YT SRY Tm mT Re TT Re ee ETT 2 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, May 16, 1989 + as A lucky guy Lance Peters has got to be one of the luckiest 13 year olds in Scugog. A fortunate fisherman, he landed the sec- ond biggest fish In an Orillia perch derby and came home with many prizes, Including his fishing vest, a tackle box, and a $700 shopping spree. See story for detalls. © What does a kid with $700 to go shopping with buy? In Lance Peters' case, the an- swer won't be $700 worth of can- dy. No, the 13 year old Port Perry teenager wants to buy himself a keybord. A sensible idea, since he is already well versed in mu- sic. Now, how does a 13 year old obtain a $700 shopping spree? Easy, Lance won the spree for catching - the second biggest perch at the annual Orillia Business Improvement Associ- ation Perch Derby, held over two weeks recently. Lance, his brothers and his father went to Orillia with a few Port Perry friends for a day of fishing on April 29. The weath- er was cold and miserable, and the fishermen were just about to pack everything in at 4:16 p.m. when Lance hooked a 520 gram perch using a live minnow on a hook. "When I pulled it up, I thought I had won something," he told the Star. But he didn't really think he would win gec- Implemented October 10 7th ANNUAL ARENA LIMINATION DRAW «« DANCE ond prize. His fish was only 10 grams lighter than the first prize win- ner in the children's category-- that youngster won a $1,000 shopping spree. } Lance has been fishing all his life, but the Orillia derby was only his second contest. The first was a few years ago in Port . Perry at the Bass Derby. Now that he's got the knack of winning, you can bet your best lure that Lance will be out there . in July, trying to catch the: biggest bass in town. Toll free dialing reality from Blackstock area to Oshawa Toll free dialing to Oshawa for homes and businesses in the 986 exchange will become a re- ality later this fall. Bell Canada announced last week that a recent survey of the 1600 customers in the 986 exchange, 83 per cent were in favour of toll free dialing to Oshawa. Orma Lyttle, Business Of- fice Section Manager with Bell said the Blackstock exchange (986) now meets all the criteria set down by the federal CRTC. These include distance (within 40 miles of Oshawa) and the fact that more than 60 per cent of phone customers call Oshawa at least once a month. And the survey indicated that a vaast majority of customers want the toll free service. Mrs. Lyttle said the CRTC must still give the formal ap- proval, but she anticipates no problem for Bell in getting this. Int fact, Bell has already set October 10 as the date for imple- (for last ticket drawn) %5,000. in PRIZES to be WON Grand Prize *4,000.

Sponsored by the SCUGOG ARENA BOARD FEELERS ITs rr inn SPECIAL OCCASION PERMIT menting the service for 986 cus- tomers. It also means that calls can be placed from Oshawa to 986 numbers without long dis- tance charges. There have been several petitions over the last few years requesting toll free service be- tween the Blackstock exchange and Oshawa. Mrs. Lyttle said one of the roadblocks had been the CRTC criteria that the two exchanges be contiguous. Four years ago, Bell asked the CRTC to drop this requirement that the 986 area physically touch the Oshawa exchanges. Once the toll free service is in place in October, 986 sub- scribers will see an increase in their monthly phone bill. For residential customers, the basic service fee will go up from $7.10- to $8.74, and for business subscribers, the basic "monthly rate will jump from $19 to $29.10.
