A candid, direct, modest man of 46, Mr.Martin is said to be too outspoken to be a politician.He has a guileless, boyish, mobile face that usually is not photogenic.His smiles have a peculiar way of appearing as scowls.He is a six-footer, blue-eyed, with a slight touch of grey in his brown hair.He is fluently bilingual.Mr.Martin was interviewed in his clut- Continued from previous page mission help to advance the debate?Perhaps.By the time you read this, the prime minister will have revealed his own plans on electoral reform, for the nth time, in the inaugural speech.If we are making any progress, however, it wasn't evident last week.Most Liberals remain unconvinced of the need for change.The minister of energy.Yves Duhaime, believes we need a republican system.The MNA for Gouin, Jacques Rochefort, proposes a second ballot system, as in France.The MNA for Trois-Riviéres, Denis Vaugeois, would like to see the resurrection of a second chamber.So it goes.We are not at a point of emerging consensus, we are at a point of divergence.If Mr.Lévesque thinks he is going to be able to ram a major reform through the assembly.he has another think coming.Wheels taken Two wheels and hubcaps were stolen from a car parked Wednes- on blocks at 10 pm, minus the reportedly front wheels.cident here.Paul Martin jr.tered office on the sixth floor of the Canada Steamships building in Victoria Square.Worships father Martin worships his father, Paul Martin sr., the high commissioner to Great Britain from 1975 to 1980.He helped to organize his father\u2019s unsuccessful attempt at the Liberal Party leadership in 1968 which Pierre Trudeau won in a burst of Trudeaumania.He took the defeat a lot harder than Paul sr.\u2018My father retired to write his memoirs,\u201d Mr.Martin said.\u201cVolume 2 is expected to be out in September 1985.\" He inherits his wit and love of sports from his paternal grandfather, Philippe Martin, who worked in a lumber mill as a mill hand.Back to his job.\u201cWhat | enjoy most is building and fortunately the management team here are all builders,\u201d Mr.Martin said.He has the common touch with his 6,000 left the scene of an ac- Police said the car failed to stop after hitting another in the rear while westbound on Dorchester boulevard at Greene avenue.The car was followed by two RCMP agents who happened to at 8:07 am.EXAMINER photo by Rick Kerrigan employees.\u201cThe great thing about working for a transportation company is that you visibly can see the contribution you are making to your country,\u201d he said.\u2018I believe all the employees here feel that strongly and that's what sustains them on cold, windy, winter days when they are battling the elements, so I have both a tremendous affection and respect for them all.\u201d The company\u2019s export coal tonnage to Europe, Japan and Korea fluctuates between a million and a million and a half tons annually.\u201cWe are very proud of it because it was a trade that we pioneered and developed.\u201d Mr.Martin said.\u201cAI!

another service agency, the United Nations Children\u2019s Fund (UNICEF), Wednesday last week, Yolande Masella, a Westmount resident and president of UNICEF Canada, addressed Rotary\u2019s regular weekly luncheon meeting, speaking about her organization's goals and how they could be attained.\u201cWe are now seeing a new tragedy in the world due to the global economy,\u2019 explained Mrs.Masella.She noted that the recent economic decline forced many of the more prosperous nations to divert funds away from Third World aid toward their own economic problems.In Mrs.Masella\u2019s view, the greatest victims of this change were the children of underdeveloped countries.She said that 40,000 children in the Third World still die each day from the effects of malnutrition, disease and poor living conditions.\u201cFor every child that dies,\u201d added Mrs.Masella, \u2018\u2018another becomes disabled in mind and body.\u201d One of the programs currently being pursued by UNICEF is called the GOBI program.Its four areas of concentration \u2014 growth charts, oral rehydration therapy, breastfeeding and immunization \u2014 are designed to be inexpensive and simple ways for Third World mothers to improve their children's health.Immunization of interest The last of these programs, immunization, long has been an interest of Rotary, and Mrs.Masella emphasized this point.\u201cPerhaps one day, thanks to Rotarians like yourselves, polio will join smallpox as a thing of the past,\u201d she said, noting the $11 million Rotary International has contributed to Third World immunization programs.Despite such help, noted Mrs.Masella, less than 20 percent of children in underdeveloped countries have been immunized against diseases such as polio.Mrs.Masella said that although Rotary already has helped organizations such as hers, more could be done.She called on Rotarians to help inform the public about agencies such as UNICEF and to help raise social and political awareness to Third World problems.\u201cRotary is a formidable force,\u201d said Mrs.Masella.\u2018Few organizations can marshal the influence and motivation that your organization represents.\u201d Mrs.Masella was introduced by Etienne Glucksthal and thanked by William Kenwood.The club welcomed visiting Rotarians from France, Barbados, Ohio and Montreal.WINDOWS HOMES e OFFICES MONTREAL WINDOW

the third quarter of the year indicates that activity worth an estimated total of $2,835,266 was started in the city during that time.The total represents a 5.5 percent rise from the same quarter of last year and an 84-percent leap Lights timed for 40 kph Traffic lights on Sherbrooke street through Westmount are timed for motorists driving at 40 kilometres an hour, according to Public Security

Westmount Municipal Association plans to revive its nominating committee in order to find suitable candidates for the expected by-election in ward 1, directors of the association decided Monday evening during their regular monthly meeting in Victoria Hall.Directors discussed their involvement in an election to replace Alderman Ian McPherson, who is expected to resign from city council in coming weeks.Since WMA by-laws do not provide for a small, by-election nominating committee, the entire eight-ward, 40-member commit- see that served in fall elections last year is to be reconstituted.Although several directors commented that the procedure seemed \u201cunwieldy,\u201d WMA president James Wright remarked that aldermen not only represent an individual ward but serve the whole city.He looked positively on the involvement of citizens of all wards.Following the same procedures used in the last election, the committee will be responsible for finding one or more candidates suitable for election.The report of the nominating committee likely will be presented at a general meeting of WMA members in January.Salt damage to lawns among WMA complaints Salt-laden snow spread over city lawns by snow-removal crews last winter came up under during discussion of several different agenda items at the meeting of Westmount Municipal Association directors in Victoria Hall Monday evening.Dr.Hilary Bourne mentioned the poor condition of several trees in.Westmount may be due to ill- effects of melted salt snow.In discussion, dying grass on Westmount lawns also was attributed to salt run-off, Directors resolved to pursue the matter with the appropriate city officials.Other sore points in city affairs discussed during the meeting included parking meters which do not indicate the time remaining before expiry.Director John Johnston complained that parking meters on St.Catherine street recently had been installed down the middle of the sidewalk at Alexis Nihon Plaza, perhaps posing a hazard to pedestrians.Georges Hébert noted that a silver maple tree planted by the city near his home had sent roots across his property.He noted that the species was not recommended for city planting.James Wright, president of the association, wondered aloud what was being done about speeding in the city.Residents of Kensington avenue successfully petitioned the city for a reduction of the speed limit there to 30 kph, but he cited a lack of enforcement.000 ST.JAMES ST.W.(corner Hingston) Only 3 minutes from old location Qualified mechanics and body shop on

resignation was tabled at the last directors\u2019 meeting.Heather McFarland said a series of ward meetings, which had been planned for last spring but were postponed, now would be held in mid-November.Emms chosen Thelma Emms was chosen by the directors to accompany Alderman Sally Aitken to a meeting with the Montreal Urban Community Transit Commission regarding bus service.A revised membership fee schedule is to be presented at the next directors\u2019 meeting, Nov.12, by the executive.Park flasher is reported An alleged indecent exposure was reported to have occurred in

police report.The cards apparently were offered for sale at $50 each.Police initially were called to the scene Wednesday last week about 11:20 am after a complaint was made by the city to police director John Dalzell of station 23.A man and a woman were cautioned.Police were called back again Friday at 10:06 am.Charges are being laid under municipal by-laws against a 24-year-old Rosemount

the efficiency and economy of natural gas.Compare that to 28% who still rely on high-priced oil, and only 23% who use electricity.Why are so many Canadians turning to natural gas?Here are the facts: NATURAL GAS IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL MAJOR SOURCE OF ENERGY IN NORTH AMERICA No matter how you look at it, natural gas is the most economical way to heat your home: furthermore.there is every reason to believe that it will retain its competitive edge over the years to come: right here in this country.we have an abundant supply of natural gas.A quick glance at the comparison below will convince you that natural gas is the way to go: SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING DUAL SYSTEM Electricity/ NATURAL OIL ELECTRICITY oil GAS YEARLY HEATING BILL $965 $779 $807 $625 Based on a consumption of 2,837 litres (624 gallons) of oil at 34¢ per litre (31.54 per gallon).Oil figures based on a furnace operating at 65% efficiency: electricity on a system operating at 100% cfficiency.In a dual system (electricity/oil).80% of total energy needs are covered by electricity.Gas figures based on second generation equipment with an 80% efficiency performance.All figures based on costs as of September 1st, 1984 CONVERTING TO NATURAL GAS REQUIRES NO IMMEDIATE CASH OUTLAY The Canada Oil Substitution Program (COSP) offers generous grants to convert from oil to an alternate source of energy.Already 282.000 Canadians have taken advantage of this program to convert to natural gas.Gaz Métropolitain\u2019s financing plan gives you the convenience of covering the remaining cost of conversion (total price minus total grants) over a period of several months.However.the savings you enjoy from using gas will usually offset the cost of conversion on your monthly bills.**For comfort and economy.the choice is natural.\u2019 a comprehensive document on conversion to natural gas, is available free of charge from Gaz Métropolitain.Simply call the following number and ask that a copy be sent to your

next week's sale of raffle tickets to raise $1 million to equip the two major burn treatment centres in Quebec.The centres are near completion following last year's successful appeal in which Westmount firemen raised more than $7,000 toward the fund.The raffle tickets, which go on sale Monday at Westmount Square and Alexis Nihon Plaza at $2 each, carry prizes worth Paint removal starts fire on Metcalfe A fire broke out in wood behind the roof flashing at 340 Metcalfe avenue Saturday afternoon as old paint was being burned off, fire officials report.The fire caused a considerable amount of smoke and travelled along the exterior facade to the semi-detached house at civic number 338.Total amount of the fire damage was estimated at $2,000.It was the second such fire to occur accidentally in Westmount in two weeks.Firefighters were called to the scene at 3:26 pm and found smoke coming from the eaves.A 1%-inch line was laid at the front and a 2%-inch line to the roof via the aerial ladder.The false facade of the house was opened to check for extension of fire.The fire charred away deeply at one beam, said Fire Chief William Timmons.\u2018The fact that the house was so well built with supports confined the fire to the one beam.It didn\u2019t get enough air.\u201d Firemen remained at the scene until after 5:30 pm and a fire watch was maintained until 9 pm.Cote St.Luc covered at the fire station.$200,000 in gift certificates from The Bay.Members of the Westmount Firefighters\u2019 Association, who will be among 21,000 Quebec firemen selling the tickets, will man two booths here, one in West- mount Square, the other in Alexis Nihon Plaza.\u201cWe have had tremendous cooperation this year from both city officials and the shopping centres,\u201d said Fireman Hugh Clarke, one of the organizers.Booths will open Monday through Saturday at 8 am and will remain open Thursday and Friday nights.The Westmount firemen hope to sell close to 3,000 tickets.Each ticket also takes the form of a scratch card offering discounts at St.Hubert barbecue outlets, Shell gas stations and Rona hardware stores.Last year's province-wide campaign resulted in the initial set up of the first major burn centres in Quebec.Gas crews end street leak Gas crews were called to repair a leak in the street near 420 Wood avenue Saturday after firefighters detected a 60 percent reading inside the home.Fire officials said readings were obtained in the basement storage room as well as outside the house.Repairs were reported completed on Tuesday.Bathroom fire out on arrival A fire in a bathroom wastebasket had been put out on arrival of firemen Monday at 3 Westmount Square, fire officials reported.The smouldering wicker basket was moved outside.Mutual aid firemen from

proud regiment The 14th Canadian Battalion, designated \u201cThe Royal Montreal Regiment\u2019 by special warrant, was recruited in August 1914.The component officers and men came from these Montreal units of the Canadian Active Militia: the 1st Regiment, Canadian Grenadier Guards; the 3rd Regiment, Victoria Rifles of Canada; and the 65th Regiment, Carabiniers de Mont-Royal.The battalion was one of four in the 3rd Canadian Infantry Brigade which was commanded at the beginning of World War I by Col.R.E.W.Turner, VC, DSO.Most of the members of the regiment had their first experience of war conditions at Valcartier Camp and on Salisbury Plain.On formation, command of the Royal Montreal Regiment was assumed by Lt.Col.F.S.Meighen and the post of second-in- command went to Lt.Col.W.W.Burland.When the RMR arrived at Valcartier, they found the newly- established camp a shambles with little in the way of facilities.There were 33,000 men assembled in the area.Battalion takes shape As training and organization continued, the 14th Battalion began to take shape, and one of the officers who joined the battalion as medical officer was Capt.F.A.C.Scrimger, who later was to win the coveted Victoria Cross at Ypres.The regimental sergeant-major at this time was C.B.Price, who had relinquished a commission in the Victoria Rifles to go overseas with the 14th.Price volunteered to become a color sergeant to permit the appointment of J.M.Shephenson, a regular soldier with wide experience, to the post of RSM.When the strength was 46 officers and 1,097 other ranks, the battalion boarded the liner \u2018\u2019Alaunia\u2019\u2019 at Quebec City on Sept.25, and arrived at Plymouth in mid-October following an uneventful trans-Atlantic crossing.Salisbury Plain Then began the regiment\u2019s acquaintance with British mud, with special emphasis on the variety produced on Salisbury Plain.Training continued throughout the months of November, December and January on the Plain and the 14th crossed the channel to France in February aboard the \u201cAustralind,' a captured German cargo and cattle steamer.On Feb.24 \u2014 exactly six months after the battalion had left Montreal \u2014 arrangements were made for several platoons to undergo instruction in the front line, near Armentiéres.\" Early in April, the Regiment was moved to Ypres and withstood their first German attack on April 22 following a fierce artillery bombardment.During the ensuing days, the battalion was subjected to fierce enemy shelling and was forced to give ground.In this action, the qualities of a remarkable young soldier, Sergeant Dick Worrall, were noted.Worrall brought the regiment back to Montreal three years later as commanding officer, with the rank of lieutenant colonel.Late in April, the RMR was withdrawn behind the Yser Canal for rest, but they were back in the wind shift.Second battle for Ypres During the second battle for Ypres, Capt.Scrimger showed the outstanding heroism for which he later was awarded the Victoria Cross.When the brigade headquarters was blown to pieces and the ammunition dump set afire, he refused to abandon the wounded men he was tending.Despite the continual bombardment, he stayed with them and helped evacuate the wounded when the shelling subsided.With the withdrawal of the Canadian Division from the Ypres Salient, the 14th Battalion had an opportunity to recuperate, rest and refit.In the battle, the RMR had lost 69 officers and men killed and 150 wounded.On May 25, commissions were granted to CSM C.B.Price and Sgt.Dick Worrall.Bavarian troops.The battalion reached its first objective, reformed and moved ahead again.In the 14th, six officers were killed and three wounded.Casualties in the other ranks included 92 killed and 173 wounded.The battalion carried fully its share of the burden of holding the ridge throughout the summer of 1917.After participating in the battle for Hill 70, the high ground north of Lens, the 14th Battalion returned for the third time to the Ypres Salient.Passchendaele The Canadians had taken Vimy in the spring of 1917 and had taken Hill 70.Now, they were going to be told to take Passchen- daele.And again the 14th Battalion was on the spot.The Canadians did the job in a memorable attack on Nov.6, but suffered 16,000 casualties in 11 RMR ON PARADE:In their last parade through Westmount, members of the Royal Montreal Regiment participated in the annual church parade, held in June.Following the parade, members and friends gf the regiment joined in a service at St.Matthias\u2019 Anglican Church.The regimental history records the Battalion did little but march through the European countryside during May 1915, until it went into the trenches again at Le Touret for the battle of Festubert.Then followed a seemingly unending series of line duties and reliefs at Bethune, Beauvry, Neuf Berquin, Outersteene, Ploegsteert and Kortopyp on the Messines front.Then it was back to the Ypres Salient and later the Somme.The last took a terrible toll of members of the RMR with 360 NCO's and men killed, wounded or missing.Vimy Ridge The early days of April 1917 found the 14th Battalion preparing for the attack on Vimy Ridge.The attack began April 9 with an artillery barrage and it met with stubborn resistance from days.The battalions of the 3rd Brigade were not used on the assault.With Passchendaele ridge in Allied hands, the 14th was moved to Lens again and spent the winter there, passing the Christmas in St.Lawrence Camp.As spring of 1918 arrived, the 14th carried out a series of raids on German trenches in the Gavrelle sector.These were to produce the Regiment's second Victoria Cross of the War.One of the raiding parties was led by Lieutenant G.B.McKean who earlier had won the Military Medal.The Germans in the trench designated as his objective set up an effective block and would not be dislodged.Finally, Lt.McKean told his men to stand off.Then, with revolver in one hand, he ran at the German block and dived over it head-first.He shot the German leader after knocking him to the ground while the men of his To the Members of

early summer of 1918, it was training and more training for the 14th Battalion.But they were back in action again for the battle of Amiens in August.Late that month, when French divisions took over the front at Amiens, the Canadians were shifted secretly to Arras to act as the spearhead of an attack on the Hindenburg line.And then in the fall of the year came the 14th\u2019s crossing of Canada Du Nord.Nov.1 found the battalion in billets at Fenain, and they still were there when word was received that the Armistice had been signed.Two days later the 14th embarked on a march that was to take them into Germany.The Regiment marched 82 kilometres between Nov.3 and Dec.8 when they crossed the Rhine at the head of the lst Canadian Division.They had moved from Fenain by way of La Sentinelle, Elouges, Quaregnon, Neufville, then to the Rhine, and finally on to Cologne.On January 4, 1919, the Battalion paraded at Unter Eschbach where HRH Prince Arthur of Con- naught presented the King's and Regimental Colors.The Colors had been brought from England by Capt.G.V.Whitehead and Capt.H.G.Brewer \u2014 both destined to be commanding officers of the regiment.The regiment said good-bye to Germany March 5, 1919 when it entrained for Le Havre and crossed the Channel to England.Two weeks later, His Majesty the King held an investiture at Buckingham Palace and received of- Continued on

Major T.C.Lewis took over from Lt.Col.J.A.Calder who was promoted and posted.The new year's honors list of 1944 brought good news.Regimental Sergeant Major J.A.Mitchell was made a member of the Order of the British Empire.But March brought a devastating blow.Li.Col.Lewis was informed that the regiment was to be disbanded \u2014 but not even an army order could keep a good regiment down.Although members were dispersed to other units, the Royal Montreal Regiment was changed again before the end of the month to Army Headquarters Defense Company, taking over from the Lorne Scots.With the change in status, the RMR moved into what could be called the higher society of military life.Generals were commonplace at army headquarters, and even field marshals were frequent visitors along with other foreign dignitaries.The advance party of the company crossed the Channel June 17 and during the next six weeks was stationed at the heart of operations during one of the most critical periods of the war.The main body of the company stayed in Surrey during this time and The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, October 18, 1984 - 21 fretted, but finally it, too, reached Normandy late in July.So began a period of hectic activity at Army Headquarters.In September, Lance-corporal G.Malone of the advance party took two German prisoners \u2014 the first taken by any member of the platoon.That month, too, the company carried out a series of escorts and patrols and finally carried the badge of the Royal Montreal Regiment into action.Word was received that the unit was to be attached for a time with the Regina Rifles, and the RMR first saw action in World War II near Cape Gris Nez within sight of the cliffs of Dover.Calais Men of the RMR participated in the freeing of Calais, but were unable to stop long enough to join in the rejoicing.They were moved almost immediately to Hey Brugge, near the Franco-Belgian border, thence to Cliet where they Continued on next page We Salute TODD & DURSO NOTAIRES \u2014NOTARIES CONSEILLERS JURIDIQUES \u2014 TITLE ATTORNEYS 4635 Sherbrooke St.W., Westmount 931-2531 J.E.Todd\u2014 À.F.Durso \u2014 V.Casoria You!

bridge across, heavy enough to carry armor.Enemy positions were well dug in and stiff opposition was expected.Captain R.Schwob was in command of the company during the attack which was preceded by flame throwers which deluged enemy positions with fire.The first platoon that tried to cross the canal was caught by machine-gun fire and most of the personnel were casualties.However, platoons 2 and 3 made the crossing safely, only to come CONGRATULATIONS on your 70th ANNIVERSARY, ROYAL MONTREAL REGIMENT Westmount Florist 360 Victoria Avenue Westmount 488-9121 POINTE CLAIRE BRANCH 309 Lakeshore

the company strength had been whittled down to Capt.Schwob, Sergeant Lorne Thomson and 11 men.Lt.Col.Mathewson of the Regina Rifles commended men of the RMR on their \u2018\u2018great courage and splendid fighting ability\u201d following the canal attack.The company's known casualty toll has been tentatively set at six dead, 35 wounded and 21 missing.Sgt.Thomson was awarded the DCM for his outstanding work during the canal crossing and Capt.Schwob was awarded the Military Cross.Private Stanley M.Enair was awarded the Military Medal.Late 1944 found the company back at Army Headquarters, with the additional duty of guarding high-ranking German prisoners.General Eisenhower visited the HQ in November and inspected an honor guard of the RMR.Around this time, the armored car troop spend a month af the front with the Manitoba Dragoons, near Rosendaal, but the tour of duty was relatively uneventful.During the German offensive in the Ardennes, Army Headquarters was on the alert, and tension was acute.No direct threat materialized, however, and the stand-down order was issued.Spring of \u201945 The spring of 1945 found.the RMR moving with the headquarters, first to Tilburg, then Grave, and finally to Delden.The war was drawing to a close and the surrender terms became effective at midnight May 8.Meanwhile, the transformation of the RMR from a company back to a battalion again was slowly carried out and the armored car troop became the only element of the regiment to serve on the soil of Germany.In July 1945, the 1st Canadian Army Headquarters Battalion RMR was relieved by the Canadian Grenadier Guards at Apeldoorn and moved to Amersfoort to become part of the 1st Brigade.New colors were presented to the regiment by General Crerar July 10, 1945.Plans for the presentation of new colors, donated by the City of Westmount, had been inaugurated in 1938, but the colors reached Canada from London too late to be presented before the regiment went overseas with the 1st Canadian Contingent.A welcome ceremony was arranged in Westmount Park by the 2nd (reserve) Battalion where grandstands had been erected.The colors were turned over by the overseas battalion to the 2nd battalion and the order *Dismiss\u2019\u2019 ended nearly six years of service for the overseas battalion.In November 1945, shortly after the return of the First Battalion, Lt.-Col.Hugh Graham Brewer, MC, who had done the regiment extraordinary service, handed over to Lt.Col.Richard Pierson, MC.As second-in-command he had Major B.A.H.Smith, who had been one of the PSMs to go over with the First Battalion in 1939 and who eventually had gone to Italy with the PLDG.In 1951 the old colors were permanently laid to rest in St.Matthias\u2019 Church.The unit has always remained closely associated with the city of Westmount and, on its 40th anniversary in 1954, this was appropriately marked by the gracious action of the citizens of the community in granting the regiment the Freedom of the City, which also bestows on the regiment the right to parade through Aokith ART SALE: Sculptor and author Susan Stromberg-Stein, of West- mount, is co-chairman with Pearl Levy this year of the

again in Westmount as witnessed at the launching of the Johan Sarrazin-Terry Mosher (Aislin) children's book, Tootle.at the Westmount Public Library last Friday evening.Young mothers brought their small children in droves; soon-to- be mothers looked as if they could hardly wait for the blessed event.One area of the library resembled a kindergarten with little kids sprawled on the floor, dipping into Tootle.Unlike most book launchings, the majority of the crowd of 200 were young people.Johan and Terry autographed over a hundred books at $9.95 each and looked whacked after two hours.Judy Mappin, of the Double Hook bookstore, and her staff worked feverishly, serving wine and punch and taking in the bonanza.Hostess round-eyed Chief librarian Rosemary Lydon, the official hostess, regarded the jubilant scene with round, round eyes.She accepted the book donated to the children's library gratefully.It was autographed by Johan, Terry and Mayor Brian Gallery, who wasn\u2019t

3%-year-old- son, Benjamin, whom he had to carry because he couldn't find his shoes at the last moment.The McGill professor of political science bought one copy of the book for his four children to share.His other kids are Alex, 10, Thomas, 8, and Kate, 6.Among the more mature guests were Kathy Keefler, of Newswatch, and her distinguished husband, Dr.Robert Kinch; May Cutler, the book's

learning that the city plans to allow the light and power department and Bell Canada to string electrical and telephone wires in their backyards.The residents received a letter from Mayor Brian Gallery on Tuesday, explaining that city council had decided, in committee Oct.2, to proceed with the stringing of the wires between poles.The entire issue started about a year ago, when Bell erected telephone poles to replace aging telephone wires fastened to the rear of the attached houses.The city also planned to use the poles for new electrical lines, to replace the lines now strung between tripods on the roofs of the buildings.Holton residents Dr.James Coulton and his wife, Judith Kashul, protested to the city that the poles had been put up without proper consultation of the residents concerned.They said the poles and wires would ruin the esthetic value of the properties.The city then looked into other options for placement of the wires, including burying them or attaching them to the houses.\u201cIt is regrettable that so much work has not succeeded in producing for this vexing problem a solution with which we might all have been happier,\u201d admitted the mayor in the recent letter, but he stated that the other options were not feasible.\u2018Report discouraging\u2019 \u201cThe consultant's report was discouraging\u2019 said the letter, referring to the possibility of attaching the wires to the house exteriors.It explained that for such an option, renovations to several of the structures\u2019 walls might have been necessary.The letter also explained that the option of burying the cables was rejected because of its cost, which was said to be about $140,000 for the city and as much as $5,000 for each homeowner.Dr.Coulton and Ms.Kashul not only were upset with the city's decision, but they were even more disturbed with the way in which it was taken.\u2018\u2018We are concerned that the process has not been followed,\u201d Dr.Coulton told THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER.\u201cIt isn't a matter of frayed services.It's a matter of the democratic process.\u2019 Dr.Coulton and Ms.Kashul have certain complaints about how the matter was handled by the city.First, they say, city council was given only two options to choose between.These options were to either allow the telephone poles to be used or to install Wallet finder is anonymous A wallet containing $28.41 was turned in at local MUC police station 23 Friday afternoon.The finder refused to leave her name, police said.The wallet was found at Sherbrooke street and Victoria avenue and has been returned to its owner, a resident of Grey avenue.House visitors get sculptures Four sculptures valued at $2,750 were believed stolen from a house on Sunnyside avenue Oct.7.police report.The house was for sale and the items were believed taken re, open house.Two of, the, pieces, A were ivory carvings.underground cables at a cost to the city of about $140,000.Dr.Coulton said that, apparently, council never voted on the option of attaching the wires to the rear of the houses.He added that this was despite the fact that the consultant's report did not rule out this possibility.Meeting promised Second, Dr.Coulton said that light and power commissioner Joan Rothman promised the residents a meeting to discuss the matter once the city had compiled all the technical information concerning it.He said that meeting, in which the residents were supposed to be allowed to state which option they preferred, never took place.\u201cIt was a short-circuiting of the route by sending the information to council without going to the citizens,\" said Dr.Coulton.Finally, said Dr.Coulton, the city\u2019s Architectural and Planning Commission, which is supposed to oversee many aspects of the esthetic design of city streets, was barely consulted on the matter of the wires.He added that some of the committee's members informed him that the matter had been briefly brought up in a meeting of the commission in June.The matter apparently never was dealt with again by the commission.\u201cThe city did not direct this Two cars, one spot, $ 100 dent A parking altercation between two motorists ended last Thursday with $100 damage to a car door, police said.The incident occurred about 6:50 pm in front of 4840 Sherbrooke street when both drivers were vying for the same parking space.One vehicle apparently cut the other off, sparking the problem.One of the drivers, a man living on Vendôme avenue, kicked the door of a Honda owned by a woman resident of Kensington avenue, By ROB SOUTHCOTT matter, for full consultation, to the Architectural and Planning Commission,\u201d said Dr.Coulton.\u201cThe city has apparently made the decision without consulting all of the parties concerned.\" Maybe not over Although the city has made its decision in the matter, it may not yet be over.\u201cThe mayor's letter makes it sound like a dead issue,\u201d said Ms.Kashul.\u201cWe don't feel it's a dead The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, October 18, 1984 - decision on wires issue and we would like to continue investigating it.\u201d That investigation already has started, with Dr.Coulton contacting members of the departments of urban planning and architecture at McGill University.He said that members of both departments have expressed interest in examining the issue further.Dr.Coulton added that he also had approached the Westmount Municipal Association to discuss the matter.Dr.Coulton notes that the city of Montreal has recently looked into operating a joint program with Hydro Quebec to encourage homeowners to have underground electrical lines attached to their dwellings.He said the program may provide subsidies to homeowners to help pay for the work.\u2018At a time when wires are being eliminated .it seems contradictory that Westmount is still stringing them up,\" said Dr.Coulton, \u2018Cities are recognizing this is not pleasant and are doing something about it.\u201cIt appears Westmount is not biting the bullet.\u201d FREE SHOP-AT-HOME SERVICE DRAPERIES AND VERTICALS À decoration consultant will be pleased to visit your home with a

location in Westmount By ROB SOUTHCOTT Those passing by Westmount city hall last Saturday may have noticed the lights, caught a glimpse of the camera and heard the man in a ski vest and fedora shout \u201cAction!\u201d Westmount was making it to the silver screen, The man in the ski vest and fedora was film director Ted Kot- cheff and the dozens of people working with him made up the crew of Joshua Then and Now, the film version of Mordecai Richler\u2019s bestselling novel of 1980.The film tells the the story of Joshua Shapiro, a Montreal-born journalist and television pundit who rises from the 1940s working-class district of St.Urbain street to the affluent heights of Westmount in the 1970s.The film began shooting in August, and most of this fall has been spent filming on location around Montreal and Westmount.Joshua Then and Now is being produced by Westmounter Stephen Roth, chairman of the board of RSL Entertainment.Mr.Roth and his co-producer, Robert Lantos, also of RSL, bought the screen rights to Mr.Richler's book in 1980.Contributing elements \u201cIt was obvious that there were elements in it that could contribute to be a great film,\u201d says Mr.Roth, but he notes that care had to be taken with the transition of the story from the written word to the film medium.\u201cThe story is essentially a study of characters, not a linear story,\u201d explains Mr.Roth.\u201cThere was no single riveting story to carry through onto film.\u201d The book was converted to a screenplay by Mr.Richler, and the filming has been left to Mr.Kotcheff, who directed

\u201cIt's not essentially shot in Westmount to call it Westmount,\u201d says Mr.Roth.\u2018Il suppose we could have found similar places in Outremont or Montreal West, but Westmount is one of the

adds that the setting of West- mount was essential to the film, not only because part of the book was set here, but also because of the signs of affluence visible in the city.\u201cThere are parts of Westmount that are not the huge mansions,\u201d he says, \u2018\u2018but those aren't in the film.\u201d One exception to this is a number of interior scenes shot in a duplex on Somerville avenue.This location was used to represent a St.Urbain street apartment because the producers could not locate another apartment large enough to accommodate the sets they wanted to use.Along with Westmount, the film also has been shot in Brockville, The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, October 18, 1984 - 27 Ont., which was used to imitate resort areas of the Eastern Townships.Filming will continue in various locations around Montreal for the next three weeks, and filming of scenes in London, England, is scheduled to start on Nov.5.COLOR\u2014BLACK & WHITE TELEVISIONS.Mr.Roth expects the film to be
