PAGE 10, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 18,1979, WHITBY FREE PRESS You don't have to be a law student or a lawyer to know about "Murphy's Law". I must admit I don't know who Murphy is, or was, but I'd like to since he virtually controls my life these days. I tell you Rodney Dangerfield's got nothin' on me when it comes to no respect. No respect is when you let your own dog out the door to have a you-know-what and he does it on the wheel of your very own car. But you know you couldn't win because if you didn't let him out he would have done it on your carpet. So you chew him out and try to sic him on your neighbour's car wheels and as soon as you have your back turned he...guess what? Wrong, he jumped into the front seat and ate the lunch I had just made and wrapped and put in the car in preparation of departing for work. I was tempted to loop his leash over the bumper and take him jogging at 100 kilos per but he'd have the last laugh because the Humane Society would get me in the end. F '-I The big difference between Dangerfield and myself is that his writers plan his life and Murphy plans mine. A recent escapade at the Civic Auditorium pool is a good example. I have been going there on Sundays for years, sometimes to teach scuba and sometimes just for a swim and a sauna. So a recent Sunday was no exception as I got fed up with the cold weather and decided to slip over to the Civic for a swim and a sauna. I arrived late and none of my fellow club members were around as I hurried down the stairs to the pool and swished past the girl in the ticket booth, her head down reading something. There was nobody in the change room but hooks were full of clothing which was my proof that many of my fellow club members were out enjoying a swim. As I undressed I noticed one guy's coat hanging near me and mentally wondered what kind of guy would buy a coat like that but then there's no accounting for taste. Since I wanted a sauna first I dispensed with the bathing suit and zipped into an empty sauna. It was great! It felt like there hadn't been anybody in for a while because it was lovely and hot and I stretched out and let the heat do it's work. After about ten minutes I zipped out to the shower since I still felt a little greasy I didn't put my swim suit on but again headed for the sauna. Through the'thick walls I could barely hear fellow club members splashing around and obviously enjoying the pool on a cold winter day. Another ten or fifteen minutes went by and, although I was surprised, I was still the only one to use the sauna it was nice to have the heat and hÛmidity all to myself. Knowing Murphy was with me all the while I was careful not to fail asleep or trip into the sauna heater and eventually, being careful not to slip on a piece of soap, made my way to the shower for another scrub. On completion I zipped on my bathing suit and started out the door of the shower leading to the pool. As I got to the pool door I noticed it said "Ladies" and I was amused to think one of the club members had switched signs. I knew it was the men's because I have been going to the Civic for years. I could hear Murphy laughing. A nagging suspicion led me back through the showers to the change room. I had another look at the weird coat and hanging with it was a bra - a "lady's" bra! Murphy was screaming hysterically now. In a dead panic, I grabbed all my clothes, soap, shampoo, and tore out of the door leading to the ticket booth and in the process collided with a lady in-bound, dropping part of my posessions - one unmentionable - right there on the floor. I mumbled something about it being a nice day for a sauna and tore into what used to be the ladies change room. Completely in a panic now and nearing a cardiac I frantically looked aroung for any bras and only calmed down when two guys wandered into the change room. I yelled, "Boy is it ever great to see you guys!" They didn't reply, but did look at me kind of funny because I didn't know either of them and they were now convinced they knew what kind of guy I was. Eventually I got my swim and calmed down after thinking what might have happened if one of the ladies had decided to take a sauna. I also found out the Civic did switch the change rooms but haven't bothered to inquire why because they would probable show me a work order signed by some supervisor named "Murphy". So Rodney Dangerfield, if you're reading this don't tell me about "no respect", you should live my life! Girls await sentence for attack on house Chevrolet's Front Wheel Drive 1980 CITATION Two teen-aged Whitby girls who carried out an attack on a house with knives and a third girl who wrote a threatening letter to confuse police have· been remanded out of custody while a report is prepared to assist a pro- vincial court judge in deter- mining their punishment. Cheryl Ann Fergus, 17, of 315 Colborne Street East and Cathy Vanessen, 16, of 709 King Street are convicted of breaking and entering, and Sandra Louise Strong, 16, of 102 Byron Street South is convicted of threatening injury. They have been remanded for sentencing to April 20. The court was told that Fergus and Vanessen broke, into a home on Brock Street on Jan. 5 and using knives, slashed curtains, wallpaper and furniture, causing a total of $3,295 damage throughout the various rooms of the house. Fergus told police she did not know why they had broken in and vandalized the home, but stated that Vanessen did not like the man and woman who lived there. Vanessen told police that the couple had "threatened" the girls. The court was also told, that before Fergus wen police to confess Strong wrote a threatening letter to the occupants of the vanda- lized house to divert suspi- cion from her friends.
