[" Making all of Westmount Westmount PQ, H3Z 2Y8, Thursday, December 4, 1986 Vol.LVIII, No.49 Dawson gym plan an \u2018abomination\u2019 council is told By PETER BLACK Hillside seniors\u2019 project not \u2018fact\u2019 yet, says city \u201cIt\u2019s not a fact until it becomes a fact,\u201d is how Westmount Mayor Brian Gallery described the status of two senior citizens\u2019 projects proposed for the southeast end of Hillside avenue.At Monday night's meeting, Marcia Addleman, a Seniors of West- mount Action Group (SWAG) activist, congratulated council for supporting the project and asked Mayor Gallery for more details.The mayor said an EXAMINER report on the project last week \u201creads as if it's practically settled.I can't give you any more information.\u201d Earlier in the meeting, Alderman By PETER BLACK Sally Aitken, commissioner of community affairs, congratulated THE EXAMINER \u201con getting the scoop\u201d but added, \u201cIt\u2019s a bit premature.She said \u201cthere\u2019s no firm commitment,\u201d from the provincial government on either the \u201cnursing home\u201d project or on a 20-apartment addition to the Hillside housing project to be allocated to seniors.The seniors\u2019 residence would combine at least two existing facilities, St Margaret's Home and the Good Shepherd residence, into a 96- bed complex, to include a day centre for seniors on the ground floor.Westmount joins push to allow variable tax rate Westmount city council Monday night backed a resolution by the Town of Mount Royal asking the Quebec government to grant municipalities the right to use a variable property tax rate.The request seeks establishment of a variable municipal tax rate \u201cto distribute more equitably the tax 3 i Jo tur \u201cNo used cars?What kind of a drugstore is this anyway?\" burden among all categories of 1.rop- erties.\u201d Westmount had made the sun.recommendation last summer to the Parizeau Commission on the future of Quebec municipalities.The commission's report was scheduled to be released yesterday afternoon.The variable tax rate also had been one of the solutions proposed several years ago by the citizens\u2019 tax action group which mushroomed from a tax protest in Westmount.Alderman Phillip Aspinall, who proposed the resolution at Monday's city council meeting, noted that under the present property tax system homeowners ended up shouldering the bulk of the tax burden.Westmount is particularly affected because it does not have a large industrial tax base to share the tax load.T.M.R.was now taking specific action, he said, \u201cand I feel we should support them.\u201d Ald John Shingler called it a \u201ccritically important matter\u201d WESTMOUNT SQUARE GALLERIES NEXT WEEK'S WEATHER By Capt Eric Neal December 4 to 11 Cloudy, windy and cold in the north, with sunny periods.Mild in the south to start the week, with morning mists or fog, more like November than December conditions.Squally windstorms follow with rain, soft snow or freezing drizzle, then powder snow and gale winds with 40 to 60 km/h gusts.Tree damage probable.Deep drifts and icy roads will interfere with traffic.Improving and very cold everywhere from the middle to the end of the week, with wind-driven powder snow.2 He facility under the ministry of social affairs and 90 percent of the cost of the seniors\u2019 apartments on the adjoining property, through the ministry of municipal affairs, a senior city official confirmed.At present the city is negotiating with Quebec for the transfer of city property at the southeast end of Hillside, where the Public Security Unit and car pound are now quartered.Cycling thief grabs jewels worth $20,000 A 58-year-old Westmount woman lost her purse to a cyclist Tuesday night outside her house on Abbott avenue, police report.The bag contained jewelry valued at $20,000.The purse snatch occurred about 9:20 pm as the woman: was returning home and looking for her house key.The thief, who was described only as male, drove up on a bike and grabbed the purse, which contained diamond rings and à bracelet.Opposition to Dawson College's proposed new building

entire facility \u201ccould be ople go to Europe to see sites e that,\u201d Lawrence Capelovitch said of the Mother House property during question period.Once the site is altered, Mr Cape- lovitch said, \u201cyou can't replace this \u2014 ever.\u201d He decried the \u201cspoiling of beauty we have in our midst,\u201d should the college's physical education facility be built.Alderman Peter Trent, who, as commissioner of planning and redevelopment, is responsible for overseeing the design of the structure, told Mr Capelovitch that if the zoning on the site, changed just a year ago, were any more restrictive all building would be banned.\u201cWe think that would have been truly punitive\u201d to the college, Ald Trent said, as Dawson has a genuine need for the physical education facility.As the zoning is now, he said, nothing can be built on either the Wood avenue or Sherbrooke exposures, \u201cnot even a parking lot.\u201d Buildings on the de Maisonneuve side would be limited to under 39 feet; lower than the base of the Alexis Nihon complex, he noted.He said the existing zoning is \"a tremendous change\u201d from what existed previously, which would Of eight Canadians: Two Westmount women named Rhodes Scholars Of eight Canadian Rhodes Scholars announced this week, two are Westmount natives.Astrid Guttmann, a 1982 graduate of The Study, and Elizabeth Elbourne, a graduate of Miss Edgar's and Miss Cramp\u2019s School, are off to study at Oxford University from 1987 to 1989 with the help of $15,000- a-year scholarships.The coveted scholarships are awarded annually to university students who achieve outstanding marks, display leadership and moral character and have a fondness and aptitude for sports.Miss Guttmann, daughter of Dr Ronald and Dagmar Guttmann, 19 Aberdeen avenue, is currently majoring in history at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.While at The Study, Miss Gutt- mann was president of the debating society, the senior treasurer, a house head, a prefect and a member of the soccer team and yearbook committee.The 21-year-old now acts as treasurer and co-chairperson of the Amnesty International branch at Harvard and supervisor of the University Lutheran Church Shelter for the Homeless.Fluent in English, French and German, Miss Guttmann is a recipient of numerous awards and scholarships including, most recently, the Elizabeth Cary Agassiz Certificate Astrid Guttmann the Harvard College Scholarship.Both were earned in 1985-86.Upon graduation from Harvard this spring, Miss Guttmann plans on studying philosophy and theology at Oxford.Miss Elbourne, 23, is working towards her master\u2019s degree specializing in British social history.A graduate of Roslyn School, ECS, Collège Brébeuf and Trinity College in Toronto, Miss Elbourne participated last summer in a World University Services Canada seminar in Thai- have allowed the construction of a six-storey building on the site.Ald Joan Rothman added that when public consultation hearings were held on the zoning changes, in spring 1985, \u201cmost of the citizens agreed with the changes.\u201d During the council meeting Ald Trent stated the college's proposal \u201cwill be in total conformity within our existing by-law.\u201d He envisioned a design consisting of three long, narrow buildings, connected by a one-storey building, and featuring a one-storey gymnasium.He said neither the building \u201cdesign nor scope\u201d would have any resemblance to a depiction carried on the cover of an October edition of The Dawson Digest

DE WESTMOUNT» à été adopté par le conseil municipal de la Ville de Westmount, lors d'une assemblée générale, tenue à l'Hôtel de ville le 3 novembre 1986.Les avis concernant ledit règlement ont été publiés les 6 et 20 novembre 1986 conformément à la loi.Aucune demande de vote suffisante n'ayant été faite, le règlement est donc réputé avoir été approuvé par les propriétaires et locataires habiles à voter.Les détails relatifs a dit règlement sont contenus au complet dans le Règlement 978, lequel est ouvert pour inspection par toutes personnes intéressées, au bureau du greffier de la ville, Hôtel de ville, 4333, rue Sherbrooke, Westmount.DONNÉ à Westmount, PQ., ce 2ième jour de décembre 1986.Robert C.Wilkins greffier de la ville PU ÉE PSU stripped of flashers until police views heard By LAUREEN SWEENEY City council members Monday night formed a special committee to review the matter of red flashers for Public Security patrol cars following concern voiced by MUC police.Alderman Paul Fortin, West- mount's commissioner of public security, told THE EXAMINER yesterday the committee would study possible alternatives to the red flashers which were approved Aug 6 by council in general committee.\u201cIt waséfe]} that there was some point of vidw that had not been expressed before we took the decision, mainly from the MUC police department,\u201d he said.\u201cThey feel there is some confusion in the minds of citizens concerning the role of our public security as being police or crime fighters,\u201d Ald Fortin explained.\u201cThat mandate clearly belongs to the MUC force.\u201d He said he hoped the committee, which he will chair, will reach a decision on the flashers in about a month.Other members are Mayor Brian Gallery and Peter Patenaude, the city\u2019s director general.Although the city bought four roof flasher bars for the PSU cars and installed two of them several weeks ago, they subsequently were removed when the question of authorization was raised by police.Westmount\u2019s unit is one of the few which does not use flashers on its vehicles.Westmount, WESTMOUNT PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given by the undersigned, Clerk of the City of Under the Quebec highway code, vehicles must fall into certain categories to use red flashers, such as fire or ambulance vehicles, Ald Fortin explained.\u201cWe do some of that,\u201d he said of the publicsecurity cars, \u201cbut in an accessory way.\u201d He said the committee may well choose to adopt that route for classifying the cars.A survey conducted recently by the city revealed that a number of municipalities use red flashers on public security cars.Some register them as fire vehicles.Others have installed the red flashers with or without Quebec approval.Kirkland operates cars with yellow flashers while Verdun and Pointe Claire, like Westmount, do not sport any type of rooftop lights.MUC police are known to object to Westmount's use of red flashers on the vehicles, which are painted in navy blue with white doors, the traditional markings of marked RCMP and Ontario Provincial Police vehicles.Public security cars in other municipalities are painted in solid colors of yellow, fire red, black, grey and police blue.Pointe Claire operates in private unmarked vehicles.If you are healthy and between age 18 and 65, remember to give the gift of life.Be a Red Cross blood donor.WESTMOUNT BY-LAW 978 PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given to all who may be concerned that Bylaw 978, entitled \u201cBY-LAW TO REGULATE ZONING IN THE CITY OF WESTMOUNT\" was adopted by the Municipal

The National Film Board's Shameful attempt to discredit Billy Bishop, VC \u2014 A digest by H.Clifford Chadderton, OC, CAE, chief executive officer of the Amps.It is a fascinating collection of material in support of the admirable Bishop cult, but it prompts an uneasy feeling that it \u201cprotesteth too much,\u201d reinforcing the opposite view that there is indeed perhaps some myth surrounding the great Canadian air hero.Exaggeration, such as \u201can objectionable reflection on all those who served in combat in Canada\u2019s wars,\u201d doesn\u2019t help.We happen to feel that the Bishop legend remains intact whatever may be said now, that the Amps\u2019 application for an injunction against the film\u2019s distribution is an illiberal attempt at censorship (the type of thing against which we fought two wars), and the Hanging a Legend book, with arty, full-color cover is'extravagant and risks stemming financial support for the good purposes of the association and the real needs of its members.210040 PL ESS Ra \u20ac LL Lien hay You Say NEWS ITEM: A concrete wall is being built around Soweto, the great black township near Johannesburg WALLS WITHIN WALLS WESTMOUNT Illegal parkers, not store, to blame for towings Sir: Further to Ms Sutherland's letter last week: Maybe on reflection she will have considered her right to park in Mac's small parking area while she conducted business elsewhere.I was in the store at the time, and was witness to Ms Sutherland's ire after she found that her car had been towed away.Contrary to her statement she had no difficulty in getting a sensible answer from the people at Mac's, who under the circumstances were most generous and allowed her to use the store telephone, despite the fact that they had a full store at the time.Ms Sutherland was in no way apologetic, and at the time her only justification for parking there was that she had been a customer in the past.To answer her questions: Yes I guess we could find this a \u201ctrifle unfriendly,\u201d but so was her questionable behavior in using a parking space reserved for legitimate customers.Secondly, I can assure Ms Sutherland that Mac's only gain is a better control of its parking area, and no way financial.While $95 does seem an excessive sum to pay fora lesson in \u201c\u2018good manners,\u201d it now seems that she has legal recourse against the towing company.I should add that for years Mac\u2019s has had to tolerate its lot being used as free parking space by inconsiderate motorists who are shopping everywhere but Mac's.It is sad that it has had to resort to this kind of arrangement to make room for its own customers.The parking lot is clearly posted in both English and French and states that customers who make use of the parking have to be inside the store, or take the risk of being towed.It is difficult to believe that drivers still ignore all these warnings and then have the gall tocomplain about the consequences.All Mac's has done is to transfer its parking problem to its creators: those who abuse its parking area! It might not seem fair to Ms Sutherland but it seems eminently fair to me.Though regrettable when little courtesy could avoid an unpleasant situation.Gordon Renny 4823 Sherbrooke street west WESTMOUNT

\u201cWestmount is virtually the only municipality of its size in the Montreal Urban Community which clings to the notion of free access for citizens to recreational programs and facilities, instead of a user-pay system.It is one of few which does not offer the public a complete directory of recreational and leisure programs, which does not encourage community control over those programs and which has almost no inter- municipal sports contact.Perhaps most surprising, all of these items were among recommendations put forward four years ago by a city-appointed Recreation Advisory Committee, whose report was hailed by Commissioner of Services Ald Brian Gallery.\u201d The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, December 4, 1986 - 5 DEPANNEUR TOWS UNWANTED CARS FROM 11% LOT.COULD THIS DETERRENT BE

z Ë Policy differs, message clear IT WAS A good convention and if it did not unite the Liberal Party on policy, it certainly put us squarely behind John Turner as leader.And apart from the obvious division on trade policy there seemed to be solid support for a number of good liberal themes including a new approach to income security.As expected, the media and the government are trying to exploit the disagreements such as making Canada a nuclear free zone.While I voted against this particular resolution, I recognize that the spirit behind it is positive and constructive.A growing number of Canadians are frustrated by the failure of the superpowers to make major breakthroughs on nuclear disarmament.They want to send a concrete message, especially to the United States.Calling for a nuclear free zone is their way of sending that message.To deny NATO allies access to cur ports or air space because they are carrying nuclear armed missiles would be in breach of our NATO obligations.(I doubt that a resolution calling for Canada\u2019s withdrawal from NATO would have passed.) Moreover, if we want Canada to be a nuclear free zone, surely we would be inviting our NATO allies to follow suit.It would be somewhat hypocritical to deny the same right to other NATO allies.But is that what we truly want, unilateral nuclear disarmament by the western powers?Of course, if the East Bloc led by the Soviet Union agreed to follow in lock-step the world would rejoice.I do not think going it alone is realistic nor fair to our partners in collective security.oO uU r M - N A - Hon.Richard D.French says.Tentative roots sunk ONE OF THE things that is most difficult about being a politician is the amount of time most have to spend away from home and family.In effect, one becomes a citizen of two cities \u2014 or, rather, of one\u2019s constituency and of the seat of government.The atmosphere in à government town is, for the out of tuwn members, that of a sort of combined fishbowl and pressure cooker, with occasional overtones of a boarding school.Some thrive in such an atmosphere, most manage to adapt, and some discover that they or their families simply cannot handle it.I must admit that it took me a very long time indeed to get used to Quebec City.I knew, objectively, that it was a beautiful place, but arriving as an anglophone Liberal in 1981 was not the easiest entrée imaginable.I would say it took me about three years to feel comfortable in Quebec and to get to know some of its neighborhoods and its charm.I say all this because I recently made a decision to buy a condominium on the lower town waterfront of Quebec City, near the Place Royale.The small apartment is on the first floor of a renovated warehouse, which is built on stone foundations.I have been busily acquiring the bare minimum of hits and pieces required to set up a pied-à-terre, something I once swore | would never do in Quebec.It is quite a relief, however, to know that I will not have to live in hotel suites and out of suitcases for the next few years.Or will it be a \u201cfew years\u201d?Now that I have made this financial and emotional investment, I can't help thinking that politics will come along in its unpredictable way to disturb my carefully laid plans. 6 - By PETER BLACK Westmount home prices in August continued their unrelenting ascent begun in the spring, an EXAMINER survey shows.Based on 27 sales recorded in August, the average mark-up of sales price over municipal evaluation was a whopping 71.5 percent, up a full seven points over the previous month.If that mark-up is applied to a typical Westmount home, which the city's finance department calculates has a 1986 assessment of $191,400, that home should realize something like $328,251.The magnitude of the realty market eruption is best viewed through a comparison to last year.According to data for August 1985, the typical Westmount abode then would have been worth $234,655.Based on that figure, homes in the Garden Suburb are now worth 39.8 percent more than at the same time last year.If the highest and lowest sales are removed from the calculation, the average mark-up works out to 68.6 percent.The typical Westmount home, based on this adjusted formula, would fetch a handsome $322,700.All but seven of the 27 sales of single- and two-family homes recorded in the month were over $200,000, nine of them \u2014 one third \u2014 over $300,000.377 Claremont least expensive at $133,000 The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, December 4, 1986 777 Upper Belmont highest recorded price ($470,000) Transfers logged in August would normally reflect sales transpiring at least two months previous.Highest price The highest price listed in official documents was $470,000 for 777 Upper Belmont avenue; three homes sold for more but are listed as $1 and consideration on the deed.Bargain of the month would appear to be 377 Claremont avenue which went for $133,000, 51.6 percent over its municipal evaluation of $87,700.Another reasonable exchange would be 574 Claremont, which had the least mark-up at 32.9 percent, selling for $249,500.Highest mark-up was for a duplex at 325-327 Grosvenor avenue which, although assessed at $100,800, drew $264,000 on the open market \u2014 a 161.9 percent mark-up.All these joyous tidings bode well for the already well-fed realty agents plying their trade in increasing numbers in Westmount.But for the family not out to cash in on soaring prices by selling off the homestead, this red hot market means only one thing \u2014 higher taxes.After several comatose years, the realty market in the MUC is roaring to life and jacking home prices to unprecedented highs as demand outstrips the supply of desirable homes.Taxman off track As a consequence of this turbulent market, the taxman is hopelessly behind in assigning a \u201cmarket value\u201d to properties on which the municipality levies its mill rate.Three examples of how far off track Mr Taxman is: 36 Anwoth road: Sold for $385,000, with a 1986 assessment of $218,000, for a mark-up of 76.4 percent.The valuation on the 1987 roll is $241,400.That valuation would have to go up 59.5 percent to equal the true \u2018\u2018market value\u201d of the property.471 Argyle avenue: Sold for $250,000, with a 1986 evaluation of $115,700 \u2014 a 116 percent mark-up.The 1987 roll pegs it at $127,900.That valuation would have to rise 95.4 ATTENTION SNOWBIRDS! t Canada Trust we offer a wide range of financial services to meet your needs.investment management Average home worth $328,000: August data show red hot realty scene percent to reach the actual sale price.28 Burton avenue: Sold for $160,000, with a 1986 valuation of $75,600.The new assessment is $94,900.The sale price agreed on six months ago is 68.5 percent below the valuation set for 1987 and it would be a reasonable bet that home prices have jumped considerably in that time.Whether the MUC valuation department narrows the gap or not, valuations have nevertheless leapt considerably.Barring major market changes, homeowners can expect these hikes to be reflected in the 1988 roll to be deposited next September, increasing homeowners\u2019 share of the tax burden and Westmount\u2019s portion of MUC costs.But for realty agents and homeowners hoping to take advantage of capital gains tax exemptions, the times could not be better.Total sales value of single- and two-family homes for the month of August was $8,099,900.August details Following are details of August transfers, listed alphabetically by street: 36 Anwoth: from Camillo Luciani to Susan Paton, sale price $385,000(1986 MUC evaluation $218,200);

collar workers were included in the two-year 1986-87 collective agreement signed last week between the employees\u2019 association and the city.Among them are earlier lunch hours, emergency stand-by pay for electrical workers, premiums for operators of major machinery and extended provisions for the wearand use of safety gear.Although a general wage hike of 5 d 4 percent for the two years had \u20ac- announced by city officials in eptember, the additional changes remained under discussion until the signing of the contract Monday last week, explained Peter Patenaude, the city\u2019s director general.The contract governs about 145 manual workers, most of whom are employed in the departments of public works, light and power, and parks and recreation.It sets up a specialized category of premium pay for operators of such \u201cvaluable technical\u201d machines as snow blowers, mechanical sweepers, back-hoes, flushers and salt spreaders.\u201cThis is fairly common practise in bigger cities,\u201d Mr Patenaude said.Some machines will carry a premium of an additional $0.75 an hour; others, $0.50.The contract also provides a bonus of $60 a week to those light and power workers who are on-call for emergency situations \u2014 another innovation to Westmount's work force.Such call-back or stand-by pay also is offered in some municipalities.A man on call-back status who cannot be reached when needed will House key stolen after being dropped A key to a house on Gros- venor avenue was reported stolen Tuesday last week when it was dropped on the floor of the liquor store at Sherbrooke street and Victoria avenue and picked up by a man who refused to return it, police said.The suspect was described as about 35 years of age, French-speaking and wearing a green jacket.He put the key in his pocket and ran away along Sherbrooke.It had been dropped by a babysitter about 4:30 pm who had been sent on errands.The key was valued at $10.Car hits van; youth injured An 18-year-old man was taken to hospital Friday after the car in which he was riding hit the rear of a postal truck at St Catherine street and Greene avenue, police said.The victim was described as ghtly injured.The impact occurred about 7:05 pm when the driver of the car turned to speak to his son, the victim, police said.The car sustained more than $500 damage.Hockey gear carted off Hockey equipment valued at $850 was reported stolen from a car parked Saturday at 4028 St Catherine street, according to police.The vehicle was broken into through a vent window on the right side causing $350 damage.forfeit his $60 for the week.E.A.McCavour, the city's assistant director general for operations who outlined details of the contract, told THE EXAMINER this pay was being offered only the electrical workers because of the dwindling size of their crew.\u201cOver the years we've cut down on the numbers of men which means there are not many available to be called in for an emergency.\u201d The city, he said, now employs only six or eight men able to perform all types of repairs.Two are on stand-by around the clock at all times on a rotating weekly schedule.The financial incentive to be readily reachable should relieve the burden of responsibility on the foreman, By LAUREEN SWEENEY he said, as well as assuring citizens manpower is available at all times in the event of electrical problems.Under the contract, an electrical linemen \u201cB\" will be earning $32,843 for a regular 40-hour week.Under the change in lunch-hour, blue collars who work a 7 am to 4 pm day will eat at 11:30 am, a half-hour earlier than previously.This is expected to provide a more equitable balance between the morning and afternoon periods resulting in increased afternoon productivity.explained Mr McCavour who, until his recent promotion, was city engineer.An even earlier 11-12 o'clock lunch hour was tried out over the summer, he said, but \u2018we finally split the difference.\u201d Under the new contract, clauses regarding safety equipment and gear have been extended to include upcoming recommendations from the city\u2019s health and safety committee.This will mean that all workers, including regular summer help, will be required to wear protective gear as supplied by the city.\u201cFailure to do so will result in said employee(s) being immediately suspended without pay,\u201d reads the agreement.In addition, \u201cthe city is to be reimbursed by the employce concerned for lost clothing or equipment.\u201d General approval of a proposal for the collective agreement between the city and its Association of Municipal Employees had been given by city council at its statutory September meeting (see story Sept 11).Junked fridge secured by PSU A

association of St Henri-Westmount experienced considerable success in having its home-grown policies adopted at the party\u2019s national convention in Ottawa last weekend.The association contributed six of 282 policy resolutions to be debated at the convention.Five were adopted at the workshop level and, of those, two moved on to the plenary session where they were embraced as priori- \u201c ty party policy after being adopted Saturday virtually unopposed.One resolution calls for the initiation of an international tribunal, under the auspices of the United Thursday, December 4, By THOR VALDMANIS Nations, to protect the environment and sanction negligent countries.The other supports increasing foreign aid and renewing the party's commitment to devote 0.7 percent of the annual GNP to official foreign aid by 1995.Resolutions to enhance Canadian sovereignty in the Arctic, to improve Canada's water resources and to set more effective pollution controls (including acting on recommendations by the special envoys on acid rain) were all welcomed at the workshop level.TODD & DURSO NOTAIRES - NOTARIES CONSEILLERS JURIDIQUES - TITLE ATTORNEYS 4635 Sherbrooke St.W.Westmount H3Z

yesterday, Robert Cowling, the St Henri-Westmount riding association president, expressed some disappointment over the defeat of his group's resolution calling for a steady reduction in the national deficit.\u201cI'm a little unhappy about the deficit resolution not making it, but there's always another time,\u201d Mr Cowling maintained, referring tothe next national convention to be held in two years.Free trade debate St Henri-Westmount MP Donald Johnston had a tough time of it Saturday afternoon on the Convention Centre floor, as he, supported by former Liberal finance minister Donald Macdonald and former trade minister Gerald Regan, spoke out against a motion rejecting free trade talks with the United States in favor of a multilateral trade agreement through the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT).The dramatic debate pitted the St Henri-Westmount MP against caucus colleagues Lloyd Axworthy, the Liberal trade critic, and house leader Herbert Gray.The resolution passed 277 to 273.After a recount, the resolution held, 331 to 310.At the workshop level on Friday, however, a resolution backing free trade negotiations with the U.S.had been adopted, although with caveats.Where do the newly adopted resolutions go from here?\u201cThey\u2019ll go on record as part of Liberal thought,\u201d Mr Cowling began.With some of the more controversial resolutions, such as those on cruise missile testing and free trade, he said, other factors and responsibilities, in addition to the delegate vote, may have to be taken into account by the party's policy committee.\u201cBut that\u2019s just my personal feeling,\u201d Mr Cowling added.The riding president mentioned that in the case of resolutions which went virtually unopposed, such as those from St Henri-Westmount, \u201cI think it's a pretty good indicator that they are something the party wants and probably something the country wants.\u201d Rubbish fire doused quickly A small fire in rubbish at the base of an apartment elevator shaft at 4557 Sherbrooke street Sunday was probably started by discarded smokers\u2019 material, fire officials said.The fire had been extinguished by the superintendent before the arrival of firefighters shortly after 2:33 pm.No damage was reported.An automatic code 3 call to mutual aid firemen in Côte St Luc and St Laurent was cancelled at 2:43

Mayor Brian Gallery said at Monday night's session.He was replying to a statement by Ramzi Ferahian, 4998 de Maison- neuve boulevard, who said a number of citizens felt they could not receive adequate answers when questions had to be stripped to \u201cbare bone.\u201d The mayor said his council had been more receptive than other councils to questions and that answers did not always have to be obtained in the council chamber.His Worship then asked Mr Fera- hian for his question, which was whether ornot the city would \u201cpassa law\u201d making it mandatory for persons storing dangerous materials to make them known to the city.He then handed over to the city clerk a copy of a brief seeking greater environmental protection in Quebec municipalities which he had submitted last February

The truck was put into duty by the city in November 1983 at a cost of $250,000.It is now going into its fourth year, Mr McCavour pointed out, and is experiencing some of the same problems encountered by other fire departments operating vehicles made by various manufacturers.The following building permits were issued at Westmount city hall recently: Nov 24 4150 Sherbrooke: for Imperial Century 21, by Moderne Néon Ltée, erect sign, $1,700;

The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, December 4, 1986 Montrose sign a hazard; resident wants it gone City council was asked at Monday night's meeting to remove the stop sign facing northbound traffic on Clarke avenue at Montrose avenue.Alan Bull, a director of the WMA, made the request after council approved the removal of a stop sign on Sunnyside avenue as well as the installation of several others.Firemen probe hissing hole; gas not cause Westmount firefighters were called to a \u201chissing\u201d manhole on Atwater avenue south of Dorchester boulevard Wednesday last week at 2:57 am, fire officials report.The manhole cover was marked for natural gas but no gas reading could be obtained by firemen.Gas crews were called.The strange hissing was found to issue from a relief valve and resulted from trouble with equipment.Alarm spooks burglary try An alarm system was believed to have scared off burglars breaking into a house on Lexington avenue Saturday night, police said.The alarm call was received at 8:29 pm by police who reported finding the side door of the house forced.À screwdriver was believed to have been used.He said the Clarke sign, posted on the steep hill, would present special problems for motorists during winter months.Mr Bull was told the sign had been installed on an experimental basis and would be monitored.Mayor Brian Gallery said, \u201cI think we're going to try to get through the winter\u201d with the sign in place.The removal of a similarly placed one on the steep Mountain avenue hill was requested last summer soon after it and the one on Clarke were put up (see picture July 3).Crews called to Manoir thrice in week Emergency personnel were called to Manoir Westmount on three separate occasions during the past week, according to incident reports.Firefighters went to the seniors\u2019 residence twice on Friday.The first time was at 8 am when a 79-year-old woman sustained chest pains and had to be taken to hospital by Urgences Santé.Firemen were called back at 2:42 pmto investigate asmell of smoke on the fourth and fifth storeys.The cause was traced to heating oil spilled on a fresh air exchanger which resulted in a slight odor when starting up, fire officials explained.Public safety officers were called again Saturday evening when a resident became frightened about 6:50 pm by someone looking in her window as well as a shoe being thrown at the window.No one was caught.The Bache Seminar Series presents: How to Achieve Above-Average Returns on $25,000 Are you presently seeking fixed-income investments for your RRSP or other conservatively managed portfolios?If you are interested in learning about a strategy which will achieve above- average returns by investing in unconditionally guaranteed Government of Canada Bonds, you're the type of investor we can assist.Attend our seminar!

\u201cThere was a great deal of ice constantly forming over the retaining wall,\u201d she continued, adding that she was upset herneighbor neglected to have the leak fixed before winter.\u201cThe problem was known for a long time,\u201d she said.Began in September The pipe began leaking in September, at which point Robert Burris, the city's plumbing inspector, served notice on the owner of 157 Edgehill, a Mr Kogan, to have it repaired, according to public works officials.\u201cBecause the leak is on private property, repairs to the pipe are strictly the responsibility of the owner,\u201d Mr Caluori said.Mr Caluori added that the owner was contacted on a number of occasions since Mr Burris\u2019 first visit, by both authorities in Westmount and Montreal, asking that he repair the pipe.\u201cWe've been paying special attention to this problem,\u201d the director of public works said, noting the city hasbeen doing an inordinate amount of salting and scraping recently on the street.After labelling the leak a safety hazard in light of the ice, Mr Caluori said, the city opted for \u2018drastic action\u201d and sent Mr Kogan a hand- delivered letter Friday outlining their intention to shut down his water Monday at 4 pm until necessary repairs are done.Mr Caluori said the city was subsequently contacted by Mr Kogan, who asked for an extension until 8 am Tuesday at which time his plumber was scheduled to arrive.He was granted the extension.Mr Caluori said the city intends to bill Mr Kogan for salting and scraping services made necessary due '\u2018® the leak.Entry gained through door A video machine was stolen from a house broken into overnight Sunday- Monday last week on de Maison- neuve boulevard near Kensington avenue, police said.It was valued at $1,000.Entry was gained by breaking a window in the back door and unfastening the lock causing $30 damage.Fifty dollars in U.S.cash also was taken.ven RNIN NIRIRSICINNNE MN ENG SRN HANH 50 89.2 2 FSD AS0.4 rh mca A re + _ va COST(PRICE{ONLY.FREE To celebrate, we have for you, just for checking out our prices (without obligation): À HAND HELD MULTIPLE PURPOSE 4-IN-1 CAN OPENER IF YOU JOIN: Receive an accommodations-paid fabulous holiday for up to 4 people.8 days in the Laurentian Mountains just 45 minutes north of Montreal PLUS 8 days at the beautiful Versailles Hotel on Miami Beach PLUS (one mile from Disney Worid) A small surcharge per person per night is charged at hotel.Holidays can be taken together or separately until December 31, 1987.Absolutely NO sales presentation to attend.More details at the Club in brochure.Available for the first 300 people.THERE ARE NON-PERISHABLE FOODS e Kelloggs * Del Monte * Facelle Royale Do you buy at regular retail prices?Maybe you purchase when it\u2019s on sale?Perhaps you shop where you get a discount?Maybe you buy at the so-called \u2018\u2018wholesale price\u2019\u2019?Perhaps you pay wholesale plus 5% ?Consumer Club One Million IS THE PLACE IN CANADA WHERE EVERYTHING IS SOLD AT HIS GG [H 3 GOST PRICE [NET * Campbells ¢ Libby's sVH.* Proctor & Gamble * Heinz * Habitant ¢ Colgate * Gerber * Kraft ¢ Clover Leaf * Nabisco ° Maxwell House PLUS A MILLION & ONE OTHERS ALL AT COST PRICE THERE IS MERCHANDISE * Televisions e Videos * Sheets * Calculators e Compact discs * Socks * Watches * Small appliances © Large appliances * Gifts * Microwaves ¢ Stereos * Radios * Typewriters * Humidifiers * Telephones * Sewing machines * Razors PLUS A MILLION & ONE OTHERS ALL AT COST PRICE THERE ARE BRAND NAMES « JVC * lona * Magnasonic * Toshiba » General Electric * Jenn-Air ° Kelvinator e Braun * Sunbeam fm Gm, \u201c#2 |OUR REGULAR DAY-TO-DAY PRICES (examples) * Sharp * Technics e Brother PLUS A MILLION & ONE OTHERS ARSUND clou ALL AT COST PRICE TOWN PRICE THERE ARE SERVICES RCA 21\" Colortrak TV * Plumbers * Siding * Insulation Remote, on a oa] display, stereo ready $599.00 $480.00 cents SN a ee SUNBEAM 12-cup coffee maker * Electricians * Appliance repairs _* Carpet cleaning With portable carafe (thermos) $59.95 $21.00 Tiare oS replace work + Cabinet makers LARA $89.05 $46.00 * Til e Fire ° \"*\" PLUS A MILLION & ONE OTHERS SEE p'éresonie \u2014 : : ALL AT GREAT SAVIN GS Deluxe correction portable ype $325.00 $195.00 THERE ARE MORE BENEFITS Brand name MICROWAVE 1.6 cu * Insurance * Plumbing supplies Sensor .\u201ctt .probe, clock, jet defrost, 9 power levels, * Heating oil * Building supplies 10 temperature settings, programmable $599.00 $419.95 * Meat -

one of busiest on continent By THOR VALDMANIS The Port of Montreal has grown into one of the primary transportation and distribution points in North America, Dominic J.Taddeo, general manager and chief executive officer of the Port of Montreal, told the Rotary Club of Westmount last week.\u201cMontreal is by far Canada's leading container port with a 50 percent share of all containers handled in our country,\u201d he said.\u201cOn the Canadian east coast we handle 60 percent of all container movements.\u201d Containerized traffic, first introduced to Montreal in 1967, has grown on the average of 10.3 percent annually since 1978, Mr Taddeo continued, making Montreal a current leader on the east coast, after New York and Baltimore, in terms of volume.The Port of Montreal's dominance, even on a global scale, the Loyola graduate said, is attributable to \u201cover 300 years of human imagination, industry and perseverance, ingenuity and engineering.\u201d Samuel de Champlain founded the original site for the harbor in 1608 when he built a waterfront trading post.\u201cFor the next two centuries, our port mainly served the canoes, flatboats and barges engaged in the booming fur trade,\u201d Mr Taddeo said.In the 1850s the channel was deepened and soon after electric lighting was installed.All cargo types Today, the port is equipped to handle every type cargo with 100 berths, 30 transit sheds, three huge grain elevators, six major container terminals and 12 extra large \u201cportainer\u201d cranes.The port also has its own railway system which hooks up with the CN and CP transcontinental lines, Mr Taddeo added, in addition to a ship repair facility with two floating dry- docks capable of accommodating ships of up to 30,000 tonnes, operated by Versatile Vickers.Clearing up a common misconception, Mr Taddeo told his audience that the Port of Montreal maintains its operations year round, serving 932-3830 and RESTAURANT/BAR A fantasy land of fine chocolates, candies & gifts Come & see our line of imported gourmet items and discuss with us your orders for our special Christmas gift baskets.Upstairs we continue our fabulous Sunday brunch and we would also like to welcome you for breakfast, lunch & supper at Westmount (opr.wesTMOUNT SQUARE) Dominic J.Taddeo at Rotary last week primarily the Great Lakes, even though the St Lawrence Seaway closes down for the winter months in mid-December.Despite being 1,600 km from the sea and lacking a deep, natural harbor, Mr Taddeo said, the port is blessed with a favorable strategic location, serving a population of more than 100 million people.\u201cAbout 30 percent of American exports originate in the midwest, which is about the same distance from Montreal as it is from New York,\u201d Mr Taddeo continued.\u201cRailway service between Chicago and Montreal, for example, is much more efficient and reliable than between Chicago and New York.\u201cFurthermore, Montreal holds an edge over ports in the Maritimes because, when a steamship line decides to call at Montreal, it can very efficiently serve not only central Canada, but also the American midwest, an equally important market.\u201d Maritime ports are at another disadvantage in that the cost of water transportation is approximately four times lower than that of rail.\u201cIt pays to bring cargo as far inland as possible, especially today with intermodalism,\u2019 Mr Taddeo explained.aa: The success of the Port of Mont, has a large impact on Montreal, the province, even the entire country, Mr Taddeo said, quoting a recent study which indicated the port is directly or indirectly responsible for more than $750 million in economic benefits and the employment of over 17,000 people in various sectors of the economy.As a Crown corporation, operated under the auspices of Ports Canada, the Port of Montreal is financially self-sufficient, unlike many of its counterparts.\u201cThe port has had a total net income surplus of about $100 million for the past six years and its net result or profit totalled $19.8 million in 1985,\u201d Mr Taddeo said.The port's future looks bright, he added, mentioning a current expansion and upgrading plan that involves nearly $170 million in capital expenditures between now and 1990.Coos de Vries introduced his guest and Hector Abran thanked him with the question:

commissioners at a Dec 17 meeting, 7:30 pm, at Westmount High School.The setting is somewhat ironic since, as little as two years ago, WHS itself was targeted for potential closure.While Westmount\u2019s three PSBGM schools are not slated for closure in the PSBGM\u2019s current \u201cTarget Network\" dossier, the closure of Argyle Academy, one of two high schools threatened, could mean increased enrolment for WHS, if not structural changes as well.In addition, observers say, the closure of either elementary schools Guy Drummond in Outremont or Bedford in Côte des Neiges could result in a modest increase in enrolment for Roslyn School, which is already packed to the brim.As for Westmount Park School, the closure of Lome in Pointe St Charles could result in a large number of new students next year, on top of an already healthy student body.Malcolm Campbell High School in Moving and Cartage Déménagement et transport | | | | J À bas prix, déménagements, entreposage, boîtes

and Glencoe elementary school in New Bordeaux are the other schocls identified as potential closure candidates.Visiting the WPS committee last week, Joan Rothman, PSBGM commissioner for the area including Westmount, encouraged parents to attend the Dec 17 meeting, saying it was open to the public.\u201cAfter discussions and the meeting afterwards, some schools will remain open and others may be closed,\u201d the commissioner said on the significance of the meeting.PSBGM school closures are necessary, officials say, in light of declining enrolment and a mounting operating deficit, currently in the range of $3 million.\u201cWe are falling behind (in funding) in the province of Quebec, I'm afraid,\u201d Mrs Rothman said.The commissioner added that, at some point, parents will have to band together and lobby for increased government support.\u201cWe have to reverse the trend,\u201d said.she ZONTA AWARD WINNER: Rona Gomel, 18, recently won the annual ZONTA Leadership Award

; = RE The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, December 4, 1986 - 35 Hélène Holden \u2014 late-blooming writer transforms daydreams into stories Héléne Holden, versatile writer and a silent partner in the Double Hook bookstore, has been a West- mount resident for most of her life.\u201cMy parents brought me home from the hospital to a little duplex on Grosvenor where the floor slant- e he recalls.\u2018Since Grosvenor, es in other places with slanted floors.In one of them, if you dropped a marble or a pencil, it would actually cross the room and go nest in another corner!\u201d Judging from Mrs Holden's substantial output over the years, she has been able to catch her pen long enough to jot down more than a few sentences.Her latest novel, After the Fact, has just been released by Oberon Press.Prior to this were two novels and a translation: The Chain (Longmans Canada, 1969), La Chaine (Aries Books, 1970) and Goodbye, Muffin Lady (Curtis Books, N.Y., 1974).In addition to the novels, many of Mrs Holden\u2019s short stories, both in French and English, have been published in magazine, anthology and journal form.One story, published in Les écrits du Canada français, won the author the Prix de Littérature Benson and Hedges in 1977.Dramatic, film and television scripts round out her writer's portfolio.Many of her plays have been produced at the Quebec Drama Festival, but while she was paid for the film scripts she was commissioned to write, she has yet to see one pro- By SUSAN GRAY duced.\u201cIt is much harder to raise the money to produce a film than it is the author's fee,\u201d Mrs Holden explains.Luckily, one script over which she has had complete control is her monologue, Take a Canadian Author to Bed, which she occasionally performs in full costume.\u201cThe content dictates the form I'l] use for a particular piece.For many years, I felt like a jack-of-all-trades.Now I want to work on projects alone because when I work with other people, it means constantly motivating and organizing them.I'm past the age now where I have time to do this.\u201d Mrs Holden decided to become a writer because \"It was the last boat for me.If I'd done the thing that comes most easily, it would have been singing, it would have been music.My second choice would've been the theatre or painting or something like that.But it was not bien vu for a woman of my background to do any of these things \u2014 not that one was supposed to have a career anyway \u2014 but rather a tool for personal fulfillment.\u201d As Mrs Holden says in her monologue: \u201cWriting is cheap, clean, quiet, respectable and it doesn't smell.\u201d To pursue her socially sanctioned goal, she enrolled in a creative writing class at what was then Sir George Williams University, where she blos- In Holden's After the Fact: Cruelty of small village life metaphor for evolving Quebec Héléne Holden's latest novel, After the Fact, is, in the author's words, \u201can imagined situation,\u201d set at a time when Quebec has been torn apart by a social upheaval which has significantly changed life here as we know it.The narrative is told from the viewpoint of two narrators: Catherine Lemoyne, a Québecoise who has just fled to the village of Cap des Vents, in the Lower St Lawrence region, with her young daughter and English lover, and Marie-Ange, a schoolteacher and village resident.Because the novel is set in Quebec, it carries an immediacy for Canadian readers which makes it difficult to totally distance ourselves from the extreme situations depicted in the book.As such, it can be a valuable mirror through which we can study ourselves, as the events in After the Fact are not far from the realm of present-day reality.The fact that Catherine and her entourage have come from what was a privileged class prior to the upheaval is a source of great friction throughout the novel.The poverty- Strigken villagers do their best to life miserable for the Loyal- istS;\" as they are known, invading their home and the adjacent beach, throwing rocks at the house and, when Catherine ventures out, tripping her and hurling insults at her.Her daughter Natalie receives similar treatment at school where Marie-Ange, her teacher, victimizes the child to buttress her belief that the Loyalists are remnants of an unjust, obsolete regime that had to all.Of Catherine's \u201cfamily,\u201d her lover Lawrence is the most accepted by the community, an ironic twist on the political reality in Quebec during the late '60s and '70s.While there are definite hate factions in Cap des After the Fact Helène Holden Vents, still, a tiny number of devoted friends support the Loyalists\u2019 existence there.One of these is Justin, Marie- Ange\u2019s lover.The complications that arise because of his attraction to Catherine provide a source of intrigue in After the Fact.Characterization is strong, if somewhat on the dark side, in the novel.For one, Marie-Ange comes off as an embittered woman who, nevertheless, possesses some human qualities.The majority of the villagers, whose characters are not fleshed out to the same extent as Marie-Ange's, show almost no empathy for the Lemoynes; but, the author provides a societal context for their behavior by repeatedly mentioning the lack of food and the hardships of life under the new régime.The acts of goodness make a strong impact on the reader because of the severity of the cruel actions.As Mrs Holden says, \u201cIn dire situations, people can go both ways.I don't know why it happens but it does and it does independently of somed under the guidance of Edmund Fancott, a novelist, economist and fiction editor for the defunct Standard magazine.\u201cHe encouraged me to complete my first novel before I got married because he knew I'd give up writing then,\u201d she admits.The time was the '50s.\u201cMy professor was proven right as I only picked up my writing again when I was pregnant with my second child and realized I had to do somue- thing with my head \u2014 something I could do for the rest of my life.So | wrote to him asking if he would read my manuscripts.He did so for years.He was very encouraging.\u201cMaybe ! was always a writer,\u201d Mrs Holden added.\u201cWhen I was young, I never did anything.I would live through my imagination, an unabashed romantic.To this day, 1 still sometimes derive greater pleasure from my daydreams than from reality.When real life intrudes, it can spoil everything.\u201d She concedes that After the Fact is based on one of her chief desires: to run away with a great love to a beautiful place by the sea.Mrs Holden does manage to get away to the sea, her favorite destination, from time to time, but she prefers to stay close to home as she finds travelling tires her out.Things were different in her youth, however, as her father, who was in shipping, brought his family on extended trips to Europe, trips that meant his chil- what's within themselves.Sometimes they\u2019ll become very good and very heroic and sometimes they'll become very bitter, angry and dangerous.Especially when they have nothing to fight for any more.\u201d One of the problems of After the Fact is the slow pace with which the narrative unfolds.Bursts of action do make their way into the text only to be broken up by long stretches which lack a dramatic focus.This slowness of action is related to another problem which is the obscurity surrounding the events of the upheaval itself.The book could do with more details on the subject while still remaining a story with intrigue as well as acute social and political analyses.Mrs Holden has a gift for powerful poetic images, something she could have exploited more in her latest work.One of the most striking metaphors in After the Fact is: \u201cBut even from a distance, I see the flutter of the wind on the mourners who are trembling up the cape like a column of black butterflies.\u201d The ruggedness and sharp beauty of the land are brought out effectively in many places, thus suggesting the land itself has molded the extreme temperament of its inhabitants.Mrs Holden says that she began writing the novel at the beginning of the '70s, when it seemed that a revolution was a real possibility in Quebec.Now that the social and political climate has changed significantly, the book remains relevant as it focuses on class conflicts and factionalism which transcend language barriers.The novel is not light reading but rather thought-provoking.One hopes it will help its readers see the potential for malice within themselves and reject this in order to live by more noble principles.\u2014 Susan Gray Héléne Holden dren were often late starting school in the fall.Wherever the family would go, they would take in the local opera as the writer's Greek father was a passionate opera-goer.\u201cIt's something I've inherited from him.\u201d On her mother\u2019s side, Mrs Holden has extended the older woman's love of storytelling to the written page.\u201cMy mother should've been a writer)\u2019 she insists.\u201cEven the maids would cry when she told her stories.Sometimes she would adapt existing tales but usually she would invent them herself.\u201d As a child, Mrs Holden spent a lot of time in St Joseph de Beauce, a village near Quebec where her mother, a French-Canadian, was born.\u201cI know what I'm writing about in After the Fact\u201d states the author.\u201cThere is a lot of violence in small villages, especially in a cold country\" Horizons not limited The author\u2019s horizons are not limited to speculation about the lives of human beings alone.She consumes books about astrophysics and astronomy, possesses a telescope and believes that the most important thing for earthlings is to contact creatures from another planet.\u201cWhen we do, our theological and world views will change.It'll be fascinating to see if Christ or Mohammed came for them too.\u201cAs for the future of the human race, she is optimistic.\u201cWe've always been violent with each other but we are becoming more and more lucid.I think.I hope things will improve because the hig- gest problem we're faced with, bigger than natural disasters, is the potential for human cruelty.\u201d How does her writing reflect this lr as acancs ws srw auass.cavm VN BP BD CANT PCT BT TBAT TBE\" P concern for the plight of her fellow human beings?\u201cThe writer's duty is to amuse, not present propaganda in his or her work,\u201d states Mrs Holden.\u201cIf there is a message, it must arise naturally from the text.\u201d Political themes have appeared rarely in her own writing although she was married for 22 years to Richard Holden, a lawyer, writer and former politician who sat both as a Progressive Conservative and an independent.The two are still good friends and Mrs Holden admires her ex-husband\u2019s political acumen.\u201cHe's very acute politically.His predictions are usually right on,\u201d she says.\u201cIt was through him that ! became more politically aware.\u201d The couple raised three children, now all in their 20s, one of whom still lives in her mother's home.Caroline is studying voice at McGill's Faculty of Music but Mrs Holden is quick to point out that she is not living the dreams of her youth vicariously.\u201cWhat I do do is give Caroline the support I never had.I curtail my social life \u2014 I love giving parties \u2014 so as to allow her daily practising time.\u201d Arthur is an actor who has appeared in several Montreal productions and a writer who was a finalist in CBC's radio drama contest last year.Christopher, a student of economics, mathematics and statistics, has his grandfather's talent for making money.\u201cWhen Christopher was just a kid, I would accompany him to the bank where I would sign so he could take out loans.He would invest in stocks and play poker rather than babysit because he knew he could make more money!\u201d The Double Hook bookshop is another child which, along with Judy Mappin and Joan Blake, Mrs Continued on page 39 Powe om - \u201cru

on exam result comparison \u201cWhile in the majority of cases, the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal averages are lower than the provincial averages, there are nevertheless many examples of outstanding results, of which the schools should be justifiably proud.\u201d It is conceivable that Dr H.de Groot, the PSBGM's assistant director of instructional services, had Westmount High School in mind when he wrote the above conclusion i e PSBGM report on 1986 high x leaving examination results, released last week.Of 137 students enrolled in secondary V at WHS in 1986, 111 students received high school diplomas, By THOR VALDMANIS resulting in a success rate of 81 percent \u2014 9.1 percent above the PSBGM average of 71.9 percent.The WHS success rate places it sixth among 17 PSBGM secondary schools.Wagar High School in Céte St Luc led the pack with 86.1 percent of its students obtaining a leaving certificate last year.Lachine High School was second (85 percent), Riverdale third (84.7) and Royal West Academy and Sir Winston Churchill tied for fourth (83.9).Results from 11 high school leav- WPS supports ban on strap By THOR VALDMANIS The Westmount Park School committee has come out strongly in favor of a Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal amendment to abolish officially the use of corporal punishment in its schools.According to David Birnbaum, information director for the PSBGM, \u201cIt's more a theoretical decision than a practical one, because in practice the option is used very, very rarely.\u201d The strap was used only twice throughout the entire school board system last year, Mr Bimbaum said.\u201cWe haven't used a strap in this school for many years,\u201d chairman Sandra Guinness said during a WPS committee meeting Tuesday evening last week.\u201cIn this school, we have no policy of corporal punishment, only a policy of discipline.\u201d The PSBGM council of commissioners is scheduled to meet at the end of January to vote on dismantling the little-used practice in time for the 1987-88 school year.The Central Parents Committee has asked school committees to submit their opinions on the issue.No one seemed to have any use for corporal punishment around the WPS committee table.Except, that is, Richard Eggleton.Mr Eggleton admitted he had recently found an old strap and had placed it on his desk for effect.Shortly afterwards he found himself slapping the strap against his desk to ward off a student who had gotten out of hand.\u201cI had to,\u201d Mr Eggleton jokingly told parents, \u201cotherwise he would have beaten me up.\u201cHe's in grade 3.\u201d The principal told committee members that he had been in the educational sphere for 30 years \u201cand I've never found that it was an option.\u201d The school committee agreed and passed a motion to support the abol- ishment proposal.There were no dissenters.Roslyn School committee passed a similar resolution three weeks ago (see story Nov 13).GM

outlaw the strap a few years ago.ing exams produced by the provincial government last year give WHS students an academic average of 68.7 percent \u2014 identical to the provincial average in the same exams.The overall PSBGM average was 67.8 percent.\u201cWestmount High has a long history of doing quite well in high school leaving exams,\u201d WHS principal Richard Jack said Tuesday.The relatively strong WHS academic standing, \u201cis a message that doesn't get out very often,\u201d the principal added.Noting his students had a 100 percent passing rate in English composition and math 532 last year, Mr Jack said the WHS results display \u201cthe strengths in both our students and teaching staff.\u201d \u201cWe're not leading the province, so there's still work to be done,\u201d he continued.\u201cBut at the same time we've done quite well .I'm not disappointed.\u201d The PSBGM report was the first detailed comparison of its secondary V programs in a number of years.The

The WPS chocolate bar campaign, organized by the school committee, is intended to raise funds for new acquisitions by the school.\u201cEverybody will get involved in selling,\u201d principal Richard Eggleton replied to a parent query at a committee last Tuesday evening, \"the parents, teachers, students, caretakers.\u201d Under the terms of the agreement with a distributor the school is to keep close to 50 percent of net income from sales, committee chairman Sandra Guinness said.Mr Eggleton had some suggestions for use of the proceeds.\u201cWe are in desperate need of a photocopier,\u201d Mr Eggleton said.Referring to the school\u2019s temperamental, powdered-ink feed copier, \u201cIt\u2019s the type of thing businesses used 20 years ago,\u201d he said.\"It's constantly breaking down.\u201d A television set, books and a rock collection were among other items mentioned.Profits from last year's fund-raising basketball toss, approximately $2,000, went towards the revamping of the elementary school\u2019s library.KENWOOD\u2019'S MOVING & STORAGE (1986) INC.Move with \u201cCARE\u201d Local - Long Distance - Overseas Storage 341-3411 gone from home An unknown amount of silverware and jewelry was stolen from a house on Summit crescent between Nov 18-25, according to police.The home was discovered broken into Tuesday last week by someone checking it during the absence of residents.Access was gained by breaking a window in a rear door leading to the living room, causing about $100 damage.PEUGEOT OWNERS Winter service time is here!
