Visual Arts' Centre By William Humber Notes on Newcastle - 1 Tbe Visual Arts Centre's neigbbours in tbe Cream of. Barley Mill opened tbeir season recently reminding ahl tbat summer bas at last returned. On first glance it p robably seems strange tbat a basebail team, tbe Bowmanvilie Mercbants, and an arts centre operate out of tbe same building. Yet sucb a bappenstance is not as odd as it migbt seem. Basebail bas a long istory, in these parts. Tbe Guelpb Mapie Leafs, one of tbe most noted teams in Canadian basebalistory defeated tbe Bowmanville Royal Oaks 12-4 wben tbey visited town on July 13, 1875. Guelpb bad won'tbe world's amateur cbampionsbip tbe previous year and were at tbe peak of tbeir fame. One of tbe Guelpb f layers, Cbarlie Maddock, ater managed tbe Toronto International League team. Anotber player pitcber Billy Smitb wouid as tbe saying goes "bave a cup of coffee" in tbe major leagues a few years later. A number of local boys became weil known beyond their immediate sandlots. William Tamblyn a -noted scbolar and teacber is said to SAUMM SAVENPE * FOR A I 1517 DUNDAS ST E Te lephone Toda Prompt, Court have cut short is boneymoon and returned bome to lead tbe Newcastle Beavers to victory. Wyman Andrus of Orono played professional basebal in places sucb as Minneapolis, St. Louis, and Kansas City to put bimself tbrougb medical college. Local fairs in tbose days were not complete witbout a basebail tournament. At tbe 1903 fair in Orono, Kendal defeated teams - from Newcastle, Newtonville and Orono, tbus winning a $25. prize. It was tainted somewbat bowever as Kendai was accused of importing tbeir pitcber from Peterborough. Most of tbe basebal beritage of tbis area is of course not recorded. In tbe back of tbeir memories oldtimers recall sandlot encounters in a farmer's field or a village lot. A primitivist artist in New York, Raipb Fasenella bas attempted- to capture tbis side of basebail in bis art. "To me", says Fasenella, "1tbere's a purity in basebail. In my painting, Sunday Afternoon, I sbow you tbat mnood in tbe street, dlean,, bealtby, fresb. They bave a soft rubber bahl and a broomstick. Basebali doesn't SA VE IE FOR HEATING IUM QUALITY FUELUN L YOUR M L NEEDS r. EAST WH ITBY ayl Cail Collect 3381- teous Service just bave to be in a stadium." Fasenella tbe artist understands tbe deptb of basebaîl and bow it connects to bis own work. "Now you watcb a kid playing bail, even before be gets to be all tbat good be'll get a style, grab tbe way a pitcher stands, a certain batter, a certain guy's style of running, standing at tbe plate. A lot of style in tbe game. Maybe tbey don't know it, but tbey're grabbing for tbe poetry of tbe game. " It is still tbe same game no matter wbere it is piayed as tbis account from a game in Victoria County 50 years ago proves. "One news lipping tells of a Juiy Sinday at King's Wharf wben tbe boys played i Sullivan's cow pasture, dispensing witb an umpiré and with oniy a sbadowy knowledge of tbe ruies. It was a long drawn out' affair ... tbe lads didn't quit fill twas milking time . . . a wbale of a good time by ail on tbe one day tbey bad off in a week." Tbe teams from Little Britain, Kendai, Newcastle and elsewbere are once again back for anotber season in the Soper Creek Park. It is a reminder of baseball's origins in a game called townball wbicb emerged out of early nineteentb century village rivalry as tbe participants sbaped Englisb rounders into a unique American sport. It is also a reminder tbat art as Ralpb Faseneila knows is found in many forms and unexnected settings. BUSINESS DIRECTORY Accou ntancy, WILLIAM C. HALL Be. Comm.

Before 1975,, board psycbologist Ray Partbun told tbe Newcastle-Newtonville Parent Advisory Group last Tuesday, scbools farmed out wbatever work bad to be done witb cbiidren witb special needs to bospîtals sucb as Witby Psycbiatric and Peterborougb Civic. Tbere was always a tremendous waiting list and tbis prompted tbe board to institute its own special services for tbese cbildren. Tbere are a lot of cbildren wbo are not able to cope witb portions of tbe school program and it is up to tbe board's psycbological services to etermine wby and wbat can be done to belp tbe cbild. Tbe cbild is assessed in tbe school "to see wbat kind of walls be is trying to climb and not quite making it. " Parents and teacbers are also consulted. Dr. PartbUn said tbat since 1975 be and bis staff bave done rougbly 3,000 diagnostic assessments. Parents Involved Parents, of course, must give tbeir consent before an assessment of their cbild can be done. "You can't do too mucb if tbe parents don't want it or aren't co-operative. We involve tbe Parents as mucb as possible." Partun said be finds most cbildren be assesses bave mild learning disabilities and "ltbey sbould be bandled in tbeir own regular classroom witb tbeir own friends. " There are not many we recommend for segregated programs and we rarely find cbildren wbo are mentally retarded. Plan Program Once tbe assessment is compieted, explained Dr. Partbun, itinerant teacbers take tbings we say, sit down witb tbe classroom teacber and plan a program for the child. Tbe regular teacber is assisted ail along by remedial and resource staff. bilidren witb severe problems are, put into special classes of not more tban eigbt students. Tbe teacher or principal alone does not bave the rigbt to place a child in one of these special programs. A committee of the board meets to decide if such a step is necessary. Parents are at al times consulted. Yearly Review In addition, tbe board provides a committee which reviews every cbild involved in a special needs program once a year. Psychological services staff also try to re- visit eacb cbildtbat bas been assessed some time during the year to measure bis or ber progress. Dr. Partbun maintains that if some children are helped earlier in their education, it would probably cut down on problems experipeced in secondary scbool. And, helping tbem at tbe elementary level is a lot less costly tban doing so at tbe secondary level or beyond. Tbis was the last meeting of tbe Newcastle-Newtonville Parent Advisory Group tbis year. 77 King Street East, Bowmanville Values- Effective at Bowmn ville 'Store Only yeu're whistling in the dark. ..if you haven't had your blood pressure checked Iately.
