VOLUME 1, NUMBER 2 

art 

OTTAWA, JULY 8, 1973 

Basford asked 

to intercede 

Next moves over the 15-storey highrise 

now being built by William Teron 

Associates at First Avenue and the 

Driveway may come from the Minister 

for Urban Affairs, Ron Basford. 

Glebe Community Association has 

written the minister making two 

suggestions: 1) that he convince Teron to 

scale down his development from a 

highrise to town houses, or 2) that the 

NCC acquire the property for a park with 

the possibility of future re-sale for 

development more appropriate to the area. 

It was hoped that Mr. Basford would 

meet with representatives of the Association 

this week. It is understood however that 

letters have gone from the minister's 

office to the NCC concerting the site. 

Meanwhile Board of Control and City 

Council have both approved down 

zoning of the area from high density to 

family housing in a rare action to save 

the picturesque canal-side from 

unplanned devlopment. 

Mr. Basford, as minister responsible 

for Central Mortgage and Housing 

Corporation, is William Teron.s new 

boss since the latter took over as head 

of CMEIC July 1. 

Pat Zolfwho has led the fight against 

highrise development along the Driveway 

writes: 

The Battle of Patterson's Creek 

became a national news story last 

week when an article appeared in the 

Montreal Gazette and other Southam 

newspapers pointing out that William 

Teron is developing a high-rise building 

at First Ave abd the Driveway which 

CMHC planners oppose as unsuitable for 

the Driveway area. 

New committee with rec and parks 

by GEORGINA WYMAN 

The department of recreation and 

parks has accepted an exciting challenge 

to experiment with new ways of 

communicating with community poups. 

A Glebe Liason Committee will be 

set up on a six month trial basis to 

improve communication between the 

Glebe Community Centre Council and 

the department of recreation and parks. 

Alderman Gale Kerwin said at the 

June 25th meeting of his recreation 

and parks committee at City Hall that 

the acting commissioner of Recreation 

and Parks, John Tucker had agreed to 

this proposal. 

The Liason Committee is designed to 

deal with problems and situations which 

the department's area supervisor and 

centre director are unable to resolve. 

On the committee will be Alderman 

Don Lockhart, representatives pf the 

Glebe Community Centre Council, 

officials who work in the Centre, and 

specialists from the department who 

The Ottawa planning board report 

quotes CMHC as saying "The Corporation 

supports the intent of the applicants and 

the recommendation for downward zoning 

in Light of the historical "heritage", 

density, traffic, open space and other 

considerations covered in the Planning 

board report. There is some urgency 

in dealing with this issue in view of the 

advanced stage of current development 

proposals". 

Mr. Terom is to become CMHC 

president on July 1. 

Mr. Teron was quoted in the article 

as saying thst he was totally in 

agreement with the Glebe Association's 

position on down-zoning but that he 

intends to build his 15 storey building 

anyway. 

Rezoning bid killed 

In an unusual move by City Council 

this week, a rezoning application by the 

C A Fitzsimmons Company was killed on 

second reading. 

The site under consideration was the 

north-west corner of Bronson at Carling 

Avenue. 

Councils normal proceedure is to debate 

and vote on a bill at first reading 

and to pass it automatically on second and 

third readings. 

However when second reading came up 

this week, opponents of the rezoning 

application called for a recorded vote. 

The vote was 7 to 6 in favour of the 

application but Mayor Benoit used his 

option of voting to vote against the 

bid. With the vote tied 7 to 7 the bid 

was killed. 

have authority to deal with particular 

items on the agenda. It is hoped that 

in this way unresolved problems will 

find fast solutions 

Mrs. Sandra Elwood. chairman of 

the Council stated that the committee 

would lessen the arount of correspondence 

phone calls and time expended by the 

community group and city officials in 

matters pertaining to the Glebe 

Community Centre. 

The group is to meet at the request of 

either the Community Centre or the 

department. The Council felt that 

such a structure is necessary because 

the Glebe CommunityCentre is a 

different kind of centre from others 

now in Ottawa, trying to respond to the 

total needs of the community, not 

recreation only. 

The Council also pointed out that if 

a good working relationship evolves with 

the department this committee could 

serve as a model to be followe&by 

other centres which develop along the 

lines of the Glebe Community Centre. 

Yes Madam, that is a concrete-fi.11ed hole you're looking at, on the once elegant 

Drireway. Hoardings sr-cound the Toron high-e,se site at First Avenue and the 

Driveway. Further down the winding, tree-lined street more private houses are 

being demolished for a 15-storey apartment building. 

Brewer Park to live again 

Brewer Park pond, closed to swimming 

three years ago because of provincial 

safety regulations, will live again. 

Wharves for fishing, paddle boats and 

a creative playground are now being 

installed by the city department of 

recreation and parks. 

"We hope it will be a family-type park, 

where people can go and spend the whole 

day", John Tucker, acting commissioner 

of the department, said Thursday. 

The pond itself will be cleaned, leaving 

weeds and other natural growth, while 

lily pads vvill be planted and "a thousand 

small fish" deposited in it. 

That should keep quite a few kids 

busy this summer on the six wharves that 

will be especially constructed for young 

fishermen on the pavilion side of the 

pond. 

Pulley slides about 100 feet long slung 

on cables between posts, making a sort 

of aerial slidewill be a new experiment 

for the department. Don Gamble, 

coordinator of research and development 

for the department, said the slides would 

have a drop of about six feet in all. Kids 

can get off anywhere along the slide by 

putting their feet down. "It's like a 

ski run", he daid. 

There will abso be a creative playground 

with lots of sand and wooden structures 

for climbing, as well as ropes and tires 

hung on trees near the picnic area. 

Two old volkswagens have been stripped 

down and spot-welded to make interesting 

clambering objects. 

Two bocce courts, benches and pots 

of flowers will be installed. 

"The whole thing will be ready in about 

10 days Mr. Gamble said Thursday. 

C hances of actual swimming again in 

the pond appear low, unless provincial 

health regulations are changed. A major 

problem is the Tumidness of the water 

aue to the sand bottom, although the 

water itself was not polluted, Mr. Tucker 

said. 

Glebe Report apologizes to Mayor 

The Grebe Report recognizes that the headline in our last issue "Benoit accused of 

brealcing faith over Holmwood" could be construed by readers as a personal 

accusation. 

The intent of the news story, as was clear in the first sentence, was that City Hall 

as a body was accused of a breach of faith by the signera of a letter addressed to the 

'Mayor. 

The Glebe Report recognizes that the letter made a differentiation between the 

Mayor personally and City Hall as a body; we regret that the headline did not make 

as clear a differentiation.

School use 

A select committee of the Ontario Legislature has recommended 

that school buildings be ttuned over to community action councils 

out of school hours. 

It urges that schools become centres for living and learning, 

providing library, museum, health and social serveces, - anything 

in fact that could enrich and ease the life of the community. It 

would abolish the requirement that all teachers have formal 

teaching certificates, and it would encourage local artists, businessmen 

and others to contribute to the educational process. It 

strongly recommends that infant and child care be made part of 

the provincial system of education. 

It says there is no reason why ground floors of apartment buildings 

should not be used for primary grades schooling. 

"We are concerned to bring the school, which has tended to define 

itself as a separate entity, back into community life....too often 

educators seem to consider that 100% of a child's education is 

received from the school" it states. 

This is good to read in the week that saw the locks being turned 

on the doors of libraries and gyms in the Glebe schools for 

another summer season . 

It will encourage Board members who campaigned for election 

last November on more community involvement to begin turning 

ideas into action. 

Community participation 

City Council allowed a zoning change this week that would 

permit an office building-warehouse complex to be built on 

Morrison Drive at Consul Avenue in the cities west-end. 

In following this course of action, council had to decide to 

listen to the area residents or follow the recommendations from 

both the Planning Board and Board of Control. They listened 

to the community and made the right decision. 

In the Glebe this week, we saw council go along with both 

a traffic plan which the community and the traffic department 

developed together and a down zoning which the Community 

Association had applied tor. Also, the Recreation and Parks 

Department agreed to try a new method of communication with 

the Community Centre Council to attempt to improve the 

method of running the community centre and increasing input 

from the community. 

Both council and some civic departments are slowly starting to 

allow more community input and participation and this we hope 

will continue.

Really now, nobody expected 

that William Teron, the barefoot 

wunderkind from Manitoba 

who became a Rockcliffe millionaire 

before he was 40, would 

back down on his plans to build 

a highrise apartment complex 

next to Patterson Creek. 

Teron has been a go-getter 

since he came to Ottawa 23 

years ago and started his own 

business with a personal investment 

of only $500. 

When you have been successful 

in locking horns with 

the wiliest of competitors, as 

Teron has been in his various 

Ottawa and district developments 

you don't chicken out over 

bleeding heart appeals to preserve 

the sylvan beauty of 

Ottawa's showcase Driveway. 

Sentiment to hell, up with the 

profit motive. 

VVhat's desenchanting to some 

Glebe residents about Teron's 

project is that he has encouraged 

the legend that he is the developer 

with heart, the guy with a 

flair for injecting the human 

dimension into mortar and 

brick.

by the Ottawa Citizen to his 

the same way in the winter ?

president of Central Mortgage 

and Housing Corporation, 

it was stated, "In business he 

(Teron) was one of those innovators 

everyone wanted to

But nobody wanted Teron to 

succeed more that Teron did.

Teron so that everyone in the

shining new hope for a better 

housing deal for Canadians. 

What a hope - I mean so far 

I haven't been able to get 

past his receptionist. 

Not all Glebe residents are 

opposed to the 14 storey 

complex which Teron will 

build at 300 The Driveway. 

Planning consultant and 

architect John Leaning, of 

Third Ave. , says Teron's 

project "is good use of this 

particular property. You can't 

fault him as long as we have 

a systemwhich allows people to 

make a profit in housing". 

Leaning adds, "I'm more worried

about the single tower high-rise 

that is planned for the Driveway 

at Fourth Avenue, and 

what could become of the 

Victorian row houses between 

First Ave. and Second Ave." 

Teron believes dreams and 

ideals can be melded with 

practicalities. But what dreams 

and whose ideals? 

Glebe residents are resentful 

because Teron, who readily admit: 

he will never have to worry 

about money, did not demonstrate 

his good intentions for 

Canada's housing future by 

foregoing this last fling at 

making a developer's big buck 

before taking over at CMHC. 

As developer Teron is turning 

his dream for the Patterson 

Creek site into a complex of 

$50,000 apartments, he has 

been critical of most downtown 

Ottawa zoning which has permitted 

residential communities to be 

levelled to make way for highrises. 

Confronted by this apparent 

contradiction, Teron has said, 

"I live with the rules. You're 

doing what the law allows you." 

When he takes over as presedent 

of CMHC, I suspect 

William Teron will have a hard 

time selling dreams, or ideals, 

to the wheeler- dealers of the 

urban development fraternity. 

Perhaps we could gyow to be 

friends with them. Only it's a 

little difficult to get an audible 

word in when they're around..

Heritage Homes 

520, the Driveway, is a gracious house seldom seen by passersby 

because it is set back frOm the road, on a hill and screened 

by trees. According the NCC records it was built in 1871 by James 

Galetti Whyte, a Fitzroy township miller and merchant who came 

to Ottawa in 1855, the year Ottawa became a city, and started a 

stationery business which still exists. His store and first home 

were on Rideau street where Freimans/The Bay now stands. The 

house changed hands in 1889 and again in 1893. In 1901 the Roman 

Catholic Episcopal Corp. bouhgt it for $7,000 as a residence for 

the apostolic delegate to Canada. Extensive enlargement and 

renovations were done 1923-24. 

The house was threatened with demolition in 1961-62 when larger 

quarters were needed by the apostolic delegate. There was public 

concern that the house should be preserved and in the end it was 

soldto the Basilian Order, which now uses it as a seminary for 

10-12 students., 

The house appears to be in good condition, although a spokesman 

for the Order indicated it was difficult and expensive to 

keep up. The exterior stonework looks solid. A handsome 

curving staircase in the main reception room has been preserved. 

Another reception room is now a chapel. 

Holmwood story wrong 

Ed i -.1r; 

I should like to take this 

opportunity to correct an apparently 

unintended but 

nonetheless significant 

misrepresentation of faCt in 

your first issue. 

While I was happy to see so 

much space devoted to 

possible effects the Glebe traffic 

plan might have on Holmwooc 

Avenue, I was distressed to 

find a front-page story 

headlined:"Benoit Accused of 

Breaking Faith Over Holmwood". 

As the story under the headline 

correctly stated, a g;roup 

of us in the Holmwood area 

did write to the Mayor about 

a "breach of faith"._ We 

reminded the Mayor that, 

when residents voted on the 

plan on May 1, they were told 

to write suggestions for 

alteration on the backs of their 

ballots and that these proposed 

am endments would be 

considered for incorporation 

into the plan before it went 

into effect. We noted that 

when the plan went before the 

City's traffic committee,, there 

was no indication that our 

write-in proposals regarding 

Holmwood Avenue or any 

other suggestions written in on 

May 1 would be considered 

until after the scheme had 

been implemented. 

That was what we considered 

a breach of faith, but we said 

it was a "breach of good faith 

by City Hall". We did not 

accuse the Mayor himself of 

anything. In fact, we had 

no idea whether or not the 

Mayor even knew how the plan 

was being presented to the 

traffic committee. 

Thank you for this opportunity 

to set the record straight. 

Despite this passing problem, 

I congratulate you on your 

first issue and look forward to 

seeing much more of The 

Glebe Report. 

Sincerely, 

Marvin Schiff 

Editor; 

Congratulations on your first 

issue of the Glebe Report, June 

17, 1973. 

A newspaper such as the Glebe 

Report will be an asset to our 

wonderful community. Your 

first issue was very informative 

and extremely well laid out. 

I suggest that all residents and 

and businessman of the Glebe 

give the paper their fullest 

support so that they may benefit 

and you may succeed. 

Yours truly, 

W. D. Willis 

McKeens IGA 

Editor: 

Allow me to congratulate you 

on the commencement of your 

community newspaper 'The 

Glebe Report'. 

May I take this opportunity 

to wish you every success in 

the future. 

Sincerely 

Hugh Poulin, M. P. 

Ottawa Centre 

Editor; 

I am pleased to hear of your 

new venture, The Glebe Report, 

and wish to take this opportunity 

to extend my very best wishes to 

all those involved. 

You are to be commended for 

your efforts in attempting to 

inform the corn munity of local 

events and I am sure a bi-weekly 

newspaper such as you intend to 

publish will be of much interest 

to the people in the area you 

will serve.

Food 

Cooking 

The Glebe Report asked two 

Glebe residents to comment on 

continuing high food prices. 

Elaine Marlin, a diet specialist 

suggests meat substitutes and 

has another low-cost high food 

value recipe. Joyce McCaffrey 

who has been working on a 

study of food prices, comments 

on the world-wide problem 

and proposes some basic 

reforms. 

meat substitutes 

by ELAINE MARLIN 

Comment on food prices 

There is a world shoetage of 

food. Population is still 

increasing relentlessly and 

the growing demand for food 

is pushing up prices, even in 

surplus-producing countries 

like Canada and the United 

States. 'These unpalatable 

but undeniable facts were cited 

time and again during the 

recen t hearings of the 

Commons Special Conmittee 

on Trends in Food Prices, as 

the basic cause of the soaring 

cost of food. 

The National Anti-Poverty 

Organization talked matter-offactly 

about pensioners who 

buy canned dog food for the 

table and families for whom 

Kraft dinner is a treat, .. and 

yet among the 20-odd members 

of the committee, all of whom 

deplore such situations, only one 

Grace MacInnis (NDP Vancouver 

Kingsway) repeatedly asks for 

evidence to be given by 

nutritionists as to fundamental 

food requirements. Even her own 

party colleagues on the 

Committee don't support her on 

this, nor does the only other 

woman on the committee. 

Grace MacInnis is the only 

by JOYCE MCCAFFREY- 

public figure who asks us to 

consider that an adequate 

diet be a recognized basic 

human right. 

Revolutionary idea ? 

Bleeding-heart socialism ? 

Just think about it a minute. 

We consider education so 

necessary to human life that 

it is provided by the state (out 

of taxation revenue, of 

course) to every child in the 

country. W e consider 

adequate medical care so 

necessary to human well-being 

that the government has taken 

on the responsibility of 

providing it to all Canadians. 

And yet food, without which we 

would not survive to enjoy 

education or to need medical 

care, is left largely to the 

vagaries of the individualistic 

free- enterprise system, with 

a minimum (by comparison) 

of government control. 

The governmnet can't control 

the weather, and bad w eather 

is almost certainly going to 

bring a very poor harvest in 

eastern Canada this year but 

it could surely take advantage 

of years when there are 

bumper crops to encourage the 

processing and warehousing 

of the surplus against future 

need. 

The government could also 

start a gradual re- structining 

of the food delivery system by 

encouraging consolidated 

warehousing in each region, by 

insisting on thorough planning 

for new stores to prevent 

excess capacity and underutilization 

of labour. It could 

bring some order into the 

nightmare of proliferating 

packaging, and could 

stringently regulate the advertising 

of food products. It could 

encourage producer marketing 

boards which serve to stabilize 

supplies and prices and to 

guarantee a decent income to 

the farmer. 

It could even encourage the 

establishment of consumer 

education courses in schools and 

community centres, to train 

Canadians in basic nutrition, 

and to help them spend their 

food dollar wisely. It could 

but this would mean government 

interference on a grand scale. 

We don't want that, do we? 

Dog food, after all, is really 

very nutritious. 

A main problem in finding 

alternatives to meat is the 

basic distrust of many Canadians 

toward anything but beef, and 

particularly toward fish. Many 

people simply do not know how 

to cook anything else but beef 

and pork chops. Not many 

people will accept fishsimply 

fried or broiled with no trimmings. 

set the best restaurants in the 

Arorld serve trout, shrimp, salmon 

and sole extensively. They 

succeed by not overcooking the 

fish, and by accompanying it 

with the right spices, herbs and 

sauces to compliment its taste. 

light now, in the hot 

weather, fresh B.sh is not selling 

at bargain prices. But fish of 

extremely good quality can be 

had for the same price as rather 

tough meat. Frozen fiah is a 

good buy for m ost varieties. 

Here are some current local 

selling prices: 

salmon $1.49 per 12 oz 

shrimp -- $2.55 per 12 oz 

sole $1.25 per lb. 

trout -- .98 for two. 

Canned tuna is .53 for 61 oz 

and canned sardines .18 for 31 oz. 

Compare protein content 

with sirloin steak, which has 

20 protein grams per 3 oz. 

Shrimp provides 23 grams per 

3 oz; canned tuna 25 grams per 

three oz and sardines 22 grams 

per 3 oz. 

An added advantage of fish 

right now is that it can be 

cooked quickly without heating 

up the kitchen, and can also be 

used in salads and sandwiches 

which can be made in the 

morning and served for supper.

Kindergarten 

teacher retires 

MRS. MARION GILLIES has 

taught her last kindergarten 

class at First Avenue school 

after 18 years of dealing with 

small school beginners. She is 

still bubbly about children:"It's 

a wonderful time for children, 

they have so many advantages". 

She believes children today 

are more creative and mature 

than pre-TV era kids. In her 

current events discussions she 

encourages children to act and 

sing - as well as tell - the news 

items they have brought in. 

Mrs. Gillies and her husband, who 

has also retired as Frincipal of 

Vincent Massey school, will 

travel and indulge their love 

for music and theatre duting 

their retirement. Unfortunately 

their house on the Driveway 

has also ended its working life: 

it was one of the first to succumb 

to develorers and will be replaced 

by a high-rise.

Grade 7 at Mutchmor School 

may be re-established if a 

submission by the Mutchmor 

Advisory Committee is 

accepted by the Board of 

Education. 

Advisory Committee members 

ask the Board to take imritediate 

steps to investigate the 

feasibility of establsihing grade 

7 in the 1974- 75 school year. 

Mutchmor grade 7 would be 

an option open to parents and 

students who have shown an 

interest in staying within the 

Glebe community rather than 

going on to Clash an or 

Hopewell. 

Mutchmor School 

submission 

The future of bilingualism in 


the national capital is 

encouraging if parent interest 

at Mutchmor school is typical. 

The most common concern 

among Mutchm or parents is 

the teaching of French. Many 

parents and children were disappointed 

not to find places in 

the new experimental imrersion 

and bilingual programmes which 

will start in September. This 

shows the need to improve and 

extend the basic French in 

all levels of schooling. It is 

to be hoped also that experimentation 

is coming to an end and 

that parents and pupils will 

be able to plan ahead rather 

than be presented with new 

options each spring. The 

demand for French in the 

Glebe exceedrthe suppiy.

Regional 

govern ment 

by MICHAEL PINE 

The meeting of Regional 

Council on June 13 was 

dominated by Mayor Benoit's 

angry defence of Ottawa's 

need to decide its own affairs. 

Two significant issues were 

uncovered: the first was that it 

appeared that the regional 

traffic engineers were quietly, 

and without any sanction from 

the Council, assembling land 

for an arterial running eastwest 

from Britannia, along 

Scott street, Somerset, Donald 

to St. Laurent, and from there 

along Blair Road to the east. The 

second point was that this was 

generally being supported by 

the suburban and rural 

representatives. 

The original issue that raised 

all this was whether regional 

council should expropriate a 

small parcel of land which, iff 

allowed to be developed, would 

effectively block a bridge across 

the canal at Somerset St. By 

the time the final vote was 

taken this was virtually forgotten; 

the issue was by then the right 

of Ottawa to decide on where 

and if arterial roads should be 

located within its boundaries. 

It would be satisfying to 

report that Mayor Benoit's 

speech, or the action of more 

than 34 community groups who 

opposed the expropriation, 

carried the vote. In fact, after 

four hours of spirited debate 

most subtuban and rural 

representatives had left. The 

motion for expropriation was 

defeated by 13 to 9. 

We are left with a mystery. 

Did the subruban and rural 

people leave as a face-saving 

device because of the extremely 

strong city and citizen reaction 

to their position, or was it to 

get home before dark ? 

WHAT IS FESTIVAL CANADA? 

Festival Canada is...being in 

The National Capital Region, 

where July 1st lasts all month... 

It's movies, plays, music, and 

dance under the stars at the 

Astrolabe Theatre. It's Camp 

Fortune, open - air entertainment 

in the relaxed surroundings of 

the Gatineau Hills. 

It's dressing up... or down, to take 

in an opera or a ballet at the National 

Arts Centre, or casually sitting in 

the Studio enjoying theatre with a 

difference. 

It's the 'Joie de Vivre' of a 

Raftsmen's Festival where 

the legendary Jos Montferrand 

is host.

A POTENTIAL HOME REPAIR 

SERVICE: 

The federal government is attempting 

to encourage senior citizens 

to get actively involved in their 

communities through the New 

Horizons programme. Grants of 

money are given to a group of at 

least 10 senior citizens who put 

forward an idea for a project that 

would be of benefit to themselves 

and to others. 

Mr. D. Sharp is an 82-year old 

resident of the Glebe who has an 

excellent idea for such a New 

Horizons project. He is a retired 

plumber and is looking for other 

retired persons who have skills in 

carpentry, painting, plumbing, 

electrical work, and other related 

fields. He feels such people 

could get together to put their 

skills to work to help other senior 

citizens repair their homes. He is 

very anxious to get the project 

going. Anyone interested in working 

with him, or who could use 

the services the group could offer 

is asked to call Mr. Sharp at 236- 

4079 or leave a message at the 

Glebe Information Centre: 233- 

3300. 

GARDENS GROWING WELL 

Anyone who has passed by the 

Second Avenue and Lyon Street 

side of the community centre 

will see that the flowers in the 

little garden plots are doing well. 

Every Wednesday morning they 

are carefully tended by Miss 'M 

Mihie, Mrs. R. Mallory, Mrs. A 

Pratt, Mrs. R. Younger, Miss E. 

Price and Mr. G. Charlevoix. 

After the weeding and watering 

the gardeners have coffee and 

cookies. If you are walking by, 

stop and enjoy the flowers. 

Finger painting 

Here's something for long 

summer days. Below we've 

printed some recipes for 

finger paint and hints on how 

to do it. When you've 

finished your pictures, send 

us one (or all if you lilce) 

and we'll print some in the 

next issue. Hints to mothers - 

finger painting needn't be 

too messy - try it in the 

bathroom, or on the back 

or front porch. 

SUPPLIES 

Finger paint (see recipe below) 

Glossy or glazed paper 

Sponge 

Iron 

Plastic spray or shellac 

Water must be available in a 

sink or large container to soak 

the paper. 

PROCEDURE 

1. Soak the paper in water in 

any of the following ways, 

making sure both sides are 

thoroughly wet. 

put the paper under the tap in 

the sink, or 

roll the paper into a tube and 

submerge it in a container of 

water, or 

spread the paper al a table 

and soak it with sponge and 

water. The paper adheres more 

firmly to a surface if wet on 

both sides. 

2. Place the paper on a smooth 

flat surface. Do not place it 

Things to do 

too close to the edge of the 

table top as the paint might 

drip over.. Make sure the glossy 

side of the paper is up and all 

air bubbles and wrinkles are 

smoother out. Satisfactory 

finger paintings cannot be made 

on an uneven or unsteady 

surface. 

Place about one tablespoon of 

finger paint on the wet surface - 

if powdered finger paint is used 

sprinkle it lightly over the 

entire surface of the paper - 

more can be applied later if 

necessary. Paint applied too 

heavily will crack or chip off 

when dry. 

Spread the paint evenly 

over the entire surface of the 

paper with the palm of the hand 

or forearm to create the 

background of the finger painting. 

Varied movements of the 

hands and forearms in different 

positions will create interesting 

effects. The side of the hand 

when held rigid and pulled over th 

the paper makes long and delicate 

leaves. The same hand position 

moved in a zig-zag motion 

creates an altogether different 

effect. Experiment with a 

variety of hand and arm 

movements and positions. An 

infinite number of effects 

are possible by using the closed 

fist, bent fingers, open palm, 

heel of the hand, wrist etc. 

Other various effects are also 

possible if a comb, small 

notched piece of cardboard etc. 

are used. Areas of colour can 

also be cleaned away with a 

sponge. 


New beginnings can be made 

until the paper loses its gloss. 

Sprinkle a few drops of water on 

the paper if the paint becomes 

too sticky, to allow the hand or 

arms to slide easily over the 

paper. 

Spread newspaper on the 

floor in a little used area. Lift 

the finger painting by two 

corners and spread it on the 

newspaper. 

Allow the painting to dry. 

Press onnthe unpainted side 

with a hot iron. Spray with 

shellac or plastic spray. 

Recipe for finger paint: 

1 cup liquid starch 

6 cups water 

cup soap chips 

Dissolve the soap chips in water 

until no lumps remain, then mix 

well with starch and remaining 

water. 

Mix wheat paste (wallpaer 

paste) into cold or lukewarm 

water. Stir until smooth. Pour', 

into containers, one for each 

color, and stir in colour pigment. 

or: 

Small pieces of coloured chalk 

ground fine and added to paste 

of a smooth consistency makes 

an inexpensive finger paint. 

Paste: 

2 qts. boiling water 

12 tbsp. starch dissolved in cold 

water first. Mix, stir until 

thick, and pour into separate 

containers. Add the ground 

chalk and a few drops of oil of 

clove to prevent smell. Keep 

in cool place.

Champion soccer team? 

sports 


The Glebe seems to be 

harboring a champion soccer 

team. The Atoms (under 10 yrs) 

have had a gloriously 

successful season so far, winning 

all their six games and scoring 

a total of 43 goals while 

conceding only two. 

Details of the first three games 

were given in the last issue. 

Since then the Atoms have won 

a seond gam e against Manor 

Park 5-1, have trounced 

Rockcliffe 14-0 and have 

defeated the North Glouc ester 

Hornets again, this time 8-0. 

William McRae has been 

the top scorer, adding another 

11 goals. He's been ably 

backed up by Darryl Dempsey, 

John Kovach and a neat new 

player Richard Connell. Two 

defense men who have taken 

to moving up and joining 

the goal feast are Pierre 

Neatby and centrehalf Dan 

Sanger. 

The Atoms have reached the 

point when they need a tough 

game. In the Ottawa West 

division the Maple Leaf 

Clippers lie in wait and may 

indeed clip our team's wings 

in a play-off game. But in 

the meantime congratulations 

to all the players and to coach 

Bob McKinnell. 

Up one age group to the 

Mosquitoes who won a good 

game against Cours Claudel 

2-0 before losing to the Hornets 

0-5. Since Cours Claudel had 

disqualified itself from 

competitive Mosquito games 

at the Mart of the season by 

fielding over-age players, the 

Corpus Christi 

Corpus Christi school held its 

year end track meet with six events 

at Lansdowne Park. All girls and 

Joys entered the 100 and SO yd dash, 

standing and running broad jumps, 

high jump and ball throw. 

Winners were: 

Girls: peewee Janice Bryan 

bantam, Nancy EbrryhiLl 

midget, Mary Tubin with 

a perfect record of six firsts. 

Junior winner was Rose Bruno 

and Intermediate winner was 

Gillian Arlidge and Diane 

Levesque tied. Kathy Kerwin was 

the senior champion. 

Boys, peewee winner was Lorenzo 

Cacciato; bantam, Mark Shewchuk,

Dagenais teid; junior winner was 

Von-an Barton; intermediate Dan

KAREN FOURNIER, Mutchmor 

School, won the junior girls' 

220 yard sprint at the elementary 

schools track and foeld meet. 

Karen was also on the winning 

team at the junior grades 

play-day at Mutchmor. 

Glebe Mosquitos drew on a few 

Peewees for their encounter 

and this certainly helped 

towards victory. In the Hornets 

game we were only trailing 

0-1 at halftime but fell away 

in the second half. Frank

The Peewees maintain 

their position of third place

field meet was held at Mooney's 

Bay with Hopewell finishing 

seventh out of 22 schools.

got a fifth in the 60yd dash and 

Kim Boal a fbfth in the 100 yd dash 

and sisxth in the 220 yd dash.

Chris Nixon, Kim Mcmahon, Val

Roberto Delbello had a 

twinkling game against Manor 

Park adding three goals. But 

the day's discovery was a newcomer 

at outside right, Denis 

Goodxidge, who has come over 

fromBill's IGA where he 

played last year. 

The Bantams (l1,4 to 16 years) 

have still not settled down. 

After losing to the Hornets 

1-4 they pulled up against 

Manor Park 2-3 and then fell 

down aganist Alta Vista 

1-5. They would dp better to 

cut out recriminations against 

referees and among theitlysavfireu-c

survey 

How do disabled people get 

around ? What happens when 

they have to go to the doctor, 

or want to go shopping, or 

visit a friend, or a park ? 

A recent survey of more than 

5,000 disabled people in the 

Ottawa/Carleton area showed 

that less than one percent of 

them could use the public 

transportation system. 

Their dependence is emphasized 

by having to rely on friends, or 

taxis, to get around. 

A committee to act on these 

needs is conducting a survey of 

all permanently disabled people 

in the area. Its aim is to set up 

a special transportation system 

for the disabled. 

To do so it asks that a 

questionnaire be completed and 

returned to them before July 20 

The questionnaire may be 

obtained by filling out the 

accompanying coupon. 

The survey is called New Services 

for the Disabled and is being 

carried out with the support of 

the Committee for the Transportation 

of the disabled, which 

operates under an OFY grant. 

Earlier this year it sponsored a 

survey of present pransportation 

services for the disabled in 

the Ottawa/Carleton area. The 

survey was conducted by Prof. 

James Gripton of Carleton 

University and six graduate 

students from the School of 

Social Work. 

MAN 

AND HIS 

HOMEby Daniel J. Albert 

Question. My neighbour has 

installed a central air con - 

ditioning unit and he is very 

pleased with the results. My 

brother-in-law claims that 

he is achieving excellent results 

with an attic fan. My 

brother- in-law states that the 

attic fan installation cost him 

only one-twentieth that of 

central air conditioning and 

the cost of operation is negligible. 

For economic reasons 

we are inclined to install an 

attic fan. What is your opinion 

and tips for installation? 

Answer. Both installations 

will yield satisfaction. But 

to compare the benefits of 

one to the other is like comparing 

a wood stove with a 

central heating system. Both 

will heat, but to different 

degrees of efficiency. 

A central air conditioning 

unit will permit you to circulate 

air, refrigerate, dehumidify, 

humidify, filter dirt, 

dust and pollen in the house 

atmosphere. You can set and 

dial the weather and maintain 

exact temperature and humidity 

control in the home, 

completely independent of 

outside conditions. 

An attic fan, properly installed, 

will move stale hot 

air through the house to the 

attic where it will be discharged 

to the outside through 

louvres, dorm ers or other 

openings under the eaves, at 

the same time drawing cool 

Norman Spector 

air from the outside. These 

fans operate on the same 

principle as kithcen 

principle as kitchen exhaust 

fans. 

You should select the fan 

that can change the air in 

your home every two minutes. 

For example, if your home 

has a cubic area of 20, 000 

cubic feet, less closets, then 

you should select a fan having 

a capacity of 12, 000 cubic 

feet per minute. The additional 

2,000 cubic feet per 

minute capicity is the allowance 

to overcome static, 

friction, and other resistance 

to the movement of air. 

Question. We are always short 

of hot water in our home. We 

are a family of four two 

adults and two children-- 

with average requirements. 

Would you be able to tell us 

how much water we should 

use daily in performing such 

functions as bathing, washing 

dishes, prepaiing food etc. 

Answer. The typical hot 

water needs in a home are 

as follows: 

Automatic dish washer..... 7- 9 gal 

Automatic clothes washer..15- 30 

Shaving 

gal 

Daily hand washing 12-15 

Shampooing...............5 gal 

Showering............. 10-15 gal 

Tub bathing..............10-15 ga' 

Rinsing dishes . . .. 3 -5 gal 

Preparing food 

6 gal

HAVE YOU A SENSE OF HUMOUR? 

This is one of the many attributes you will find in a successful 

foster parent, and it can be a real asset, especially with a little 

girl like Deborah to look after. 

Deborah is 9 years old but looks much younger. She is a 

solid, chunky little tomboy with a mass of fair curls and a wide, 

friendly smile. She is an active little girl who enjoys outdoor 

games, but she is also a warm, affectionate child who needs a 

lot of loving and cuddling. 

Rector leaves St. Matthew's 

After nearly 22 years as 

rector of St. Matthew's Church, 

Bank and Carling, the Venerable 

Eric Osborne, Archdeacon of 

Ottawa, is retiring. After a 

special choral eucharist 

Sunday June 24 parishioners 

honoured him at an At Home 

where it was noted that 

during his tenure at St. 

Matthew's the Imo* of the 

parish have raised more than 

$14 million for various 

furposes. 

Mr. Osborne says St. 

Matthew's is in good 

spiritual health as well, 

noting the number of young 

N HA changes 

The amendments to the 

National Housing Act, given 

a third reading last week, could 

have a significant impact on 

community dvelopment. The 

new cooperative and nonprofit 

housing provisions should 

make communitii housing 

corporations much more 

effective than in the past. 

One hundred per cent loans, a 

ten percent of cost grant, and 

up to $10,000 in start-up 

funding is now available for 

the construction or acquisition 

of housing for low-income 

families.

an advocate of women's

of experimental liturgies 

in the church, he asks "After 

that, what do you do for an

will spend next year based in 

Montreal. He will be succeeded 

at St. Matthew's by the Rev.

of older residential areas. 

The Glebe as a whole will 

certainly not qualify: there 

are, however, sections of it 

which should benefit. 

The city will be required 

to designate the improvemert 

areas. As far as I am aware no 

action has been taken. This 

programme would benefit, among 

others, Centretwon, Sandy Hill, 

Mechanicsville and Dalhousie 

Ward. The city should 

announce the designated areas 

as soon as possible so that the 

citizen groups in these areas 

can organize to take advantage 

of the new programme.
